The members of the strategy team looked at Cosel at this time. The boss Prost was not here. Cosel was the team's highest decision-maker, and only he could suppress Zhang Yifei's emotions.

Looking at the strategy group beside him, Kossel felt very conflicted. At present, Zhang Yifei may be only one step away from pole position. If he can run faster in the next lap, he might be able to surpass Montoya and get the second pole position title in his career.

According to Kossel's radical character, he was willing to take some risks for the pole position.

If an F1 driver dares not take risks, what qualifications are there to be called the world's top driver?

But this time, Cosell knew that the current lap speed was already Zhang Yifei's limit. Because the fastest lap speed he drove on the racing simulator was only 1 point, and compared with the current one, the gap can be said to be very small!

Theoretically, the lap speed of the racing simulator is much faster than the actual track. Because the simulator has an absolutely ideal environment and does not have any psychological pressure, so there is no need to worry about safety issues.

Under normal circumstances, the difference between the lap speed of the racing simulator and the real lap speed of the track is around 0.1 to 0.2 seconds, which is already considered the first-class driver level in F1.

And this time, Zhang Yifei's fastest lap was almost equal to the simulator's lap speed. If he still took the risk and speeded up, the consequences might be unimaginable!

"Fei, control your emotions. Your current route is too extreme and is on the verge of losing control."

Kossel finally persuaded Zhang Yifei on the track through the team's voice system.

Because when he was having difficulty making a decision, he thought of another person, that is Senna.

The tragedy of Senna can no longer happen to Zhang Yifei.

"Riders should have been on the verge of losing control, right?"

Zhang Yifei's expression on his face was very firm. He knew that victory was right in front of him. As long as he could be faster, he would surpass Montoya and become the champion of the US Grand Prix.

After enduring the ridicule for two days, he was waiting for this moment, using the fastest lap score of pole position to respond to the American strength and the ridicule of IndyCar fans.

f1 is the strongest Formula racing car in the world, and I, Zhang Yifei, are the strongest Formula newcomer in the world!

"Didn't you say you were afraid of death before? You will really die if you hit a wall!"

Cosell's tone was filled with anger. Whether Zhang Yifei understood or did not understand his track instructions, he would obey unconditionally.

But this time, Zhang Yifei obviously refused to abide by it. Kossel was not only angry about his disobedience to the convoy's command, but also worried that Zhang Yifei would really hit the pole position recklessly, and eventually the consequences that he would not dare to think about!

"But you have also said that I don't deserve to be an F1 driver because I'm afraid of death."

There are only the last two laps left in the qualifying race. The grip of the extremely soft tire is still at its peak, the fuel tank has almost bottomed out, and the weight of the car is the lightest stage. This is the best time to hit the pole position. If you miss it, the competition will be over.

"Is your goal just a pole position in a sub-stop event? Fly, then you really disappoint me."

After saying this, Cosell cut off the voice call with Zhang Yifei. He has never been a mother-in-law and a hard-working person.

The truth is already here. If you want to listen, you will die. Just like Kossel's original philosophy, no one can teach a top F1 driver, and no one can decide the choice of an F1 driver!

Cosell's words were like a basin of ice water pouring on Zhang Yifei, instantly extinguishing many crazy thoughts in his mind!

Yes, my goal has never been a sub-station pole position, or even a sub-station champion.

I have said that to become the strongest driver in the car world, you must surpass Senna and Schumacher and become the next world car god!

Reason returned to Zhang Yifei's mind. His lap speed is now the limit, but he ran out under extremely risky circumstances. Three practice games and the crazy simulator training last night could not completely make up for the shortcomings in control.

The previous tracking control that approached the cement wall at the edge of the track was not under Zhang Yifei's control, but was in a semi-out of control and successfully turned the corner with luck.

If you do such an extremely late brake again, or in order to pursue a faster lap, Zhang Yifei himself doesn't know whether he can still pass the corner safely.

"Cosell, I know what to do."

Zhang Yifei finally replied, his tone was not as stubborn as before, but returned to calmness.

Hearing this answer, the crew members were relieved. They knew that Zhang Yifei had calmed down.

In fact, this kind of emotion is inevitable as long as it is a driver, no matter how strong it is. For example, Senna and Prost have been entangled with each other for several years, Schumacher wanted to hit people several times, etc.

