In the Prost pit stop, even if Zhang Yifei was sitting in the lounge, he could vaguely hear the cheering shouts from time to time on the track.

Even some of the more fanatical fans, despite the dissuasion of the on-site security, desperately crowded towards the stands behind the pit, hoping to see Zhang Yifei up close or say cheer to him.

In a sense, Zhang Yifei is now a real national superstar, surpassing the alliance of Yao Ming and Liu Xiang. Like Liu Xiang, he broke the foreign monopoly on short-board sports, and was much stronger than Yao Ming, and really stood at the top and had the ability to win the championship.

Listening to the shouts of these fans and fans, Zhang Yifei, whose psychological quality is quite terrifying, couldn't help but feel a little excited, and sure enough, the taste of the home stadium is so yearning and intoxicating!

"Is a lap time of 1:31.788 from pole position your limit?"

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

Since the end of qualifying, Alonso has been in shock, and as a teammate, he can't understand why Zhang Yifei can suddenly run such a terrifying lap time, which is not run by the car simulator or the practice race.

If you break through a little, you can still say that you have the potential to explode your form, and it is a full 0.5 seconds faster than the practice match, which is definitely a hidden strength.

The question is, it's normal to hide strength in practice sessions, but inside the team, is the racing simulator training also hiding strength?

What guarantee does Zhang Yifei use to ensure that he will be able to drive this terrifying lap time, with courage and confidence?

Alonso is not a person who can hide words, he can't think of things he understands, so he simply asks the person concerned.

"What do you think?"

Zhang Yifei did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

"Just tell me, you can be faster, but I want to know, how did you do it?"

"Then you're now in control of the Prost AP05 car, how familiar is it?"

It's still a rhetorical question.

"Like a part of my body."

Alonso replied very simply, even if this car is not built specifically for him, but after a year of driving and countless laps on the track, this No. 14 Prost AP05 car is as familiar as a part of Alonso's body.

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

"Then the East China Sea Circuit used to be a part of my body."

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

As an F1 driver, there are 17 tracks to run in this era, and if you run for two or three years, counting the replacement tracks, it may be as high as 23.

Like a later F1 season, there are as many as 21 tracks, and there is even a gradual trend of increasing.

But for Zhang Yifei in his previous life, the Donghai Circuit is the only one in the past two years, driving on this track day after day, year after year, just like a controlled racing car, almost becoming a part of Zhang Yifei's body.

It's just a pity that his talent in his previous life can't be said to be very bad, but it is far from the world's top level. 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 mind have not.

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

Watching Zhang Yifei leave the lounge, Alonso actually didn't know very well that he was once a part of his body, how to explain this sentence?

Zhang Yifei came to the console, and at this moment, the members of the team's strategy team were making final pre-race preparations.

It was supposed to be the heaviest of the finale, but this time it was the easiest event of the season. For example, car tuning, pit stop strategy and other policies, Zhang Yifei has already made decisions early.

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

Therefore, the team's strategy this time is mainly to deal with various accidents, such as car breakdowns, accident damage, and even weather accidents.

"Fly, the East China Sea has been cloudy for the past few days, and the Meteorological Bureau reports that there is a possibility of rain, should the one-stop strategy be changed to two or three stops to prevent possible sudden weather changes and reduce the losses caused by temporary pit stops?"

Compared with the one-stop tactic, the two-stop or three-stop tactic is not so extreme, and the number of pit stops is not so dead, and the maneuverable space is relatively large.

If it rains after a stop, it will completely disrupt the team's plan and waste a stop time.

If you choose two or three stops, even if you encounter weather factors and make a temporary stop, it may be very close to the original pit stop plan, and the impact of a few more laps or a few fewer laps is not great.

Before the team strategy group, they all agreed that the one-stop tactic was the best, after all, Zhang Yifei was the first car, and he could perfectly protect the tire and press the car to ensure his speed and rhythm on the track.

Now that the weather forecasts the possibility of rain, then consider the relatively conservative but safer two-stop and three-stop tactics. The total time may be a little worse, but Zhang Yifei's current lap time is too strong, as long as the race can be maintained, the impact of a few more pit stops will be minimal.

For the team, they don't care about the process, they don't even care about pole position or track records, as long as Zhang Yifei can eventually become the world champion, it will be worth it.

Seeking stability has become the mainstream idea of the team strategy group.

"Kossel, how many stops do you think to take?"

After listening to the team's analysis, Zhang Yifei looked at Kossel, the old German man can always say his inner thoughts most accurately, and he doesn't have to salivate.

"Stop."

Cosell was still very simple and crude.

"Kossel, do you really want to be so aggressive?"

Prost's tone was a little dissatisfied, in fact, he was the main driver of the change in the stop strategy.

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

"It has nothing to do with aggressiveness, if you stop more, are you sure that those teams that stop at one stop won't sacrifice a driver as a wingman?"

When Korcel said this, Prost's face became solemn in an instant, because this tactic had been used by his own team.

At the Monaco Grand Prix, Scuderia Ferrari allowed the lapped Barrichello to block the car in an unsportsmanlike way, and finally kept Schumacher in the lead.

However, Alonso used an extreme late pit stop to block the front of Schumacher who was out of the pit, creating an opportunity for Zhang Yifei to overtake, and finally turned defeat into victory.

This way the Prost team can use it, but won't the Ferrari team use it?

The answer is obvious, Scuderia Ferrari will be more straightforward and decisive, even without even considering Barrichello's final result!

