After passing the Lub bend of Silverstone, we then entered a complex low-speed slow detour section.

This is also the feature of Silverstone Track. The entire track can be completely divided into two parts.

The first half is basically continuous high-speed curves, and even the kind that can pass through the throttle as long as the route is accurate. This period of the journey emphasizes good downforce and aerodynamic balance, and requires the team engineers to adjust the racing aerodynamic kit very accurately.

This is the most difficult thing for many individual paid drivers and some small teams. Because aerodynamic engineers are the top technicians in the entire racing project.

Generally speaking, such aerodynamic engineers work in the world's top companies or fleets, and cannot serve individual drivers or small fleets.

But this is exactly the most prominent point of Zhang Yifei's team at present. With Cosell's presence, Zhang Yifei never needs to consider aerodynamic adjustments.

The second half of Silverstone track is complicated with slow curves at low speeds, which requires the car to have good mechanical grip and excellent torque performance.

Needless to say, mechanical grip is needed, because the racing car is at a low speed, the aerodynamic kit cannot provide enough air downforce. So at this time, the racing car needs to rely on its own mechanical grip, such as tires, chassis, and suspension.

Excellent torque also belongs to the category of racing mechanical power, and sharp deceleration when entering corners is not difficult for the equation. Because the grip of the bald tire is too strong and the weight of the car body, you can reduce the speed by stepping on the brake slightly.

But when you go out of a corner, it depends on the engine's power, especially the excellent low torque, which will determine the acceleration of the car.

However, the Renault Formula is a standard racing car, and all drivers drive mass-produced models, so there is no difference in power, and the mechanical field is not the focus.

This is why, when Toyota's technical team evacuated, Zhang Yifei was able to barely support the competition with Ah Hu and Chen Zhi. It was because there was no need to train the mechanical quality, and the difficulty was reduced to the minimum.

However, this complex track terrain is extremely challenging for drivers. High-speed corners are worthy of the driver's tangent, while low-speed corners are worthy of the driver's handling accuracy.

Whether it is turning the steering wheel angle or controlling various brakes, gear shifts, and acceleration timing, it is always testing the driver's hard strength.

Especially when the main race is played, continuous low-speed turns will squeeze the car into a ball. At this time, in addition to the control of the car itself, the drivers' choice of overtaking and defensive routes are also tested.

In summary, this is a double competition between physical strength and mental strength, and strength and plan are indispensable.

It is precisely based on these factors that historically, the probability of safety vehicles on Silverstone Track being deployed is as high as 60%, and most accidents occur in low-speed and slow-bending areas.

However, these difficulties are nothing to Zhang Yifei now. The 12 main bends of the Silverstone Track have been deeply engraved in his mind, and what he is waiting for is the opportunity to go to the track to test the field.

With the brake point, tangent line, cornering acceleration, and gear shifting timing, Zhang Yifei dared not say that he had done perfectly, but at least he had a smooth flowing and smooth manner, and was more proficient than any previous track.

"Teacher, Yifeijun may really have no opponent this time."

Yamamoto Ukyo looked at the data on the track, even with his conservative and low-key personality, he said something at this time.

Because Zhang Yifei broke the single lap record of the Silverstone Primary Equity Equity when he was testing the fifth lap. This speed can no longer be described as amazing. If it is seen by outsiders, he would probably not believe it even if he saw it with his own eyes.

"Um."

Kossel nodded with satisfaction at this time. Even with his high standards, Zhang Yifei's control on the track at this moment was not too picky. It was just some curves that needed to be faster and more extreme.

But the fifth lap test run is just now. Based on the current record of 1 minute 42 seconds 997 in the primary formula of the Silverstone Track, Zhang Yifei can run at least thirty laps. As the number of laps in the future increases and he is more familiar with the track, the fastest lap speed will be improved once.

According to Cosell's prediction, Zhang Yifei's fastest lap should be 0.3 seconds faster than the current track record.

Not to mention that Zhang Yifei's opponent is a group of "running away" losers, even if the imposing seed players such as Masa and Kubica will have an ultimate showdown in the track, it will be difficult for them to run past Zhang Yifei now.

It can be said that Cosell looked at it from his own perspective that Zhang Yifei had surpassed the current level of his opponent and truly achieved the leading position of absolute strength.

"Teacher, it seems that Yi Feijun still listened to your advice, and both his familiarity with the track and his own requirements have been significantly improved."

