527 Joy and Sadness (Chapter 3)
“Beautiful job!”
The Prost fleet repair station, which had already frozen the atmosphere, seemed to be ignited in an instant, and the crew members all cheered and excited.
No matter how strong Alessi is, as a veteran of Prost team, he chose to join in the most difficult time of the team. The members of the crew remember this friendship.
And many times, French veterans are the backbone of this French team. Newcomers can come and leave. As long as this French veteran is still there, the team will not collapse and they will have the confidence to continue to compete in the track.
"Alaisi~~!Alaisi~~!Alaisi~~!"
From eighth to seventh, it is just a small improvement in ranking, and even the points zone has not yet entered.
But it also depends on the situation and the situation. In the current tense atmosphere of the convoy, an inspiring point is urgently needed.
Moreover, Alessi is not surpassing others, but the No. 2 driver of Ferrari, and the top driver on the track, Barrichello!
This is like a driver who can't even reach 60 points. Suddenly, the small universe exploded and defeated his usual 90-point opponent.
This achievement is enough to be proud of the French veteran!
"Fly, Alessi surpassed Barrichello and defeated the Ferrari driver, I believe you can do it too."
Henry immediately told Zhang Yifei the news through the voice system.
Because he knew that Zhang Yifei was facing now, and Alessi, who might be ranked seventh, could not bring much help to Zhang Yifei, but the spiritual encouragement of his teammates defeating Ferrari drivers is unmeasurable.
Is Alessi surpassing Barrichello?
Zhang Yifei was indeed surprised to hear this news.
It’s not that he underestimated his teammates, but he is still quite grateful to this French veteran now, but he not only knows the record of Alessi in this world, but also knows Alessi’s future development history.
Objectively speaking, the strength of this French veteran is indeed a bit unfavorable, and he can still be regarded as a blue-collar driver in the early days.
The kind who is not as good as the top and more than the bottom is still someone who has entered the Ferrari team, and has been driving for five years! Without some strength, it is really hard to gain a foothold in the Ferrari team, even if it created the Ferrari before the ruling dynasty.
However, at the end of his career, Alessi's blue-collar worker was not considered a driver, and he was really the last driver. He was not at the same level as Barrichello at his peak.
On the track, Alessi is the kind who can't see the taillights of Barrichello for a long time. Even if the taillights of this car are not exposed to bad weather, they will not light up.
Today, Alessi actually surpassed Ferrari driver Barrichello in the one-on-one fight. Has the veteran really begun his second career?
"Alaisi, beautifully done!"
Even in the face of Schumacher's huge pressure, Zhang Yifei still sent his congratulations to Alessi at this time.
"Drive well, wait until you win Schumacher, don't be worse than me."
Alessi's tone was very plain, without the joy of being congratulated at all.
But Alessi actually admitted that he was not as good as Zhang Yifei. Moreover, he also used similar methods to provoke Zhang Yifei to defeat Schumacher.
Schumacher is the strongest person on the track. Only by defeating him can he reach the pinnacle of the Austrian Grand Prix!
"Don't worry, I can't hold back."
Zhang Yifei replied with a joke, and the pressure in his heart was much less than at the beginning.
Indeed, Alessi's victory gave Zhang Yifei a great spiritual encouragement. French veterans can break through themselves, and I, Zhang Yifei, will never fall behind!
Confidence began to increase dramatically, facing the pressure brought by Schumacher. Since I can get the pole position, I can become the first car and defeat you Schumacher once!
That means, I have the strength to defeat you for the second time! No matter what, today I will step on the crown of the car god to reach the top of that championship!
Schumacher in the rear car felt the change in speed of the blue Prost car in front, and his emotions were very complicated.
Shocking, incredible, anger, competitive spirit and other emotions followed one after another. It can be said that being blocked for more than twenty times is something Schumacher had never thought of before.
According to his pre-match prediction, Zhang Yifei could be pulled down from the pole position within five laps, so on the third lap after the safety car was cancelled, Schumacher launched a fierce offensive against Zhang Yifei.
The situation that was originally almost a must-win situation was resolved by Zhang Yifei calmly responding, and he squeezed the performance of Prost racing to the extreme in an instant.
After all, the difference in racing performance is one or two percent. If it is placed in the full track of sixty or seventy laps, the difference will be infinitely magnified. However, in the ultra-short schedule, the difference is only a few centimeters and a few dozen centimeters, so Zhang Yifei can fight Schumacher for so long.
Schumacher did not surpass him at that time, and he did not take it seriously. It can only be said that Zhang Yifei's response was excellent and he performed as the strongest newcomer in the track.
