TO THE GRID
A BIRTHDAY GIFT THAT
CHANGED EVERYTHING
At 12, Victor received a racing course from his father. One lap was all it took. Before that, he was a competitive dancer. After that single session behind the wheel, he knew racing was his destiny. By 13, he became the youngest pilot in Romanian Retro Racing history.

FROM DANCE FLOOR TO TRACK
Victor's competitive dance training until age 13 gave him exceptional body coordination and rhythm—skills that translate directly to precise car control.
