"Todd, how is the engine cylinder pressure sensor data now?"

Schumacher asked the Ferrari repair station in a slightly quick tone. The reason why he was overtaken by Zhang Yifei was because the engine's cylinder pressure was insufficient, which led to a drop in power.

This is why, the Ferrari, which has always been strong, is evenly matched with Zhang Yifei's Prost car in terms of cornering speed, and is even slightly insufficient.

“It’s still in a low state.”

Jean Todd replied with a serious expression, no one would have expected that Ferrari would have problems at this final showdown.

Cylinder pressure is an important indicator of the engine. Once pressure leakage or other failure occurs, the engine power will drop at the least, and the cylinder will be short of the cylinder at the worst.

Previously, the Peugeot engine of Prost Racing also had a situation similar to Schumacher's current situation. Later, Peugeot Group sent engineers to find ways to strengthen the sealing of valves and pistons, which barely solved the problem of pressure leakage.

However, the Peugeot engine is a design flaw, and the method of making do with it is not the root cause. The consequence is that the engine power is reduced and the horsepower is reduced to 890p, which is a percentage gap with other teams with cars above 900p.

In addition, this method of remediation has also brought an unexpected surprise to Prost team. That is, the most serious consequence of pressure leakage is that the cylinder is short of cylinders, and it can barely start a schedule, while the consequence of excessive pressure is that the cylinder is exploded, which is to be directly cool on the track.

After the power is reduced, the pressure on the engine is also greatly reduced, and there is no extreme limit of pressing performance, which instead improves the stability of the event engine.

This is why the Prost team's failure rate this season is significantly lower than last season. It is not because Zhang Yifei is lucky, but because the stability of the Peugeot engine has indeed improved a lot.

However, if Zhang Yifei had to choose by himself, he would rather have a high failure rate with strong power than a stable power with weak power.

Because in competitive sports, a champion can win ten runners-ups, and the score of about ten is even less valuable than that of a champion.

Even if it is not a great honor, just from the point of view, the champion can get 10 points, and the sixth place is only 1 point left. This is the ten times the gap, and the drivers behind have no point.

As long as you can win a championship, even if you don’t finish the next game, it will be much better than playing in the middle.

Just like Zhang Yifei himself, after four games, he was a good run in any of them. He was as fierce as a tiger!

But when I looked back, I found that after running in one season, I only had 5 points so far, not to mention the championship 10 points, and even the runner-up 6 points were almost counted. This was due to the sacrifice of all the efforts of entertainment time and the life-long extreme control on the track, I got these 5 points.

If you relax a little bit, with the performance of Prost racing, you won’t even get these 5 points unless you are absolutely leading in terms of driving skills or if you make mistakes in every game by the Big Three drivers.

The act of dancing on the tip of a knife is not a long-term thing after all, and life is not a good way to go. At most, it is to win a certain branch station and there is no possibility of competing for the world championship title.

If you want to challenge the Big Three head-on, you must be in a fair showdown at the same level. This is why, while Zhang Yifei was recovering from an injury, he was dragging his injured leg and sponsoring the acquisition of 40% of the Prost team's shares.

Only in this way can he control enough voice in team decision-making and guide the team to purchase Ferrari engines. Otherwise, if the Super Mars rover appears next season, it will be useless for you to have a life-threatening life. You can only burn incense and worship Buddha, praying for Schumacher to get a little more faults to get a bargain!

"Is there any way to save it?"

Schumacher asked again, and in fact he already had the answer in his heart, but he was really unwilling to accept the loss to the racing engine at this last moment!

"There is no other way except for pitting the station to repair."

Technical Director Ross Brown answered this question instead of Jean Todd. The engine cylinder pressure leakage is not a minor fault, nor is it a problem that can be solved by racing settings.

"I see."

Schumacher suppressed his unwillingness and complaints in his heart, and quickly adjusted his emotions and returned to his previous game state.

After all, he is the strongest driver on the track at present. Without a strong heart, he cannot become a car god.

Since there is no way to change things, I can only accept reality, just like my previous overtaking, because of a Chinese boy's gearbox failure.

This can only be said that God is fair. He helped himself before, but now he has flew to the Chinese drivers.

In addition, Schumacher pursues the world championship title, which is much more important to the championship in the score station. Even if he finishes the second runner-up, he can still lock in the world championship title in advance. So what if the Chinese newcomer wins one game?

But things were not as simple as Schumacher imagined. At this moment, behind his car, the blue and white Williams racing car was approaching wildly and was ready to launch an overtaking attack on him.

