406 Not afraid of challenges

"Now there is no choice. Sebredes will play in the second game of practice. We will wait and see what the flight will be like."

Kossel made a decision directly. The old German man had no statement on the surface, and even when Zhang Yifei was sent to the ambulance, he did not lean over and say anything.

But in his heart, he was still worried about Zhang Yifei's current situation. Since he had to start from the repair station no matter what, the results of the event were no longer something to pay attention to. In comparison, the driver's health status was more important.

"Well, let's decide this first. In the afternoon practice match, let Burdes take the lead, and we go to the hospital to see what the flight is going on."

Prost agreed, if it weren't for the boss' identity, this kind of accident was actually serious in Prost and it was not a big deal at all.

On the other side of the hospital, Zhang Yifei was in a much better condition than when he was just lifted into the ambulance.

The main reason was this collision. Although the speed was very fast at that time, exceeding 200km/h. In fact, Zhang Yifei was carrying Xiong Long's car and pushed a distance of dozens of meters on the track.

It was this "promotion" distance that greatly cushioned the impact of the two racing cars, so it did not cause any serious damage to Zhang Yifei. Otherwise, Zhang Yifei's racing car would not be as simple as the front of the car collapse. If it hits a fixed object like a wall, the entire front of the car would probably be lost!

After the period of time he was sent to the hospital, except for the impact on the ankle and the pain was a little vague, Zhang Yifei had already recovered much mentally, and he had already walked on his own for examinations.

After a full body examination, she confirmed that Zhang Yifei was not seriously injured, and Junko Takeda also breathed a sigh of relief. The scene of the impact on the track at that time made her feel a little scared when she remembered it.

"It seems that I'm lucky, and a lucky person will have a heavenly appearance!"

After Zhang Yifei knew the test results, he joked at Junko Takeda.

He has a very good mentality at the moment and has not left any shadows due to track accidents. After all, this kind of track accident was not the first time Zhang Yifei encountered. The rally crash in his previous life was as common as usual.

More importantly, Zhang Yifei came to this world because of a track accident. People who have experienced life and death have to suffer from this level of injury and want to affect their mentality. That is simply nonsense.

Seeing that Zhang Yifei was still in a joking mood, Junko Takeda said in a little scared way: "The situation was quite dangerous at that time, so don't be so radical in the future."

"That's impossible, do you know what the most sensation of racing is?"

“What is it?”

"It's the sense of speed brought by extreme transcendence. Many drivers would rather die for this sense of speed, such as the group of lunatics on TT Isle of Man."

Listening to Zhang Yifei's answer, Junko Takeda opened her mouth and wanted to persuade her something, but in the end she didn't speak.

Although she is not a driver, she has seen too many professional drivers and understands that compared with victory and speed, life has really been placed in the second choice by many drivers.

I would rather be crushed than slow down. This sentence is really not just a saying in the racing world.

In most cases, even if you tell a professional driver about the danger, he will step on his accelerator without hesitation. For a top driver, this is their life value.

At this moment, a large group of people came in outside the ward, Prost, Cosell, Henry, etc. In addition to dealing with the team members who must stay in the afternoon practice competition, basically everyone who could come came, and also expressed the importance that Prost team attached to Zhang Yifei.

"Don't do it so grandly, I'm fine."

Seeing this posture, Zhang Yifei felt exaggerated, just like the feeling that Ah Hu was so sad when he was on a stretcher on the stage before.

It's just a few minor injuries, don't do it like a farewell ceremony, especially when you are surrounded by a large group of people in the ward. It really doesn't feel good.

Zhang Yifei's inspection report was sent by Junko Takeda when he first came out. They all knew that Zhang Yifei was not injured. So when facing his tone, they all smiled with a relaxed attitude.

"By the way, how is the racing car?"

Zhang Yifei asked, just like a gun is the second life of a soldier, a car is the second life of a driver.

From the moment he was lying on the stretcher, Zhang Yifei kept thinking about the problem of racing. There were only two days before the main race, and he didn't want to miss it.

"It cannot be repaired, I can only change to a spare racing car, but your ankle has a sprain. Do you need to use Burdes to replace it?"

Cosel simply replied, he is always so direct.

"The ankle is not a big deal. Two days are enough. If you change to a spare racing car, it means you have to start from the pit area and you are too behind."

Zhang Yifei frowned. You must know that departure from the repair station is even worse than the last one in the parking space.

At least the last one is close to the car in front, and the lucky starting circle can catch up with several drivers. When the repair station starts, you need to wait for all the vehicles to pass before you can follow them. Compared with the last one, the distance is wide.

There are very few drivers who start at the repair station in history who can make it into the top ten, and there are very few drivers who can make it into the top six points, unless they are world champion drivers like Senna and Schumacher.

