Chapter 30 Let Me Down!(1/3)
Donald did not feel lucky, but instead felt that the guy behind him was too terrifying.
The fact that Fann Winston's courage to drop his starting ranking shows that in his heart, he is easy to surpass himself who runs ahead of him, Renault's Penny, and McLaren's Duchoni are not even considered an opponent.
Donald clasped the steering wheel tightly and accelerated to widen the distance from the rear.
"Vanne Winston, I see how far you can get this time!"
Donald gritted his teeth.
But after five laps, Winston kept narrowing the distance with Donald like an arrow, and then turned around quickly than ordinary people, quickly closed the line, and completed it in one go, surpassing Donald.
Donald was sweating coldly behind him: Damn it! No matter how good the performance of Ferrari is, you are not playing like this!
But no matter what, the advantage Winston set for him to block Enzo was decisive.
In the following laps, Winston's overtaking continued. Duchoni defeated in the heart of the corner. Winston went out of the corner at high speed, which caused screams from the audience.
Immediately after Winston surpassed the textbook-style entry, Penny, who was close to Renault's team after changing tires, overtaking the second time on the corner, can be described as arrogant.
"Winston is Winston, and his overtaking is always exciting!" A photographer sighed, "But don't you find it strange? According to the strength of Winston and Ferrari, his qualifying competition this time seemed to deliberately lower his car speed. Moreover, he could compete with Donald of Sauber in the first five laps, but it was very...how to say, very quiet?"
"Because I'm too confident in myself... I'm even more curious, this time, Evan Hunter of Marcus's team can still achieve another success. My feeling is that he has found his own state. As long as this state continues, he will have a great impact on experts like Penny and Duchoni... And it should not be mediocre people who can favor Winston." Audrey said.
"You mean Hunter and Winston, you always feel like they don't have any intersection... I don't know how they became friends?"
At this time, Indian Power driver Meden was being pressed. His opponent was very skilled in the line and had already forced him to make a mistake on three consecutive corners.
The next lap, the guy's overtaking became more and more bold, and he made a perfect turn. Looking at his long-distance figure, Maiden actually felt relieved.
"That... seems to be Evan Hunter from Marcus?" Maiden sighed.
He remembered that he heard two Williams drivers chatting before the race, and talked about the young player's double surpassing at Silverstone. After surpassing Williams for two drivers in a row, he fell behind because of a tire blowout. Unexpectedly, this guy could rise up for the second time. After leaving the repair station, he once again surpassed the two Williams drivers who were far ahead. This is embarrassing for any team.
Maiden breathed out. Such an opponent was very powerful, and it was not embarrassing to lose to him.
"He's up to ninth."
"Well... there is still a lot of time." Audrey narrowed her eyes.
I just saw your toughness and boldness, but Hunter…what on you attracted Winston?
Williams Racing driver Colt found that the guy chasing him changed from Indian power to Marcus Hunter, and he felt like he was unlucky.
Thinking of this guy surpassing himself twice in the last game, Colt complained in his heart: Boy, should you just give way to you!
But how is it possible!
Colt held his position to the death. If he was overtaken by this little devil this time, he would have no choice but to mess up in the convoy!
Hunter's heart was also tense. He had to pass Colt, he had to rush over!
Donald is still far ahead! Not only do he have to surpass him, but he also has to get the top five!
Colt originally wanted to take advantage of the racing performance advantage to throw Hunter away in continuous corners, but he didn't expect Hunter to delay the brakes and keep biting tight.
Another lap passed, Colt's spirit was almost exhausted by Hunter, and he made a mistake in defending driving and was surpassed by Hunter.
"Oh shit……"
"The driver who was chased by him must be very painful." The photographer's eyes never left the camera for a moment. "It has risen to eighth place... Going further forward is Enzo of the Lotus team!"
"He once surpassed Enzo. In terms of self-confidence, perhaps Hunter's confidence is higher than Enzo," said Audrey.
When Hunter entered the station and changed his tires, he kicked off the chasing of Enzo.
Hunter's heartstring was almost about to be pulled to his limit, and he knew he was getting closer and closer to his goal.
Enzo's defense and routes are more mature and stable than his previous opponents.
Hunter knew very well that the last time he could surpass him was because Enzo underestimated his opponent, but this time it was impossible! On two consecutive corners, the two cars had a fierce competition, which made the audience nervous to the point of heart bursting, fearing that Hunter would lose control and rush out of the track.
Marcus covered his chest and gritted his teeth. Hunter did not surpass Enzo for a moment, and he did not dare to breathe for a moment.
This competition was eight consecutive laps, and Hunter's every turn was accurate and smooth every time he made a move, which put great pressure on veteran Enzo.
The more Enzo wants to get rid of Hunter, the tighter Hunter will follow and the more stable the driving.
"Is this guy really participating in Formula 1 in the first year?" Enzo was obviously ready and the little devil would suddenly rush out, but it was only now that he realized that imagination and reality are different - this little devil can always surpass his imagination.