Although Montoya is in a backward position, he has never considered giving up the word "giving up"!

Perhaps Montoya has many shortcomings, and even in the end it was due to personality factors that he failed to survive in the f1 paddock. But there is one thing he has never questioned, that is, Montoya's desire for championship and victory!

Montoya has always been known for his wildness and toughness throughout his career. Even if he only has a slight hope of overtaking, Montoya often takes great risks to fight for it.

It is precisely because of his struggle that Montoya has accumulated a lot of fans and fanatical supporters in the f1 paddock.

While Schumacher was blocking the car crazy, he suppressed his own and Zhang Yifei's speed in a sense. And these last few laps were just the time to sprint lap.

Williams' "Sword and Tiger" racing performance is only behind McLaren Racing, but the failure rate is much lower than that of this year's McLaren Racing. The overall quality can be said to be above Ferrari Racing. If it is even stronger, it can be called a "Mars rover".

However, Ralph Schumacher and Montoya were not lucky and met the strongest driver combination in Ferrari's history. This leading racing performance is completely impossible to cover up the overall backwardness in strength.

However, although the championship competition is not an opponent, Williams still has strong competitiveness in a single game. This year, Schumacher and Montoya have won over-the-stop championship titles.

This time, Montoya also wants to defend his title to prove his strength. As long as the game is not over, he will never give up the obsession of defeating Zhang Yifei!

Schumacher looked at the rearview mirror at this time and found that Montoya had already chased him and was about to overtake. The expression on his face was very cold.

Do you want to be more ego?

At the Brazil Grand Prix, Schumacher was not in good shape. He was easily surpassed by Zhang Yifei and Montoya one after another. Even Montoya's strong car-squeezing behavior at that time triggered fierce discussions after the game and eventually became famous.

With Schumacher's pride, this kind of behavior of trampling on himself as a stepping stone is naturally unacceptable!

Unexpectedly, this scene was about to be staged today. Just now, the Chinese boy Zhang Yifei passed by, and Montoya immediately launched an overtaking offensive. Did he really treat me Schumacher as a soft persimmon?

Although the power of Ferrari racing is reduced due to insufficient cylinder pressure, it is still far from being unable to run. Schumacher has enough confidence to block Montoya in the last few laps, allowing the Indy 500 Racing World Champion to feel the strength of the F1 World Champion!

The wild Montoya doesn’t care about Schumacher’s strength and status. In a sense, Montoya’s confidence is stronger than Zhang Yifei!

At least when Zhang Yifei faced Schumacher in the early days, he felt a little guilty and felt ashamed of himself. After all, he came from later generations and understood that this was Schumacher's peak era. A man who was the seven-crown champion was really not something to mess with.

But Montoya is different. Schumacher is powerful, but he does not have the fear of facing the god of car. And more importantly, he also has the identity of the Indy world champion and has stood at the peak of Formula Racing.

Perhaps the Indy World Championship is slightly inferior to Formula 1 in terms of influence and value. But this is like the difference between the World Championships and the Olympics. Even in terms of influence alone, the World Championships are not as good as the Olympics, but how afraid will the World Championships be of the Olympics?

The answer is also no!

Montoya launched a strong attack without hesitation. After all, his ultimate goal is not to surpass Schumacher in front of him, but Zhang Yifei in front of him!

This is a war between the newcomer kings. He has almost reached the last line of defense and can't afford to lose!

Montoya's strong attitude aroused Schumacher's dissatisfaction. He could not accept the newcomer's repeated provocations. No matter what, he did not intend to give Montoya any chance to go!

Schumacher is terrible when he gets serious. Now Montoya has begun to taste the iron curtain-like defense that Zhang Yifei encountered before. Moreover, Schumacher has adapted to the control changes after the power drops, so he will not give Montoya a chance!

Lap 68, Lap 69... Before the end of the game, there are still two laps left.

As time went by, Montoya looked at Zhang Yifei who was slowly moving away, and became more and more anxious. He didn't want to continue to get entangled with Schumacher, otherwise he would have surpassed Zhang Yifei, even if the game ended, whether he could catch up would be a question!

The anxious consequence is that Montoya's attack is getting more and more violent. When he came to the corner of Remus, Montoya used an extremely late brake method to force him from the outside to the center line, preparing to forcibly seize Schumacher's route!

The Brazilian Grand Prix won once, do you want to win a second time?

Schumacher is definitely not a coward who is afraid of fighting, don’t try to make him retreat for the second time!
