After Lin Yan straightened his body, he shifted his lower body backward, propping himself against the rear hump of the car from above the seat.
"This is the first step in entering the corner. We use the wind's push force from the front to shift our center of gravity. While braking, we ensure our center of gravity is as far back as possible. This is to minimize the pressure on the front wheels during braking and reduce tire wear."
As he spoke, Lin Yan's body began to lean into the turn. He didn't have time to explain the subsequent steps, leaving them to observe.
His lower body shifted slightly from directly above the seat towards the apex of the corner. Lin Yan was hanging on the side leaning towards the apex, his knees extended. For this first corner, Lin Yan did not use the Rossi leg.
As the car entered the apex, Lin Yan's body angle reached its minimum, and his knees brushed the ground.
The two watched very carefully. Being able to witness Lin Shen's operation up close, a hint of excitement appeared on their faces.
Staring at Lin Yan's movements, Yan Xiaoqiang, standing beside him, keenly noticed that Lin Yan's timing for releasing the brakes was much more precise than theirs, and also later. When they braked into the corner, they were afraid of falling, so the latter part of the braking was very light and released very quickly. However, Lin Yan's braking was extremely heavy from the moment the car entered the corner, and even when releasing, he did so slowly.
This control over tire grip was terrifying.
As the car accelerated out of the corner, Lin Yan's lower body slowly returned to above the seat as the car straightened. However, it was only for a moment before the next corner arrived, and Lin Yan shifted out of the seat again.
At this point, Yan Xiaoqiang and Jiang Qi Yan seemed to understand what Lin Yan meant by rhythm. The factory car accelerated too quickly. If the corners were relatively tight, the car would barely straighten out before the next corner arrived. If they sat in the seat, it would indeed affect their operation.
"Watch my leg extension carefully and analyze its purpose."
For the second right-hand corner, after shifting his body back, Lin Yan extended his right leg.
A standard Rossi leg.
The two stared intently at the screen, and Lin Yan's voice followed.
"When your braking is heavy enough, extending your leg can stabilize your balance."
Besides increasing a little wind resistance and lowering the center of gravity, the Rossi leg also serves to apply heavy braking before entering a corner. While resisting the braking force, the rider can better balance the motorcycle. The motorcycle is extremely unstable during heavy braking, and the Rossi leg acts as a stabilizer, increasing the rider's limit for heavy braking.
As for how it increases the limit, that requires personal exploration, as everyone's riding style is different. Although the Rossi leg is often seen in top leagues, there are still riders who do not use this technique, which is related to the rider's personal habits.
In fact, the principle of the Rossi leg is very simple. When many people brake on bicycles, due to deceleration, both legs involuntarily come off the pedals to maintain balance. Some may place them directly on the ground, while others keep them suspended close to the ground. At this point, the legs play a balancing role. In GP races, due to braking into corners, the motorcycle has a certain inclination angle when braking. Therefore, GP riders only extend one leg, which is the one on the inside of the turn.
In the subsequent continuous corners, Lin Yan once again demonstrated what rhythm was. With both legs exerting force, he quickly flipped his body on the motorcycle.
The movements were fluid and swift.
When Yan Xiaoqiang and the others went through continuous corners, because of the slower speed, their flipping movements could be a bit slower. But Lin Yan had to be fast, otherwise, he would miss the best timing. With the exit speed of a GP22, one slow flip in the continuous corners could easily result in a loss of lap time.
Yan Xiaoqiang and the others shifted from the left to the seat and then to the right, while Lin Yan directly used both legs to exert force, eliminating the friction with the seat in between, and directly crossing from left to right.
The entire process relied entirely on his thighs clamping the fuel tank.
This movement, combined with the motorcycle's flip, looked extremely smooth. Now Jiang Qi Yan understood why GP riders' flips were so smooth; it turned out they skipped a step compared to her.
"I will only teach this once. You should train according to this movement and posture in the future."
After getting off the motorcycle, Lin Yan gave up his seat to the two of them. He didn't need to teach them too much in a short period; what he had shown them so far was enough.
He had them train on the simulator and then left the office building. He still had to attend to the对接 with the Song family's industries this morning.
Sitting on the sofa on the sixth floor, Lin Yan looked at the documents in his hand. Although he couldn't understand some of them, he knew they were very valuable. These were the contracts for forty percent of the Song family's industries that he had exchanged for, filling an entire table.
Thanks to Su Mojin's efforts, they had acquired industries suitable for the Lin family. They didn't aim for the most expensive, but for the most suitable. Song Yi wasn't easy to deal with, so Lin Yan hadn't intended to go for the most expensive from the start. They mostly focused on suitability, selecting some industries closer to the eastern district that the Lin family could easily accept.
Song Yi would find it easier to give up these industries. If he had demanded core assets, Song Yi might have found it truly difficult to agree.
Having lost these industries, the Song family was truly in decline. Lin Yan guessed that the old man Song Yi would probably take his son and flee abroad.
"Young master, latest news."
The door to the room was knocked on. Lin Yan said "come in," and Li Wei pushed the door open and whispered something in Lin Yan's ear.
"The Song family and the Wei family want to merge? Is this news accurate?"
"I don't know. It's the same person who gave us the news last time."
The same person? Lin Yan leaned back on the sofa and pondered. The information the person provided last time was indeed accurate. However, accuracy last time didn't guarantee accuracy this time. Why would someone help them for no reason?
However, the merger of the Wei family and the Song family could be a means of self-preservation. Lin Yan hadn't considered this possibility before, but this time it reminded him.
"Does my father know about this matter?"
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yan asked.
"Mr. Lin already knows about this matter."
Speaking of which, both the news this time and the previous news were obtained through Lin Guoxiong. Lin Yan nodded. Whether it was the other party's defection or their insider, there was no reason for them to contact him. If they were to contact anyone, it would be his cheap father.
Since that was the case, Lin Yan didn't think much about it. He would leave the matter of dealing with the Song family to his cheap father. He didn't understand finance very well, so he wouldn't worry about it unnecessarily.
The Song family's remaining industries were less than thirty to forty percent. Even if they merged with the Wei family, there was still a gap compared to the Lin family. The forty percent of industries Lin Yan held had played a significant role.
Without further thought, he told Li Wei to leave, and Lin Yan went into the private room on the sixth floor.
Unusually, Su Mojin was not working today but was lying on the bed scrolling through short videos.
"Husband, husband, come quickly."
Hearing footsteps, Su Mojin turned around and saw Lin Yan. She reached out her small hand and beckoned him over.
Lin Yan walked over nonchalantly.
