Jung Jong-jin, who won the Grand Prix five times, and Lim Chae-bin, who wrote the myth of winning in a total of 60 appearances last year, have been building a solid second-tier system since 2021. On the day of the confrontation between the 'living legend of bicycle' Lim Chae-bin and the 'King of bicycle' Jung Jong-jin, there will be a flurry of rumors over whether it is Lim Chae-bin this time or Jeong Jong-jin this time.
Until the previous competition, Lim Chae-bin led the opponent with 6 wins and 1 loss, and the weight was sharply tilted to Lim Chae-bin. In particular, after Jung Jong-jin defeated Lim Chae-bin in the Grand Race in April for the fifth consecutive time, the prevailing view was that the era of Lim Chae-bin's one-man solo system has begun. That's because for Jeong Jong-jin, who was born in 1987, there is always a risk of an aging curve (aging curve) where his ability to exercise decreases at a certain age and his skills decline.
However, Jung Jong-jin completely reversed the public's assessment by winning this tournament and proved himself that it was not a `dead year.'

Currently, Jeong Jong-jin has a winning rate of 87% so far, and the solidarity rate is a whopping 98%. The only case out of the prize winning ticket was the failure of the method before pulling out of the target race in February and ended up in the fourth place. It is an outstanding performance that is not much different from Lim Chae-bin's 92% winning rate and 100% solidarity rate.
This record is not inferior to Lim Chae-bin's own record from 2016 to 2019, when he won four consecutive Grand Prix titles before his appearance and reigned as 'Experience Emperor'.
The solidarity rate is higher this year, and even in 2016 and 2018, it was pushed out of the prize pool four times, but it is all the more surprising that even though he faced Lim Chae-bin eight times this year, he did not win the prize once.

Now, the confrontation between the two is expected to take place at the Grand Prix later this year. As a result, the attention of everyone who loves the race is also focused on the Grand Prix.
Park Jin-soo, team leader of the expected magazine 'Dr. Kyung-ryeon', said "All the indicators of Jeong Jong-jin's race performance this year are not much different from those of his heyday before Lim Chae-bin appeared" On the contrary, the speed became faster than then, and the vision of reading the game and the determination to float the number of wins became better. Jung Jong-jin, who added to his confidence with the complete victory of this competition, declared to Lim Chae-bin that `unfinished war' and is aiming to win six Grand Prix titles for the first time in history."
