"There is almost a week left before the main race, and the renovation project has begun. By the night before the practice race, these streets will be closed, and all parking spaces on the roadside will be removed to make room for the Grand Prix."

Xie Tiancheng introduced the East Ocean Raceway to Zhang Yifei, because when he was racing in Hong Kong Island before, he actually came to Ao Island to run across the East Ocean Raceway more than once.

Of course, he was all running as an underground driver in the Midnight Party, not as professional racing as this time.

"You know quite well."

"Just run a few times."

After Xie Tiancheng finished speaking, he drove the car again and drove along the 6.2-kilometer East Ocean Track.

At this time, Zhang Yifei also put away his previous relaxed and fun mentality and began to remember the characteristics of the East Ocean Track in his mind.

It is impossible to remember every point in a 6.2-kilometer street, and it will also confuse your memory. Zhang Yifei’s main goal this time is to remember the famous “black spots of car crashes” on the East Ocean Track.

For example, the Lisboa Bend, which has the highest accident rate, the Wenhua Oriental Bend that you have to face at the beginning, and the hairpin bend that many drivers consider to be the most difficult, etc.

Unlike the European track names, the Odori Island East Ocean Track is very distinctive, and the curves are basically named after hotels and casinos.

It's like the name "Lisboa", probably many people have heard of it.

Moreover, because the gambling industry is legal, casinos can directly name events or sponsor teams. So Zhang Yifei occasionally finds promotional slogans from casinos on both sides of the track, which makes him feel very strange. It has a feeling that watching online videos in later generations, and a sentence always comes out: The first online casino in Australia is online...

Of course, Zhang Yifei is here to race cars this time, not to pay attention to casino advertisements. He began to compare more of the East Ocean track, which is different from the tracks he has run in the past.

To be precise, the East Ocean Track is like a combination of mountain roads and streets. The reason why Dongyang Ocean is not called a mountain road is because it is relatively remote from the mountain roads in the mainland and Japan, and it is all in the downtown area.

If you have to find a type of situation, Zhang Yifei feels like some streets in Chongqing, with only two lanes in both directions and uneven heights. More importantly, there are many residential areas and pedestrians on both sides of the road, which are not as deserted as ordinary mountain roads.

However, once you enter the Friendship Road, your eyes suddenly become clear and you will come to the long straight area of ​​the Grand Prix. At the same time, the main stand is also set up in this area, so that the audience can better see the racing car and the contestants.

After passing this long straight track, you will immediately enter Dongwangyang Road, which will be an uphill road. The more famous bend is the Lingnan bend, which is also a small angle bend with extremely low speed.

And Zhang Yifei was still next to this curve and saw a school called "Lingnan Middle School".

This is a bit different from the streets where Zhang Yifei ran before. Whether in Yangcheng or Hong Kong Island, the streets are semi-enclosed or fully enclosed expressways.

First, you can only have the pleasure of speed on the expressway, otherwise it will be like traffic jams in the city to and from work, and you must brake before you even press the accelerator. This can still be called street racing?

The second point is naturally to close the road, which can minimize the impact of pedestrians or fork lanes and reduce the risk of the event.

There are also high-density crowd areas like Dongwangyang Track, like the school next to it. Even with Zhang Yifei's current strength and driving skills, he cannot guarantee that he can achieve the ultimate speed and there will be no accidents.

So what Cosell said on the ferry is right. Each track has its own characteristics. At least on the East Ocean Track, it is difficult for Zhang Yifei to test the run at the extreme speed, and the accidents and risk factors are too great.

6.2 kilometers, even though Xie Tiancheng was not fast, he finished the lap quickly.

At this time, he looked at Zhang Yifei and asked, "How is it, what do you want to say about the Dongwangyang Track?"

"The terrain is very complex, and it is in a densely populated street, which is equivalent to increasing the difficulty. It is called the most dangerous track in Asia, and it is not unreasonable."

Zhang Yifei became serious at this time. After looking around, he put away his contempt and confident attitude.

It is indeed different from ordinary mountain roads and street racing. The terrain of the East Ocean Track is more complex and it is also a challenge for me.

"Yes, this is equivalent to a combination of mountain roads and streets, and similar ones in the world are Monaco tracks."

After saying that, Xie Tiancheng parked the Honda NSS on the side of the road and asked Zhang Yifei: "Are you interested in running a lap?"

Actually, there is no need to say Xie Tiancheng, Zhang Yifei's hands were itchy when he was sitting in the car.

When I lived in Hong Kong, I could still bring my Mitsubishi Evo to Hong Kong Island. However, as I went to Japan, the Mitsubishi Evo was naturally driven back to the Guangzhou-Shenzhen car repair shop, and I usually asked the old man to take care of it.

