"Ghoen, no wonder the Chinese boy rejected your invitation. He is indeed very personal."

In the VIP seat of the track, an old man sitting in a wheelchair teased Ghosn, the vice president of Renault, next to him. The old man is Frank Williams, the founder of Williams team.

Hearing this sentence, Ghosn's face was a little unnatural. After all, for someone of his identity, being rejected by a junior driver was a very shameless thing.

Seeing Ghosn next to him without saying anything, Sir Williams continued: "I have actually paid attention to Fei and I am very strong, but in this game today, the pole position will only belong to Williams' Dickson!"

Sir Williams' tone was very confident. This time he came to the Manicur Track. In addition to Ghosn's invitation, he wanted to witness Dickson win the pole position with his own eyes.

You should know that Dickson was signed by Sir Williams himself and is a new team member who is focused on training this year. If nothing unexpected happens, he is likely to join the Williams F1 team in the future.

"Sir Williams, don't say too early. The Renault Formula brings together the top drivers in Europe, and everyone is very strong. Besides, Dixon's current results are not as good as the Chinese newcomer."

Ghosn also responded with dissatisfaction, because he and Sir Williams were old friends, so he did not have any hypocritical politeness.

In fact, not only Ghosn has a good relationship with Williams, but also a good partner between Renault and Williams team.

Among the nine championships Williams has won in history, five of them use engines provided by Renault, which can be said to be mutually successful.

"That's because Dixon didn't play his full strength. Today's qualifying match will be his showtime."

Williams said this with a smile, which made him feel full of confidence. The reason is also very simple, that is, Dixon once trained at the British headquarters and showed amazing strength, not inferior to Kimi Raikkonen who created miracles last year.

However, Dixon has a strange personality and is a driver who does his own way. Only when meeting a real master can he stimulate his desire for victory. Zhang Yifei is his latest goal.

"Sir Williams, it's understandable to be optimistic about his drivers, but it's not that easy to win the pole position today. Whether it's Masa, Kubica who was defeated in the last stop, or even Suarez and Markina, they are all eyeing him to prove himself."

After saying these names, Ghosn hesitated for a moment and finally added: "There is still Fei."

Putting aside the unpleasantness caused by the invitation, Ghosn would choose to invite Zhang Yifei as a development driver at the beginning, so he naturally agreed with his strength.

And Ghosn also has to admit that Zhang Yifei is the strongest and most conspicuous driver so far. Even if he is second in the standings, he is one of the sub-station champions.

"It seems that President Ghosn, you are still very good at Fei."

"Since you are optimistic, you have to give enough treatment to impress the driver. For example, if Fei can defeat Dixon today, I will give him a test driver contract."

In addition to abandoning the drivers ruthlessly, Sir Williams will also give him enough things to the drivers he joins. Even as the current Big Three team in the F1 paddock, he is not stingy with a test driver contract.

It is precisely because Williams is willing to invest that he still has drivers willing to join Williams in his reputation as "ruthless".

"Would you like to give a test rider contract?"

Even though he knew that Williams was very pragmatic in his style, this surprised Ghosn, after all, Williams was not those small teams.

"Of course, it depends on whether Fei has the strength to win, but I don't think he has much hope today."

"Then let's wait and see."

Ghosn's interest also rose at this time, after all, this is a top-notch contract.

If Zhang Yifei can get pole position and become the test driver of Williams team, it will not only be that he has completed the "three-level jump" by himself, but also have a huge publicity effect for Formula Renault, which is no less than Kimi signed with Sauber before, which is a win-win situation!

On the track, Zhang Yifei was ready, and Cosell and the others had already left the track and stood behind the fence.

The indicator light above began to light up, and a countdown of 30 minutes appeared on the other sign.

All drivers locked their eyes tightly on the indicator light. Although the speed of starting does not affect the fastest lap, they still have an advantage when they can reach the front.

In addition to locking the indicator lights on the track, many drivers also turned their attention to Zhang Yifei. Today, he has become a "public enemy" on the track. In order to prove that they are not cowards, the best way for these drivers is to defeat Zhang Yifei!

The moment the starting indicator light went out, the roar of the engine instantly resounded throughout the field, and all the drivers slammed the accelerator wildly, seizing a good position at the fastest speed.

