1
And they're both off!
2
He's in the wall!
3
Bam!
4
Two teammates in each other!
5
I don't believe it!
6
Oh yes, that's a big hit!
7
Clambering out of his Venturi car.
8
Asking how we are on temperatures.
9
Degrassi's very close now to Antonio Felix.
10
Da Costa close enough for a move.
11
Da Costa covers the inside line.
12
Oh, he's going through around the outside.
13
That's never going to work!
14
They're both in the wall!
15
Da Costa off!
16
- Here's a look at the replay, Mark.
17
- Yeah, he's going the long way around, which is always going to be a tough call, then he's going into a right -hander.
18
He's actually made the move, but at the same time, he hasn't quite given up the fact that Da Costa was letting him get away with it.
19
Bye.
20
you And off his bed!
21
Sam Bird, maybe Van Dorn, oh, DaCosta's off!
22
- Sims, I got taken out.
23
I've just got taken out.
24
- That's a bird's out of shape, and then look out, here comes Roland.
25
Bam!
26
Oh yeah, that's broken.
27
That's from where he...
28
- That's post tattoo.
29
- ...louder new furrow in Alexander Sims.
30
- Yeah.
31
A race that promised so much for Nissan.
32
- Yeah.
33
comes through turn 19.
34
One turn to go.
35
Heidfeldt's closing in as they come towards the final corner at turn 20.
36
Is Heidfeldt going to fancy a look into the last corner of the race?
37
Heidfeldt goes to the inside line and they make contact and they're both off and that's an accident for Nick Heidfeldt.
38
He has gone off the circuit.
39
The two of them come together in the final corner
40
which means Lucas Degrassi is going to take victory in the FIA Formula E race here in Beijing.
41
And there is Nick Heidfeldt clambering out of his Venturi car.
42
- It's good to see.
43
- It's fantastic to see Nick Heidfeldt climbing out.
44
Not really the test we wanted and I think we might have a bit of a conversation here between these two
45
And Nick Heidfeldt Not impressed with that.
46
Hydefelt goes to the inside and I mean, I mean that's...
47
Yeah, that's impossible.
48
Stoffel van Doorn in the HWA!
49
I just got in the marbles Jack.
50
Oh yes that was a big hit.
51
Both ends, the side, the top, the bottom.
52
The time when Van Doorn is becoming a bit of a jinx, Stoffel van Doorn wins it every race.
53
He showered up the entry, he defended on entry you
54
And to be done around the outside there on a double right -handed hairpin, that would have been disappointing to say the least for Piquet.
55
And they're very, very close.
56
Turn one again.
57
He's blocking on the inside, Nelson.
58
And Ben's gonna get him this time.
59
He's got the overlap, he's gonna force the issue.
60
Piquet's still there.
61
Piquet's damaged, burns in the barriers and we are going to have a safety card.
62
I passed him, he used me to turn, totally run into me in the middle of the corner
63
and then he didn't leave me any room on the outside
64
and he had plenty of room on the right and he just completely pushed me into the wall.
65
So very, very, very unfair driving from him
66
and now I don't score any points and I have a risk that is really painful.
67
I could clearly see which kind of driver he was today.
68
I know exactly that I passed him, and he used me to break his car and then direct me into the world.
69
So I looked at the videos, at the onboards, and it's very clear.
70
Have you had a chat with him yet?
71
Are you going to speak to him?
72
I don't want to speak to him.
73
So if he has something to say other than apologies, I will not accept anything.
74
Oh!
75
Wow, got airborne.
76
When you've got airborne like that you have no brakes, trust me, I know.
77
Verne came across to cover it.
78
Wow, that's a big hit.
79
A sight slap as well, that really can damage the bones and the pelvis.
80
Let's see how late the defense is from Jon Arr.
81
Look at him looking in his mirror and he just keeps coming across.
82
And there's the contact.
83
That was pointed out pre -race.
84
And there's Sims getting hit.
85
- Oh,
86
Alex Lin's in the wall!
87
Huge shunt!
88
But Alex Lin has gone off at the fastest corner on the circuit at Bound Street.
89
He's in the wall and that is going to be a safety car.
90
Oh, what?
91
Just lost the rear.
92
That was a massive shot.
