2022
Positive weekend in Valencia. Since practice on Wednesday we had very good speed. On Sunday Pre final running P6 in the final lap we got crashed into and couldn’t finish, so that just gave us a bad starting place for the final. In the positive side it was amazing to work in such a nice group of people. We showed our strong pace and learnt lots! Thanks a lot to Kevin Beaumont @kbk_competition @freddy.martins.gokart @julienvdr17 @pasquale198 for helping me improve session by session. Good preparation for 2023!!

A weekeng to forget overall, or maybe learn a few things. After not having race pace on saturday, he managed to put the car in front on sunday, but two corners before the end, a mistake from his side took him out of the podium. Both Rounds at the end were so complicate. No good enough pace, lot of grip. At the end, not the results he was expecting. A step back to analyze all the experience and look forward next race.
