At the beginning of the second lap, he could clearly feel that all drivers' speeds began to increase. Zhang Yifei was no exception. The engine speed had been pulled to ten thousand revolutions, and the brake point in the corner was constantly delayed. He no longer paid attention to the drivers ahead, but just ran at his own pace.

This is why the F1 qualifying competition later chose to reform. Even though Renault added the final knockout system and reduced the time to less than half an hour, the intensity of the qualifying competition was still not as good as the three-stage style of F1 later.

Because there is no danger of being eliminated immediately, many drivers are not too slow for the first few laps, thinking that their next lap will be faster, resulting in a fewer scenes of crazy competition and overtaking, and the viewing ability will naturally decrease.

In the third lap and the fourth lap, the track lap speed was constantly refreshed. When it came to the tenth lap, Zhang Yifei's fastest lap speed had reached 1 minute 58 seconds 221, exceeding the previous fastest lap speed in the test run. It was 1 minute 55 seconds 861 away from the track record, and the gap narrowed to within three seconds.

At the same time, the title of the fastest lap driver has also been transferred. Polish driver Masa has surpassed Suarez of the Prema team and has arrived at the top of the list, with a lap of 1 minute 56 seconds 821.

The competition time is now half over, and there are about ten minutes left before the end of the half-hour qualifying match.

The fuel tank weight is about 20 kilograms lower than the beginning, and as the competition continues, the fuel weight will continue to decrease.

The weight impact of dozens of kilograms is actually not obvious for ordinary vehicles, but it is very important for Formula Racing cars with only a few hundred kilograms.

Especially in the F1 arena, how much oil is, what oil is added, and how many times it takes to add oil for a race are all a tactic. In 2004, the French Ferrari team Schumacher four-stage tactics will be a classic case, even if it is twenty years later.

The qualifying race has also entered a white-hot stage. All the drivers understand that the time has come, and the remaining ten minutes are the moment to run out of their fastest lap speed. Even the drivers who ranked low know that this is the last chance to try hard and start to crazily increase their speed.

Suddenly, the atmosphere on the court became intense, and the cheers in the audience began to increase greatly. Because Monza has decades of competition history, the audience here understands that the real competition in the qualifying competition is in the last ten minutes.

Zhang Yifei also has heavy accelerator acceleration. Even if he cannot compete for pole position or the starting order of the top three, he must at least be relatively ahead. Because there are still 20 cars racing on the track in the main race, and the competition will be more intense, and it will be a disadvantage to be ranked lower.

This era is not like the development of electronic technology twenty years later. Even the F1 racing car is not equipped with information flow in the car, displaying lap speed and rankings in real time, and still confirming the information on the field by voice, let alone such Renault junior racing car, the configuration is naturally much simpler.

Thirty seconds ago, Zhang Yifei and Yamamoto Ukyo talked to him. He already knew that his fastest lap speed is 1 minute 58 seconds 221, and his ranking has also risen by one to eighth.

However, the gap with the drivers behind is very small, with the gap being around 300 milliseconds. If you are not careful, you will fall out of the top ten.

The top four seed players have already reached 1 minute and 47 seconds, setting a qualitative gap with most drivers. If nothing unexpected happens, the pole position will be born among them.

In history, Masa won the pole position of the Monza Track. Now he is still ranked first. The potential of the future F1 driver has been shown. If nothing unexpected happens, history will not change.

Zhang Yifei started to accelerate, and the European drivers behind him would not surrender. They did not allow themselves to lose to a Chinese newcomer.

Asian drivers in this era have not been taken seriously by the European racing circle. Many Japanese drivers traveling around Europe are marginal figures who are excluded.

Take Sato Dao for example. Because of his good performance in Europe F3, he was signed as a test driver by the B.A.R team, the f1 team, which had poor strength at the time.

The reason why he signed Sato Takuma was not only his own strength, but actually it had a lot to do with Honda being the sponsor of the B.A.R team and his partner. As a result, Sato Takuma sat on the bench for a year and was a water dispenser guardian who had no chance to play.

In the end, I could only continue to participate in the UK F3 level competition as an F1 test driver, and you can see how weird this status is.

Later he was signed by Jordan team and finally officially played. To be honest, Sato was not too bad. At least he could get points. There were still many drivers who were worse than him who couldn't get points.

But the reason behind this is also related to Honda, because it is the engine supplier of Jordan team. When Honda no longer supports Jordan team, Sato Takuma was once again said goodbay by the team.

So if Japanese car manufacturers do not support him, Sato may not be able to overcome the threshold of the official F1 driver. There are certainly reasons for the radical technology and driving style, but if he is a European driver, his career journey will be much easier.

The latter race cars began to bite the car in front, especially the No. 19 race car close to Zhang Yifei. Before entering Turn 3, they suddenly accelerated and were directly in a side-by-side stage with Zhang Yifei, preparing to seize the inside line of the curve.

At this time, Zhang Yifei held on his own route and did not give the other vehicle a chance. As the curve approached immediately, he would definitely brake and slow down, otherwise the cornering speed would be too fast and would lose control.

However, the 19 next to him was racing, and there was no sign of slowing down. In order to seize the inside route, he even pushed the racing car towards Zhang Yifei. At this high-speed state, it felt like it was about to hit him.

If you want to use a more simple example to explain it, it is like an ordinary vehicle on the road and there is no room for overtaking to change lanes and plug in when it is on the road.

The tire distance between the two racing cars is already in a very unsafe state of closeness. Although this is Zhang Yifei's first Formula race, he still understands the basic rules.

This is a qualifying competition, not a main competition, so there is no need to overtake at such a high risk. It even exceeds the high risk range, as if Zhang Yifei is afraid of slowing down and getting out of the detour.

Zhang Yifei greeted him in Cantonese in his heart. After becoming a professional driver, he has been cultivating his character for a long time, and even faced with some street provocations, he can laugh it off.

However, this dangerous driving behavior is clearly bullying his novice. Schumacher was angered at all, and he performed a full martial arts scene on the track, and he didn't have such a good temper.

Here I have to say that Sato Takuro, the strongest Asian driver at the moment, is that although this guy is often criticized by European media and with various out-of-charge withdrawals, many people regard him as a joke.

But one thing that Zhang Yifei admired was that he drove the bloody nature of an Asian driver. No matter who his opponent was, he had the courage to overtake and was not afraid of the competition on the track. Even Schumacher had been hit by him several times.

So in the face of this kind of scene, Zhang Yifei did not slow down, but instead kicked the accelerator. Isn’t it just to be timid first?
