"Team leader, isn't today a practice race? Why is it only our team?"
With this doubt, Chen Xiangbei asked Odetto.
"What practice race, today is just a practice day."
Upon hearing this answer, Chen Xiangbei realized that he had got it mixed up.
This era's lower-tier formula series is quite chaotic, even F3 and F2 aren't standardized, let alone the official practice race schedule in F1.
The so-called "practice race" in Renault Formula is actually just a track open day, where participating teams can choose to enter for training.
While the FIA imposes strict restrictions on private tests in Europe, there are still many loopholes in lower-tier events. For European local teams and drivers, the Silverstone Circuit feels almost like a home track, so there's no rush to arrive early.
Only Chōmō, such a Japanese team, with two drivers having limited practice time on the Silverstone Circuit, needs to come early for training and testing.
