"Uncle Lu, is it news from the European cooperation club?"

When he received the call, Zhang Yifei asked directly. He knew that Lu Ningping would not call him without any worries. Since he had called, he would definitely have something to do.

"Well, the video information was transmitted to European cooperative clubs through the Internet. After watching it, they also said that they were very skilled, but..."

As the saying goes, you are afraid of saying anything. However, when you hear this, Zhang Yifei already understood that things might be ruined.

"Uncle Lu, just say whatever you have. At worst, I will go up step by step from the elementary equation!"

Zhang Yifei was not very disappointed. Maybe he had already made preparations for failure.

"They think you are old at the moment. This kind of strength is very strong in kart drivers in their teens, but it is not very eye-catching in Formula racing. If you want to prove yourself, you need to use a stronger opponent to set off."

What Lu Ningping said is true. The Hong Kong Junior Kart Championship is currently the highest-level youth competition in Greater China, but it is not even as good as Mao in the world.

If Zhang Yifei won the Renault Formula Championship at that time, the result might be completely different. The level of driving skills depends not only on yourself, but also on who the opponent you were facing at that time.

"But it is not a complete failure. I have contacted the Toyota Team Youth Training Center in Japan. They are planning to establish the Toyota Youth Training Camp. If you want, you can first enter the Toyota Youth Training Camp. In the future, in the name of Toyota drivers, participate in the Renault Formula, or directly enter the Japanese F3 level event."

“Does Toyota have an F1 team at present?”

Zhang Yifei asked back, because according to his memory, the Toyota F1 team seemed to have officially joined F1 in 2002, and now it is only 1999, and time is a bit unmatched. Could it be that history has changed again, the Renault Formula appeared in advance, and even the Toyota team was ahead of schedule?

"No, no F1 team can appear out of thin air, especially the newly joined F1 team, which will take several years to prepare. It just so happens that the Toyota Racing Center is ready to prepare, so there are free places, which is a good opportunity."

The meaning of Lu Ningping's words is also very obvious. It is that the current strong F1 team in Europe, even if it is a youth training camp or a car academy, would not choose an unknown person like Zhang Yifei.

But the Toyota team is different. They are currently in the process of planning and need drivers to join their reserve echelon, so they can give Zhang Yifei a chance to try out, which may also be Zhang Yifei's only opportunity at present.

"No problem, Uncle Lu, I can try out the Toyota Team youth training camp."

After resolving the doubts, Zhang Yifei agreed without hesitation. He also knew that once this opportunity was missed, the next newly formed F1 team would have to wait until the BMW Sauber team in 2006.

Of course, Zhang Yifei would not be able to wait until 2006. If he missed Toyota Youth Training and wanted to enter F1, he would have to go from the super kart race and step by step according to the previous plan. This time is long, and the F1 team currently has the driver's age requirements, but the current requirements for the drivers are getting younger and younger.

"Okay, I'll help you make sure it's time for you. Guangzhou and Shenzhen ask Zhiguo to prepare the face-to-face signing materials, so that you can apply for a visa at that time."

In this era, due to domestic economic reasons, it is relatively difficult to apply for visas from developed countries. After all, too many people go out to work illegally. However, with the current assets of Zhang Yifei and the invitation letter issued by Toyota, the chance of visa approval is basically 100%.

So the visa time will not be long, and it will take about one week to prepare. Zhang Yifei plans to use this week to go to Donghai to run a field race, and at the same time, it can also be regarded as seeing the professional atmosphere of domestic racing in this era and the legendary Donghai Volkswagen 222 team.

After all, this was the most well-known professional team in China in my previous life. I wonder what this world looks like. Will the current writer and future driver Han Han join?

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yifei told the old man what Uncle Lu said, at least he asked him to prepare the property certificate and how to prove the deposit assets. The rest were waiting for Uncle Lu to bring the invitation letter issued by Toyota, so it would be much easier to sign in person.

Originally, Zhang Yifei's trip to Japan was just a second choice for him. After all, there is no way to accept the strongest European team.

Unexpectedly, this news was extremely excited in the eyes of Zhang Zhiguo and the others, because the level of domestic professional competitions is very low at the moment. It may be better to go to Japan as a test driver for a year.

This is similar to football in later generations. It can study abroad to improve its technical level, which is better than staying in China.

Japanese racing rookies are relatively strong compared to the strongest Europe, but they are still much stronger than China at present, especially in terms of field racing and formulas. At this stage, the domestic market is almost equal to zero.

"I will prepare the materials for you. If you go to Japan, practice them well. Don't let your Uncle Lu down! "

Hearing this, Zhang Yifei also replied with a smile: "Don't worry, old man, no matter how you go to Japan, you must be better than the Japanese students, otherwise it would be more than just letting Uncle Lu down."

On the other hand, the test drive debugging time was longer than the previous time it took to modify the power system, and it took three days.

In fact, this has not been debugged yet, because there is too little road conditions and the driving school's territory is far from being compared with the real tracks. But there is no way, the conditions are at this level, and Zhang Yifei is tight in time, so he can only do this step.

But even so, Zhang Yifei felt that it was enough. Shen Dong could not beat himself in the mountain track competition. He still wanted to win the professional field competition? It was a joke!

In fact, seriously, it is almost impossible for countries with mature motor sports in later generations to take into account both the field race and the rally and reach the championship level, because this belongs to a completely different type. On the contrary, F1 and RV belong to the field race.

However, Han Han, a famous racer in later generations, won the double championships in the field and rally in China. This is not to prove how strong Han Han is, but to the contrary, it proves that the domestic competition level is relatively low.

It is precisely because of the special environment in China that although Zhang Yifei's main business is a rally driver, he actually runs a lot of games on the field. Moreover, during this period, high-intensity kart training has improved his driving skills. It can be said that in terms of purely field racing, his driving skills are extremely close to the level of his previous life.

Therefore, some flaws of Mitsubishi evo can no longer affect the results of the event, and Chen Dong has no hope of winning.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Yifei contacted the logistics company and sent the evo to the East China Sea. He took the plane the next morning to rush over. It was not until the next night that Zhang Yifei mentioned his evo, which was more than 1,400 kilometers away, which was already very fast in this era.
