The Drivers
​

Driver Name: Hung Trang, Vietnam Racing Name Trigram: TRG Nationality Trigram: VIET Preferred Number: 10 Reliability (Between 2 and 5): 3 Aggression (Between 2 and 5): 5 Technique (Between 2 and 5): 4 R/A/T ratings should add up to a maximum of 12. Chief Strategy During the Race: Charge out in the front from the beginning of the race to try and bait the other cars into racing in order to break their cars. Is not expected to finish the race. Take risky and aggressive maneuvers to take the lead.

Driver Name: Minh Ngo, VinFast Performance Name Trigram: NGO Nationality Trigram: VIET Preferred Number: Reliability (Between 2 and 5): 4 Aggression (Between 2 and 5): 3 Technique (Between 2 and 5): 5 R/A/T ratings should add up to a maximum of 12. Chief Strategy During the Race: Just race, as the best driver, Ngo will remain in the center of the pack and attempt to take the lead near the mid-end of the race. Will not overly attempt any dangerous, risky, or aggressive manuevers.

Driver Name: Vincent Mac, Saigon Tigers Name Trigram: MAC Nationality Trigram: VIET Preferred Number: Reliability (Between 2 and 5): 5 Aggression (Between 2 and 5): 2 Technique (Between 2 and 5): 5 R/A/T ratings should add up to a maximum of 12. Chief Strategy During the Race: Finish the race. Vincent Mac is the most junior driver on the team, currently racing out of VinFast Performance's feeder teams. He is not to overly push the car to it's limit. As the car is untested and new, Mac will perform the role of a quasi-test driver, ensuring that the car will at least finish and avoid a humiliating defeat for VinFast's debut.

In Vietnam, as the date of the Grand Prix of San Marino and Italy approached, the nation was abuzz. While racing was a brand-new mainstream concept, it had it's roots in the backcountry and villages. Never before had the young, fledgling nation competed in any international motorsport and the hype that accompanied the VinFast Performance team and it's subsidiaries were unreal. Populations of cities would congregate in their city centres, where the race was to be projected for all to see for those who didn't own television sets.

In Italy, the VinFast, Vietnam Racing, and Saigon Tigers teams would undergo final briefings and checks of their cars, ensuring mechanical precision prior to racing. There would also be a Lion Dance, performed for the public and the team in order to bring about good luck, fortune, and safety for the teams and drivers. The drivers would prep their cars for final checks, making minute adjustments to their setups to customize them to their own specifications for the qualifying laps.

Antarctica Motor Racing's team were excited, Racing was nothing new to Brazil, during the 60s, Brazil received many Endurance championships, one of them was the 12 Hours of Brasilia.

At home, the Famous Brazilian Soft Drink Brand, "Guaraná Antarctica", the Owner and Official Sponsor for the Team, ran advertisements for the team on the TV, Radio and on the rather foreign world of the Internet. Fans of Autosport in Brazil have travelled to Italy to witness first hand the performance of the Brazilians.

While such advertisement and excitement raised the morale of the Team, it also put some pressure on them to deliver a great result. the team was running the final checkups and adjustments on the car. The car itself had a Green, Red and White Livery. the colours of the Racing Team and their Main Sponsor, Felipe Nascimento stood outside the Team's Garage, answering questions from the Reporters. He wore the Team's Racing Suit and answered the questions calmly, seeming confident.

"All of Us in the team are very confident with our car, we have worked hard and hope for a great result."
