629 Arrogant Idea
Montoya's anger and resentment that had finally curbed before appeared again at this moment, because Zhang Yifei's actions were equivalent to surpassing his most proud parts.
You should know that what Indy drivers are most proud of is their wildness and courage, so that they can laugh at F1 as a sissy sport in a situation where they are absolutely backward in control skills.
Montoya lost to Zhang Yifei before, and he could comfort himself, at least he did not lose in motorsports with courage and wildness. Now Zhang Yifei is more radical and extreme than himself, and even in such adversity, he has a stronger desire to win.
So Montoya didn't want to see Zhang Yifei's success, otherwise he wouldn't be able to find anything to be proud of in front of this Chinese driver.
The warm beads of the track were as usual. Zhang Yifei lined up at the end of the traffic and ran this lap calmly, feeling quite uncontested.
However, many drivers learned from the team strategy group that Zhang Yifei had replaced the red super soft tire. The drivers may have new players, but the team strategy group cannot have such problems. They immediately judged the Prost team's strategy.
"Alvin, please note that Fei used super soft tires this time, don't be overtaken by him."
Jaguars manager Nicky Lauda warned team No. 1 driver Eddie Alvin.
As one of the first team management teams to pay attention to and understand Zhang Yifei on the track, when Lauda saw Zhang Yifei's red super soft tires, he understood that the Chinese boy was going to go crazy in the final battle.
Although Lauda appreciates Zhang Yifei's crazy behavior, as an opponent, he does not want his drivers to be easily surpassed.
Any driver on this track has defeated countless opponents in the era of Formulas to have the chance to stand in this peak paddock.
You can lose, but you must not lose to your opponent in shame. If you win by a Chinese boy's repair station and you are fined for ten seconds, will the other drivers be a bunch of waste?
"Xiong Long, Alonso, stop the Chinese boy at all costs. Does he really think that he can dominate this track?"
The Minardi team strategy group also issued the order, and the issuer of this order is Minardi, the founder of the team!
Because of the grudge between his son and Zhang Yifei, Minardi actually hated Zhang Yifei very much in his heart, but he was a businessman and he was interested in interests rather than superficial revenge.
So he not only did not help Madu, but even stopped some of his stupid fighting behavior.
But at this time of the competition, Minardi is already at the bottom and there is no hope. So let the two new drivers take advantage of this opportunity to fight the Chinese, and they may be able to perform well and become famous in one fell swoop!
Hearing the convoy's instructions, whether it was Xiong Long or Alonso, there was a look of what he wanted.
Needless to say, Xiong Long, one of his biggest motivations for returning to the track is to take revenge on Zhang Yifei.
Alonso never forgot the scene of being humiliated by Zhang Yifei at the beginning of the season. This is unacceptable for the boss's extremely proud self-esteem.
However, Alonso is really just a pure rookie, far from reaching the height of ending the Ferrari dynasty and defending the F1 world championship.
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for them to have a fair showdown with Zhang Yifei now, because they are not of the same level of drivers at all and cannot run to the front row to fight.
The only factor that allows Zhang Yifei to appear behind him is being trapped by this Chinese boy. But as long as the driver has a trace of dignity and pride, he will not be shameless and think that this is a fair showdown, and the referee of the track will also issue a blue flag to force the line.
So today's opportunity is once a lifetime for them. Chinese boys should not pass this level easily.
In addition to these two teams, other mid- and lower-stream teams on the track basically issued similar team instructions to let them defend Zhang Yifei well and no longer create a season miracle for him.
However, the Big Three teams are exceptions. First, their drivers are basically in the front row. The team strategy team does not believe that Zhang Yifei has this strength and can catch up and fight with him.
Another thing is that so what if you catch up, will the Big Three drivers be afraid? If even a newcomer who started the car in the end is afraid, then don’t be a professional driver in the f1 paddock, or go back to the countryside to drive a tractor!
With the arrival of the departure countdown, the intensive fleet commands were delivered to an abrupt end.
When the five indicator lights went out, twenty racing cars on the track roared out, leaving only Montoya and Zhang Yifei, who were repairing the passage, were still waiting for the arrival of departure time.
After a few seconds, the Williams team indicator light lit up, Montoya stepped on the accelerator and used the fastest time to increase the speed to 80km/h of the maintenance channel limit.
This time, not only Zhang Yifei did not give up on his hope of victory, but Montoya did not give up either. Even if he started from the maintenance channel, he still had the desire to win. This is the only thing that can prove his honor and the Indy drivers.
Otherwise, for a long time in the future, with the defeat of Formula 1, Indy Racing and drivers will not be able to raise their heads in front of Formula 1!
