Saturday afternoon is the main time for the f1 European Grand Prix.
The Valencia circuit can accommodate more than 100,000 spectators, but today, the stands around the circuit are already full.
The vast majority of Spaniards are of course fans of Alonso, so there are a lot of supporters of Alonso on the scene. They waved the Spanish flag and supporters of their own compatriots. The foreign audience is almost to witness Schumacher's comeback. It can be said that this stop, as Schumacher's comeback battle, has already touched the hearts of sports fans all over the world.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the green light in the maintenance area lights up, and the first qualifying session begins.
When Schumacher appeared on the track while driving the red Ferrari, it immediately attracted the attention of all spectators, whether it was other drivers running on the track or drivers waiting in the maintenance area to leave the car , All reduced to Schumacher's background, the TV broadcast lens is also to follow the picture of Schumacher throughout, and to follow Schumacher's timing circle.
"Schumacher looks like a sword, although he is forty years old, but his speed is not behind those young people."
"After three years of absence, I came back and thought that Schumacher had lost the feeling of racing, but now it seems that he has at least returned to the level of ordinary drivers."
On the track, Schumacher refreshed his fastest lap speed in one lap, from 1 minute and 42 seconds, to 1 minute and 41 seconds, to 1 minute and 40 seconds, Schumacher has reached the first The threshold for qualifying in the second quarter.
Finally, Schumacher ran out of Lu Yuge's 1 minute, 39 seconds and 082 results. This result was on the Valencivar track, enough for him to qualify for the second quarter. The car king was also very satisfied with this result. Instead of continuing to impact better results, he chose to return to the maintenance area.
In the second quarter of qualifying, Schumacher's performance is still stable. He not only successfully ran within 1 minute and 39 seconds, but also ranked in the top ten, successfully entered the third quarter of qualifying, Shu The first goal set by Mach himself before the game has been achieved.
Ferrari's cars are fairly competitive in Valencia, but they are not the strongest. At the Valencia circuit, the two strongest teams are China Power and McLaren. It is worth mentioning that both teams use Mercedes-Benz engines.
Mercedes-Benz’s engine is very suitable for this track. Even in the third quarter of qualifying, the cars have been added with racing oil, and their cars can still run within 1 minute 39 seconds 5 . For example, Barrichello, his score is exactly 1 minute 39 seconds 500, this lap speed is faster than fifth place Vettel 0.289 seconds.
However, Barrichello finally took the third place. The defending champion Hamilton surpassed Barrichello by 0.002 seconds. But Hamilton is close to 0.1 second from the first Zhang Guan. Zhang Guan, who has not tasted the championship for two consecutive times, once again took pole position.
China Power and McLaren took the top four, with Vettel in fifth place, Ferrari’s two cars ranked sixth and seventh respectively, followed by Renault’s Alonso.
As a native Spanish player, Alonso is only ranked eighth in home combat. This is obviously not good for a world championship driver, but at the level of Renault Racing this year, he can take It's not bad to be eighth.
As for the car king Schumacher, he gave everyone a big surprise. He ranked seventh. For a three-year old veteran who has been away from the car world and is already 40 years old, he can drive With a car that does not belong to him, defeating a group of young people who can be his son and entering the top eight points is already a big achievement.
And tomorrow's Main Sail Lee, Schumacher and Alonso both started in the same row, and the two old enemies will fight again after three years, which is enough for the media to make a lot of topics.
......
On August 23, the main race of the f1 European Grand Prix kicked off.
Hamilton was sitting on the car with great fighting spirit. The second place in qualifying was his best result in qualifying this season. And this ranking also made him look forward to winning the championship.
After all, Hamilton was the world champion last season. Originally, he was confident that he wanted that two consecutive championships. However, the rise of Chinese power and Red Bull made him only ranked fifth in the standings. position. Now that the season has passed halfway through, Hamilton has missed the championship, but he very much hopes that he can get a championship, to prove that he is not a flash in the pan.
Benefiting from the Mercedes-Benz engine, the McLaren team showed a strong competitiveness in this race, but the beneficiaries are not only McLaren, but also Chinese power, and Zhang Guan is still Hamilton won the biggest competitor of the substation championship.
"I want to win, I must win this stop, and finally got the opportunity to start in the front row, I will fight once!" Hamilton couldn't help but encourage himself.
The five red lights went out, the game started, Hamilton started the first time, and the Zhang Guan next to it was not much more than that.
"The corner is mine!" Hamilton stubbornly grabbed the corner and he almost touched the Zhang Guan car.
"Danger!" even the commentator shouted uncontrollably.
