233 The Rivals

When Zhang Yifei was crazy overtaking other drivers, a racing car was doing the same thing behind his car, and the speed was not slow at all. Even Zhang Yifei could not get rid of him. The driver of this car was Dixon.

Zhang Yifei didn't know about Dixon's chasing step by step. In fact, since he started, he had already found Dixon following him.

But for some reason, Dixon did not choose to take the opportunity to overtake like Masa and Kubica, when Zhang Yifei was blocked by other drivers.

But since the departure, he has been following Zhang Yifei's car closely. Zhang Yifei's speed has accelerated and he has become faster. Zhang Yifei drove slowly, and he did not overtake any action behind him.

After following the race halfway through, when Zhang Yifei chose to overtake, Dixon also began to accelerate wildly and even ate and stayed in Zhang Yifei's wake.

The two cars were just in front and behind, and they were chasing crazy on the track, and in the process, they continued to surpass other drivers until they were in the lead.

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

At this time, Dixon used the wake effect to increase the speed again and narrowed the distance between Zhang Yifei. When the two cars were closest, the distance between the cars was less than 5 meters!

Are you planning to have a one-on-one fight with me?

Zhang Yifei drove Dixon in the rearview mirror and pulled the car closer, with a cold expression on his face.

After being chased and bitten by someone for most of the schedule, it was unhappy for anyone to change. However, Zhang Yifei's attention was focused on the driver who wanted to surpass him, and he had no time to deal with Dixon, who was chasing behind him.

Now there are no other opponents, so Zhang Yifei can free up his hand and teach Dixon a lesson from chasing behind him, so that he can understand that he is not so easy to follow.

Dickson in the car behind the car, under his helmet and mask, had an excited expression on his face. Just as Zhang Yifei thought, Dickson wanted to have a "fair showdown" with Zhang Yifei. Now he finally got rid of the group of people on the track, and he could exert all his strength.

Thinking of this, Dixon felt that his blood was about to boil, and finally there was a strong enough opponent on the track to fight him.

After getting close to Zhang Yifei's car, the next step was to overtake. Dixon kicked the floor oil and took advantage of the "ejection" effect brought by the racing wake to quickly change the lane on the left side of Zhang Yifei, intending to overtake.

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

Along the way, I have been surpassing others' cars. Now let's see how much Dixon is, and why can I surpass my cars!

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 predictive!

Dixon was as if he had expected Zhang Yifei's defense to change the line. He was more left-leaning than normal overtaking, and then used the acceleration effect of the "slingshot" to force the front nose of his car to the position side by side with Zhang Yifei's rear wheels.

Although there are no severe penalties for secondary line change in this era, once the front nose of the rear car is side by side with the rear wheel of the front car, it will be considered as the body of the car overlaps.

Once the body overlaps, the track rules will prohibit the drivers in front of the car and then do any behavior that blocks other drivers. For example, regardless of the curve, deliberately squeeze the opponent out of the edge of the track.

Or the driving direction changes abnormally, forcibly accelerate and change the line again to defend, greatly increasing the risk of collision, etc.

These actions will be regarded as dangerous driving behaviors. At the least, if you are punished, it is possible to be suspended if you cause a serious track accident.

At this time, Zhang Yifei did not just like a rookie driver, but was blindly trying to stop Dixon from overtaking, but simply turned the steering wheel to the right and gave up the overtaking route on the left.

Dixon naturally would not let go of this opportunity. He accelerated directly to Zhang Yifei without any politeness, and even vaguely exceeded the front of the car.

"Brother Fei was overtaken! What's the origin of this Dixon? How could he surpass Brother Fei!"

Seeing this scene, Ah Hu shouted excitedly. No matter how Zhang Yifei's ranking was in the previous two stops, he had never been surpassed. Even when facing Masa and Suarez, the powerful drivers of a large team, were not worth it at all.

But now, Dixon, who came out of nowhere, would have been fine if he had bitten Zhang Yifei before, but now he could still overtake. This scene made Ah Hu feel a little unacceptable. Zhang Yifei was the strongest driver in his heart, and it was impossible for anyone to surpass him!

