On both sides of the maintenance passage parking space, the technician team of Prost team has been prepared for simulation tire replacement training and has begun to move towards their own workstations.

Although the Prost team is not considered a first-class F team in the F, and its best results are hovering in the middle and lower reaches, the team has a first-class maintenance team.

After all, Prost team inherits the legacy of the French veteran team Ligier, with more than 20 years of F-racing experience, and cannot be viewed completely from the perspective of an emerging team.

The advantages of acquisition and inheritance are reflected. If the Prost team is a completely new team, they will have almost no chance to play in the F-plane based on their financial situation and technical reserve capabilities.

This is why Toyota had already formed a youth training team and prepared for a complete echelon plan. But in the end, it did not take this path from scratch, but acquired the Arrow Team.

It is because the advantages brought by the acquisition are too great. As long as the acquisition target is not burdened with huge debts, it is equivalent to overtaking the most difficult "starting from scratch" stage, becoming competitive in the first year, participating in the Fi event, and avoiding many detours.

This time, unlike the super "shrinkable" version of Zhang Yifei's F3 in Aodao before, the tire replacement was changed. At this moment, more than 20 maintenance technicians are already on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of

It is not a formal competition now, and it is just right for them to practice to become familiar with the cooperation with the team.

"Brother Zhi, I'm a little nervous."

Ah Hu said in a low voice, he didn't know how many times he had changed the car tires, but it was the first time for him to simulate a tread change of the station.

The team requires that the slowest time cannot exceed 4 seconds, and the tire replacement must be completed, otherwise it will be judged as unqualified.

You should know that although Prost promised to let Ah Hu and Chen Zhi join the team, it does not mean that they can "make up the numbers" in the F technician team. If their skills and strength do not meet the competition requirements, even if they have a relationship with Zhang Yifei, they will be eliminated.

Of course, the criteria for judging whether it is qualified is not just about this entry training, but about the performance of the entire winter training period of F. However, even so, Ah Hu was still a little nervous. He didn't want to implicate Zhang Yifei, nor did he want to lose the face of a Chinese maintenance technician!

"Don't worry, just like usual training, don't be nervous."

Chen Zhi comforted him that for a while, they have been screwing screws and changing tires at the repair station almost every day.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if Ah Hu and Chen Zhi closed their eyes, they could complete the tire change.

But the problem is that training is about training, and whether the training effect can be achieved in actual combat is an unknown number.

However, Chen Zhi is confident that as long as he can maintain calmness and performance, the skills and speed of the two of them will not be slower than ordinary maintenance technicians!

Hearing Chen Zhi's words, Ah Hu nodded, his nervousness was slightly relieved, but his palms were still covered in sweat.

This time, Ah Hu and Chen Zhi divided the task to change the left front tire. In addition to them, there is also a veteran team technician who controls the most difficult pneumatic wrench.

The reason why F can change tires in just a few seconds when entering the station is because the program and division of labor are divided into extremely detailed. Just changing one tire, three technicians were arranged to cooperate.

One of them is responsible for the pneumatic wrench, loosening and screwing of the pneumatic wrench technician, the second person is responsible for removing the old tire, and the third person holds the new tire in his hand and replaces it with it.

This process is divided into three steps, which seems extremely simple, but considering the amazing speed of two or three seconds, you can feel the shock brought by the ultimate cooperation of that team.

If it were an ordinary person or even an ordinary car mechanic, not to mention changing the tire in two or three seconds, even the first screw might not be unscrewed.

The sound of the engine's violent engine began to come from afar. After hearing this, the technician team began to bow down slightly, maintain the best movement posture, and wait for Zhang Yifei to enter the station.

On the other hand, Zhang Yifei also drove the car into the maintenance channel, and then he braked with one step, reducing the speed to 0k/h very accurately. The speedometer number only jumped very slightly, and the speed error did not exceed kilometers.

These can only be regarded as basic operations for F drivers. If an F driver is not even able to control the speed of the car accurately, it will make people laugh out loud if they say it.

The real difficulty of changing tires when entering the station is not to reduce the speed, but to focus on how to stop perfectly.

Zhang Yifei saw the chief technician Charlie in his hand holding a sign similar to a lollipop with the words brakes written on it.

It is precisely because the signs look like lollipops, the technician holding the signs is also called the "lollipop man". He is usually the number one person in the technician team, responsible for controlling the overall situation and coordination, and is also the only maintenance technician who can communicate directly with the drivers through radio.

