To be precise, Lin Yan saw the two people in front from the very beginning.
The two were not far in front of Lin Yan; it would have been difficult for him not to see them. They were close enough that Lin Yan estimated he would catch up to them before long.
Lin Yan's position wasn't ideal, with many cars both in front and behind him, but he had no choice. Time was running out, so Lin Yan didn't hesitate in the pit stop.
Since there were slower cars ahead, he would overtake them!
They were slower than him, and letting them block him would only impede his speed. Lin Yan decisively chose to overtake. While overtaking would cost some time, it was better than being stuck behind them the entire way.
As the second sector just began, Lin Yan caught up to the KT in front.
Someone directed their anger towards Rens.
"It shouldn't be that bad; this guy has already fallen and is unconscious."
Rens had taken a nasty fall. His helmet had directly impacted Lin Yan's high-speed spinning rear wheel. He now lay on the track, unable to get up, his face covered in blood.
