Off the track, Zhou Guanyu is mild-mannered, polite and eloquent. He's a different person entirely when behind the wheel of a fast car.
Mirror Sport experienced that first-hand at the British Grand Prix. Invited to sit alongside the Chinese racer, the plan was to let him know that he needn't take it easy out on track.
Zhou didn't need to be told. No sooner were our seatbelts on and door closed that he wheelspan the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio 100th Anniversary Edition off the line – and wasted no opportunities presented by the Silverstone track to throw the rear end out.
