The impressive journey of Kimi Antonelli toward mastering the latest generation of motorsport regulations did not happen by chance. Behind his seemingly effortless performances on track lies an intense month-long winter preparation program inside the team's simulator.
The sweeping technical overhaul featuring completely revised chassis layouts, aerodynamics, and complex power units demanded a drastic shift in driving style. The young Italian talent openly admitted that adapting to the machinery was far from straightforward during his media commitments.
"I had to adapt tremendously as well," Kimi Antonelli explained to journalists, including FormulaPassion. "I believe the difference came from the preparation we did before the season started. This year's car was completely new in terms of chassis, aero, and power unit, and it was certainly not easy at first."
To tame the technical demands and establish a clear development direction for the engineering crew, Kimi Antonelli committed nearly an entire month of continuous work at the Brackley headquarters during the winter break.
"We spent almost a whole month straight in England working every single day in the simulator with the team. That made all the difference in understanding this new generation of cars as quickly as possible, knowing what needed to change, and providing feedback to the team for improvements," he concluded.
