708 Headwind Output (Chapter 2)
Zhang Yifei discussed with Cosell for a few words and quickly determined the adjustment plan for his qualifying competition. After all, he had personally tested all the adjustment combinations and had already figured it out.
At this time, when Zhang Yifei turned around, he happened to hear the conversation between Cod and Alonso, and also saw the entangled expression on Alonso's face.
Zhang Yifei can probably guess at the top of his mindset at this moment. He is a very unique driver and never willing to bow his head easily. Even when facing the pressure of the team management, Alonso often chooses to fight hard.
Now facing this scene, his previous pride and pride was severely impacted. If he chose to use Zhang Yifei's test data, it would mean that he would bow his head and surrender. Alonso was not the kind of person who easily admits defeat. Even in the rookie stage, he was very confident in his driving skills.
"The qualifying match is about to begin, make a decision sooner."
Zhang Yifei did not express his persuasion or rejection, but just a faint reminder that it was about to be the qualifying race of the Singapore Grand Prix, and there was not much time left for racing adjustment.
Faced with Zhang Yifei's reminder, Alonso's expression on his face was gloomy and clear, and it was obvious that he was having a fierce struggle in his heart.
“I believe in my track understanding.”
Alonso finally chose to stick to his plan, and he was unwilling to give in to Zhang Yifei just like that!
"Ha, it's up to you."
Zhang Yifei replied indifferently, then walked to the lounge and prepared to change the racing suit.
His words reminded Alonso were purely based on the identity of his teammates and the interests of the team. They did not mean that Zhang Yifei was asking Alonso to use his own data to achieve better results.
Just kidding, there is nothing else about the two people, except for the identity of this "teammate". To put it bluntly, the identities of the two people are more like opposing "enemy". One day, he thinks about how to kill each other and become the No. 1 driver of the team.
The other Zhang Yifei is actually not a good man and a woman. He wants to let Alonso be cannon fodder and fight against the peak Barrichello, at least help him share his firepower.
This is completely different from the tacit cooperation with Alaisi before, and there is no teammate appearance. But in fact, this relationship is the normal teammates' mode of getting along in the f1 yard. Zhang Yifei and Alaisi's friendly cooperation before, on the contrary, it is abnormal!
It sounds quite bizarre, but in the final analysis, it is still in conflict of interest.
When Zhang Yifei first joined the Prost team, he had a conflict of identity with Alaisi. But in fact, that kind of discord was more because Alaisi couldn't stand up to face, rather than a big conflict of interest. Later, as Alaisi accepted his fate, the two sides naturally became more and more tacit.
But both of them are arrogant young drivers, with only one position and they all want to get ahead, so they must step down one person. This kind of conflict of interest cannot be reconciled unless someone voluntarily surrenders and admits defeat.
Surrendering and admitting defeat takes a process. When you cannot see any hope for victory, you will naturally have such an idea.
Alonso began to show his potential and also obtained the Prost Ap05 racing car, which is known as the "Rail Rover" level this year, officially entering its own explosive period.
At this time, how could Alonso easily surrender to Zhang Yifei? So even if he knew that using the track data tested by Zhang Yifei would be more beneficial to him, he still chose to stick to his decision. This is the personality of a future top driver.
At 9:00 pm on March 2, there were only the last twenty minutes left before the Singapore Grand Prix qualifying round began.
The audience stands of 100,060 people can be described as full seats, and even in front of some high-rise buildings next to the street, there are already fans who have not bought tickets.
This is also a feature of the Singapore Grand Prix. There are many high-rise buildings and you can watch the track from a distance. Even the most exaggerated one is to climb the 165-meter-high "Singapore Ferris Wheel" and watch the F1 race in a different way.
In addition, the reason why the Singapore Grand Prix chose a night game is not that I want to do something special, but because at this time, I can take care of the basic F1 plate, which is the time for European car fans to watch.
Ratings mean money. For a businessman country like Singapore, maximizing the interests of the F1 Grand Prix is the issue they are more considering.
At the Ferrari team repair station, Jean Todd is standing next to the car and performing pre-race mobilization.
"Shumi, the qualifying competition cannot retain its strength. It is difficult to overtake on the Singapore track, so the pole position advantage is very big, and you must win this qualifying competition!"
The opening game has a considerable influence, especially for a "Internet celebrity" team like Ferrari. Maintaining influence and exposure means huge advertising sponsorship fees.
