400 Emotions from above (Chapter 1)

"Is Zhang Yifei planning to fight back?"

"It seems like yes, I've seen the early hard-line attitude in Europe before, and then it's a lot more low-key, and it seems that he was really provoked by Alex."

"But I don't think Yang Long deserves to be Zhang Yifei's opponent, he doesn't have the identity of an official driver, so he can only stand outside the track paddock and watch the battle."

"Yes, no, but it doesn't mean that you have been provoked and there is no response."

After speaking, the spectator pointed to the camp of the Malay spectators in the distance and said: "Did you see the provocation of those monkeys, if you don't give some color, it won't be the arrogant and arrogant driver on the track who flies!" ”

This sentence made Zhang Yifei's Chinese fans excited, and many people have seen the report that Zhang Yifei crushed Xiong Long in the winter test.

But because there is no video, everyone doesn't know what the crushing process is. Today on the Sepang Circuit, the home of Malaysia, waiting for Zhang Yifei to repeat that scene!

On the track, the JS53 car, with the rev limit turned on, began to squeeze the full potential of the engine and burst out with more powerful performance.

In the same gear, the engine speed is nearly 1,000 rpm higher than the previous tuning. High rpm results in stronger torque explosion and faster acceleration. So Zhang Yifei stepped on the accelerator, and because of hesitation to talk to the team and other factors, the distance that was pulled away by Xiong Long began to shorten rapidly.

Xiong Long looked at Zhang Yifei, who was starting to speed up in the rearview mirror, and his face showed a hideous excitement.

He has been waiting for this day for a long time, since he was defeated by Zhang Yifei on the winter test track, he has always thought of a chance to defeat the other party and prove his strength.

But Yang Long had to admit that Zhang Yifei's strength was beyond his imagination, and the average lap time on the normal track was at least one second faster than himself. The last stop of the Australian Grand Prix once again verified Zhang Yifei's strong strength, and he got points on his debut, which was the first Asian driver in history!

The difference in strength made Xiong Long feel very uncomfortable, and coupled with the instigation of the boss's son Hank, the short-tempered Yang Long was even more painful.

It was too difficult to beat Zhang Yifei on the regular track, but there was a track that gave Yang Long a lot of confidence. This track is Malaysia's Sepang Circuit, which is also the home circuit of Yoong Long.

Sepang is a new circuit that has only been open for two years and many of the racing routes have not been optimised. More importantly, compared with other unfamiliar drivers, as well as Zhang Yifei, who has never run at all, Yang Long is too familiar with the Sepang track.

At the time of the construction of the Sepang circuit, he was one of the junior test drivers of the racing car and had a lot of communication with the designer Herman Türk. Not to mention that after the construction was completed, the Sepang Circuit became Xiong Long's training ground, and the track that was unfamiliar to others was extremely familiar to Xiong Long!

But to be honest, even so, Zhang Yifei's strength still caused a lot of psychological pressure on Xiong Long, and he still didn't have 100% confidence in defeating his opponent.

As a result, at this time, it began to rain on the Sepang circuit, and Xiong Long couldn't believe that God was helping him.

You must know that the Sepang circuit often receives heavy rains, and it is one of the few tracks in the overseas station of the event where you can experience rain battles. The home driver Yang Long naturally experienced many rain battles during the training process.

It can be said that the Sepang circuit gave Xiong Long a home advantage, so the Sepang circuit in the rain, even if it is a tiger with wings for Xiong Long, he doesn't know how to lose!

In the practice round, Boss Minardi let Yang Long appear in order to curry favor with the Malay audience, which gave him a chance to take revenge.

So when Zhang Yifei came out of the maintenance channel, he overtook very strongly, planning to compete with Zhang Yifei again.

As a result, I didn't expect that the Chinese boy, who has always been very arrogant and arrogant, actually coaxed at this time!

Zhang Yifei didn't fight back, or even respond, which once made Xiong Long wonder if his provocation was not strong enough, and Zhang Yifei didn't feel his intention to compete?

With this mentality, Xiong Long could only drive hard, and at the same time, in the voice of the team, there were also various hints from Ma Du, making him try to provoke Zhang Yifei again.

The practice session and the Sepang circuit in the rain may be the only chance for third driver Yang Long, and if he misses this opportunity, he doesn't know how long he will have to wait for the next time he wants to face Zhang Yifei.

With this mentality that can't be missed, and Zhang Yifei's technical test lap speed is really slow, it finally made Xiong Long wait for a chance to set the lap again.