But Schumacher believed that Zhang Yifei would not be able to maintain this kind of performance forever. Soon, the newcomer would make mistakes and loopholes to catch him, which is also a common problem for newcomers in the track.
As a result, after more than twenty laps, Zhang Yifei still has not made any mistakes that can make him overtake. He still maintains extremely stable performance and does not look like a newcomer at all.
This made Schumacher feel very uncomfortable. How could he not even surpass a newcomer?
"Shumi, it's time to show off some strength."
Jean Todd's voice appeared in Schumacher's headphones.
This Ferrari boss has always had a blind recognition of Schumacher's strength and rarely issued any such orders to overtake him.
Because there is no need for Jean Todd to say anything, Schumacher can surpass all the drivers in front of him. So this recognition should not be called blindness, but Schumacher has this strength.
But this time, Todd felt very angry!
Although Barrichello is only positioned as the No. 2 Green Leaf driver in the Ferrari team, everything is for Schumacher. But the No. 2 driver of Ferrari is not a soft persimmon, and it is even less likely to be a rookie.
If Schumacher is the best in the world, Barrichello will become the second in the world!
For a French veteran like Alessi, it can be said that Jean Todd really didn't take him seriously.
This is not that Jean Todd is arrogant and despised others, but he is still a kind boss. Especially with Schumacher, he is a relationship of both a teacher and a friend. During the time of the God of Car Rehab, Jean Todd was one of the few relatives and friends who were allowed to visit Schumacher.
In contrast, Barrichello, who had been in teammate relationship for five or six years, and also jointly created a Ferrari dynasty, but was turned away, as if he was strangers.
The main reason is that in the past two or three years, Alessi's performance has been a bit unbearable and it is impossible for him to appear on Ferrari's opponent list at all. It is impossible to think about a driver who is at the bottom of the year.
As a result, this kind of driver overcame Ferrari's second driver Barrichello, and another driver of Prost also blocked Schumacher for more than 20 laps.
This situation was unheard of before, and it made Todd feel unacceptable. It was a humiliation for the Ferrari team's kingship!
So he doesn't want the situation on the track to continue. Barrichello's affairs can be put aside. Schumacher should not be in the position of the second-year-old. It's time for the Chinese boy to give in!
In fact, there is no need for Jean Todd to remind him, Schumacher felt a little unbearable. He replied firmly: "In the next lap, the flying general will see me being left far behind."
"Very good, this is the picture that should appear!"
Jean Todd was very satisfied with Schumacher's answer, and he never considered whether this kind of scene could be achieved.
Just kidding, if Schumacher couldn't do it, no one in this world would have the strength!
On the 27th lap, Austrian Route 1, Route 3, there is a downhill straight in front of this bend, but it is not as long as the straight in front of Bosch Bend, but it is about 400 meters away.
In later races, this distance is the start-over overtaking area of DRS (adjustable tail wing). However, in this era, the adjustable tail wing that can change the aerodynamic layout of the racing car has not been used yet, so everyone still relies on the hard power of racing to overtake on the straight road.
Zhang Yifei was still blocking Schumacher's car. No matter how the other party changed lanes, Zhang Yifei would follow Schumacher to draw dragons. Because he understood that as long as Schumacher crossed his rear wheel in the straight road, Prost racing would really not be able to withstand the power of the floor oil...
Turn No. 3 itself is a sharp turn. Before entering the turn, you must sharply reduce the speed from more than 300km/h to about 100km/h to ensure a safe turn.
At the same time, the G-force you will bear will also reach 2.1 during the turn.
Of course, this G-finger influence with twice the weight is nothing to Zhang Yifei. It is not in vain to train neck muscles for more than a year.
What really challenges the difficulty is that after passing Turn 3, you will enter a slight downhill section, which is only about 50 meters, and another corner is about to come.
This kind of continuous curve tests the number of cars to control the acceleration and deceleration of the racing car, and is also one of the most frequent sections of overtaking on the A1 track.
Zhang Yifei not only needs to ensure that he slows down before entering the corner, but also needs to ensure that he is ready to accelerate during the bend cutting process. Otherwise, the downhill section will easily increase the speed of the car overtaking and be caught by his opponent.
Just like before, Zhang Yifei chose the fastest route to make a normal tangent. However, during his turn, he found the outsider on his left, and the red shadow quickly caught up, and then turned at the same time.
And it is very close to my racing car, and the distance between the two cars may be within 10 cm!
This extreme is close to the distance of the car, and it is still in a state of turning too sharply. Without absolute confidence and perverted driving skills, no driver dares to do this.
But the other party is Schumacher. No one in the F1 paddock can do what he can't do.
