[Racing] King of Speed

The two top-ranked Satikas died gloriously, and Kinsey, who was in third place, naturally rose to the top spot. He followed the safety car and led the car formation to make laps. After only one lap, everyone found that Kinsey had pitted?

"Pitted after just one lap? Did he start with the new soft tires from yesterday's qualifying?" The host expressed his incomprehension.

Ross saw the Quimby team hastily took out a new nose for him to replace, "Kinsey's car seems to have a problem."

"Could it be implicated by the collision of Satika just now?"

The director also gave a replay at the right time. Sure enough, before Gannett and Pirzeau went up the wall hand in hand, the car body tilted and skidded unintentionally to Kinsey's front wing, causing his front suspension to break and he had to go in replace.

At this time, the safety car was still running, and no one needed to go in to change tires, and the car line was relatively crowded. As soon as Kinsey got out of the station after dealing with the problem, he naturally fell to the end. Excluding the five retired cars, he is now No. .16, but since he came in, the team changed him to soft tires and hard tires. Obviously, the original strategy has to be changed according to the situation on the field.

"Well, the Quinby team has also lost a general. Kinsey basically has little hope of getting on the podium at this stage. Alas, the situation is great." The host sighed.

"This will make the other two competitors cheaper." Rose was naturally referring to Westbrook and Nair who followed him.

The safety car took five laps and re-entered the station. Although it was a Rolling Start (dynamic start/start between the roads), the competition for the first turn was still fierce. Neil had a certain ambition for Weiss in front of him. His original plan Taking advantage of Weiss pressing the car, he followed closely behind and tapped to overtake, but Weiss was also very alert and had already guarded against him. He occupied the lane early at the beginning, preventing Nell from having a chance to climb the head.

The two of them fought together. Behind Nair was his teammate Huffman. It is impossible for Huffman to attack Nair. What he should do is to block the drivers behind him and keep his No.3. However, he was facing Kaiser, who also took advantage of the crash and took three positions in a row.

Huffman is the runner-up in F3, and his technical level is definitely enough, but Kaiser is; the skill and mentality of the veteran WDC, although the Oga team has been in a state of incapacity throughout the season this year, Kaiser's results are not enough. There were ups and downs, but when everyone's tire temperature hadn't risen and the fuel was heavy, how could his flexible response be comparable to that of a rookie who had only played a few official games.

However, Huffman, who cheated after a few fake moves, made a mistake, and then directly cut the corner and killed him from the inside.At that time, Nair's car lanes were all blocked by Weiss, and the outside lane was almost wide open. Kaiser saw this point, and then went directly to the outside lane in Turns 13 and 14, and got stuck in Nair abruptly. In front of Er, he almost snatched a position from the tiger's mouth.

This series of overtakings was very exciting, and extremely bold and clean, which aroused thunderous applause from the scene. This is also one of the few bright spots of Kaiser and Oga this year.

"Kaiser is afraid that there will be no shots for the team's year-end highlights, so he came to contribute." Rose laughed and teased.

"Compared to a real master, Huffman is still a little young. If every second counts in the final fight, I don't think he can help Neil too much." The host said objectively.

Ross agrees.

Kaiser did not widen the gap after surpassing Nair. His speed was not fast, but Nair suffered from the low temperature of the tires, so he had no way to catch Kaiser for a while. Instead, because of his obstruction in front, he and The distance between Weiss is getting wider and wider, and he is inevitably a little anxious.

At this moment, the sudden change occurred again, and a notification suddenly appeared at the bottom of the screen, which was sent by the event director.

"Car No. [-] will be investigated by the race because of a false start?" the host read, "Car No. [-]?"

Ross said, "It's Kaiser."

As soon as the announcement was made, the director quickly found the scene of the departure, and then played it back repeatedly for everyone.

In every race, there will be five signal lights in front of the grid as action reminders. Whenever the start is ready, the signal lights will light up one by one, indicating a five-second countdown. At the moment of action, five red signal lights They will go off together in an instant, and the race will officially begin. However, just like track and field competitions, some people react too slowly at the start and lose time, while others react too quickly and run away before the lights go out.At this time, it is time to accept the investigation of the race officer, and the results are nothing more than the same. If there is nothing to do, continue to run, and if there is something to do, go back and pass through the Pit area before returning to the field to compete.

From the video, when the five red lights are still on, Kaiser has a rhythm of heading forward, which is obviously a clear run.

The host got excited, "It seems that today is Neil's lucky day, and everyone who stands in his way will suffer."

"Are you saying Wes is next?"

"I didn't say that! Although I have this kind of conjecture, if Weiss really encounters problems, it must not be my curse! I am kind!" The host immediately denied.

