“I’ve always believed that you should never, ever give up and you should always keep fighting even when there’s only the slightest chance.”
Michael Schumacher
This mindset didn’t just define my early years in motorsport—it became the driving force behind everything We’ve built since. After stepping out of the kart and off the track, that same relentless spirit fueled my mission to create something bigger: a performance system that would empower others to chase excellence with the same intensity.
From a young age, I was drawn to motorsport—not just for the speed, but for the discipline, focus, and resilience it demanded. My early experiences in karting laid the foundation for a lifelong passion for performance development in high-stakes environments.
After graduating from the University of Physical Education in Budapest, I founded Fit4Race more than 16 years ago with a single mission: to bring science-based, athlete-centered performance solutions into the heart of motorsport and elite sport.
Today, as the CEO of Fit4Race, I lead a multidisciplinary team that supports Olympic medalists, World and European Champions, and high-performing individuals across motorsport, team sports, and corporate environments. Our work extends across CIK-FIA, FIA-ERC,Formula Categories as well as national federations and professional teams in football, water polo, ice hockey, and beyond.
I am passionate about combining scientific research, applied coaching, and long-term athlete development to help individuals and teams perform at their absolute best—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
As a frequent speaker at professional conferences and industry events, I enjoy sharing insights and best practices with fellow coaches, practitioners, and leaders in Motorsports and performance science.
For me, every individual—whether an elite athlete or someone navigating the pressures of everyday life—has the capacity for greatness. My role is to help them unlock it.
