Soft reds?
Hearing this request from Chen Xiangbei, the team's strategy group, for the first time, didn't give an immediate answer. Everyone was frantically weighing pros and cons in their heads.
The four-car crash in Q2 was enough to show just how slippery the Lingyan Circuit was, and the two cars that went into the wall were almost severely damaged. No one even knew if they could be repaired in time for tomorrow's race.
The two HRT Team drivers had basically changed to a new power unit at almost every round. If Chen Xiangbei hit the wall now, even if it didn't result in serious damage, they still couldn't guarantee there would be enough spare parts to fix the car.
And after fixing the car, he'd have to start from the pit lane.
In the current situation, even if Chen Xiangbei wasn't afraid of Q3, the worst he'd do is start from P10.
But if an accident happened, he'd have to start from P24.
