“There is a before and after Simucube in my life to be able to feel the brake pedal matching my real car and steering effort has made my home sim experience so different, before I was playing for fun, now I’m actually training and getting a benefit also on the physical and feeling side.”

Tatiana’s story

Tatiana began sim racing during the pandemic to prepare for races and to train during the off-season. She then realized how important it is to be active online and to learn new tracks in the virtual world, especially when racing worldwide with limited track time. Now, Tatiana’s weekly routine includes sim racing, and she feels it’s an important tool for race drivers.

Tatiana describes sim racing as a shortcut for becoming more familiar with settings and track references, and for understanding which areas to work on. She tried Simucube based on recommendations from top sim and race car drivers who use Simucube at home to prepare and race online. She felt she needed to try the products and experience the feeling for herself.

“To be able to adapt the steering torque and the brake feeling of Simucube products has been a gamechanger for me personally”

Prepare for real life racing

Tatiana Calderon sees sim racing as a crucial part of learning new tracks worldwide since there is not too much time to practice on real tracks. She feels sim racing helps her to speed quicker and in a more efficient way.

“The problem is I can’t drive anything else than Simucube anymore, it’s been an incredible experience, and it keeps surprising me how many little adjustments you can do to the pedal and steering forces. It’s simply the closest feeling to a real car.”
