427 The Spirit of Ah Q

Not only Prost team issued track instructions, but almost all teams asked the race car to enter the station and replace it with rain tires to prepare for the next rain battle.

At the same time, the 110,000 spectators at the Sepang Track were also excited at this time. Because the rain battle in the F1 season is something that is hard to come by, and it may not be possible to encounter a rain battle in ten main games.

The rain battle represents a more intense competition and a more exciting viewing experience. They are naturally happy to witness the exciting and fierce rain battle duel.

"This is really a helper to Zhang Yifei. He has the chance to enter the points zone!"

"I still remember the scene of the rain battle between the practice competition. Zhang Yifei's rain battle strength must not be regarded as the standard of a newcomer."

"Sena became famous by fighting the rain back then. Can we see Zhang Yifei also become famous today?"

"It's very likely that I can't wait!"

Zhang Yifei's Chinese fans became even more excited at this time because Zhang Yifei's performance in the practice competition before was really unforgettable. At that time, he caught up with home driver Xiong Long, and his lap speed was amazing, almost at the top three in the track.

It was Zhang Yifei's amazing performance that reversed the concerns in the hearts of many supporters. Since Chinese drivers are not afraid of the rain war and can become stronger, what's there to worry about? The rain war is Zhang Yifei's show time!

"Zhang Yifei, come on!"

"Come on, the opportunity is here!"

"The performance time is up, let them see the control of the practice match!"

The shouting sounds grew louder and louder, even overshadowing the sound of rain on the Sepang track.

However, this confident and arrogant cheering voice also aroused the counterattack of the Malay Witch audience on the track.

"With the level of crashing at the end of the practice competition, can you say you can enter the points zone?"

"The garbage rookie will withdraw from the race. Don't be able to control the racing car when you fight, and you will threaten other drivers again!"

"I still want to be comparable to Senna? This group of Chinese audiences are really ignorant!"

"The driver flew away and was lucky to OPY Kimi's triple jump, and wanted to OPY Senna's newcomer rain battle. The copycat was simply a dream!"

The sound of sour sarcasm was also quite loud. In the practice competition, Zhang Yifei knocked Xiong Long out of the track. Now the old story is re-introduced, coupled with the confident cheers of Chinese audiences, which naturally makes them feel angry and unhappy.

The sound of rain, the roar of engines, the cheers and shouts of the track were mixed together, and it was as lively as a symphony.

However, these things have nothing to do with the drivers competing on the track. At this time, almost all drivers are speeding up and want to enter the station earlier to change tires to avoid being stuck in the repair channel with other racing cars.

Because the rain was sudden and the amount of rain was not small, the team commands were very dense, and almost eleven teams issued orders to enter the station and change tires at the same time. You should know that at this moment, in addition to the drivers who withdrew from the race for various reasons, there are still more than a dozen racing cars left on the track.

According to the rules, the maintenance channel is speed-limited and overtaking is not allowed. More than a dozen racing cars are rushing into the maintenance channel. Whoever enters the station will inevitably be affected and increases their entry time.

If the impact of entering the station is acceptable, after all, no one is allowed to overtake, and the ranking has not changed. Then many drivers probably cannot accept the impact of leaving the station.

Because it is very likely that when you change your tires and prepare to leave the station, a racing car happened to pass by the maintenance passage. In order to avoid a collision accident, under normal circumstances, the car is allowed to pass first. Only after the lollipop person is sure that there is no danger, can he move the sign and let the driver leave the station.

It’s okay to say that a car is a big loss if it’s several cars in a row. So if you want to avoid this, you must enter the station faster than others, and then you can leave the station faster than others!

Zhang Yifei also had this mentality and increased his entry speed, but the rainfall was even heavier than he thought. After only about 30 seconds, a thin layer of water began to accumulate in some low-lying areas on the track.

The disadvantages of hard tires are beginning to show that after the tire is cooled by rainwater, the tire temperature is seriously insufficient in normal working conditions. In addition, the bald tire does not have enough drainage lines. Once it enters the water-abundant road surface, the tire will have the same effect as the suspended water surface, and the grip is terrible.

So now Zhang Yifei dares not adjust his steering wheel significantly. Maybe he will turn around the track directly if he slips. Especially in some high-speed sharp turns, Zhang Yifei can only be forced to slow down and turn in a safer way, rather than pursuing speed.

Zhang Yifei's tire restrictions gave Panis the British and American teams catching up with him. He surpassed Zhang Yifei in a sharp turn 7 500 meters away from the entrance of the maintenance passage, relying on the advantages of super soft tires and the reliable performance of the Honda engine.

The British and American team (bar) is considered a new team in the F1 paddock. It only debuted in the 1999 season. But just like this year's new team Toyota and Renault, the British and American teams are not without foundation. Its predecessor was the old F1 team Treal.

