Been playing with toy cars before he starts walking, talks about cars more than anything else and values different driving characteristics of different cars, he made a sideways jump to auto journalism into a motoring newspaper for a short stint before joining a digital publication. An ideal automobile for him is not an 8.0-litre twin-turbocharged all-wheel-drive hypercar, but a machine that contain the balance between mass and power, partnered with a responsive engine and minimal driving assists.
