The story continues with Kanata Rivington, competing as Katagiri Kanata, as he approaches the end of his qualifying run for the MFG race. He is pursued by a drone capturing footage for the global audience. Kanata's driving skills are on full display, as he maintains a record-worthy pace, impressing both Ogata and Aiba Shun, who are monitoring his performance.
A new character is introduced: Michael Beckenbauer. He holds the record for the sector Kanata is currently navigating. Beckenbauer isn’t worried about Kanata breaking his record, as he hasn’t even used the highest gear in MFG races yet.
As Kanata nears the end of the course, he faces a long straightaway—the Kamaboko Straight. Despite his car’s limitations, he presses on, but his speed begins to drop. The more powerful models he had previously overtaken start catching up. In a thrilling finale, Kanata finishes in 16th place, missing the race cutoff by a fraction of a second.
Ogata and Aiba meet Kanata after the race to console him. Despite his disappointment, Kanata thanks them for the car and the opportunity. They decide to throw a consolation party, where Aiba makes Kanata promise not to fall in love with or date Number Seven, an MFG angel he has a crush on. Kanata agrees, still confused by an earlier encounter where Number Seven slapped him for unknown reasons.
Meanwhile, it’s revealed that Number Seven is conflicted about her feelings for Kanata. She regrets her actions and worries he now dislikes her.
The episode takes a final turn when it’s announced that a driver has been disqualified for using unauthorized tires. This bumps Kanata up to 15th place, qualifying him for the race. The news is met with cheers by Ogata, Aiba, and Kanata, setting the stage for the next episode.
The episode ends with the characters lively discussing the upcoming race, the prize money, and the competition.
