Emily didn't respond to this answer.

In fact, she herself has now transformed from a youth training trainee to a professional driver, so how could she not understand such a simple truth? She was just being stubborn.

Challenging the four major teams with one's own strength, after all, is too difficult!

"Bei, T12 Anting Bend, overtake Alonso."

Just when everyone thought it impossible, Chen Xiangbei's earpiece rang with Briatore's voice.

After several races, Hua Bu had never issued technical instructions to Chen Xiangbei, and he was not even willing to come to the outdoor command post for air conditioning.

It was only because the late spring and early summer climate in East Sea was pleasant that Hua Bu sat outdoors to watch the race.

This time, he directly specified a corner for Chen Xiangbei to overtake Alonso.

"What?"

Chen Xiangbei instinctively replied. It wasn't that he didn't hear clearly, but he thought the Italian rascal was joking.

With no technique or plan, just saying to overtake at T12 Anting Bend, isn't that a joke?

If overtaking could be achieved through team orders, what would be the point of a race?

"T12 Anting Bend is a high-speed arc turn, and the huge lateral centrifugal force requires high tire grip."

"Alonso has experienced consecutive attacks from the two Red Bull drivers, and the Ferrari's tire consumption is greater than HRT's, so the tire condition is far worse than yours."

While listening to Hua Bu's speech, Chen Xiangbei thought it made sense.

But Hua Bu then turned and said: "Actually, all those objective conditions cannot play a decisive role in overtaking, Alonso's technical gap can make up for the tire gap."

"The real decisive factor is your persona!"

"Get to the point."

Chen Xiangbei looked at the rearview mirror while urging.

This old rascal Hua Bu just loved to nag and show off, but Weber had already swapped positions with Vettel and was about to launch an attack on him.

"The point is you have the image of a reckless and aggressive rookie, Alonso is not as reckless as you to risk his life."

Alonso belongs to a thoroughly technical school driver, and his driving skills are comprehensively strong without any weak points.

But he has a trait, which is rational and steady.

Whether it's Senna, Schumacher, Hamilton, or Verstappen, their careers have left countless exciting and impulsive stories.

Only Alonso rarely intentionally creates bumper car stories.

This doesn't mean Alonso is cowardly, but most opponents aren't worth him doing so.

This certainly includes the rookie Chen Xiangbei!

If Chen Xiangbei competes on technique, it's hard to overtake Alonso under Vettel's pursuit, so he can only rely on "human nature style."

Those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who do.

Others are two-time champions waiting to win their third world championship; how would they play "one for one" with a mere track rookie?

As an agent, Briatore understands Alonso too well, and also understands human nature very well.

In the large arc layout of T12 Anting Bend, no advanced technique is needed, just weld down the throttle, rely on tire grip, and then force Alonso!

"I understand."

Chen Xiangbei immediately grasped it; this was indeed the only way to defeat Alonso in the short term.

With an incredibly firm belief, Chen Xiangbei tossed his hesitation aside, and forcefully pressed the accelerator pedal to the floor, gripping the back of Alonso's car tightly on the long straight before the turn.

To Alonso, the Chinese Kid's move was not surprising, as late braking into a turn was Driver Bei's usual tactic.

Unfortunately, this tactic didn't work on him!

Alonso had already seized the best line to enter the turn, slightly inclined toward the center, effectively blocking all of Chen Xiangbei's overtaking routes, showcasing the profound experience of a veteran.

But once both cars entered the turn, the grip reduction caused by tire wear made it impossible for Alonso to maintain the central line, forcing him to take the conventional trailing brake route.

At this moment, Chen Xiangbei slammed the accelerator into the line, forcefully catching up with Alonso, bringing the two cars side by side!

"Chen Xiangbei is now running neck and neck with Alonso, both drivers going through the turn at a very high speed, showing no signs of slowing down at all."

"Especially Chen Xiangbei on the inside line; the lateral G-force at this speed will push the car outward, making it impossible to follow the trailing braking trajectory, akin to understeering when entering a turn at high speed."

"If this trend continues, Chen Xiangbei may run off the track!"

"It seems the young man couldn't hold it in the end; he's panicking under pressure!"

Li Bing directly concluded. He might not speculate easily on other tracks, but as a member of China's racing industry, he was very familiar with East Sea International Circuit.

Especially this Anting Bend, which was named after the region, had been run countless times by domestic touring car racers.

From his perspective, it was evident that Weber and Vettel swapping positions created an imminent "back and forth pincer" scene, prompting Chen Xiangbei to make an adventurous decision.

The problem was that this decision was akin to "suicide," a typical oppressive mistake made by young drivers!

Indeed, according to normal predictions, choosing to overtake at Anting Bend was a dead-end move by Chen Xiangbei.

Chen Xiangbei himself knew this, so he didn't intend to overtake.

Instead, he just maintained the extreme speed, following Alonso side by side through the turn!

Under the influence of G-force, both cars continuously moved toward the outside of the track, and Chen Xiangbei's sliding speed was faster than Alonso's. From a god's-eye view, Chen Xiangbei appeared to be continuously "pushing" Alonso outward.

To avoid collision, Alonso could only keep dodging, moving from the perfect center position for trailing braking to the outer edge little by little.

Conversely, Chen Xiangbei moved from the inside line little by little to the center line!

By the time the two cars reached the exit of the turn, Alonso, realizing the situation was not right, found it impossible to take any countermeasures.

With a better exit line and faster acceleration, Chen Xiangbei, without suspense, was the first to speed out of the turn!

Driving skill can't beat human nature; Alonso was still a bit too naive playing tricks with Briatore.
