After saying goodbye to Guo Henian, Zhang Yifei and Lu Ningping walked out of the mansion on the top of the mountain.

Looking at the hesitant expression on Zhang Yifei's face, Lu Ningping said at this time: "Yifei, if you think it is inappropriate, we can change the sponsorship partner without being too embarrassed."

Hearing this, Zhang Yifei smiled and replied: "I didn't make any embarrassment. In fact, the conditions offered by Mr. Guo are already very good. I am just considering some time arrangements."

"Then are you inclined to agree?"

"Um."

Zhang Yifei nodded. The two million team sponsorship and five hundred thousand individual event sponsorship, this money has solved the urgent problem for Zhang Yifei at present, so he naturally tends to agree.

However, the O Island F3 event was completely beyond his previous plan, and he did not understand the O Island Grand Prix in this world.

So you need to go back and discuss with Junko Takeda and Kossel, and confirm that there is no conflict with your F1 event plan, then you can give Guo Henian a positive answer.

"Uncle Lu, then I will go to the hotel first and discuss sponsorship with the team members, and I won't go back with you."

Lu Ningping also knew that the main business was important, so he nodded and replied: "Okay, call me if you have any questions."

"I will."

Zhang Yifei came to the side of the road, stopped a taxi from the mountaintop park, and went to the hotel where he was staying.

On the way, Zhang Yifei had already called Junko Takeda and Kossel, so they were both waiting for Zhang Yifei to arrive in the hall.

Seeing Zhang Yifei walking into the hotel gate, Junko Takeda first greeted him and asked, "Ifeijun, how is the sponsorship happening?"

"It was basically agreed, but the other party attached a condition."

“What conditions?”

“Let me run the Macau Grand Prix.”

“Ao Island F3 event?”

Cosell asked in a puzzled tone, asking the F1 driver to run an F3 event, the sponsorship conditions were a little strange.

"That's right, it's the O Island F3 event. Because for current Chinese sponsors, the F1 event's influence may not be as powerful as the Grand Prix in O Island."

"There are many factors that cause this situation, and even include some special historical reasons. I won't talk about these in detail. Anyway, you just need to know that the additional conditions for sponsors are this."

"But I didn't agree directly. I'm calling you here now, just to discuss whether running a Grand Prix race on O's Island will affect the winter training of F1."

After listening to Zhang Yifei's description, Junko Takeda said directly, "Whether it has any impact, I need to see the schedule of Oshima F3, I need some time to check it."

"Well, you'll go find Ukyo later and sort out the detailed information about the Odao F3 event."

After saying this, Zhang Yifei looked at Kossel. The German old man was the focus of Zhang Yifei's consultation!

"Cosell, do you think I should agree to go to the Grand Prix?"

"My opinion is to agree."

Kossel did not say anything about zero model and mud's reply, but gave a positive opinion.

"Why?"

"First point, the time for the Odao F3 event is usually around November. Unless it happens to hit the latest time, it will not conflict with your F1 winter training time."

"The second point is the F3 event in the Island of O, which can be said to be the most popular F3 event in the world and is known as the cradle of racing new stars. Many famous drivers have come to the Island of O, and even Senna and Schumacher have won the F3 championship in the Island of O."

"If you can also win the O Island F3 championship, this will be the best proof of your strength and can reduce a lot of doubts about you becoming an F1 driver."

"Of course, the doubts of ordinary people are actually irrelevant. I believe that with your psychological quality, you won't be unable to withstand those doubts. The more important significance of the Odao F3 championship is to dispel some doubts from Fia!"

Kossel said the point at this time, that is, although Zhang Yifei is an F1 driver, he has not obtained a super driver's license!

The application standard for super driver's license in this era is to get at least a championship in F3, Le Mans LMP1, or Indy Racing in order to be qualified to apply for a super driver's license from the FIA.

And this is just an application qualification. In fact, if you want to get a super driver's license without any pressure, it is not enough to rely on an F3 level champion alone. It is best to get on the podium in the F3000 level event.

"Do you think Fia might make things difficult for me on the issuance of super driver's license?"

To be honest, Zhang Yifei hasn't thought about these issues during this period, because the application for the super driver's license was handled by the Prost fleet, and it's useless for Zhang Yifei to worry about it.

So he has never included the super driver's license in his own consideration. Now that he heard Cosell say that he did win an F3 event championship, it will reduce the resistance he has to apply for a super driver's license.

