Chapter 50
After the ERC officials have introduced all the teams, the next thing to do is the much-anticipated opening match.

Both the 8 major manufacturer teams and the Shenhen team have two car groups participating in the race, and everyone is now waiting for the long-awaited starting list.

Speaking of which, the starting rules of ERC races will be changed every year, and this is also a very controversial and very interesting highlight before each race.

But upside down, the starting rules of any car race are nothing more than sequential starting and reverse starting.

Take the touring car championship like GTCC as an example, the grid race is arranged through qualifying, that is, the driver who wins the pole position can start first. There is no room for debate. Since ancient times, first come first served , to some extent, this rule can also be called a kind of sequential departure.

But as for the ERC, in the past few years, the competition also formulated the starting rules based on the driver's points, but sometimes the grid started in order, and sometimes it was arranged in reverse order, which inevitably made the audience friends dizzy.

The reverse starting method is the opposite, that is, the better the performance of the car group, the closer to the end of the starting position. This is very similar to diving, weightlifting and other sports. The masters always appear at the end before the finale.

But why do the rules keep changing?The reason for this has to be attributed to the fact that the track format of ERC is completely different from that of field competitions.

As we all know, all track races are asphalt tracks, but ERC has not only asphalt roads, but also gravel, ice and snow roads because of the freedom to choose the venue. In case of extreme weather such as rain or snow , Dirt roads are also one of them.

Looking at the gravel-based track surface of the Swiss Grand Prix, it can be said that no team is willing to start in the front position.

The gravels are of different sizes and roll around, which greatly affects the tire grip, and the control of grip is almost the top priority in most motorsports.

From this point of view, the car that started first must face the largest amount of gravel, and as the race continues, the gravel on the track will be swept away by the cars that started in front and cleaned up a lot. If less, the grip will come back, so the further back the starting group, the better off it will be.

Then the problem is simple, ERC will definitely arrange the teams with good results to start last, after all, their strength is placed there.

No, sometimes ERC will formulate grid rules that are unfair to high-scoring teams in order not to widen the disparity in the results of various teams.

On the one hand, it increases the competitive nature of the racing competition, and on the other hand, it also improves the appreciation for car fans, which is the best of both worlds.

While waiting, all the members of the god team were praying silently.

"Depart in sequence!"

"Depart in sequence!"

A game is a game. Although Mo Shu has extraordinary strength, who doesn't want to take advantage of the right time and place to be harmonious with others.

After a while, the race officials finally gave out the grid ranking list, and the Shenshen team was impressively ranked first on the grid.

"Hey, it seems that we can't escape the fate of 'sweeper'!" Many people in the team sighed.

Sweeping car is also the nickname given to the first few car groups by ERC fans.

The meaning is very simple, that is, the car in front clears the obstacles on the road to facilitate the opponents behind to improve their performance. It seems that they are really taken advantage of!

But being the first to start in the opening race, Mo Shu thought it was okay.

In his heart, this first start can be described as the opening match of the opening match, and the media and car fans from all over the world look forward to this moment the most every year.

For Mo Shu, this is an excellent opportunity to increase his popularity, but the premise is that the results must be good!
He doesn't want to be the laughing stock of car fans all over the world because of his poor grades, and it doesn't make much sense to be famous for it.

"Mo Shu, as the first ERC driver to start this season, can you talk to everyone about your feelings?" The officially authorized race reporter caught up with the microphone and asked.

Mo Shu was originally reluctant to accept interviews before the game, but Wang Yu told him that this is an official part of the game, and it is impossible not to say so.

"It's an honor, I believe I can come out on top." Mo Shu's answer was simple and clear, full of confidence.

"Cut! Take the top spot?" Roger and fans of other teams saw this interview and snorted coldly with disdain.

In addition, this is a simultaneous live broadcast around the world. There are official signals on TV and the Internet, and there are not only a few disdainful voices at the scene.

Especially in the webcast room, as well as on the major racing forums, there are voices looking down on the gods and Mo Shu all over the world at this time.

"Who is this? Just uttering these two words? Still speaking so loudly? My fans of the British Empire expressed their dissatisfaction."

"Upstairs, I know that the god team is from China, but I am not a fan of the big French cars."

"Does Huaxia have a decent team? Ethiopian fans say they have never heard of it."

"It doesn't matter if you've heard of it or not. Anyway, I only support the Carbon Black Gold team. I'm from Germany."

"On the top floor, Germany is the strongest!"

"You cabbage dogs, our fans of the Minotaur Kamikaze Racing Team haven't spoken yet."

"You archipelago bulldogs, we William Corsair fans haven't allowed you to speak yet."

"Everyone, stop arguing, anyway, everyone is not optimistic about the gods team, are you right?"

"Yes! Support!"

"Support +10!"

"Support +300!"

Fortunately, Mo Shu couldn't see these comments, and it might affect his performance. Wang Yu sighed and locked the phone screen. In the rally, he was a team manager. Wang Yining, the navigator of the co-pilot, died.

"Mo Shu, I was very attentive when surveying the road, don't worry, I'll leave the navigation to me." Wang Yining encouraged Mo Shu.

"No need, you should rest more, as long as you keep the tank halo all the time." I thought Mo Shu would be a little nervous, but I didn't expect him to say it so calmly.

"What? Don't you want me to guide you?" Wang Yining's eyes widened. She had to stay up all night to complete the road book.

"No need, have you forgotten my performance in the game?" Mo Shu said confidently.

"The game session? Is it the game competition between you and Sister Wang and Thomas?" Wang Yining thought for a long time before suddenly realizing.

"That's right, the road book is all in my head!" Mo Shu nodded his head through the helmet and said with a smile.

When did Mo Shu have the ability to memorize directions?Monk Wang Yining and Zhang Er were confused.

Anyway, the car was about to start, so I didn't think too much about it, Wang Yining quickly activated the tank halo in his mind, and Mo Shu's speed halo also shone.

The driver is in place, the car is in place, and the referee is in place.

The first round of the ERC will be kicked off by Mo Shu and Wang Yining in person. All the members of the Shenshen team held their breath, and all the fans in front of the screen were silent.

At the same time, the teams of the eight major manufacturers are waiting for Mo Shu to sweep the ground for them, and the two major rivals, Kaben Heijin and Munich Light, are also waiting to sweep the gods team.

"Hey~~~"

The time on the timer began to pass quickly, and Mo Shu shot out with a perfect start.

 Thank you for the 4 recommended tickets from Dingfeng and Slippers! ! !
