Chapter 0394 - Strike While the Iron Is Hot
The race continues!
In other words, this Le Mans endurance race has just begun.
The Tianming team, which broke out of the encirclement in one fell swoop, naturally became the focus of everyone's attention, whether it was already known about this car, or the audience who had just heard of this car, they all began to give high hopes to the Tianming team.
The second four hours soon passed again.
The top three positions remained unchanged, with Mercedes-Benz leading the way with 136 laps, followed by Jaguar with 135 laps and Tianming with 134 laps.
The gap between the three teams has not changed significantly, but one day many people don't know, that is, in the second four hours, the Tianming team is not Jonathan driving the car, but the other two drivers take turns driving, and the skills of these two drivers are obviously not comparable to Jonathan.
Therefore, when it was the third or fourth hour, the Tianming team began the first wave of counterattack.
In the third four-hour report, the Tianming team overtook Jaguar with a total time of 200 laps, leaving less than a lap behind the first-placed Mercedes-Benz.
At this time, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, but the number of people in the audience showed no sign of decreasing, and many people were watching, cheering, and cheering while nibbling bread!
After 12 hours of continuous high-speed running, each car underwent different degrees of maintenance, during which the Kirin sedan also changed its tires once and refueled twice, but fortunately, there were no problems in the key parts of the car, which also bought Jonathan and his team valuable time.
As the game progressed, it was getting late and late, but all the personnel of the Tianming team were fighting on the front line, and Zhou Jingming, as the boss, naturally stayed in the audience, since he wanted to witness Jonathan and them make history, Zhou Jingming didn't want to miss any wonderful moment.
As the end of the race drew closer, and the competition became more and more intense, Jonathan's Kirin sedan was chasing after the Mercedes-Benz team, and the gap between the two sides was slowly narrowing from the previous lap to 10 kilometers and 8 kilometers......
Of course, the defending champion Jaguar, who is in third place, is not far behind, and the three cars have been in a scorching competition.
With one hour left in the race, Jonathan had managed to close the gap to Mercedes by 3 kilometers, and at this time, Jaguar was already a full ten kilometers behind him, and if nothing else, Jaguar could not catch up with him.
Jonathan, who was sitting in front of the steering wheel, was highly concentrated, the more he was at the last moment, the more he could not tolerate the slightest carelessness, and the gap between him and the first was only a few kilometers away, as long as he worked hard to surpass Mercedes-Benz, it was not impossible!
Although it is the first time to participate in the Le Mans endurance race and finally get the second place, he can definitely leave the track with his head held high, but Jonathan's credo has always been "except for the first, the rest of the rankings are no different from the last place", so this time, he must win the championship!
Not only Jonathan, but the audience in the audience is also nervous at the moment, whether it is Porsche, or Jaguar, they are all old and strong teams that have already proven themselves in the Le Mans event, but the Tianming team is different, it can only be regarded as a budding new in the Le Mans event, and it can witness a budding new to win the championship, this experience is absolutely indescribable!
"You have to do it!"
"Even if you don't win the championship in the end, this game is enough to go down in the history of Le Mans, it's really classic!"
"Who would have thought that a rotary engine would be able to force Mercedes-Benz racing cars to such an extent! After this competition, the rotary engine will definitely become a new hot spot in the automotive industry. ”
…………
There are still ten minutes left before the end of the race, and at this time, the Mercedes-Benz and Kirin cars have driven more than 394 laps, successfully breaking the record held by the previous champion Jaguar, and at this time, the two cars are setting new records!
Nine minutes.
Eight minutes.
……
With five minutes left before the end of the race, the two cars came to the corner of Le Mans, and Jonathan stepped on the accelerator and the steering wheel to the end, and the car overtook the Mercedes cars in front of him like the wind.
Overtaking in corners!
At this time, all the spectators in the audience suddenly burst into thunderous cheers, the more the game was surpassed at the end, the greater the psychological pressure on the opponent, and it was basically impossible to achieve a reversal.
After overtaking, Jonathan still didn't dare to slack off, after straightening the steering wheel, he kicked the accelerator again, and the car continued to sprint forward with a roar, the speed of the car. It also soared to 345 kilometers per hour, which is almost the limit of the Kirin racing car, and with the soaring speed of the vehicle, the temperature of the engine is also increasing sharply.
But Jonathan can't do so much anymore, he has only one goal now, to get the first place and win the championship!
Three minutes.
Two minutes.
One minute.
…………
With another order, this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans officially ended.
And the time is also frozen at this moment, the Kirin car in a posture of being born, the first time to participate, won the championship of Le Mans!
After the WRC, this is the second FIA A-class championship won by Tianming Racing Team!
The kilometre also managed to break the record set by Jaguar, and for the next 20 years, it will be the highest in Le Mans!
The glory of this moment only belongs to the Tianming team!
At this moment, Zhou Jingming, who was standing in the audience, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, although the second result still did not affect the sale of the Kirin sedan, but if it could be launched with the title of champion on his head, it would naturally be the best.
"The last minute was so exciting!"
"Who's to say it's not, my palms are still full of sweat right now. ”
"This Tianming team will definitely become a force to be reckoned with in the next ten years!"
Everyone was talking, and Jonathan, the admiration of thousands of spectators, nothing could be more wonderful than winning a game.
But Zhou Jingming was not carried away by the joy in front of him, the 24 Hours of Le Mans is just a platform, and winning the championship is just a way to publicize, after the hustle and bustle, everything will eventually go calm.
Today is June 28th, and there are only two days left before the release of the Kirin car, since it won the Le Mans endurance championship in one go, then the next thing is to strike while the iron is hot and burn the last fire for the final sale of the Kirin car.