You should know that in the f1 paddock, the most rich sponsor is the tobacco company, and the British and American fleet is the fleet formed by the British and American Tobacco Group, which is the kind that is not short of money.

At the beginning of its establishment, former world champion Jacques Villeneuve and wingbike driver Oliver Pennis were recruited to form a high and low partner. So compared with the struggles and progress of other new teams, the British and American teams came to the middle of the F1 team in one step, which is a very good result for the new team.

Panis entered the F1 paddock in 1994, but after running over the years, his grades were very average. He won a sub-station championship throughout his career, which was similar to Alessi's level.

However, his personality is far less powerful than Alessi, nor less casual and stubborn than ordinary Frenchmen. And Penis participated in more than 100 F1 games, which made him very rich in competition experience and enough to become a qualified wingman.

This is why Penis is not outstanding, but the British and American teams still choose him. After all, the British and American teams focus on Villeneuve, and they need an experienced and utilitarian driver to partner with him to avoid the emergence of infighting to the greatest extent.

After all, not all teams have the status and strength of the F1 Big Three, and can suppress two powerful drivers at the same time. For ordinary new teams or small teams, it is best not to choose two equally strong drivers, otherwise the harm outweighs the benefits.

This is the best example of Prost team. Last season, two strong drivers were in the same team and their strength was evenly matched. No one obeyed each other, which directly led to the collapse of internal fighting.

Sometimes, one strong and one weak, it is easier to achieve results with high and low combinations. British and American teams have made the best choice based on their own situation.

Wingcop driver Panis actually has no strong desire to attack. If it weren't for the rain, he might not have launched an overtaking offensive against Zhang Yifei so decisively.

However, in the face of Panis' overtaking, Zhang Yifei did not make a strong blocking move, because the stability of the car had dropped to the bottom at this moment, and Zhang Yifei could feel the signs of a tail swing when he passed the corner.

If you speed up and change lane at this time, the tail swing will be directly aggravated to become a "pendulum". This situation means that the car has lost control and needs to be rescued by combining luck and control.

When he was in the practice competition against Xiong Long, Zhang Yifei saved the "pendulum" racing car once. But he couldn't save it every time, especially in the case of hard tires, so Zhang Yifei did not choose to take risks to block the car.

Because of Panis's personality and strength, Zhang Yifei knew very well that even if he was allowed to surpass him, he could overtake him in the next schedule.

In the rain battle environment, Zhang Yifei is very confident about his strength and experience. Today, he is not worthy of anyone except Schumacher in the Sepang Track!

Zhang Yifei rationally chose to avoid risks, but after all, he was overwhelmed by someone, so the audience in the stands didn't care about the reason.

They just care that Zhang Yifei was easily overtaken. This is the performance of the dish and the best response to the "big talk" of Chinese supporters.

"Didn't it mean that Yu Zhan is very strong? He was overtaken before he even entered the station?"

"Even Penis can't run away, and he still boasts that he can compete with Senna!"

"After all, Chinese people are used to fake fakes, and lies are a kind of culture."

"Let's wait and see. The Sepang Circuit will completely reveal Fei's strength. He is just a jumping clown."

"The Chinese guy is not worthy of entering F1, he is far less powerful than a European driver!"

Seeing Zhang Yifei's ranking gradually falling behind, the Malay audience began to mock him and seemed very excited.

As long as any driver surpasses Zhang Yifei, it is like their Malaysian victory. This kind of Aq spirit is quite like some countries in later generations. It is Europe and the United States, but the question is, does the United States have any relationship with you?

Just like the scene on the track now. Even if the European driver is strong, can this change the fact that Xiong Long was crushed by Chinese driver Zhang Yifei?

Zhang Yifei left the main track and entered the maintenance channel. The team technician team was ready, all the rain tires were ready, and the rain battle adjustment will also be carried out at the same time.

In addition to changing tires this time, the gas will also be filled with fuel and exit the station. It will not run fast anyway in rainy days. Heavy loading oil can strengthen the downforce of the vehicle body and reduce the number of times of entering the station. Since a stopover tactic was formulated before, Kossel plans to implement it to the end!

When the team members parked accurately in the repair parking space, they began their division of labor like machinery. At the same time, other teams race cars entered the station one after another, but at this moment, there were many chaotic scenes.

For example, Fischela of Renault drove into the Toyota team's repair parking space and was stunned for about two or three seconds before she realized it. It also blocked the time when Toyota racing entered the station, causing the Toyota manager to swear.

In fact, this kind of thing about entering the wrong station is common in F1 events. Even world champions, such as Patton and Hamilton, have experienced embarrassing scenes of entering the wrong station.

But they reacted very quickly, and basically they reacted before they could stop and drove out directly. It is rare for Fischela to be stunned for two or three seconds. It is probably related to the fact that Renault and Toyota are recruits this year, and the drivers did not even have the intention to do the logo of their own team.
