The advantage of racing simulators is that drivers experience an authentic feeling of driving on real-life circuits, but since they drive in the virtual world, they can afford to take more risks and look for limits without risking a tragic accident or injury. At the same time, they can learn new techniques and strategies from one another. “Thanks to simulator race, I can see how would Max drive on a real track,” says Lando Norris. “I have already learned how he blocks and what aggressive overtaking maneuvers he sometimes uses.”

However, Lando is not learning only from Max Verstappen, other professional simulator drivers, who have an overview of the open-wheel car set-up options and, thanks to the long hours spent behind the wheel of the simulator, have the driving technique refined to perfection have broadened his horizons. Anyone can gain huge experience for real racing, just train in a professional racing simulator.
