The huge black display on the track near the pit stop, as Helio and Zhang Yifei crossed the finish line in turn, two lines of red text appeared.

Renault - Helio - 1:21.047!

When they saw the first line of Helio lap times, many people on the scene gasped, the fastest lap of the rookie in the winter test actually surpassed Schumacher of Ferrari, which is a spectacle that has not appeared for many years?

Even when Villeneuve, who was known as the strongest newcomer at the time, entered F1, the rookie winter lap time was behind several bigwigs in the paddock at that time, such as Damon Hill, Schumacher, Mika Hakkinen and others.

If you have to say who has achieved a similar effect among the rookies of the past, it is the Brazilian car god Elton Senna, who once surpassed the top driver at the time, Mansell, but in his rookie season, Senna was far inferior to Villeneuve.

Of course, this also has something to do with Senna going to the worst Tolman team, if he can enter the giants like McLaren and Williams in the rookie season, and drive the top cars, maybe history will be rewritten.

If Helio's results were enough to make the on-site crew members dumbfounded, then when Zhang Yifei's lap time was revealed, the audience was in an uproar!

Prost-Fly - 1:21.024!

The fastest lap at the Catalan circuit is 1:21.032 run by Mika Hakkinen, and Zhang Yifei's current lap time means that he not only broke the track record, but also surpassed the fastest lap on the track.

You must know that the new car, even if it is theoretically getting stronger year by year, but in fact, because of the temperature during the winter test, the driver's performance and the extreme speed of the car are not as fast as the normal temperature in summer.

That's why, every year the opening race of the new F1 season is held in the southern hemisphere or near the equator, rather than the most convenient European car. The reason for this is the temperature, which affects the lap time of the F1 car, and the low temperature also reduces the driver's response.

At this point in time, it is difficult to surpass the fastest lap of the track, but Zhang Yifei did it, and by the way, Prost Racing became the fastest car in today's winter test!

A team that was at the bottom with zero points the year before last and went to the middle and lower reaches of the Chinese New Year's Eve actually surpassed the big three on the track in the new season and became the fastest car in the winter test.

"No way, he can't be faster than me!"

When he saw Zhang Yifei surpassing him at the fastest lap, his first reaction was to push away his helmet mask and stare at the display screen on the track with disbelief!

He couldn't believe that all this was true in front of him, how could the Chinese kid do it faster than himself?

On the last lap, Helio thought he had run his limit and had barely missed a line move. According to Zhang Yifei's previous lap speed, even if his strength is reserved, it is impossible to surpass himself!

Now the lap time on the display screen has shattered Helio's confidence, Zhang Yifei not only surpassed himself, but also surpassed the fastest lap of the track, becoming the fastest driver of the Catalan circuit worthy of the name!

Unbelievable track lap times, in addition to Helio, there was also Schumacher from the Ferrari pits.

Schumacher ran a time of 1:21.055 before, which can be said to be far ahead of the second-place Helio, and the 0.25 gap is a notch.

When the Indy kid went to challenge the driver, Schumacher was still in a lively mentality, and he did not doubt that the two last laps would be able to run faster.

But it is still very difficult to surpass yourself in the fastest lap, let alone surpass both like now!

"Impossible! Both of these have so much hidden strength? ”

Schumacher, who has always been more proud, couldn't help but doubt it in the pit.

You must know that with the death of Senna and the retirement of Prost, Schumacher has become the undisputed first person in the F1 paddock. Even if Damon Hill, Villeneuve and others have won the world championship title, they can't compete with Schumacher in terms of qualifications and status.

Looking around the F1 paddock, Schumacher couldn't find even an enemy on his side, and he hadn't had an emotional gaffe for a long time.

"I can't believe it, too, but that's what it is."

Jean Todd stood next to him and sighed, he had never seen this scene in his decades of professional experience. However, the lap times have been displayed on the big screen, and these two rookie drivers are really shocking!

"Shumi, if you were asked to run the last lap, would it be faster?"

Technical director Ross Brown asked with a solemn face, this F2002 car was born in his hands, and it was tailor-made for Schumacher.

Ross Brown is full of confidence in the new car he has designed, believing that it is the unrivaled "Mars rover" in this year's new season.

