my journey
in the world of motorsport
Hover on the logos to see my journey
McLaren
During the COVID-19 period, I competed with the McLaren team in the GT Open European Championship. It was a unique experience during a challenging time, but I was able to perform well even under those conditions.
how it all began : karting

My passion for racing began when I was just 5 years old, driving a go-kart for the very first time.
I come from a typical household, but I grew up surrounded by a love for cars. As a kid, I played with toy cars and, metaphorically speaking, fueled my mornings with tire rubber and racing fuel.
Formula BMW Talent Cup 2013
I was selected from a pool of around 300 applicants to join an elite group of 11 drivers from around the world in the official 'Formula BMW Talent Cup 2013' program, created by BMW to train young drivers to become future Formula 1 stars. Through this program, I learned the essential fundamentals of becoming a professional racing driver.
Formula 4 FIA 2014-15
I competed in the Formula 4 FIA Championship, where my father and I made history by founding IsraelF4, the first-ever Israeli racing team.
I raced in the championship during 2014-2015, gaining valuable experience and securing several podium finishes.
Lamborghini
While competing in the Formula 4 Championship, I had the opportunity to participate in a test race with the Lamborghini team in GT Cup cars. Despite having no preparation, I won the race.
In 2016, I was signed by Lamborghini Squadra Corsa as an official racing driver in their Young Drivers Program. I competed in the Super GT Cup in Italy with the Lamborghini VSR team.
A year later, I advanced to the extreme GT3 cars, marking my first season in the prestigious ACI GT3 Championship, driving for the Petri Corsa Lamborghini team.
Manhart
Manhart BMW Tuning Company selected me as a development driver for the BMW MH2-630 at the Nürburgring track. In this role, I provided insights and suggestions for the necessary improvements to enhance the Nordschleife track record.
Audi Sport
Official Audi Sport signed me as a lead driver for their team in the ACI GT3 Championship, where I broke Audi's long winning streak with 4 wins, 4 third-place finishes, and secured third place overall for the entire season.
I became the Audi Sport brand ambassador and presenter in Israel for Champion Motors, the official Audi importer in the country.
I secured 2nd position for Audi Sport Italia in the Italian Time Attack at Adria International Raceway.
Mercedes-Benz AMG
I drove with Antonelli Motorsport, one of the top Mercedes AMG GT3 teams in the world, in the ACI GT3 Championship, where I secured 2 victories and a 3rd place finish for Mercedes AMG.
It was a very challenging season, with no training or practice. My team and I managed to achieve the 501st overall worldwide win for AMG, just minutes after a German team celebrated their 500th AMGs overall victory.
