At the Prost maintenance station, even if Zhang Yifei sat in the lounge, he could vaguely hear the cheers coming from time to time on the track.

Some of the more fanatical car fans, regardless of the on-site security dissuasion, tried desperately to crowd the stands behind the repair station, hoping to look at Zhang Yifei up close or say cheers to him.

In a sense, Zhang Yifei is now a real national superstar, surpassing the consortium of Yao Ming and Liu Xiang. He not only broke the foreign monopoly on short-term sports like Liu Xiang, but also much stronger than Yao Ming, and truly stood at the peak and had the ability to win the championship.

Listening to the shouts of these car fans and fans, Zhang Yifei, whose psychological quality is quite terrifying, couldn't help but feel a little excited. As expected, the smell of the home court is so desirable and intoxicating!

"Is the lap speed of 1 minute 31 seconds 788 at the pole position, your limit?"

Alonso, who was also sitting in the lounge, hesitated for a long time and finally asked this sentence.

Since the qualifying race, Alonso has been in shock. As a teammate, he couldn't understand why Zhang Yifei could suddenly run such a terrifying lap. This was something that neither the racing simulator nor the practice race had been running out.

If you break through a little, you can also say that you have exploded your potential in your state, which is 0.5 seconds faster than the practice match, which is definitely hiding your strength.

The problem is that it is normal for practice competitions to hide strength, but within the team, is the racing simulator training also hiding strength?

Then what guarantee does Zhang Yifei use to ensure that he can drive such a terrifying lap, with courage and confidence?

Alonso was not a person who could hide his words. He simply asked the person involved about something he couldn't understand.

"What do you think?"

Zhang Yifei did not answer directly, but asked back.

"Tell me directly that you can be faster, but I just want to know, how did you do it?"

"Then how familiar is you feel when you control the Prost Ap05 racing car now?"

Still a rhetorical question.

"As a part of my body."

Alonso replied simply, even though this car was not built specifically for him, after driving in a year, he ran countless laps on the track. This No. 14 Prost AAP05 car is as familiar as part of Alonso's body.

The so-called unity of car and man is this state.

"The East China Sea track was once a part of my body."

After Zhang Yifei said this, he stood up, pushed open the door of the lounge, and walked towards the console in front of the repair station.

As an F1 driver, this era has to run 17 tracks in the season. If you run for two or three years, it is possible that there will be as many as twenty-three tracks to be replaced.

Like in the later F1 season, there were as many as 21 tracks, and there was even a trend of gradually increasing.

But for Zhang Yifei in his previous life, the East China Sea track was the only one in two years. Day after day, year after year, driving on this track is like a controlled car, almost becoming a part of Zhang Yifei's body.

It’s just a pity that his talent in his previous life could not be said to be very poor, but he was far from the top of the world. He finally reached the point of going abroad, but because of a racing accident, he came to this world and became a Formula driver.

History has changed, the body has changed, but the soul and thinking have not changed.

This East China Sea track will never be erased in Zhang Yifei's memory and has been completely integrated into the body, or the soul!

Seeing Zhang Yifei leave the lounge, Alonso didn't really know very well. He was once a part of his body. How should this sentence be explained?

Zhang Yifei came to the console. At this moment, the team's strategy team members were in progressing their final pre-race preparations.

It should have been the heaviest final battle with the heaviest task, but this time it became the easiest event of the entire season. Zhang Yifei had already made a decision early on for racing adjustments, entry strategies and other policies.

And after the lap, Zhang Yifei showed absolute dominance, not even a decent opponent, and he didn't know who he should target if he wanted to target.

Therefore, this time the team strategy is mainly about various unexpected response plans, such as racing failures, accident damage, or even weather accidents.

"Flying, the East China Sea has been cloudy these days, and the Meteorological Bureau reported that there may be rainfall. Should the first stop strategy be changed to second stop or third stop to prevent possible weather changes and reduce the losses caused by temporary entry into the station?"

Compared with the first stop tactic, the second stop or third stop tactics are not that extreme in protecting the tire, and it is not so dead for those who enter the station to count cards, and the operational space is relatively large.

If it rains after entering the station after a stop-off tactic, it will completely disrupt the convoy plan and waste a stop-off time.

If you choose to stop two or three, even if you encounter weather factors and temporarily stop the station, it may be very close to the original plan of entering the station. The impact of a few more laps or less laps is actually not great.

Previously, the team strategy teams all agreed that the first stop tactic is the best. After all, Zhang Yifei is the first car, and can protect the tires and press the car the most perfectly to ensure the speed and rhythm on the track.

Now the weather forecast is likely to rain, so you can consider the relatively conservative but safer second stop and third stop tactics. The total time may be a little worse, but Zhang Yifei's lap speed is really too strong now. As long as the main race can be maintained, the impact of a few more entry points will be minimal.

For the team, they don’t care about the process, or even the pole position or track record. As long as Zhang Yifei eventually becomes the world champion, it’s all worth it.

Looking for stability has become the mainstream idea of ​​the team strategy group.

"Cosell, what kind of ceasefire do you think?"

After listening to the convoy's analysis, Zhang Yifei looked at Kossel. The old German man could always express his inner thoughts the most accurately, and he didn't have to saliva.

"One stop."

Cosel is still very simple and crude.

"Cosell, are you really going to be so radical?"

Prost's tone was a little dissatisfied. In fact, he was the main driver of changing the stoppage strategy.

