On both sides of the track, after a moment of confusion, there was applause.

Li Fanyu used a circle of hurricane that can almost be recorded in the annals of history, and made a perfect test for Zhengxin fetype!

Amondreau was still in shock.

Although he lacks experience, he is quite confident when it comes to technology. When I tested it on this track with the No. 2 car, I felt that there were always some technical shortcomings. But in his opinion, the technical shortcomings will definitely not make his test scores so different from Li Fanyu's!

1 minute 9 seconds, 59 seconds. This is equivalent to half the length of many tracks in the race, and the difference between the two is a full ten seconds!

What is this concept?

If you are in the middle of the race, you will be deducted after six laps!

"It can't be!"

Before Li Fanyu went far, Amondello directly took off his coat, quickly changed into a flame-retardant suit and put on a helmet, and then boarded the No. 2 car that had been pushed to the side of the road by the Agency.

"What are you going to do, Mondstadt?" asked Claire on the side.

Amondreau did not answer, directly buckled up his seat belt, and used the team's internal communication to apply for a test on the command platform.

Previously, Claire had already sensed that Amondero was not in the right form today. Fearing that something would happen to her driver, and fearing damage to the car and engine that had just been assembled, she immediately trotted over.

Seeing that Claire wanted to stop her, Li Fanyu stopped her.

"Let him go. Wasn't the original plan for today to be tested by Amondelho?"

Seeing the certainty on Li Fanyu's face, Claire looked at the track worriedly.

Under the guidance of the command platform, Amondello quickly completed the preparations and drove out in the No. 2 car.

It turns out that although the Mercedes-Benz engine used by the team is the previous generation version eliminated by the Mercedes-Benz team, it is not weak in tuning and performance.

And that engine brought a championship for the Mercedes-Benz team, so Amondreau trusted the previous Mercedes-Benz engine. That's why he's resistant to new engines.

But when the car started, he felt the more surging power and faster response than the old engine, and his obsession was shattered at this moment.

Soon, driving car number two, Amondello finished a lap.

Because he was not in a calm mood, he felt that the lap was not very good, and it was not even as average as before.

Measured by technical performance, Amondro set himself a time range of 1 minute 13 to 14 seconds.

But when he parked the No. 2 car at the starting point, took off his helmet and saw the huge number on the LED display, he was stunned!

"1:08.11?!!

In this moment, happiness is like a bullet of happiness that concentrates on Amondello's chest.

It was as if he saw the F1 Drivers' Championship beckoning to him, as if he saw champagne and flowers, and he slowly walked towards the podium of his dreams. It's like seeing F1 boss Bernie put the best driver and lifetime achievement trophy in his hands, as if he feels that all his dreams are a big leap from reality!

……

The next day, the Williams team officially held a press conference.

At the press conference, three things were mainly said;

First, the change of team management was announced, and the official name of the team was changed from Williams Racing to Zhengxin Williams Racing with immediate effect.

The second is that the team decided to terminate the power cooperation agreement with Mercedes-Benz after careful consideration. Although they have parted ways, the general manager Claire is still grateful for the technical help that Mercedes has given to the Williams team for more than three consecutive seasons.

The third and most critical thing is that the team has officially decided to completely replace the Fetype powertrain provided by Zhengxin XCAR.

In response to the decision, Amondero, the team's No. 2 driver who attended the press conference, expressed his feelings.

"I'm looking forward to seeing the new engine on the field!"

When asked by reporters about the team's management changes and whether the team's shareholder changes will have an impact on the drivers, Amonkello's answer surprised some reporters who wanted to dig up similar news about "discord within the team";

"First of all, I would like to say that Lee is a great driver, and secondly, he is a discerning investor. It's a shame that we can't play alongside Lee in Formula 1, but rather work together as a driver and an investor. And I have to say that Masin has brought what I consider to be the best engine in Formula 1 to Williams. The team will have an impressive second half of the season, and my teammates and I are convinced of that!"

The press conference ended amid great suspicion among journalists who love conspiracy theories.

Immediately, all sorts of news about the Williams team spread through the media;

"The Williams team officially changed its name, and the first shot after Zhengxin became the owner was really aimed at the Mercedes-Benz engine!"

"Amondreau is crazy about calling for the new boss, Li Fanyu buys people's hearts, or is the team unified for the new owner?"

"Zhengxin Group entered F1 through capital operation, and Williams Racing became Zhengxin Engine Proving Ground. Mouse Amondello said at the press conference that he was satisfied with the new owner and the new engine. ”

"The second half of the F1 season is approaching, is the big change in the Williams team the beginning of the old tree or the downhill road?"

For a while, the outside world was constantly discussing Chen Jianda's action of the Wei team.

However, the convoy at the center of the storm closed its doors after this press conference and cancelled all activities. The team's proving ground is busy every day, with both drivers in the team testing new power traditions and familiarizing themselves with the new car.

The intensity of the test is staggering. Almost every day, the team has to break two new multimillion-dollar Type engines.

Zhengxin Group has finally taken action.

The XCAR segment began mass production of Type engines for fleet consumption, and a mysterious division was officially settled in Oxford, England.

Just eight kilometres away from the Williams convoy, in an abandoned factory, a large number of micro-machine tools are being assembled. A sign of a black horse rising from its hooves was spray-painted on the utopian façade of the factory.

Li Fanyu was not idle, and took advantage of the fact that there was still half a month left in the next sub-station of the FE to gather several main drivers of the Zhengxin K2 team, including Alonso, Loulu and Yang Chen, to Oxford, England.

On the one hand, Alonso passed on the experience to the two younger generations of the Wei team, and on the other hand, let several young drivers learn to observe F1 technology.

Time flies in the busyness, and more than ten days of hard work have passed in a blink of an eye.

Seeing that it was about to start the second half of the F1 season, looking at the almost run-in team, in Claire's office, Li Fanyu raised the red wine in his hand.

He smiled at the lady, "It's a mule or a horse, it's finally going to be pulled out and slipped." ”
