For Kubica, his points and position for the 2010 season are basically fixed; how fast he drives and how many cars he can overtake has become meaningless. What he really wants is a fierce, wheel-to-wheel duel with Chen Xiangbei.
As this scene unfolded before the live audience and the members of all the teams, they could all feel Kubica's fighting spirit. They believed that it would be very difficult for Chen Xiangbei to overtake; even with Perez's car ahead helping him, he might still be held up for one or two laps.
In F1, to be honest, one or two laps of defending doesn't mean much. In many races you can sit in the dirty air of the car ahead for dozens of laps without finding a way through.
But in today's race, one or two laps would be fatal to Chen Xiangbei's charge!
