Ride London at the weekend, first half was fun the other not so much, second pic is exactly how I felt for most of the second half of this ride 😂😵‍💫 165km in the books.

Though race for us yesterday, tricky start for me from 9th place, struggle to make progress on my first stint, second stint was much better but we were already on the back foot, still managed to get some points and crossed the line in P8. Now we work for the next round in Imola in July.

All set for tomorrow’s race, I’ll be taking the start at 11:30 (CEST) from 9th place on the grid. Some work to do and ready for a good fight 🙌🏽

P5 in Barcelona ☀️ that was quite the race, started really well with a good start from myself, then I had to avoid a car that had spun right in front of me, from then on we recovered well but still fell short of a top 3. Really happy with the work from all the team. Now we go onto Paul Ricard. ✌️

Two days off after the prologue and now all set for the race weekend.

New threads 😮‍💨🐆 good two days of prologue done now. Time to analyse all the data collected and get ready for the first round of the season.

I’m pleased to be returning to the ELMS in the LMP2 class with Panis Racing. We will have all we need to be competitive and in a fantastic position to fight for the championship with my new teammates Charles and Arthur. Following a successful season with Panis Racing in 2023, I’m prepared to set the bar higher this year; our goal is to win the championship.

2023 season in numbers. I’m grateful to everyone who played a role in my journey. Thanks for making it a blast! Here’s to more success and unforgettable moments in 2024. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!

🚴🏽Cycling on the Thermal club race track around Coachella Valley. What a place!

Took on a different kind of race, Ironman 70.3 Indian wells - What an unbelievable experience in Southern California. I’ve been prepping for a few months and I’m really happy with my first attempt. As always, excited to improve. The swim was good, it’s the discipline I’ve had to work the hardest on. The bike was where I felt I could have some fun and put down some watts. Settling into the run was quite painful for the first 5km, which was expected. But trusting my training, I was able to achieve negative splits. Crossed the finish line with a time of 5:49.

🏊🏽‍♂️ 1.9km 42:49 (2:14/100m)
🚴🏽 90km 2:58:47 (30.3 kmph)
🏃🏽 21km 1:57:39 (5:35/km)

Dad was there as support crew! Thanks to for the prep, specifically .brown24 and for the training and nutrition plan. Now it’s time to rest for a bit and start planning next year.

3rd place in The European Le Mans Series! Thank you to everyone involved this season, it’s been an awesome year with all its ups and downs, but a special thanks to Panis racing who welcomed me to the family at the start of the year.

My teammates, Job and Tijmen, thank you for giving it your all to maximise my own and eachothers potential.

Time to rest and start working on 2024. See you all soon, it has been a pleasure.

P6 today in todays race, a very unfortunate race for us as we were leading and looking very good up until one of our tyres delaminated which made us do an extra pit stop, from this point on our race was compromised. We now analyse everything and focus on the next round in Aragon. Thanks to everyone for all their hard work this weekend
