Imaizumi wins the battle in the rain and rides in the lead. Sakamichi catches up to him, and Sugimoto and the other supporting members cheer for Team Sohoku as they ride alone in the lead. While Sohoku goes for the one-two finish, Kuroda and Manami of Hakone Academy close in from behind. Kuroda sends off Manami, who instantly jumps into the lead. The dangerous situation leaves Sakamichi bewildered, but there's only one thing he can do for the team. Imaizumi gives him the final order of taking their jersey to the finish line, and Sakamichi chases after Manami at full power...!
It's fine in the mountains, 
but on flats, he'd get left behind,
Berge sind okay, aber auf Ebenen
wird er so noch abgehängt.
En montaña va bien,
pero en llano se queda rezagado,
En montaña va bien,
pero en llano se queda rezagado,
Sui pezzi in salita non è un problema,
ma in quelli in piano resta sempre indietro.
Nas montanhas não tem problema,
mas nos trechos planos, ele fica pra trás.
В горах это ещё приемлемо, 
но на ровных участках он отстаёт.
