Details of the Upcoming IRL Stream

Felix provided insights regarding this unique streaming opportunity:

“I’m not even sure if I was allowed to say it or whatever. The stream that I would do with the F1 driver officially would be with Yuki. I hope that’s still happening. It would be a private lesson and we’d be able to stream for three hours, is what they told me. It would have F4, whatever that is. So, we’d be able to do both, like, actual lap and drive on the track. One lap each.”
