"I wouldn't choose to work with him!"

Korsell replied in a cold tone.

At that time, McLaren's team, because of Cosell's aggressive style, he participated in the development of tactical strategies, which had a great conflict with Prost's conservative style.

This kind of contradiction in the concept leads to frequent arguments between the two people, and even to the point of incompatibility.

However, these are not big problems, McLaren is a top team, and the strategy team is not Korsell alone, Prost has its own race engineer, at most it ignores Korcel's advice.

The fuse that really broke up between the two was the earth-shattering collision between Senna and Prost that year, because of the unfair judgment of the French chairman of the FIA, Senna lost the drivers' championship title and was revoked from his super driver's license.

At that time, Korcel's personality was even more hot, and he directly confronted Prost, asking him if he deliberately changed lanes and crashed.

Prost later admitted that he was deliberate, but it was impossible to admit it at the time, otherwise his drivers' championship title would be lost, and the credibility of the FIA would be questioned.

This incident made Cosell feel that Prost was despicable, and he was unwilling to work with Prost anymore, and even planned to resign voluntarily.

It's just that later the team chose to side with Senna, so that "Professor" Prost broke directly with the McLaren team and went to the Williams team, and the quarrel and noise between the two people were settled.

But after so many years, Korsell still hasn't changed his personality, and he has the idea that the Tao is different and not conspiratory.

"It's been so many years, Senna has finally reconciled with the professor, what else can't we work with."

"And then again, Prost back then, there was also a reason why he didn't give way, and now that this matter is put in the present, there is really no one right or wrong."

Adenauer explained that Senna and Prost had a lot of trouble back then, but at the Australian station where the professor retired, the two hugged each other, which can be regarded as the end of this grievance.

And at the funeral of Senna's unexpected death, Prost was still one of the coffin bearers, and even the two of them could reconcile, and the conflict between Corell and Prost was nothing

"It's not a gamble, it's a fundamental clash of ideas, and I don't want to fly as a conservative driver."

"What's more, a conservative strategy is definitely not the way F1 is going in the future!"

Indeed, as Korcel said, the next few years will be Ferrari's red dynasty, and Schumacher, although not as radical as Senna, is definitely not associated with conservatism.

Why Prost's four crowns are not as great as Senna's three crowns, there was a reason for Senna's untimely death, if he is still alive, he can definitely break through the number of three crowns.

But the root cause is aggressiveness, pushing the limits of the track and speed, and always on the verge of losing control, these are the soul of a racing driver.

"But you have to understand that Prost is no longer a driver, he is the owner of the team. What style of flying in the future is up to him, and no one can change his mind. ”

"It's just my advice to you, at the moment there are vacancies and opportunities in the F1 team, only Prost, Sauber and Arrow."

"And Prost is the most urgent situation among them, and it is also the most promising, it depends on how you choose."

"Of course, it's too early to say this, the main thing is that you have to fly at the Renault European Championship and run a sweep. Otherwise, even the worst F1 team will not want a mediocre rookie driver. ”

After saying this, Adenauer got into the car, then patted Saul on the shoulder and motioned for him to drive, leaving Korcel alone in place.

Now Adenauer is no longer the Le Mans driver he used to be, he has become the team owner, and his thinking has changed a lot.

Championships and glory are things on the track, and now it's a matter of how to get the car on the F1 track.

Korsell watched Adenauer's car drive away, his mind thinking about the other's words. It's just that he knows Prost better than Adenauer, and knows the other party's stubbornness and persistence.

It's like risking the collapse of a fleet and choosing a Peugeot engine to build a team that is entirely French.

Personality is the most difficult thing to change in this life, if he can, he would prefer Zhang Yifei to be the next Senna rather than the next Prost.

Zhang Yifei didn't know that there were so many stories that happened after Cosell left, and he was still sitting in the conference room, reading books about aerodynamics.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, the door of the conference room was pushed open again, and it was Yakyo Yamamoto and they returned.

"Why is it so late today?"

Zhang Yifei saw Ah Hu and them, and asked suspiciously, for them, even if it is to change the brake calipers, plus the four-wheel alignment and adjustment, it should not take so long.

"In the process of changing the calipers, we found a crack on the air package, I don't know if this crack was caused by a collision, or because of a track accident, it was hit by debris, so in order to avoid hidden dangers, the entire inspection car was completely overhauled."

Zhang Yifei recalled the crack, and couldn't remember how it was caused, could it be that he was in the car when he warmed up the tire lap, and he ran into Madu's car

Zhang Yifei can't remember this kind of thing himself, anyway, Yamamoto Right Kyoto has been overhauled, so he didn't continue to dwell on it, but said to Junko Takeda: "Junzi, the owner of the F3000 team came to me today, intending to let me go over to be a test driver, but I refused." ”

Zhang Yifei didn't plan to hide it from Junko Takeda. Because in a sense, their relationship has gone beyond the previous simple workplace relationship, but has become friends.

