As soon as Zhang Guan got off the plane, he was blocked by He Yiming.

"Brother, why did you come to Singapore?" Zhang Guan asked with some surprise.

"The European competition is a little far away, I can't go, Singapore is so close, of course I have to come over and see it in person for you!" He Yiming smiled, and said Zhang Guan aside with a smile. Then the voice suddenly became solemn.

"Did your kid offend someone again?" He Yiming asked.

"Offend people? No! I'm such a good person, how can I offend people!" Zhang Guan thought again, and then said: "In addition to the 500 million dollars that the Maria family owes me, there is Seba. The guy Stian was scorched by me, yes, and Honda was punished by me, and no one else resented me!"

"This still calls someone who hasn't offended?" He Yiming shook his head helplessly, and then said: "Someone wants to fight you."

"A fight? What does it mean? Boxing? Who is it?" Zhang Guan asked several questions in a row.

"Ruslan Chagayev, nicknamed "Bai Tyson", have you heard of it?" He Yiming asked.

"I heard that a Uzbekistan heavyweight champion and WBA gold belt winner is known as Tyson’s successor. So people gave him the nickname'Bai Tyson'. Having said that, I don't know him at all, I shouldn't offend him, why should he fight me?" Zhang Guan said.

"Then it seems that what Chagayev said is true." He Yiming continued: "The reason given by Chagayev is to see your butterfly step, so I hope to talk to you Playing a friendly game, he knows that you are now participating in the F1 game, so he said he can wait, the time and place are up to you. In addition, he also said that you can bring protective gear. Listening to this posture, it seems true I want to play a friendly match with you."

"Let’s think about it, let’s figure out whether Chagaev has any other intentions. And even if it is really going to be played, it has to wait until the end of the F1 season. The Singapore station is a night fight, I still Didn't run overnight battle!" Zhang Guan said.

......

The Singapore Grand Prix, which began last year, set the precedent for the Formula One night battle. Before the Singapore Grand Prix, the car race was never held at night.

With the area of ​​the racing track, it is obviously a very expensive matter to want to completely cover a racing track with lights, and it is more than a loss to press the street lights for the racing track based on the utilization rate of the racing track. The main reason why the Singapore Grand Prix can open the night battle mode is because it is a street race. The venue is located at Marina Bay, the southernmost point of Singapore, and it is also the most prosperous place in Singapore at night. Even at night, it is surrounded by lights. In order to adapt to the F1 competition, Singapore has specially laid a special lighting cable for this place, installed more than 1,600 spotlights, and the brightness on the track can reach four times that of ordinary stadiums.

Since it is a street race, it naturally has the characteristics of a street race. The track is narrow and curved, and it is not easy to overtake. In fact, the same is true. There are 23 corners in the Singapore circuit, and one of them is still a block. This is very rare in F1. At the level of an F1 driver, the second gear is already a very slow speed. Except for the start, the driver will not drive in the first gear at all, and Singapore’s turn 13 is for most drivers. You must lower the gear to first gear to make a corner.

In such a multi-turn circuit, the downforce of the car has become a very important factor in the race. Obviously, this Haicang race has become a competition between Chinese forces and Red Bull Racing. China Power has the most perfect double diffuser, which can allow the car to get more downforce, so as to gain an advantage in the curve, and Red Bull's car has the most perfect aerodynamics, which is also a huge advantage on this track.

Ferrari, who was eye-catching on the first two high-speed circuits, lost competitiveness after coming to Singapore. At least in the practice session, the performance of the two Ferrari drivers was very average. Even the car king Schumacher did not Show the dominance of the first two stations.

Zhang Guan is the first time to participate in the game at night, but when he boarded the track, he found that it was no different from the daytime competition, at least the line of sight was not affected, even better than the rain battle. The only difference is that the sky is white during the day and the sky is black at night.

"No wonder everyone says that Singapore's night battle is just a gimmick!" Zhang Guan thought to himself.

For a racing driver, the night race is the same as the day race. Even the roadside signs on the roadside have become more conspicuous due to reflective reasons, and all that remains of the Singapore station is the gimmick of "night fight". .

