"Matsuboto, are you sure you didn't make a mistake? Did the Chinese newcomer achieve a fastest lap of 2 minutes 19.336 seconds in the rain?"
Nakajima Goro was somewhat surprised; no one understood the limits of a rainy lap time at the Suzuka Circuit better than this former F1 driver.
This kind of lap time is something that even Kobayashi Kamui might not achieve in the rain. It's unbelievable that this Chinese newcomer named Chen Xiangbei accomplished it during his first trial training!
"Yes, I'm sure."
Matsuboto Brown replied through gritted teeth. Nakajima Goro's repeated confirmation was akin to rubbing salt into his wounds.
"You can leave now. I'll discuss further with Director Sawano."
"Yes, Principal Nakajima."
Upon hearing this, Matsuboto Brown's face revealed a look of surprise. It seemed like there was a turning point for him to stay at the school.