And taking a step back, the contract of the youth driver is not the kind of official driver contract, but a disguised student contract.

In fact, Zhang Yifei wants to change jobs, at most he will pay the cost of Toyota's youth training, and the sponsorship will be cancelled, and there will be no high transfer fees and liquidated damages.

This is not a big price for the pick-up team, and if Toyota doesn't want to tear its face, or has other commercial cooperation with the pick-up team, it can even release people directly.

The youth drivers themselves are destined to leave.

Zhang Yifei can't stay at Toyota forever as an academy driver, so Junko Takeda is not very surprised.

She asked rhetorically, "Why refuse?"

"Because I want to get into F1."

Hearing this answer, Junko Takeda smiled at the corner of her mouth, if it had been a few months ago, she would have thought it was a fantasy.

But now seeing Zhang Yifei's progress and strength, there may also be some brainwashing elements in Koser, she feels that Zhang Yifei's entry into F1 does not seem to be an unattainable thing.

"Phineas, how long will it take for you to get into F1?"

Ah Hu stood next to him at this time, tilted his head and asked.

He knows that F1 is the best group of drivers in the world, so he wants to know when Fei Ge can become the most powerful person.

"Do you think I'm like a fairy?"

"Hehe, Brother Fei, do you want to brag that you are a car god again?"

Ah Hu was completely mistaken, and thought that Zhang Yifei was going to brag about his title of Seven Star Mountain Bike God again.

"Ah Hu, I've been feeling that it's been very difficult to communicate with you lately!"

"I mean, I'm not an immortal, how do I know when I'll be able to enter F1"

Zhang Yifei replied helplessly.

"Oh, so Fei Ge you want to say you don't know."

"But Brother Fei, you will speak more directly in the future, don't beat around the bush, you don't know that my brain is not good, I have heard you speak more English recently, and I feel more stupid."

"That's because you use your brain less, and you will use it more in the future!"

Zhang Yifei was simply speechless by Ah Hu, this kid sometimes looks like a living treasure.

"Okay, it's not early today, tomorrow is the main game, let's rest early."

Zhang Yifei closed the book and stood up, it was already past nine o'clock, and there was still a tough battle to be fought tomorrow.

……

On Sunday, August 3rd, at 3 p.m., the Monza circuit was not as hot as usual, but rather cool.

Because after the afternoon gale, it finally rained heavily in Heidelberg last night, and it didn't stop until this morning.

The heavy rain washed away the summer heat, but it also bothered many drivers today, namely the dampness of the Hockenheimring, especially in some sections of the boulevard, and the faint standing water.

There are two main types of wet tires in formula cars, the first is the green label ordinary wet tire, which has a light pattern on the surface of the tire to improve drainage, and is suitable for when the track is slippery but there is no water accumulation.

That is to say, the scope of use is also a little rainy, and the ground is semi-dry and semi-wet in the track environment.

The other is all-rain tires, which have deep lines on the surface of the tire, a bit like the pattern of ordinary tires.

These tyres are the slowest of all the tyre types in Formula Car, but they also have the best drainage. It can cope with heavy rain and the road surface has a certain amount of water accumulation in the track environment, and all are called heavy rain tires.

Under normal circumstances, the frequency of use of all-wet tyres is very low, because in case of heavy rain or heavy rain, the F1 race organization will choose to suspend the race in order to ensure the safety of the drivers.

Because in this harsh environment, even if it is forced to race, the speed of all the cars will slow down, and it will become as boring as a racing track, and there will be no such speed and passion.

After all, scenes like the Senna rain battle are still difficult to see in F1, and it is precisely because of their rarity that they are particularly precious.

Now this problem is also in front of Zhang Yifei, the sky is not raining, but there is a slight water accumulation on the track, whether to choose faster wet tires or safer full rain tires

I didn't expect that before I entered F1, I began to encounter the choice of tyres.

For these doubts, the best person to ask is of course Kossel, who is a member of the F1 strategy team, and you must know that tire selection is the biggest tactical strategy in F1.

"Kossel, do you choose wet tires or all-rain tires for this race?"

"Wet tire."

Kossel replied simply.

"Is it because wet tires are more suitable for the current track environment, and it is also said that the slight water accumulation on the boulevard is not enough to affect the drainage of wet tires, or that Hockenheim has such historical data"

Zhang Yifei thought about a lot of possibilities and wanted to get a more detailed answer from Kossel.

"Neither."

"That's because of what"

"Wet tires run fast."
