185 Super Training Equipment (Chapter 2)

Looking at Zhang Yifei's solemn thanks, a smile appeared on Cosel's tough face.

"Boy, remember, the championship is your promise to me."

"I'll win the Hoganheim station champion, and Jesus can't keep it, I said!"

Zhang Yifei has already reached the point of burning his boats. There is no way out, and the champion must be won!

"Very good, I appreciate this attitude."

Cosell rarely showed a satisfied smile on his face. Only this incomparable confidence and desire for a championship can make him a great driver.

This is true for Senna, and so is Schumacher.

After arguing for the time to go to the hotel tomorrow, Cosell left the Hoganheim Track first, and Zhang Yifei and the team members began post-race maintenance.

But at this time, Yamamoto Ukyo came to Zhang Yifei and said to him: "Yifei, the tutor told me some communication issues between Ah Hu and the others. I just thought about it and the full English conversation should be in advance."

"What did Cosell say."

"The top team will only need the best maintenance technicians."

Yamamoto Ukyo said Cosel's meaning in a simplified manner, and then continued to add.

"Renault 2000 European Cup is only more than three months, and there is no need to wait until the race is completed. As long as potential drivers emerge, there will definitely be teams coming to contact you."

"It is difficult to replicate Kimi's legend directly entering the F1, but it is promising to enter the F3000 team. Moreover, many powerful F3000 teams are the second team of the F1 team, which can be regarded as cultivating potential drivers."

"If Ahu and Chen Zhi cannot even reach the most basic communication, it is impossible to enter the professional Formula fleet at the f3000 level, and you cannot bring your influence into them. You should understand this."

Yamamoto Ukyo's words made Zhang Yifei silent. He brought Ah Hu and Zhi Ge to Europe. From the perspective of great significance, he was just to lay a foundation for Chinese racing in the future and cultivate a maintenance team belonging to China.

From my own selfishness, if there are people in the fleet, communication will be smoother. And when you are alone overseas, you always feel that you need a capable helper by your side, even if you fight, it is not a pity.

But in reality, based on their foundation, it is too difficult to bring it into a professional team. Language, education, etc. are all obstacles. There is no problem with the primary equation, and even the small f3 team can accept it.

But when they enter the high level of f3000, they are basically considered to be the reserve fleet of f1. They have their own professionals, so they don’t really like wild technicians like Ah Hu and Chen Zhi.

Moreover, with my current strength and identity, it is difficult for the fleet to relax its requirements, after all, there is no capital for negotiation.

"I understand, let's talk about this in detail later."

Since there is not enough capital, we can only change the defects little by little. Whether it is to use force or to squeeze, we must improve the efficiency of Ahu and Chen Zhi.

After the racing maintenance work was completed, it was already evening when Zhang Yifei and his party returned to the hotel.

After taking a shower and having dinner, Zhang Yifei did not go to exercise as usual, but gathered all the team members and talked about English questions.

"Today I will mainly talk about it. In the future, the team will try to use English dialogue to create an all-English atmosphere, so that Ah Hu and Zhi Ge can improve English learning efficiency faster."

Hearing Zhang Yifei say this, Ah Hu immediately turned into a sad face and replied: "Brother Fei, I can't stand it anymore. How can I speak in the whole English in the future."

"I know you have tried your best during this period, but the speed is still too slow. Ziling has two months to report to the British university. The Renault event is only three months away. At that time, you may negotiate contracts with higher-level teams, and there is not much time left."

Zhang Yifei expressed his current concerns. It was not that Ah Hu and the others did not work hard. It was indeed true that Zhang Yifei himself dared not say that he could initially control a foreign language in four or five months.

But time doesn't wait for anyone, and often there is no choice.

"I agree with the full English dialogue. Ah Hu and Zhi Ge, even if it's just bumpy and half-guessing. As long as they can persist in the first half to a month, their English skills will improve by leaps and bounds in the future."

He Ziling first expressed her attitude. She has always been a supporter of all-English dialogue. Because she understood that only by being in the environment can she truly learn a foreign language.

"Yes, I agree with Zi Ling's words. It's not okay for Ahu and Chen Zhi to learn words alone, so they need to communicate."

Junko Takeda agreed that in addition to English, she also studied Chinese. It can be said that she is the foreign language boss in the team and has extremely rich experience.

He Ziling and Junko Takeda said this. Yamamoto Ukyo himself had no objection, so naturally the matter was decided.

Seeing Brother Zhi and Ah Hu looking at the faces of distress, Zhang Yifei came to them and said in a serious tone.

