www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of automotive black technology!
While everyone was stamping their feet anxiously for Li Fanyu’s inhumane bet that seemed to have a very low winning rate, F1’s official betting information had been updated on the big screen of the live broadcast.
In an instant, the commentator used an excited tone as if his wife had run away with someone, and shouted Omaika at the top of his lungs.
"Oh my God! Friends, the latest betting information has just been officially updated. The two drivers of the Williams team have accumulated 11 million pounds and 10.7 million pounds respectively! Oh my god, This must be a wealthy person who spent a lot of money just now! You know, as of five minutes ago, the favorite to win this station, Mercedes-Benz's Hamilton, only invested 8 million pounds!"
"Oh? Ah! Okay, friends, we have just received confirmation that the new shareholder of the Williams team, Mr. Li Fanyu, purchased the gambling tickets of two drivers of his team for 1,010 pounds each. . As everyone knows, our lottery will donate 2% of each game to the Red Cross for donations to children in poor areas of the world. The official lottery expresses its sincere gratitude to Mr. Li Fanyu for his generosity. I hope the Williams team will achieve good results in this competition! ”
Seeing that the official had given the confirmed information, Cheng Ke took a long breath and lowered his head deeply.
"It's over. Losing 20 million is a trivial matter. Now everyone knows that you bought a lottery. It would be embarrassing if the loss was ugly."
Lou Lu and Chen Chen were completely stunned. Although the two adults were already official FE drivers, they still couldn't understand the concept of using their three years' salary to buy two lottery tickets.
I can only say...my boss is really too tough.
After hearing the explanation, the entire stadium was filled with excitement, but there were more whistles and boos. It can be seen that people are really not optimistic about the Williams team in this game.
It was at this moment that the commentator drew everyone's attention back to the game.
After about five minutes of preparation, as the lights at the starting point turned off and on at the same time, the race began!
Silverstone is a track that many F1 drivers are familiar with. For many drivers based in the UK, it is even more familiar. Many teams will rent the Silverstone circuit for car testing.
After the indicator lights came on, more than twenty racing cars roared and rushed out of the starting point.
Because it is a practice session, the test is more about the reaction and lap speed of the tires on the current track, current settings, and current temperature. Testing of new factory-developed packages including power, aerodynamic packages, mechanical packages, etc. may even be a feasibility test.
So everyone was not in a hurry to compete for position, and they were all warming up the tires slowly.
In the Mercedes-Benz No. 1 car, Hamilton is planning his trip.
The straight section at the starting point of the track is not too long, but you can accelerate from the last Woodcote corner until you reach the bottom of the road in 6th gear with an average speed of 305km/h, and then retreat to 5th gear to average Passing the first Copse bend at a high speed of 240km/h;
This section of the track is a comprehensive test of the overall performance of the car.
So after the warm-up, Hamilton immediately accelerated in an attempt to rush to the leading position and test the car's acceleration performance before the copse corner.
In front of him is the No. 2 car of the Williams team. The driver is Almondo, who has just been promoted from F3000 this season and obtained a super license.
Having been competing in F1 for ten years, Hamilton has used his own strength to prove who is the king on the track, so he doesn't care about a rookie who is just starting out.
Directly adjust the front of the car, increase the revs and accelerate in an attempt to overtake Amondero.
But he didn't know that at this time, Amondero had already regarded him as the target of the practice match.
Seeing Hamilton behind him accelerate suddenly, Amondero also stepped on the accelerator to the floor and quickly increased the speed of the car; in just an instant, the speed of the car soared from 185KM to 255KM!
Hamilton, who was accelerating at full speed, felt that the car in front of him was suddenly far away from him, which made him lose his mind for a moment;
You know, he was accelerating at full speed just now. According to the usual track performance of the Mercedes-Benz engine, even if he cannot surpass the Williams car using the previous generation Mercedes-Benz engine in a short time, he will definitely not be taken advantage of. What a huge distance!
In such a moment of distraction, the car had already arrived before the copse corner. During this period, the two cars passed a total of seven cars one after another and reached the front row.
At this time, Hamilton was surprised to find that his speed had reached 300KM, and he was still far away from the car in front!
"FK!"
He cursed softly and raised the rpm again. I stopped accelerating when I saw the car in front entering the braking point and its taillights flashing.
The two cars entered the curve at a speed of nearly 200KM, one behind the other.
After the copse curve, there is a short acceleration section.
Hamilton stared at the car in front, with huge doubts almost rising in his heart.
And those who had the same doubts as him were the technical directors of the Mercedes-Benz team.
Tactical Director McGregor has noticed the battle between Amondero and Hamilton. Seeing that his own driver fell behind in this small competition, he keenly felt that the Williams team's car , which has changed a lot compared to the first half of the season.
"Lewis, accelerate at full speed on the next acceleration section and look at the top speed of the car in front!"
"Copy that!" Hamilton responded in a muffled voice, thinking the same thing in his heart. Testing your own car in practice sessions is the core, but observing the performance of your opponents and gathering information for qualifying and the race is equally important.
The short curve was quickly passed. At the moment when he ran out of the curve, Hamilton used his skillful operation to accelerate with all his strength without any lag, and rushed forward!
The huge engine sound resounded throughout the field and also alerted Amondero in the car in front.
Because his car speed was a bit high when entering the corner, he reduced the amount of fuel during the corner. At this time, the speed of the car was not high. The moment he came out of the bend, his posture was a little sluggish.
Because before the practice session, the team gave itself instructions not to drive violently and to test the suitability of the engine and car adjustments with the temperature and road conditions of the Silverstone track, so Amondero had some hesitation after exiting the corner. .
It was this gap that allowed Hamilton behind him to seize the opportunity.
Slow and fast, within a few breaths, Hamilton quickly caught up with the two cars and moved forward!
Just as he was hesitating whether to continue fighting Hamilton or follow the team's tactics, his headset rang.
The team's technical director gave the highest instructions there, "Overtake Hamilton, stay in the lead all the way, and see the limits of the car!"
The next moment, a moment that Hamilton will never forget, happened.
A scene that shocked the entire audience and everyone involved in the team happened.
I saw the Williams Racing Team's No. 2 car sluggish after the corner and suddenly accelerated when the speed was obviously not dominant. With the roar of the engine, it reversed course in an instant, firmly surpassing Hamilton's car that had just won the championship for the team last season!
At this moment...
The whole place was silent!
