565 Fighting (Chapter 1)
This is the United States, which is also a country with a legal system, beating each other up like Ah Hu. Let's not talk about whether it has an effect, at least the consequences are very serious.
After all, this is not the previous counterattack of street blackmail, I have a legal advantage, the other party does not dare to sue, and I can easily hire a lawyer on my side to handle it.
And even if you can shut up the three Indy champions, can you still silence the hundreds of thousands of spectators at the same time? Retort Dan can only fight ten at a time, even if he can't bear one hit ten thousand, it is estimated that he can transform into a Super Saiyan.
In competitive sports, only the strong are believed, especially high-competition and high-confrontation events such as boxing and racing. Many kings have many black spots, such as Tyson has been imprisoned three times, Mayweather pretends to be forced and shows off his wealth, Schumacher has no cars, and Senna is simply a scumbag who abandons his wife and children!
But they can still stand on the top and be admired by the world, even skin color and race are not a problem, the black Hamilton, the Filipino Pacquiao, all used perverted results to the extreme, and swept away all the doubters.
The more he faces this kind of pressure and provocation, the more Zhang Yifei must stay calm, instead of letting anger overwhelm his mind, only stronger than them can shut up these people!
"It's the right thing to do."
Korcel exaggerated Zhang Yifei, and controlling his emotional fluctuations is the most important part of becoming a top driver.
In the history of Formula Motor, there have been countless drivers with amazing skills, who often run super-first-class lap times in non-races, but there are very few races and championship titles.
It's because they can't be absolutely rational and calm, which leads to poor ability to resist pressure, and the performance of the event fluctuates greatly. The more pressure there is in the race, the worse their form and level will become.
Take the owner Prost as an example, he is actually definitely inferior to Senna, and he has not set many fastest laps and track records, but he has pressed Senna on the championship title.
In addition to Senna's death and the length of his career, he is calmer than Senna and his calculations on the track are more accurate. "Doctor of the Cars" is known as a computing machine and never makes any obvious mistakes on the track.
Even if he didn't have the absolute fastest lap, it was Prost who played to his extreme average speed to make him one of the drivers with the most titles of all time.
Zhang Yifei's current style is very similar to Senna, which is more than radical and not calm enough. Many times there are crazy lines on the track, and Zhang Yifei is also the mentality of who let who is the grandson, so track accidents are very frequent.
Relying on this aggressive driving style, Zhang Yifei fought to the front row as a newcomer and gained a lot of fans. But in terms of total points, it is actually not high, if it wasn't for the full preparation of the last station and won the championship of the sub-station, then Zhang Yifei only accumulated five points after four stops, and there were no two points in an average game.
This kind of score is not to mention the impact of the world championship, and even the midstream driver's points are much better than Zhang Yifei's.
The rookie stage can be hot-blooded and frivolous, but Zhang Yifei cannot always be a newcomer. He's going to be a mature driver who needs a cooler head and more technical skills in order to be able to crush his opponents perfectly and become the next track king.
"Haven't you always liked radical style, Kossel?"
"Radical is not the same as blind impulsiveness, and it is not the same as stupidity! And there is a word in "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn" called "The Extremes of Things Must Be Reversed". β
"Wow, you even know that?"
"Do you think I bought my college professorship?"
Korcel replied angrily, and then turned back to the pits, this kid couldn't bear to question his knowledge!
That night, the speeches of these Indian champions were broadcast and reprinted by various American television stations, which was like a depth charge, which instantly swept the United States and even the entire Americas.
You must know that Zhang Yifei's previous interview with Time Magazine, no matter how influential it is, is more limited to the scope of the car world, and most Americans don't know much about the Chinese F1 driver.
But IndyCar is different, this is the home race of the United States, and it has relied on the power of one country to push IndyCar to one of the three major automobile events tied with Formula 1 and Le Mans.
From this point, it is enough to see that Americans love and pursue Indy events. Even the number of spectators surpassed that of the hottest event in the United States, the Super Bowl.
The scramble of traditional media has made the most ordinary Americans join the battle between Indian racing and Formula 1. They really hope that these Indy champions can prove their strength to the world and prove that the Indy drivers are the strongest formula drivers!
The current situation may not have been imagined by anyone at the beginning, the fuse of a Chinese newcomer will trigger a confrontation between the world's two major formula races.
"It's interesting, it's a mess."
In the hotel room, Sir Williams is mobilizing the remote control in his hand and watching the news about the United States Grand Prix on mainstream American television.
