Albert delves into his creative process for developing unique experiments and explainer videos, aimed at helping fans grasp the complex technical aspects of motorsport. His passion for making the sport accessible and engaging shines through as he discusses the importance of these educational initiatives.


Growing up without a family background in motorsport, Albert cultivated his love for the sport independently. He reflects on this personal journey and how it has shaped his career and dedication to motorsport.

Albert’s love for rally cars is another focal point of the conversation, as he explains how rally racing offers a different kind of thrill compared to track racing in F1. His enthusiasm for diverse forms of motorsport is infectious and adds depth to his expertise.
