700 Master the double-edged sword

However, Zhang Yifei didn't say the doubts in his heart, because greeting himself was just a courtesy, and it didn't mean that he had to do it.

Moreover, the positioning of the No. 2 driver, but the team's resources are different, and it does not mean that Alonso has really become his younger brother, and there is nothing wrong with him not coming.

If it were someone else, such as the previous Alessi, Zhang Yifei would naturally not care. It's just that this guy is Alonso, a time bomb-like existence, of course, you have to keep an eye on it.

After greeting each other, Zhang Yifei went back to the room to put down his luggage, and then went to the restaurant with Brother Ahu Zhi to eat lunch.

At this time, he ran into Alonso's race engineer Cord, and after asking him, he learned that Alonso had been staying in the simulation training room, training with a racing simulator.

To be honest, Zhang Yifei knew that Alonso was not a lazy driver in the future, but he didn't expect that he would be diligent to this extent, is it because of his own stimulating relationship?

So after lunch, Zhang Yifei also went to the simulation training room, and sure enough, he saw Alonso engrossed in simulator training, and the track on the screen was the Singapore track to run this time.

Zhang Yifei did not disturb Alonso, but stood next to him, just like Alessi at the beginning, silently watching him simulator training.

The Singapore circuit, also known as the Marina Bay Street Race, is 5.067KM long and takes 61 laps to complete. The first driver in history to win the Singapore Grand Prix is Alonso, who is sitting next to Zhang Yifei at the moment.

As long as it is a street race, the difficulty is not low, and the narrow width of the track and the complex changes in corners are very difficult for the drivers.

What's more, street races don't have a wide buffer zone like a normal track. If you rush off the track too fast, there are tire cushions where you are lucky, and if you are unlucky enough to encounter a building, it will be directly installed on the concrete wall, so the danger of the street track is relatively high.

Coupled with the fact that the Singapore Grand Prix is a night race, even if 1,600 floodlights are installed on the entire track to ensure the brightness of the illumination, the line of sight cannot compare to that of daytime.

Because the towering fences on both sides of the track protect the drivers and spectators, there will always be shadows, and no matter how much the floodlights increase the brightness, they cannot achieve a surgical level of shadowless lights.

It's easy to get visually tired of the flickering scenes, and the Singapore circuit also has a special layout, that is, after turning 18, the car will pass under a temporary grandstand, which is equivalent to experiencing the feeling of entering a tunnel.

The combination of various difficulties makes the safety car in the history of the Singapore Grand Prix 100% probable, which means that every race is destined to have an accident without any suspense.

This is why, Yamamoto Ukyo, who was in the car before, faced Zhang Yifei's affirmative answer and specially reminded him. Because he knows the difficulty of this track, I'm afraid Schumacher doesn't dare to say that there is no suspense in the race, and Zhang Yifei is a little overconfident.

In fact, this is not that Zhang Yifei is overconfident, the difficulty is that this thing is relative, Zhang Yifei has to face a difficult Singapore track, can other drivers reduce the difficulty level?

And as a brand-new track, it pulls the experience of all drivers to the same level, and everyone has never run, so they rely on simulator training to play, which is an advantage for Zhang Yifei.

On the premise that he has not run before, Zhang Yifei is in another world, and has seen many videos of drivers running the Singapore circuit, including the famous scene of Alonso's debut in Singapore in 08, which is an experience that other drivers do not have.

Of course, there is a more important point, that is, Zhang Yifei has extremely rich experience in street night battles, and he doesn't know how many street night battles he has run in his two lifetimes, and he believes that there is no problem in winning the entire F1 paddock.

Taking into account the advantages of all aspects, the Singapore Grand Prix is simply tailor-made for itself, and even opened a "plug-in". If he doesn't have the confidence to dominate the audience, then Zhang Yifei won't say anything about winning the world championship.

Alonso didn't notice that there was another person next to him, who was taking the simulator car very seriously. Just as Zhang Yifei intends to dominate the track at the Singapore Grand Prix, Alonso is also poised to make a splash in this opener.

He will never be a driver who is willing to live behind, especially during the winter test, he witnessed Zhang Yifei's strength, which made Alonso dare not slack off for a moment.

In a sense, now that Alonso is so diligent, it is indeed Zhang Yifei who has changed him.

Zhang Yifei looked at Alonso's car control on the screen, and the expression on his face was very serious, because Alonso's speed on the Singapore track was really a bit beyond his previous expectations, and there was a feeling of being impressed by the three-day farewell.

Alonso is the first winner of the Singapore Grand Prix, and the winning process is legendary. He started in the fifteenth place, and fell to the bottom of the pit stop in the middle of the way, but finally completed a shocking counterattack and won the championship title.

