The sixth episode focuses on a crucial race day where the weather plays a pivotal role. Haruka Asahina, the driver for Komaki Motors, starts from a promising fourth place, his best starting position ever. The team is filled with a palpable sense of excitement, as the members cheer Haruka on and trust in his abilities.

Koya Madoka, the team’s photographer, is also present and reflects on his journey from photographing cars to capturing the moments of the drivers. He recalls the tragic accident of Haruka’s father, which he had reported on in the past, and the impact it had on his own career.

As the race approaches, the weather becomes uncertain. Rain begins to fall, and the teams must decide whether to use wet tires or slicks. Haruka opts for slicks, hoping the rain will stop. This decision sparks concern in Koya, as he fears the consequences of racing in the rain with slicks, having experienced loss and regret himself.

The race begins with Haruka’s car on slicks, and he drives cautiously on the wet track. As the track dries, the drivers on wet tires struggle with overheating, allowing Haruka to overtake. However, visibility is poor, and the spray from the other cars makes the race even more challenging.

A collision occurs on the track, but the race continues without major damage. The weather forecast predicts worsening conditions, raising the possibility of the race being red-flagged.

Despite the tension, Haruka remains determined and fights through the difficult conditions. Tragically, Harunaga Satsuki of Belsorriso crashes, casting a somber shadow over the race. The episode ends with the outcome of the race and Harunaga’s condition left uncertain.
