AX MAGAZINE ITALIA presents Dustin's overview of his debut season in the European autocross championship. Dustin also revealed some interesting news about plans for the upcoming season. Read below to find out more!

"This season was my first in the European Autocross Championship. Everything was new for us—the LifeLive Cross Car, the routes, and even the team. It was a very big challenge. We faced very difficult races, such as those in Bauska, Nova Paka, and St. Igny de Vers. I often made mistakes during qualifying, which left me with limited opportunities to overtake during the races. Additionally, we frequently encountered technical problems and crashes.

The most successful race for me was my home race at Matschenberg, where I achieved a 7th-place finish. I was very happy with the result. Nevertheless, I still have a lot to learn to match the speed of the top drivers. Consistency was another issue, as I struggled to maintain speed across multiple races in a row.

However, we learned a lot from the negative moments and are hopeful for a successful 2025. We have purchased a new Camotos Rapace for the upcoming season, and my personal goal is to reach the finals in all races."

We wish Dustin great success in the upcoming season!
