Watching Zhang Yifei finally roar past the 130R bend, Korsell let go of his clenched fist. For a moment now, he even wondered if his strategy was wrong, and being too tough would cause Zhang Yifei to rush off the track.

It can only be said that the result was lucky, the kid still managed to stabilize the car, overtaking Kimi Raikkonen in a very extreme way to move up to fifth place.

It's thrilling!

Even Kossel, who has always been known for being aggressive, couldn't help but use these three words in his heart to define Zhang Yifei's overtaking action just now.

In a sense, Kossel underestimated the strength of the Finnish driver Kimi, treating him as an ordinary rookie, thinking that Zhang Yifei had enough to surpass him in two laps.

It can only be said that the final performance of the Finnish successor exceeded Koser's expectations, and the defense was in place. Even if Zhang Yifei can stabilize the car in the end, he has a certain element of luck, and he does take it for granted and underestimate his opponent.

But Caser never regrets the past, even if Zhang Yifei had an accident, which is a fate that a professional driver should accept calmly. When choosing a car that is on the edge of the limit, it's a process that you have to go through.

Zhang Yifei on the track, his heart was also beating violently at this moment, this overtaking just now was comparable to the crazy sprint to the Grim Reaper at the last stop of the United States Grand Prix!

Although it is not the same in terms of danger, it is faster than that, and the temporary reaction control is more complicated, and he also dodges a possible collision with Kimi Raikkonen.

To be honest, Zhang Yifei himself feels lucky, those controls and choices just now, a little mistake, maybe this race will end at the 130R corner, and he will rush out of the track like Kimi Raikkonen.

Even if the consequences are more serious, he will have a tragic collision with Kimi, crashing together at a speed of up to 300km/h, and no frame strength can stop it, and whether the car will be destroyed depends on luck.

However, this mood was afraid, Zhang Yifei only lasted a few seconds, immediately calmed down his mood, and began to sprint towards Ralph Schumacher further ahead. When the time comes, he will be able to join up with his team-mate Alesi and once again play alongside Prost!

"Ralph, McLaren's Kimi has been overtaken, I guess he'll pit once before attacking you, you're going to have to take your chance."

Sir Williams' voice rang out, and he expected Zhang Yifei's third pit stop to be in the next two laps, and it was likely that he would pit after completely getting rid of Kimi Raikkonen.

So Ralph Schumacher has to use this last point in time to launch a general attack on Alessi, otherwise Sir Williams is not optimistic that Schumacher Jr. will defend two Prost drivers next.

"I know."

Ralph Schumacher responded, in fact, it is not that he does not want to surpass the French veteran Alessi in front of him, but he is frequently blocked, and he can't surpass it!

The team's mission and the excitement of Zhang Yifei's performance made Alessi burst out with infinite fighting spirit at the moment, and took the podium as his ultimate goal.

For the sake of the Prost team, for the sake of his own honor, this time Alessi wants to perform the miracle of the Austrian Grand Prix again!

So in any case, he will not give Ralph Schumacher any chance to overtake, maybe the French veteran attack is not strong enough now, but the defensive experience is still here, and it is not so good to surpass it seriously.

Just as Sir Williams predicted, after surpassing Kimi Raikkonen, Zhang Yifei used super soft tires and light fuel to start his lap time frantically.

He had to throw Kimi far enough away to make up for the time lost during the pit stop. At the same time, Zhang Yifei also began to be anxious in his heart, the car has come to the forty-second lap, and there are only ten laps left after leaving the station, how can he surpass the first three first-class opponents?

The reason why the miracle is amazing is that it is difficult to achieve, Zhang Yifei feels that he has achieved perfection in the whole game, but he still has not seen the dawn of victory.

Forty-two laps into the pit stop, the members of the Prost crew also increased their speed like crazy, and had to ensure that the entire tire change time was compressed into two seconds.

You must know that this kind of tire change speed is already the limit of the time to stop in this era, and with this crazy speed, the error rate will show a geometric increase. In order to ensure that there are no mistakes, many teams will specially relax the time limit of a few tenths of a second to one second for the technician team, but today's Prost team does not have this relaxation option!

Fast! Fast! Fast!

Every team technician has only this thought in their minds, and they know what it means for Zhang Yifei to be in fifth place.

