"To get into Q3, we need to be even faster!"
Hearing Odetto's words, the expression on the faces of the team's strategy group in the pit box showed some surprise.
Indeed, there were some corners where Chen Xiangbei didn't pull away from Trulli, but overall, Chen Xiangbei was already completely ahead of Trulli in speed on most corners. Otherwise, relying solely on the full-power engine to increase straight-line speed could not have achieved the second-fastest time overall.
The qualifying session is about to begin this afternoon. Isn't Odetto worried that exerting pressure at this point might lead to Chen Xiangbei making a track error?
In fact, if Chen Xiangbei hadn't produced this second-place lap, Odetto wouldn't have said this.
The reason is simple: not being able to produce speed indicates not being able to control the car, making pressure meaningless.
Only drivers with potential can convert pressure into action.
