The 16 year old from Saarbruecken in Saarland, West Germany initially considered the DEKM for a new racing challenge, having made the switch from motocross to karting some time before.
“At the end of 2017, I saw an article about this new DEKM championship and wanted to do something different, so it was a perfect new challenge when all drivers have the same karts.”
Of course, with the introduction of a completely alternate way of karting and the unknown of what was to be expected with electric powered technology in racing today, it was going to involve making the transition to a totally different type of race package and style of driving.