After all, he doesn't want Zhang Yifei to take any unexpected risks. It doesn't matter if he is slower, as long as he can win the championship safely.

"It has nothing to do with radicalism. If there are more stopping tactics, are you sure that those stopping convoys will not sacrifice a driver as a wingman?"

When Cosell said this, Prost's face became solemn, because this tactic was used by his own team.

At the Monaco Grand Prix, Ferrari team let Barrichello, who was squirted, block the car in a way that violated sports ethics, and finally kept Schumacher ahead.

However, Alonso entered the station at the extreme late stage and stood in front of Schumacher who was leaving the station, creating an opportunity for Zhang Yifei to overtake and eventually turn defeat into victory.

This method can be used by the Prost team, but can't Ferrari team use it?

The answer is obvious. Ferrari will use it more simply and decisively, and even without considering Barrichello's final results at all!

And it's not just the Ferrari team, Zhang Yifei has many enemies on the track, so it's hard to guarantee that others will not retaliate maliciously. There is another unspoken rule, that is, other teams and drivers on the track may be amazed or even admired by Zhang Yifei's performance during normal times.

But they definitely don’t want Zhang Yifei to win the title of world championship.

The reason is very simple. Zhang Yifei is a yellow man, just like Hamilton in later generations, who is a black man.

The advantage of using the first car with a stop tactic, if the car is steadily pressed and maintained, the known accidents on the track can be minimized.

After all, the rain war is an unknown thing. Should we take such unnecessary risks in advance?

After listening to Cosel's explanation, Prost quickly understood this truth.

In fact, it cannot be said that he did not understand before, but that there is a limitation of being confused by the authorities and being clear by the bystanders. After all, the interests of Prost and Zhang Yifei are completely bound together. From Zhang Yifei's perspective, it is impossible to have any difference in skin color and nationality, or even more serious racial discrimination.

Prost would not think so, it does not mean that other teams did not have one. Hamilton, a few years later, could not avoid it, let alone Zhang Yifei at this time.

"I understand, how do you choose yourself?"

Prosty nodded and asked Zhang Yifei.

"One stop."

Two simple words, Zhang Yifei and Cosel looked at each other, and their expressions were very calm, as if they had discussed it a little in advance.

In fact, Zhang Yifei had another idea in his mind, that is, this fucked Meteorological Bureau had cheated him several times. Both Singapore and Monaco tracks said that there was a chance of rainfall, but there was no one in the way.

Zhang Yifei is actually very clear about the weather in the East China Sea. The autumn and winter are mainly cloudy and there are many cumulonimbus clouds. But when it rains a lot, it is still in the plum rainy season in spring and summer.

Moreover, Zhang Yifei is very confident that his control over this track has surpassed the times.

Or to describe it in a more secondary and secondary sentence, that is, man conquers nature!

All the tactics and plans are ready, and the time is gradually coming to 10 o'clock in the morning. This is the main competition time of the East China Sea Grand Prix and the ultimate battle of the 2001 season!

With all the encouragement and expectations of the team idioms, Zhang Yifei pushed off his helmet mask, drove the No. 13 Prost car and headed towards the starting space on the track.

At the beginning, the sound of the Ferrari engine was roaring, waiting for the final showdown with its "sex brothers".

But when Zhang Yifei rushed out of the maintenance passage and drove onto the official track, the roar of the Ferrari engine like a beast was suppressed, and the sound of cheering like thunder came from his ears.

"Zhang Yifei~~Come on! Zhang Yifei~~Come on! Zhang Yifei~~Come on!"

That's right, when everyone shouted a name in the East China Sea track of 250,000 people, this sound could resound throughout the sky, and neither the helmet nor the engine could resist his penetration.

"God, I've never heard such crazy shouting sounds on a track that even the 300,000-person Indianapolis track in the United States can't do it."

"I believe that if Fei could hear the shouts and cheers from the audience, he would definitely think that this was the proudest moment in his career!"

Brendel was infected by the carnival throughout the audience at this time. This is his love for the drivers and his passion for racing.

In fact, what Brendel didn’t know was that there was also glory for the country. Everyone was looking forward to Zhang Yifei, who could use the title of world championship to prove that Chinese drivers are not weak, and Chinese racing is not garbage!

"If it doesn't happen, Fei will definitely hear the cheers from the audience."

Since Li Bing let himself go, he has no longer had the smoothness of playing Tai Chi at the beginning, and it is even more straightforward and clearer than Brendel in many cases.

He believed that Zhang Yifei, who was sitting in the Prost car, could definitely hear the support of the 250,000 comrades in the audience, and feel the expectations of the entire China for him!

"This is called profession, this is called racing."

In the stands, Sun Minghua, the captain of the Hong Kong Island Killer Queen driver, couldn't help but sigh when he saw Zhang Yifei enjoying the glory of the whole audience.

Why do underground drivers yearn for a profession? In addition to technical factors, only professional events can allow them to stand in the sun and use honors and dreams to inspire themselves to keep moving forward.

Now Zhang Yifei is standing in front of the top of professional racing. As long as he wins this game, he will be crowned king!

"I really didn't expect this kid to be about to become a world champion. How come my nose feels sour? This new track is not up to standard, and sand is in my eyes!"

Qin Hong, the captain of the Seven-Star Convoy, sat next to Sun Minghua and saw Zhang Yifei parked in the front departure space. Hearing the audience shouting his name, his eyes were completely red.
