Spinal Cord Injuries (lepays.fr, 12 Mar 2012)

Origin of Impairment
Acquired (lepays.fr, 12 Mar 2012)

Impairment Details
He has paraplegia after an artery in his spinal column became blocked at age 14. (lepays.fr, 12 Mar 2012; Athlete, 20 Aug 2018)

General
GO-KARTING
He has long been a fan of motorsport and in 2020 competed in his first go-karting competition in a kart that was adapted to suit his impairment. "At the moment, it's mostly a hobby. I've always been passionate about motorsport. It's hard to reconcile the two disciplines [Para athletics and go-karting]. Karting is also very physical. There are the two-speed DD2 models, the K2, with a gearbox. Mine is equipped with a speed dimmer. I do the basics [mechanical repairs] but the big engine revisions are done by a professional. In athletics, I am one of the best in the world. Here I am a nobody." (estrepublicain.fr, 01 Mar 2021)
