F1: Absolute Car Feel

Rosberg and Wu Shi were too close together, so following behind them meant they couldn't fully benefit from the tailflow.

This resulted in the two players having similar speeds on the straight after Turn 7.

In the next U-turn, Wu Shi still maintained his inside advantage and could penetrate the defense more quickly.

After entering the corner, Wu Shi continued to squeeze Rosberg's track space.

Rosberg didn't care about that; there were plenty of lines to choose from in the U-turn.

The two men squeezed against each other as they tried to straighten their course in the bend.

The audience in stand 8 immediately erupted in deafening shouts.

This isn't about cheering for Rosberg or Wu Shi, but about being happy to have witnessed a great fight.

After exiting Turn 8, there is a short straight section.

This straight isn't really for full acceleration; it's more for drivers to get into position for Turn 9.

But that was when there was only one car, with Wu Shi and Rosberg one in front of the other.

The two blocked each other's positions.

Wu Shi was trying his best to push Rosberg to the left, while Rosberg was trying to push Wu Shi to the right.

The two players were locked in a fierce battle, resulting in neither of them being able to get a good entry line into the corner.

Soon Bay 9 was within reach, and Rosberg, positioned on the inside, theoretically had the authority to brake later.

However, the space left by Wu Shi was cramped. If he dared to brake too late, he would inevitably torpedo Wu Shi as he entered the turn normally.

He didn't want to withdraw from the competition, as that would benefit neither of them.

So at this point, he had no choice but to give in.

The struggle that had been ongoing since Turn 7 has come to a temporary end.

As Wu Shi entered the straight after Turn 9, he accelerated rapidly, and his gear shifts were always more precise.

Susu!

The next stretch of highway was entirely under Wu Shi's control.

Rosberger, who theoretically possessed better aerodynamic performance, could have used some tricks here.

However, the route that Wu Shi maintained was very tricky, which made him hesitant to try it easily.

Wu Shi had observed all the attacks and defenses since entering the hunting grounds and knew that there was no room for attack here.

Wu Shi navigated the two wide S-curves, 12 and 13, with remarkable ease.

At this moment, Rosberg forgot about many things he needed to consider and focused only on the rear of the car in front of him.

After turning 13, the short straight immediately leads to right turn 14.

Rosberg left the car body on the right side, clearly telling Wu Shi.

If you don't stop me, I'm coming!

Wu Shi could only stay in the middle line and couldn't enter the corners better.

Rosberg, on the other hand, can adjust his position from behind to achieve better exit speed from corners.

Rosberg knew perfectly well where the last chance to overtake lay.

On the long stretch of highway after Turn 15, the Blanchimont combination corner will have speeds of around 310-330 kph.

There, as long as you make good use of the wake, you can overtake!

hoohoo!

Both cars pushed their speeds to the limit.

Rosberg had gained enough speed by the wake current at the fake turn 16.

Before turn 17, he changed his line to the left, wanting to pull off an inside maneuver, and the shorter driving distance would be enough to amplify his advantage.

Clearly, the two new yellow tires allowed Rosberg to operate more aggressively.

Wu Shi defended tenaciously, but 315kph just couldn't stop the 334kph inside.

Rosberg followed.

On the left side of the vehicle, you can already feel the oppressive airflow.

However, after losing the wake, Rosberg's speed was affected by increased drag and could not be maintained.

The two cars were side by side just before they reached Turn 18!
"Wow! Are Rosberg going to overtake and seal the victory on the last two corners?!"

Everyone held their breath and concentrated.

Heh!

Both vehicles emitted white smoke simultaneously. It was right turn 18, and Wu Shi was on the inside line. However, Wu Shi couldn't simply consider this turn.

Because Turn 19, which follows Turn 18, is a left-hand turn, Rosberg will regain the advantage!

At this point, Hamilton was close to crossing the finish line, but the camera didn't even focus on the Mercedes No. 44 under the checkered flag.

Turn into Turn 18.

Wu Shi could have driven towards the apex of the bend, but he didn't.

He forced Rosberg to create space on the track, leaving him with zero space on his right, thus preventing him from pulling right and turning left. As a result, Rosberg would naturally be slower at Turn 19.

But didn't Rosberg know that?
Of course he knows!
So when the car was pointing towards Turn 19, it accelerated without hesitation, trying to fish into Turn 19 and block Wu Shi's better entry line.

The final showdown between the two is about to be revealed!
Rosberg drove past the apex of Turn 19, and Wu Shi's entry line was blocked.

Wu Shi, however, still steered to the left, his left front wing almost sweeping Rosberg's right rear wheel!

Swish!
Rosberg's car drove past and began to turn left.

Wu Shi's left lane was cleared, and he began to turn left as well.

In order to complete the turn more quickly, Wu Shi slammed onto the shoulder.

When the car body bounces, it loses a lot of steering force.

Rosberg, due to his tricky cornering angle and excessive speed, also went wide and hit the right-side curb.

Both of them found it incredibly difficult to turn left.

A cross line that is extremely unaesthetic.

After Wu Shi's vehicle landed, he did not wait for the steering wheel to be completed before he began to accelerate.

Roar!
Even he had no room for maneuver at this point.

With the wide rear wheels on one side of the asphalt road and the other side of the curb, the torque output is quite different.

He had adjusted the differential parameters before the car bounced, slightly balancing the differences.

Roar!
Rosberg completed the turn and began to accelerate.

Both of them rushed towards the grid lines in front of them.

Wu Shi, who was slightly ahead after turning from the inside line, did not have the acceleration advantage after exiting the corner.

Rosberg is getting close!
Wu Shi, on the other hand, forgot to breathe, and while controlling the gear shift, he wished he could shrink into the cockpit.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With a roar of engines, the two F1 cars accelerated at full speed and crossed the final checkered line.

As the checkered flags waved, the spectators in the main stand stood up!
Who will win and who will lose?!
Nobody can see it clearly!

However, the final result was then updated on the big screen.

P2: Wu Shi

P3: Rosberg.

The finish line was 0.012 seconds behind.

"YES! YES!"

"You did it! You did it! Wu Shi! Well done!"

Jonathan's loud cheers followed immediately.

"Hu, hu, hu!"

Wu Shi's hands were also trembling slightly, and he was breathing heavily.

"YESSSSS! I did it!"

Once his breathing became slightly easier, he shouted.

Inside the Williams P cabin, the crew members jumped up and hugged each other with joy.

This runner-up title was even more exciting than some of the already decided champions.

Claire covered her mouth with both hands, still staring at the result in disbelief.

Sir Williams sat in his wheelchair with a smile on his face.

MassaTR: "Congratulations Wu Shi! He did it again!"

Mercedes TR: "Nico, P3, 0.012 seconds."

Rosberg (TR): "Yeah, yeah, I know, I know myself, I tried my best."
