Patrick & Patricia.

We are Patrick and Patricia Piza de Toledo. Married and inseparable, in everyday life and on the road. We both work, and share our free time with a love of cars and the Nordschleife.

Patrick was born in Munich, grew up in São Paulo and returned to Germany in 2012. Patricia was born and raised in Bavaria. Bavaria is home. The Nürburgring was love at first lap, and is now an essential part of life for both of us.

Ricardo de Lorenzo

Where the passion began.

Patrick’s love of cars and motorsport began during his childhood in Brazil. His stepfather Ricardo de Lorenzo, whose team competed in Brazilian Stock Car racing, inspired that passion. Ricardo was more than a father to Patrick, and this shared love of motorsport remains part of the roots of Paddis World.