At this time, Yamamoto Ukyo also praised Cosel, but there was absolutely no intention of flattering him.

Because Zhang Yifei's strength improvement since Kossel joined the team is obvious to all. It can be said that without Kossel's help from the F1 team experience, Zhang Yifei would not have achieved what he has today!

So Yamamoto Ukyo's words are not because Kossel is his mentor, but because he sincerely believes that Kossel's many harsh warnings have helped Zhang Yifei get a great improvement.

"The main thing is this kid who works hard on his own."

Cosel replied lightly, he had no thoughts of complacency.

Because Cosell felt that he had just done what a racing engineer should do, and the driver's ability to improve so quickly was mainly based on his own talent and hard work, which is irrefutable.

At least in terms of hard work, Cosel saw it. Take Silverstone for example. After the mistakes in track data were pointed out before, Zhang Yifei immediately made corrections and demanded himself to a higher standard.

Take Zhang Yifei's room as an example. It is covered with the corner tangents, overtaking routes, defensive routes, etc. of each corner of the Silverstone track, and there are countless gears, speed notes, and even the gravity acceleration brought by the curve. Zhang Yifei has done the calculations.

To be honest, when I first saw this scene, even Cosell was shocked. Because these data points have fully met the requirements of the F1 race level, but Zhang Yifei is still just a Formula Elementary driver.

Although Kossel sternly warned Zhang Yifei that since he had signed an F1 driver contract, he must demand himself according to the F1 driver's standards.

But many things are said to be true, it is still a very difficult thing to ask a Formula Elementary Driver to use the F1 standard to demand himself.

Kossel's original intention was just to let Zhang Yifei raise his positioning. At least in the future, he would no longer have the mentality of a new rookie.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yifei not only said it, but did it. Within his limited ability, he achieved the ultimate analysis of the Silverstone Track.

It is precisely because of Zhang Yifei's own efforts that he has today's trial run on the track, which is as smooth as flowing.

"Yifeijun is working very hard, this is the result he deserves."

Yamamoto Ukyo agreed. He watched Zhang Yifei walk out of the Toyota Youth Training Camp, and naturally understood how much he had paid behind this.

You should know that after the expansion of Toyota Youth Training Camp, there are almost 20 of the best kart drivers in Asia. However, those drivers, even the hardest one, probably reach half of Zhang Yifei's training intensity.

Think about it, if Zhang Yifei's talent is not amazingly bad, it would be extremely normal to get rid of other kart students far away.

The meaning of these four words is rewarded by God. As the Japanese Ukyo Yamamoto, it is definitely the best interpretation of Zhang Yifei.

Of course, Zhang Yifei's talent was also revealed, and he was not inferior to any top European driver.

The test run on the track is still continuing, Zhang Yifei is driving faster and faster, and at the same time he is becoming more and more stable. He is not as good as the test run of the Manicur track at the last stop, and various thrilling situations occur.

This is not only an improvement in Zhang Yifei's strength, but also an improvement in his mentality. Zhang Yifei is no longer challenging the track, but conquering the track.

The lap speed is also constantly refreshing, and the goal of 0.3 seconds of the Cosell fast track is getting closer and closer.

Looking at Zhang Yifei on the track, another driver's name appeared in Kossel's mind, Kimi Raikkonen.

Whether Zhang Yifei is willing to compare or not, if he stands on the F1 track in the future, he will inevitably be compared with Kimi Raikkonen.

Kimi Raikkonen is also an amazingly talented player, and was spotted by Sauber in the UK's Formula Renault. Although the British Renault Championship is considered the highest-level level in the Renault National Series.

But in fact, if you think about it carefully, it is still a little worse than the current level of Renault 2000 European Cup.

Therefore, being able to stand out from such a low-level event in the championship and enter the F1 team requires amazing potential in addition to its own strength.

Kimi also proved himself in this regard. He entered the first six of the first game on the F1 track and got points. He was even sleeping in the first 20 minutes of the game.

Of course, in Kimi's own words, this is that sleeping more can keep him awake before the qualifying and the main game.

But facing the first F1 event in his life, he can still fall asleep twenty minutes before the start of the game, which undoubtedly represents Kimi's terrifying psychological quality.

Now Cosel was thinking in his mind that Zhang Yifei's current performance has indeed surpassed the level of Formula Elementary Drivers. So can he achieve Kimi's psychological quality and talent, and enter the F1 field, and get points and make awesome hits?