Therefore, in general, this position is held by the chief technician, so that you can understand the racing status more directly and communicate with the driver.

Charlie put the sign slightly horizontally to inform the drivers where they should park accurately. You should know that although the F-racing car is open to the cockpit, it does not mean that you will have a good vision when you sit in the car.

Basically, when a driver drives a F car, he has already left the word "sitting", and it is no problem to describe it as "lying". Therefore, the focus of the F driver's eyes is always in the distance, and the surroundings of the racing car can be called a blind spot in the field of vision, so signs are needed to assist the parking position.

Zhang Yifei drove the car into the parking space, then braked and parked accurately, with the sign in front of his helmet.

If you stand from the perspective of the bystander at this time, you can see that Zhang Yifei's racing car is impartial and parked in the center of the parking space very accurately. This is a very good performance for a new driver who entered the station for the first time to train, and it also means that Zhang Yifei has solid basic skills.

Charlie is the chief technician who returned to the headquarters early. During this period, he has been contacting Zhang Yifei on the track and has long since let go of his prejudice against Zhang Yifei's new drivers.

On the contrary, he now admires Zhang Yifei's efforts and his unexpected solid basic skills. As expected, drivers who can create miracles and complete the "three-game jump" cannot be mediocre.

As soon as the car stopped, all technicians were as precise as the clock, and began to change tires with clear division of labor, simple mechanical inspection and repair, reflector wipe and helmet wipe, etc.

This is just the tire change procedure during the entry process. Zhang Yifei will conduct more complicated training for the entry site. However, because compared with the tire change, the fueling is more dangerous, so before the first step is fully cooperated and proficient, the fueling training will be placed behind.

“Is there any problem with racing?”

Charlie asked Zhang Yifei through the fleet voice system that the entry time was the only time when the chief technician had the right to call, and he also enjoyed the highest priority to call.

"no problem."

Zhang Yifei replied briefly.

Almost as soon as Zhang Yifei finished speaking, the four tire replacement steps were completed, and the front and rear jack technicians left simultaneously.

Seeing this scene, Charlie turned the sign in his hand, and changed from the word "stop" on the front to the "shift" on the back.

This word tells Zhang Yifei to hang the car from neutral to first gear and prepare to start. When Charlie confirms that all the work has been completed and there is no interference in the outbound route, he will lift the slightly horizontal sign. At this time, the car can leave the repair station and drive back to the track to continue the battle.

So when Zhang Yifei saw the sign in front of his helmet lifting up, he kicked the accelerator directly, the car started to speed up and rushed out of the repair station, continued to run on the track, waiting for the second round of entry training.

During the entire entry process, it can be said that there is no unnecessary movement. All maintenance technicians cooperate like a whole. This is why the team cooperation in the F event is regarded as a model of teamwork.

It is because of this ultimate division of labor that is not bad for dozens of people in milliseconds that has surpassed the event itself and brought people a sense of teamwork!

Seeing Zhang Yifei's racing car leaving the station smoothly, the team technician team cheered, although this was a very regular operation in their careers for them.

But today is not only a new driver, but also two new technicians in the team. They can successfully complete the entry training without any mistakes or omissions, which is naturally worthy of happiness.

However, Prost and Cosell in the repair station did not cheer for this little success.

"Prost, what is the average time for your team to change tires and enter the station?"

"3.sec."

Prost replied briefly.

3.Second? This average speed surprised Cosell, because the average tire change time for giant teams like McLaren, is 3.Second, is not far from the Prost team.

Of course, this is the old calendar almost ten years ago. The tire change time is constantly improving, from minutes or 0 seconds in the 1950s to about 3 seconds in the 1990s. Perhaps in another ten or twenty years, the fastest tire change time will enter the range of 2 seconds.

In fact, this is indeed the case. The fastest punt record held by the Red Bull team in later generations was 923 seconds, and the 2-second realm that had been broken through is really not an exaggeration to describe it in blinking skills.

"It took 3.9 seconds to enter the station. The brake stop was very accurate, but the response to departure from the station was slow. In addition, the cooperation of the technician team did not reach the extreme. A little slower may be a problem with Ah Hu and Chen Zhi, but it was 0.2 seconds slower, so it should be that there were problems with the entire technician team."

Kossel pointed out the key points of the practice just now. It can be said that the slower one can be said to be because the newcomers join, which leads to the team's unskilled cooperation.
Chapter completed!
