Chapter 202: Perfect
"Look!" In front of the monitor, someone pointed at the monitor and screamed.
"What? What's wrong? Hearing this exclamation, everyone was surprised and asked, what happened?
"Just now, just now," the guy who screamed in front of the monitor just now stammered, "When our car was cornering just now, the brake discs of the front wheels were already red due to the violent friction, but the braking performance still didn't see much change!" ”
As soon as the words came out, the whole house was shocked!
The brake discs have burned red, and the braking performance has not changed much? How is this possible?
Could this be the power of this new material brake disc? You know, if it is an ordinary brake disc, in the case of the brake disc has burned red, the thermal attenuation effect of the car's braking system is very amazing, the friction coefficient can be reduced from 0.4 to 06-0.7 or so, even if the braking system specially developed for racing, in this case, it will increase the braking distance by at least 30% or more!
And now, what did this guy just say? The brake discs of the racing car have burned red, but the braking performance has not changed much? Everyone was glued to the monitor in front of them, the sapphire blue racing car that was speeding by.
It was only a few tens of seconds, but all the team staff in the pit room felt that time was simply slow to see a fucking ghost, and finally reached the No. 3 Ripsol U-shaped corner, no one spoke, everyone held their breath, their eyes were firmly fixed on the sapphire blue race car deleted by the monitor, and there was not even a loud breathing sound in the huge pit room! The atmosphere in the whole maintenance room was so dull and oppressive that people almost wanted to escape!
Sweat appeared on everyone's forehead, and everyone was looking at how Liu Chenglong passed this corner, whether it was really like what the guy said just now, even if the brake disc burned red, the braking performance of the car would not be affected too much.
Sure enough, it was still the same as at the beginning, Liu Chenglong still waited until he was only about 40 meters away from the corner of Ripsol before he began to step on the brakes, due to the previous continuous braking action, the brake discs and calipers rubbed violently. The front and rear brake discs of the car suddenly became as red as red-hot iron sheets, and everyone could see it clearly even in the monitor! However, the performance of the brakes is still as unchanged as when they were first used, or rather. There have been changes, but the range of changes is so small that the naked eye can't tell them!
"Hooray!" At the moment when Liu Chenglong passed the corner and accelerated again, in the maintenance room, after finally confirming that it was not an accidental phenomenon. All the staff were excited to put down their work, cheering and hugging each other, there was no longer the tense and almost suffocating atmosphere in the maintenance room, everyone kept hugging each other, patting, congratulating each other, everyone knew that with the help of this new braking system, they would definitely get a good result in tomorrow's qualifying and the day after tomorrow's race.
"Zhang," just as everyone was still cheering and celebrating. Michelle walked up to Zhang Lan and Xiao Chenxi, and looked at the young brothers with a sincere face, "Thank you!" ”
"Thank you?" Hearing Michelle's words, Zhang Lan's head was a little confused, and she didn't know what Michelle meant by this, "Thank us for what, it seems that we should say thank you, if it weren't for your efforts, Mr. Michelle, the Alice team would not have come to this day." ”
"Thank you, of course," Michelle said sincerely. "I've heard from people in your company that you two insisted on researching this new ceramic brake system when everyone was not optimistic about it at the beginning," said Michelle, shrugging his shoulders humorously. The tone was tinged with the unique humor of the French, "If it weren't for the persistence of the two of you, how could our team have such an excellent braking system that works so well now?" ”
It turns out that this is the case, Zhang Lan and Xiao Chenxi couldn't help but wonder, and suddenly remembered one thing, and they didn't think much about it for a while. Zhang Lan rushed out directly, "Then Mr. Michelle thinks that our new revolutionary brake product is not possible to enter the F1 field?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned: It turns out that this little boss's appetite is so big? SBK hasn't officially started to use it yet, but it's already thinking about entering F1?