As a result, he was now overtaken by Renault and Prost in succession, and fell to the current position of the third fastest car, which was a big blow to Brown, and he could not accept this result even more than Schumacher!

"Of course you can, 1:21.055 is not my limit."

Schumacher replied categorically, this is not a cruel word, but he can do it.

It can't be said that Schumacher didn't do his best on the winter test track, only that he didn't fight for his limits. At that time, it was 0.25 seconds ahead of the second place, which was already a relatively safe gap, and it was difficult for the cars behind to overtake.

In fact, as Schumacher had hoped, the lap times remained unchanged until the end of the winter test, and Ferrari would be the fastest car of the year.

But many times, accidents happen like this, and the last lap between Helio and Zhang Yifei directly subverted the situation on the track!

If Schumacher had been allowed to witness the current scene in advance, the 1:21.055 would not have been his fastest lap, but would have been far ahead of this record!

Hearing Schumacher say that he could, Ross Brown breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, at least the proud work he designed was not so simple to be defeated!

Zhang Yifei on the track, because he started 5 seconds later than Helio, so he returned to the pits a little later.

Looking at the lap time on the display, Zhang Yifei had a feeling of being reasonable and unexpected.

It is reasonable to defeat Helio, he never thought that he would lose, no matter how much preparation this Indian kid has put in, how much effort he has put in, he is no less than him!

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yifei didn't expect that he was only so far ahead, and according to the strength of the duel on the Indy track, Helio should be far behind him.

It can only be said that in the past six months, Helio has made amazing progress, no wonder he can't bear to challenge himself so quickly!

However, with this duel in the last lap, it is absolutely impossible for Zhang Yifei to make the mistake of underestimating the enemy. This is the closest Helio is to success, but it can only be his last chance to get close to success, Zhang Yifei will try his best to kill him in the next race!

Another point is that Zhang Yifei didn't expect that he really surpassed the fastest lap.

Although surpassing the fastest lap is Zhang Yifei's winter test goal, it is one thing to set a goal, and it is another thing to achieve it, and it is not a simple matter.

Now with the lap time of 1:21.024, it means that Zhang Yifei has successfully achieved his goal. And brought the Prost race car to the throne of the fastest racing car in winter.

Don't think that this fastest racing title is just a false name, when the final results of the winter test are reported by the media, it is not surprising that Prost Racing Team will negotiate with a large number of advertising sponsors!

Because the fastest car means championship competitiveness and exposure for the new season. Just as a TV hit will attract a lot of advertisers, so will the popular team.

The title of fastest car could bring tens of millions of dollars to the Prost team.

Zhang Yifei drove the car into the pit lane, and the faces of the Prost crew members were filled with joyful expressions. They are not only happy for Zhang Yifei's victory, but also proud of Prost's racing performance and standing at the peak of the winter test!

Once upon a time, Prost cars were synonymous with "garbage", the Peugeot engine became a joke, and many spectators on the track were watching Prost Racing Team because the two drivers persevered until the first few laps and began to retire.

Today's Zhang Yifei's performance can finally make them raise their eyebrows, isn't it the Mars rover? We have it too!

The service technicians were ready to pick up the car, and their minds were still on their minds about how to celebrate the victory.

However, Zhang Yifei drove the AP05 car, and when he approached the Pit Stop of the Prost team, he did not enter the pit stop and stopped, but roared forward.

In the face of this unexpected situation, the crew members were a little dumbfounded, didn't they finish the last lap? And now the time has come to 16:19 in the afternoon, and all kinds of equipment and instruments on the track will be turned off soon.

However, Zhang Yifei's next action instantly answered the question in their hearts, the Prost AP05 car did not continue to run, but chose to pit stop, but it was not the Prost pit stop, but the Renault pit in front!

Zhang Yifei rushed directly to the Renault pit stop, just like the previous operation of Helio, and after the front of the car was inserted into the gap in the crowd, he stepped on the brake with one foot and slammed the accelerator with the other kick!

The torque of the F1 engine broke through the braking force limit, and the rear wheels began to spin and burn the tires. Zhang Yifei drove an F1 car, completed a beautiful in-situ tail flick, forced himself in a narrow space, completed the side parking, and just blocked the front of the Helio car!

Didn't you like to kick the gas pedal and drive into the Prost pit pits? Then now I will let you learn what it means to treat others in their own way!