And it's not just Ferrari, Zhang Yifei has a lot of enemies on the track, and it's hard to guarantee that others won't retaliate maliciously. There is also an unspoken rule, that is, other teams and drivers on the track may be amazed or even admired by Zhang Yifei's performance in normal times.

But this world championship title, they definitely don't want Zhang Yifei to get it.

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

The advantage of using the first car in a one-stop tactic, if you steadily press the car and protect the tires, you can minimize the known accidents on the track.

After all, the rain war is something unknown, so should we take such unnecessary risks in advance?

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

In fact, it can't be said that he didn't understand it before, but he has a kind of limitation that the authorities are confused and the bystanders are clear. After all, Prost and Zhang Yifei's interests are completely bound, and from Zhang Yifei's point of view, it is impossible to have any differences in skin color and nationality, or even more serious racial discrimination.

Prost doesn't think so, it doesn't mean that other teams don't, and the British Hamilton in a few years will have no way to avoid it, let alone Zhang Yifei at this time.

"I see, how do you choose to fly?"

Prost nodded and asked Zhang Yifei.

"Stop."

The two words are also very simple, and at the same time, Zhang Yifei and Korsell glanced at each other, and their expressions were very indifferent, as if they had discussed a little in advance.

In fact, Zhang Yifei still has an idea in his heart, that is, this fucking meteorological bureau has cheated itself a few times, and Singapore and Monaco have said that there is a chance of rain, but there is no fart.

Zhang Yifei is actually very clear about the weather in the East China Sea, the autumn and winter seasons themselves are mainly cloudy, with a lot of cumulonimbus clouds. However, when it actually rains a lot, it is during the rainy season in spring and summer.

And Zhang Yifei is very confident that the control of this track has surpassed the time.

Or to put it in a more neutral sentence, that is, man will conquer the sky!

All the tactics and plans are ready, and the time is gradually approaching 10 o'clock in the morning, which is the main time of the East China Sea Grand Prix, and the final battle of the 2001 season!

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

At the beginning, the roar of the Ferrari engine surrounded the ears, like a roaring beast, waiting for its "brother" to have a final showdown.

But when Zhang Yifei rushed out of the pit lane and drove onto the official track, the roar of the Ferrari engine like a beast was suppressed, and the cheers of the whole audience were like thunder.

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

That's right, the 250,000-strong East China Sea Circuit, when everyone shouts a name, this sound can resound through the sky, and the helmet and engine sound can't resist his penetration.

"GOD, I've never heard such crazy shouts on a track, not even the Indianapolis Raceway, which has 300,000 people in the United States."

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

At this time, Brendel was infected by the carnival of the whole stadium, this is the love of the driver, this is the passion for the car.

In fact, what Blundell doesn't know is that there is also the glory of the country, and everyone is looking forward to Zhang Yifei, who can use the title of world champion to prove that Chinese drivers are not weak and Chinese cars are not garbage!

"If there is no if, Fei will definitely be able to hear the cheers of the audience."

Since Li Bing let himself go, he has not had the same sleekness as Tai Chi, and he is even more straightforward than Blundell in many cases.

He believes that Zhang Yifei, who is sitting on the Prost car, can definitely hear the support of the 250,000 colleagues in the audience and feel the expectations of the whole China for him!

"That's what it's called a profession, that's what it's called racing."

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

Why do underground drivers aspire to the profession, in addition to technical factors, only professional events can make them stand in the sun and inspire themselves with honor and dreams.

Now Zhang Yifei has stood in front of the apex of professional racing, as long as he wins this race, he will be crowned king!

"I really didn't expect this kid to be on the verge of becoming a world champion. What's the matter, how does Lao Tzu feel that his nose is sour, this new track is not passing, and there is sand in his eyes! ”

Qin Hong, the captain of the Seven Star Team, sat next to Sun Minghua, and saw Zhang Yifei stopped at the front of the starting stand, listening to the audience shouting his name, his eyes were completely red.

In any case, Zhang Yifei is the pride of Qixingshan and the pride of Chinese racing.

Chinese drivers have never had such cards as they do today, and Qin Hong never knew that he was so easily moved!

"Fly, come on, let's see you become a champion."

In another corner, Xie Tiancheng and Zhou Yunhui rushed back from abroad, silently cheering for Zhang Yifei.

As the farthest and highest among the original group of underground drivers, Zhang Yifei undoubtedly carried their highest expectations for the profession.

On the top of Monaco Mountain, Xie Tiancheng told Zhou Yunhui that he wanted to see Zhang Yifei climb to the top in the East China Sea.

Today is the time for Zhang Yifei to fulfill his promise!

At the same time, in another corner of the track, Wang Glasses looked at Zhang Yifei, who had become the focus of the track, and was deeply happy for him in his heart.

He knew that Zhang Yifei had finally fulfilled his racing dream and was only one step away from the world championship.

In addition, Wang Glasses still has a wordless gratitude in his heart, it is Zhang Yifei who is like a beam of light in his life when he is at his most decadent, rekindling his fighting spirit.

Wang Glasses did not recover Lu Xiaoman, but he became a better version of himself in front of Lu Xiaoman.

It took him one year to complete his application to the University of Southampton in the United Kingdom, and next year he will study in the United Kingdom, majoring in automotive engineering. Even the master's direction has been thought of, that is, racing aerodynamics, and the sub-category specializes in F1 dynamics.

This is also Wang Glasses' promise to Zhang Yifei, he broke his trust once, and this time he will never break his promise again!

As everyone watched, the track lights went out, and the blue and red No. 13 Prost began to sprint to the front, starting without giving any chance to the other drivers.

With the speeding of the car, the ultimate battle of the Tokai Circuit begins!