The moment Montoya rushed out of the parking space, Zhang Yifei was already counting down in his heart, 10, 9, 8, 7...
When it came to the number 1, Zhang Yifei didn't even look at the starting indicator light. He directly loosened the clutch and rushed over, and the speed was so fast that even the crew members didn't react.
"Just just now, did the car move first, or did the lights turn on first, Brother Fei didn't rush to take the lead?"
Ah Hu asked Charlie, the chief technician beside him in amazement. Because Zhang Yifei's reaction speed was so fast just now, it felt that it was beyond the limit of human beings. He did not start after seeing the green light on.
"Of course the lights are on first, otherwise there will be a referee punishment now."
F1 punishes the start-up and start-up very severely, even exceeding many crashes on many tracks that cannot be clearly responsibilities.
As long as the front of the car crosses the starting line, the repair station will be suspended for 10 seconds. If the entire body crosses the starting line, the black flag will directly withdraw from the race. You should know that many drivers drove "bumper cars" on the track in the early days, and rarely saw the scene of directly emitting the black flag to withdraw from the race. You can know the severity of the punishment for f1 for rushing.
"Fei is really betting this time. In order to save reaction time, he predicted that he would start ten seconds in his mind, so he wouldn't be afraid of being fined 10 seconds more?"
In the repair station, Henry also said to Cosell with lingering fear.
The team's strategic direction has actually formulated radical tactics, making Zhang Yifei crazy in the Japanese Grand Prix, seeing if he can be killed and create a miracle!
However, no matter how the team formulates a strategy, it is impossible to save this reaction time, and the accuracy of the estimate is too high. If you play it, Zhang Yifei would not have to run in this game and could directly announce his withdrawal.
"It's already the worst situation, how bad can it be?"
Kossel replied indifferently that Zhang Yifei has almost suffered the most severe punishment after canceling the points in the branch. This kind of departure is significantly behind, which is equivalent to giving up the competitiveness of this competition.
If that's the case, then what else can you dare not bet? No matter how far you fall behind, it is impossible to be worse than the last one. If you want to turn the article in a desperate situation, you must use extraordinary means. This is the case with the three-stop tactics, and save the reaction time at zero point and a few seconds after starting after seeing the lights on!
But then again, Cosel also sighed a little. This kid really has a talented sensitivity to time, otherwise using this method to bet would be self-defeating!
"What a fast speed, no wonder it is called the blue ghost on the track!"
As the last driver to start on the track, the track broadcast footage also pointed at Zhang Yifei when he started, just taking a shot of this critical starting speed.
Yuzuo Ito is not a newcomer commentator. He has also commented on several Japanese Grand Prixes before, and he also focuses on F1 event commentators in Japan.
But in his impression, the starting speed can be faster than Zhang Yifei just now, almost nothing!
Just as Ito Yuzuki finished speaking, Zhang Yifei's starting reaction time appeared on the data screen of the commentary station track.
When I saw this number, let alone Yuzuo Ito was surprised, even Brendel, a veteran of the track for twenty years, opened his mouth wide. Because this starting reaction time is equivalent to the standard of a world-class 100-meter sprinter!
But you should know that the sprinter only needs to rush out by himself, and the F1 driver also needs to let the entire race car rush out, which is equivalent to an additional mechanical control step in the middle.
In the correct situation, the reaction time of the F1 driver is more than three times that of Zhang Yifei's reaction speed today. That is to say, about 0.4 seconds after the indicator light is on or off, the car can be controlled to rush out of the parking space.
This starting speed has almost exceeded the limit of human beings. It is impossible to react instantly alone, but can only rely on early reactions.
But the problem is that you can watch the five indicator lights gradually light up on the track, at intervals per second, so you can estimate that you are ready to start in advance. Zhang Yifei started from the maintenance channel, and there was only a green light that would suddenly light up in front of him. The only thing that could provide him with time estimates was Montoya's start!
The error of estimating 1 second in my mind is simply incomparable to estimating 10 seconds, but Zhang Yifei did it.
But what shocked Brendel even more was not that Zhang Yifei did it, but that he would do it!
The practice is abnormal, the super soft tires in the main competition, and the crazy start just now, these actions undoubtedly show that Zhang Yifei did not give up on this Japanese Grand Prix. He wants to catch up with him while falling far behind!
Many people have said before that with the arrogant personality of a Chinese boy and the passionate racing spirit, they may not give up the opportunity to sprint for three consecutive championships.
But the problem is, no matter how hard it is, everyone understands that it is almost impossible to achieve this, and it has never happened in f1 history.
If you can work hard and fight in the direction of reality, only Zhang Yifei really did this.