In addition, he won't be able to stay for a long time this time, so Zhang Yifei was too lazy to transport the Mitsubishi Evo, which led to him not having a car on hand and he traveled in a taxi.

It's really not very convenient to have no car, especially when facing the need to be familiar with the track. When Zhang Yifei was sitting in the car just now, he was planning to drive Uncle Lu's Ford Mustang Cobra over for the time being, after all, it was a top-class American performance car.

"Of course I'm interested. I'm completely unfamiliar with the East Ocean Track now, so I've been familiar with it in these few days."

Zhang Yifei said as he opened the car door and got out of the car, preparing to exchange seats with Xie Tiancheng.

"You don't have track data?"

When Xie Tiancheng heard Zhang Yifei say this, he asked unexpectedly.

Because as long as you are a professional team with some strength, there will be configurations such as strategic groups or tactical groups, and there will also be detailed track floor plan data, so that drivers can better understand and understand the characteristics of the track.

This is also the embodiment of the increasing standardization of careers. Zhang Yifei is already an F1 driver. You should know that the F1 teams have strong racing teams, so how can they not even have the most basic track data?

"No."

"It's impossible, you're an F1 driver at least."

"My situation is quite special, it's really not."

Zhang Yifei couldn't explain it clearly, and he was a formal driver of the Prost team after all. It was not a clever thing to privately expose the team's current operating conditions to the outside world.

And then again, Prost's financial situation is unknown to others except for the fleet management, and has not been disclosed.

The reason why Zhang Yifei can know is that he is from the perspective of God in history, otherwise he shouldn't have known these things.

Seeing that Zhang Yifei was already standing outside the driving door, Xie Tiancheng had to untie his seat belt, exchange positions with Zhang Yifei, and bypass the front of the car and sit on the passenger seat.

"If you really don't have track data, I can give you a copy, it's just the data of RV GT. I don't know if it can be applied to F3."

Although Xie Tiancheng's current arta fleet is a new fleet created by Akuri Suzuki, Honda is actually standing behind it.

Later, Honda even gave Akuri Suzuki greater support and created Japan's first local F1 team, namely the Super Akuri Team.

So Xie Tiancheng has detailed team data about the Dongwangyang Track. However, due to the different competitions, there is probably a big gap in real use, which depends on Zhang Yifei's adaptability.

"If it is not the core secret of your team, you can give me one."

Zhang Yifei has been a field, pulling force and formula for two lifetimes, so he is very familiar with the differences between different types of racing cars.

For RV data like this, the difference between other differences is not the same as the speed alone. This means that almost all the routes of the curve will not be different.

To give the simplest example, many people may have had such a curiosity in their minds, that is, the fastest supercar. If it is placed on the track and compete with F1, who will win or lose?

The answer is very clear, that is, the supercar will be crushed by the F1 racing car.

Take the Silverstone track that Zhang Yifei had run before for example. One of the top supercar representatives in later generations, Lamborghini's Batman, had the fastest lap speed that he had run on the Silverstone track was 2 minutes 08 seconds 1.

If this car is replaced by Bugatti Veyron, McLaren, or something, it will be a gap of one or two seconds at most, which is basically the fastest speed in the supercar industry.

But you should know that the slowest lap result in the Silverstone track in the same time was run by Ricciardo of Red Bull Racing, which took 1 minute 42 seconds 966.

You should know that this is the slowest result, which is nearly thirty seconds faster than the supercar. If it were the fastest record of Silverstone, the 1 minute 30 seconds 874 lap record created by Alonso, it would have thrown the fastest lap speed of the supercar by nearly 40 seconds!

Many people may have thought before that, compared with F1, supercars should be slower. But they definitely don’t know that they can be so exaggerated!

What does it mean to be thrown for 40 seconds in a lap? This is not a question of whether you can see the taillights of the car. Even a car doesn’t know where to go. After two or three laps, it’s estimated that the F1 can come back from a lap and see the taillights of the supercar.

It’s like two kilometer long-distance runners are preparing to compete in the same field, and one of them said to the other: “Brother, you run a few hundred meters first and warm me up, otherwise this game will be too boring.”

Comparing F1 may be a bit bullying Supercar. After all, F1 may be said to be the jewel of the automobile industry, which is just like the crown of the industry is an aviation engine, and the gap between the two sides is too big.

Take the Renault Formula Zhang Yifei ran for example. The single lap on the Silverstone track can also break the 10-second gap in the supercar, and it is the kind that you don’t expect to see the taillights of the car.

Xie Tiancheng's GT racing data is basically the performance of supercars. If it is a high-group GT racing car, it is faster than a supercar.