Zhang Yifei, the Malaysian team, went further to the podium, but unexpectedly it was difficult to even enter the top ten.

"It is normal for a newcomer to fall behind in the season. Don't put too much pressure on yourself and recover from your injuries."

Prost comforted him, although he felt very sorry, compared to the points in one stop, it was obvious that the driver was much more important.

Moreover, last season, I experienced all the 17-stop zero-point scenes, and this 1-stop zero-point scene is not even a small scene.

And then again, Prost team may not necessarily have zero points in the Malaysian Grand Prix. After all, Alessi's condition is constantly recovering, which is really a big possibility of impacting the top six points.

Zhang Yifei did not care about Prost's comfort, but murmured: "It seems that the only way to recover is to fight the rain!"

Many people think that the rain battle will be a disadvantage for newcomers, especially for Asian drivers like Zhang Yifei, which are difficult to go through rainy training due to climate factors.

But in fact, Zhang Yifei's experience in water accumulation and muddy roads is much richer than others imagined. Rain battles will greatly affect the racing lap speed. As long as you run fast enough, you can even surpass your opponent in a lap for a few seconds.

When the repair station starts and wants to catch up, the only chance is to fight the rain! I just don’t know if there will be rainfall in the Sepang track two days later.

"Are you so confident in the rain war?"

Hearing Zhang Yifei's words, Cosel couldn't help asking.

Zhang Yifei's previous performance on the track made Kossel think of Senna at the time, who also became famous in one battle through the newcomer stage by relying on the rain battle.

But Zhang Yifei's form and confidence just now were filled with Senna's shadow back then, which once made Cosel feel dazed. Only Senna would face the track in the rain and had such strong confidence.

But there is one thing that Cosel never understood. Senna is a Brazilian driver. It was under the climate conditions of Brazil that he cultivated Senna's magical rain fighting ability. Others don't know that Zhang Yifei, as a competition engineer, is very clear that this kid has not received any professional rain fighting training. How can he be so skilled and confident in rain fighting?

"It's not just rain battles, but I have confidence in any track conditions. But the chance of success of rain battles is even greater when starting at the repair station!"

When Zhang Yifei said this, almost all the members of the convoy in the ward looked at each other.

**! Is this a Chinese newcomer bragging, or is he really capable? F1 After decades of history, newcomers who dare to say this can count with one hand!

Can you verify Zhang Yifei's words? You can only put them on the track. To be honest, the team members are basically unsure, and they feel that Zhang Yifei is young and frivolous, and he is talking big with a tough bullet.

The accident in the practice competition also attracted a lot of attention with the spread of various media almost for a long time.

Especially in Malaysia and China, it is viewed as urgent hot news. After all, both of them are the first F1 drivers in their country, creating a historic breakthrough and have great influence.

Compared with the fact that Chinese media can objectively report the incident, the Malaysian media's finger pointing more at Zhang Yifei's dangerous overtaking. In their opinion, Zhang Yifei's contempt before the game and radical overtaking during the practice game are the culprits that caused the accident.

At the same time, the examination results of Xiong Long's side also came out. Compared with Zhang Yifei's slight sprain, Xiong Long suffered severe damage to the chest and abdomen, three broken ribs, and the cervical spine was also misaligned, causing a coma of the compression nerve.

As for the severe bleeding of the mouth and nose, it is just caused by bumps and not a serious injury.

The most difficult thing here is the misalignment of the cervical spine. If there is no way to completely recover, slight misalignment will be similar to the symptoms of cervical spondylosis, and the neck will easily be sore. If you are not lucky, the misalignment will become more and more severely and you may even be paralyzed.

This news made the Malaysian audience even more angry. Even the FUA Malaysian United complained to the FUA, hoping that they could punish Zhang Yifei for his dangerous driving behavior, believing that he was not suitable for F1 sports and that his super driver's license should be revoked, as if the punishment for future Japanese driver I was punished by Yui will be staged in advance in this world.

It's just a pity that Zhang Yifei is not Yidai! The FIA ​​and the F1 Council directly denied the accusations against Zhang Yifei. The track video clearly proved that Zhang Yifei was overtaking normally and had not even had any collisions.

It was Xiong Long's own mistaken control that caused the racing car to slip and collided, and Zhang Yifei was not at all at fault.

Malaysian audiences naturally felt very dissatisfied with such a decision, but that's the case. Not to mention dangerous driving, Zhang Yifei didn't even have basic mistakes.

The FIA ​​even praised Zhang Yifei's actions after the collision, saying that if Zhang Yifei had not controlled the racing car to maintain the cornering trajectory, the accident might have had a lot of serious consequences!
