After the awards, the drivers went back to change their clothes.

After taking a shower, An Feng changed into the casual suit that Joanna prepared for him, a white shirt, a light gray jacket, and slacks, which was very stylish and masculine. The bodyguards took their things and left the convoy aisle, only to run into reporters waiting here, and the bodyguards were customary to step forward to act as shields.

But this time, An Feng did not refuse the interview.

A few reporters were overjoyed, and the camera and microphone immediately went into working condition, and asked questions such as if he was going to invest in the GP team and participate in a bigger event. Did the team's Cooper sign a permanent contract? Will it fight FE and so on.

An Feng's answer is very simple: I don't know.

However, the quality of the reporter was very good, and he immediately changed the question: "Mr. An, the last race in Florida is related to the ranking of the second and third places, do you have confidence?" Or will the team consider having Mr. Cooper, who has already won the championship, implement a solid winning strategy? ”

An Feng said: "I think the game is about giving your best, even if it is your teammates. I'm going to give it my all this time and bring my racing career to a great end. ”

Another reporter asked, "Mr. Ahn, do you have any other plans for the event?" ”

An Feng shook his head: "There is nothing else, this will be my last professional match." ”

The reporters were pleasantly surprised, and they actually dug up a big shock, and the question quickly came: "What made you decide to give up the professional game?" You've done a great job and you've got a very pleasing style of racing, even if you're not number one, but we've found that you're the hottest fan on the spot. ”

An Feng smiled: "I have to thank this group of enthusiastic fans. There are many reasons why I don't play professionally anymore, and age is an issue. family problems, etc. You know racing is not my profession, I spend a lot of time on it to prepare for the event. Everything else was pushed. ”

The reporters knew that An Feng was a rich man, and it was not strange that racing was not a profession, so they asked: "It's a pity, is it because of his wife?" ”

An Feng hugged Joanna's waist beside him and nodded: "She has done a lot for me in the past few weeks, with worries and blessings. Yes, I hope to put her at ease. I want to give her more space. Besides, I'm not as old as the energetic boys. ”

Everyone laughed.

An Feng sighed about the festival: "I'm talking about racing. ”

The reporters laughed even more, and Joanna laughed too, as she was hugged by her husband. is still leaning on him, and the subtleties are all revealing sweetness. The reporters turned the microphone to Joanna: "Mrs. Ann, what do you have to say about your last battle as a gentleman next week?" ”

Joanna said: "I hope he can achieve his goals. In addition, I would like to say. As long as he has a dream. I'll support him in making it happen. ”

"Sir, do you think Madame has given you so much power?" The journalists asked.

An Feng smiled and said, "No, this is a promise." But if there's a good single race in the future, I think I'll probably be back on the track. ”

"Like the Indy 500?" Some journalists joked.

An Feng smiled: "For this question, I want to thank you for the compliment. ”

The Indy 500 that the reporter asked about is a special part of the IndyCar race, which is held at the Indianapolis Speedway, driving a faster, more horsepower, and faster car than F1 to go around the circle. There are Americans, but there are also a lot of F1 drivers. So it's super high.

So An Feng thanked him, it was a wonderful answer.

Seeing that the time was about the same, the bodyguards politely asked for a way to escort the two of them away.

The next day, it was reported in the newspapers and on the Internet that a number of popular Chinese riders would retire after the Florida race, and Daytona would be his last stop. As soon as this news came out, coupled with the video of the interview, it immediately attracted attention, and many fans said that it was a pity.

They do like An Feng's driving style, of course, there are also reasons for the contrast of status, a super-rich man who loves racing cars is engaged in professional racing, and there is amazing talent, which is attractive enough. But hearing that he was going to quit after the game made many people regret and disappoint.

Roger called in the evening: "You can't be hype, right?" ”

"What do I have to hype about?" An Feng said suspiciously.

Roger said: "The Internet has exploded! are all discussing your last battle, and the fans of the two gangs have already made a fuss, and the scale is not small, of course, the other party is even larger, because it debuted relatively early. But you also have 100,000 fans here, and many of them still speak foreign languages. ”

An Feng understood: "What I said is true, but I didn't expect this effect." ”

Roger said: "If you want to change to someone else, I must think it's hype, I just wanted to book a ticket for Daytona Circuit, and the rostrum was full, and your popularity is not low." ”

An Feng said: "The reason for the last stop, right? There are more fans of other riders than I do. ”

"I don't care, leave me a few tickets, I can't support you today, and I'll be there next time I say anything."

"You go to Wang, he has hundreds of votes for the rostrum."

"He's a ticket seller?" Roger was amazed.

An Feng smiled: "No, he plans to pull some family and friends and popularity for me, and also customize more GP team flags." ”

"It's still a die-hard fan!" Roger said, "Well, good luck!" Next time, I will be there on time to support you and give you good results! ”

"I will!" An Feng said.

……

For the final battle of Anfeng's professional event, many people are looking forward to it, and Joanna has also given enough support.

On Tuesday they flew to Florida.

Daytona Beach is a coastal city in northern Florida and has always been the mecca of American motorsports, where the famous 24 Hours of Daytona are held, as well as the IndyCar Race and NASCAR have tracks here, which are similar to those in Indianapolis.