93
And he lifted his head forward, which is what you do not want to do in a rear impact.
94
He's racing those big singles.
95
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
96
And that is a bit of a confusion under yellow flags.
97
Rosencris will play no further part in the session, and actually, I think this will be a time for the race director to red flag it, because no one's going to get a lap in.
98
So what happens here?
99
This is Oliver Turvey slowing up, slowing up heavily.
100
He's not even looked in his mirrors.
101
He's looking around the corner, because there's a car stopped in front of him.
102
And Rosencris fully committed, fully locked up.
103
Nowhere to go.
104
Yeah, just caught him out there.
105
He saw Oliver slow down for the yellow.
106
and you're just carrying too much speed.
107
I had nowhere to go.
108
Tried to go left.
109
Why was there a yellow there?
110
So Felix is sitting there going, "Oh, come on, really?
111
What happened there?" Oh, in the wall!
112
Back wheels off the ground.
113
We've got two, we've got Lin and we've got Bird taking evasive action as Lin and Mortara.
114
Need another look at it.
115
And this is Alex Lin.
116
In he goes.
117
Another race.
118
on his team in the wall Sebastian money championship leader out
119
of the second free practice session that's a big one football any coming through the bus stop chicane Hurt his hands,
120
has he bashed his head?
121
Has he got...
122
I mean, there's a...
123
Little bit of a flame from the brakes.
124
And the red flag, understandably, is deployed.
125
So that is effectively going to be the end of this second prepractice session.
126
We're not going to get this tidied up in eight minutes.
127
Buemi jumping out of the car reasonably happily.
128
He hit that first apex, the left -handler, you'll see it here.
129
Look, he hits that, knocks it off and straight in.
130
And that tech -pro barrier, I thought it was there.
131
similar to his accident when he was leading the race in Buenos Aires in Season 1. Or bigger.
132
Down towards Turn 8.
133
Everyone just getting a little bit spread out.
134
On the penultimate lap, whoa, that's not true, bam!
135
Degrassi sent spinning, Reince was hit into him by Buemi.
136
Man, what the f* was that?
137
That was Bohemi, mate.
138
That was Bohemi.
139
A ridiculous move.
140
Listen, there's a drive shaft failure, it sounds like, on Lucas Di Grassi's car, because the left rear is disconnected from the rest of the car.
141
Di Grassi's not going anywhere.
142
Freinze has been shunted down the order.
143
Bohemi surely will end up with some kind of penalty from that, from what we saw.
144
Well, Freinze was defending so aggressively, and Lucas Di Grassi was absolutely the innocent bystander.
145
Pressure here comes Heidfeldt, not close enough into six to get the move into the stadium section.
146
Bit of a naughty little weave there to keep him back.
147
And here comes Nico, crossed, he hits him.
148
Round goes Heidfeldt, pirouetting in the stadium and then a shot.
149
And the two teammates hit each other.
150
Mitch Evans is caught up in all of that as well.
151
They all get going, that's going to be a safety car and that could clinch the race for Lucas Degrassi.
152
These guys have got nowhere to go and there's the result.
153
So, yeah, Nico Frost did cause that collision.
154
It wasn't malicious, I don't think, but...
155
And then you see the two Mahindras hit each other.
156
I'll tell you what, Jagger finished P4 and he was.. and he was sideways there.
157
Was that Mitch?
158
Good job, Mitch.
159
There's chaos at turn one and Jean -Marc Verne will not score any points.
160
DS to Cheetah can't believe what they're seeing.
161
Formula E can't believe what it's seeing.
162
Completely close on me on the outside and I had no grip.
163
Let's see what happens.
164
So Verne goes for it on Massa.
165
He's up alongside.
166
Well, he's wheel to wheel.
167
They bang.
168
Oh and Verne.
169
Oh and then they...
170
Oh.
171
Here we go.
172
Here we go.
173
This is the next bit.
174
The critical bit is where that orange part of the wall is.
175
Oh, Felipe.
176
What are you doing?
177
Felipe baby.
178
Oh!
179
Felipe was lucky, thank goodness for the halo.
180
And D 'Ambrosio just powered on through.
181
I mean...
182
It was an aggressive move from Vernon to turn one, but then Felipe Massa just drove him into the wall in two.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
