Chapter 507: S3 British Grand Prix. 5
Buoso Di Renzo ended up failing woefully in his attempt to crash Matteo Bianchi and his Red Bull.
There had been some undeniable uneasiness between Jackson Racing and Bueseno Velocità since Austria, where that heated pitlane altercation involving Di Renzo and Matteo had vaporized sportsmanlike principles for the rest of the season. Di Renzo’s pride was scarred, and Matteo went on to laugh and flash his teeth in the post-race interviews that followed.
Both teams had nonverbally decided to take that rhubarb as a little, ignorable dispute, but not Buoso Di Renzo. He kept everything at the back of his mind—a true warrior. Stadhaven became his battleground for revenge, but unfortunately for him, his execution was clumsy and desperate.
During the heated laps of the first pitstop phase, both drivers thundered into the braking zone of Turn 6. Di Renzo had already begun to make unclean moves, forcing Matteo off his line and across the kerb.
"!!!"
Matteo Bianchi was an unamenable young man. He refused to be bullied, but Di Renzo was strong. Without hesitation, he quickly complained into the radio about the ridiculous driving. By then, Di Renzo had made major progress as he smitted his front wing.
"WOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH!"
For a split second, it looked like both would spin into the barriers, but Matteo’s lightning reactions as an F1 driver saved him. He was unable to unclip his Red Bull by yanking it away. As a result, the wing detached halfway immediately and began to scrape the asphalt.
But at least, he was safe. He survived, yet at the cost of three cars blasting past in pursuit of his assailant, before he could limp back into rhythm.
"Unbelievable bastard!"
Di Renzo’s intent to crash the Velocità rookie, Matteo Bianchi, was as clear as Stadhaven’s skies. Even Jackson Racing couldn’t deny it when they were instantly accused and reprimanded. The stewards wasted no time handing Di Renzo a 10-second penalty, a decision that crushed the Stallions’ slim hopes of clawing back championship points.
"Blatant act of aggression!" Mr. Sutherland raged from the Jackson Racing VIP suite, slamming his fist against a polished table. The calm man had ultimately lost his cool.
