Chapter 0768 - First Crown!

At this time, the race has entered the 28th lap, after Schumacher's efforts, the situation on the field has become tense and stalemate, Hakkinen has a slight lead in front of Schumacher, and behind Schumacher, Kuta is also in hot pursuit.

On the Ferrari side, Barrichello, who had pitted for maintenance at the beginning of the race, has also returned to the field at this moment, but he is already a full lap behind Schumacher, and normally Barrichello has lost the chance to compete for the title.

"Schumacher is really good, he refueled once in the middle of the game, and now he is still in second place!"

Hakkinen, who is temporarily in first place, is probably about to lose his current position, and after a few laps, he will have to pit and refuel, and this advantage will definitely be surpassed in an instant. ”

"If Schumacher continues to play according to his current strategy, he will probably be the winner in the end!"

…………

Schumacher's supernatural performance naturally caused bursts of cheers from the audience, and there is no doubt that Schumacher at this time is the most shining star in the audience!

On the edge of the track, McLaren's strategy team is working on various budgets, and must make targeted adjustments to the strategy such as refueling time, otherwise it will be difficult for Hakkinen to maintain the lead.

At the same time, the Tianming team's strategy team is doing similar work to help Schumacher find the best place to overtake Hakkinen.

Although he maintained the lead at this time, Hakkinen knew better than anyone that he was now at the end of his strong crossbow, and it would not be long before Schumacher would overtake him, because there was only a short time left before Hakkinen's next pit stop to refuel.

In addition, what worries Hakkinen the most is that McLaren's car stability has been the team's biggest problem, and it is not uncommon for McLaren to be overtaken by the rest of the team due to mechanical problems.

Originally, Barrichello made an unexpected pit stop at the beginning for maintenance, which made Hakkinen get rid of the last threat of the Ferrari team, even if McLaren's car stability is not good, Hakkinen believes that it will be better than the rest of the team's cars, but who would have thought that Schumacher's TM2000 car may be better than Ferrari's in terms of performance!

In this way, Hakkinen not only lost his advantage in the car, but also could be held back by the stability of the car, and his lead was wasted. Sensing Schumacher getting closer and closer behind him, Hakkinen's hands gripping the steering wheel tighter and tighter.

Compared with Hakkinen's nervousness, although Schumacher's body has been in a tense state at this time, his mood is extremely relaxed, because he knows that he will soon surpass Hakkinen in front of him, and the lead after that will only get bigger and bigger!

Schumacher was behind the wheel and observed the conditions on the track, ready to find the best place to overtake.

This is the time!

When Hakkinen and Schumacher came to the third turn of the track at the same time, Hakkinen's right side of the track line just showed a gap for a while, Schumacher's eyes lit up, and he stepped on the accelerator under his feet, and the TM2000 immediately roared over!

Overtaking in corners!

Just in a flash of light, Schumacher appeared in front of Hakkinen and returned to the first position!

After returning to the first place, Schumacher did not dare to be careless, and continued to move forward at a high speed, and at this time, there was also an exciting news on the radio:

"In real time, Schumacher of Tianming Racing Team has set a new record for the fastest lap at Albert Park!"

Such a lap record is faster than the fastest lap record set by Schumacher for Ferrari at the Albert Park circuit in 2004 before Zhou Jingming's rebirth!

Schumacher's record is now the fastest lap record in Australia for the next decade, a record that no one has been able to beat.

The audience became frantic again, and the audience chanted the name "Schumacher" almost at the same time.

"Just set the highest car speed and now set the fastest lap record, is this the worthless Schumacher who was criticized by the media a few days ago?"

"The overtaking in the corner was so exciting, I felt like my blood was going to burn!"

"Schumacher is awesome!"

…………

The audience did not hesitate to express their appreciation for Schumacher.

"Congratulations to Mr. Zhou, this time the Australian championship will be taken away by Schumacher. Paul, who was in the stands, said to Zhou Jingming with a smile.

Schumacher can have such a performance, to be honest, Paul is not surprised, but what really surprised Paul is the Tianming team's car, judging from the performance just now, Schumacher can have the current leading position, and the team's car is definitely indispensable!

After the first year of competition, such a high-performance car can be built, and after that, isn't there another myth on the Formula 1 field?

Paul had a hunch that after the end of the "Ferrari Dynasty", a new "Tianming Dynasty" would soon be established.

"Mr. Chairman said with a smile, the game is just over halfway, is it too early to say that you have won the championship?" Zhou Jingming smiled and waved his hand, and replied very modestly.

"Mr. Zhou doesn't need to be modest, as long as there are no accidents, the champion will definitely be yours, and when the time comes, you can't forget me at the celebration banquet in the evening. Paul said with a smile.

Zhou Jingming smiled and did not continue to answer, all of Schumacher's performances were only expected by Zhou Jingming, and what really surprised Zhou Jingming was Fei Xiaotian, another driver of the Tianming team!

At this time, Fei Xiaotian was already ranked sixth!

For the first time, he was able to have such a good performance, how could Zhou Jingming not be surprised?

Even if Tianming Racing Team can't win the constructors' championship this year, if Fei Xiaotian is allowed to experience another season, next season, Tianming Racing Team, which has Schumacher and Fei Xiaotian, will definitely be the most powerful contender for the consignment championship!

On lap 38, Hakkinen did his second refueling, and Schumacher took the opportunity to extend his lead to 10 seconds!

The McLaren team's refueling time this time was as high as 8.3 seconds, which made Schumacher have an unexpected gain, taking advantage of the cumulative advantage of the pit stop refueling, Schumacher continued to expand his lead, and the championship was almost no suspense.
