The Road To Championship Begins

The application and first round of tests went smoothly, and the doctors at Clinica San Cataldo assured Luca that everything would be handled professionally. They promised to keep the screening process airtight, preventing any tampering—whether from external forces or even Luca and his team themselves.

They returned to the facility in high spirits, satisfied with how things had gone.

From now on, Luca would be visiting the hospital daily, since their process was quick and efficient. As for the FIA sub-quarters, he'd only need to show up every two or three days.

In between those days, he'd be drilling in the single-seater provided for him.

That very afternoon, the car arrived. It was rolled right into the front of the main building as if it were a rented sedan being dropped off.

Or at least, that's what Luca thought at first.

Then he realized that it wasn't rolled or towed. It was driven.
