It is simracing that got me into racing. Of course, I loved to watch races on TV when I was a kid, but I had no idea how to get there. Later when I was in high school I started simracing on a national level at later international races. This was between 2001 and 2005. Later I received an opportunity to test a real race car because of my success in simracing in 2005 and that is how I started real racing. I started truck racing in 2011 because there was a Hungarian team in the European Championship and they were looking for a driver so I took the opportunity.

This year I just started our new campaign with our new team Révész TRT in the FIA European Truck Racing Championship and the goal is to constantly improve together with the team and hopefully win the overall championship in these coming years.

In our calendar it is Le Mans. We race on the Bugatti circuit just like the MotoGP and I think this is a legendary place and a really nice flowing smooth circuit. I love to be there every season.

I love how realistic you make your gear at home now with all of the NLR products. With the surrounding screens and seating position and everything, you can make a rig that is very-very realistic so it is always great to sit in and drive at home. And driving a simulator is a great thing and not to be underrated. I think it can hugely help you develop yourself as a driver mentally for sure and maybe even physically as well with some of the newer and more expensive direct drive wheels. Develops focus, hand-eye coordination and what is also very important is when you race against real people in multiplayer it develops your racecraft. And it is much cheaper than real racing :)
