The driver of car number thirty-eight behind them was doing the same thing. Taking advantage of the two slowing down, three or four cars behind them also caught up, completing their overtake.
Finally, Jiang Qi Yan stabilized the race car, hit the accelerator, and the car began to speed up.
"Senior Matt, is Jiang Qi Yan's race car okay?"
In the pit, Zhou Xian Yong looked nervously at Matt, who was in charge of their race car.
The rear of Jiang Qi Yan's race car had been dented, but fortunately, the carbon fiber was quite flexible and did not disintegrate. However, many parts inside the car were exposed through the gaps.
Matt stroked his beard and looked intently at the screen, not answering Zhou Xian Yong's question.
Every component on a race car was extremely important, even the rear. The rear of the race car integrated a large number of electronic control systems, as well as the car's brain, the ECU. If the ECU had a problem, it would be a big issue.
Matt stared at the screen for a long time. Only when Jiang Qi Yan's car had fully started and passed the next corner did he slowly shift his gaze away.
"There shouldn't be any problem, but that kid's race car is probably ruined."
Matt chuckled. This little girl was quite spirited, and ruthless!
He, being a timid person, admired such bold and fierce women.
The handlebars were bent, and the driver of car number thirty-eight was clearly unable to continue the race. He could only dejectedly ride his race car back to his pit. Seeing his frustrated look of pounding his chest and stamping his feet, bursts of laughter erupted from the stands.
Unexpectedly, car number thirty-eight was eliminated, but the Marmot pit crew breathed a sigh of relief.
"When he gets back, kick him out of the team immediately."
The person in charge didn't say much, dropped a sentence, and turned to walk into the office. He still had to deal with how to apologize to Lin Shen. Lin Shen's identity was fine, but he was more afraid of the Lin Corporation behind Lin Shen, which was a far more powerful entity than Marmot's headquarters.
It was not until Jiang Qi Yan's race car started again that Lin Yan finally shifted his gaze. It seemed that the ECU at the rear of the car was likely fine.
The ECU was the central brain of the car's electronic control system, responsible for many things. In any competition, if the ECU was damaged, the driver would effectively lose their qualification.
Lin Yan remembered a race in his previous life where a driver's ECU was damaged due to a car accident, issuing incorrect commands and nearly causing a secondary crash.
When Jiang Qi Yan's speed picked up again, her ranking had dropped to fifth. She maintained the balance of the car and quickly navigated the turns. At this point, she was no longer chasing any specific rank, prioritizing stability. Watching car number thirty-eight wobble out of the runoff area, Jiang Qi Yan snorted under her helmet, "You dare bully me, I'll fight you to the death!"
Behind Jiang Qi Yan were also drivers from Lin Yan's team. He was originally in seventh place, and because Jiang Qi Yan had taken out car number thirty-eight, this guy also moved up a spot by luck.
Having someone from his own team behind him meant he wouldn't be overtaken. He escorted Jiang Qi Yan all the way to the finish line.
Cars fifth and sixth crossed the finish line, both securing qualification for tomorrow's main race.
As soon as the driver of car number thirty-eight got off the track and returned to his pit, the first thing he did was to protest to his team, reporting Jiang Qi Yan for dangerous driving. However, before he could even reach the team, the people within the team, with whom he usually had a good relationship, blocked him at the door.
"Baka, Kame-ta-kun, what are you doing! Let me in, I need to report that woman."
The driver of car number thirty-eight was already seething with anger, and being blocked by his own team members only made him vent his frustration onto them.
Facing the driver of car number thirty-eight's words, the people at the door did not let him in. The leader spoke.
"Inukai-kun, the boss asked me to inform you that you've been fired!"
"Fired? On what grounds am I fired!"
Upon hearing that he was fired, Inukai became even more furious, and the anger surged up his nostrils.
"You'll have to ask the boss about that."
The man called Kame-ta glanced at him, gave a warning, and turned back into the pit. This kid's personality was always problematic, and they had been unhappy with him for a long time.
Inukai wanted to cause more trouble, but after considering the influence of Marmot in their industry, he let go. There's a saying in China, if one place doesn't keep you, another will. With his skills, he had other options besides Marmot.
Could the other party have a very powerful background?
His car was pushed away, and after changing into the clothes that were thrown out, Inukai sat outside the track, lost in thought.
After calming down, he realized that apart from this, he couldn't think of any other reason for being fired.
After the first round ended, the second round of the race quickly began. This time, Lin Yan's team selected a driver, Jiang Qi Mo.
Lin Yan didn't have many thoughts about Jiang Qi Mo. He was a more conservative driver. After the qualifying session, Jiang Qi Mo secured fifth starting position.
Seeing this, Lin Yan already knew the outcome of the race. With Jiang Qi Mo's injured hand, it was unlikely he would qualify for the main race.
However, during the race, Jiang Qi Mo managed to impress Lin Yan. This kid actually took out a driver from the Marmot team. It was interesting.
Unfortunately, Jiang Qi Mo committed a foul!
Jiang Qi Mo started in fifth place. Two drivers from the Marmot team were ranked first and second. With three cars in a row, Jiang Qi Mo was directly behind the second-place driver. At the start and the first corner, this kid didn't brake at all and crashed directly into the rear of the second-place Marmot driver's car, sending him flying.
It was true that the race cars had a displacement of 250cc, but the main straight before the start line was very long. Jiang Qi Mo's tail speed reached nearly 200.
The first-place driver was not spared either. He was hit on the rear wheel by the falling car of the second-place driver. Both teammates were out of the race.
"Go tell Zhou Xian Yong that as long as the race committee doesn't disqualify Jiang Qi Mo, they should accept any fines or compensation."
Lin Yan said to Li Wei. He didn't know what to say about this kid. He would do anything to avenge his sister.
"Brother, are you okay? Are you an idiot!"
In the pit, Jiang Qi Yan unleashed a torrent of scolding at Jiang Qi Mo. Jiang Qi Mo sat on the chair, not daring to retort. This kid was smart enough to protect his injured arm the moment he crashed. Moreover, since he crashed intentionally, the risk factor was not high, and he returned unharmed.
Lin Yan's team had all their configurations maxed out. The leather suits and airbags were equipped to MotoGP standards, meaning they were fully armored.
After scolding for a while, Jiang Qi Yan's anger subsided. She walked over to her brother to check if he was injured.
Seeing the brother and sister, Zhou Xian Yong shook his head. Ignoring them, he walked over to Yan Xiao Qiang and told him to prepare for the next race.
