Zhang Yifei didn't know why Barrichello made such a mistake, but this did not prevent him from seizing this opportunity at all, accelerating directly with one foot of throttle, and overtaking Brazilian driver Barrichello at the second entrance of the double vertex corner!

When this scene appeared, the whole audience opened their mouths wide, and their faces were full of shock and incredulity.

Although Barrichello did not dump Zhang Yifei in this game, his performance was not very satisfactory to the home audience. But he also blocked Zhang Yifei for dozens of laps, and did not give the Chinese kid any chance.

As a result, on the 41st lap, in this overtaking position that even the commentator knows, Barrichello was still overtaken by Zhang Yifei.

This scene instantly broke down the psychological defense of the Brazilian audience, from the shock at the beginning, to the anger at the back, and even all kinds of insults began to appear on the track.

"Barrichello, you have lost the face of the Brazilian driver, Gonzalez knows that the Chinese are going to overtake here, and you can't stop it?"

"Is Scuderia Ferrari's strategy group a waste? In the end, if the driver is not, why is he still being overtaken? ”

"You deserve to be the king of the Seinebas? It's the biggest insult to Senna! ”

"Today is the day of shame for Brazilian drivers, you can't even run a newcomer!"

"What about the crushing strength during the practice match, why can't you see the main game, and are you nervous in the home game?"

How much praise there was before, then how much denigration there is now. Probably from beginning to end, the vast majority of Brazilian viewers did not think that Barrichello would lose to the Chinese driver.

You must know that their initial expectation was to be a champion, and they didn't take Zhang Yifei into account at all, this kind of cat and dog level driver is only worthy of Barrichello to use in the practice Sailiwei.

Barrichello has always had only one opponent, and that is his team-mate Schumacher, who defeats him to win the Interlagos circuit!

Not to mention the anger of the audience, even the manager of the Scuderia Ferrari pit, Jean Todd, slammed his fist on the console panel and said in a roaring voice.

"Can anyone give me an explanation, Barrichello has been reminded by the team, why is there such a mistake?"

In the face of the manager's anger, the other team members were silent at this time, and no one wanted to hit the muzzle.

But at this time, a man in a suit wearing glasses stepped forward, and he was Ross Brown, the technical director of the Scuderia Ferrari.

Ross Brown is a talented engineer who has designed many top-class cars in the F1 paddock as an aerodynamicist.

For example, Schumacher's original defending car at Benetton was the work of Ross Brown. Later, with the decline of the Benetton team, Schumacher showed up at Ferrari, and Ross Brown followed suit, continuing to work as a partner of the two.

So Ross Brown, Schumacher and Jean Todd formed the Ferrari Iron Triangle, which later generations also called these three "dream combinations". ”

It was in the hands of these three that Ferrari began its own dynastic era, winning the Drivers' World Championship five years in a row and the Constructors' World Championship six years in a row. It is no exaggeration to say that Ferrari dominated the world of F1 at this time.

So in the face of Jean Todd's anger, only Ross Brown has the identity and status to stand up.

"Any accident on the track is possible, no one is going to be a regular winner, and Barrichello is still in the standings, so there's no need to be upset. And then again, are Chinese riders really weak? ”

In the face of Ross Brown's rhetorical question, Jean Todd suddenly fell silent.

To be honest, Scuderia Ferrari didn't pay much attention to Zhang Yifei before the Malaysian Grand Prix.

This kind of not paying much attention to the Ferrari team, not even Zhang Yifei doesn't know what the results are, the statistics of the Ferrari team will still do it, but for the driver himself, they don't value it.

The reason is simple, Scuderia Ferrari doesn't look at it.

Just like when Sir Williams discussed Zhang Yifei and Montoya before, he said that if he chose again, he would still choose Montoya without hesitation.

Because of the status and strength of the Williams team, there is no need to bet on the unknown.

This sentence is still applicable to the Ferrari team, and it can even be more exaggerated, even if it is known strength and potential, they still can't look at it, unless they get results and show strong strength, they will pay attention to it.

After all, in the Ferrari team, there is already Schumacher, the strongest driver in the current F1 paddock, and even Barrichello, who can be regarded as the second strongest driver in front of him.

It can be said that the strongest drivers are already in the camp, and they still need to pay attention to something, let alone think about any new drivers.

But I have to say that Zhang Yifei's performance was really unexpected by everyone, and even the Ferrari team, which doesn't pay much attention to newcomer drivers, began to raise Zhang Yifei's attention level, so there was Ross Brown's question.

"As a newcomer, he is not weak, but Barrichello is not even as good as a newcomer?"

Jean Todd is still unwilling to accept the reality of Barrichello's loss to Zhang Yifei, which is indeed a hard thing to believe, otherwise the whole stadium will not be angry on the track.