When the car gods are impulsive, Zhang Yifei faces the contempt of 200,000 spectators at the US Grand Prix. This situation is unprecedented in the F1 car world. Perhaps only Hamilton's racial discrimination in the future can be slightly comparable.

However, for Hamilton's black racial discrimination, it is more invisible discrimination under political correctness. Zhang Yifei faced the public ridicule and humiliation of the whole audience, and the psychological pressure was greater!

So it is normal for him to have the mentality of wanting to prove himself.

Fortunately, Zhang Yifei finally controlled his emotions and did not do any impulsive things. It was already good for him to do this in this state and background. After all, the driver is not a machine without emotions.

In the last few laps of qualifying, Montoya's lap speed was improved again, and with his results, he won the pole position in the US Grand Prix.

It has to be said that Montoya's experience in Indianapolis' local competition for several years has made him understand the Indianapolis track well. Even if it is the F1 standard track, Montoya has not run less during his practice stages before. After all, he has signed a contract with Williams team's test driver and is destined to become an F1 driver.

This home court advantage, coupled with the top racing performance, was as strong as Schumacher, but he still didn't run in the end. However, at the last moment, he narrowly surpassed Zhang Yifei's lap speed and won second place in the qualifying tournament.

But Schumacher was very dissatisfied with this result and did not have any happy expression on his face. Because the Chinese boy, the broken car like Prost, could surpass the fastest lap last year. The result he had to be at least 0.1 second faster than him, which was the normal lap speed of Ferrari cars.

Such a close lap speed only represents one thing, that is, putting aside the racing performance advantages, in fact, you are slower than flying!

"Brendel, I'm right. The driver can't get the pole position. Montoya is the ruler of this track."

Lewis had a winner's smile on his face, Montoya's performance could be described as perfect, and it greatly broke the fastest lap that Schumacher created last year.

Following this trend, the American Grand Prix champion can be said to be Montoya's possession, and the track record will be broken if nothing unexpected happens. In this way, Montoya can gather pole positions, track records, sub-station champions, and complete the hat trick of the American Grand Prix.

As it turns out, the strongest driver on the Indianapolis track will always be the Indy King!

"Fei also performed very well. If Montoya had no objective advantage, could he really be faster than Fei?"

Hearing this, Lewis said in a very disdainful tone: "Even luck is a kind of strength. Are you not allowed to use your own advantages? Brendel, as an experienced commentator, you should understand one thing, don't make excuses for failure!"

Brendel's face changed a little instantly. After all, he was also an old F1 commentator, but he was ridiculed by American newcomer like Lewis.

But Brendel could not refute that there was no excuse for failure in competitive sports, and there was no absolute fairness in this world. Montoya was able to enter Williams because of his own victory in the Indy 500 championship and his ability to squeeze out Jason Patton from entering. Zhang Yifei wanted to be on the same starting line as the other party, and he could choose to run well and join the Big Three team after running.

So now it’s slow, it’s slow, this is reality!

Seeing that Brendel didn't speak, Lewis showed a contemptuous smile on his lips. The era of Indy Racing is coming soon. At that time, "old antique" commentators like Brendel should be swept into the historical garbage dump.

At the end of the competition, Zhang Yifei's final lap was frozen in the third place. Whether it was the supporters on the track or the team repair station, they were cheering and excited at this moment. They were actually very satisfied with this result!

You can't expect a driver in a rookie season to get a hat trick every race, which has reached the performance standards of a super rookie.

"Zhang Yifei, you have run out of the strength and style of our Chinese drivers!"

"I didn't disappoint. Keep cheering on the main competition and win the US station championship!"

"Come on, fly!"

"I believe you can be stronger!"

Originally, American fans on the track were mainly cheering for Montoya's pole position. As a result, they felt very unhappy when they heard the cheering sounds of these Chinese people. The losers deserve to shout?

"Shut up, Chinese!"

"If you get third, you will be celebrated as a victory. As expected, this is the limit of the Chinese."

"I still want to win the championship in the main competition, so wait to kiss Montoya's butt!"

"It would be nice to be alive in the main competition. The rookie almost killed just now!"

The insulting voices in the stands covered up the cheering voices of Zhang Yifei. The third qualifying match was indeed good, but it was far from enough to shut up American audiences.
Chapter completed!
