"Mr. Zhang Yifei, as the first Chinese driver to win the Grand Prix F3 pole title, do you have confidence in winning the championship this time?"

"I have absolutely confidence in keeping this championship in China!"

When Zhang Yifei faced the reporter's question, he replied firmly, no matter how strong the opponent is, this champion must be won.

Because I only have this opportunity to participate in the Grand Prix, if I don’t get it, there will be no Chinese drivers who will win this championship title in the next twenty years.

Think about the Formula Events in which my country has some brand names, the podium is full of foreigners and Chinese drivers can't even be watched. What does it feel like?

"Fei, I am a British BBC reporter in Hong Kong. Yesterday we interviewed two Japanese F3 champions. They believe that the lap speed of the qualifying race is not their limit. They can easily surpass your fastest lap in the main race. What do you want to respond to this statement?"

"Do they really say that?"

Zhang Yifei did not answer directly, but asked back, after all, Britain has the title of a messenger in Europe, and BBC is not a good man. He doesn't want to be used as a gun by the other party.

“yes.”

The bbc reporter gave a positive reply directly.

He is a bit arrogant. Zhang Yifei has been in contact with Yamamoto Ukyo for a long time and has almost formed an inherent impression of the Japanese, that is, he is more conservative and low-key.

But thinking about it, if you can become a champion-level Formula driver, you can basically not find two low-key people who admit defeat, and they all have a kind of fighting spirit and bloodiness in their bones.

Sato Takuma and Iidemi Yuji are called "torpedo" in the f1 yard.

The so-called torpedo is that the driving style is very wild, and in a sense it can be said to be good! In the process of catching up with the car in front, I don’t know whether it is better than it or not. Anyway, I will kick the floor oil first and then talk about it.

I really can't overtake, and I don't have the technology to change lanes and slow down, so I just aimed at the car in front and hit it. This kind of driver is called "torpedo".

The most famous "torpedo" driver in later generations was the Red Bull driver Koviat from Russia. This guy simply implemented the Russian fighting style on the track and was known for his precise "guidance".

Even in less than a minute of a game, Ferrari driver Vettel rear-ended twice!

You should know that with the strength of the F1 driver, there may be a collision due to a corner grab, but rear-end collisions on the straight are quite rare, let alone two consecutive times, knocking the opponent out of the track.

At that time, Ferrari driver Vettel exposed the team voices, which were all kinds of kind "greetings", and you could feel the aggrievance and anger in his heart.

Since then, Koviat has been awarded the title of "torpedo".

When Sato was a few years old, his "torpedo" style was not inferior to that of Koviat later, and he could be said to have punched Schumacher and kicked Alonso.

The racing style was very radical, and the skills were poor at that time, so the car he drove was bad. He would have a cylinder engine failure at every turn, and then all kinds of mysterious operations occurred. The drivers who ran with him were in trouble.

The most famous one is Schumacher, who had already won the seventh championship at the time, was directly rear-ended by Sato Takuro on the track and retired.

After getting off the car, Schumacher couldn't help it. While still racing on the track, he rushed to Sato Takuro's car to argue with him, and even slapped Sato Takuro's helmet, which made him famous as "suicide" posture.

Not to mention Aiji Inide, Sato thought that if he could still be described as radical and wild, then he would be a pure dish!

After all, other drivers are still controllable "torpedoes". This kid is an irregular time bomb on the track, and no one knows when he will explode.

This Damocles sword above my head, Ai Yuji Inoue became a "public enemy of the track" and was boycotted by the team and drivers. In the end, he ran four F1 games, and even his driver's license was directly revoked.

However, whether it is radical or dish, at least these two Japanese drivers are not afraid on the European track and have sufficient confidence in themselves.

Now the two of them are in the rising stage of their careers, especially Sato Takuma, who is in the limelight for a while and is regarded as an inspirational role model by Asian drivers. Naturally, they have absolute confidence. It is not surprising that BBC reporters say such words.

"My lap speed is not that easy to surpass, because I only used 80% of my strength in the qualifying competition."

Zhang Yifei replied with a faint smile on his face.

As he became more and more famous, Zhang Yifei felt that he had been quite low-key during this period and generally did not show any arrogant image.

But this does not mean that Zhang Yifei has become a "good gentleman". If someone dares to challenge him with his face, you will definitely be welcome!

"Is that true? Then if you use the ultimate 100% strength in the main competition, how fast will it be?"

BBC reporter asked in a slightly frivolous tone, obviously he didn't believe much in Zhang Yifei's words.

"The limit is 100%? Sorry, my limit is 120%!"

