143 Changing History(1/2)
After Reed started, he subconsciously looked at the parallel track next to him, wanting to pay attention to Lin Xiangbei's starting speed and see how much he can lead his opponent.
As a result, this glance almost made him doubt his life because he saw the taillights of Lin Xiangbei's ROC racing car!
Do you look at the taillights when you start?
Reed couldn't believe that all this was true. He couldn't say how perfect the start was, but it was definitely not a major mistake.
Perhaps the only "weakness" is that this kind of ROC event is the first time he has started on the track. Even the ROC National Cup event is the first time that Reed has represented the Australian national team.
Insufficient experience may bring great disadvantages when facing those world champions.
But now the problem is that Lin Xiangbei, a Chinese kid, also participated in the ROC National Cup for the first time. And in terms of event resume, it is not too much to call him a newcomer. How could he adapt to ROC racing so quickly?
Could it be that defeating Vettel before was not a surprise, but that this kid really has strength?
impossible!
Reed denied this idea in his heart. Although Vettel has only been in the F1 event for two years, he can barely be considered a newcomer.
But he has already won the second place in the world of F1 this year. He is a real peak-level driver. Why can Lin Xiangbei, a Chinese newcomer, compare with the newcomer in F1? Even non-mainstream field competitions like Roc!
With this confusion and conflicting thinking, Reed clearly had an imbalance in his mentality when he entered the first corner.
Not only did he not recover or stabilize the gap between Lin Xiangbei at the beginning, he was even greatly shaken away again. It seemed that the two opponents running on the track now, Lin Xiangbei was the champion of the Australian V8 Super Championship, and Reed was a Chinese "rookie".
"Wdnmd, is Lin Xiangbei so strong?"
A live audience couldn't help but exclaim, this year's ROC event is really a bit incomprehensible.
From the 1985 Beijing-Hong Kong Professional Rally to the present, China Professional Racing, let alone the showdown with world drivers, even in Asia, it may still be ranked behind Japan, Malaysia and Thailand.
Needless to say, Japan is a top-notch player. Except for the F1 level, you can compete with European drivers in other events.
Especially in the field of automobile factory teams, it is not too much to call it world-class, including Honda in Formula, Mitsubishi in Rally, Subaru in Le Mans, Mazda in Le Mans, and Toyota.
It was simply a fight against the whole world with the power of a country!
Europe can compete with Japan in terms of factory teams, Britain and France are all a bit worse, and it may be the only thing left for Germany to play 50 or 50.
Of course, all of this came to an abrupt end after entering the 21st century. Other companies made great strides forward, only Japanese automakers were turning back frantically, and all events were defeated. Basically, the three super events under Fia cannot see the brilliant scenes of the Japanese factory team.
As for Malaysia and Thailand, these two countries are nothing in 2020. However, around the millennium, before China's economy exploded sharply, professional racing performance was still good, and F1 drivers were born.
Especially the Malaysian RV race, referred to as "Ma Fang", is called Asia's top RV race. In addition to Japan, it is also the second F1 Grand Prix track in Asia, which is indeed the early Malaysian professional racing car, and it can be said to be firmly in the second place.
But even professional drivers from these countries dare not say that they can steadily crush the Australian champion, but Lin Xiangbei has done it now.
This is really not like the strength that Chinese drivers should have!
"This is the Australian V8 Super Championship, one of the strongest RV events in the Asia-Pacific region. Was Lin Xiangbei beaten?"
A Chinese car fan next to him agreed after hearing this.
Although Reed is far inferior to other world champion drivers in terms of fame, he is still top-notch in the Asia-Pacific region.
Whether Lin Xiangbei is the strongest in China or not has not been tested by the competition. The result is that he can beat him to this point is no different from slaughtering a pig.
"The previous match against Vettel was called a dark horse upset, so what should this kind of scene be called now?"
"Strength crush!"
The last audience spoke out everyone's voice.
It seems that there are not so many reasons and reasons. Lin Xiangbei is now overwhelming his opponent.
Why is it normal for Chinese drivers to be beaten by foreign powerhouses, and Chinese drivers to overwhelm the Australian champions in turn, which is like a supernatural incident?
Lin Xiangbei even outperformed the last round of the f1 world runner-up. Is it impossible to win an Australian championship now?
No!
After breaking through the distrust of Chinese drivers in his heart, the audience no longer had any scruples or hesitation, and started cheering for Lin Xiangbei like a tsunami.
"Fuck Australians and let them understand what the strength of the Chinese car king is!"
"Go to the semi-finals quarterfinals!"
"Create history, Lin Xiangbei, we are not weaker than people!"
The crazy shouts began to sound, and Lin Xiangbei indeed gave the Chinese audience the scene great confidence and excitement.
What I thought was impossible was the realization of the moment!
The shouts echoed in the sky at the scene, and even the commentary room could be vaguely heard that He Bing and Pan Yong had never seen a Chinese-foreign showdown duel, and such similar scenes occurred in the commentary.
You should know that in order not to be crushed too badly, domestic and international groups have even created strange domestic and international groups, and even the displacement of racing cars is different.
The international group drove the mainstream 2.0l displacement racing, and the domestic group drove the 1.6l small displacement racing, as if it was two different events.
It is precisely because of this factor that not only attracts the attention of the vast majority of people outside the circle, even car fans themselves are unwilling to watch domestic racing cars. It would be fine if there is no fierce confrontation, but even ordinary confrontation between China and foreign countries is difficult to see.
