On the entire race car, there are only these few logos, and compared to other F2 cars, Qin Miao’s car really is spotless.
Feeling a bit excited, he reached out to gently stroke the paint on his car, feeling the smooth texture from the paint, and Qin Miao’s heart began to thrill uncontrollably.
Although Qin Miao had driven F2 before, that car wasn’t his, and no matter how good his relationship was with Zhou Guanyu, Qin Miao wouldn’t dare take Zhou Guanyu’s car onto the track and drive as he pleased.
This was one of the concerns about stepping on the accelerator, but the source of this concern was not money, but people.
But now is different from the past; the car in front of him completely belongs to Qin Miao, and it’s even the one Qin Miao bought himself. Moreover, Qin Miao’s savings are enough for him to buy seven or eight more such F2 cars, so on the track, Qin Miao dares to push the car to the limit without fearing a crash.
And the moment Qin Miao’s hand touched the car, he immediately placed a purple Man and Car Unity Skill Card onto the car in front of him.
Originally, in Qin Miao’s eyes, this car was just a big toy filled with the unknown and novelty.
But with the use of the Skill Card, Qin Miao instantly felt a sense of intimacy with this seemingly plain F2 car before him.
Moreover, Qin Miao believed that after sitting in this car, the sense of intimacy and familiarity would be even stronger than it felt now.
With this feeling, Qin Miao couldn’t wait to turn around and ask Roxin, who was smiling broadly at him: "Sir, when can I try this car?"
Upon hearing Qin Miao’s question, Roxin was taken aback. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel⦿fire.net
Though he was very pleased with Qin Miao’s passion for racing cars, he still hesitated to throw cold water on Qin Miao: "I’m afraid it won’t be possible in the short term. This car has been with us for less than a week, and we have only conducted some of the most basic checks, completed the installation of the custom monocoque, spray-painted it, and carried out system adaptations for the steering wheel. As for a more detailed in-depth inspection of the engine and car computer system and other components, I’m afraid that will still require at least a week."
After using the purple Man and Car Unity Skill Card, Qin Miao’s familiarity with the car reached its peak, knowing without a check that the car had no problems whatsoever.
But before he could say anything, Roxin spoke: "I know you’re anxious, and we know that a car just out of the manufacturer’s factory won’t have any problems.
But child, you need to know, your life safety is more important than a moment’s excitement."
Qin Miao sighed with a hint of regret, but he’s not one to be unreasonable.
Although regrettable that he couldn’t sit in the monocoque and drive the car on the track now, before leaving, Qin Miao still sat in his driver’s seat, started the engine, and felt the rhythm of the car.
After getting out of the car, Qin Miao caught up with his crew members.
After all, they hadn’t seen each other for six months, both sides needed to get reacquainted to find that previous feeling again.
The first day was quite leisurely; after seeing the car he yearned for, Qin Miao returned home satisfied, helped Qimeng with the housework, and cleaned most of the house.
Unfortunately, Lubos was down, though he was no longer in any serious condition, he was still in the hospital and couldn’t come out. Otherwise, having an extra helping hand would make Qin Miao and Qimeng much more relaxed.
On the second day, Qin Miao exercised in the morning and went back to the team in the afternoon to start adaptation training using the simulator.
It is worth mentioning that the simulator Qin Miao used at Prema was a lot more realistic than the Ferrari F1 team’s simulator.
This wasn’t just Qin Miao’s feeling, but the proficiency system training on Prema’s simulator provided more than Ferrari’s training did.
The reason is quite interesting; Prema’s simulator bought the usage rights from Ferrari’s simulator, so in some sense, Qin Miao was still using Ferrari’s simulator.
But Prema’s simulator excluded vehicle upgrade variables, only needing to calculate F2 car data and track data. The simulator’s workload was less, with fewer data to simulate, thus the variables were fewer, making the simulation accuracy and realism even higher.
However, the Prema simulator still had hardware deficits.
Ferrari’s simulator used an F1 car monocoque as the cockpit, sitting inside felt like sitting in a real F1 car with the same view and position.
And recently Qin Miao heard that the staff responsible for the simulator are planning to introduce VR glasses to further enhance the realism of the simulation.
While Prema’s simulator was the kind you could buy on the market, although expensive and with good simulation results, the immersive experience wasn’t as strong as Ferrari’s F1 team simulator.
After beginning regular work, for nearly a week Qin Miao trained on the simulator under the assistance of Frankie and Sui Wentao, attempting to test various adjustments and settings on different tracks, striving to find the configurations that suited Qin Miao’s driving style best.
To be honest, Qin Miao didn’t step, believing it is a wasted effort because the car he drives in the simulator isn’t the F2 car he is truly familiar with, so the simulated data may have some discrepancies. But the good news is that training on the simulator does increase Qin Miao’s proficiency with the tracks.
