Almighty Athlete Chapter 248: Win the game
Ferrari's two cars are racing, hoping to use the starting time to rush to the front. The extra 80 horsepower provided by their kinetic energy recovery system is very helpful for the start.
Red Bull’s Vettel is also eyeing. He just put on a new set of tào tires, which makes him feel more confident. He can continue to put pressure on Zhang Guan in the next few laps. Instead of the problem of tire wear.
The safety car led a full lap for four laps. In these four laps, the car used a fuel-saving mode, and the wear of the tires was also very light. Therefore, both the fuel amount and the tires must be recalculated.
On lap 23, the safety car’s top light goes out, which means it will return to the maintenance area on the next lap.
"The safety car is going back, the opportunity is coming! As long as you can use the wake of the front car in the straight, you may be able to overtake at the end of the straight." The driver circles behind were all holding their feet and waiting for the next The moment the lap safety car entered the station.
In the command center of the China Force team, Ross Brown's face appeared involuntarily with a trace of worry. He was still worried about Zhang Guan.
"This time it's not a static start, but a dynamic start. I don't know if Zhang Guan can cope with it. The gear control of dynamic start and static start is completely different."
Lap 24. There is still a long way to go from the entrance of the repair station, but Zhang Guan deliberately slowed down the car and pulled away some distance from the safety car.
As long as the safety car has not returned to the maintenance area, all the cars on the track cannot overtake. All Zhang Guan even Zhang Guan slowed down the speed, and some of the following cars cannot be overtaken, and they can only slow down.
The Zhang Guan has two major advantages in doing this. It increases the distance from the safety car, which means that he will have more room to accelerate, and it is easier to control the rhythm. Because Zhang Guan is the first car, he can take the lead in choosing the acceleration point when the safety car is about to go back, while other cars can only wait for Zhang Guan to accelerate before choosing to follow up.
"Zhang Guan is controlling the rhythm and doing a good job!" Rose Brown breathed a sigh of relief.
The safety car is getting closer and closer to the entrance of the repair station, while the Zhang Guan is getting farther and farther away from the safety car.
Turning around turn 16, the safety car was approaching the entrance of the depot, and at this time Zhang Guan suddenly started to accelerate.
Zhang Guan is not worried that his acceleration will exceed the safety car. He already has a certain distance from the safety car. When he catches up with this distance, the safety car has already run into the repair station.
Vettel following the car is not stupid. He knows that Zhang Guan will definitely choose the strategy of early acceleration, but he can’t predict when Zhang Guan will accelerate, and as long as the safety car is still on the track, he can’t overtake. In this regard, he is in a passive position.
Vettel focused on the front Zhang Guan. When Zhang Guan accelerated, Vettel chose to accelerate the first time. The driver’s reaction was still (very tǐng) fast. On the surface, the two seemed to accelerate at the same time. .
But the Zhang Guan in front is a slowdown, and the safety car has not yet turned to the entrance of the maintenance area.
Vettel had to slow down as well. He couldn't overtake, otherwise he was fouled. Even if he surpassed the past, he had to give up his place, and he might have to be punished.
However, at this time, Zhang Guan stepped on the accelerator again, and this time, Vettel did not respond as fast as before.
"Oops, it's a good deal!" Vettel already understood at this point that the first acceleration of Zhang Guan was just (attracting yòu) the enemy's plan. Zhang Guan accelerated and accelerated again, forcing itself to slow down, while Zhang Guan took advantage of Accelerate again in this neutral gear.
Vettel’s reaction was one second slower than before, but in the Formula One competition, one second is already a long way off. Vettel was again left behind by Zhang Guan (身shēn).
However, two of Ferrari's cars have not been able to surpass the front. Whether they are Zhang Guan or Vettel, they are fast enough. The Mercedes engine used by China Force Team is not inferior to the straight Ferrari, and the excellent aerodynamic design of Red Bull Racing also makes Ferrari less than half the price.
They all successfully passed the first corner, but Renault Piquet rushed out of the track on the Zhang Guan corner and was planted into the sandstone buffer zone.
Temporarily restored calm on the track, the leading Zhang Guan once again pulled away from the second place Vettel, and then started to move forward at his own pace.
......
"It's like this again!" Vettel looked at the Zhang Guan in front. When he passed here last lap, there was not such a big gap with Zhang Guan, and when this lap passed the same position again, they The gap between them has widened a lot, which is the same as the beginning of the game.
"Can't catch up, you can't catch up at all! Our gap is widened again!" The fire of hope in Vettel's heart was once again extinguished. He thought that the appearance of a safety car could help him. It now appears that the safety car has no effect. Zhang Guan is still at the forefront.
Vettel’s original plan was to continuously press Zhang Guan during the game, ((force bī)bī) forced Zhang Guan to make mistakes, but to do this, first of all, he had to be able to catch up with Zhang Guan. He once again fell into a lap behind a second.
It seems that the safety car is not a variable at all, it just slows down the pace of the game.
......
On lap 32, Ferrari's Massa took the lead in the second pit stop to refuel, this pit stop was much slower than people thought. His last pit stop was on lap 10, which was equivalent to running another 22 laps on the track. If it were not for the safety car to lead everyone to four laps, he would not be able to stick to so many laps.
Ferrari's pit stop also kicked off a pit stop for a team~IndoMTL.com~ Other teams have chosen to stop.
On the 46th lap, Zhang Guan led the second-place Vettel nearly 20 seconds. He chose to pit and refuel. On the same lap, Vettel also chose to pit and refuel. At this time, there were 12 laps left until the end of the race. The team did not hesitate to replace Zhang Guan with super soft tires.
After Zhang Guan came out of the maintenance area, he still ranked first, and now he still uses super-soft tires, which means that his number one is no longer shaken.
......
"The first place is stable." Ross Brown leaned on the back of the chair with a relief expression on his face (love qíng).
For a new team, the first game is really too important. It is very impressive for Rose Brown to be able to win the first game and even win the championship. Gratified.
At this time, new changes have appeared on the track.
A red Ferrari stopped slowly on the side of the road. (To be continued~^~)