Michelle thought about it very seriously, and finally cautiously gave his opinion, "If you think about it purely from a technical point of view, I think there is no problem at all with this kind of brake entering the F1 arena and being adopted by the F1 car, but the problem is that there are too many things involved in the F1 event, and sometimes it is not your product that can be entered if it is excellent, and the relationship is very complicated, and it is not clear in one sentence or two." ”
Zhang Lan nodded, indicating that he understood, the reason for such a question is purely that he remembered that the composite ceramic brake system was used at the beginning of the F1 car, but he did not expect that due to the change in the history of his own appearance, the composite ceramic brake that should have come out in Japan in the winter of 1991 has now appeared in his hands in advance, and the composite ceramic brake system that should have appeared first on the F1 field first appeared on the field of the World Superbike Championship. And it is still its own fleet that uses this product, a fleet that has never existed in history.
In the next time, Zhao Ming, who was stimulated by Liu Chenglong, was not far behind, because of Liu Chenglong's excellent performance, the new brake gave Zhao Ming great confidence, and now he can't wait to start wanting to get familiar with the performance and characteristics of this brake in the shortest possible time, so as to be able to get a better position in tomorrow's qualifying race.
Today's practice match is not over yet, but everything you need to know today is already known, Zhang Lan and Xiao Chenxi said goodbye to the members of the team, and the two went back to the hotel.
When they returned to the hotel, Alice and Yang Zhi had not yet returned from shopping. But what is amazing is that just as Zhang Lan and Xiao Chenxi entered the house on the front foot, Alice and Yang Zhi on the back foot had already followed the two of them into the door behind their buttocks, and the time was so short that even after Zhang Lan entered the house, they had already come in before they even had time to unscrew the bottle of mineral water.
Zhang Lan is depressed to death, you don't just wait for us to open the door, you deliberately squatted in a small place, waiting for us to come back, right?
"How is the convoy doing today?" Alice was concerned about this question and asked first.
"Good! Very good!! Very good!!! Okay mess!!! Zhang Lan used four consecutive analogies to describe today's results, and the meaning of each word was stronger than the other.
"Okay," Zhang Lan said this, Alice was finally relieved, and took out a big bag from behind her very magically, "This is what we bought from shopping today, well, there are also clothes that the eldest sister specially bought for the two of you, try it?" ”
This big amazing bag was taken out from behind Alice? Zhang Lan circled around Alice a few times, and felt a great miracle in her heart: just now this big bag that looked wider than Alice was hidden behind this girl? Why didn't I find out? Could it be that this girl is also the same as Tinker Bell, and also has a magical other-dimensional pocket?
"Then you must try," Zhang Lan, who didn't find a pocket in another dimension, had to die of this heart, watching Yang Zhi excitedly take out a few small bags from the big bag, and by the way, he gave his mother a very cool fart, "You must know that my mother's vision is very accurate, and the things she buys are definitely not bad." ”
There are two more words at the end: weird! It's a pity that Zhang Lan didn't dare to say it.
The second day is the team's qualifying race, Yang Zhi and Alice can't miss it, in fact, it's just today's half-day shopping time, Yang Zhi already feels a little tired, and it is impossible for anyone to maintain enough physical strength in three or four consecutive days of madness - well, except for Alice and Xiao Chenxi - not to mention that tomorrow is the day when his company's team is about to fight, as the boss of the company, he is also obliged to cheer for his team.
On 22 April, the weather was still very clear, with a standard Mediterranean climate in Spain and a hot, dry summer, which was perfect for racing, and the team could have kept tyre considerations to a minimum.
This month, Spain has a Mediterranean climate and there is no rain, so the team doesn't have to worry about wet tyres at all. Although the weather is a test for the riders, it's only been a little over April, and even if you wear a thick fireproof racing suit, you won't feel that hot when you run, not to mention that the motorcycle is still in the open air.
Just as the teams were actively preparing for the race and the teams were gearing up to fight for a good place in today's qualifying session, at the U-turn 2 of the Catalunya circuit, two foreigners wearing sunglasses were whispering to the teams.
"There's no doubt about it," said one of the slightly thinner guys with curly brown hair, "and if nothing else, the winner is the Ducati team again," he said and began to complain, "It's Ducati every time, it's Ducati every year, and God, can't any other team give me a highlight that will surprise me?" ”
"The highlight?" Another chubby guy laughed and said, "Hell, every single one here is bright except for the Ducati team." (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