Hamilton's so tough grabbing road also surprised Zhang Guan. He knew that Hamilton was dangerous in driving. This black kid doesn't want to die, he really dares to fight both sides, and he hasn't tasted the championship in two stations. The Zhang Guan obviously did not want to be knocked out at the beginning of the game, he chose to give Hamilton the corner.
"I succeeded! Entered the corner first and grabbed the first!" Hamilton felt a ecstasy in his heart. He felt that his first championship this year had already started beckoning to him.
However, Hamilton’s happiness did not last long, because the next second he found that Zhang Guan had been posted and began to try to surpass.
"Want to overtake? I won't let you overtake it." Hamilton immediately began to recall the characteristics of Zhang Guan's overtaking technology, and then prepared to make a targeted defense, but at this time he only discovered that his technology for Zhang Guan overtaking Know nothing about the characteristics.
......
Each driver’s driving style is different, and the technical characteristics when overtaking are also different. Some drivers like to grab lines, some drivers like to brake late, and some drivers like to use tactical shaking to confuse opponents. And if you know that the other party is good at overtaking, you can carry out targeted defense, which can reduce the disadvantage of defenders in offense and defense.
Among the eight f1 championships won by Zhang Guan so far, except Malaysia, which used a set of tires to run the rain, the others are all leading the race, which is the first start, and then lead all the way. To the end. As for the champion of Malaysia, the main advantage is to rely on not getting into the station to change tires, which is a strategic surpass.
It can be said that Zhang Guan has shown an excellent leading level, but in terms of overtaking, it has not shown much. So Hamilton does not have the technical characteristics of Zhang Guan in overtaking.
"The guy at Zhang Guan has always been the frontrunner, even overtaking is also a slow train that gets lapped. Damn, f1 has been in the past half of the season. I don’t even know how the top driver is overtaking. "!" Hamilton felt an absurd feeling.
Zhang Guan began to put pressure on Hamilton, pressure and wait for opponents to make mistakes, which is something that some experienced veteran drivers often do. Hamilton knows this well, but he is helpless because he has no idea of the technical characteristics of Zhang Guan at the time of overtaking, so he cannot judge when Zhang Guan will overtake. He can only guard against it all the time.
The so-called not afraid of being stolen by thieves is afraid of being remembered by thieves, especially if you know that you are remembered by thieves, you will always think about how to prevent thieves. The same is true of Hamilton now. Although he is the front runner, he cannot play at his own pace. Zhang Guan always hangs behind him, making him have to devote a lot of energy to defend.
In the f1 race, the front runner is easy to shake off the driver behind him, because there is no other car in front of the front runner, he can run at his own pace without worrying about being suppressed by other cars. While the second-ranked man is subject to the front runner, he will also be attacked by the third behind. The second defensive third will consume some energy, so the speed will slow down and be thrown away by the front runner.
But Barrichello is third today. Barrichello is obviously impossible to surpass his boss, and he has to help the boss to block behind the car as much as possible, so Zhang Guan does not have to worry about overtaking at the back. You can concentrate on dealing with Hamilton.
Barrichello is behind Kovalainen. The young teenager is very aggressive, but his experience is far worse than that of Barrichello, who has more than ten years of Formula 1 experience. Experience can play a double role in defense. Kovalainen can hardly surpass Barrichello without a big gap between the two cars.
The car running in front is struggling, and the car behind it will naturally catch up, just like driving on the road, the speed limit is 50 kilometers, and the front car must be in accordance with 30 kilometers. Running, pressing the car behind is inevitable. In the race, pressing the car means the opportunity to surpass, means more chase, means more struggle.
......
There are battles between racing cars everywhere on the track. You are superior to me, and I am superior to you. Almost every car is in fierce competition, which makes the audience look dazzled and the broadcaster’s guide also I don’t know who to point the camera at, so I can only insert one slow motion after another.
And on the track, the drivers are also passionate. The most attractive aspect of motorsport is not the speed, but the stimulating sensation when overtaking. This is true for the audience and the driver. Any racing driver has a heart that surpasses the previous car, otherwise he cannot be a racing driver. And now the distance between the cars is very close, so that the drivers have found a space to play, and each of them stares at the front, trying to surpass.
Only Hamilton did not feel the passion brought by speed. Others are trying to surpass the front car, but he is always guarding against the Zhang Guan behind.
Hamilton looked at the rearview mirror and estimated the distance between him and Zhang Guan, and there was some irritability in his heart.
"In the last two laps, the route I took was enough, but I still didn’t distance myself from Zhang Guan, it seemed that I couldn’t get rid of him! Get rid of him!"
Hamilton was originally a driver who liked to use the shoulder, that is, his route would go to the limit, so his speed was very fast, but then he sacrificed his own tires. Running style also consumes tires.
