Chapter 291: Making Trouble

On May 10th, the weather was clear and the weather was pleasant, which was very suitable for the competition. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Formula 1 really has an extraordinary popularity in the European base camp, and there are a lot of spectators at the scene, but more spectators do not sit in the fixed stands, they prefer to find a lawn, take a casual trip, and eat some food brought by themselves, just like a picnic.

For Europeans, watching an F1 race on the weekend is really like going out for a picnic, a relaxing time with the family, of course, finding a grassy area to sit lazily, soak up the sun and breathe in the aroma of the earth, rather than sitting in the crowded stands and immobile like a sardine can.

The outside temperature is 25 degrees Celsius, but the track temperature has exceeded 40 degrees Celsius, and the front drivers all start on soft tires, which can make the soft tires work quickly.

Barrichello, who started third, was behind Zhang Guan, who used Zhang Guan's wake to overtake Vettel and rush to second place, while the unexpected fourth-place Ferrari Massa also overtook Vettel to move into third.

Massa moved up two places, while another Ferrari car was even more ostentatious, with Raikkonen moving up from 16th to 10th.

"It's a kinetic energy recovery system!" Ross Brown gasped as Ferrari started the game, and judging by their performance, they had solved the problem of merging the kinetic energy recovery system with the racing engine. The extra 20 horsepower gives their car the strength to surpass the car in front of them at the moment of start.

The Circuit de Catalunya has one of the longest big straights, and Toyota's Trulli braked a little late at the end of the straight and rushed into the buffer zone, but when he returned to the track, he collided with the Indian Power's Suthir, and at the same time, the two cars of Toro Rosso did not have time to brake and collided with them, and the first lap of the race was caused by a series of collisions between four cars. Safety cars were dispatched.

Omi's face suddenly looked like he was crying, and the race had just entered the first corner when a car from Force India was eliminated.

He looked at the front, Zhang Guan was still in first place, and with the performance of the Chinese power car and the characteristics of the Catalan circuit, Zhang Guan's eventual victory was already very likely.

Omi remembered the $500 million gambling contract, and regretted it even more in his heart. A few months ago, the reason why he made such a brazen $500 million bet was because he knew that in order to win the championship in F1, it was not enough to rely on the driver's driving skills, but also to have a car that could win the championship, and he decided that Zhang Guan could not have a car that could win the championship.

However, the reality ruthlessly slapped Omi in the face, Zhang Guan bought a team that was about to go bankrupt, and this team that almost went bankrupt swept the entire car world, even a giant like Ferrari McLaren is not their opponent.

"Zhang Guan has won four consecutive championships, a total of 35 points, if he wins this station, it is 45 points, according to the situation in previous years, if he can get 100 points before the end of the season, he will basically lock up the championship. This is just the fifth race, and there are still 12 races to go, and 55 points are earned in 12 races, so you just need to run in the top five in every race! What to do? That's 500 million dollars! If I really lose $500 million, I'm afraid I won't have a place in my family! Omi's expression turned melancholy.

"No, we have to create some trouble for Zhang Guan and distract him! That's how I have a chance to keep that $500 million! Omi lowered her head and began to think.

"Stir up his relationship with No. 2 driver Barrichello? Let them fight on their own within the team! The first thought that came to Omi's mind was this.

Two drivers of a team are teammates and rivals. Especially in some big teams, when the two drivers are of equal strength, it is not uncommon for their own families to fight. After all, there is only one champion, and in front of the champion, it is often the case that he turns his face with his teammates.

In recent years, Ferrari and McLaren have both had their share of infighting, with Raikkonen and Massa for Ferrari and Alonso and Hamilton for McLaren, all of whom have the ability to compete for the title, and when they get a car that's fast enough, it's inevitable. Ferrari's internal struggles are relatively peaceful, and when one person has a large points lead, the other driver will voluntarily give up the competition; McLaren's infighting was much more intense, and Alonso, who was ultimately defeated, chose to leave the team.

Dismantling the enemy from within is indeed a good method, and this is the first method that Omi came up with.

At this point, the safety car had already run five laps on the track, the debris from the accident had been cleared, and when the safety car returned to the pits, the race resumed. Barrichello, who finished second, clearly knew what his task was, slowed down his pace and began to block Massa in third, allowing Zhang Guan to widen the gap as much as possible in front.

That's what the No. 2 driver has to do, to block the other opponents and cover the No. 1 driver to get the best result. What's more, it was his boss who was running in front, and Barrichello would undoubtedly try his best to stop the cars behind.

This scene on the track made Omi give up the idea of sowing discord. The method of sowing discord may be useful in other teams, but it is certainly useless in the Chinese power team, because Zhang Guan is not only a driver, but also the owner of the team, even if he lends Barrichello a few dares, he does not dare to compete with Zhang Guan for the championship.

A silver car suddenly slowed down and pulled to the side of the road, it was McLaren's Cova Lainen, who appeared to have suffered a mechanical problem with his pair of cars, and this was his third retirement this season.

The camera is duly focused on McLaren's garage, where the maintenance technicians shake their heads and look disappointed, and at the edge of the camera, a woman's figure catches Omi's eyes, who are staring at the track with wide eyes.

"It's Nicole Schookosinger! Hamilton's girlfriend, who was also watching the game in the garage. Omi recognized him.

Nicole Schulkesinger is Lewis Hamilton's girlfriend and the lead singer of the American group "Little Wildcats", and in the future she participated in "Men in Black 3", playing the woman who robbed the prison at the beginning of the movie.

In F1 races, it is common for family members to watch the game in the garage, and the camera is given to the garage, and the family members of the audience can often be photographed, and even some family members have become familiar faces in the eyes of the media and the audience, such as Massa's father, Alonso's wife, and Hamilton's "little wildcat" girlfriend.

It's not the first time Nicole Schookersinger has appeared on camera, she is a star in the first place, and many viewers are familiar with her, so when a fashionably dressed woman appeared in the garage, even at the edge of the camera, Omi recognized her at a glance.

"I heard that Shu Ke Singh is seven or eight years older than Hamilton, and Hamilton likes this kind of royal sister style! It is said that many F1 drivers' girlfriends or wives are all beauties, even Zhang Guan's girlfriend is Sharapova...... By the way, this is already the fifth race, why haven't you seen Sharapova's shadow? Didn't the news break last year that Zhang Guan proposed to Sharapova? I haven't heard anything else after this time......" Omi thought of this, his eyes flashing, and he suddenly thought about it.

"Factors inside the arena may not be able to interfere with Zhang Guan, but outside the arena, it seems that they can cause some trouble for Zhang Guan! Yes, just doing this will definitely distract Zhang Guan. Omi smirked. (To be continued.) )
