Everything with four wheels has excited me since I can remember. I remember sitting on Sunday afternoons with my father to watch the Formula 1 Grand Prix and see the beautiful battles that Fernando Alonso had with Michael Schumacher or Kimi Räikkönen. Back then, I never thought I would reach a Formula 1 paddock. Being able to sink my teeth into it from the inside made me discover that what captivated me since I was little was even better than I thought. Little by little, my passion for the top category led to a great interest in its lower categories. Getting to know the drivers who reach Formula 1 from below, going through Formula 4, regional formulas, Formula 3, and Formula 2. Also, I always have an eye on IndyCar.

Since then, my vocation has become to cover everything surrounding motorsport from 2018 onwards. The opportunity came with VAVEL, along with my first accreditations and experiences close to the Grand Circus. Later, my journey continued with MotorTime and FormulaRapida, where I kept gaining experience and developing my skills. The next step in my short but frantic career has come with Motor.es, bringing the excitement of being able to continue living my dream day by day.

Ross Brawn once said, "Luck is preparation waiting for an opportunity," and that is what I pursue.

Ah, I also have a great passion for Arsenal FC, but that’s for later...
