"Yoxi, the speed of flying jumping and cutting corners just now was really fast, completely beyond the previous understanding of new drivers."

"No wonder Lin Xiangbei was able to win the title of Chinese car king and became famous in the ROC National Cup track. He is indeed worthy of being a talented driver in China!"

From the director's camera, Kazuo Kimura couldn't help but praise Lin Xiangbei after seeing the series of smooth controls.

This is the nature of Japanese worshipping strong people, because Lin Xiangbei's operation is too amazing, and it can even be said to have surpassed the level of Asian rally drivers.

At least Kazuo Kimura had never seen such accurate and rapid jump control in any Asian rally event before. He had an illusion that he was watching WRC events for a moment!

After seeing this scene, Thomas next to him had a little ashen expression on his face. His professional experience told him how amazing the value of Lin Xiangbei's control this time was.

After all, Australian professional racing is the strongest in the narrow Asia-Pacific region. Not to mention rallying events, even first-class F1 drivers like Mark Weber have appeared in F1, while Japanese Kobayashi Kembu may not even be considered a second-rate in F1.

Professional knowledge and standards made him unable to belittle Lin Xiangbei's control just now, but he couldn't accept it psychologically. Why can a Chinese new driver be so strong?

This is no longer a matter of performance. Even if you give Clock a super level of performance, you have never seen such precise control in previous games!

"It's true that the speed is very good, but there is still a long race in the race. The Chinese newcomers obviously have no idea of ​​protecting the tires. In subsequent events, as the tires wear out, the grip will drop significantly."

Thomas finally found a possible hidden danger for Lin Xiangbei, that is, in order to pursue the ultimate cornering speed, he actually had a lot of meaningless swings during the curve drift.

You should know that although the nail tires of rally racing cars are all made of special metal nails, they are actually not as good as traditional rubber snow tires in terms of strength and wear resistance.

If the road environment is muddy or "soft" enough, it's fine, but if you encounter some hard gravel, it's easy to wear out the nails.

Once the nails fall almost the same, you have to face two options: either you have excellent driving skills and don’t care. If you drive it into the designated pit area, you will get 20 minutes of repair time, or you will have to end the whole day of the competition and get 45 minutes of repair time.

But I guess no driver can last for such a long time. After all, this is not a loss of grip on one or two corners, but a dozen kilometers of stages, where there may be no grip on hundreds of corners. Who dares to guarantee that he will not make mistakes?

So you have to face the second option, that is, take out the spare tire from the car and replace it. The whole process may take 1 to 2 minutes. If you can achieve the ultimate cooperation between Loeb and his navigator Daniel, you may be able to completely change the tire within one minute, just like the Red Bull F1 team, which will ultimately compress the tire change time to less than 2 seconds when you enter the station.

However, when this is used, it is difficult for most car crews to do it, and even if it is done, one minute is enough to lose the championship.

This is why the old alcoholic always emphasizes the reason for protecting the pregnancy in rally. Many things are not that he is willing to be stable and conservative, but more of them think of the consequences in advance.

"I think Chinese driver Bei must have considered this problem. He also installed two regular snow tires, which are the backup."

Kazuo Kimura helped Lin Xiangkei explain, and he had noticed that Lin Xiangkei used a relatively rare cross-match solution very early. You should know that the Sapporo track has ice and snow almost all over the entire Sapporo track, and there is no complicated terrain and road conditions change, so there is no need to consider non-mainstream and unpopular cross-match solutions.

On the contrary, this solution will reduce the grip of the car on the ice and snowy roads and increase the difficulty of handling, which is not so friendly to new riders.

However, as Lin Xiangbei's speed increased, he suddenly realized that this might be the backhand. The grip of conventional snow tires is not as good as nail tires, but it is far superior to nail tires in terms of wear resistance.

Even if the nail tires are worn out badly, at least the snow tires can provide a certain amount of grip so that they will not slip like bald tires.

Before the game, many people thought Lin Xiangbei was a pure newcomer. He only saw the speed of the first floor. Unexpectedly, he had already seen the fifth floor. It was so amazing!

