655 Alessi's Choice (Chapter 3)

When the other members of the crew heard Alessi's words, they all nodded cooperatively, said goodbye to him, and left the ward, closing the door by the way.

"Alessi, if you have anything to say until you recover from your injury, now that the season is over, there is no need to rush."

Prost persuaded that now Alessi is not in good physical condition or spirit. If there's anything you want to say, at least recuperate for a few days and wait for your body to recover, after all, the season is over, and there's a long winter break ahead, so a few months is enough to say anything.

"No, there are some things that have to be prepared now."

Alessi remained firm in her thoughts.

"Okay, what do you want to say?"

Prost reluctantly agreed, he and Alessi have actually known each other for many years and can be regarded as old friends, so he knows each other's character very well, and they both have a kind of French stubbornness.

"BOOS, I've decided to retire this season and help Fei find a stronger teammate."

"What?"

Zhang Yifei and Prost said this almost in unison, they really didn't expect that in this case, Alessi would say such a thing.

"Alessi, what do you say? You've been in a noticeably better form this season and you'd have finished on the podium had it not been for Barrichello's crash. I don't think there's a stronger teammate, just the right teammate, unless you don't want to partner with me anymore. ”

Zhang Yifei replied first, although this French veteran, from an objective point of view, his strength is indeed not very good, and he is also at the bottom of the driver level in history.

But after a year of partnering, Zhang Yifei has formed a tacit understanding with Alessi, and the other party's state and fighting spirit have been significantly improved, at least now at the level of a midstream driver.

F1 teammates are a very contradictory identity, and many times the biggest enemy may be your teammates. It's not easy to find a teammate who can get along well.

Zhang Yifei would rather choose Alessi, who is weaker but has gotten along well, than to welcome a stronger new teammate. As he said, there is no stronger teammate, only more suitable.

Hearing Zhang Yifei's words, Alessi showed a pleased smile on his face, at least after running for a season, this Chinese kid also recognized himself.

Prost on the other side also opened his mouth to persuade: "Alessi, you have to be depressed because of your injury, I have already learned from the doctor in detail, your injury will not cause any permanent sequelae, and it will affect the performance of future games." ”

"So don't put too much psychological pressure on yourself, take care of your injuries, and wait for the next season, when the time comes, I will give you the most powerful Prost car ever!"

In the face of Zhang Yifei and Prost's words, Alessi looked at the two of them, and a very complicated expression appeared on his face, some were moved, some were reluctant, and some regrets, but in the end, what appeared was a kind of determination!

"BOSS, I'm not saying I'm retiring because of my injury, but if the Prost team wants to become stronger, it must need stronger drivers."

"Fei has already shown his quality as a top driver this year, I can't keep up with this kid, it's time to find a new player with more potential to replace me as a retired driver."

"Alessi ......"

Prost tried to persuade him, but as soon as he spoke, Alessy waved his arm vigorously to stop him from continuing.

"Prost, you're a good boss, but not a good boss, otherwise I would have left Prost last year. The dream of Grand-France may never come true, but I hope that I can see the day when Prost will stand at the top and don't let me down! ”

As an old friend for many years, this time Alessi did not call Prost the boss, but directly called him by his name.

He knows Prost very well, this is an idealist, otherwise he would not have such a childish dream as the Grand France team, and even expected other French companies to dream with him, which is really naïve!

But he believed Prost's nonsense and dreamed of the Grand France team with him. Last year, in fact, it was already the time to wake up from a dream, so Alessi behaved very decadently, purely messing around, and the whole team atmosphere was also very unpleasant.

If Prost had been ruthless enough, a driver like Alessy would have been out of the team long ago. But he didn't choose to do so, leaving the team with a cancer, and instead letting the promising Heidfeld leave the team, which meant that the Prost team would be completely destroyed.

It can only be said that the life of the Prost team should not be extinguished, ushered in Zhang Yifei, the savior, and used absolute strength, coupled with a rough bet, to conquer Alessi at one time, avoiding many troubles afterwards, and also putting the team back on track.

So Alessi understands very well that Prost's friendship and idealism are too heavy, and he is not a qualified utilitarian boss.

With guilt for the team and longing for the original dream, Alessi understood that he couldn't keep up with Zhang Yifei's pace, and finally made this decision during the "quiet" time of the past few days.

