Chapter 1133: Chapter 429: Leclerc: I’m an Old Fox Too (6K, Extra Update 7/17)_4
The difficulty of moving from F3 to F2, although not as great as entering F1 from F2, is still not easy.
You either have to be particularly wealthy, like Zhou Guanyu or Mazepin, directly purchasing or investing in an F2 team, or your talent must be exceptional, catching the eye of an F2 team leader, or you join the F1 team’s driver academy, rising through evaluations.
Although Arthur Leclerc has some talent, compared to his brother, Charles Leclerc, there is indeed a slight gap.
Despite the fact that the Leclerc family lives in Monaco, a middle-class family in the motorsports industry can only be considered entry-level.
The Leclerc family has a difficult time supporting the expenses of two racers simultaneously, so Arthur has already missed the best growth opportunities.
Particularly since Arthur is still part of the Ferrari Driver Academy.
This place, although it often lets go of some talented drivers, like Qin Miao.
But the enormous fame and historical depth of Ferrari itself are evident. For those young people who are not very familiar with the track but have a racing dream, the Ferrari Driver Academy is a very good place to go.
So the Ferrari Driver Academy does not lack talented young drivers. Therefore, in such an environment, Arthur’s current chances of obtaining an F2 driver qualification exist, but are not high.
"I don’t know, but I’ll try my best." Arthur said.
"Today, I specifically brought Arthur to get familiar with the Zandvoort track, there are F2 and F3 races this week." Leclerc explained.
Qin Miao patted his head: "I’ve been focusing on F1 races and car upgrades recently, the team’s matters have also made me a bit overwhelmed, I forgot there were F2 and F3 races this week. You guys carry on, I won’t disturb you."
Just as Qin Miao was about to leave, Leclerc smiled and hooked his arm around Qin Miao’s neck: "Don’t rush off, after the summer break we haven’t had a proper meal together, I’m treating tonight! Order whatever you like, eat to your heart’s content, we don’t have work tomorrow anyway."
Qin Miao’s mouth twitched wildly: "If I said I have something urgent to take care of right now, would you believe me?"
Leclerc smiled silently.
Qin Miao shrugged helplessly: "What bad luck."
Qin Miao knows Leclerc all too well, seeing this expression he can already guess what he’s thinking.
This bastard clearly saw that no team personnel accompanied him today when he came to the track, knowing he came for a leisurely visit.
And today he’s planning to bring his brother to get familiar with the track.
Isn’t it perfect?
He can bring Qin Miao along to fill in the gaps.
World championship guidance isn’t so easy to obtain, and with his relationship with Qin Miao, Leclerc has no qualms about taking a little advantage.
Seeing Qin Miao’s face full of frustration but helplessness, Leclerc laughed and patted Qin Miao on the shoulder: "Alright, just accept your fate.
And I said I’d treat you to a meal, didn’t I? Don’t make such a face like you’ve lost millions, smile a little."
Even though he said that, Qin Miao seemed to agree, but Leclerc didn’t let go of his hold on Qin Miao’s neck, as if fearing he would run off.
Then Leclerc said to his brother Arthur: "Quick, thank Qin Miao, he’s willing to walk the track with us. The opportunity for world champion guidance doesn’t come often, you should cherish it."