"Brother Zhi, Ah Hu, I know this is difficult for you, but we all came out of Guangzhou and Shenzhen small car repair shops. If we want to gain a foothold in Europe and even enter the world's highest racing hall, the only thing we can do is to fight."

"Not only you, I'm also fighting, we have no choice."

This is what Zhang Yifei said in his heart. It can be said that every step he takes is difficult on the road to equation.

There is no super rich father, nor the racing culture behind it. Even if you have experience in your previous life, it is actually not very useful at this level.

All that is left is fighting, and for them, they have no choice.

Ahu and Zhige also knew that Zhang Yifei did this for his own good, and to be honest, even Zhang Yifei himself was constantly working hard to improve, wanting to gain a foothold in the European Formula Field.

Even he can work like this, why can't he learn English by himself? This world will always favor those who work hard and are prepared.

"Brother Fei, I will come on."

"Don't worry, Brother Zhi won't drag you down."

Zhang Yifei smiled with relief, then patted the arms of both of them, and everything was silent.

At about nine o'clock the next morning, Cosell drove over in a pickup truck, and there were several large wooden boxes in the trunk. Then he greeted Zhang Yifei and said, "Move these boxes to the hotel room to assemble them, and they will be used in training in the future."

"Cosell, what's in it?"

Zhang Yifei was surprised to see several large wooden boxes. Isn’t Cosell talking about racing training? Is it necessary to build such a large formation?

"It's a set of simulation training equipment. It was used by professional drivers of McLaren before. It was in use in my manor for some years, and it just happened to be suitable for your current training."

Simulation training equipment? Zhang Yifei is still confused. He is not very familiar with the F1 training method. He is just from the Toyota youth training base, he has been exposed to basic training in the primary equation and is far from reaching the level of F1.

In addition to the later videos and news, I know that F1 drivers are generally trained using racing simulators in addition to physical exercise.

This racing simulator is similar to playing racing game consoles in a gaming hall, but it is more advanced and realistic. It uses a multi-screen cockpit virtual environment, steering wheel gear ratio strength, linear strength of various pedals, and simulated acceleration of multi-axis motors under the cockpit, etc., which try to simulate the feeling of real driving f1.

Basically, this kind of racing simulator is similar to the flight simulator used to train pilots, and the price is also extremely expensive, with one simulator as high as tens of millions.

However, this is 1999, and F1 drivers are not prohibited from taking private tests on the track, so they do not need to use any racing simulator. Even if there are, due to the level of electronic industry in this era, they cannot achieve the realistic high-tech equipment like later generations. Kossell should not bring such things.

As several people moved the wooden box to the room, Zhang Yifei's doubts were resolved. It was indeed a simulator similar to a racing cockpit, but it was not used to exercise driving skills, but to exercise the body.

There is a steering wheel in the cockpit that can also rotate freely, but its rotational path is weighted by the barbell plate. In other words, every rotation is like grabbing a barbell, which can exercise the muscles of the arm.

In this era, drivers all need the "kirin arm", otherwise they will not even be able to rotate the most basic steering wheel. It is obvious that this equipment is used to exercise arm strength.

However, is it necessary to build a racing cockpit like this just by simply exercising the strength of your arms? You can achieve the same effect by using dumbbells, bench presses, etc., and there is no need to do such a mess.

But soon Cosell answered Zhang Yifei's doubts. In one of the wooden boxes, there was a specially made racing helmet with various anchor hooks on it, and then it was pulled and linked by several steel wires on it.

That is, after putting on the helmet and turning the steering wheel, there will be a force pulling the head and deflecting it, simulating the huge g value brought by the track when turning. This method also has a real sense of direction of the track g value, which can make the body adapt faster.

"You are still a minor and your body has not been completely formed. In addition, the primary equation is not fast, so you can temporarily use 20kg of counterweight. When you gradually adapt, use 30kg of counterweight to exercise your neck muscles."

30kg? Zhang Yifei couldn't help but stick out his tongue when he heard this number. You should know that Zhang Yifei used a pull rope to exercise, which is 10kg of strength, and now he will be tripled.

It is equivalent to every neck muscle exercise that carries the weight of a child. And it is not the easy way to lower your head and raise it. It is more of a side counter to improve the ability to withstand horizontal centrifugal force, which is even more terrifying than the "Kilin Arm" training.

"If you don't want to break your neck on the track in the future, it's best to use it every day. Put the things here first, and now find a quiet place. I'll explain to you the system's racing knowledge. Your foundation is too poor."

Cosel had no nonsense, he had brought the things with him, and whether to use them is Zhang Yifei's question.