The predictions before the game all believe that Singapore will be the two strongest Chinese forces and Red Bull Racing. However, in the qualifying, a spoiler-Hamilton of McLaren Racing was killed. The overwhelming praise of Zhang Guan in the media recently clearly spurred Hamilton. Zhang Guan won the championship four races in advance. Hamilton won the championship in the last game last year, and it is still based on the Ferrari team's mistakes. At the same time, Zhang Guan set the record of winning the championship in the first year of competition, and broke the record of Hamilton's first year of competition to win the runner-up. People can't help comparing Zhang Guan with Hamilton, and the final conclusion is that Zhang Guan is better than Hamilton.

Hamilton was originally a strong man. He was the kind of driver who could fight for his own victory and his teammates, so he could not accept the result that he was not as good as Zhang Guan. So he ran very hard in this race. He wants to prove himself with a champion in Singapore.

Hamilton’s speed is really fast, and he is running at the limit. There are a few corners or even turning against the fence wall. You know that this is a street race, and it’s in Singapore, There is no buffer zone as large as the normal track around the road. Basically, the edge of the track is next to the wall. If you accidentally rush out of the track on other tracks, you will enter the buffer zone at most. Although you may lose some time, you can drive the car back, but in Singapore, rushing out of the track means it will hit the wall.

Hamilton’s high-risk running method also gave him a high enough return. No one dared to be as bold as he ran, and he also successfully won the first place in the qualifying race, and will be on the pole. Start.

Second place is Zhang Guan, third place is Vettel, fourth place is Williams’ teenager Rosberg, fifth place is Red Bull’s Weber, Barrichello happened in the qualifying In the crash, fortunately, he has already ran out of a bottoming result and ranked sixth, except that the replacement of the racing parts has to go back ten.

In the race the next day, Hamilton successfully defended the first place when he started, and Zhang Guan encountered Vettel's attack at the beginning of the game. The car on the right side of this track has a stronger grip, so the driver on the right will have an advantage. Vettel is taking advantage of this and wants to surpass Zhang Guan when it starts.

Zhang Guan's successful defense made Vettel unsuccessful, and Hamilton, who was running at the forefront, had been running at his own pace, but could not get rid of the Zhang Guan behind.

This is the Singapore Grand Prix. There are 23 corners in a lap. Before you accelerate, you have to brake to prepare for the corner. It is indeed very difficult to throw off your opponent. The track came much late.

Similarly, it is not easy to overtake at the Singapore circuit. The corners are too narrow. The defender can easily keep his own line. The distance from the 21st turn to the end of the big straight may be the only one in the entire circuit. Where the opportunity to overtake.

Zhang Guan also knows this well, and with Hamilton’s character, perhaps he would rather fight for both defeats and retire, and will forcefully defend his position, so Zhang Guan is not eager to surpass, but constantly like Hamilton The pressure, especially when approaching Turn 21, made an effort to approach Hamilton, giving Hamilton the illusion of overtaking.

Hamilton certainly will not give Zhang Guan a chance to surpass. In order to block Zhang Guan, his route selection for each lap is very limited, and this is the result that Zhang Guan wants. Hamilton's running method is actually a running method with very low fault tolerance. He can't make a little mistake.

Humans are not machines. Of course, mistakes will occur. Zhang Guan is waiting for Hamilton to make mistakes.

Hamilton is under great pressure, but his luck is very good. An accident on the track on the 21st lap caused the safety car to be dispatched. Drivers used this opportunity to pit in and change tires. Hamilton also took this opportunity to slow down. In one breath.

After four laps, the safety car went back and the race started again, and Zhang Guan continued to put pressure on Hamilton. After the thirtieth lap, the Zhang Guan always kept the gap between the two within 1 second. In such a short time, the gap is almost the front of the car in some corners.

Hamilton’s defensive movement is getting bigger and bigger, and his tires are also because of his too aggressive defense, and the wear and tear are more and more serious. In the game, the more the tires wear, the worse the grip, the worse the car. Is difficult to control.

