“This opportunity has come my way with Dynavolt Intact GP. After becoming world ꦕchampions 𒐪this year, they are clearly a successful team.

“I can't wait to get started and get used to the new bike. The main goal is to be as comp༺etitive as possible from the first races. I will certainly learn a lot from last year's world champion Hector Garzo, who has already been my team-mate in the past.

“My aim is to keep improving and to be faster every time I go out on the track. ⛎I'm very motivated for this new challenge.”