On the 22-meter-wide straight, this time Yang Long chose to get very close to Zhang Yifei, and the distance between the two cars has been close to 10 centimeters recently. You know, from the audience, this distance is almost like two cars about to collide together.

And it's also on a track on a rainy day, and at high speeds, there is also the attraction of air flow, similar to the principle of safety lines next to train tracks. At the slightest mishandling, the two cars will definitely collide together.

Xiong Long's completely provocative move could be felt by the audience in the stands, and he didn't believe that Zhang Yifei hadn't made any moves.

If there is no response to this, then any arrogant and arrogant image is just an illusion of Zhang Yifei, he is just a cowardice who is strong on the outside!

Facts have proved that Zhang Yifei still did not disappoint Yang Long too much, the blue Prost racing car that was getting closer and closer in the rearview mirror made Xiong Long feel that the blood in his whole body began to surge, and he finally had the opportunity to respond to Zhang Yifei's "contempt" today!

Although Minardi's racing performance is at the bottom, it still belongs to the same state as the "Earth Group". And on the track in rainy weather, performance is not the decisive factor in many cases, but more depends on the absolute strength of the driver.

At the same time, the rev limit of the Minardi car was also opened, and Yang Long did not care about this. After all, he is only the third driver, and he doesn't have a chance to play in the race, so there is no such thing as starting from the pits.

The design of the Sepang circuit is very distinctive, with two long straights formed into a V-shape, and then a circle around this V-shape, which is the various corners of the Sepang circuit.

The track was designed by the famous German architect Hermann Türk, who later designed the more perfect Tokai International Circuit. Even further back, the Bahrain Circuit, the Istanbul Circuit, and so on, were built with the support of Hermann Türk.

To put it mildly, this German engineer is the father of the Asian F1 circuit.

Yang Long's speed began to soar, and under the V-shaped long straight, he was already hooked up to 7th gear at 290km/h. It is important to know that the speed of the long straight is generally in the early 300s on a sunny day, and the speed is reduced to 270km/h on a rainy day.

Now the speed of Yang Long has exceeded the zero threshold of the track in rainy days, and it is easy to lose control due to lack of grip. The problem is that the dragon is still in constant acceleration, and it can be expected that the speed will be extremely close to 300km/h at the end of the long straight, or even break 300km/h!

If Xiong Long's speed is already amazing, then now Zhang Yifei's actions can be described as terrifying.

On the display screen of the team's P room, the speed transmitted by the racing car sensor, Zhang Yifei has reached 310km/h at the moment!

At this speed, on the Sepang circuit on rainy days, there is no longer any stability guarantee, whether there will be an accident, and even the driver's skill is no longer looked at, but the face.

If you encounter water accumulation on a low-lying section of the track, you may be speeding past at such a high speed, and the tire will be "suspended" in an instant. When the time comes, whether you will rush off the track, or slip and spin around the track, or more seriously roll over, will be left to your fate.

"Cosell, are you overtalking, Fei is still a young man, he obviously can't control his emotions!"

Prost is not a traditional team investor, he is a driver turned, and four championship titles make him say that he is second in experience at the team manager level, and no one dares to say first.

It's just that now it's the boss, and there are many times when business cooperates, so I don't necessarily follow the team to participate in the event. So many times, Prost will not interfere with Korcel's track instructions, believing in his ability as the chief race engineer.

But the current scene made him feel a little out of control!

Young people are enthusiastic, motivated, passionate, etc., all of which are advantages. It was also Zhang Yifei's addition that changed Prost's previous twilight "dead air".

Young people have many advantages, and the disadvantages are also obvious, and the most common one is naturally the top. At this point, many Japanese drivers who have entered F1 are basically synonymous with stunned youth.

I heard that Yang Long is also a relatively irritable player, and now Zhang Yifei is on top, can it be said that under the gentle appearance of the Asian driver, there is a suppressed wildness?

"I'm sure he can control it."

Korsell responded indifferently, from the contact with Formula Renault, there is already enough tacit understanding between him and Zhang Yifei.

Zhang Yifei will be the leader, but he will definitely not lose control, which Corer has full confidence in.

"But at his current speed, you should know that you can't step on the brakes in the rain when you get through the V-bend at the end of the straight."

"I know, and Fei knows too!"

Corer replied forcefully, he knew Prost's character very well, as long as it was not a race for the championship, these moves seemed to him to be meaningless adventures.

Even for Prost, the "professor" at his peak, F1 racing is not about speed and furious, but about speed and calculation!

Passion will affect his judgment, as long as he can win the championship steadily, even if he can take a little risk to win the championship in one more station and create one more track record, Prost will not do it, he is an absolute racing machine!
