How far has the 20 17 China Rally Championship been completed?

September 27 th news. 20 17 China Du Liang Eco-Water City China Rally Championship completed its second competition day last night (26th), and the competition officially entered the asphalt special stage from yesterday (26th). After four special stages, Britain's Mark Higgins and FAW-Volkswagen's Darren Garaude won the first place with strong strength, ahead of Australians Christopher Atkinson and Dale Moscat who represented Subaru China Magic Rally Team for the first time in Guizhou Mountain Circuit. Higgins' teammates, Taiwan Province teenagers Lin Dewei and Peng are temporarily ranked third, while China drivers are the first. Subaru China Magic Rally Team Fan Heyue, FAW-Volkswagen Team and Zhang Yundong ranked second and third respectively in China drivers' list.

On the first day of entering the asphalt special stage, the unpredictable weather in Guizhou mountainous area gave all the contestants a fright. The sudden heavy rain and fog have affected the performance of many drivers, and the wet and dry roads have also brought challenges to all drivers in driving and tire strategy. The steep and fast asphalt track has caused many drivers to encounter braking problems. In the next race, how to protect the brakes during the race will become a major topic for drivers.

Higgins of FAW-Volkswagen became the fastest driver of the day. All four special stages ranked first, and his excellent performance made him quickly make up for the disadvantage after yesterday's super stage, and he overtook the fifth and took the lead. Although it was also hit by the rain, the experienced British driver said that it was on the slow road at that time, so the impact was not great.

For FAW-Volkswagen, today is a mixed day. Although Higgins and Lindewei occupied the first and third place in the whole race, the cars of Chen De 'an and Wang Yang, another important car group, rushed out of the front line because of car failure. Facing the strong pursuit of Subaru China Magic Rally Team, FAW-Volkswagen Team had to awaken the spirit of 12.

Atkinson, who drove the Subaru XV car on the asphalt for the first time, showed a fast learning speed. Regrettably, after four special stages, he was slightly behind his opponent Higgins, and the gap between them has reached more than half a minute. Atkinson said after the game, "Today's performance is not too bad. The rain in the morning forced me to drive carefully, and I didn't have a chance to work harder until the afternoon. " The opponent's speed is obviously faster, so we need to make further adjustments to make the car squeeze out more speed. Now it seems that it is not easy to narrow the gap. However, the car runs smoothly, and I have to feel the car more to make it run faster on the asphalt road. "

Han Han, who suffered a mistake in the Subaru China Magic Rally team yesterday, showed the true colors of "double champion" of the venue and rally on the asphalt road, and successively won the "fastest driver in China" in the special stage. In the fierce catch-up, Han Han has surpassed the sixth place in the race and the fourth place in China. Despite this, the gap between him and his main rival has not narrowed significantly. It is not easy for Han Han to win the championship in this competition. He said, "For me, because yesterday's mistakes caused great losses, today my opponent and I won and lost in four special stages, so we didn't narrow the gap quickly. Therefore, I will try my best to move forward tomorrow and get as many points as possible. "

Fu Junfei and Zhou Yong, the teams of Haoting Rally, became the only cars in the international group to break into the top ten of the whole race, and their lead in the group was relatively stable. They said that due to the influence of rain and mountain fog in the morning, they ran more conservatively, increased their speed in the afternoon, and the whole day's race went smoothly.

Zhao from Longxiang Automobile Club and Shi Chunlei and Zhou from Guizhou Lingzhi Rally Team won the second and third place in the international group respectively.

In terms of the national two-wheel drive group, Yi Jie Zhuomaquan Sky Rally teams Hu Yunfei and Lei Zhu reached the summit, which temporarily led the S2 level of the national two-wheel drive group. JAC Rally Team's, Yu and Zhu Shengping swept the second and third place.
