What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

He loves the technology and challenges of driving at 80 mph with laser focus around the most technical tracks in the USA and internationally. He loves improving his speed and cornering techniques .


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

Lewis Hamilton 7 time F1 world champion has been his role model because of his ability to balance life on and off the track and also opening the doors for kids that look like himself.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

My proudest moment was in the Netherlands, when Yamori had to race through almost 2inch of standing water and heavy rain in 48 degrees. He was wet cold and couldn't feel his hands or feet but he never gave up and took 1st place in that race. He understood the money and time spent to make that opportunity happen.
