After nearly five laps in the test circle, Zhang Yifei drove the car into the repair station, and then the team technician surrounded him and began racing training based on Zhang Yifei's previous track feedback.

Because this is not a race-level entry, it is not pursuing time efficiency, but Cosell and Charlie are discussing and making adjustments.

After the first round of adjustment, Zhang Yifei started the fine adjustment of the second round. He ran about ten laps after two rounds. Zhang Yifei entered the station again. After making the final adjustment, he was ready to start his own timing circle.

Zhang Yifei, who was in the timing circle, no longer had the slow feeling before, and was replaced by a sharp edge. Although he didn't care about the ridicule of the audience outside the field, because he chose to take the path of equations, he had already expected that this would be part of the journey.

But it doesn't mean that he is a driver who likes to be ridiculed. It can even be said that on the contrary, Zhang Yifei likes to shut up the person who mocks him!

After stepping down the accelerator, adjust the gear ratio of the transmission afterwards, paying more attention to the acceleration at low speed rather than the extreme speed at high speed.

This adjustment is also based on the special features of the track, because the traditional long straight section of the Albert Park Circuit is very short and it is completely impossible to run the ultimate speed of the F1 racing car.

On the contrary, various zigzag high-speed curves test drivers' judgment of the brake points and routes. After one step, the accelerator will be quickly accelerated, so the torque is more important than the speed.

The audience did not know the team's strategy, but the obvious speed of the timing circle increased sharply, which made them feel different from the previous test circles. Zhang Yifei began to prepare to challenge the lap speed of the Albert Park Raceway.

"So fast! Zhang Yifei's lap speed is much faster than before!"

"The test circle has been completed. This is Zhang Yifei's real strength. He is our new generation of Chinese car king!"

"Didn't those ghost guys say it's slow? Now open your eyes and take a look at it carefully. How fast can Zhang Yifei run!"

"good! This is the speed of flying!"

On the track, some of Zhang Yifei's supporters began to get excited. They waited until Zhang Yifei was fully adjusted and began to officially challenge the track.

The speed of the car began to soar. As he rushed to the first corner, Zhang Yifei started sprinting with all the throttle, and his speed reached 286kh directly at 6 gear.

This speed has easily surpassed the speed of Renault racing before, and for F1 racing, this is just the state. If the track is long enough, the F1 racing car can break through more than 450kh in some later tests.

You should know that this speed has exceeded most helicopter speeds and is chasing ordinary propellers. If it weren't for various air parts, the F1 racing car would be pressed tightly on the ground with the help of airflow, and a pair of wings would really fly.

But then, Zhang Yifei braked and reduced the speed to 132kh, and then passed through corners 1 and 2 continuously. At this moment, the numbers on the racing sensors showed that the maximum g value that Zhang Yifei was under was 27, which means that Zhang Yifei was under 27 times the weight pressure.

Accurately route through the curve, and after leaving the corner, the floor oil accelerated, and then the paddle on the steering wheel was upshifted wildly. Until the front of Turn No. 3, brake harder, reduce the speed to about 143kh in 3 gear again, maintaining an extreme speed to bend.

This is the characteristic of Albert Park Raceway. There is no long straight that can be fully throttled for more than ten seconds, and replaced by various short straights. Racing requires continuous cycles between acceleration and deceleration, and at the same time, coupled with the high temperatures in Melbourne in summer, it undoubtedly gives the brake system a great test.

Those who have passed the driver's license or have veteran drivers at home should know that it is that long-distance downhill roads cannot be relied on the brakes all the time to slow down, but use the engine to downshift and brake to assist the brake to slow down.

If you go downhill for a particularly long time, such as those who come down from the Sichuan-Tibet Line, you have to stop from time to time to water and cool the brake discs. Because as the brake temperature rises sharply, the braking effect will decrease inversely.

The heavy brake temperature of the f1 brake disc will reach an astonishing high temperature of more than 900 degrees in a short time due to the amazing speed. In this case, it is also a test for the racing brake cooling system.

Therefore, Kossell and others in the repair station focused more on the brake sensor. Once any problems arise, they will remind Zhang Yifei as soon as possible.

Zhang Yifei's attention is all on control at this moment. Although he has never run on the field before, and has not even been to Australia. However, for the first stop of this game, Zhang Yifei has been preparing for the Prost team after entering the Prost team.

