Without too much hesitation, Zhang Yifei saw that Barrichello had an overtaking move, so he directly stepped on the accelerator and went down, and then changed lanes to block in front of Barrichello's car.

This lane change is obvious, Zhang Yifei is planning to fight!

“GOOD！ I was still thinking about whether the Chinese newcomer would dare to respond and counterattack in the face of such a strong provocation by Barrichello in the face of such a strong provocation in Brazil. ”

"Now it seems that Fei really maintained his usual toughness, even in the face of Ferrari driver Barrichello, he did not choose to back down!"

Blundell was really impressed by Zhang Yifei's performance, there have been many young and frivolous drivers on the F1 track, but there are also many people who will choose to endure and retreat when facing really strong opponents.

Now it's just a practice race, the opponent is still from the most powerful Ferrari team at the moment, Zhang Yifei intends to be tough to the end, even if it is placed in the young and frivolous drivers, it is still rare.

Not to mention that before the practice match, Zhang Yifei was also said to have received death threats from Brazilian gangsters, and in the face of such additional pressure, he dared to respond to Barrichello's provocation, which is even more admirable.

But this scene is particularly angry in the eyes of Brazilian commentator Gonzalez.

"The Chinese newcomer really has blind trust in himself, and he thinks that he can't run in the first two races, can he be Barrichello?"

"I'm sorry, we'll see Barrichello run over soon!"

Gonzalez is not like Mohda, who intends to be a global commentator in F1, and will have a good relationship with Blundel.

Even if he doesn't mix with F1 commentary, he can still mix with Indy Series commentary, so he doesn't have to worry about his biased commentary content affecting his future career development.

And then again, what he is saying now is exactly what the audience likes to hear, and his support rate is even higher.

On the track, Barrichello faced Zhang Yifei's lane change and blocked the car, and almost made a reverse lane change in an instant, wanting to overtake Zhang Yifei on the other side.

Barrichello's maneuver in terms of speed and lane change accuracy surpassed the opponents Zhang Yifei faced before, and even his own performance in the rain battle in Malaysia has been greatly improved.

There is no doubt that Barrichello is serious at this moment, and he plans to crush Zhang Yifei at Interlagos Circuit, his home circuit in Brazil, to prove his strength and status in the F1 paddock.

However, Zhang Yifei's reaction is not slow, and the stiffest suspension brings a more stable body posture, and lane changes are more flexible.

Almost when Barrichello was about to seize the overtaking line, Zhang Yifei blocked him behind his car again, and the distance between the two people was shortened to the centimeter level, and they almost collided with each other.

This picture also made the audience in an uproar, and at the same time, emotions also came up. The samba drum beat of "Knock, Knock, Knock" sounded again, and the hot and sexy samba girls also twisted their bodies to cheer on Barrichello's offensive.

At the Prost pit, the team strategy team who saw this scene had a more serious expression on their faces. Because they didn't expect that Barrichello, who was relatively low-key in the outside world, would choose to attack Zhang Yifei in the first game of the practice match so aggressively.

It's not a battle between two rookie drivers in Malaysia, but it's quite rare for a current F1 paddock top driver to provoke a newcomer to the track.

In comparison, Zhang Yifei's tough counterattack was expected by the team members. After all, after getting along for so long, the Chinese kid still has a general understanding of what kind of personality he has, and it is impossible for him to be afraid of Barrichello on the track.

"Mentor, the flying cars are only experimental tuning, and they are not perfect in many aspects. This kind of tough confrontation can go wrong. ”

Yamamoto said to Korser with a worried face, unlike Barrichello, a veteran who has been running the Interlagos circuit for several years, Zhang Yifei is stepping on the Brazilian circuit for the first time today.

Therefore, the tuning can only be based on previous experience, not in line with Zhang Yifei's driving style.

But Barrichello is different, he has been running for so many years, even if there is no tuning for the practice session, the impact is not very great. In order to conserve physical strength, it is even possible to let the test driver run the practice race directly.

This is also what many big teams do, especially familiar tracks do not have to be more energetic by the main drivers, and at the same time, it can also give the test drivers the opportunity to train.

In a sense, Barrichello is doing things in the practice match, which is a bit of stealing chickens and bullying newcomers.

Caser didn't speak, just stared at the track footage that was broadcast, the practice session was not the main race, and there was basically no overly intense clash scene. So now the battle between Zhang Yifei and Barrichello has become a hot scene on the track, and the broadcast camera simply locks on the two of them for a comprehensive live broadcast of the track.