If the Prost team wants to stand at the top, they must use more powerful drivers to cooperate with Zhang Yifei, just as Schumacher needs a green leaf of Barrichello's level. Otherwise, he will become a shortcoming of the team, or even a laggard.

The long pain is better than the short pain, since it has come to this point, let yourself maintain the dignity of being a veteran and leave the team with dignity.

In the face of Alessi's words, Prost was also silent, don't forget that he has the title of "Dr. Che", and reason used to be his spokesperson.

It is impossible for Prost not to understand these truths, but it is one thing to understand, and it is another thing to do it ruthlessly.

Looking at the silent Prost, Alessi understood that he had convinced the other party, so he turned his gaze to Zhang Yifei.

"Fei, you are the strongest rookie driver I have ever seen in my career for more than ten years, there is no one! It is even no exaggeration to say that even Senna and Schumacher's rookie seasons are far less dazzling than you are today, and they may be second only to Villeneuve, the champion of India. ”

"And more importantly, you have all the qualities to be a top driver, tenacity, fearlessness, hard work, fighting spirit! So I'm sure you can lead the Prost team to a brighter future and be able to hold down stronger teammates. ”

"Fly, don't you want to be the greatest world champion on the track like Schumacher?"

Alessi's last question, like a sharp blade, directly pierced the surging ambition in the depths of Zhang Yifei's heart!

That's right, Zhang Yifei's purpose in entering the F1 paddock is to become the world champion driver admired by tens of thousands of people. The same is true on the F1 track, only the world champion driver can be called the real champion and the strongest in the world!

A momentary emotional matter will only drag down the development of himself and the team, and it is true that Alessi's strength can no longer keep up with the pace. If you want to fight the Big Three and become a World Champion, you need stronger teammates, even if the opponent is a double-edged sword.

To be honest, if it weren't for Alessi himself to take the initiative to mention it, even if Zhang Yifei realized this problem, he would have chosen to compromise and be emotional, just like Prost in the past.

After all, people can be ruthless, and Zhang Yifei has never been a cold-blooded and ruthless driver who will do anything for the championship. Alessi has helped a lot in his weakest and naïve rookie season, and has willingly done a lot of wingman things.

Now if Zhang Yifei kicks the other party away, he asks himself if he can't do it.

But now that Alaisi has spoken to this point, Zhang Yifei is not an indecisive person. When it's time to make a choice, if you hesitate, you will harm others and yourself, and drag down the whole team!

"That's right, I want to be a World Champion!"

Hearing Zhang Yifei say this firmly, a smile appeared on Alessi's face, and he said loudly: "GOOD!" ”

However, before the words fell, it caused a cough, which made Zhang Yifei and Prost nervous. If this kind of thing causes Alessi's condition to worsen, it will be more than worth the loss.

"I'm fine, what's this little injury as a driver?"

Alessi still supports the dignity of his French veteran, and doesn't want Zhang Yifei and Prost to see themselves too weakly. And it's true that for drivers, death is only the final destination, and injuries are really not worth mentioning.

"Boss, you should know how to do it."

In the face of this rhetorical question, Prost glanced at Alessi, then turned his head to look at Zhang Yifei, and finally nodded.

"Alessi, I assure you that the Prost team will only grow stronger, even to the top!"

"I believe in you, because this is what we've always dreamed of."

"That's right, this is my dream, and this is my original promise to you!"

Prost used this passage to recruit Alessi, a French veteran, into the team, hoping that he would give full play to his experience and bring newcomers or something.

It's just that the final result is not so satisfactory.

"I'm a little tired, boss."

The thoughts in my heart have been spoken, and the other party has agreed, and the heart that has been supporting Alessi was vented at once, followed by deep exhaustion.

"Well, you have a good rest, and we'll come back to see you tomorrow."

Prost nodded, then waved his hand at Zhang Yifei, and the two of them turned around and left the ward together.

But when the two of them walked to the door, Alessi's voice came from behind them again: "The speed must be fast boss, it will take time to run in." ”

That's why Alessi is in such a hurry, a few months of off-season may seem like a long time, but finding drivers, negotiating and transferring a series of procedures is not as simple as imagined, and it can be time-consuming with a bit of twists and turns.

In order for the team to run in as soon as possible, it is necessary to hurry up!
