Debut:

Turned professional in 2018

Reason:

His father encouraged him to take up the sport. He was involved in mountain biking before he started focusing on road cycling. "I was just born to be a cyclist. I still tried many sports before and next to cycling, but cycling always was the priority and my father would take care of my training. I felt competitive quite early but it was only [in about 2017] that I realised it could really be my job." (equipecycliste-groupama-fdj.fr, 05 Mar 2021)

General
CYCLING IN HUNGARY
There were few other cyclists for him to look up to as he was growing up in Hungary, but he believes the sport is becoming more popular there. "We're more of a football country, even though we almost have no footballers at the highest level. In recent years, I think the cycling community has been growing a lot. The Tour of Hungary is now a very well known race here. Most people have at least heard about it because it was all over the news. That being said, people start to follow me as well as my results. The base gets bigger. I also like to think that I help cycling grow. It's important for me as, growing up, I always thought it did not get the attention it deserved."
