"The Chinese boy is hiding very deeply. No wonder he dared to provoke the Indy champion so much on the float parade."

Ferrari manager Jean Todd said this with a complex mentality.

He was always unwilling to admit that he underestimated the Chinese driver, but at this moment, Jean Todd was still shocked by the strength shown by Zhang Yifei.

This is definitely not a performance a newcomer should have. It is either a talent explosion or Zhang Yifei has already started to challenge the Indy champions who have humiliated him at the Indy 500 event.

No matter which one it is, it represents the terribleness of Zhang Yifei as a new driver. His growth rate is too fast. Super newcomer is no longer his limit. He may become a terrible opponent of Ferrari next year.

Thinking of this, Jean Todd suddenly regretted that the team sold the race engine to the Prost team. Because recently, news came from the Ferrari R&D Center that this year's race engine matched the chassis very well, and the laboratory speed was nearly five percent faster than the current race car, which is a very exaggerated improvement.

It can be said that this result was something Ferrari itself had not expected before, so they agreed to sell the engine to Prost in the "Color Pen" team.

Now it seems that there may be a situation of "raising a tiger as a disaster"!

"Who said that Fei did not have the tolerance of traditional Chinese people? This time he may have deceived everyone, including several kings of Indy Racing."

Ross Brown also agreed, those who have been engaged in F1 racing for decades, and are among the top teams, how could it be impossible to see Zhang Yifei's careful preparation?

It can be said that Zhang Yifei's performance in Indy racing is equally matched by Schumacher. If Schumacher had not taken the advantage of the inner lane, he would have surpassed Turn 1 just now.

Schumacher has seen the two of them in the past few days for the preparation of Indy Racing. As a newcomer in the season, Zhang Yifei is not as good as Schumacher in either aspect, but in a short time he has reached the same level as the first person in Formula. Who would believe that he is not prepared?

"Yes, no one would have thought that a soft persimmon used for surgery would eventually turn into a piece of iron plate."

Jean Todd sighed and said bluntly that Zhang Yifei was the soft persimmon.

In fact, at the beginning, Zhang Yifei was a cannon fodder character and was abandoned. After all, the FIA ​​would not be successfully hit by the other party because of a Chinese newcomer.

I can only say that Zhang Yifei is so fucking strong that he has been upgraded from the role of cannon fodder supporting role to become the protagonist of the War of the Century.

The discussion at the repair station did not affect the status of the drivers on the track. Zhang Yifei's long straight after the corner still wanted to attack Schumacher.

But at this moment, he saw Helio and several Indy drivers in the rearview mirror, and he took advantage of the wake of the car in front and immediately caught up. Moreover, these Indy drivers obviously have more teams. Blake and Reqi behind did not launch an offensive, which was equivalent to letting Helio attack with all his strength.

When Zhang Yifei saw this scene, he hesitated. If he forced himself to chase Schumacher, it would be equivalent to releasing two wakes to let all the Indy drivers behind him catch up. But if he gave up, Zhang Yifei would be very unwilling to accept it.

After all, he and Schumacher are not real "teammates", and they are more of an opponent relationship.

However, at this point in time, there was no time for Zhang Yifei to hesitate too much. He gritted his teeth and stopped the offensive, changed lanes and returned to the rear of Schumacher's car, helping him directly block the pursuit of the three Indy drivers.

Schumacher looked out of the corner of his eyes and watched Zhang Yifei's racing car retreat next to him, and then compared the Indy driver behind him who had already chased the rear. He instantly understood the reason why Zhang Yifei gave up the attack.

In the end, Chinese boys did not do "kill each other" for personal gain. After all, they all have a common identity, called f1 drivers!

Looking at Zhang Yifei's racing car standing in front of him, Helio's face looked ugly and a little disdainful!

Drivers should do whatever they want to win. What are teammates? What is the identity of F1 drivers? In Helio's view, teamwork is the weak team to keep warm. If a Chinese rookie doesn't even understand this, he will never be able to become a strong person!

As Zhang Yifei retreated, the situation on the track suddenly eased. Helio did not launch any strong attack. The two Indy kings at the end were even more slow. Everyone was running around the track in a very "peaceful" manner, without much gunpowder.

This is also the difference between Indy Racing and F1. Because the long schedule makes it look like it, in some aspects, combined with the characteristics of the 24-hour endurance race in Le Mans, drivers need to have a very scientific and good distribution of racing tires and their physical strength. If it is not particularly necessary, they will not make blind offensive actions.

Especially before the stronger DW12 racing car entered the 2012, Indy racing was more like a bicycle racing game, and it could only rely on the entry or safety car to create opportunities. This period of time was boring.

