Here's another one where I was 11 seconds behind, but I never bothered going on the grass when I raced Oxide and Velo. Now, you have no choice, and whether or not you'll win depends on how well you can perform on the grass. It feels really bad when you slow down, but don't forget that he does too, and his run certainly isn't perfect. The most important thing is to make sure you don't run out of reserves, so keep boosting.