Albert Park calls the second track that the racing simulator has been running in the past few months, and no other track can be called the first. With various floor plans and field exploration, it can be said that the entire track has been imprinted in Zhang Yifei's mind.

After more than ten rounds of testing, this impression became more stable, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity began to appear, making Zhang Yifei's lap speed faster and faster, even surpassing several drivers on the track who didn't know whether it was a test or a timing test.

"I have never underestimated Fei, but the performance of this Chinese newcomer has always exceeded my estimated upper limit."

Sir Williams looked at the scene on the track and said to the technical director of the team next to him.

To be honest, he really regretted it at this moment. Should he be more decisive and signed Zhang Yifei with a formal driver's contract instead of choosing Colombian superstar Juan Montoya?

However, this idea was instantly denied by Sir Williams, because Montoya had proved himself with the youngest champion of the Carter Championship and the Indy 500 title.

At the same time, as a superstar driver in Colombia, he has tens of millions of loyal supporters of Colombia and has also brought huge sponsorships from Colombia Telecom. These things are something that Zhang Yifei cannot give at present.

After all, compared to Montoya, who is already a veteran in Indy Racing, Zhang Yifei's reputation is still much worse, and more importantly, he does not have an important achievement to establish his own position.

"The Chinese newcomer is really strong, and his lap speed is faster than before the previous winter test."

The technical director of Williams team replied, "It's different from Sir Williams's feelings, and he believes in the data on the display screen more."

Just this lap, Zhang Yifei ran to a time of 1 minute 26 seconds 332.

You should know that the 5303-kilometer Albert Park track has the fastest track record at 1 minute 24 seconds 528, which was created by two-time driver champion Mika Hakkinen in 1999.

Even with the development of technology in later generations, the fastest lap speed was only increased to 1 minute 23 seconds 529, which was created by Vettel of Red Bull Racing.

So Zhang Yifei, as a newcomer, ran a lap of about one second from the track record in the first round of test lap times, which can be described as amazing.

Not only Sir Williams, but also the management of other teams' maintenance stations, after seeing the lap watch sent by the event command center, the watch on his face was also full of shock.

"**! How could a Chinese boy run so fast in the first round of practice competition? There are two rounds of adjustments in the future. Can he still break the track record?"

The person who said this was the president of Minardi team. He now knew the grudge between his son Madu and Zhang Yifei.

But not only did he not think that Madu was at fault, but instead blamed Zhang Yifei for all the reasons.

It was him who caused Madu's car accident and it was also his victory over Bear Dragon at the winter test field, which brought humiliation to Minardi's team.

So the lap that Zhang Yifei ran out now made Minardi feel very unhappy. He didn't want to see a Chinese riding onto the head of Minardi's team!

"Has the Prost team developed a Mars rover? Otherwise, the flying results would be a bit too exaggerated. In theory, after the three-wheel test, his lap speed can be increased by about 05 seconds. This lap speed is likely to be among the top six of the drivers' rankings."

"If he can maintain this state in the main competition, his debut will reach Kimi Raikkonen's level last year and directly get the first stop points. Could it be that he is not only trying to replicate the miracle of triple jumps, but also not even missing the first stop points?"

This passage comes from the manager of Toyota Motorsports.

You should know that compared with other teams, Toyota has a better understanding of Zhang Yifei's "growth" process. After all, Zhang Yifei's Formula Racing started at the Toyota Youth Training Base.

Now, in the Toyota team archive, there are still many training data from Zhang Yifei when he was in the youth training base. At that time, he had already shown the qualities of a talented driver, but it was far less exaggerated than today.

If this lap has nothing to do with the Prost team Mars rover, but the low-energy racing car of last year, it can only be described as horror. Can China really have world-class F1 drivers?

No one knows the answer at the moment, but Zhang Yifei's lap speed on the track is real.

With the end of the first round of practice, when all the drivers' fastest time circle came out, Zhang Yifei's name suddenly appeared in the fifth position!

His first round of practice competition timing lane ranking was only behind Schumacher, Barrichello, Kurthard and Villeneuve!

Beyond veterans such as Verstappen, Alessi, Eddie Erwin, etc. Even last year's super newcomer Kimi was once again behind Zhang Yifei by 0102 seconds.

If there is any chance of leading in the winter test, then the leading in the practice competition is enough to prove that Zhang Yifei has a certain strength and has even kept up with the pace of those top drivers who have been famous for a long time.
Chapter completed!
