Chapter 349: I Beat Myself? (Alliance Leader 'Wenyou' +3/5)
β......β
Ning Yan looked at the expression on Yan Zhi's face and gradually became strange, and she had a feeling that she didn't know how to describe it.
It's an expression of seeing something dramatic happen.
Ning Yan thought so in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "What happened?"
"Are you going to be banned from the next round of F1?"
Yan Zhi looked at Ning Yan with a smile: "Scared?"
"I know I'm afraid I dared to drive so fast just now! β
In the end, he still told Ning Yan the truth.
"There's something interesting happening, I'll show you the live video interview. β
The audio-visual entertainment equipment in the lounge is still very complete.
Yan Zhi operated, and a related video was released on the TV.
"Five minutes ago, Bugatti unveiled its new model at the Motor Show in Frankfurt. β
"Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+. β
"Coincidentally, on the official announcement, this is the world's first supercar to break the speed of 300 miles per hour!"
Ning Yan: "......"
"I hit myself?"
Truth be told, it's like a bad joke.
The man in front of the camera is Bugatti's president, Stephen Winckelmann, who said that on the 3rd of last month, Bugatti was on the Volkswagen secret test track to make Bugatti set a new speed record again with Le Mans winner and Bugatti test driver Andy Wallace. β
"It was the first supercar to break the speed of 300 miles per hour. β
Because the live interview video is in English, Yan Zhi can directly translate it for Ning Yan.
Ning Yan could see that the camera turned to the supercar parked there from time to time.
Mottled marks all over the body.
Symbolizes the speed of its journey of conquest.
The flashing lights were in one piece, and the sound of rattling came from the TV.
Although Ning Yan couldn't understand English, he could still understand the excited movements and expressions on the scene.
So......
What is this thing called?
"Bugatti has once again demonstrated what it is capable of! a new speed record, 304.733 mph. β
"Well, it's about 490 kilometers per hour. β
"We're entering new and uncharted territory, and our goal is to be the first supercar manufacturer to reach a limit speed of 300 miles per hour, and we've now done that β and we're incredibly proud of ourselves, our whole team, and myself!"
"With this new world record, Bugatti will also be out of the race to produce the fastest supercar in the series, we have proven many times that we are building the fastest car in the world, and we will focus on other areas in the future. β
Yan Zhi translated sentence by sentence.
"Oh, Bugatti won't be chasing surface speed in the future. β
"Well, next is an interview with Andy Wallace, a former Le Mans racer and Bugatti test driver. Yan Zhi said.
Ning Yan: "......"
It's really kind of embarrassing.
490 km/h is really fast.
But......
Ning Yan remembered that a few minutes ago, there was a car with a speed of 498 kilometers per hour, and it was moving steadily for more than 30 seconds.
This can already be considered a stable limit speed.
"That's a bit of that, how come it's just the time to release a new car. β
Yan Zhi replied, "Because it's the 110th anniversary." β
"Also, don't you see that not only Bugatti, but also many other manufacturers are also releasing new cars?"
β......β
"Don't say anything, I'll translate for you what the racer said. β
Yan Zhi listened carefully and translated to Ning Yan sentence by sentence.
β...... Incredible speed, it is unthinkable for a car to be able to do this. β
β...... But, Chiron was well prepared and I felt safe, even if it was within the range of high speeds. β
β...... I started at 50 km/h and gradually accelerated to 300 km/h and accelerated to top speed to make sure all the conditions were right......"
β...... Even on the first try, I thought it was doable, the car was running well, the track and the weather conditions were ideal, and the whole team did a fantastic job. β
β...... So, after a lap, I came out of the corner at 200 km/h and reached the top speed on the 8.8 km straight......"
β......β
A reporter said: "We know that this is an absolutely amazing world record. β
"We also know that this record has already been certified. β
"We also know that, as President Stephen said, in order to break the world record, Bugatti's R&D director guided the team of engineers from different disciplines, improved aerodynamics, paid a high priority to safety, and created an additional safety element protection for the driver. β
"And it's also very supportive from the tire manufacturer Michelin......
β......β
Listening to these foreshadowings, the fierce atmosphere of the scene began to cool down.
Sure enough, after the foreshadowing, the reporter said.
"A few minutes earlier, several media outlets had reported on another race on the New North circuit, just over 100 kilometers away, which was not recognized by any agency for the time being, but was watched by countless people. β
"Bugatti's La Voiture Noire, which belonged to former Volkswagen Chairman Ferdinand PiΓ«ch, was driven by an unknown driver to hit the latest lap time at the New North circuit. β
"It reached an astonishing 5:09.333. β
Prior to this record, the driver drove a Bugatti La to break the 300 mph record, then pushed the limit speed to 498 km/h and held it for more than 30 seconds, the interview said, the driver said he couldn't get close to 500 km/h no matter how hard he tried. β
"Excuse me, President Stephen, Mr. Wallace, do you have anything to say?"
"Well, this is a live lap video, and for some special reason, all we can get is video footage like this. β
β......β
The roar of the engine began to sound, and electronic counters and so on faithfully recorded the speed change at each moment.
When the speed indicator on the dashboard broke through 482 km/h, everyone's eyes widened.
When the speed of 498 km/h appeared, everyone began to be dumbfounded.
According to the information at the scene, the car did not undergo any illegal modifications, and even the racers did not make any special preparations, so it drove out naturally. β
Stephen was stunned.
Wallace was also stunned.
Many people at the scene were stunned.
Immediately afterwards, the scene began to be noisy, and there was an uproar.
It was such a coincidence that it all happened.
"Bugatti La?"
"A new world record?"
"New North Circuit?"
"An unknown driver?"
"No driver information?"
β......β
The crowd of onlookers quickly seized on all the key information.
Every piece of information has a new impact on the scene.
The biggest change in the face of this is former Le Mans winner Andy Wallace, Bugatti test driver.
He was not ready to accept the baptism of everyone's eyes, and the bombshell news fell like this.
======
Broken bowls.
