End of the Century Talented Racer

Chapter 167 The pressure comes from the tires...

Asked if he thought Leysen could match Dongsheng in the long distance, Vergil replied: "I think it's promising. It's not too difficult a thing and I think we can do it. So I Looking forward to doing a cool post-match interview in 24 hours."

When it was time for the main game the next day, as soon as the stadium opened, the spectators who had been waiting outside the stadium for a long time immediately crowded into a group. The stadium was already bustling with people, and they were crowded together.

By the time the race started, it was already dusk in Bahrain and the track started to light up. At this time, the local atmospheric temperature was 28 degrees Celsius, while the track temperature was 33 degrees Celsius.

At 23:10 BJ time, the game officially kicked off.After a simple warm-up lap, start off!
The first car seat is Daniel, which is also his third pole position in Bahrain, his teammate Santak is in second place, and the two ice city drivers Seaver and Stewart are in third and fourth place respectively position, but Stewart can only start from ninth position today due to the replacement of the gearbox.

Wearing a heavy racing suit, Zhang Yue sat in the racing cabin and looked at the cars in front of him. These cars, which contained a lot of black technology, looked extremely beautiful in his eyes at this moment.

Especially the taillight on the back of the car, it even looks a little cute~
The corner of Zhang Yue's mouth raised slightly, but he recalled his attitude towards this racing competition at the beginning.

Uh... so delicious!
It wasn't until seeing the track lights that Zhang Yue quickly calmed down and focused on the upcoming start.

The indicator lights light up in sequence until they all go out.

The actions of many drivers on the track were roughly the same when the lights went out, and they rushed out of the starting line immediately below them.

The start of the two Dongsheng drivers was not very ideal. Daniel, who was on pole, barely held his position, but his teammate Santak was not so lucky. the third.

Because Tesrock lost control and crashed in Q1, he could only start from No.15 in today's race. However, Tesrock performed very well after the start of the race and reached tenth place in the first lap.

Then Tesrock started a fierce competition with Stewart. Tesrock overtook the opponent very hard, but Stewart quickly launched a counterattack, and the two cars collided.

This also led to Teslock's tire blowout. Tesrock insisted on driving the car back to the pit stop to change the tire. Although he insisted on returning to the pit stop, he finally made the decision to retire.

If Teslok was the beginning of Leyson's nightmare, then what happened to Virgil was the continuation of the nightmare. Then Virgil's car had problems. His gear was directly stuck, and he had no choice but to stop the car. Unfortunately, he withdrew from the race, and the Leysin team had to declare annihilation after the start.

Zhang Yue felt a little uncomfortable after hearing the news. Although he and Virgil were in a competitive relationship in the arena, Vergil's friendliness to him last night has always been optimistic in the arena. The driver, after the race started...

Although it is cruel, this is the game. Unless it is the last moment, no one will know what will happen on the court in the next second.

After the virtual safety car was dispatched on the track, Stewart immediately launched an attack. His beautiful attack in the first turn directly allowed him to surpass Gu Gaoyuan, Altaïr and Alex in an instant to reach the sixth place.

Leysen's annihilation did not affect Stewart's performance. He continued his overtaking mode and surpassed Wesley and Alfredo consecutively to come to fourth place.After ten laps of the race, the top five drivers on the track were Daniel, Seaver, Santak, Stewart and Alfredo.

On lap 12, Stewart set the fastest lap, and Daniel also extended his lead to more than 3 seconds at this time.At this time, many drivers started to stop to change tires. Altaïr changed to medium tires. After returning to the track, he was still in front of his teammate Delacro.

On the 18th lap of the race, the top four drivers had gradually widened the gap with their opponents behind. Daniel took the lead to make the first stop, and temporarily ranked fourth after coming out.On the 4th lap, Santak pitted and came out behind his teammates.

On lap 21, Seaver pitted for medium tires, so he would probably choose a one-stop strategy. He was still in front of Santak after he came out, but obviously, Santak had to take advantage of the tires as soon as possible Complete overtaking, otherwise Dongsheng will be very passive.

But Seaver's speed was very stable, and Santak couldn't help it.Until the 26th lap, Daniel surpassed Stewart on the straight and returned to the top position. Stewart then pitted and he also changed to medium tires. The two drivers in Bingcheng will adopt a one-stop strategy!
On the 30th lap, Daniel still had an advantage of 4 seconds ahead of the No.24 Stewart. The next few laps seemed to be uneventful, but on the 36th lap, there was another turmoil on the field, and Santak pitted for the second time , He had an accident while changing the tire!
Because the technician on the left rear wheel of the car did not remove the tire, but Santak had already got the green light signal, his car rushed out, which caused injuries to the staff, and Santak could only retire with regret. At the same time, this mistake It also ruined Dongsheng's good hand.

Daniel, who was fighting alone, faced a lot of pressure. Stewart, who rose to the third place, did not give up catching up. At this time, he gradually approached his teammates in front of him.

On lap 44, Daniel still has an 8-second advantage over Seaver behind him, but he may need to make another stop. However, based on the situation on the field, Daniel is likely to grit his teeth and persevere.

On the 46th lap, Seaver narrowed the gap with Daniel to 6 seconds, and Daniel's tire disadvantages began to be gradually exposed.

Entering the last ten laps, Daniel's lap time did not drop too much, and he needed to hold on in the last few laps.At this time, the top five drivers on the track are Daniel, Seaver, Stewart, Alfredo and Wesley, and Zhang Yue is now ranked seventh.

On the fifth to last lap, Daniel still had a 3.2-second advantage over Seaver and an 11-second advantage over Stewart.

Going into the last three laps, Daniel leads Seawell by only 1.4 seconds, and he will be very difficult next.On the 56th lap, the gap between the two sides was already within 1 second, but the good news is that Seaver didn't get a chance for the time being.
