526 Passionate (Chapter 2)
Schumacher drove back to the repair station and jumped out of the car the first thing he did was to find Coothard to fight.
However, he was blocked by dozens of people in the convoys of both sides, and Schumacher was still very capable of controlling his emotions, so he did not really take action in the end, otherwise he would have been punished first.
Montoya is a driver who is not inferior to Schumacher at all. He can even be said to be even more irritable and wild, and even his teammates don't give face to them later.
Sir Williams himself was furious, and it was difficult to guarantee that Montoya would not be on the verge of his head. He had to find someone to watch him and avoid doing anything extreme.
"I see."
Simmonds immediately told the crew to pay attention to the first F1 paddock fight in the new century, the protagonist is Montoya of his own team.
Although Coothard successfully blocked the car, his actions were obviously made with an emotion.
Hauge didn't want this to happen again, but the voice of the convoy was monitored by the FIA. Even if he knew in his heart that Kuthard did this on purpose, he could not say it explicitly, otherwise he would just send the evidence to his door.
Only suggestive reminders: "Kutterhard, pay attention to Montoya, behind the car."
This kind of words is to help Kuthard excuse him. His previous behavior was not intentional, but to not pay attention to the distance between Montoya in the rear.
"I see."
After venting, Coothard's mood became much calmer. After all, he was a professional driver. The first time he was born is very rare. If he was not calm in a row, it would only mean one thing. Coothard was not suitable to become an F1 driver.
Because of this, Montoya was not very adapted to the F1 environment and eventually returned to the Indy Series and drove wildly.
Kimi Raikkonen's success in overtaking also made many Williams home spectators feel unacceptable.
"Cuthard gets out of the track, a driver without professionalism!"
"This is a dangerous driving move. Coothard should be sent off and don't let him continue to harm other drivers."
"Does McLaren team not afford to play? Is even such despicable tricks useful?"
"Kutterhard, do you know why you are not as good as Schumacher? That's why!"
These sarcastic voices did not affect Kurthard on the track, but instead made some of Zhang Yifei's supporters angry.
"The grass mud horse, I still know it was a dangerous driving move. Why didn't you see you when Montoya hit Zhang Yifei?"
"That's right, I can't accept it anymore. No matter how despicable Coulterhard is, he is much better than your Williams team!"
"McLaren should join forces with Prost to make Williams' team run the track, garbage team, garbage driver!"
"Yes, come on McLaren, fly on, win belongs to us."
Maybe no one would have thought that after Williams fans burst into dissatisfaction, Zhang Yifei's fans would be more aggressive than McLaren's fans.
I can only say that the scene at the Brazil Grand Prix was a lingering pain in the hearts of many Chinese audiences and Zhang Yifei fans. If it weren't for Montoya's collision, it might be that it would not be celebrating the birth of China's first pole position, but that it would be early to celebrate the birth of China's first F1 finals.
In any case, the value of the pole position is still not comparable to that of the champion.
"What's wrong with the Chinese guy here? I thought I would be worthy of talking to the Big Three teams after getting a pole position?"
"I just say it if I have the ability to let Montoya take the pole position and surpass Zhang Yifei!"
"Montoya has won all the sub-station champions. What is the pole position?"
"If he had been flying on the track at that time, Montoya would have the share of the sub-station champion, how many times he had lost to Fei? Do you have any B-digits in your mind?"
"Yes, I'm going to take your mother, the Williams team is amazing. Wait and see, Prost beats you!"
A passionate squirting between the audience in the stands took place in this unpredictable situation.
At first, many fans of Zhang Yifei even fought back in English. Later, when the number of people was not as good as English, they went directly to their native language. Various fancy Chinese curses were not the same, resulting in a noisy audience, and no one paid attention to the situation on the track.
"President, the Chinese are quarreling against Europeans."
Toyota team leader Ueto Hirakawa said to Toyoda Chairman Miyako Toshida.
The audience is close to the track, so naturally it is closer to the repair station. Except for the Japanese in Toyota team who can barely understand some Chinese, other Europeans are just like listening to the heavenly books and have no idea what they are talking about.
"They may still be angry about the Brazilian Grand Prix."
"It is indeed a pity that Zhang Yifei of the Brazilian Grand Prix, but today he may have a chance to make up for his regret."
"I don't think this is a big chance."