The Singapore Grand Prix is a must-win game for Ferrari, and the street race characteristics are destined to be difficult to overtake. Whoever can get pole position in the qualifying race, as long as there is no mistake in the main competition, will be 50% sure to become the final champion.
"I know."
Schumacher nodded. He actually didn't like Jean Todd's advice. Don't he know these things? I still need a reminder?
However, the Ferrari team's strategy group has always been strong. Even if Schumacher is absolutely supreme in the team, he still has to give the strategy group some face.
"I certainly believe you can get pole position, but you still have to pay attention to it. Renault's Helio performed well and could be a threat."
When he heard this, even Schumacher's face showed a hint of solemnity.
Because after these three practice games, Helio's performance and speed were beyond many people's expectations. It can be described as being below one person or above ten thousand people.
Except for the three-training extreme circles that were surpassed by Schumacher, they were always evenly matched, and the two of them were ahead of each other!
Montoya was already eye-catching enough last year, but he didn't expect that Helio's performance this year was even more exaggerated, just like the situation when Villeneuve entered the f1 paddock.
Half a year ago, this American boy lost a lot on the Indy track and was humiliated by Zhang Yifei. Who would have thought that half a year later, this guy performed strongly in the f1 paddock and made up his mind to avenge his previous shame.
Seeing the solemn expression on Schumacher's face, Jean Todd knew that he must have listened, so he didn't plan to continue to say too much, because if he continued to say it, it would be an insult to Schumacher.
But just as he turned around and was about to walk away, he suddenly remembered someone, hesitated for a moment and turned around and asked Schumacher: "Do you think there will be any reversal in the qualifying match?"
"Yes, I don't believe he can't run away from the night battle."
“What is the reason?”
"No reason, intuition!"
Schumacher left this sentence, which sounded mysterious, but Jean Todd had no doubts, because his professional experience told him that he would never doubt the intuition of a master.
Not everyone has this kind of master intuition. For example, most of the audience in the stands still use the results of three practice games to mock Zhang Yifei for becoming a short-lived driver.
"Without the cheers of those Chinese, the track has finally become quiet."
"Are they embarrassed to brag about the results of riders who are out of ten?
"I want to laugh when I think of the name of Chinese car god. It turns out that a driver appears in a country without racing background, so he is called a car god!"
"I can't wait to see what kind of humiliation that Helio would have suffered when he was proud of his flight at the US Grand Prix!"
"Come on, Hylio, proves the strength and pride of the Indy drivers!"
Faced with these ridicule, the traditional Chinese unpretentious personality rarely does things that are against the wind before the result appears.
However, Zhang Yifei's arrogant image on the track still subtly influenced some Chinese car fans. Isn't it just a little late in the practice race? Now there is no running in the qualifying competition, so what are you talking about?
"I just like to call the Chinese car god? I have the ability to make you a car god in the United States!"
"Now, when Che Shenfei said that he had conquered the Indy Track, why didn't he see such a confident mockery?"
"Chinese racing has no foundation. It seems that your Malaysian racing is very strong. Does Xiong Long give Zhang Yifei the shoes to carry? "
"And can you, the banana man, shut up? You can't even lick this skin white without waving it like this!"
This is not an absolute home court like the United States or Brazil. When Zhang Yifei's fans stood up, they were also very popular and they were confident in counterattacking!
Zhang Yifei is no longer the rookie who just entered the F1 paddock last year. Before mocking him, many driver fans first look in the mirror to see the driver they support. Do they have this strength?
It’s okay if the fans of the Big Three are arrogant. Why is Helio, an Indy champion, proud of himself in the F1 paddock?
Half a year later, I suffered from amnesia. Have you forgotten the scene when Zhang Yifei stepped on the Indy champion?
As for Xiong Long, that's even a joke. Firefly dares to compete with the sun and the moon, and is qualified to speak?
However, the most unacceptable thing for Chinese car fans on the track is that some home audiences are crazy about belittling Zhang Yifei to please foreign car fans. This image of Ergouzi is really disgusting.
Faced with the counterattack of Chinese car fans, some of the people who were proud to mock him before, didn’t know how to respond. Because these Chinese guys talked about their pain, mocking him also requires capital. You don’t even have Zhang Yifei’s achievements, so where did you come from the b-face to mock him for being weak? Is it just that habitual sense of superiority?
