Chapter 122: Overtaking
When it comes to motorsport, overtaking is always one of the most exciting topics!
An entire race without any overtaking shots, no matter how fast, is undoubtedly tedious and lethargic. Every spectator who paid to go to the scene and wait by the TV to watch the game actually wanted to see one exciting overtaking shot after another. As a driver who is behind, only by overtaking can he move towards a better position.
But the reason why overtaking is so much anticipated is precisely because of its rarity in high-level racing! It can be said that every overtaking shot is the essence of all the creativity, wisdom, courage and top technology of the driver, and every overtaking is so precious for the racing competition! It is in this overtaking that the drivers have gathered all their energy to get to this day......
And this also proves from one side how difficult it is to successfully overtake! On the first day of training, every driver is told by their coach that in order to overtake, they need to 'press' their car close to the front half of the car in front of them. On the other hand, if you don't want to be overtaken by your opponent, then you have to defend the inside line and the waistline of your car.
Easier said than done! Where is it so easy to really do that? For those who overtake, the initiative is always to make judgments and adjustments based on the actions of the opponent in front of the driver. And how difficult is it to 'press' close to the waistline of your opponent's car and keep your car running at high speed and accuracy, so as to successfully overtake your opponent's desperate defense instead of crashing into opponents, guardrails, or being re-suppressed by opponents?
Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that overtaking is one of the most difficult technical aspects of motorsport......
......
Ye Feng is now trying to overtake, the most difficult technical link. And judging from Lao Ye's more and more dignified expression at this time. The guy is also starting to realize that trying to kick his opponent's ass isn't as simple as he thinks. In the last competition, the reason why Ye Feng was able to surpass so many opponents was that on the one hand, there was a factor that he played for a long time and fully exerted the advantage of 03-ca speed, but more importantly, the opponent did not pay special attention to Lao Ye at that time and focused on chasing and intercepting like now, so that Lao Ye had that result from the last super to the fifth. Now, a full 15 laps have passed since the race, and Lao Ye has not sought any overtaking opportunity at all under the wrap of the three cars in front of him, and his position is still stagnant in the tenth position without any change.
In fact, Senna knew it very well in his heart. Now Ye Feng's real strength is not enough to play well on the CCC stage, at best, he is just a very ordinary driver. No matter how hard Ye Feng has trained under his Senna, Ye Feng has only just been in contact with motorsports for more than 300 days. It may be a little difficult for Ye Feng to defeat those opponents who have received formal and strict racing training since he was a child. But Senna does not regret letting Ye Feng step into the professional racing world so early, because Senna firmly believes that actual combat is always the best way for a driver to improve quickly. However, as for how many things Ye Feng could comprehend and how quickly he could improve in such a high-intensity competition, Senna actually didn't know how much he could understand......
One thing is for sure, though. That is, most of Ye Feng, who is racing and training alone, lacks the awe of the sport of racing and speed like other drivers who have been practicing since childhood! Ye Feng has not crashed into a car, let alone suffered serious injuries due to accidents like most riders, and there is also the deliberate indulgence of his coach Senna. Speed and motorsports are more of a game for Lao Ye! So in every circle of high-speed movement. The only thought in Ye Feng's mind was to make the car run faster than just now, a little faster! And when other drivers can't help but step on the brakes in what they think is a certain limit state, Ye Feng will always choose to increase the throttle to pursue his own surpass......
And this is the reason why Lao Ye has always been able to make incredible achievements for so long! This is exactly what Senna deliberately pursued in Ye Feng, a fearless motivation! Although Senna knew that this fearlessness based on ignorance was somewhat cruel to Ye Feng, and this ignorance would eventually be broken one day, there was no doubt that at this stage, this was Ye Feng's biggest advantage over other riders!
......
"Oh! The driver has now completed 20 laps. The competition has undoubtedly entered a very intense stage! Zhan Yunfei, who was the first to start the car, performed very well today and still firmly occupied the first position, which is the first time in this year's CCC to see such a strong performance of Subaru racing!
Behind him are Han Han, Wang Rui and Gu Lin. And Gu Qing still didn't show the kingly aura of him before! Interestingly, it was his sister who had been suppressing him in front of Gu Qing today: Gu Lin. The No. 2 beauty driver of the Flying Dragon doesn't seem to want to give her brother some face at all!
Now the real competition is actually in the second group! A few cars from six to twelve never pulled away! Overtaking is happening constantly! And the phenomenon of the three cars we saw just now adopting the tactics of wrapping and clamping against the tenth-place Ye Feng has finally changed a little! After all, the 'gift' they gave to the Flying Dragon today was enough to make a 'color'! It looks like everyone is starting to get ready to get a better starting position for the second stage! And in the last 20 laps. Ye Feng also kept trying to break out of the opponent's encirclement, but each time he didn't succeed, and now the opponent has relaxed his bag, let's wait and see how the No. 23 driver will perform! ”
......
