When Zhang Yifei was crazy to overtake other drivers, there was a car behind him doing the same thing, and the speed was not slow at all, even Zhang Yifei couldn't get rid of him, and the driver of this car was Dixon.

Zhang Yifei didn't know about Dixon's step-by-step pursuit, in fact, from the start of the car, he had already found Dixon following him.

It's just that I don't know why, Dixon didn't choose to take the opportunity to overtake Zhang Yifei when he was blocked by other drivers, like Massa and Kubica.

But from the start to the present, he has been closely following Zhang Yifei's car, Zhang Yifei has increased his speed, he has become faster, Zhang Yifei has been driving unhurriedly, and he has not had any overtaking action behind.

has been following until the halfway point of the race, when Zhang Yifei chose to overtake, Dixon also began to accelerate wildly, and also ate Zhang Yifei's wake.

The two cars were in a frenzied chase on the track, overtaking the other drivers to take the lead.

For Zhang Yifei, there is no opponent in front of him, but for Dixon, he is in front of Zhang Yifei, and this is his last opponent!

At this time, Dixon used the wake effect to increase the speed again and shorten the distance between the two cars, and when the two cars were closer, the distance between the cars was less than 5 meters!

Are you ready for a heads-up with me?

Zhang Yifei drove Dixon in the rearview mirror to close the distance, and the expression on his face was very indifferent.

was closely chased for most of the schedule, and it was uncomfortable to change anyone. It's just that Zhang Yifei's attention was on the driver to be overtaken, and he didn't have the time to deal with Dixon, who was chasing after him.

Now that there are no other opponents, Zhang Yifei can free his hands and teach Dixon who is chasing after him a good lesson, so that he can understand that he is not so easy to follow.

Dixon in the rear car, under the helmet mask, had an excited expression on his face. Just as Zhang Yifei thought, Dixon wanted to have a "fair showdown" with Zhang Yifei, and now he finally got rid of the group of obstructions on the track, and he could give full play to his strength.

At the thought of this, Dixon felt his blood boiling, and finally there was an opponent on the track who was strong enough to fight him.

After getting close to Zhang Yifei's car, the next thing was naturally the overtaking action, Dixon kicked the floor oil, and used the "catapult" effect brought by the wake of the car to quickly change lanes to the left side of Zhang Yifei, intending to overtake.

Zhang Yifei had long been on guard against Dixon's move, and even had some expectations in his heart.

This road is all their own car that surpasses others, now look at how many pounds and taels Dixon has, why can he overtake his own car!

The speed bonus brought by the wake effect is destined to be faster than Zhang Yifei at this moment, and his control is not only accurate, but also very predictable!

Dixon was just as anticipating Zhang Yifei's defensive line change, he was more to the left than normal overtaking, and then used the acceleration effect of the "slingshot" to force the front nose wing of his car to be side by side with Zhang Yifei's rear wheel.

In this era, there are no severe penalties for secondary line changes, but once the front wing of the rear car is side by side with the rear wheel of the front car, it is considered to be a duplicate of the car.

In the event of a collision, the track rules will prohibit the driver in front of you from doing anything to block the other drivers. For example, regardless of using corners, deliberately squeezing opponents off the edge of the track.

Or the driving direction changes abnormally, forcibly accelerates again to change the line of defense, greatly increasing the risk of collision, etc.

These actions will be considered dangerous driving behavior, with minor time penalties and a ban if they cause a serious on-track accident.

Zhang Yifei did not blindly want to block Dixon's overtaking like a rookie driver at this time, but simply hit the steering wheel to the right and directly gave way to the overtaking route on the left.

Dixon naturally would not let go of this kind of opportunity, he did not have the slightest politeness and directly accelerated to the side by side with Zhang Yifei, and even vaguely exceeded the front of the car.

"Fei Ge was overtaken by someone! What is the origin of this Dixon, how can it be super Feige! ”

Seeing this scene, Ah Hu shouted excitedly, no matter what Zhang Yifei's ranking was in the previous two stops, he had never been surpassed. Even in the face of strong drivers in big teams like Massa and Suarez, it is not false at all.

But now, this Dixon who came out of nowhere, just biting Zhang Yifei before, and now he can still overtake. This scene made Ah Hu feel a little unacceptable, Zhang Yifei was the strongest driver in his heart, and it was impossible to be surpassed!

"It's normal to be overtaken, don't be too surprised."

