Chapter 1582: The main race begins!

Li Fanyu thinks that his current driving skills are no worse than Alonso's.

Alonso's lifelong experience on the track and Xapp's driving expertise have been felt during his previous tests of the new engine at the factory Williams track.

It was an intuition, and in that state, Li Fanyu felt that he was a god. By comparing it to Alonso's performances in previous tournaments, he feels he has surpassed his top brother in some way.

However, the only thing that cannot be compared with Tou Ge is that all of Touge's skills have been accumulated through 20 years of track experience. He himself has a complete system theory of the track. And oneself is more of a consciousness integrated into the bone marrow.

Let's put it this way, compared to Alonso, he is a pure, top-level stream-of-consciousness player.

Alonso, on the other hand, is a technical player with theory and practice.

Therefore, if he goes to fight in the end, Li Fanyu is confident. But when it comes to coaching others, or improving the team, he's not as good as Alonso.

This is also the reason why he spent a lot of money to let Alonso join FE, and put Lou Lu and Chen Chen, two potential drivers and the head brother, together.

Alonso is a more qualified teacher and leader than himself.

After receiving Li Fanyu's promise, Alonso found Xavier after qualifying.

Xavier is just 21 years old, and the British driver was still playing mud in the karting track at a time when Alonso and Schumacher were falling in love with each other in Formula 1.

It can be said that he grew up watching Alonso's games. Alonso's ability to protect tires, the technical characteristics of accumulating strength in the first half and breaking out in the later period, also had a great impact on Xavier's personal driving style.

It's no exaggeration to say that this is a huge Alonso fan.

Now, being able to get the guidance of his idol, Javier is naturally very happy. During the more than six hours of car maintenance, the two had a good conversation, and Alonso gave a detailed analysis and explanation of the current situation at Silverstone, with his own understanding of the track and some of the problems exposed by Xavier in qualifying.

This has benefited Javier a lot.

Meanwhile.

After qualifying, the media also gave a detailed analysis of the performance of the Williams team.

Most of the media retracted their previous negative comments about Zhengxin Engine and changed their tune.

Even Extreme Weekly, which had previously sung a lot about the Zhengxin FEtype engine, had to admit that the new generation of type engine equipped by the Williams team was "the most amazing powertrain in the past three seasons." ”

And Zabul Tonys, the famous F1 commentator Zabul Tonys, who previously bought the Williams team and devalued the behavior of buying the team and selling the engine, also called frantically for the type engine on his Twitter, saying that "a new pattern of F1 is about to emerge, and the Williams team is optimistic about competing with Mercedes-Benz next season." ”

There is no doubt that through the three practice sessions and qualifying sessions at Silverstone, the performance of the two Williams Racing cars has conquered many people in the industry.

But while praising the new engine, Tonys also has no hopes for Williams this season.

In his opinion, the Williams team had just rebuilt last season, sacking two underperforming veterans and going all-in on newcomers. At present, the team has the hard power to challenge for the season championship, and the team's engine problem has been solved, but the lack of technical accumulation at the young age, and the poor tactical execution of the team, are the biggest problems that need to be solved urgently.

In particular, the two drivers' current very different technical styles, and Javier's conservatism, often leads to nothing in the first half of the race, and the second half of the race does not play to the advantages accumulated in the early stage. Amondero, on the other hand, is a stunned young man, although he always has a stroke of genius at the back end of the game, but the disadvantages caused by rough technology in the early stage cannot be made up for many times.

As a veteran who has been in the commentary industry for decades and has been an F1 commentator for half his life, the questions he said in this tweet are still quite pertinent.

At a time when public opinion was crowded, the main race of the F1 British Grand Prix began.

Two days ago, although it was occasionally cloudy at Silverstone, the weather was generally more face-saving. There was no rain in either practice or qualifying.

However, the weather in the UK is so capricious that yesterday the racing team said that "this year's British Grand Prix is going to be a sunny and exciting race." However, on the morning of the race, dark clouds had already formed in the sky.

See, it's going to rain at a pace.

In the pit lane of the Williams team, Claire, who saw this scene, was very worried.

Although the engine has been thoroughly tested, the driver has no experience of driving in the rain. The engine is important to a Formula 1 car, but so is the combination of the engine and the various tyres. In many cases, the combination of racing power and tires will directly affect the outcome of the race.

And if today's race is really going to be played in the rain, it will undoubtedly be a big test for the team

Seeing the worry on Claire's face, Li Fanyu smiled indifferently and comforted: "I believe that Lady Luck will stand with us." ”

Claire didn't even look at him, and replied: "It's better to be like this, or your more than 10 million pounds will be in vain." ”

Choked back directly by this sentence, Li Fan was sweating wildly. He decided to ignore the old woman, who was a little precursor to a precursor.

With the hustle and bustle of the stadium broadcast, under the busy command of the on-site staff, the cars of each team entered the position.

Five minutes later, the track was cleared. As the starting point indicators lit up in turn, a screeching sound of the tires rubbing against the track resounded throughout the field.

The race is on!

After a magical practice match and a wonderful qualifying match, the on-site commentary of the main race was particularly exciting.

"Friends, all the cars are now on the way! Mercedes-AMG Racing's Hamilton took pole position in yesterday's qualifying session and is now leading the track. He was followed by Reisfast's Amber, the young driver who had a standout performance in qualifying yesterday and could see him battle Hamilton's dragon and tiger in the middle of the day. He was followed by Mercedes-Benz's No. 2 driver, Finland's Pride Valtteri. Today is a special day for Valttery, so let's wish him a happy birthday! The fourth pick was Williams' leading driver, Javier. In previous practice sessions and qualifying, we were very impressed with the new engine of the Williams team. Today let's take a look at what this never-defeating team will bring. Huh?"

As soon as the commentator set his eyes on Javier's car, he was surprised.

"Oh my God, am I mistaken? Although there are clouds today, we have not received the news of rain now, but we can see that Javier's car is actually using rain tires! Oh my God, what the hell does he think?!"
