Freddie Slater Review
" Stepping Up To Formula Racing In the Best Way "
I have won numerous World Karting Races and Championships, and i understand the time that needs to be spent training is valuable. I use my Formula Simulator in between my races in karting to train for my upcoming car career. I can spend my time furthering my skills at home ready for when i hit the track in a real car for testing and racing in the future. Having the right equipment to train is key to success and the Formula Simulator fits that perfectly.

Freddie Slater x Cool Performance
Cool Performance installed Freddie's Formula Pro simulator while he was still in karting, where he won numerous World Karting races and championships, so he could train at home for his car career. Freddie still trains on the same Formula Pro spec used by our F1 drivers. In 2026 he took his first FIA Formula 3 feature race win and finished 2nd in the championship, and he now steps up to Formula 2.