Zhang Yifei replied with great arrogance, and there was no sign of any sign of retreat or lack of confidence.

At the same time, Zhang Yifei's words were broadcasted to the big screen of the track through the live videographer, and the audience heard Zhang Yifei's answer.

"It's great! Damn, I haven't seen any Chinese drivers dare to speak like this on the Formula track."

"You can really do whatever you want if you have the strength. I'm afraid Zhang Yifei dares to say that his limit is twelve percent."

"That's right, he has the right to say such things. If he feels dissatisfied, he has the ability to outperform him before saying it!"

The audience in the stands, especially car fans from the mainland, felt a sense of pleasure in breaking through the shackles!

After all, Chinese athletes in this era are generally low-key and dare not speak. When faced with interviews with foreign journalists, or even provocative, they either smile and don’t care about the other party, or pretend to be stupid and don’t understand, and talk a lot to avoid embarrassment.

To put it nicely, these two behaviors are generous, and to put it badly, they are cowardly.

Now that there is a Chinese driver like Zhang Yifei, he can respond so hard, and naturally feels happy!

BBC reporters conducted an interview and investigated and knew that Zhang Yifei was different from ordinary Chinese athletes, so he was not surprised by this answer.

Just when the bbc reporter wanted to continue visiting, the notification whistle sounded on the track and irrelevant personnel began to evacuate. The last F3 event of the Grand Prix race was about to start.

"I answered very confidently. Let me see your strength later."

After seeing the reporter leave, Cosell stood next to Zhang Yifei's racing car and said lightly.

Old Germans are more and more fond of making trouble now!

Zhang Yifei muttered in his heart, Cosel used it to tease him with such obvious words as 120% of his strength.

"They don't use my twelve points of strength, just take 100% first!"

When Cosel heard Zhang Yifei's words, he actually smiled. He understood the meaning of Zhang Yifei's words, which was that he would use his full strength.

The competition engineer is the driver's closest comrades and partners, and even surpasses the teammate level of the team. There is already enough tacit understanding between Cossel and Zhang Yifei.

The second whistle sounded, and only twenty race drivers were left on the maintenance passage.

On the right side of Zhang Yifei is Japanese F3 champion Takuma Sato, which is different from the qualifying round of Zhang Yifei. This time his eyes were fixed on Zhang Yifei.

Because Sato Takuma knew in his heart that qualifying was the ultimate performance, and his experience in F3 events far exceeded that of Zhang Yifei, a "newcomer" driver who only ran over the Renault event.

But even so, I haven't gotten the pole position yet. Neither the fastest lap nor the total lap speed, I have caught up with Zhang Yifei.

Before, Sato Dao was a little dissatisfied when he learned that the Chinese driver completed the "three-level jump" and entered F1.

Yesterday's battle made him understand that the F1 team may not be able to see where the upper limit of a driver is, but they definitely have standards for the lower limit of a driver. Zhang Yifei's strength cannot be viewed from the perspective of a Renault junior driver, which is really a bit strong.

I heard that his Formula career started with Toyota Youth Training Base, and he also ran through that track. What kind of talent does it take to have a talented driver like Zhang Yifei?

However, at this time, there was no chance for Sato to figure out this problem. The indicator light on the track began to light up, and all the drivers were ready to start and strive not to be thrown away during the starting stage.

As a pole player of this class, Zhang Yifei is naturally the target of everyone, not only Sato Takuro's eyes are on him. The one ranked by Zhang Yifei is the local F3 driver of the island, and he also wants to win the Grand Prix championship.

Although he does not have any sense of Chinese identity, he is highly recognized by Odoku, and this is his native hometown.

In the same decades, no local driver in Australia has been able to win the Grand Prix championship.

Gao's stable performance in recent years has been regarded as a strong contender for the championship of this Grand Prix. If Zhang Yifei had not emerged, all opportunities to create history would be placed on Gao, he would be the real home focus of O Island.

Before the qualifying competition, the attention on the East Viagra is comparable to that of Zhang Yifei. However, as Zhang Yifei got the pole position, there was only one player left at home, and the halo was shrouded on Zhang Yifei.

It is impossible for Gao to have no idea about this. This should be his stage, but the protagonist was replaced by someone else.

So He also made up his mind to the point that he had to surpass Zhang Yifei and let the audience understand whose home court was today!

The Italian F3 champion Paul Mudian, who ranked fifth in the Japanese F3 champion Iwai Yuzhi, had an unexpectedly consistent idea. They all regarded surpassing Zhang Yifei as their primary goal.

The five indicator lights went out instantly, and the roar caused by the engine's crazy speed increase resounded throughout the sky.