When Henry heard Yamamoto Ukyo's words, he also nodded and said to Coser: "Cosell, it is a bit too much to let Fei and Barrichello have a conflict at this time, and it is very risky. ”

"I think we should give the team an order to fly back to the pits to avoid this conflict."

It was normal to return to the pit during the practice session, so Henry felt that it was the safest plan to let Zhang Yifei come back for rational considerations.

If there is any more accident, the shocking counterattack of the Malaysian station is not so easy to stage. Moreover, the sky in São Paulo has been sunny for the past two days, and there is little hope for another rain battle.

Korcel still didn't respond, he knew in his heart that from a rational point of view, it was indeed the best choice to let Zhang Yifei avoid the edge for the time being.

But not everyone can look at it rationally, the audience will not, the filming media will not, and even Zhang Yifei, who is a bit of a top now, may not be able to understand the team's decision-making.

As soon as the battle started, he chose to surrender and flee, which was not in line with Zhang Yifei's character.

Seeing that Korsell did not respond, a helpless expression appeared on Henry's face, he knew that Korcel's aggressive personality was difficult to make him weak.

And Kossel is the team's chief race engineer, and no one has more command power on the track than Kossel except for owner Prost. As long as he doesn't give instructions to the team, the other members of the team will not point fingers during the race, and can only stand by silently and watch the game.

The team strategy team was in a dilemma, and Zhang Yifei on the track was actually not much better.

He is in the midst of one of the most high-pressure chases since entering Formula Car, but he is the one being chased.

Barrichello is a good green leaf driver, but it also depends on whose green leaf it is, he was at the peak of F1, and Schumacher could stabilize him, and no other top driver dared to say that he was stable against Barrichello.

That's why, Zhang Yifei doesn't like Barrichello's "just bad money" and unconvinced behavior, but agrees with his strength in the F1 paddock.

Now facing Barrichello, who is playing his best, Zhang Yifei begins to feel what it means to be a top driver of the real Big Three team. Whether it is the line alignment, the timing of overtaking, and the pressure of catching up, it is far from being comparable to the second- and third-rate drivers on the track, and the future ace drivers who are still newcomers.

The peak is the peak, not only technically, but also in momentum!

The invisible pressure shrouded Zhang Yifei, and almost all his strength was mobilized, using all his methods to block the car, not giving Barrichello any chance to cut the line.

To be honest, from an objective point of view, Zhang Yifei really doesn't have any advantage in the face of the current Barrichello.

Whether it is track experience and familiarity, or car tuning and performance, or even absolute hard power driving skills, Zhang Yifei can't find a place to lead Barrichello. The only thing he can fight for may be that momentum of not admitting defeat.

The crazy acceleration of the car speed, the bumpy track and the high degree of tension even made Zhang Yifei show a hint of numbness. He could feel his heart pounding, and the pressure was like never before.

And the Interlagos Circuit isn't just rough, it's also steeped in a variety of gradients, giving you the feeling of a rollercoaster ride when you quickly pass through a downhill section.

This sense of vacancy made Zhang Yifei's mind constantly produce false warnings, that the car may have lost its grip, and the wheels are hanging in the air. This kind of false warning makes people have the instinct to avoid danger and survive, and go to brake and slow down.

Now Zhang Yifei finally understands why Interlagos is regarded as one of the least popular circuits by F1 drivers, even far more difficult than Monaco.

It's because of the counterclockwise running line, coupled with this uncomfortable feeling of taking off, that brings a lot of physiological disgust to the drivers. In addition to the difficulty of challenging the track, you also need to overcome your own physical instincts, which is the most uncomfortable part.

This kind of thing can't be felt on a racing simulator, and even if it's put in technology twenty years later, it can't simulate this physiological "fear" feeling.

As Zhang Yifei, who competed in the Interlagos circuit for the first time, he had never experienced it before, so it was more difficult to overcome. And in terms of the degree of adaptation to the track, it is far inferior to Barrichello, who is chasing behind, and the advantage brought by experience and home is too great.

The time and place are favorable, all of them are not on his side, Zhang Yifei does not have the absolute confidence to defeat his opponent for the first time.

He thought that this mentality would only appear at least when facing the car god Schumacher, but he didn't expect that Barrichello, who was at his peak, would be as strong as he could be!