But it's at least halfway through the oval stage, meaning it's a high-speed course, and it's unknown if it's as fast as the previous one, but there was a regional race at Daytona the week before the race. By the time the race track was vacated, it was already Thursday, and everyone had time to get acquainted.

For homegrown American riders. It's not that difficult, Daytona is quite famous, and he has been up and down for many cars, but it is a first time for Cooper or Anfeng, and it is not safe to hope that it will not be safe in Saturday's practice session, so he will have to choose another time to go up and feel it.

After a few laps of the Anfeng track, I felt okay. Then I changed into a swimsuit and went to the beach.

Joanna said that it had nothing to do with her, she had given her greatest support, and she didn't mind even if An Feng was immersed in the track all day. But now it seems. People are lazy for a reason. The weather in Florida was very hot, and An Feng did not have the patience to stay in a fifty or sixty degree race car for hours.

The weather in Florida in mid-June is still very pleasant and comfortable, but you have to wear a racing suit. Get into a race car without air conditioning. All good impressions will turn bad, and An Feng wants to experience the warmth and beauty of Florida before the impression is not bad...... What a good excuse.

By Saturday, the city began to see more tourists.

The final leg of the tournament was very attractive, with more than 80,000 tickets sold, the best ever since the event began. The crowd at the MC Challenge has been high, and it doesn't go along with the top events, except for the cheap tickets. Freshness is also an important factor.

On Saturday, Anfeng took some time to familiarize himself with the track.

On Sunday morning, the game kicked off. The spectators were already crowded with spectators, and the happiest were the vendors, the weather was hot, all kinds of drinks and beers never stopped, and the drivers on the circuit were thirsty after a few laps, but they could only drink mineral water honestly.

In the morning's qualifying race, Anfeng performed steadily and took second.

After the lunch break, prepare in the afternoon. The team's pit room was lively before the race, allowing a small number of journalists and media to take pictures recently, but it had to be far away so as not to disturb the drivers and team members. An Feng sat and blew the air conditioner and chatted with everyone, and Joanna was also there.

The engineer was talking about the weather and road conditions, the weather was beautiful, the temperature was right, the track was in very good condition, and the next step was for the drivers to play freely. Cooper is under no pressure, his title is secured, and now the focus is on An Feng, hoping that he will win the championship.

The data shows that Cooper was overtaken by him twice in the last stop, and finally almost won the championship, confirming the prediction that "every time it will be fiercer".

An Feng crossed Erlang's legs: "It's easy, if I break out, Cooper can only look at the taillights." ”

Cooper said, "I'll do my best to inspire you." ”

An Feng smiled: "You kid! ”

The Pit room was very cool, and An Feng wanted Joanna to stay here, but she refused: "I have to go with your fan group, everyone wants to see you cross the line with their own eyes." ”

"Tell them I love them." An Feng said.

"A must." Joanna helped him pinch his shoulders and waited for the countdown to the match.

……

The well-tuned cars began to be pushed onto the track, the drivers were changing their costumes, and Joanna left with the bodyguards. An Feng also came to the maintenance area, and a reporter wanted to interview him, but the staff blocked it, and An Feng just gave the camera a thumbs up, looking very confident.

Next to the grid number three was Chevrolet's rival, a WTCC driver with a good record.

The on-site camera gave the two opponents a lot of shots, An Feng looked at the coolly dressed MM very leisurely, while the Chevrolet driver over there listened to the engineer's final advice, and had no distractions about the girl, and the mood was all on the car. The rewards for winning second place are abundant.

Five minutes before the start of the race, he got in the car, the camera shot one by one of the racing cars, the racing babies kept showing off their charm, their eyes were discharged, and the kiss was seductive = confused, An Feng stared at the steering wheel without distractions, and when he was bored, he closed his eyes and recited the sequence of the keys on the steering wheel, switching to a single motor, switching back to multiple motors, KERS energy adjustment, KERS acceleration, and water vest drinking button...... After memorizing the keys one by one, I opened my eyes again.

The girls are gone.

The race is about to start, the start lights are on, and all are off - go!

Anfeng started third, the front was a sloping corner, stepping on the electric door and the Chevrolet driver in parallel, but he was also an old rival, and he would not be easy to obey, he firmly occupied the inner line, did not give Anfeng a chance, and before the first corner, it also occupied Anfeng's overtaking route.

The opponent wants to compete with him for the runner-up position this time, naturally the fighting spirit is high, both sides are familiar with each other's roads, this car race can be said to be evenly matched, An Feng can only give full play to his details expertise, from the accumulated details to pull back the situation, gather less into more sooner or later will surpass the opponent.

But don't be careless, because the first three times you competed with him for second place were all narrow wins, the gap was weak, as long as you made a mistake, the opportunity was missed. And An Feng also plans to surpass Cooper and win a sub-championship...... He was fully focused, in the best shape and with patience.

The camera lens and the audience's eyes are also focused on them, the competition between the two, the discussion on the Internet is very intense, there are already bookmakers betting on the victory or defeat of these two drivers, although Anfeng's opponent debuted early, but the odds are higher than Anfeng, proving that the bookmaker trusts Anfeng more.

Whether it's fans or bets, the two of them are destined to be the protagonists.