It means that a miracle counterattack that was once unthinkable may be staged in the final battle of Japan. Every millisecond that is won now increases the chances of a miracle by one point.

Now it's not a one-man battle, it's a whole team working for crazy dreams.

"Skuyi (awesome), what a fast tire change!"

Ito Yuo saw that Zhang Yifei had almost just parked in the parking space, and rushed out of the pit station in a blink of an eye, and couldn't help but sigh at the speed of Prost technician.

You must know that unlike the triumvirate team, the Prost team is simply Zhang Yifei famous, and not many people regard the whole team as a strong team, and even Alessi, the second driver, is ignored most of the time.

But judging from the tire change time and cooperation just now, this inconspicuous team may not be worse than those big teams in terms of technician quality. At least at the top level, at the top level.

"The Prost team is actually profound, and they are quite low-key and pragmatic, it is said that even during the interval between races, they often practice pit stop hundreds of times."

Blundell opened his mouth to explain, as a senior commentator, he knows a lot about the history of the Prost team. Just because it's obscure, you can't deny the history, counting the Ligier team, which has been competing in F1 since 1976, the history of Prost is close to 25 years.

Suffice it to say, the vast majority of teams on the track, including Williams, don't have as long as Captain Prost.

After all, Prost is a private driver, not a manufacturer, and has accepted and inherited the Ligier team, just by changing the name.

And as far as Blundell knows, with the overall improvement of the team's performance and the infection of Zhang Yifei's fighting spirit, the cooperation of the technician team is also quite crazy.

During the races, they often push the car into the team and then practice their pit stops. After changing the tyres or refueling, the car is pushed back to simulate the driver's pit stop again.

Therefore, it is not for nothing that the members of the Prost crew can achieve such speed and accuracy today, and they have also put in sweat and hard work behind their backs.

"Really? That reminds me of an old Chinese saying, God rewards hard work. ”

Ito Yuo still has some research on Chinese culture, to be precise, the Japanese upper class is not unfamiliar with Chinese culture, and the higher the level, the more familiar they are.

Now it seems that behind any out-of-the-box birth, there is indispensable hardship of hard work.

After the pit stop, Zhang Yifei was stuck in front of Kimi Raikkonen, and soon took advantage of the new tires, leaving the Finnish Iceman behind, and not giving him any chance to eat the wake and rush up to fight.

Now that Zhang Yifei's time is very urgent, with only the last ten laps left, it should not be a problem to get Ralph Schumacher. But the last two boss-level drivers, the Ferrari golden combination is not so easy to break through.

Moreover, the Ferrari strategy team is quite tough, and it can directly give up Barrichello when necessary, making him completely a sacrificial wingman to block the car, and it is more difficult for Zhang Yifei to surpass it.

Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven!

Zhang Yifei stepped on the accelerator and sighed the whole game with these six words. I have really reached the limit, as for whether I can defeat the Ferrari duo in the end, it depends on destiny!

The race came to lap 44, and in front of Zhang Yifei, there was a blue and white Williams "Sabertooth Tiger" car. In the two laps after the pit stop, with the super-soft tires with the best grip on the track at the moment, Zhang Yifei simply increased his speed to the extreme, and only in a short period of time did he catch up with Ralph Schumacher.

Of course, in addition to Zhang Yifei's speed, there is also the credit of Alessi. His crazy blocking of the line Schumacher also created an opportunity for Zhang Yifei to catch up, otherwise he would not have come to the rear of the Williams car so soon.

"Hey, Ralph is not as good as his brother Michael after all."

Sir Williams in the pit station sighed, he thought that it would not be a problem for Schumacher Jr. to overtake Alessi, but he didn't expect Zhang Yifei to catch up.

Now that Ralph Schumacher is facing two Prost cars in front and back, the outcome is almost doomed, and he has finally let himself down a bit.

Simmonds looked at Sir Williams' disappointment and said a word of comfort: "Actually, Raffle has performed very well all season, winning two championships, and is currently fourth in points. ”

"You can't hold Michael to his standards, and there are very few people in the entire history of F1 who can match Michael's level. Especially at the same time, there was no room for two Schumacher on the track. ”

Listening to Simmonds's words, why didn't Sir Williams understand the truth?

But as Michael Schumacher's younger brother, Ralph is destined to suffer a different level of attention and expectations.

Either surpass the elder brother, or you will always be the younger brother who is not angry!