With the disintegration of the bag clamp that lasted for 20 laps, Ye Feng can finally breathe a sigh of relief now! nnd! Lao Ye Xin said that these turtle grandsons were really interested, and they actually joined forces to suppress him Lao Ye for 20 circles, and they really gave him face as a newcomer! Yas. Now that he is not more than a few of them, Lao Ye feels that he can't stand the opponent's "contempt" for him at this time!
Hands on your own! As the track space on both sides of Lao Ye suddenly opened up again, the silver "colored" No. 23 car began to "show" its hideous side again. The engine with a high of 11,000 rpm burst out with surging power under the urging of Lao Ye. The roar began to hit the opponent strongly. Each time, Lao Ye either braked very deep into the corner, or began to avoid the crash when he was very close to the opponent's car.
Although this attempt has not yet allowed Lao Ye to surpass the Beijing Speed Team in front of him, in the racing concept established by Senna for Lao Ye, constantly exerting strong pressure on the opponent is a very important part of it! Senna once told Lao Ye that the attempt to overtake is actually the same as the "shooting" goal in a football game. It is only through constant attempts that it is possible to overtake the opponent or score goals. Imagine if you didn't even try. And where will there be results?
So, almost at the same time. The Beijing driver became the most stressful of the on-site riders! He felt that the movements of this opponent behind him were simply crazy! Almost every acceleration of that guy was aimed at his Honda! And the driver even had the illusion that every time Lao Ye's silver "colored" car was about to knock his Honda off the track. And every time he cornered, he had to barely hold on to the lead at his limit. But the pressure was already a bit exhausting......
When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins! This is an eternal truth on the battlefield! It's the same on the track! When Ye Feng's No. 23 chariot stepped on the tighter and tighter pace step by step to "press" the Honda car in front of him, when Honda's cornering action began to become messy and passive under the urging of Lao Yedi, when the rhythm of the race began to be controlled by Ye Feng step by step, the already fragile nerves of the Beijing driver finally collapsed in the most difficult hairpin corner of the Zhuhai track!
One blue and one silver, two high-speed racing cars flew into this corner at a speed of more than 150 kilometers, and the front of the No. 23 chariot still did not slow down until it was already close to the waist of the car in front. A silver light flashed before his eyes. Ye Feng, who had been suppressed by him for almost a full half, finally completed a very beautiful overtake under everyone's gaze!
Domineering and forcibly overtaking!
......
“md! Come on! Your grandfather is here! ”
After overtaking, Ye Feng burst out with a roar of excitement! And the movements of his hands did not stop for a moment, and 03-CA began to take revenge on his opponent like an angry lion at this time! And the advantage of the racing car began to fully "reveal" under Ye Feng's neurotic driving at this time, showing his unscrupulous might! With a huge roar, it only took a few hundred meters for the No. 23 chariot to launch a powerful attack on the 8th-ranked Hualong team's logo 307!
The same chassis technology, the same unique PSS technology. The pedigree of the same WRC champion chariot. One white and one silver, two French racing cars, began to chase like no one else! The other Honda car of the Beijing Speed Team before them also seemed to sense the madness of the two runners behind them, and became a little panicked. And he learned from the team's radio that it was Ye Feng who had just been let go by them who launched this round of fierce impact. So this driver made a decision that he regretted later at such an invulnerable moment: he chose to work together to suppress Ye Feng again!
Looking at the blue "color" Honda in front of him unbelievably gave way to himself at the entrance corner in front, Su Hualong, who was driving the 307, of course knew what the other party's intentions were. But now Su Hualong even wants to scold the guy in front of him for being an idiot! Is Ye Feng, who has already soared to the top of the scene, so easy to suppress? Didn't you see that his own 307 was being "forced" by 03-ca behind him to almost soar to the speed limit? However, Su Hualong was still depressed and chose to stand side by side with the blue "color" Honda racing car in an attempt to block the space for Ye Feng to overtake, Su Hualong of course wanted to get a better position. But at the same time, he also had to complete the "task" from the top management of the China Automobile Federation!
"Make use of every inch of track space! I'm going to kill you! Ye Feng almost roared word by word while completing every move of his '' control car!
And when everyone was thinking about how Ye Feng would face the pressure of his hand again, the silver "colored" No. 23 car seemed to have seen through the opponent's intentions from the beginning, and it was jaw-dropping from the outside of the blue "color" Honda racing car on the outside of the track at high speed, and then at the moment when the front of the car was about to hit the guardrail, it began to slow down to the left and corner, and the silver "colored" front of the car used the advantage of speed to grab the Honda and pointed to the center of the corner, And after a suffocating sound of gold and iron grinding from the rear of the old leaf, a roaring motor roar led to 03-ca, which overtook two racing cars at the same time!
The entire Zhuhai track was suddenly completely ignited by the passion of such a scene of "naked" and "naked"!
