Almighty Athlete Chapter 282: The last fight (26/20)
In the last two laps, Zhang Guan can only rely on itself.
Vettel is like a mad bull, desperately chasing forward.
At this time, Vettel already understood that he was deceived. Zhang Guan had no intention of pitting. As for the wrong tire and the fight with the repairman, it was just to confuse himself.
Vettel recalled the situation just now and felt more humiliated. Dry tires and rain tires are confused, and the four people are confused. Think about what is impossible, how can the team come out with a set of dry tires under such heavy rain outside?
A repair technician fights? When it is not possible to fight, but when Zhang Guan is about to arrive at the entrance of the maintenance station, it is necessary to know that the maintenance technicians are all a team of people who have been training together for many years. If there are contradictions, they will have trouble. And even if there is a big conflict between them, it is impossible to fight when it is time to change the driver's tire.
All this, after a careful analysis, it seems so childish, but Vettel just believes that he even sympathized with Zhang Guan.
"Damn!" Vettel became more angry when he thought of this diǎn, and he was deceived by others. He still sympathized with others, which made Vettel feel that his IQ was completely insulted.
"I must surpass him!" Vettel added full horsepower and quickly approached Zhang Guan.
The road is very slippery. It is impossible for Zhang Guan's tires to make too much movement. Whether he enters or exits, he seems to be very careful, which loses a lot of time, and Vettel uses his own rain tires. 'S advantage quickly caught up behind Zhang Guan.
Catching up does not mean being able to surpass. In Formula One races, sometimes the two cars differ by only a few seconds, but the following car may not be able to surpass the previous car for several laps. Under the current rules Next, the defensive side has a great advantage. When the speed of the two sides is about the same and the level is similar, the slight advantage is not enough to quickly surpass.
For this reason, the reforms of Formula One cars in recent years have also been aimed at encouraging overtaking, such as bald tires, such as the kinetic energy recovery system, have made overtaking easier and are weakening the defensive side. The advantages.
Vettel caught up with the Zhang Guan, but in the corner, he did not try to surpass. In terms of speed, Chinese power cars do not lose in the corner. After all, they are equipped with double diffusers, and Zhang Guan’s Although the tires are no longer good, he barely kept a line of advantage, and did not allow Vettel to find a chance to surpass.
"It's a straight through the 13th turn ahead, and on the straight, I can use the wake of the car to overtake him!" Vettel thought to himself.
Formula 1 cars have a wake, that is, a small vacuum will form behind the car running in front, and when the car behind is close to this vacuum area, the resistance will be much smaller, which is equivalent to gaining extra in disguise. This kind of situation is very common in other motor sports.
If it is in a straight road, this wake has an advantage for the rear car. The rear car can rely on the wake of the front car to approach the distance and then complete the overtaking. However, in the corners, the rear fixed airfoil of the front car will lift the airflow upwards, so that the front fixed airfoil of the rear car loses downforce, but instead reduces the speed of the rear car in the corner.
Red Bull’s car is a car that relies heavily on aerodynamics, so Vettel subconsciously chose to overtake in the straight instead of over the corner.
Zhang Guan turned out of turn 13 and began to accelerate. At the same time, Vettel also caught up with him, and the front nose of his car was almost attached to the tail of the Zhang Guan car.
Fourth gear, fifth gear, and sixth gear, this large straight can reach a tail speed of 330 kilometers per hour, and for Mercedes-Benz engines, the most good thing is this unreasonable linear acceleration.
The speed of the Zhang Guan is rapidly increasing. However, behind Zhang Guan, Vettel’s speed is also very fast. He uses the Zhang Guan wake, which can be said to be gaining additional power.
"A good chance is now!" Vettel turned the steering wheel sharply and missed from the right side. The next moment he used the speed advantage brought by his wake and came to the side of Zhang Guan in an instant. The two cars were almost It is the same.
But Vettel is not satisfied with this, he has to grab a corner.
Turn 14 is a super low-speed turn. In this corner, the car is going to make a major 180-degree U-turn. The original speed of 330 kilometers per hour in the sixth gear has to be reduced to 80 kilometers in the second gear.
More importantly, this is a right turn. As long as Vettel on the right can smoothly enter the corner first, he can occupy a more powerful line. Looking at the current condition of the two people’s tires, once Vettel If you surpassed Zhang Guan, Zhang Guan would be difficult to overtake again.
Vettel's big foot brake, ready to enter the corner.
Innumerable water diǎn splashed onto the goggles of Witttherm’s helmet at this time. This is the splash from the front car, and the car in front is undoubtedly Zhang Guan.
In this corner, Zhang Guan chose a very late brake, so he ran ahead of Vettel.
"Zhang Guan chooses to brake so late, and it will slide out!" Vettel immediately chose a more conservative cornering angle. In his view, with the current tire status of Zhang Guan, the car will inevitably slip off the track What he has to do is try not to be affected by Zhang Guan as much as possible and avoid getting involved in the accident.
In front, the red car almost slipped sideways into the track, the water splashed, and that moment blocked the sight in front of Vettel, but vaguely, Vettel could see a red light diǎn blinked.
That is the taillight of the car!
Next~IndoMTL.com~ the bright din gradually gets smaller, which means that the previous car has started to accelerate and gradually moved away from Vettel.
"It's Zhang Guan, he didn't slide off the runway, he controlled the car! How did he do it just now? My eyes were completely blocked by rain, and I couldn't see clearly." Vettel's eyes revealed An incredible look.
......
Front, Zhang Guan's breathing has become very rapid. He just turned the corner that time, almost exhausting all his energy.
"It's over, but it's okay to come here! If I didn't take advantage of understeer, I would have slipped off the track just now. This is also good luck today! At this time, I can only try my luck!" Zhang Guan looked at the big straight in front of the main stand, and increased the throttle again.
However, the following Vettel once again used the wake to approach.
The final lap left in the game, and the struggle between the two has reached the most critical moment. (.)
