(Motorsport-Total.com) – To prepare for the Formula 1 race, Carlos Sainz has come up with different ways. But now the Spaniard wants to dive into the virtual world and give his new simulator at home a chance. The McLaren driver is not a gamer like Lando Norris or Max Verstappen, but wants to get involved in the virtual preparation.
“I want to test if it's fun,” says Sainz. “I actually have a lot of free time when I'm not at McLaren or in the gym, so I want to give the simulator a chance, but I still prefer to go outside and ride rally cars or karts but I have a talent for simulations. “
Sainz prefers to train in reality (*************************************************************) So far Sainz prefers karting because he has to act in the real world. He says, “I use karting to prepare myself, especially for stretches where the walls are as close to the road as Singapore, Monaco and Canada, which is always a challenge for me, but at some point it's boring, so many laps On the same track to drive “
What surprised: Sainz sometimes finds the kart driving more strenuous, as in a Formula 1 car to race for the course. For him, driving a kart is physically more demanding and more intense than tackling a Formula 1 car on some routes. Also this training seems to bring a lot to the Spaniard.
Hülkenberg not a fan of simulations
Who probably never gets warm with simulators and the virtual world, is Nico Hulkenberg, who was not a gamer in his childhood. The Renault driver has never been interested in the virtual games on the computer or the console and was never really excited about it. He says, “I missed it a bit and I'm not interested in it now.”

However, the German can imagine that training in simulators could one day become an important factor for young racers. No doubt he is not: “Hard to say, I think it does not hurt.”
“It's just another generation, personal preference, what you like and what you do not like Leisure time “, says Hülkenberg. And I understand that they are extremely good at it, and I do not know if they can pull something out for themselves. “
When asked if racing situations were practiced in simulations Hülkenberg replies: “That could be it, but the computer car does not necessarily behave like the realistic car – I do not know, it's difficult to give a concrete answer to such a scenario.”