In fact, most car fans are not afraid of losing. They prefer to see Chinese drivers and challenge the world's strongest ones.
Moreover, not only car fans have this idea, but also the audience of competitive sports such as football fans, boxing fans and other competitive sports want to see exciting confrontations between China and abroad. Even the e-sports events with increasing influence in later generations are no exception.
Not to mention dota2, League of Legends and other winners, even if the weakest Cs:go is almost impossible to win the championship even though he knows that he will play abroad.
But compared to the domestic chickens pecking each other, people still hope to see them enter the World Championship.
Because only by fighting against the strong can you become stronger!
Lin Xiangbei has not only fought against the strong, but also defeated the strong. This is where he is nb!
"Pan Yong, how long hasn't I seen this passionate scene? Lin Xiangbei really ignited the speed and passion of the car fans."
Hearing He Bing's words, Pan Yong nodded and replied.
"This is the passionate scene that motorsports should have. We have been absent for too long, but I have a premonition that such scenes will not be uncommon in the future."
"Lin Xiangbei is like the rising star in the night sky of the Chinese car world. One day, the entire night sky may light up the entire night sky!"
He Bing said in agreement, but in fact he wanted to talk about the night sky of the world even more.
But the words were changed. After all, this is not a professional point competition. Even if you defeat a world champion driver abroad, you cannot prove your absolute strength, but only prove your relative strength.
So before Lin Xiangbei reaches this level, don’t talk too slowly. If Zhongyong is injured one day, it may become a regret for the entire Chinese car world.
Lin Xiangbei on the track had already thrown Reed for more than a second after one lap.
Not to mention on such parallel tracks, even on standard tracks, if this gap occurs in multiple curve areas, it may be thrown so that you can't even see the taillights of the car.
To be honest, if you can run such a gap, you can basically confirm that the two drivers are not on the same level. After two laps, Lin Xiangbei may eventually have to throw Reed away for 3 seconds, or even more!
In this duel in history, Dong Hebin also lost Reed for more than 3 seconds, and won a key point for the Chinese team with an absolute lead. In the end, he reached the semi-finals of the semi-finals under the gaze of everyone not being optimistic about, avoiding the fate of a round of games.
Lin Xiangbei's absolute strength may be similar to Dong Hebin in the same period of history.
But in terms of mentality and competition experience, he can say that he beat Dong Hebin, so it is no wonder that he crushed Reed.
"Reid, what the hell is going on, why are you so much behind?"
Seeing the lap come out in time, the Australian team strategy team had a collapsed mentality.
In theory, in the ROC National Cup event, the team strategy teams are all teams of drivers. They will not be too serious in running entertainment events, nor will they put too much pressure on their drivers.
Many drivers even gave up the competition when they were significantly behind and showed some fancy racing skills to give back to the audience to get applause.
But Reed's loss was too ugly. It would be fine if he couldn't get key points from the Chinese rookie, but he could still be led by the opponent for more than 1 second in a lap. When did Australian Racing have such a humiliating scene?
So even if it was the team strategy group, they were a little uncontrollable and began to ask what happened to Reed.
They still don't believe that Australian V8 champion drivers like Reed will be inferior to Lin Xiangbei in hard power.
Facing the question from the team strategy group, Reed had no idea how to answer, and his mind was blank.
When Lin Xiangbei first led the way, Reed considered catching up, but the gap was constantly widening on every corner. After running in a single lap, he was thrown so much that he couldn't even see the taillights of the car. He was not a match of the same level at all.
Everyone was speculating whether something happened to Reed, or that he would run away like this if he was careless. But only he knew that he had tried his best and could not catch up with Lin Xiangbei, but he could not escape this Chinese boy!
The first lap opened up such a big gap, not to mention the second lap. Basically, Reed was already in a state of giving up, and he couldn't catch up with Lin Xiangbei in front at all.
In the end, Lin Xiangbei, a Chinese rally in the event resume, directly beat Australian V8 champion Reed in more than 4 seconds in the key battle in the semi-finals, creating the biggest gap in the ROC National Cup so far!
"We won!"
"This is after Han Han, Lin Xiangbei won the competition against the Australian team again, and the Chinese team entered the ROC semi-finals!"
He Bing's announcement made tens of thousands of Chinese audience members stand up excitedly.
Dreams are one thing, and reality is another.
This kind of scene can be said that a dream comes true. The two drivers of the Chinese team have made a bloody path in the world's top confrontation and become the semi-final team of the ROC National Cup, without a round of games!
"It's so fucking fun. I didn't expect that in such a level of events, I could see the scene of Chinese drivers crushing their opponents!"
"Fourth quarter! This should be the best result in Asia, and the Japanese team has never done it!"
"Japan still wants to finish the semi-finals. They haven't even been in the ROC National Cup qualifiers a few times!"
"Lin Xiangbei, you are a genius driver in China, and one day you will become a genius driver in the world!"
The audience was so excited that they bought tickets and entered the game, they were ready for the first round of the Chinese team. After all, in the ROC National Cup event, even the strongest Japanese team in Asia rarely broke through the qualifiers and became one of the eight strongest national teams.
This time, the Chinese team is simply trying to get a bargain at home. If they really go to the qualifiers to compete for quotas, they probably won’t be able to dominate Asia, let alone compete with European strong teams.
