This was my first-ever experience at a WEC event — and it was beyond anything I could have imagined.

Imola welcomed us with perfect spring weather, the unmistakable Italian atmosphere, and a race weekend I’ll never forget. The scale, the energy, the sound — everything felt larger than life.

As accredited media, I had full access to the paddock, pit lane, starting grid, and trackside areas. The hospitality was on another level — beautifully structured, spacious, and professionally run. I had never seen anything like it.

The hypercars were breathtaking. Their design, power, and sound left me speechless. I had never seen machines like this up close — they looked like something out of science fiction, yet here they were, flying past me on track.

And then came the final moments: Ferrari took the win, and the crowd went wild. It wasn’t just cheering — it was passion, pride, and pure love. I understood, in that moment, what Ferrari means to people. It gave me goosebumps.

Imola didn’t just impress me — it stunned me. This wasn’t just a race. It was an experience.
