Almighty Athlete Chapter 271: The big one (15/20)


Ross Brown didn’t immediately understand what Zhang Guan meant by "filling up". He thought that Zhang Guan was to use a pit stop strategy, so he said: "In this race, the timing of a pit stop is probably in the first place About thirty-five laps, considering that this year’s super-soft tires are not very wearable, you can push back the pit stop a little bit. If you think you can hold a few more laps, you can give you more oil."

"How many laps of oil are you going to prepare?" Technical Director Zander asked from the side.

"Fifty-six laps!" Zhang Guan answered.

"Okay, no problem." Zander didn't respond to the number "56" at the beginning. He regarded this as the boss's command, so he agreed without thinking.

But Rose Brown next to him reacted, he said, "What are you kidding, this race is only fifty-six laps in total! You need to add fifty-six laps of oil, don't you plan to enter Stand up?"

"Yes, I don't want to get in and run all the way to the end." Zhang Guan replied.

"Impossible, that is a foul! We must use two types of tires." Rose Brown said with a shake of his head.

There is no limit to the number of times a driver can enter the Formula One race. If the driver is idle, it is possible to enter the pit every lap.

But for each race, the tire provider Princeton will provide two dry tires for each team. In China, they provide super soft tires and neutral tires. The rules require that each car must be in the race. These two types of tires are used. Under this rule, it is impossible to run without pitting, because in order to use two types of tires, the car must change tires once, so there must be at least one pit stop.

As for the capacity of the fuel tank, there is no problem in supporting the full distance of the car. The Formula One car does not look big, but the fuel tank is very large. In the future in 2010, the International Automobile Federation will cancel the refueling in the race, that is, all cars will run without fueling, which also shows that the capacity of the fuel tank is enough.

Just listen to Zhang Guan and then say: "The rules require that we have to use two types of tires, but don't forget that there is another explanation on the rules, except for rainy days."

"Except for rainy days? Are you going to bet on tomorrow's rain battle? You've gotten into the rules!" Rose Brown understood instantly.

There are a total of six types of tires offered by Princeton this year, four dry tires and two rain tires. Each station will provide two different dry tires, and the rain tires are fixed two types, respectively. It is a full rain tire and a half rain tire. If it is rainy, for everyone's safety, of course, the car must use rain tires. Of course, the people who make the rules will not be rigid until the rain. They will also force the driver to use two different dry tires, so the rule 1 is also allowed. It is not necessary to use two dry tires in case of rain.

As for the two types of rain tires, there is no hard requirement to use them all. When the rain is small, use the semi-rain tire, and when the rain is heavy, use the full rain tire. Each team can use its own conditions according to the actual situation and weather conditions. To choose which type of rain tires to use, the rules cannot force the team to run with semi-rain tires under heavy rain, and that is not safe.

So if it’s really raining tomorrow, Zhang Guan can start with a rain tire, and then run to the end without pitting, without worrying about the tire change problem, which is theoretically feasible, and even more Seen as a loophole.

Ross Brown pondered for a few seconds, and finally shook his head: "No, it’s just theoretical, but it’s actually impossible. We assume that the game is running in the rain, but if the game is halfway through, the rain stops. The road is dry, you still have to go back to the repair station and put on dry tires to run. We can’t run dry with rain tires, the loss of lap speed is too great."

"So all I have to bet is that it will rain tomorrow!" Zhang Guan said.

"It will rain throughout the game? This chance is smaller than the chance of a rain battle. Although the weather team has determined that 90% of the weather may be rainy tomorrow, a game lasts for two hours. And how likely is it that it has been raining for two hours? Such a gamble is too risky." Rose Brown said.

"I was originally the last one to start, since I want to gamble, of course I have to put it all on! If you are at the table now, you have only one bargaining chip, and you only have one chance, how do you choose? "Zhang Guan didn't wait for Ross Brown to speak up, and replied, "I will choose to put the chips in the place with the biggest odds, even if this is the smallest chance!"

Ross Brown thinks carefully, and feels that Zhang Guan said it makes sense. Anyway, it is the last one who started, is it still a luxury to fight for the first? The last one is to seek stability, it is nothing meaningful at all, it is better to bet a big game!

But Rose Brown immediately thought of another problem, and he shook his head again: "Impossible, it is still impossible. Although there is no problem with the oil capacity, the tires are unsustainable. 56 laps of the game , The tires can never hold."

"Let's run with heavy rain tires? Heavy rain tires should be the most wear-resistant!" Zhang Guan said immediately.

"That won't hold! The limit of heavy rain tires is forty-five laps, even if you can hold fifty laps, what about the last six laps? It is estimated that when fifty laps, heavy rain tires The lines have long been smoothed. You are equivalent to running with a bald tire and running a rain battle with a bald tire for at least six laps. How is this possible!" Rose Brown said with a shake of his head.

"I want to give it a try. In case the rain stops when I run to the last six laps, I can just run!" Zhang Guan said ~IndoMTL.com~ Haha, how can there be so much in case. "Ross Brown felt that Zhang Guan seemed to be just looking for reasons, he said comfortingly: "Zhang, you are already the driver first, and we are also the team first, you don't need to put too much pressure on yourself, you don't need to be so persistent . There are more than a dozen races behind, our road is still very long, you have time to fight for the championship, including the final world championship! "

Zhang Guan sighed. He shook his head slightly, and his eyes showed an unshakable firmness: "Mr. Brown, you know, this race has an extraordinary meaning to me, This is my home stadium. This is the first time for Chinese drivers to compete on the land of their own country! All I want to be champions, I only need to be champions! In addition to the champions, all other results mean failure for me!"

Looking at the persistent look of Zhang Guan, Rose Brown can fully feel the will of Zhang Guan. It was a desire for honor, and it was an oath of a strong man.

Unconsciously, Rose Brown germinated a deep feeling in his heart, but also an impulse. This impulse required him to decide to help Zhang Guan to achieve the goal of winning the championship in China.

"Okay, then I will bet a big one with you!" Rose Brown said. To be continued.
