Reborn F1 Forza Motorsport

Chapter 13 Before the Game
When it comes to overtaking, it is a very important part of F1, and it is also the charm of the whole F1.

The core of offensive and defensive warfare is overtaking and preventing overtaking.

If you are brought into the opponent's driving rhythm during overtaking, you will already be at a disadvantage in offense and defense.

Therefore, maintaining one's own rhythm in offense and defense is a road that a driver must go through.

"Yang still needs you to start at the end of the grid tomorrow. I need to see your improvement in overtaking rhythm. The time is tight. There are still two days of practice and the track will be closed on Thursday."

"I will."

The karting track does not need to be closed a month or a few months in advance for testing like F1. Basically, the academy track is used as a competition track.

Overtaking training is always very difficult. After two days, Yang Hao felt that his energy consumption was greater than before.

Asked a technician for this.

"It's normal to be exhausted because you need more energy and distraction from your opponent and your car."

"In the past, when you started at the top of the grid, you only needed to pay attention to the gap between yourself and No.2 at the beginning, but it is the opposite when you start at the end of the grid."

"More energy to observe the opponent's mistakes rather than completely on the track."

"This is also very difficult for you novices. You need more games to practice."

Yang Hao listened to most of it, but he also knew that he had to improve himself through competitions instead of training games.

Then the only way to find a way to avoid such a predicament is to get the first pole position as much as possible in qualifying.

He needs a lot of practice these two days.

Time soon came before school on Thursday, the technician said happily.

"Yang, the training is good. I don't think there will be any big problems tomorrow, so don't worry."

.........

During dinner at night, I asked my mother, "Mom, will you come to my practice match on Friday?"

"I have to work, but I'll be here on Saturday. No classes tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is all about games. School is closed."

"Does it still start at nine o'clock and end at 03:30?"

"I don't know after school, maybe sooner or later."

"Then I'll wait for you all the time."

"Ah."

Before going to bed, mother came to Yang Hao's window and kissed Yang Hao's forehead. "Tomorrow, come on. Good night."

"Good night, Mom."

On Friday mornings, the school was less bustling with kids than usual.

Because it is a home game, there is no need to go to register and check the vehicle by yourself.

The entrance to the off-site maintenance area was extremely lively, with many strangers he had never seen before and a bunch of children of his age.

"Yang, I'm here." With a very familiar voice, Yang looked over and it turned out to be a technician.

"I am responsible for the maintenance of your car today and tomorrow, you just need to feel at ease to participate in the competition."

"Ah."

With the guarantee of the technician, Yang Hao relieved a lot of pressure.After all, if a driver does not have logistical support, he needs to spend a lot of time and energy from the beginning of registration.

When it comes to the game, it is likely that there is no more focus on the game.

It can be seen that many children are helped by their fathers or mothers as logistics technicians.

Children's competitions are always messy, and it took some time for the organizer's staff to divide up their respective areas.

"Aren't your parents coming to watch the game?" the technician asked Yang Hao in his spare time.

"My mother is coming tomorrow, she needs to go to work today. My father can't come in Russia."

"Russia? All right."

Today is the morning and afternoon of practice and qualifying.

"Don't be stressed, you can run the game as you usually do. One hour of practice in the morning to feel the atmosphere of the game, and you won't be nervous in the afternoon."

"Don't collide in practice or you'll get a penalty pole."

"At this time, the gestures of the semaphore must be clearly memorized, and the hoop flag must not be the same as when you were in the training match."

The technician explained a lot of things.

"Come on. Believe in yourself."

"Be confident."

Before the start of the game, the technician patted Yang Hao hard.

"come on!"

The practice session started after the green light, and the boys gradually made their way out of the pit lane for practice sessions.

After driving into the track, Yang Hao became nervous for no reason.He almost slowed down and rear-ended the child behind him, and the child behind him was dissatisfied and uttered a national curse and gave him a middle finger.

"Watch out! fk!"

Fortunately, Yang Hao gradually adapted to the environment later, and did not encounter any more incidents of being sprayed.One hour is quite tiring, after all, there are twelve other drivers speeding on the track together.

It is extremely hot at ten o'clock and noon in the UK, and the racing suit and helmet made Yang Hao gradually hot.

Fortunately, a pleasant broadcast came.

"It's time for the practice session, please go back to the pit lane, please go back to the pit lane."

Yang Hao in the maintenance area took off his helmet with difficulty and climbed out of the car.

"Yang, that's great. Your lap time is the fastest in practice."

Yang Hao didn't notice this at all, he just felt extremely thirsty.

"Is there any water, I'm very thirsty."

"Of course, I have prepared a lot."

The technician took out a bottle of water from nowhere and handed it to Yang Hao.

Yang Hao drank it all in one gulp.

"Yang, I believe you will perform better this afternoon."

Yang Hao was asked by the technician not to eat too much lunch at noon, but the food in the school cafeteria is generally not very tasty.Today, because of the game day, the school cafeteria is still open as usual.

One p.m.Lap qualifying begins.

Lap qualifying is based on the start of the individual lap record in the pit lane.

Yang Hao played in fifth place.

Two of the top five rushed out of the corner when cornering, and Yang Hao felt that the pressure was huge.

"Yang Hao, please go."

The broken Chinese made Yang Hao stunned for a moment before he realized it, and entered the track after the check was correct.

From the view of the technician on the screen, Yang Hao did very well, and there was no problem in entering or exiting the corner.

As soon as he jumped out of the car after driving back to the pit lane, he was given a bear hug by the mechanic.

"bravo!"

"You are outstanding, I knew you were outstanding, did you know that you are more than five seconds ahead of No.2!"

Yang Hao's heart was beating very fast. This was his first competition, and he had no idea what he was doing just now.

"Technician, I think I can take off the helmet first, it's a bit boring."

"ok, ok."

The mechanic knows what it means to start first, and he also knows the probability of winning the championship.

Then just wait for the rest of the seven to finish the race to know the result.

Half an hour later, after checking by the staff of the organizing committee, the first pole position belonged to Yang Hao.

All the drivers and accompanying personnel turned their heads to look at the yellow-skinned pole driver.

"bravo!"

The technician was even happier than Yang Hao, as if he won the championship of tomorrow's race, he hugged Yang Hao in circles.

"Your first race really made me feel the talent gap. If it weren't for the race I signed up for, I would think you've already participated in many kart races, Yang."

"I think maybe it's because I'm more familiar with the track."

After the game, the two got together to start the review and what needs to be paid attention to tomorrow.

"You're right. After all, home matches always have an advantage, but it also requires talent, doesn't it? I think Yang, don't hold back tomorrow. Show your talent as a talented driver to the audience, and maybe you can get unexpected results. s return."

Karting competitions, like football competitions, will have experts like scouts looking for future stars for the team, while F1 scouts only focus on whether the champion driver is a flash in the pan or whether it is a real talent driver.

They will also be hidden in the stands just like the spectators.

"Well, I will."

"See you tomorrow, Yang, go home early and rest, I need to check your vehicle again."

"The technician also went home early to rest."

After a polite goodbye, I saw my mother at the door.

"It seems that school is over early." Mother pointed to the watch on her wrist, 2:40.

"The qualifying session in the afternoon is over soon. There is nothing else going on."

"What time is the game tomorrow, I need to call Aunt Brenda."

"One p.m."

"Okay, go to bed early tonight. What's for dinner tonight?"

"The technician said I had to eat less to avoid gaining weight."

"Then finish yesterday's dishes and have a simple meal today."

"Ah."
