What is the effect of weather on correction in hot and rainy summer?

In summer, in addition to the athletes' original skills and motor performance, there are additional variables to consider in racing reasoning. First of all, the hot weather can disrupt the players' concentration and cause mistakes in starting or turning, and the high water temperature can also affect the performance of the motor. In particular, there are variables caused by rain because it rains a lot during the rainy season like these days.
▶How does the heat affect the correction?
The biggest effect of heat is also physical problems. In some cases, even in the scorching heat of nearly 40 degrees Celsius, athletes wear helmets and various protective equipment to compete for safety. Participating in such a race itself is a huge exhaustion of physical strength, and in fact, many athletes lose weight every time they compete.
What is needed to analyze this is the attendance table. The contestant's ticket contains various information such as weight changes and designated practice records, and it can be seen that it is more important than any other season to carefully examine this information.
On the other hand, the hot weather also significantly affects the performance of the motor. Higher water temperatures reduce the output of the motor as a whole, and in some cases, motors of that degree may come out. These changes in motor performance should be examined through a definitive inspection record or an introductory paragraph record.

What if it rains? If it rains lightly, there will be no special problem, but if it rains hard enough to interfere with the players' view, the inside is often advantageous.
The race is primarily run on a 'Flying Start' basis, with six runners running the boat at full speed and having to cross the starting line between 0 and 1 second. At this time, the player who crosses the starting line close to 0 seconds can gain an advantage. However, players who pass the starting line earlier than this will be disqualified for violating the pre-start. Therefore, if it rains a lot and the view becomes blurred, the possibility of a violation of the pre-start increases, forcing a stable start rather than an early start.
In addition, when it rains heavily, strong winds inevitably blow together. Usually, players in the middle or outside take the lead by showing a strong winding technique, but if there is a lot of wind, the boat may flip, so there is no choice but to make a stable turn. For this reason, if it rains a lot, the inside closest to the turnmark is inevitably more advantageous than usual.
So if it rains a lot, there is a high possibility of an unusual event. As mentioned above, most of the players make a cautious turn, so if good players are assigned seats in the middle or outside, it is not easy to succeed in the turnaround unlike usual. On the other hand, even underdog players who are often allowed to come from behind due to lack of skills, if they are lucky to lead after turning the first turn mark, the probability of crossing the finish line will increase and an unexpected event will occur.
Experts said, `It is more likely than usual that during the hot summer season, the athletes' concentration is at its lowest point,' adding, `It is necessary to watch with interest the ambush that can help the development to its advantage rather than the race reasoning that relies on the athletes' rankings or skills.'
