Racing since I was five.

On track

I grew up in Manacor, on Mallorca, and won my first titles on the island’s karting tracks before racing around Spain and Europe. I moved up to cars at 14 and single-seaters at 15. In 2026 I won my first Italian F4 races, one of them at Imola. I wanted Formula 1 when I was five, and I still want it now.

Off track

I’m Spanish and British, and home is Manacor. Before I get in the car I warm up with tennis balls and a reaction trainer, and between sessions there’s usually a football somewhere nearby. My helmet carries both flags, the Union flag on top and Spain’s colours down the sides.

Imola · 5 September 2026

One perfect Saturday.

I started from pole at the circuit where Senna and Schumacher won, set the fastest lap of the race and took the flag first. Then came the champagne.