Lin Xiangbei couldn't know what Kimura Kazuka was thinking. If he had known, he would probably give him a thumbs up and praise him, "You are such a fucking talent, I didn't even think of something, but you helped me think of it in advance?"

"Can he stabilize the racing with snow tires? Do he really think it's Loeb or Ogil's level?"

Thomas sneered at this statement. Most drivers find it difficult to stabilize the car's slippage on the snow when the two nail tires are crossed. Lin Xiangbei's excessive swing actually shows a certain problem, and he has no way to absolutely control the car.

If you don’t even have these two nail tires and rely on the grip of the two snow tires alone, then it is estimated that only the "Car God" can control it. Is this Japanese commentator so funny that he was shocked by the accidental control of the Chinese newcomer and actually said such words without professionalism?

Hearing Thomas' words, Kazuo Kimura's expression on his face was a little awkward, and it seemed that this kind of manipulation was a bit exaggerated.

However, just as the two of them were talking, the blue Subaru Ge had already passed the ss3 stage timing point. Lin Xiangbei ranked first again with a total time of 20 minutes, 17 seconds, 61 seconds, and led the second-ranked British driver Mick by 2.54 seconds!

The 2.54-second gap is the biggest score difference between the top two drivers in the current position, and it is also in the most difficult SS3 stage. Lin Xiangbei's speed soared, resulting in such a large-scale leading time.

To be honest, this result appeared, which once again broke through many people's previous cognition and imagination, because many people who understand the terrain of the Sapporo track are very clear in their hearts that the SSS3 stage can be said to be the time trial stage that tests the driver's hard strength, and it can even be said to be the place where the winner and loser is.

All drivers will show their strongest strength to ensure a lead in this stage.

It can also be seen from the second place that Mick is the strongest British driver on paper, has begun to make efforts to win the title of top-ranked.

But maybe even he himself didn't expect that Chinese driver Lin Xiangbei would be so fierce to exert force, and it also increased the time spent on the race that he had been stalking tightly before!

"Baga! When did the Chinese drivers become so powerful? Is there something unexpected going on in this opening match?"

A Japanese audience who had been full of confidence before, could not believe the numbers above when they looked at the top of the list that was refreshed on the big screen.

With all the drivers exerting their strength, Lin Xiangbei can still lead and add the word "yaoyao". If this is not a hard-powered driving skill, it is simply a lie to himself.

But they couldn't understand why Chinese drivers who didn't even have the qualifications to participate in the A8 group last year were able to top the list after a year, and even had the possibility of winning the opening championship.

And more importantly, this year's event has a strong value. With the participation of accurate WRC driver Mike and Japanese Rally champion Katsuda Fan Yan, it is even stronger than last year. Isn't this able to suppress the sharpness of the Chinese newcomer?

"It's not an accident. Before the road test, Xiang Beijun had always obtained the shortest time. But at that time, no one believed that he was so strong, and more because he thought that other drivers were not exerting their strength."

Another audience member said the essence. As long as he recalled the previous road survey and test drive, he could realize that Lin Xiangbei was not actually a sudden emergence and had already run out of the shortest time.

It’s just that this kind of achievement and strength has been ignored by many people intentionally or unintentionally, and now I feel shocked.

"The ss3 stage is the most challenging stage and the most challenging stage for drivers' driving skills. As long as Lin Xiangbei does not make any mistakes in the back, he has the possibility of becoming a champion."

"It's theoretically, but who can make sure he doesn't make mistakes in the rally?"

Mistakes are always topics that cannot be avoided in rallying, which is different from the venue competition F1.

A strong enough F1 driver, if there is no interference from the opponent, there will be no mistakes in the simulator, and it should be a standard skill for top drivers.

However, even if there is no opponent interference in the rally, there will be more or less mistakes, but it will be determined whether it will affect the final result.

Many drivers perform very amazingly in rally events, but they often feel that they are not those who are fancy and whistle. So Lin Xiangbei can only say that he performs very strongly, but he is far from meeting the standard of winning the championship.

At the same time, Lin Xiangbei ran out the first time in the ss3 stage, which was also transmitted to the ears of all drivers through the team voice system.

There are shocks, accidents, dissatisfactions, and even jealousy. But the one who may be hit the most is the driver Mick from the UK.

