“Now we fight for the same thinܫgs and there is more rivalry, but the relationship is one of respect and admiration, because he has done incredible things."

After missing out on the 2023 championship on the final day, Martin is well-placed to go one 👍better this year.

"Th𓃲ere's still a long way to go, I don't think about it now,” he said.

“I always give 100%,ꦯ sometimes I'm stronger and other times less. My goal is al🍷ways to do my best.

“I want to make the most of every moment and have fun𒐪, not just think about the final v🔴ictory.

“If at the end of the year there will obviously be the possಞibility of trying to win the world championship, but now I'm not thinking about it."