However, Sir Williams said this with a smile on his face, because no matter what the outcome of this hot scene, the Williams team can be regarded as a winner, after all, his own driver Montoya is the Indy champion.
What's more, Montoya was very competitive this time, and he held the top spot in both practice sessions at Indianapolis Speedway.
This kind of good performance reversed the reputation of the previous Montoya losers, and even the popularity became the representative of the current IndyCar under the hype of public opinion, and it is also a symbol of the victory over Formula 1, which has been recognized by the mainstream group in the United States.
Considering that the U.S. is now the world's largest market, the benefits of having a driver who is accepted into the mainstream U.S. population are obvious. There will be a steady stream of ad sponsorship contracts for next season!
The biggest problem with Williams Racing compared to the other two giants is that there is no strong car manufacturer behind it. This has always made Sir Williams have always had a sense of crisis, which led to the team's philosophy of putting results first.
If you can take advantage of this opportunity, you can open up your popularity in the United States and get enough money. Sir Williams plans to build his own supercar brand just like McLaren in the early days, and use F1 influence to feed back to the car factory, and finally achieve a win-win situation and become a solid F1 team!
"Yes, the American audience has already started a battle between Formula 1 and Indian cars, and they want IndyCar to take control of the world of Formula Formula instead of cowering in the Americas."
"It's just that I'm a little curious, the Chinese kid who has always been more arrogant, in the face of the humiliation of several Indy champions, doesn't he plan to do something?"
Simmonds is also in Sir Williams' room at the moment, following him on the current situation at the US Grand Prix.
Although Zhang Yifei can only be regarded as the fuse, the battle of core interests has nothing to do with him. But after all, the other party is using him as the main driver, the Chinese kid is in the F1 paddock, but he is known for being aggressive and tough, this time there is no sound at all, which is a bit inconsistent with his character.
"What can he do, to challenge the Indy Champion?"
Sir Williams shook his head and continued: "Fei is just a newcomer with a good performance, facing the Indo-local program champion driver, except for Schumacher who dares to say that he will win, I am afraid that even Barrichello and Coulthard crossover may not have the confidence to win." β
"Even if Villeneuve, who has won the Indy championship, is asked to run with Montoya, it is estimated that only Montoya can win, and Villeneuve's current form is a little worse. He chose to keep a low profile as the best way to respond, otherwise he would face even greater humiliation. β
Listening to Sir Williams's explanation, Simmonds thought about it, and this is indeed the truth.
In the face of absolute power, any skill is futile, Zhang Yifei does not have the strength to defeat these Indian champions, and everything in response is a joke. can only blame him for his bad luck and becoming a victim of the war of discourse, who is called such a Chinese driver in the formula field, who is weak and easy to bully.
While Simonzi was discussing happily with Sir Williams, in the hotel where the Prost team was staying, Zhang Yifei was frantically running the Indianapolis circuit with a simulator.
When Zhang Yifei faced the provocation in the afternoon, he behaved very calmly, and even stopped Ah Hu's impulsive thoughts.
But to be honest, it is impossible to say that there is no emotional fluctuation in his heart, and it can only be said that now Zhang Yifei can suppress his anger and not show it in front of outsiders.
Any driver is proud, and Zhang Yifei naturally has his own dignity and pride. As the saying goes, it can be killed and not humiliated, and the Chinese F1 champion is also a champion.
it, when I was a rookie, I dared to run an unfamiliar track, and today I won the F1 championship, and I don't believe that I can't win an Indianapolis circuit in the United States!
On the simulator, the speed of the car is extremely crazy, and it even crashes directly into the concrete wall many times, exploding into a ball of flames.
But Zhang Yifei didn't have any mood fluctuations on his face, and directly reset to start the next game, and it was still the same extreme.
Junko Takeda and Ukyo Yamamoto stood behind, looking at Zhang Yifei's simulated opening method, with a worried expression on their faces.
"Youjing, I feel that Yifei-kun is not as calm as he became, and it can be seen from the speed of the simulator that he is much more extreme than before."
Hearing this, Yamamoto Ukyo glanced at the lap time in the record book in his hand, nodded and replied, "Well, the speed is also much faster than before." β
"Am I talking about speed? It's the safety of Yifeijun! β
Junko Takeda faced Yamamoto Ukyo's stupid appearance, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch him the waist.
"Ah~~! Pain~~! β
Yamamoto Ukyo really didn't expect Junko Takeda, who has always been a "lady", to make such an action, and couldn't help but shout.
But halfway through the shout, he covered his mouth, not wanting to disturb Zhang Yifei, who was practicing in the simulator.