In the first two time trial stages, various drivers led the game. Mick's ranking has always been stable third, which is somewhat inconsistent with his identity and status.

But Mick never cared about these things. His team's tactics had been planned for a long time. The ss3 stage began to officially make efforts, and at the same time opened the gap with other drivers, and then led the entire game!

In fact, the speed of Mick SS3 stages has increased rapidly, directly surpassing the Japanese home driver Hiroshi Yanagawa, who ranked first in the past. From being behind for about two seconds to being more than one second ahead, it is equivalent to being faster than the opponent in a single stage by more than 3 seconds. This is actually a relatively big gap.

But he had never thought that there was someone who could lead him by 2.54 seconds. Doesn’t this mean that Lin Xiangbei directly led Yokoto Yokoto in a single stage and was nearly 5 seconds ahead of Yokoto Yokoto?

Can anyone be so powerful? No drivers with WRC back can do it!

This speed and performance completely subverted Mick's perception, and he even confirmed it with the navigator Paul who was sitting next to him.

"Paul, is it really North at the moment?"

"Yes, he may be better than everyone expected!"

Paul gave a positive answer. Lin Xiangbei's performance had already shocked the audience. As long as he did not make any mistakes, at least he would not be able to run before the opening game.

"I feel that he has run out of the speed of a WRC driver, which is really unreasonable."

Compared with other drivers participating in this competition, they were just spinning around the Asian rally. Mick really came into contact with the more powerful rally drivers in Europe. Even himself, after making gold in the Asia-Pacific rally this time, he would directly advance to WRC and enter the highest palace of rally.

So he knew very well what level the WRC driver was at. Lin Xiangbei was able to lead him so much, which proved that he also entered the threshold of WRC!

"This Chinese newcomer was the biggest dark horse in the ROC National Cup track before, and now he has begun to show his dark horse posture again."

After Paul has read Lin Xiangbei's competition information in detail after catching the road, he even watched his competition video on the ROC National Cup track.

Just speaking on the line, Paul even believes that Lin Xiangbei has reached the world's top level, and his final full-speed drift control is also extremely powerful, not inferior to the more powerful rally drivers.

However, the entertainment venue competition was not convincing enough and the results of the main competition were not supported, so no one knew how he performed in the end.

However, compared to the contempt of other drivers, Paul attached great importance to Lin Xiangbei and even included him on the list of lurking opponents.

Now that the new rookie has finally begun to show its fangs, it is time to put him in the opponent's position.

"Dark horse?"

When he heard this word, a fierce fighting spirit appeared on Mick's face. If he wanted to become a dark horse, he naturally had to step on the seed driver.

Even though Mick is relatively calm in his mentality, he cannot accept that he loses to a newcomer.

Lin Xiangbei can perform amazingly in one time trial stage. Mick doesn't believe that Lin Xiangbei can have this level in all the next time trial stages.

If so, then there is no need to run in the opening match of this Asia-Pacific Rally. This is completely a dimensional reduction blow for WRC-level drivers, and it is not the level that WRC drivers with low rankings can run!

After the ss3 stage, it is not a continuous ss time trial stage, but a connected rs ordinary section.

This is the average road. Drivers will drive racing cars like ordinary vehicles on the road, and need to abide by traffic rules and traffic lights. Time out and lateness are absolutely not allowed.

This process is equivalent to giving the driver a buffer time to calm his state and mentality. However, some careless drivers will also have problems in this stage, resulting in extra penalty time.

Although Lin Xiangbei was the first time a newcomer participated in the competition, he did not make any low-level mistakes. He prepared to reach the timing point and started the next ss time trial stage.

However, with the development of the ss4 stage, Mick thought that something absolutely impossible happened. The speed Lin Xiangbei showed was not a flash in the pan. In the next few consecutive stages, he always maintained the first title, and also widened the time gap to the 8-second gap!

This means that Lin Xiangbei can achieve an advantage of more than 1 second in every time trial stage facing Mick, a quasi-wrc driver!

When this result appears again and again, everyone's mentality goes from being shocked at the beginning to a thought that you didn't dare to think about before.
Chapter completed!