The same is true for Zhang Yifei. He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, delaying his upshift time and trying to keep the engine sufficient torque. In terms of starting, it will accelerate after encountering obstacles.

Just as Zhang Yifei predicted, the drivers with parking spaces in front of him frantically moved inwards after starting, trying to block Zhang Yifei's driving route. Even if he was slower, it didn't matter, at least he would let out a sigh of anger first.

"Damn, is this still a professional racing car? These drivers are not planning to compete for pole positions?"

Behind the fence, Ah Hu, who had not returned to the maintenance station, saw that other drivers were surrounding Zhang Yifei frantically and didn't even care about his speed, so he couldn't help but complain.

"The trees are fascinated by the forest, and the wind will destroy them."

Brother Zhi replied quietly, and said a rare sentence.

"Brother Zhi, I've learned English now and I have a headache. Please stop speaking ancient Chinese!"

Ah Hu was so sad at this time. Brother Zhi must have been stupid during this period.

"No wonder Yifei said you are not educated. You really have to see more and learn more in the future!"

Seeing that these two people were still in a nonsense, Yamamoto Ukyo shook his head helplessly. The situation on the track was far less optimistic, and Zhang Yifei was obviously targeted by other drivers.

You should know that normal qualifying competitions, everyone wants to run their fastest lap, and they don’t care about being overtaken or something.

Because when you make defensive moves, you will inevitably disrupt your route and slow down. But your opponent is far more than the one behind you. Instead of doing such a loss-making move, it is better to run your own and strive for a better ranking order.

But the situation is completely different now. If other drivers do this, they will inevitably suppress Zhang Yifei's lap speed. Even if they exceed this, there will be another one, or even all of them. Maybe there will be drivers who mount the lap to cause trouble.

"Teacher, the situation is very serious."

Yamamoto Ukyo couldn't help but say something.

"Um."

Cosel nodded. To be honest, this situation was something he had not expected, and it was even the first time in the Renault series.

"I can only break the situation by flying myself."

After saying this, Cosell turned around and walked towards the repair station.

Seeing that the mentor had no good idea, Yamamoto Ukyo sighed and could only rely on Ichiki himself.

Zhang Yifei on the other side also had a very serious expression on his face. He thought that some drivers were not convinced and would definitely make trouble for themselves on the track. After all, many race rules and punishments are not severe in this year. It is common for F1 races to knock opponents out of the track. What's wrong with the primary formula blocking your way?

But Zhang Yifei did not expect that there would be so many drivers who would stop him. Basically, as long as he surpassed one car, the other car in front would inevitably adopt a defensive attitude and lower Zhang Yifei's speed.

Because it was a qualifying race, Zhang Yifei didn't care about the order of his parking spaces, so he still had more than a dozen racing cars in front of him. If he did this every time, his previous laps would be useless.

And what's more serious is that these drivers seem to have reached a tacit understanding, just blocking themselves and letting other drivers go beyond the past.

This creates another situation, that is, even if Zhang Yifei surpasses one car, the integer may not be reduced.

"The exciting qualifying race has finally begun, but the situation on the track today is a bit strange. Many drivers take defensive attitudes to block the cars behind them just like the main race."

"If I read it correctly, it seems that there is only one driver who is blocked, that is, the Chinese driver flying. This situation is very rare in Formula events, and only the wingman of the same team will do such white gloves."

"But today, these drivers all chose to stop Fei. It seems that some comments before the race angered the drivers on the scene. This is their response. I wonder what strategy will Fei take to break the current situation?"

The event commentator Red explained the situation on the track in an unexpected tone. To be honest, he has been engaged in formula commentary for several years, and it is the first time he has seen such a scene appear on the track.

After all, it is very simple to offend one person. It is really difficult to offend all opponents and let them unite to target them. Unfortunately, Zhang Yifei happened to do this.

"Fuck, I'm shameless. What about fair competition on the track?"

"If you think you are not a coward, you can defeat the driver Fei with dignity. Using this despicable means, a group of people will fight one by one?"

"Damn it, it's a bunch of people who can't afford to lose!"

Some people in the audience started to yell and scold, and to be honest, they really wrongly accuse the drivers on the track.

They did not choose to collude to target Zhang Yifei, this situation would occur, which was purely a coincidence.
