709 Is it so cruel? (Chapter 3)
With this reason, Masa regarded Zhang Yifei as his learning object and his own transcendence object! That's why he wanted to join the Prost team, because knowing himself and his enemy will never be defeated. Only by better understanding the opponent can he defeat his opponent.
Today, I finally stood on the same track as Zhang Yifei again, but from the original Renault equation to Formula One.
Can you still catch up with the driver?
Masa asked in his heart, but he didn't even have the answer, but no matter what, he had the opportunity to compete on the same stage with Zhang Yifei again, Masa didn't want to lose this time!
As for Sato Dao, this is the strangest mentality inside. He also has a deep fear in addition to admiration!
Zhang Yifei's three-time practice competition was broken and was caused by many spectators in the stands, as if he was grabbing his braid and began to laugh at him round by rounds. Even in the maintenance station building, some teams believed that night battles were Zhang Yifei's shortcomings, and he might not be able to continue his strong performance last season.
But no one knows more about Zhang Yifei's ability to fight at night than Sato Dao and Toyota. Because Sato Dao's lap record on the bay coastline was surpassed by Zhang Yifei during the Japanese Grand Prix and has been maintained until today!
Toyota team manager Miyato Toshida met Zhang Yifei on the bay coastline. If such drivers are not good at night street racing, no one in the F1 drivers will be good at it.
So Sato Daoma and Toyota have been guessing why Zhang Yifei's lap in practice is so abnormal.
An old Chinese saying, "If something goes wrong, there will be a demon." The Japanese also know this sentence, so the Toyota team is afraid of it. What kind of demon is Zhang Yifei doing?
"Brendel, do you think this qualifying match can allow me to see Zhang Yifei's different lap times?"
Leo asked Brendel beside him, with a sarcastic tone in his tone.
Because of the practice competition before, Brendel said this when he said Zhang Yifei's lap speed was not very good. At the same time, Leo still remembered the disdainful smile on Brendel's face at that time.
How could an old commentator like Brendel not hear the sarcastic feeling in Leo's tone?
To be honest, Zhang Yifei's performance in this practice competition was completely beyond his expectations. In theory, Zhang Yifei's slow practice speed has become a routine, and he will definitely run amazing laps in the second half to respond to those questions about his strength.
But this time, not to mention the second half of the practice, or even the three practice races, I didn’t see Zhang Yifei’s amazing performance.
Regarding this result, both the audience in the enclosure and the media outside the enclosure have actually been discussed. Most people think that this is Zhang Yifei's not good at night battles, or that his performance last year was a flash in the pan and he had no real strength and his true level will gradually be exposed this year.
However, Brendel never believed that night battles would become Zhang Yifei's fatal shortcomings. He even more did not believe that the driver who performed so amazingly last year would be the kind of driver who had just passed the pan.
Just to respond to these remarks, it needs to be based on facts. Zhang Yifei did not perform very well in the practice competition. Brendel wanted to explain a few words to him, but he couldn't find a good reason.
But this does not mean that Brendel believes that this kind of lap speed is the limit of Zhang Yifei's Singapore Grand Prix. So in the face of Leo's sarcasm, Brendel still replied very firmly: "Of course, you will definitely see Fei's different lap speed!"
"But I haven't seen it before."
Leo did not intend to retreat this time. This British commentator is really stubborn. The facts are already in front of him. Are you still protecting Chinese drivers?
"Then let's wait and see this qualifying match."
"Are you so sure?"
"I guarantee it with my professional perspective!"
Brundell actually inherited the tradition of British scoundrels and rarely ended up directly by himself, let alone firmly support a Chinese driver who is invincible like today.
But Leo's sarcasm and his contempt for Zhang Yifei made Brendel feel angry.
How can people who are both esese and even look down on their own tribes?
Seeing Brendel getting angry, Leo laughed dryly and did not continue to fight.
Because Brendel is a veteran commentator in the F1 field, and he is a British person. He is a newcomer commentator, so it is better not to offend him to death.
Leo did not continue to speak, and Brendel did not intend to say anything more, but instead focused on the broadcast display. At this moment, the warm beads had been run, and the drivers were all back to the parking space, waiting for the official qualifying race to arrive.
The five indicator lights on the track lit up one after another. When they went out in an instant, Zhang Yifei started rapidly according to the standards of the main race. Before Hydefield could react to what was going on, he was directly overtaken by Zhang Yifei.
fcuk, what's going on? Is the driver Fei going to establish his authority this season?
When Hydefield faced Zhang Yifei's start-up overtaking, anger surged in his heart. Because the qualifying race looked at the fastest lap speed, rather than ranking changes and following the results, generally, drivers would not pay attention to starting as much as the main race. On the contrary, they would deliberately distance themselves and create an opportunity to run the fastest lap.
Therefore, Zhang Yifei's move to start overtaking in the opening battle is undoubtedly a very serious provocation, even if Zhang Yifei himself has no idea.
Among the freshman drivers last year, Hydefield, who transferred from Prost to Sauber, actually performed very well. He ranked sixth in the total score throughout the year, and even beat Zhang Yifei. The only regret is that Hydefield did not win the final championship.
This result made Hydefield highly motivated and prepared to take advantage of the victory in the new season. However, he was overtaken at the beginning, even if rationality told him to calm down, it was justified to find an opportunity to run the fastest lap.
But anger could no longer calm down Hydefield. He stepped on the accelerator and began to chase Zhang Yifei who was overtaking.
But this is just the beginning. After the Singapore track started, the first thing I faced was a long straight line, which could reach 7 gears of 290km/h, and it was also the second highest speed point on the track.
After surpassing Hydefield, Zhang Yifei accelerated with all the throttle, without considering any qualifying matches and directly killed Montoya, who ranked fifth last year.
Although Montoya lost to Zhang Yifei last year, he still significantly ahead of Zhang Yifei in points with the advantage of running the entire season. After starting the qualifying race, he did not directly compete in lap speeds, but instead ran normally and waited for the tire temperature to rise, and then looked for the opportunity to sprint the fastest lap.
After starting, he habitually looked into the rearview mirror and checked the location of Hydefield, the Sauber Racing team behind.
