Elkin
My name is Ariel Elkin
The Driver I am
I am a professional racing driver from Israel, flying worldwide to race against the best-known drivers around the globe. I am considered the best karting driver in Israel’s history.
After becoming the Italian Karting champion, I am stepping up to Formula 4, on my way to the top of motorsport, Formula 1.
The Person I am
I am a 16-year-old student at the Hebrew Reali School in Haifa, Israel.
5 is the number of languages I speak, and in my free time, I coach young drivers to help them progress. Also, I am considered a role model to many young Israeli people.
Racing Is My Passion
Performance
Since childhood, I have been a competitive person. I like to participate in challenges, and while everyone else panics, I use my focus and my mental skills in order to win.
Technology
Tech is an important part of racing, in order to get the best out of our cars we have many mechanics and engineers who must cooperate and work together in order to succeed.
Business
One of the most important things in life and especially in racing is building communication skills, friendships, and being able to generate networks of support.
Mental Performance is My Advantage
Focus and Professionalism are My Tools
The key to keeping high performance under pressure is to have the ability to focus better than the rest of the competitors. This is the biggest difference between the good and the best.
FOCUS
Is the key to"The Zone" of peak performance
Professionalism
Is the key to calmness, learning, and growth under pressure.
Nobody can succeed without two key things: teamwork and professionalism. My target is to be as professional as I could ever be, in order to sharpen everything and bring it to a perfect state.