On lap 33, the team has given Hamilton instructions to protect his tires, but Hamilton’s character is obviously not a person who will seriously follow the team’s instructions. He has had a history of breaking the instructions many times, so he naturally Of the team's instructions that the team asked him to protect the tires.

On lap 35, Hamilton paid a price for his willfulness. During a corner, he made a mistake. Seeing that Zhang Guan was about to go, Hamilton immediately eagerly wanted to correct it, but he was overwhelmed. The tires cannot make the car complete the technical moves he needs.

Hamilton did not control his own route. His car and the protective wall came in close contact. The front nose and tires of the car directly rubbed against the protective wall. The rubbing sparks scattered around the night sky when Hamilton controlled After the direction of the car, the price he paid was a front nose, a tire and the first place.

Hamilton did not give up, he still insisted on the track, he hoped to run back to the pit area to replace parts before coming again, but the champion of Singapore station has nothing to do with him.

Zhang Guan completed the second pit stop, replaced with a brand new set of super soft tires enough to allow him to run to the end of the game.

......

The Singapore Grand Prix, Zhang Guan eventually won the championship. The Japanese Grand Prix was followed by a back-to-back race. The team flew to Japan on Monday.

For Zhang Guan, Japan will have a special meaning. The FIA ​​is here to award the trophy for the Zhang Guan annual championship.

The previous award ceremonies were held in Europe, and the time was also at the end of the season, but this year the first driver championship from Asia was born for the first time, and even the team championship has nothing to do with Europe. The FIA ​​is very interested. Will advance the award ceremony and arrange it in Asia.

The reason why I chose Japan this year is because it is relatively close to China. Chinese car fans can personally arrive at the scene to witness this historic moment. Of course, Singapore is not far away, but Singapore is a night battle. After the game, it is already late at night, and the time is not conducive to the viewing habits of the Chinese audience. However, there is only one hour difference between Japan and China. After the Grand Prix of Japan, it is just the supper time of the Chinese audience, and it is also the weekend. The ratings are guaranteed.

During the 11th Golden Week, many Chinese car fans poured into the audience. Some travel agencies even launched a special "racing tour", and tickets have long been difficult to obtain.

Japan is the only country in Asia with a history of racing. First, the Japanese auto industry is very strong, with Toyota and Honda holding two world-class car manufacturers; second, Japan’s economic development, so it started racing earlier~IndoMTL.com~ Asia’s only formula car The game also appeared in Japan.

The previous Japanese Grand Prix was held at Fuji Speedway, which is owned by Toyota, but was later replaced by Suzuka Circuit because of insecurity. The owner of Suzuka Circuit is Honda.

However, this year's Japanese Grand Prix has an indescribable taste for Honda. Zhang Guan is going to be crowned here, and China Power will also get the trophy of the team championship here, and this Chinese power that won the double championship is precisely the burden that Honda has thrown out.

My own bad assets, in the hands of others, have become double champions, and have to be crowned on their own territory. This is really ironic for Honda.

And Zhang Guan also seems to specifically trouble Honda, he won the Japanese Grand Prix. Since the start of Belgium, Zhang Guan has created another four consecutive championships.

The award ceremony seemed to be a one-man show for Zhang Guan. First, as the champion of the Japanese Grand Prix, he opened champagne to celebrate, and then he had to participate in another award ceremony, holding up the trophy symbolizing the championship of the year.

On October 19, at the Brazilian Grand Prix, Barrichello won the first place in the qualifying game. His good condition also continued to the main game, but in the second half of the game, Barrichello took the initiative The first position was given to Zhang Guan, and Zhang Guan successfully reached the top.

Barrichello is a Brazilian, and he is willing to make such a big sacrifice at home, obviously there is a purpose. After winning in Brazil, Zhang Guan has won 13 championships this season, which equals the record set by Schumacher in 2004. The F1 race still has the last stop, ending in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. If Zhang Guan can win the championship, it will surpass Schumacher and complete the record of 14 wins in the season! (To be continued.)
