142 The Weird
Hank's rank lap speed was also very fast, 1 minute, 30 seconds, 69, which was basically the same as his previous best lap score, which means that he has hardly made much progress this month.
However, Hank didn't feel much urgency on his face, because he had already run to 1 minute and 30 seconds in private, which was his killer move.
Moreover, except for Zhang Yifei, it is very difficult for other drivers to run within 1 minute and 32 seconds. He never believed that Zhang Yifei had the strength of about 1 minute and 26 seconds, so Hank performed very easily.
The fact is as Hank expected, the next two drivers had no lap times, and they were about 5 seconds away from him, so it was basically impossible to catch up in the main race.
Soon, Zhang Yifei, who was starting from the 6th place, was looking at him because he was the current youth training driver record. In the last speed test, his fastest speed had reached 1 minute 27 seconds 33, which had already pulled everyone apart.
If it weren't for him letting Hank out for three seconds, to be honest, there would be no suspense in today's simulation game, and Zhang Yifei would have secured a place.
But after three seconds, Zhang Yifei must run to around 1 minute and 26 to be sure of winning. Although it is only more than one second different from Zhang Yifei's fastest speed, you should know that the more you go, the harder it will be to increase lap speed. It is not easy to break through for more than one second.
Zhang Yifei put on all the protective gear and got on the racing car. As the indicator lights turned on, he loosened the clutch like a mechanical movement, rushed out with oil. The engine speed exceeded 10,000 revolutions from the start stage, and the starting reaction was very fast. It can be seen that Zhang Yifei was more serious.
After two months of this track, Zhang Yifei has run countless laps. It can be said that his familiarity is beyond the track he used to be in the Wind Chasing Club. Usually drivers change four tires a week, while Zhang Yifei changed ten tires a week in the craziest week. You can imagine his practice intensity.
To be honest, if it weren't for the Toyota team's training, just changing the tires would have been exchanged for Zhang Yifei to bankruptcy in the past two months.
At that time, even the physical fitness teacher in the team sighed that Zhang Yifei's physical fitness was extremely close to the level of an F1 driver. If it were an ordinary teenage kart driver, this kind of practice intensity could crush people!
The speed of the car begins to increase and the gear shift is loose, because there is no need to step on the clutch. The shifting of the gear depends entirely on the driver's grasp of speed and speed control.
This is very similar to the manual transmission that veteran drivers often boast about shifting gears without stepping on the clutch. In fact, as long as the speed and the speed can perfectly match, civilian manual transmission cars can also shift gears without stepping on the clutch. However, the risk is high. If the work is not done well, there will be a risk of breaking the gearbox gear.
Therefore, this kind of work is generally more common in the Wuling Hongguang, the transmission is cheaper.
Of course, the racing sequential gearbox is not so fragile, because this design does not require clutch shifting, but the feeling of cumulativeness is more obvious than that used in civilians.
Every turn of Zhang Yifei is very accurate. These curve characteristics have been engraved in his mind like a map, so finding the best turn is not a problem for him.
After the qualifying round in one lap, Zhang Yifei took 1 minute, 29 seconds, 11. This speed did not have much difference with Hank, let alone a three-second difference. But everyone here knew that this was just a qualifying round, and the next lap race was the time to truly witness the victory or defeat.
When Zhang Yifei's lap came out, there was even a sense of pride on Hank's face. He also said to the driver next to him: "This guy dares to say that he can let me have three seconds, so he will understand my true strength later!"
This was very loud. Zhang Yifei heard the look of him without any warning behind him and felt Zhang Yifei's gaze. Hank swallowed all the words he wanted to brag about when he came to his mouth.
Zhang Yifei's previous iron fist had caused him a lot of psychological impact. This Chinese guy is not a bully character, he will really hit people!
After Zhang Yifei finished running, the remaining players also ran laps one after another. One of the new drivers had a very impressive results and ran a lap of 1 minute, 31 seconds, and 72 seconds.
You should know that they came one month later than Zhang Yifei and others, which means they were twice as long as they were familiar with the track and vocational training. A month ago, Zhang Yifei was only more than a second faster than this new driver, and this kid was only 14 years old and had great potential to explore.
"Now the ranking results have been determined, and all drivers decide their departure order according to the ranking results. The quota event time is half an hour, and the fastest lap speed is the winner!"
Junko Takeda announced the winning rules, and did not safely set the number of kilometers according to regular professional events. Only the first car that completed the race and was a regular lap can win the championship.
Instead, it adopts a relatively simple fastest lap method, which is also commonly found in simulated events of club internal events and youth training teams. The advantages are short time and simple counting process.
After the winning and losing rules were announced, all drivers parked the car on the track according to their qualifying rankings.
As the pole driver in the qualifying competition, Zhang Yifei ranked first in the inside, and Hank was about one parking space behind and ranked second in the outside.
At this time, Hank's eyes were always on Zhang Yifei. He had even made the most despicable method, which was to slow down the kid's speed even if he collided with Zhang Yifei.
The signal lights above the field began to light up one after another, and the moment the five lights went out, Zhang Yifei rushed out with the accelerator. This time his starting reaction was faster than the qualifying race, and he did not give any chance to the vehicles behind him at all.
Hank's start is actually not slow, but compared to Zhang Yifei, he was widened by one meter at the beginning.
**! Hank cursed in his mouth, and he knew that the Chinese guy had some tricks in the qualifying competition, but he didn't expect that he could start so quickly.
At this time, he stepped on the accelerator and tried his best to follow Zhang Yifei, the car ahead, and at the same time seized the favorable route and blocked the overtaking route of the car behind. After all, his opponent this time was not just Zhang Yifei, but before killing the Chinese, he had to leave all the other rookies behind.
"Yifeijun started very quickly, faster than any of his previous track practices. How much strength did he retain?"
Next to Junko Takeda is Toyota data analyst Ukyo Yamamoto. Usually, driver training is based on Yamamoto's statistics and track information, so compared with Junko Takeda, team manager, Ukyo Yamamoto has a better understanding of driver training results.
"I have no idea."
"I don't know? Yamamoto, this is your dereliction of duty."
At this time, Yamamoto Ukyo replied with a wry smile: "I record the driver's track practice data every day, but this month, I feel that the data of Yifeijun is very abnormal."
"Which point is wrong? His lap speed has broken the record?"
"No, his fastest lap speed is 1 minute 27 seconds 33, you know that."
"Well, this result is very fast, but it is still not enough to get rid of Hank for more than three seconds."
"Yes, just looking at the overall lap speed is like this, but I always have a feeling that Yifeijun's limit is more than that, so I began to monitor his lap speed, but found that the lap speed was terrible, there were no mistakes, but there was never a breakthrough."
