453: F1 Exhibition Race

“Also, in a couple of days, there will be an F1 exhibition race at Monza. I wonder if Fenlei would like to participate? At that time, most teams will showcase their latest models and engines, which will be a good opportunity for a technical reconnaissance.”

Carlos then extended another invitation.

Upon hearing this, Ren Yi thought it sounded pretty good too.

It could maximize the momentum for Fenlei, and the establishment of an F1 team could also be announced publicly at the same time.

With the double Overlay effect, it would be even more shocking.

“Alright, I’ll be there.”

Ren Yi readily agreed.

“That’s good, but you’ll need to submit an application to the F1 Committee in advance. Mr. Ren Yi, if you have any questions, I can help,” Carlos said happily.

Verstappen added, “Welcome!”

“Alright then, see you in two days.”

Ren Yi smiled as he hung up the phone.

He was originally supposed to return to China tomorrow, but now he would have to stay in Europe for a few more days.

He told Zhu Chao and the others about it.

Everyone was very excited.

After all, it was paid leave, and they would get to watch various top-tier racing cars compete on the same track. Only a fool wouldn't be happy.

Ren Yi didn't idle for the next two days.

Since he decided to participate in the F1 exhibition race, how could he not arm the thor m14 to the teeth?

Of course, the three main components couldn’t be changed. The main thing was the body design, which needed to be made more compliant with the requirements of the race.

Ren Yi immediately opened the lottery system. Since he had enough points now, he decisively chose targeted draws.

“System, give me an F1 car body design blueprint.”

It was very smooth. It only cost 50,000 points to draw the desired item.

After a careful look, Ren Yi revealed a satisfied smile.

The body weight was reduced by 12%, stability increased by 15%, and overall speed improved by 10%.

Now, the thor m14 was completely invincible.

As long as he found an uninhabited place, he could release the Super Production Line.

At that time, Ren Yi would only need to adjust the parameters to transform the thor m14 into the latest racing car design.

Over the next two days, Ren Yi and Zhang Kangyang discussed the relevant matters for forming an F1 team.

After much discussion, the team name was finally set as Fenghou.

There was no other meaning; Ren Yi just thought it sounded cool.

When the Monza F1 exhibition race began, Fenlei’s team looked much more spirited.

Here, they could see many world-class F1 racers and various brands of supercars.

They could also see the latest racing cars from major teams for the next season, which was, in a sense, a top-tier car show.

Of course, this was also a stage for major manufacturers to compete.

Carlos and Verstappen were also preparing to confront management at this time and propose their transfer.

Ren Yi and his team transported the thor m14 to the track in a large truck.

“Huh, wasn’t Fenlei’s thor m14 already parked in the garage at Monza? Could there be a new model?” Verstappen and Carlos had talked a lot in recent days and knew a lot about Fenlei, so they couldn’t help but wonder.

“I’m not sure. Maybe it’s the track version of the thor m14?”

Carlos could only guess.

“Don’t you know? Fenlei signed a contract for charging stations in Italy a few days ago, and they even brought the production line overnight. It’s said that they’ve re-modified the thor m14.”

At this moment, Torres, the person in charge of Monza, came over to strike up a conversation.

He had naturally received Fenlei’s prior notification about the transportation of the thor m14.

He also knew that Carlos and Verstappen seemed to be very close to Fenlei.

Given the impending transfer and the thor m14’s performance a few days ago, Torres could guess with certainty that the two of them would likely join the F1 team Fenlei was forming.

At that time, President Mayila could set a historical lap record at Monza with autonomous driving. If Verstappen drove it, wouldn't he be flying?

Perhaps Fenlei would be the true dominant force and champion of F1 for the next few years.

Torres naturally had to build a good relationship with them in advance.

At that time, Fenlei’s team’s press conferences, new model launches, and celebration parties in Europe would likely prioritize Monza.

This would definitely greatly boost ticket revenue.

Especially for tourists visiting Europe from China, as the starting point of China’s F1 ace team, they would certainly be willing to pay a high price to visit and check in.

They might even buy scalped tickets to watch the race.

Carlos and Verstappen were both surprised and excited to hear this news.

They were surprised by Fenlei’s speed, that it could be so fast, building the production line and putting it into formal production in just a few days.

They truly lived up to their reputation as infrastructure maniacs.

They were naturally excited because if Fenlei did this, their entry into F1 would be a certainty.

Otherwise, why would they launch a track version?

Both of them could already imagine the scene of dominating the F1 racing world in the future.

“However, didn’t they sign a charging station project? The newly built production line should also be for producing charging stations. How can it be used to modify F1 cars?” Verstappen then noticed the crucial point of the problem.

“Who knows? Anyway, that’s what Fenlei’s people communicated to me. After all, Fenlei had already been building Super Factories in Europe before, so transporting the production line wouldn’t take much effort,” Torres could only explain.

Then he thought of something else and chuckled, “Heh, if Fenlei’s factory is built as quickly as possible, then we can buy European-made thor m14s immediately, and the price will definitely be more than half cheaper than imported ones.”

“If Fenlei becomes the F1 champion in the future, the price will definitely skyrocket.”

“Even if you don’t drive it yourself, it’s an excellent investment. You might even be able to sell it for the original price after a few years.”

Torres’s thoughts had long since moved beyond why Fenlei’s factory in Europe could modify supercars.

As a businessman, he had already envisioned a bright financial future.

As a professional racer, Verstappen was not as enthusiastic about making money and business matters.

He was very curious about how Fenlei managed to do it.

At this moment, President Mayila of Alfa walked over.

She also heard their conversation: “As China’s newest and most powerful new energy enterprise, Fenlei has introduced many technologies that can be called black technology. Not long ago, they released their latest Super Production Line technology.”

“It is said that by simply setting the parameters of the production line and preparing the raw materials and relevant parts needed for the product, anything you want can be produced in just a few minutes.”

“From clothing and cosmetics to cars, nothing is impossible. Switching from charging stations to supercar parameters is probably already a fixed template, just a few button presses away.”
