This season, the competitor has a full schedule combining a series of categories. In addition to being part of the Williams Driver Academy, he also represents Alpine in the WEC, where he is active with the Hypercars. In Montreal, he was the reserve for the British F1 team and also takes on the role in Monaco and Barcelona.
So, last weekend, Martin spoke about the participation of the Red Bull four-time world champion at Nürburgring. “I think you can see the passion he has for motorsport. He just wants to be everywhere.

Martins also highlighted that he has a similar attitude to the multi-champion of F1. “When I dedicate myself to it, wherever I go, with any different car I drive: I just enjoy it and put on a big smile. So, anything I can drive, I will do. If I have the chance to race the 24 Hours of Nürburgring or the 24 Hours of Daytona, for example, I will definitely do it,” he continued.
