"Xiangbei's performance truly challenges my perception of Chinese drivers."
The commentators discussed the team's internal conflict with the audience, while Chen Xiangbei focused all his attention on Costa, who was ahead.
Compared to the low-profile Dixon and Vergne who is not adept at single laps and dueling, Costa's lap speed rivals Magnussen's, making him one of the strongest drivers in this Renault European Cup.
In the previous race, Costa planned to aggressively overtake Chen Xiangbei at a corner but was outsmarted by the Chinese Kid, leading to a duel between him and Magnussen, which ended with Vergne's tire preservation tactics stealing the podium spot from them.
This time, Costa was determined; he wouldn't lose twice to the same person!
As the two cars raced one after the other, Costa executed a perfect defensive strategy, guarding the overtaking line tightly and not giving Chen Xiangbei any chance.