"It's not that I think, but they will definitely do this. Do you think you have Kimi's popularity in Europe? Or do you think the shady history of Prost and the French President of Fia would not affect the issuance of your super driver's license?"

These two rhetorical questions from Cosel made Zhang Yifei speechless.

In the history of f1, there was no super driver's license but he became a f1 driver. Before, only Kimi Raikkonen was the second one.

Kimi was signed by Sauber last year because of his beautiful record in Formula Elementary and his handsome appearance, he instantly became a phenomenal driver. Not only in Europe, but also in the world, there are many fans of him.

But even so, Kimi had many difficulties in applying for a F1 super driver's license. It took him half a year to go through the process. It was not until the eve of the first F1 game that Kimi got his own super driver's license.

Otherwise, there will be an embarrassing scene where the F1 driver is unable to play because he does not have a driver's license.

With a top popularity like Kimi and the identity of a European driver, it is so difficult to issue a super driver's license in a special wholesale manner, let alone Zhang Yifei.

In addition, in terms of the team, Sauber's help is a plus for Kimi. Because Prost had a black history of the Seine champions, he now had a very strict review of Prost's team.

Therefore, the help of Prost team may be for Zhang Yifei to reduce points, which will increase the difficulty of his special approval of a super driver's license.

Kossel's experience in F1 is far superior to Zhang Yifei, so he thought it longer-term, believing that participating in the Odao F3 event will far outweigh the disadvantages for Zhang Yifei.

"It seems that I have to participate in this F3 event for the super driver's license."

Zhang Yifei made a decision in his heart that as long as Junko Takeda found out about the Grand Prix in the O Island and did not conflict with his F1 winter training plan, he would give Mr. Guo an accurate reply.

"In theory, this is true, but even if you participate, you may not be able to get a super driver's license."

"What's the meaning?"

"Because Odao F3 is a single cup match, it is one level lower than the normal F3 series championship. So even if you win the championship, you still cannot get the entry-level qualification to apply for, which is just to reduce the difficulty of special approval."

Damn! Zhang Yifei couldn't help but greet him in his heart. Unexpectedly, he became an F1 driver, but he could still get stuck in the super driver's license.

I wonder if Kimi Raikkonen last year also had the same worries as himself?

During dinner, the team members were all sitting in the restaurant, and Yukyo Yamamoto held a copy of the information collected in the afternoon.

"This year's Sanji Formula sanji Formula Competition Fia Intercontinental Cup will be held on November 2nd, and it is less than half a month away. It will conflict with the winter training time of F1."

"But the Odori F3 race is very different from the Formula Renault. It is a street track. The road conditions of the entire track are very complicated, and there are obstacles such as up and down slopes, lamp posts, cement walls, etc., which tests the driver's adaptability and control ability."

"These characteristics are very similar to the Monaco track in F1, so the East Ocean Track is also called the Monaco track in the East."

In fact, Zhang Yifei knew the characteristics of the east-west track mentioned by Ukyo Yamamoto. After all, this is the most famous street track in China. As a professional driver in his previous life, he could not have understood it at all.

"In addition to these basic information, the driver information and detailed track curve data of the racetrack will take some time to query and sort out, and I'm sorry."

When he said this, a hint of shame appeared on Yamamoto Ukyo's face. As a data analyst, he only found these basic data in two hours in the afternoon, and he felt that he was very unqualified.

However, Zhang Yifei waved his hand and signaled that it was okay. Because he knew that as Yamamoto Ukyo and Junko Takeda withdrew from Toyota, there was no way to get the support of Toyota in terms of data.

Moreover, the Internet is not developed in this era, and many things will not be announced online in advance. If you want to get these information, you also need to send an email to Fia and the Organizing Committee of the O Island Tournament.

Email is relatively much less efficient. Replying within a few working days is extremely normal, and it is even possible to not reply.

In two hours, without the support of the powerful car company racing business department, I really couldn't do much with my personal strength.

"Since there is no conflict in time, then Ukyo, please help me sign up for the Odao F3 event."

"OK."

"By the way, in the next few days, I will go back to the mainland. Please ask you about the Oda F3 event."

"Don't worry, Yifeijun, I will organize all the track information."

Yamamoto Ukyo nodded and replied, "Zhang Yifei was going back to the mainland, but it had already been confirmed, so they were not surprised."

After confirming that I participated in the O Island F3 event, the rest disappeared insignificantly, and the atmosphere became relaxed. Everyone was talking about some new things about Hong Kong Island.

After dinner, Zhang Yifei returned to the room to rest. He was really tired after a long flight and a day of running.
