Amid the roar of karting engines, the Salerno Station race came to a smooth conclusion.
After the organizers had prepared the podium, an excited announcement came over the broadcast: "Next, let's welcome the drivers from our mini category! They are our third-place winner from Romalia, Herbert Verilic, and our second-place winner from Italy, Dionysios Makos."
As the announcer finished, cheers and applause erupted from below the stage as the two young boys in their racing suits walked onto the podium.
What was puzzling, however, was that the third-place winner, Herbert Verilic, was all smiles and exceptionally excited to be on the podium, while the second-place winner looked thoroughly unhappy.
"And now, let's welcome our champion, a driver from Hua Country, Wu Shi!"
"WOOO!!!" Seth cheered from the sidelines with the mechanics and other team members, waving a team flag they had prepared in advance, which was printed with the team's name.