Feeling the tendency of Hunter to overtake again, Enzo had to block him, but unexpectedly it was just a fake move. Hunter skillfully shuttled through his inside, and countless spectators stood up and applauded, and Hunter rushed to seventh place like this!
The photographer raised his hand and pulled Audrey beside him, and said with extreme excitement: "Hey... have you seen it? It was so beautiful just now!"
Two seconds later, Audrey realized that the one who defeated the famous star Enzo was really Hunter.
"There are more than twenty laps left. Can he catch up with Donald?"
"He can!" Audrey was also surprised. Why did she suddenly feel so confident in this young man?
When Donald found out that Hunter was catching up, he couldn't help but sigh-Enzo didn't stop that little devil in the end!
Donald was overwhelmed by the unwillingness to think of his loss to the kid in the last game - he still wanted to know that ginger is always the hottest!
Donald has been running before Hunter, and he knew very well that he had to have patience and perseverance to face Hunter. He wanted to treat Hunter's every attempt to overtake as a completely different opponent to defend.
For eight laps, Donald defended Hunter overtook twelve times, and this competition became the biggest highlight of this game. The audience was shouting, and the media on the scene were in a tense mood, so did Hunter.
He said to himself: Hunter, Hunter! You are already tense enough, it's time!
Hunter followed Donald on the straight road, seized the vacuum opportunity, and overtook it at the moment of entering the bend!
“Oh oh oh!”
Amazement came one after another.
But entering the corner at high speed almost made Hunter lose control, and even Donald was frightened when he looked at it!
Hunter controlled the direction, and the front of the car rotated along the outside line, passing through the curve like a drift, turning wonderfully, and driving into the straight.
"My mother... this kid is so lucky!" the photographer sighed.
But Audrey was completely stunned when she watched this scene.
"Audrey! Audrey! What's wrong with you?"
"That's not... it's not luck." Audrey spoke after a long time.
"He almost finished rushing out of the track!"
"He can follow Enzo for more than ten laps without making any mistakes, bite Donald and not let go of eight laps. He is a guy with absolute patience... so he won't be impulsive. Everything just now was as expected! Don't you remember? On Silverstone, Winston surpassed the Great White Shark Charles in the same way!"
"Oh...my God..."
That overtaking was thrilling and exciting, and it was a perfect combination of Ferrari's super performance and driver's technology. In the eyes of many people, it was difficult to imitate and copy, but I didn't expect that this young man could do it in such a tense competition!
The colleague's amazement made no sense to Audrey. All she thought about now was the end of the game. She must interview Hunter!
At this time, Duchoni, who was ahead of Hunter, entered the station early as he expected. After a nervous tire change, Duchoni frantically wanted to widen the distance with Hunter.
"Does he want to surpass Duchoni..." Marcus held his chin and frowned, "Or should we let him strive to maintain his current ranking? If he wants to surpass Duchoni, he will definitely need to enter the station..."
"McDie was slapped by Winston just now. After Winston surpassed him, he did not grasp the direction and rushed into the buffer zone... After starting again, he had already fallen to sixteen. If Hunter can hold the sixth place, this point will be very good for us." The technical officer analyzed from the perspective of maximizing the team's interests.
"But are you willing? Formula One is like sailing against the current. Almost every driver who only wants to hold the position will be overtaken in the end. Behind Hunter is Donald who is trying to regain his position. Only when he runs faster and faster can he truly defend his so-called position."
"I understand, we inform Hunter to enter the station! Everyone is ready!"
With only the last ten laps left in the race, Marcus's decision was quite bold.
With such a tense rhythm, Hunter still entered the station accurately. All the technicians quickly replaced the tires as if they were on a clockwork. After Hunter returned to the track, he began to chase Duchoni.
The audience was excited and watched the two cars almost turn round. After five laps, Duchoni and Hunter competed no less than ten times. It made people feel like they were dying!
Hunter decisively delayed the brakes and merged into the corner with a desperate momentum with Duchoni.
"He's crazy!" Marcus's eyes widened.
Both the technicians and technicians looked up at the scene on the screen.
Hunter was about to lose control. At the moment when they couldn't help but close their eyes, Hunter tightened the steering wheel, pulled back the line, made a strong turn, and rushed to the front of Duchoni.
Cheers were heard all the time, and the entire Marcus team was boiling!
Duchoni tried to regain his position, but unexpectedly, Hunter drove steadily. Duchoni tried countless times in the remaining three laps, but failed to overtake.
When Hunter crossed the finish line, his heart seemed to be about to stop.
He gasped hard, Hunter's ears buzzed again and again.
It was not until his mind calmed down that he heard the voice from Marcus on the radio, and all kinds of cheers.
"Hey...who will I get today?"
"Hunt! You are fifth! Fifth! This is your best result since you entered F1! It is also the best result our team has achieved in the past two years!" His voice was excited and trembling.
Fifth place...so good.
Hunter closed his eyes and finally smiled with his lips pursed.
As long as he can still make the top five in the next two races, the big iceberg of Van Winston will dance for him!
It feels very good to think about it!
“Who is the champion of this site?”
