You know, even though Chen Xiangbei overtook him in the opening race and Australia witnessed Chen Xiangbei's podium finish in the rain, Rosberg, in his subconscious, still didn't think this Chinese rookie was stronger than him in terms of hard power.

The other party's good results were more like a mismatched duel of fictional legendary soldiers.

On a different track, perhaps it would be him on the podium!

But this time, even though Rosberg came prepared, Chen Xiangbei still easily caught up to him.

The facts laid bare in front of him, Rosberg felt his arrogance and conceit shatter instantly.

"Wow, Chen Xiangbei is so fast, he's already caught up to Rosberg!"

"It didn't seem like an accident when he overtook just now. Was this German guy intentionally provoking, and Chen Xiangbei is planning to retaliate in kind?"

"Before, it was just media hype about Chen Xiangbei's strength; today, we finally witnessed it. He really is strong!"

"Go Chen Xiangbei, make Rosberg understand who truly dominates this track!"

The on-site spectators also realized Chen Xiangbei's intent and instantly erupted into a frenzy.

In a way, by choosing to fight back strongly, Chen Xiangbei achieved exactly this effect.

He used his actions to make the audience understand that Chinese drivers are not pushovers on the track, nor are they ones to be easily provoked or bullied.

Anyone who dares to provoke will only receive a more ferocious counterattack!

"Rosberg, move to the defensive line, Xiangbei is about to attack."

A reminder came through the headset from the Mercedes engineer. No matter how much they don't want their driver to get into a confrontation, at this point, they have no choice but to engage.

This already relates to the driver's desire to win and self-confidence.

Listening to the team's engineer's reminder, Rosberg didn't respond, as he focused all his attention on the 13th car behind him.

The two cars raced one after another, and Rosberg, in his all-out defense, indeed displayed his prowess and talent without exposing any weaknesses, leaving Chen Xiangbei without openings to overtake.

But if this stalemate continues, it's Chen Xiangbei who will suffer.

The reason is simple: his tire lifespan is shorter than Rosberg's, and overtaking demands more grip than defending.

If he can't pass in the next lap, Chen Xiangbei's tire grip will significantly degrade, and any reckless overtaking attempts might result in going off-track or a collision with both cars.

On another track, Chen Xiangbei wouldn't fear car damage and could ignore the results.

At the East Sea International Circuit, Chen Xiangbei seeks a complete victory!

Facing this situation, everyone in the HRT Team's pit was on edge. They were not only worried about Chen Xiangbei's ability to overtake but also that he might take excessive risks.

Even the team personnel across the pit lane focused their eyes on the monitoring screens, their faces filled with a sense of excitement as the Chinese Kid brought so many uncertainties to the new season.

Yet, Chen Xiangbei remained calm, knowing in his heart the perfect overtaking point.

After the T13 corner, next was the East Sea International Circuit's main straight, stretching 1.2 kilometers, with a top speed exceeding 350km/h.

Chen Xiangbei didn't know the Mercedes car's performance limits — that's confidential team data.

But he knew how fast the TF110 could go!

Especially when combined with low downforce and a stalled rear wing, Chen Xiangbei was confident he could overtake the Mercedes on the long straight.

What's a "Silver Arrow"? Just that!

He stomped on the pedal with full throttle, and the Toyota engine roared deafeningly. Using the slipstream's slingshot effect, Chen Xiangbei promptly completed the maneuver.

"He's going for the overtake!"

"The Chinese rookie chose to make his move on the main straight; does he plan to swallow Rosberg?"

"HRT's TF110 swallowing Mercedes' W01, doesn't it sound a bit surreal?"

"It's quite normal; the TF110 is much faster than imagined, whereas the W01 isn't as fast as believed!"

Members of the pit lane teams had lively discussions, many even with a hint of excitement in their voices.

In the world's narrative, the weaker overcoming the strong always attracts more support.

From an outsider's point of view, whether it's Chen Xiangbei or the HRT Team, compared to Rosberg and Mercedes, they were the underdogs.

But in reality, it was the opposite of the outsider's understanding.

Chen Xiangbei and the HRT Team were the real strong ones!

The TF110 car surpassed the W01's rear wheel, reaching the side box, and then to the nose, running neck and neck.

Rosberg watched helplessly as Chen Xiangbei swallowed him whole, pressing the accelerator down to the engine, and the Mercedes couldn't catch the HRT Racing Car.

This wasn't just the slingshot effect, but also a superior car performance advantage!

As the TF110's trailing speed increased, when entering the braking zone, Chen Xiangbei completed the overtake and took the optimal entry line, blocking Rosberg's path.

At that moment, looking at the black and orange colored car ahead, Rosberg instantly felt his confidence shatter, losing the ability to precisely control his braking. A heavy brake sent the tires into a lock, and with a "bang," a tire burst, making the whole car spin and stop sideways on the track.

Simultaneously, Chen Xiangbei glanced through the rearview mirror, seeing the stalled and surrendering Rosberg, his mouth curled into a faint sneer of disdain.

Future world champion? You've really picked the wrong opponent!
