What are the psychological tactics used by drivers during races

[RhysDickson]

Sure! Here are four different responses to that question:

**Mind Games**: Drivers often play mind games with each other. They might try to psych out their opponents by showing confidence or even acting a bit reckless. It’s all about getting into someone else's head and making them second-guess their moves on the track.

**Pressure and Patience**: Some drivers use pressure to force mistakes. They’ll stick close behind another driver, making them feel the heat. But then there are those who play the long game, staying calm and waiting for the right moment to make a move when their opponent is likely to crack.

**Body Language**: Drivers are super aware of body language. They’ll watch for signs of hesitation or stress from their competitors. If they see someone getting flustered, they might take that as a cue to push harder or take a risky overtake.