"But to be honest, Sislera had such a vigorous start this year. I didn't expect to encounter so many problems along the way. The game has reached today, and Nair should be lucky." Rose said.

"That's right, you should think the same way, the so-called good luck, Neil should also change his luck."

The two played tricks and teased for a few laps before returning, and found that Jinxi, who was at the bottom, had overtaken four cars in a row to reach the twelfth place. Although Jinxi used hard tires, it was definitely better than the small teams at the end with soft tires. quick.

And the penalty for Kaiser in the game has also come down. It is clear that it is a false start, and he will be fined to pass the pit stop.

After one lap, Kaiser went back honestly and was punished. When he exited the station, he was in the eleventh place, and happened to be stuck in front of Kinsey, and Kinsey killed him without any hesitation.

The race has been going on for more than ten laps, gradually some teams started to stop to change tires.Without Kaiser blocking in front, Nair is slowly approaching Weiss with a gap of 0.4 and 0.5 per lap. Weiss' tires have obviously begun to fail, but this advantage is not that big. If you want to overtake Weiss It still takes time.

At this time, Sislera decisively let Nell stop to change tires, and wanted to use Undercut to simply overtake the opponent, but Quinby was not stupid, just waiting to be beaten, and they also recruited Weiss into Pit in the same circle.

At the critical moment, Quinby's tire changer was a little bit more powerful. One took 2.9 seconds and the other 3.3 seconds. Weiss re-entered the track with a 0.4-second advantage.The two Satikas are gone, and a Quimby and an Oga are behind due to various unlucky things. Except for Nair and Weiss, at most one Fren, other cars and the speed of several big teams There is a certain gap. The cars after the fifth or sixth place are very open, and there is even an interval of more than 30 seconds in the middle. The top driver can start to set the lap of the slow car at the end less than half the time.So the exit window for the two of them is not bad. They are stuck in the fourth and fifth positions. Not far away is Fren, and he also pitted after running a lap, so the eyes of Neil and Weiss The road was flat.

The two put on hard tires together, and Weiss's tire was warmer than Nair's, so Nair had no bargaining chip to pursue. He could only make sure not to be pulled away by Weiss too much. If Nair's tires were worn out before 2Stop If it is slower, he still has a lot of opportunities.

In the middle section, Jinxi's speed is still very good. A series of drivers in front have entered the pit again. Unknowingly, he has returned to the points zone. He is currently in the eighth position. Gregory, who also uses hard tires, is in front of the car. .In front of Gregory was Gavin.

It is not difficult to kill Gregory based on the current condition of Kinsey's car, but this time Gregory is smart, and his speed is not slow, at least faster than Gavin, but he did not immediately overtake the car in front, but It is tightly attached to Gavin's buttocks. Firstly, it does not give Kinsey the space to climb the head truck. Secondly, he is in Gavin's attack zone within one second, so he can turn on the DRS, otherwise he will be overtaken. After Gavin, Kinsey will immediately attack Gavin, the next target is him, and as long as Kinsey's tires wear out slowly, or the two of them pit together, there is still a chance to save his position.

But Kinsey is not a person who knows how to retreat. You think I can’t pass, but I want to show you, just when he slapped Gregory and wanted to take off the two cars at the same time. At that time, Gregory was also ready to defend desperately, and at this time, Kinsey's TR rang, and it was his track engineer.

"Kinsey, BOX."

Kinsey is a fearless person, but the team is unwilling to take any risks. As the end of the game approaches, with such a huge championship, every point is the key, and it is hard to fight against a desperado like Gregory , It's really not a wise move, but they know Jin Xi's temper, and it's impossible for him to keep his own place and stay still. In case something happens, it's safest to call him back.

Kinsey also understood, so he had to go back to the pit lane obediently.

With half of the race remaining, Kinsey replaced the hard tire with the soft tire. This stop was earlier than he originally planned, but he could fight with the soft tire for the remaining two quarters. Compared with most teams' On hard tyres, he still has an advantage.

And his bad luck seemed to be over, because he had just run more than one lap before he had another accident.

Two small teams collided and half of the rear wing fell off. The car was still able to drive, but the track was covered with a lot of debris. When the race was going on normally, the staff could not go up and clean it up. Therefore, the safety car only can come out.This is a big advantage for Jin Xi who has just entered the station.

Some drivers took advantage of the situation and entered the station to replace the new tires that had not been used for a few laps. Kinsey did not go, so his ranking rose to seventh after the restart.

And this is also a good situation for Nair. After leaving the station, one of them was in second and the other was in third. The front stop was very late, and there was no Huffman who followed in together. The gap between Weiss and Nair It is approaching to the minimum, will Nair be able to seize this opportunity to surpass this time?

After the safety car left, the race restarted again.
