Tang Feng's operation immediately startled Mateschitz, who was sitting in front of the monitor, and the next moment, Mateschitz's voice sounded in Tang Feng's headset.

"Hey, Don, what are you doing here? Be steady, don't panic. ”

Tang Feng was also a little embarrassed, he really didn't expect that the control of this power monster would be so difficult, so he said with a smile: "Sao Rui, Dieter, I think it will take me a while to get used to this power monster." Rest assured, such mistakes will not be made again in the future. ”

In fact, the handling of F1 is still very good, but it is very different from the handling of ordinary cars, and ordinary people are not used to driving this kind of car for the first time, which will cause a situation like what happened to Tang Feng just now.

As soon as he slowly drove the car out of the buffer zone, he saw Benjamin's car whizzing past again, and if it was in the race, Tang Feng had already been lapped.

When Tang Feng drove the car to the top again, because of the experience just now, Tang Feng became more and more aware of the performance of this car.

About 700 meters after the No. 2 bend is an acute angle bend with almost the same angle, this is the No. 3 bend, but this bend, Tang Feng is at ease, although the speed is not very fast, but at least in the bending angle and the exit route is not a mistake at all, making full use of the width of the track, making this bend very beautiful.

After Turn 3, there is a high-speed Turn 4, which is a continuous Turn 5 and 6, and the two big bends are connected to form a standard "hairpin bend". Tang Feng's performance in these two corners was also very good, except for the speed was not fast, he did not make any mistakes in other aspects.

After this hairpin corner, it's Highway Turn 7. With the help of this high-speed corner, the car can quickly increase its speed, and then connect Turns 8 and 9, which are almost 90 degrees angled, to get back to the starting point.

Overall, the Red Bull Circuit is a small and high-speed track. With the exception of Turns 2 and 3 and the hairpin, the angles are not large, and there are four straights on the track, which are not short, so the car can easily get up to speed on this track.

When Tang Feng drove the car across the starting line, the time on the timer had already skipped the three-minute mark, which made Tang Feng a little embarrassed.

The Red Bull Circuit is 4,326 metres long, and the all-time record on this track is 1:08.337 set by Schumacher in 2003, with an average speed of 239 km/h. And Tang Feng ran this track for the first time. It took more than three minutes, almost the same time as Schumacher ran three laps that year

This time also made a group of engineers who accompanied Mateschitz a little unbearable, this is definitely a complete rookie's performance, or to put it simply, even if it is a rookie, I'm afraid it is better than Tang Feng's performance. If you look at another car, it takes about 1 minute and 20 seconds to complete a lap. It's not a big deal for an F1 driver, but it's a good result.

"Hey. Don, I don't think you're really suited to the racing project," Mateschitz teased with a chuckle over the radio.

Tang Feng, who had just crossed the starting line, ignored the fact that the speed of the car was increasing rapidly, and said with a smile: "Dieter, you see, it won't take me five laps to catch up with the guy in front!" ”

Tang Feng's words made Mateschitz burst into laughter. Obviously, no one will believe Tang Feng's words.

Driving an F1 car is no ordinary supercar, and without professional training, no rookie in the world can reach the level of a semi-professional racer in five laps. Mateschitz admits that Tang Feng is proud of making money on the one hand, but he does not admit that Tang Feng can be as good as him in terms of making money in racing.

The starting line is usually in front of the rostrum of a track. The starting line is generally on a long straight, which is designed to allow the car to have enough distance to gain more speed at the start, and similarly, to make the car sprint faster when hitting the line, so that the audience can watch it more enjoyable.

In fact, when Tang Feng passed the last 9th turn just now, he had already begun to speed up, and the straight road where the starting line was located was almost a kilometer away, so when Tang Feng rushed through the starting line and continued to speed up, reaching the 1st turn that was almost 90 degrees, the speed of the car had exceeded 300!

This speed surprised the engineers standing in front of the monitor, after all, Tang Feng was a rookie, and he rushed off the track on the first lap, and now he dared to increase the speed to about three hundred, which is really not a simple matter.

However, when Tang Feng passed Turn 1, the engineers all laughed. Because Tang Feng stepped on the brakes in advance when passing this corner, the speed of the car was reduced to less than one hundred and two when he cornered, which suddenly exposed Tang Feng's rookie level. You know, except for the first lap of the start, when passing this Turn 1, because the car can use the acceleration of the last Turn 9, coupled with the one-kilometer-long straight of the starting line, the fastest speed of the car can exceed 333 when it reaches Turn 1, so the position before this Turn 1 is the highest speed that this track can reach.

Professional drivers generally go between 15 and 16 when passing Turn 1, which ensures that the car can pick up speed quickly after cornering. However, although Tang Feng was quite fast when he passed Turn 1, his speed was too slow when he cornered, and if he was in an official race, he would definitely be directly overtaken by more than three cars.

However, given that Tang Feng has only run the second lap, it is already very good to have this kind of performance.

In the next 2nd turn, Tang Feng's performance is much stronger than the 1st turn just now, at least when the speed is about 300, Tang Feng can still maintain a speed of about 80, you know, even Schumacher, when passing this 2nd corner, the speed is only about 100. And although the timing of Tang Feng's braking is still a little early, on the whole, the performance of this corner is much stronger than that of Turn 1.

Then, in the next few corners, Tang Feng's performance was getting better and better, and when Tang Feng drove the car through the starting line, the time actually entered within one minute and fifty seconds!

Then, on the third lap, Tang Feng's time increased to one minute and thirty-five seconds, and the top speed also reached three hundred and two. On the fourth lap, Tang's time increased to one minute and twenty seconds, which was already about the same as Benjamin's speed. At this speed, it is already impossible for Benjamin to chase Tang Feng.

On lap five, when Tang Feng drove the RB9 across the starting line, the timer recorded a time of 1:14.228! (To be continued.) )