But once you enter the last 20 to 30 laps, it is time for hand-to-hand combat, and the audience will see the most exciting racing scene on the planet, which is the real charm of Indy racing.

Five racing cars participated, making the scene of the safety car and the yellow flag appearing almost impossible. Zhang Yifei strictly followed the pit strategy formulated by Cosell and did not give Indy drivers any advantage in the pit time.

However, with the increase in the game time, especially after two hours of the schedule, Zhang Yifei's physical fitness and mental state began to decline significantly.

Especially when facing a linear brake of more than 400km/h and an astonishing cornering speed of up to 320km/h and a heavy pressure of high G value, Zhang Yifei began to feel that he was very difficult to control the car, which was a situation that had never happened before.

It seems that the sequelae of crazy training during this period and not getting a good rest has been highlighted. After all, Zhang Yifei is not an iron man, and his physical ability has a limit.

A US Grand Prix has put Zhang Yifei on the brink of physical fitness. In a short period of time, facing the challenge of Indy racing, the string finally has the risk of breaking.

The final game was completed, and the race was only 20 laps left. Helio in the car behind him had been omitted more than once. However, he did not launch an attack directly because the loophole was not very big, so it can be seen that Zhang Yifei was still vigilant.

So Helio was waiting, waiting to give Zhang Yifei a fatal blow, so that he could understand who is the controller on the Indy track.

"Fly, the offensive stage of Indy Racing is coming, hold on!"

This time, Kossel used the word persistence during the call because he also saw that there was something wrong with Zhang Yifei's routing.

You should know that if Zhang Yifei makes mistakes in such a situation without confrontation, it can only be a problem with Zhang Yifei's condition. Otherwise, according to Zhang Yifei's strength, he could have been perfect for more than 170 laps before, and he should not make mistakes at such moments.

"I know."

Zhang Yifei gritted his teeth and replied, his face turned pale at this moment, which was a sign of exhaustion after excessive physical energy consumption.

But under the cover of the helmet, no one knew Zhang Yifei's specific status, and no one could have expected that the situation had become so serious.

Almost as soon as Cosell finished speaking, Helio, the rear car, launched a violent offensive, just like a tiger that had been dormant for a long time. He did not intend to give Zhang Yifei another chance to resist!

Finally here?

Seeing the car behind approaching madly, Zhang Yifei knew that the Indy champion who had endured for so long was finally about to show their fangs.

On his pale face, he was extremely resolute. No matter how bad his condition is, as long as I didn’t fall on the track, I would not admit defeat!

Zhang Yifei also stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and then used Schumacher's wake to block Helio's overtaking route. So what if you are the strongest newcomer in Indy, at least I, Zhang Yifei, will not be so easy to pass this level.

I have to say that Helio's reaction and control were very strong. After being blocked, he immediately changed the line and went around the inside to take Schumacher's wake, and surpassed Zhang Yifei in reverse. However, Zhang Yifei's lane change speed was also very fast. Just when the front nose was about to cross the wheel, he barely blocked Helio's front nose, and the revolver was about to collide with Helio's right front nose.

"Here, the strongest offensive of the Indy driver is here. This is known as the strongest Indy newcomer in history, Helio is indeed very amazing in control."

Sir Williams evaluated Helio's driving skills in an agreement tone. Unlike the ordinary chasing ahead, Helio began to show a completely different side when it came to hand-to-hand combat.

Fierce, radical, with strong pressure, it is like a copy of Zhang Yifei on the Indy Track.

However, it can be felt that Helio's momentum is stronger than Zhang Yifei. After all, he won the Indy annual championship, which is a kind of kingly momentum. There may be another point, that is, Helio is more unique and more confident than Zhang Yifei.

"Yes, there is a reason why Helio can be called the strongest Indy newcomer. He has a very accurate grasp of the timing and control. If he had just had a little slower reaction, he would have been surpassed."

"Now, there are not many drivers who can pose such threats to flying on the F1 track, let alone print local formulas."

Technician Director Simmonds agreed, after all, there is an Indy King in Williams. But from the current scene, Helio seems to be even better. At least in the first few games of the new season, Montoya was almost beaten by Zhang Yifei.

"I can feel that there is something wrong with Fei's condition. The reason is probably because his physical fitness is not up to standard. It's not without a price for him to be so familiar with Indy track and racing. Now it's time for him to pay the price."

Sir Williams's vision was very "poisonous". He saw through Zhang Yifei's current state and even guessed what efforts Zhang Yifei had made to become familiar with the Indy 500 event.

It can only be said that people have an upper limit after all. If Zhang Yifei breaks his own upper limit in a short period of time, he must exchange something as a price.