Yamamoto Ukyo reminded Ah Hu that it is normal to be overtaken and overtaken on the track, not to mention that this is just a qualifying race, and the fastest lap is watched.

However, although Yamamoto Ukyo said so, the expression on his face was also solemn, because this was not an ordinary overtaking. Dixon in the back can be said to have followed Zhang Yifei all the way, and when it is clear that he wants to overtake, he can also successfully overtake decisively, which is absolute hard power.

It is really worthy of being a reserve driver cultivated by a giant team like Williams, and once it breaks out, the strength is really not to be underestimated.

"Oh, there's an even more exciting scene on the track, where we've seen flying frantically overtaking our opponents. As a result, he didn't expect that not long after he took the lead, he was given a lead by Dixon in the back car. ”

"I'm sure a lot of people in the audience didn't know about Dixon, who won the British and European Karting Championship four years ago. It was only then that he didn't know what was going on, and he didn't progress to Formula Junior and left the track for four years. ”

"It wasn't until this year that he reappeared and also joined the driver development program of Williams Racing, and the Renault European Championship was the first event Dixon wanted to conquer, so he was definitely a tough driver!"

"It seems that the suspense of the pole position in today's qualifying race may have to be saved to the end."

Red gave the audience a brief introduction to Dixon's background, which is also fate, when Red "debuted" as a commentator in his early years, he happened to explain the karting events that Dixon participated in.

At that time, Dixon made a deep impression on Red, because this guy has a weird style on the track, and belongs to the kind of driver who is strong when he is strong and weak when he is weak.

If everyone is not in good shape in this event, Dixon will run lazily and barely win. But once there is a strong opponent, Dixon is like a different person, and there is an amazing explosion of strength.

It stands to reason that if you win the All-European Karting Championship and enter the junior formula, you will definitely be able to stand firm. Unexpectedly, after this guy won the title, he disappeared like this, and it didn't appear until four years later.

From the middle of the first station, to the runner-up of the second station, to now competing with Zhang Yifei for the championship. Red also felt the change in Dixon's strength and performance, four years later, this guy's style has not changed, and Fei is about to usher in a tough opponent!

……

Zhang Yifei on the track, looking at Dixon on the left side leading him by one car, he did not show any eagerness and still maintained his rhythm.

Because there will be a corner ahead, and it is still a left-hand high-speed turn, this corner is Zhang Yifei's test run of the Manikul circuit, and he encountered the first Grande corner that skidded and almost rushed out.

The tangent of the left-turn high-speed corner is the sequence of right-left-right, and in formula car, there is basically no shortcut on the inside road when passing the high-speed corner.

Because whether the car is overtaken or not, the decisive factor is not who leads in the corner, but who accelerates faster on the straight after the next corner.

You should know that the starting speed of the straight is the exit speed of the previous corner, and the outside corner seems to be a longer driving route, but the speed will be faster! The little distance saved on the inside curve route is very limited and far less than the impact of the speed increase in the exit corner.

That's why, there are no drifts, no inside gutter corners, etc., there are only precise tangents. Unless the inside rider is no slower than the outside, the inside corner is not as good as the outside cut.

But is it possible? The grip of the tires has a limit, Zhang Yifei is not a rookie, the best braking point and cornering route, he has already had a desperate test running experience, Dixon can't be faster than himself!

Indeed, simply relying on the inside corner, it is impossible for Dixon to overtake Zhang Yifei. High-level moves, the opponent is unlikely to make such a low-level mistake, and the tangential speed on the outside is not as fast as the inside of a sharp corner.

So at this time, Dixon took another method, which is also a common scene in F1 cars, that is, to take advantage of the lead brought by the inside corner to directly change lanes in the corner to grab the line, forcing the opponent to slow down and give way.

The specific method is that after Dixon entered the corner in the leading position, he did not think about the inside corner, but directly hit the steering wheel to the right, and used the lead to force the card in front of Zhang Yifei's car to destroy Zhang Yifei's cornering tangent.

Usually this kind of scene happens, the driver behind is either forced to slow down, or has to change lanes and follow the line, and then find a way to overtake back. Otherwise, the two cars just turned the corner peacefully, and the car in front would have taken the lead directly.

There is a more popular explanation for this method of grabbing the line, that is, it doesn't matter whether I can turn fast or not, as long as I can grab the front faster than my opponent!
