Because of this small disagreement, the atmosphere on the rostrum was somewhat subtle.
Very quickly, someone changed the topic, and only then did it become lively again.
Cheng Xiyue turned his head to take a look and clicked his tongue lightly.
“This desire for survival is really strong… Lu Er, you said that you didn’t want to sit at the podium area, yet you insisted on coming to the VIP area. Then, you just had to sit in front of them. You did it on purpose, right?”
In this position, it was impossible for Ivan and the others to pretend not to see him.
The corners of Lu Huaiyu’s lips twitched slightly.
“I can see the view more clearly from here.”
Cheng Xiyue did not believe half a word of his reason, but–
“Indeed, looking at Little Sister Ah Li from here, the view is the best.”
He leaned back.
“Tsk, I rushed over last night, and I haven’t even adjusted to my jet lag properly before running over here to support Little Sister Ah Li in the competition. I’ve really put in so much of my heart for Little Sister Ah Li!”
Lu Huaiyu gave him a sideways glance in an indifferent manner.
Cheng Xiyue inexplicably felt a little cold and consciously tried to make up for it.
“Cough, I mean, with this kind of support from me, Little Sister Ah Li should at least get into the top three!”
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.
Top three?
This was not what she wanted.
Cheng Xiyue had been friends with him for many years. Looking at his expression at this time, he already roughly understood his thoughts.
He was momentarily stunned.
“… No way, this meaning of yours, could it be that you’re really optimistic about Little Sister Ah Li winning the championship?”
Lu Huaiyu seemed to laugh.
This was his way of showing his tacit agreement.
Cheng Xiyue returned to his senses and asked somewhat disbelievingly, “Really? Then… is it because of this that you specially raised the prize money for the Grand Champion, right?”
He glanced at the field again and lowered his voice.
“If Sister Ah Li doesn’t win, then you–”
Lu Huaiyu’s thin lips raised slightly.
“She won’t lose.”
…
On the other side, in the LY resting area, Yang Tao, Gu Siyang, and the others were staring straight ahead, not daring to relax in the slightest.
Only Wen Xiao was leisurely sitting on the chair, looking as if he did not care much.
Gu Siyang turned his head to take a look. He was shocked and envious, and could not help but mutter, “… Isn’t his mentality too stable? My heart is about to jump out of my chest!”
Even though he was just standing outside the field, listening to the noise around him and looking at the number of cars lined up neatly at the starting point, he was also very nervous.
Not to mention the drivers who were preparing to race on the field.
In fact, Yang Tao was also very nervous, but he was still calmer than Gu Siyang.
“Coach Wen is right. Whatever is needed to be said has already been said and what they should practice has been practiced. Now, they just need to wait for the competition to start and go all out with their efforts. No matter what the result is, it’s already very good for LY to be able to come to this race track.”
After all, this was LY’s first time representing China in an international competition of this level. This was a result that they had never achieved before.
Gu Siyang rubbed his face hard.
“I understand the logic, but we’re already here. Who doesn’t want to go further? Especially… that’s my sister!”
At this moment, the competition had yet to officially start, yet his back was already drenched in sweat.
Yang Tao knew that he could not persuade him otherwise, so he simply did not say anything more. He only focused on looking at the field and whispered, “… I hope that everything goes safely and smoothly!”
…
One after another, all the drivers got into their cars and took their positions.
Shen Li adjusted her position and turned her head to look at LY’s resting area.
On the other side, Yang Tao, Gu Siyang, as well as LY’s several managers and reserve team members were all nervously and expectantly staring in their direction.
In comparison, Wen Xiao, who was sitting lazily at the side, seemed particularly relaxed. It was as if this was not the Victoria Velodrome, but LY’s training base.
He took out a cigarette case from his pocket and pulled out a cigarette.
The security in the racetrack was extremely strict, so he had not brought a lighter in.
However, at this time, he still held the cigarette in his mouth and looked over. His eyes narrowed slightly, and the emotions in his eyes could not be seen clearly.
Shen Li’s eyebrows moved slightly.
How could he not be nervous? Only when he did not care would he be completely relaxed.
He was not.
This was, after all, his former battlefield.
There had been glory, but there had also been regrets.
He had come here again after such a long time for her and LY’s sake.
She turned her gaze slightly and saw a familiar figure in the stands above the rest area.
Shen Zhijin.
He had arrived last night. Considering that she was going to compete today, he had only had dinner with her and had not disturbed her too much, allowing her to concentrate on preparing for the competition.
The surrounding people were all excited and cheering enthusiastically. He was the only one sitting there, distant and cold.
However, she understood that he had come for her.
Shen Li withdrew her gaze and looked forward.
The numbers on the electronic screen had already entered the countdown.
She raised her right arm high and gave a thumbs up!
Boom–!
A huge engine roar sounded!
Then, the sound of an order was heard!
A number of racing cars sped out!
The huge racing field was instantly filled with excitement!
…
There were a total of 12 teams participating in the race. Each team had five members. In other words, there were drivers that would be eliminated from these 60 top drivers.
And the team championship would then be calculated based on the total ranking of points.
Among the 60 drivers, only the top 20 drivers could get points.
The first to get 100 points, the second to the 20th, would get points based on five points.
After the 20th place, they would all get zero points.
The total points of the five drivers of the team would be the final result of the team. The team with the highest points would be the overall team champion.
If there were two teams with the same points, the team with the higher ranking driver would win by comparing the person in first place of each team.
Therefore, in order to win the championship, the drivers had to try their best to enter the top 20.
At the same time, the individual ranking of the drivers also had a great impact on the final result of the team.
This required the drivers of the entire team to be of a good standard, and it also required them to have top drivers who could fight alone.
It was not easy to win this championship.
On the asphalt track, one after another, the race cars roared as they flew past. The tires rubbed against the ground, bringing about high heat. The air was filled with hot air.
Countless cameras were focused on the track, and drones hovered in the air.
One minute into the official live broadcast, millions of viewers had already poured in!
…
Because it was a large-scale international race, the people who were watching this race were from all over the world.
[ It’s here, it’s here! It’s starting! ]
[ OMG! Mervyn is indeed Mervyn! In such a short period of time, he has already pulled away from the person in second place! ]
[ Crowe’s starting position isn’t the best, but he has already rushed to fourth place! As expected, AMG still has to rely on him! ]
Of course, there were also many LY fans who appeared.
[ Where’s Shen Li? Where’s LY? ]
[ LY seems to be the last one to go, right? This is too disadvantageous… ]
[ Why hasn’t the camera reached my sister yet? What’s wrong with the director? ]
In the dazzling bullet screen, a dazzling comment quickly appeared.
[ The camera only belongs to the strong. Don’t LY fans understand such simple logic? ]
