Looking at Zhang Yifei's solemn thanks, a smile appeared on Cosell's resolute face.

"Remember, boy, the champion is your promise to me."

"I'm sure I'll win Hockenheim, and Jesus won't keep it, I'm saying!"

Zhang Yifei has already reached the point of ruin, there is no way back, the championship must be won!

"Good, I appreciate that attitude."

Korsel had a rare smile of satisfaction on his face, and it was this confidence combined with the desire to win the championship that made a great driver.

This is true of Senna, and so is Schumacher.

After agreeing to go to the hotel tomorrow, Korsell left the Hockenheimring Circuit first, and Zhang Yifei and his team members began to carry out post-race maintenance.

But at this time, Yamamoto Ukyo came to Zhang Yifei's side and said to him: "Yifei, the tutor told me some communication problems with Ah Hu before, I just thought about it, and the all-English conversation should be in advance. ”

"What did Cosell say?"

"A top team will only want the best maintenance technicians."

Yamamoto Ukyo said what Northel meant, and then went on to add.

"The Renault Euro 2000 is just over three months away, and you don't have to wait for the race to be completed, as long as there are potential drivers, then there will definitely be teams to approach."

"The legend of Kimi going straight into F1 is hard to replicate, but getting into the F3000 team is promising. Moreover, many strong F3000 teams are the second team of F1 teams, which can be regarded as cultivating potential drivers. ”

"Ah Hu and Chen Zhi, if they can't even reach the most basic communication, it is impossible to enter the F3000 level professional formula team, and your influence can't bring them in, you should understand this."

Yamamoto Youjing's words made Zhang Yifei silent, he brought Ah Hu and Brother Zhi to Europe, in a general sense, just to lay a little foundation for Chinese racing in the future and cultivate a maintenance team that belongs to China.

From the perspective of selfishness, there are their own people in the team, and it is smoother to communicate with each other. And when I'm alone overseas, I always feel like I need a right-hand man by my side, even if it's just a fight.

But the reality, with their foundation, is too difficult to bring into the professional team. Language, academic qualifications, etc. are all obstacles, and there is nothing wrong with junior Formula 1, even F3 teams can accept it.

But when they enter the high-level of F3000, they are basically F1 reserve teams, and they have their own professionals, so they don't look down on wild road technicians like Ah Hu and Chen Zhi.

And with his current strength and identity, it is difficult for the team to relax the requirements, after all, there is no capital for negotiation.

"I understand, I'll talk about it in detail later."

Since there is not enough capital, it can only change the defects little by little, whether it is forced or squeezed, anyway, it is necessary to make Ah Hu and Chen Zhi more efficient.

After the overhaul of the car was completed, when Zhang Yifei and his party returned to the hotel, it was already night.

After taking a shower and having dinner, Zhang Yifei did not go to the gym as usual, but gathered all the team members and talked about English problems.

"Today's main thing is to say that in the future, the team will try to use English to create an all-English atmosphere, so that Ah Hu and Brother Zhi can improve the efficiency of English learning faster."

Hearing Zhang Yifei say this, Ah Hu immediately turned into a sad face and replied: "Brother Fei, I'm a little overwhelmed now, how can I speak in the future if I speak in English." ”

"I know you've done your best during this time, but it's still too slow, Ziling still has two months to report to a British university. Renault is only three months away, and there is time to negotiate contracts with higher-level teams. ”

Zhang Yifei expressed his current worries, it is not that Ah Hu and they don't work hard, it is indeed on Zhang Yifei and himself, and he does not dare to say that he can initially master a foreign language in four or five months.

But time waits for no one, and many times there is no choice.

"I agree with the all-English dialogue, Ah Hu and Brother Zhi, even if they are just stumbling, half guessing. As long as they can stick to the first half a month to a month, their English ability will improve by leaps and bounds. ”

He Ziling was the first to express her attitude, she has always been a supporter of all-English dialogue. Because she understands that only by being in the environment can she really learn a foreign language.

"That's right, I also agree with Ziling's words, Ah Hu and Chen Zhi can't just learn words, they need to communicate."

Junko Takeda agreed, in addition to English, she also studied Chinese, it can be said that she is the foreign language master in the team, with incomparable experience.

He Ziling and Junko Takeda both said so, and Yamamoto Ukyo himself was not a person who had any opinions, so naturally this matter was decided.

Seeing the embarrassed faces of Brother Zhi and Ah Hu, Zhang Yifei came to them and said in a solemn tone.

"Brother Zhi, Ah Hu, I know this is difficult for you, but several of us came out of the small car repair shop in Guangshen, and if we want to gain a foothold in Europe, and even enter the world's highest racing hall, the only thing we can do is to fight."

