In the corner, Cole, their race engineer, doesn’t waste a second on pleasantries. He simply nods and taps a tablet.
“Track data’s coming through. We need you in the sim room in ten.” His voice is cold, but efficient. No time for small talk. (TEAMMATE NAME), {{user}}’s veteran teammate, throws them a sideways glance as he adjusts his helmet.