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

Yamamoto Ukyo reminded Ah Hu that it is normal for super and super super on the track, not to mention that this is just a qualifying race, and the fastest lap speed is seen.

However, although Yamamoto Ukyo said that, the expression on his face was also very serious, because this was not an ordinary overtaking. Dixon behind him could be said to have followed Zhang Yifei all the way, and when he was clearly going to overtake, he could still succeed in overtaking. This is the absolute hard power.

He is truly a reserve driver trained by a giant team like Williams. Once it explodes, his strength cannot be underestimated.

"Oh, a more exciting scene on the track has appeared. What we saw before was flying overcoming our opponents crazy. As a result, he was not expecting that he was led by Dixon, who was in the rear.

"I believe that many viewers at the scene don't know about Dixon, the driver. He won the title of Kart in the UK and all Europe four years ago. But he didn't know what happened later. He did not advance to Formula Elementary and left the track for four years."

"Until this year he appeared again and joined Williams' driver development plan, Renault's European Cup is the first event that Dixon wants to conquer, so he is definitely a powerful driver!"

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

Red briefly introduced Dixon's background to the audience, which is also fate. When Red "debuted" as a commentator in his early years, he happened to explain the karting event that Dixon participated in.

At that time, Dixon left a deep impression on Red because this guy had a weird style on the track, and he was the kind of driver who was strong when facing the strong and weak when facing the weak.

If everyone is not in good shape in this game, Dixon will run lazy and feel like he is barely winning. But once a strong opponent appears, Dixon will be like a different person, with an amazing explosion in strength.

Logically speaking, if you won the All-European Kart title and entered the Elementary Formula, you will definitely be able to gain a foothold. Unexpectedly, after winning the championship, this guy disappeared and did not appear until four years later.

From the middle stream in the first stop to the runner-up in the second stop, to now competing with Zhang Yifei for the championship crazy. Red also felt the changes in Dixon's strength and performance. Four years later, this guy's style has not changed. Fei is about to welcome a strong opponent!

...

Zhang Yifei on the track looked at Dixon on the left leading the front of him. He did not show any anxious attitude and still maintained his own rhythm.

Because there will be a corner ahead, and it will be a high-speed turn left, this corner is Zhang Yifei's test run at Manicur Track, and when he encountered the first Grand bend that he almost rushed out when he slipped.

The tangent line of the high-speed corner turns left is the right and left order. In Formula racing, there is basically no shortcut to the inner lane when passing the high-speed corner.

Because whether a racing car is overtaken is not who is ahead in the corner, but who is faster in the straight after the next turn.

You should know that the starting speed of the straight is the outgoing speed of the previous bend. The outside bend seems to be longer, but the speed will be faster! The distance saved by the inside bend route is very limited, which is far from the impact of the outgoing lifting speed.

This is why Formula racing does not drift, does not have inner drainage ditches, etc., and only has accurate tangents. Unless the speed of the inner driver can be no slower than the outside, the inner corner is not as good as the outer corner.

But is this possible? The grip of tires is limited. Zhang Yifei is not a rookie. He has had a life-long trial run experience. Dixon cannot be faster than himself!

Indeed, it is a fantasy to just turn around the inside and Dixon wants to surpass Zhang Yifei. With a high-level fight, the opponent cannot make such a low-level mistake. The tangent speed on the outside is not as good as the sharp turn on the inside.

So at this time Dixon took another method, which is also a common scene in F1 racing. It is to take advantage of the point of leading when entering the inner lane, and directly change lanes in the corner to grab the line, forcing the opponent to slow down and get the line.

The specific approach is that after Dixon was in the lead position and entered the corner, he did not think about turning inside, but directly hit the steering wheel to the right, and used the lead to forcefully get stuck in front of Zhang Yifei's car, destroying Zhang Yifei's turn tangent.

Generally, when this happens, the drivers in the rear car are either forced to slow down or have to change lanes and route, and then find a way to overtake. Otherwise, the two cars will turn peacefully and the car in front will be directly ahead.
