The roar of the engine echoed across the sky as the TF110 race car surged towards the T1 corner like a "black lightning."
At 50 meters into the turn, he eased off the throttle and hit the brakes at the white line of the pit exit. As the speed dropped to the necessary range, Chen Xiangbei steadily steered into the T1 spiral complex corner.
If someone were to compare with the in-car first-person video, they would find that Chen Xiangbei's braking point and racing line were almost perfectly overlapped with his previous practice runs, precise like clockwork gears!
Chen Xiangbei's current skill might not match Verstappen's future self, maintaining each lap's error to mere tenths of a second.
But at least in those key corners, he can be absolutely precise!
What many people don't know is that the T1 corner at East Sea International Circuit shares its name with the T1 corner at Spa Circuit, both called "Red River Bend."
Only one is a high-speed corner, challenging the drivers' courage.
