A Premonition of Defeat (敗北の予感, Haiboku no Yokan, "Premonition of defeat") is the eighty-seventh chapter of Initial D.

Plot[]

The two racers enter the first corner, and Seiji admits that Takumi has skill in the corners, but still doubts he can lose to an Eight-Six.

At the top of Akina, the members of Emperor wonder why Seiji hadn't overtaken immediately. They realise he must be following a strategy, but they aren't sure why he would need one to beat an Eight-Six. Kyoichi admits its unlikely Seiji will lose, but that it isn't impossible, and that he needs to follow the strategy to win.

Takumi and Seiji race through the corners. Seiji begins to get impatient, and decides to drop the strategy.