"It's not just you, I'm also fighting, we don't have a choice."

This is Zhang Yifei's heart, it can be said that he is on the road of the equation, every step is difficult.

There is no super tyrant father, and there is no racing culture behind it, even if he has experience in his previous life, it is no longer very useful at this level.

The only thing left is to fight, and indeed for them, there is no choice.

Ah Hu and Brother Zhi also know that Zhang Yifei is doing this for his own good, and to be honest, even Zhang Yifei himself is constantly working hard to improve, wanting to gain a firm foothold in the European formula race.

Even he can fight like this, why can't he learn English by himself, the world will always favor those who work hard and are prepared.

"Brother Fei, I'll do my best."

"Yifei, don't worry, Brother Zhi won't hold you back."

Zhang Yifei smiled with satisfaction, and then patted the arms of the two people, everything was silent.

At about nine o'clock the next morning, Korsell drove a pickup truck over, and there were a few large wooden boxes in the tail box, and then beckoned Zhang Yifei and said, "Move these boxes to the hotel room and assemble them, and they will be used in training in the future." ”

"Kossel, what's in there?"

Zhang Yifei looked at a few large wooden boxes and was very surprised, didn't Korsell talk about racing training, is it necessary to make such a big formation?

"Inside is a set of simulated exercise equipment, which was used by the professional drivers of McLaren Racing at the beginning, and has been useless in my manor for some years, just right for you to exercise at this stage."

Simulated workout equipment? Zhang Yifei is still in a dazed state, he is not very familiar with the F1 training method, but in the Toyota youth training base, he has been exposed to the basic training of primary formula, which is far from reaching the level of F1.

Coupled with some videos and news in later generations, the most I know is that F1 drivers, in addition to physical exercise, generally use racing simulators to train.

This kind of racing simulator is similar to playing a racing game console in the game hall, but it is more high-tech and realistic, using a multi-screen cockpit virtual environment, the steering wheel gear ratio force, the linear force of various pedals, and the multi-axis motor under the cockpit to simulate acceleration, etc., all of which try to simulate the feeling of driving a real F1.

Basically, this kind of racing simulator is similar to the flight simulator used to train pilots, and the price is also extremely expensive, up to tens of millions of dollars each.

However, this is '99, and F1 drivers have not been banned from private testing on the track, so there is no need to use any racing simulators. Even if there is, limited by the level of the electronic industry in this era, it can't make the kind of realistic high-tech equipment in later generations, and Kossell probably won't bring this kind of thing.

As a few people moved the wooden box to the room, the doubts in Zhang Yifei's heart were also solved, it was indeed a simulator similar to the cockpit of a racing car, except that it was not used to exercise driving skills, but to exercise the body.

The cockpit has a steering wheel that can also be rotated freely, but its turning path is weighted by barbell plates. In other words, every turn, just like grabbing a barbell, can exercise the arm muscles.

In this era, riders need "unicorn arms", otherwise they can't even turn the steering wheel at the most basic level, and it is obvious that this equipment is used to exercise arm strength.

But is it necessary to build a racing cockpit like this just to exercise arm strength? The same effect can be achieved with dumbbells, bench presses, etc., and there is no need to do this kind of blind tossing.

But soon Korsell answered Zhang Yifei's doubts, and inside one of the wooden boxes, there was a special racing helmet with various anchor hooks, which were then pulled and linked to the steering wheel by several steel wires.

That is, after wearing a helmet, if you turn the steering wheel, there will be a force to pull the head to deflect, simulating the huge G-value brought by the turn of the track, in this way, there is a real sense of direction of the G-value of the track, which can make the body adapt faster.

"You are still a minor, your physical development is not completely finalized, and the speed of the primary formula is not fast, so you will use 20KG of counterweights for the time being. Wait until you gradually get used to it, and then use 30KG of weights to exercise your neck muscles. ”

30KG？ Hearing this number, Zhang Yifei couldn't help but stick out his tongue, you must know that Zhang Yifei used a pull rope to exercise before, that is, 10KG strength, and this time it will be tripled.

It is equivalent to carrying the weight of a child with every neck muscle movement. And it's not the way to bow your head and lift it hard, it's more about the side confrontation to improve the lateral centrifugal force bearing, which is even more terrifying than the "unicorn arm" training.

"If you don't want to break your neck on the track in the future, it's best to use it every day. Put things here first, now find a quiet place, let me explain to you the system's racing knowledge, your foundation is too poor. ”

Korsell didn't talk nonsense, he had already brought things over, and it was a question of Zhang Yifei whether he used them or not.

What he's doing now is far beyond what he does as a race engineer, but Korsell will never be a babysitter again.