Tomoda Miyaki replied, then looked at the broadcast screen and said, "Schumacher puts him more and more pressure. He has crossed the rear wheel several times and almost completed the overtaking."
"But Zhang Yifei blocked it."
"You can block it for a while, but you can't stop it for a lifetime. Do you think that Fei's super-level performance can maintain a normal game?"
Faced with this question, Uedo Hirakawa did not answer.
If a main race is too long, there will be countless possibilities in the middle. Zhang Yifei's current performance, based on Prost racing performance and the reference of opponents like Schumacher, is not too perfect, and it is impossible to tell at all. This is a newcomer who has been away from nine main races.
But the question is, can he really make no minor mistakes in the whole game?
No one knows the result, only Zhang Yifei on the track can give them the answer.
When the competition came to lap 15, Zhang Yifei still stood in front of Schumacher and did not let the strongest driver on the track surpass him.
With full concentration and pressure from the high G value of the track, Zhang Yifei's whole body was soaked with sweat. But he still controlled the Prost car steadily, using his exact accuracy to maintain his pole ranking!
In the Prost fleet repair station, it can be described as silent at this time, and everyone is focusing on the broadcast screen. No one knows more than they do. The pressure and difficulty Zhang Yifei is facing now is impeccable.
"Brother Zhi, it's been fifteen times, how long can Brother Fei last?"
"have no idea."
Chen Zhi replied briefly, he is now extremely nervous about Zhang Yifei, so how could he think about these problems?
"Ahu, no one knows how long Yifeijun can last. It's enough for us to know that he has done his best."
Junko Takeda also replied, she no longer thought about these issues.
Zhang Yifei has achieved a full score of 100 points. You can’t expect him to achieve 100 points.
"Sister Junzi, I understand."
Ah Hu nodded. The only thing he could do at this time was to wait.
The 16th lap of the race, Renault's Fischela engine failed and exited the race.
However, when he lost power, he drove the car to the lawn buffer zone, which did not affect the normal progress of the race.
On the 19th lap, Sauber's Mika Saro passed a very narrow Remus corner at high speed. The speed was too fast and the steering was insufficient, so he rushed out of the track and stopped the engine and retired.
From this moment on, two Sauber drivers, Hydefield and Mika Saro, both withdrew from the race and ended their journey on the A1 track.
On the 20th lap, Alonso, the only driver in Minardi team, braked for a long time and accelerated gear shifts, causing the gearbox to be damaged. He had no choice but to park the car on the side of the road, and then chose to withdraw from the race depressedly.
So Minardi's two drivers, Marcus and Alonso, also withdrew one after another, with only nine drivers left on the field.
In addition, Jordan team Frenzen failed to start and entered the repair station and was told that it could not be repaired and withdrew. When the competition came to twenty laps, there were always 6 drivers leaving the track, and there were 16 drivers left on the field.
Compared with those teams and drivers who can't even finish the race, Prost is now ranked first and the other is ranked eighth. I don't know how much better than before, and I vaguely feel like competing with the Big Three teams.
When the game came to lap 25, Alessi, who had been fighting with Barrichello, launched another attack on Barrichello from the outside with extreme brake action in front of the right curve No. 8 of the track. This offensive was more fierce than before.
Turn 8 also has a long straight road before entering the bend, but it is not as exaggerated as the 800-meter straight road in front of Bosch.
However, Turn 8 is not as fast as Bosch, and it can barely be regarded as a high-speed corner, so the G value of this corner is as high as 2.9!
The weight of triple weight makes it more difficult for drivers to overtake the car, and this is just the G value measured by the standard turnover route. If you choose to overtake from the outside faster, the G value will definitely exceed 3.
In this previous curve, Alessi basically didn't choose to attack. After all, his age and strength are here, the risk is too high, and the chance of taking risks is very low. Moreover, he is also a French character like Prost, and he doesn't like to bet like Zhang Yifei!
So after more than twenty laps, Barrichello also habitually took the standard detour route. He did not think that with Alessi's strength, he could surpass himself on this detour.
It turns out that nothing in this world is impossible, especially on the F1 paddock!
Alessi used the speed advantage brought by extreme late brakes and tenacious will to withstand the G value brought by the track, steadily controlled the car to turn from the outside, surpassed Barrichello on the inside, and arrived at the seventh position, only one step away from entering the points zone!
