The wave of the flag signals the start of the race, and the cars roar off their starting marks. Number 7 takes the first turn, kicking up a storm of wind and dust. The trailing racer accelerates in the slipstream, attempting an overtake, but loses control and spins out of the corner. Meanwhile, Number 5 pushes the engine to its limits, successfully passing Number 7 and slipping through the apex first. What a sizzling start to the Italian Grand Prix!

Yes, you might spin off the track, but the key is to finish first—so… pedal to the metal!