And in August in Spain, the weather is also very hot, just like today, the temperature reached 30 degrees, the track temperature is more than 40 degrees, although this is conducive to the racing tires quickly into working condition , But also makes the tires wear much faster.
Sure enough, on lap 16, Hamilton’s headset sounded a reminder from the team’s strategy engineer.
"Lewis, your tires are declining very quickly. If you don’t want to pit in too early, run conservatively!"
"Conservative? How is this possible, Zhang Guan is chasing behind so tightly, his car is fast." Hamilton retorted.
However, Hamilton's voice just fell, but he saw Zhang Guan throwing his head out.
"He wants to surpass? Or is it a temptation?" Hamilton immediately made a defensive move, but his car did not go as he expected.
"Oops! Has the tire's grip started to decay?" Hamilton only felt a red figure chasing beside him, and then overtook it.
"Zhang Guan, overtaken, on lap 16, he surpassed Hamilton and regained the first place!"
......
Barrichello, in third place, is in very good shape today, and because the car’s fuel capacity is getting less and less, the car is getting lighter and lighter, and his speed is getting faster and faster, two consecutive laps, He brushed the fastest lap.
About 20 laps, the light oil car started its first pit stop, and there was not much change in the ranking, and the distance between the drivers was not pulled too much. The opponent can be thrown away on the high-speed track, but it is impossible to lead too much.
On lap 24, Vettel’s car exploded. His engine was replaced at the German station in early July. After passing the German station and the Hungarian station to the European station, the high-speed circuit and the hot weather made the engine overwhelmed and Vettel had to withdraw. After the game, the gap between him and Zhang Guan will also increase.
On lap 37, Barrichello once again refreshed the fastest lap speed. On the same lap, Hamilton pitted. However, the technician changed the tire and made a mistake. Hamilton’s tire change time reached 13.4 seconds, which is more than the estimated time It was slow for four seconds, and Barrichello in the back used the light car to constantly refresh the fastest speed.
On lap 40, Barrichello stepped in and refueled. When he walked out of the maintenance area, he was just ahead of Hamilton by four seconds, which means that McLaren technicians lost four seconds of tire change errors and let Barrichello finish. To surpass Hamilton. And Barrichello, after finishing, ran faster and faster, slowly widening the gap with Hamilton.
Following this, Zhang Guan is the first and Barrichello is the second. China will again take the top two.
......
On lap 42, Zhang Guan also chose to refuel for the second pit stop, which took 10.3 seconds.
However, what made Zhang Guan unexpected was that when he ran out of the maintenance area, a red car happened to pass by him.
"Red, Ferrari?" Zhang Guan took a closer look, but found that it was his teammate Barrichello.
"Good boy, did old Barrichello hit the chicken blood today, and he ran so fast that he gave me over!" Zhang Guan secretly said.
"Barrichello is in front of you. I will make him slower and let you pass at the end of the next straight." Ross Brown's voice came from the headphones.
The team command is an indispensable part of motorsport. It is normal for the second driver to give the first driver a car, not to mention that Zhang Guan is still the owner of the team. .
However, Zhang Guan said, "Let him run down with all his strength!"
"What?" Ross Brown asked inconceivably, not knowing that he didn't hear clearly what Zhang Guan was saying, or did not understand the meaning of Zhang Guan, or both.
"I mean let Barrichello run down! He is also a member of the team, he has been working hard, has been paying for the team, he should taste the taste of a championship." Zhang Guan silently looked ahead , But a smile appeared involuntarily on his face.
......
Barrichello carefully looked at the rearview mirror and recognized that it was Zhang Guan that was running behind.
Barrichello subconsciously felt that he should give up the first position, so he said to the radio: "I will brake early at the end of the next straight to make the corner."
"No need, run with all your strength!" Ross Brown's voice sounded.
"What?" Barrichello also asked the same word inconceivably. I don't know if he didn't hear what Zhang Guan was saying, still didn't understand the meaning of Zhang Guan, or both.
"I mean let you go all out to compete for the championship!" Ross Brown continued.
"Let me take the first place? Are you kidding me?" Barrichello said~IndoMTL.com~ This is not my decision, it is Zhang Guan's decision! "Ross-Brown explained.
"Is there something I did wrong? Should I fire me!" Barrichello suddenly panicked.
"Zhang Guan said, you have been working hard and have been paying for the team, so you should taste the championship." Rose Brown then added: "Well, this is his original word!"
"What does the boss mean?" Barrichello asked for a second before he even changed his name to Zhang Guan into "boss".
"What do you mean? Ha ha ha, it means that the champion of the European station is yours! You are regarded as the reward given by the boss!" Ross Brown said with a smile. (To be continued.)
