Cognitive Development (2019 – Now)

Speed Cubing

  • Consistently solving the Rubik's Cube in under 15 seconds

The Beginning

Where It All Began

At 11 years old a friend invited me to an indoor karting session. From the very first lap I felt something different. I felt a connection with the machine. I felt control and concentration I had never experienced before.

It was the moment I understood this was my path. That day changed my direction.

I Started Late. I Progressed Fast.

Most professional drivers start at 5 or 6 years old. I started at 11. In motorsport, that is late. That is why my approach was professionally focused from the very beginning.

More Than A Driver

Technical Thinking & Personal Sacrifice

During my karting career I was not only a driver.

  • I worked as a mechanic during my training sessions
  • I was a mechanic for other drivers
  • I maintained and cleaned the team's karts
  • I analysed telemetry

I did this for two reasons:

1

To understand the machine in depth

2

To help financially with continuing my career

From the very beginning, this has been a project built through hard work.

Transition To Cars

What I Did In 2025

In 2025 the transition to cars became a reality.

Formula 4 Tests

Car: Tatuus F4 T014

Circuits:

  • • Autodromo dell'Umbria Magione
  • • Circuit de Croix en Ternois

Ferrari GT Cup Tests

Car: Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo

Circuit:

  • • Autodromo di Cremona

Preparation in two completely different categories means adapting to entirely different technologies. This accelerates my development.