Although there have been unsportsmanlike means used in this, but in the end, to become a champion, it is impossible to rely on means alone without absolute strength.

Now history has changed, the Singapore Grand Prix appeared six years earlier, but Alonso's strength on this circuit has not changed much, and the championship is still the champion after all!

After one lap, Alonso's lap time was 1:45.870, and when he saw this point in time, Zhang Yifei's face changed slightly.

Because he knows that in 08 years, the fastest lap was the pole position lap time of 1:44.801 run by Massa, and the track record was 1:45.339 run by Alonso.

Although the track simulator is in an absolutely ideal environment, and there is no interference from other cars. But to be able to run this kind of lap time close to the track record, as long as Alonso can maintain his form, it is definitely not far off, and there is even a chance to break it.

Even Zhang Yifei himself, currently running on the track simulator, the fastest lap is less than 0.3 seconds faster than the current speed of Alonso. And Zhang Yifei doesn't know if this is Alonso's fastest lap, it seems that he really underestimates the strength and performance of other F1 drivers.

Alonso saw the final lap time, his face did not change much, and he was ready to reach out and press the reset button for the next lap of training.

But when he moved, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a figure beside him, he subconsciously turned his head to take a look, and soon an unexpected expression appeared on his face.

"Why are you here?"

"I just came back and saw you training, so I didn't bother."

"Oh."

Alonso answered, then turned his head away, ready to continue training.

"I ran a good lap just now, and I was fast enough."

Zhang Yifei opened his mouth to praise it, even in his own training lap time, it can be regarded as an upper middle lap time.

"Not fast enough."

"Really? So how fast do you want to run. ”

"At least faster than you."

Hearing this, the corners of Zhang Yifei's mouth rose slightly, and sure enough, Brother Tou's mouth was still direct.

"You can try, but it's not that simple."

Zhang Yifei thought that when he heard this, Alonso would go down hard, which was in line with his character of not admitting defeat.

As a result, I didn't expect that after hearing this, the head brother actually nodded in agreement: "I know, but I won't give up, I will definitely win you!" ”

There is no doubt that this answer is to put himself in the position of a chaser, and it seems that the winter test track has shown a lot of strength, and it has indeed shocked Alonso at this stage.

"I'm sorry, you can't win."

No politeness, Zhang Yifei replied very strongly, he will never compromise on issues of principle. Especially for people like Alonso, only those who are stronger than him will surrender, otherwise they will wait to kick their noses in the face.

The F1 paddock is actually the law of the jungle, a strong enough driver to treat the No. 2 driver as a pure stepping stone, but Zhang Yifei disdains to do so.

The disdain to do so does not mean that the position of the No. 1 driver can be challenged. Zhang Yifei said that he was confident in suppressing Alonso, and he would not give him any opportunity to provoke him.

Tolerance is just the mercy of the strong, it doesn't mean that Zhang Yifei is a character to be messed with, and grace and power are kings!

Sure enough, when Zhang Yifei said this, Alonso, who was still a little arrogant before, turned his head and continued his practice silently.

After a few months of training, Alonso has long understood that Zhang Yifei only gave him the qualification to challenge, and did not give him any qualification to provoke. It's just that the head brother is this "cancer" urine, and he doesn't open the house for three days, and sometimes he just can't control his mouth.

Alonso, who was later in his prime, had two championships and one runner-up, and had a conflict with Hamilton, who was still a rookie at the time. In the end, McLaren chose a newcomer over a top driver, and you can see how annoying it is.

Regarding Alonso's performance today, Zhang Yifei had a playful smile on his face, what happened today really showed the two sides of Alonso's "double-edged sword" vividly.

gradually began to show the top strength, in terms of the lap speed run by the track simulator, there is a chance to be on the podium and even win the championship, which is also the basis for Zhang Yifei to choose him at the beginning.

At the same time, on the other hand, the strength has come up, and the arrogance in his bones has also come up, and he can't help but start to "fire" himself.

However, it is still the same sentence at the beginning, dare to choose the "double-edged sword", Zhang Yifei has the confidence to control, and in the end Alonso still chooses to endure honestly, he is very satisfied with this performance.

The Singapore Grand Prix, which only appeared in 08 years in history, has long passed the peak of Schumacher and Barrichello.

So Zhang Yifei didn't know how Schumacher and Barrichello would perform on this track at their peak.

On the premise of carrying various advantages, Zhang Yifei is confident that he will beat Schumacher in the opening battle, and now looking at Alonso's lap time, he will at least have the strength to fight with Barrichello.

The competition is not about falling in love, the process is not important, what you see is the result of winning or losing!

At least the current Alonso has met Zhang Yifei's requirements for choosing him, that is, to fight with Barrichello!