"It's not that it's not as good, it's the home track that puts too much pressure on Barrichello, and it's normal for there to be some instability in the performance. And then again, Barrichello's performance was not bad, and the kind of mistake just now was more caused by the bumps in the track. ”

"If you have to find a reason, it's that the flight plays better and more consistently."

When Ross Brown said this, there was a hint of appreciation in his tone, when he partnered with Schumacher, it was still Senna's era, and Schumacher was just a fledgling newcomer.

But no one could have imagined that Schumacher would show the strength to challenge Senna in just one year, and even defended the world championship for two consecutive times.

Therefore, the newcomer is not the spokesperson of the weak, and the F1 event is also a very performance-oriented sports competition, and a defeat does not mean anything.

Listening to Rose Brown's persuasion, Jean Todd suppressed his inner dissatisfaction. This is also the current status quo of the Ferrari team, the management is extremely strong, and the status of the No. 2 team like Barrichello is really not very high.

"Now it's up to Schumacher to play."

Jean Todd turned his attention to the display again, and with Barrichello overtaken by Zhang Yifei, Schumacher was left in the top three positions of the Scuderia Ferrari.

Compared to the previous two races, Schumacher led the way, followed by Barrichello. Today at Interlagos, Scuderia Ferrari's results were undoubtedly much more dismal.

Two of the world's top drivers were beaten by two newcomers to the Formula 1 paddock this year, something that would have been unthinkable before.

But for Ferrari, with Schumacher on the pitch, there is hope. No matter how far behind the German driver, as long as he doesn't see the black and white checkered flag waved at the end of the race, there is still a chance to catch up.

This is Schumacher's ability, and it is also the charm of Schumacher at the pinnacle!

The Scuderia Ferrari pit was calm again, the hustle and bustle on the track did not stop, and Zhang Yifei's overtaking victory was simply a few stomps on the pride of Brazilian fans, and they could not calm down in a short time.

Faced with the hustle and bustle of the track, commentator Gonzalez had to relieve: "Barrichello was overtaken, it was really unexpected, but I believe that this is only a temporary lag, he will prove himself in the next races, and the Brazilian driver will defend the glory of Interlagos!" ”

In any case, at this critical moment, Barrichello cannot be blamed too much for being overtaken.

With nearly 30 laps left in the race, the decision was far from complete. Barrichello was overtaken by Zhang Yifei, but he was still ranked fourth, which is a very good result.

And the remaining race is long enough for Barrichello to have every chance to catch up and overtake, and the abuse and dissatisfaction at this time, even if Barrichello can't hear it, he can feel it from the actions of the audience.

The home track, you must give enough support to the home drivers, otherwise what is the home stadium?

It may have been Gonzalez's appeal, and the dissatisfaction and abuse on the track instantly subsided a lot, and gradually turned into cheering and encouragement, which is still Brazil's home stadium after all.

Zhang Yifei on the track, after surpassing Barrichello, was also very excited in his heart. This is the first time he has surpassed an active top F1 driver since entering the F1 paddock.

It's just that Zhang Yifei doesn't understand a little, why Caser can observe Barrichello's flaw, because this is too obvious a mistake, Barrichello can't make it in circles, right?

So he didn't resist his curiosity and asked Korsell through the team's voice. On the other hand, Korsell was quick to give him an answer.

"When you passed Heidelfeld before, Barrichello was in a double apex compound corner. In order to get away from you, he took another extreme route, and it happened that there was a bumpy section of the route, and it was difficult to control the braking force under the instant shaking. ”

"If you apply a light brake, you will go off the track, and the most you can do if you press heavy is to lock up the tyre. So Barrichello will step on it hard to make sure that the car can go through the corners smoothly. It's just that you didn't put enough pressure on him, and he didn't choose to take the extreme route to take the corner. ”

When he heard this, Zhang Yifei understood that when he caught up and was about to overtake this time, Barrichello felt the pressure again, so he took the extreme corner route again.

He still habitually pressed the brakes heavily, and this time he entered the corner faster, resulting in a little heavier than the regular brakes, so the tires were locked, giving himself a chance to overtake.

I really didn't expect that this kind of mistake dozens of laps ago, Cowel could notice and remember, Zhang Yifei really admired it in his heart.

"Cosell, sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy."

Zhang Yifei couldn't help but pat a fart in the team's voice, Koser's instructions today are really important and accurate.

"Don't talk nonsense, focus on Schumacher in front, he's your biggest opponent."

Korcel's words instantly woke up Zhang Yifei, and after overtaking Barrichello, the driver in front of him was Schumacher, who was also from Ferrari.

Others don't know, but Zhang Yifei knows very well in his heart, this is a driver who was named a god in later generations.

Is it finally your turn to challenge the car god?
