No driver can achieve perfect speed in every corner. Every driver has his own favorite corners and his own special understanding of a certain corner.

For example, Martin himself is good at Turn 6, where he can maintain a fast cornering speed because his braking force curve at Turn 6 is different from that of other drivers.

During this lap, he studied Qin Chuan's route. If he could understand it, his chances of overtaking would be very great.

"In Turn 6 on the ninth lap, Martin tried to pull away, but then retreated. Doesn't he plan to attack yet? There are only six laps left in the race!"

Coming out of Turn 5, the cars passed along the small straight line. Martin's car made a fake tapping move in the braking area of ​​Turn 6. Xiao Zhang in the commentary booth keenly noticed this move.

Martin pulled his head back, but it was just a fake move and he quickly retracted it. This fake move seemed to be measuring the distance and had no intention of overtaking.

After the car pulled away, it moved back to the outside line and returned behind Qin Chuan.

He pulled away, but did not brake too late, and his car was not side by side with Qin Chuan's car. This was obviously an operation to measure the distance.

This is also normal in GP. When braking, you move slightly closer to the inside and observe the distance between your braking point and the opponent's braking point from the side, so as to estimate how much braking force he will use if he overtakes.

It is much easier to calculate the braking point from the side than from directly behind.

Under the helmet, cold sweat broke out on Martin's forehead. After the comparison, he felt a little pressure. Even though Turn 6 was a heavy braking area where he was good at, his chances of overtaking Qin Chuan were not great.

The opponent's braking point here is very late. Of course, the more important reason is that Turn 6 itself is not a particularly heavy braking corner.

It is a heavy braking corner, but the straight area is too short and the braking area is not long enough.

You can't put all your bets on one position.

Martin's thoughts raced, his eyes sparkling beneath his helmet.

Coming out of Turn 6, the two cars turned over quickly, and then turned into Turn 7 one after the other. Martin continued to observe Qin Chuan's car.

"We entered Turn 24, a small straight line. Martin sucked Qin Chuan's tail flow. GP seemed to be getting closer. But Turn was coming! The straight line was too short. Martin had just shown signs of closing the gap when he passed the straight line!"

Passing one bend after another, at the straight line of Turn 24, Martin controlled the GP to follow Qin Chuan closely. Taking advantage of the wake and the car's advantage, he almost climbed up this straight line of less than meters.

After passing Turn 8, there was another heavy braking corner, Turn 9. Both of them braked at the same time, and the rear wheels left the ground. While braking, Martin built a model in his mind, analyzed the scenario of overtaking, and observed Qin Chuan's braking point and route with his eyes.

"We brake hard at Turn 9. Martin is about to show up again. Qin Chuan doesn't seem to be sure of getting rid of him now! He has no way to deal with Martin's entanglement!"

"The beast behind us is starting to fight back against Peko!"

After passing Turn 8, the two drivers braked hard again to pass Turn 9. As soon as they came out of Turn 9, Beast and Peko behind them overtook and changed positions again.

Now the beast has gone from being unable to resist to being able to fight back and forth with Peko. The two are evenly matched, and the beast even has a feeling that he has the upper hand.

Currently the gap between the two and Martin has reached 0.75. With this gap the Beast cannot absorb any tailstream at all, and it can almost be said that it is no different from the lead. The advantage of the brake disc is maximized, and his strength is gradually recovering.

The brake discs produced performance that exceeded that of Peko's car.

It seems very difficult for Peko to defend himself in a short period of time.

Inside the Ducati P-room, the person in charge looked nervous and flushed, his adrenaline seemed to be surging just like the driver’s.

He prefers Peco because Peco is the rider who will stay in the team next year. The Beast has officially announced that he will not stay in the Ducati factory team next year, so he naturally prefers his own rider.

But even if he wanted to give orders at the moment, he couldn't. Now is not the critical moment for the world championship. No one would listen if he gave orders, and giving orders would lose the reputation of the team.

Besides, even if it is a critical moment, the beast will be gone next year. Will people recognize it?

I will quit next year. No one will recognize you as a leader.

"At the eleventh turn, the two of them passed in a very rhythmic manner. Martin was still following, and Qin Chuan was struggling. I could see that he was trying to find an opportunity to get rid of Martin, but there was no particularly good way at the moment."

Wei Ran's voice came word by word. Qin Chuan's lap time was very fast, and the car body showed obvious signs of shaking, but Martin behind him was also not weak. With the blessing of wake and the powerful gp24, he could keep up with Qin Chuan. Both cars entered a shaking state.

"If the difference between these two cars remains at last year's level, Martin probably won't be able to catch up with Qin Chuan now."

Stoner said leisurely.

Stoner glanced at him, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and said nothing.

Stoner said this to the people of KTM, but it is extremely difficult for KTM to catch up with the development of Ducati GP24. They have tried their best.

At the eleventh turn, the cars passed one after another. Martin's car was still following behind Qin Chuan. Qin Chuan in front always tried to pull away, but he failed in the end. He was caught up by Martin as soon as he had a sign.

"There are a series of somersaults at turn 12, and the two of them are maintaining a pretty good rhythm! Is it possible that Martin will attack Qin Chuan at the next turn 16?"

In the commentary booth, Xiao Zhang couldn't help but guess as he watched the two people stretch out their right legs at the same time and do eleven bends.

According to speculation, the probability of taking action at Turn 16 is still quite high, but where exactly the action will be taken depends on Martin's own decision.

On the field, the cars rumbled as they passed through several consecutive somersaults. The RC16 kept flipping back and forth along the shoulder of the track. The timing of the two people's flips was exactly the same. As long as one of them made a mistake in operation, they would probably both roll off the track.

Martin soon discovered that Qin Chuan's riding style on this track was average. There were no corners that he was particularly good at, but there were no slow corners either. Every corner was at a relatively fast level, and he had no obvious shortcomings.

No wonder it is known as the second robot and an all-round master.

Coming out of Turn 15 and looking at Turn 16 in front of him, Martin couldn't help but have the urge to take action.

As the car roared towards Turn 16, Martin forced himself to suppress the thought.

He wanted to observe Qin Chuan's sixteen turns. He only had a rough look at the last lap. If he took action here, Qin Chuan would counterattack him in the next lap and he would easily be at a disadvantage.

With a few buzzing sounds, the two engines shifted downshifts and the car braked hard on the outside line to enter Turn 16.

Martin's eyes were fixed on Qin Chuan in front of him, not missing any details.

"Martin didn't make a move here. It looks like the fight will drag on until the tenth lap."
