I saw that at this time, Barrichello kicked the floor oil, the top aerodynamic layout of the Ferrari car, coupled with the absolute speed of the top few cars in the winter test period, almost with crushing acceleration, directly caught up with Zhang Yifei again, ready to overtake from the left.

In the first few laps, Barrichello made some offensive maneuvers on the long straight. Zhang Yifei also understands that the performance of the opponent's car is stronger than his own Prost car, and it is the safest and easiest way to rely on performance to crush on the straight.

Therefore, he has always maintained an all-out defensive posture on the Interlagos circuit, blocking the car by constantly changing lanes, "drawing dragons" on the track, trying to overpower Barrichello and not give him a chance to overtake.

But this time the opponent was menacing, the speed was faster than before, and it was obvious that Barrichello did not have the patience to continue fighting, and the acceleration control was extremely fierce, intending to surpass Zhang Yifei in one fell swoop.

Looking at the front nose wing in the rearview mirror, it has reached his left rear wheel, and because of the counterclockwise line of the track, Barrichello overtook from the left, which is equivalent to grabbing the inside, and the distance is relatively shorter.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhang Yifei directly hit the steering wheel to the left to change lanes, blocking in front of Barrichello's car.

But at this moment, Barrichello flicked the brakes and walked around the back of Zhang Yifei's car, and did not intend to overtake from the right side at close range. Instead, one foot of the throttle rushes straight to the outermost line of the long arc straight.

Although this long straight has a curvature, the distance of the outside line is not as exaggerated as a normal curve. However, no driver will "go far away" and take the initiative to go to the outermost line, at most overtaking from the middle line of the track.

So for Barrichello's move, Zhang Yifei was completely defenseless, and when he reacted to what Barrichello wanted to do, it was already too late!

That's right, Barrichello's idea is actually quite simple, he just intends to overtake with the outermost and longest track. After all, the performance of the Ferrari car is here, and if the full throttle is passed, the difference between the speed of the two cars is 12km/h in absolute terms on the winter test track.

That's a figure for a Formula 1 car that can reach speeds of hundreds of kilometers per hour, which equates to a performance gap of three percent.

Of course, this is a theoretical absolute speed difference, and it is impossible for the car to run at full speed during the actual race. So this performance gap can be reduced to two percent or even less in the race.

But even if it is one percent, in the F1 race for more than an hour, it can rely on the performance of the car to shake off the gap of tens of seconds.

That's why when a powerful race car comes along, it's dubbed a "Mars rover". Because driving this kind of car is equivalent to not racing on the same level as other drivers, how do earthlings play

However, at the moment, the fastest car in the F1 circuit is not the current Ferrari car, but the McLaren car.

It's just that McLaren is fast, but there is a big problem with consistency, which is why Kimi Raikkonen retired from the last race. Therefore, in many cases, fast does not mean that the rover is fast and stable, so as to occupy an absolute advantage.

The Ferrari car had accelerated at full throttle, the engine was bursting with furious power, and even Barrichello's expression was a hint of hideousness.

can express Barrichello's mentality at this moment: Lao Tzu can't run away from Schumacher, can't he run away from you

Zhang Yifei also stepped on the full throttle, and quickly changed lanes to continue to block in front of Barrichello's car. Because he knows that even if he is fighting for speed at full throttle, he will definitely lose in the end.

The only hope was for Barrichello to stop him again before he could finish overtaking and continue to press the car.

It's just that this time Zhang Yifei is a little powerless, the gap in performance, plus the time it takes to change lanes, he can only watch the red Ferrari car next to him, little by little over his rear wheel, and gradually come to a position side by side with him.

But at this time, Zhang Yifei still did not give up the lane change action, nor did he choose to surrender and admit defeat, but stuck to Barrichello and drove side by side with him.

Zhang Yifei's action made many people's expressions begin to become serious, especially the professional team members present. Because they had vaguely guessed in their hearts what this Chinese kid was going to do.

"Cosell, Fei is going to take an adventure!"

Alessi's race engineer Codd was the first to warn that because the track is counterclockwise, the corners are basically left-hand bends.

And the alignment of any curve also follows the tangent method of "outside-inside-outside", which is the fastest cornering method.

Barrichello is now on the right side of the lane, and when the long straight is done in the left corner, he will have to cut from the outside in. Otherwise, at this speed, there is a risk of going off the track.

But now Zhang Yifei is side by side with him, which is equivalent to blocking his direction to the inward tangent. This kind of scene is often seen on the track, either Barrichello is relying on the speed advantage, overtaking Zhang Yifei to grab the line and cut the line inward. Either they can only be forced to slow down and fall behind Zhang Yifei to make a corner.

And Zhang Yifei sticks so tightly that he doesn't intend to give Barrichello any chance to "touch the fish", which is equivalent to cutting off the possibility of side-by-side corners.

Even the members of the Prost team can vaguely feel that Zhang Yifei's move is to squeeze Barrichello directly out of the corner!

"It's too risky to fly, how can the miracle of Malaysia be replicated again"

Henry frowned and said, but now at this moment, it is too late to dissuade through the convoy voice!

Zhang Yifei's operation, theoretically, if all aspects follow the script, he can squeeze Barrichello out of the track, and his own car is not in big trouble.

But the problem is that collisions with speeds of up to hundreds of kilometers per hour, even if the opponent "cooperates" with all their might, may not be as perfect as the idea.

The competition between Zhang Yifei and Yang Long in Malaysia has already had a scene of "both loses". It's just a rain battle that allowed Zhang Yifei to create his own track miracle, and finally became famous because of the blessing of misfortune.

If a miracle can become a daily occurrence, it is not worthy of being called a miracle, Zhang Yifei cannot continue such good luck on the track for two consecutive races, this kind of gambler psychology is really a bit too much!

Cosell listened to Henry's warning, and the expression on his face was a little ugly. In a sense, Zhang Yifei's current showdown with Barrichello in the practice match is his default result.

It's just that Korsell underestimated Zhang Yifei's determination, this kid faced a Ferrari driver like Barrichello, and actually planned to push the other party off the track, which was simply beyond everyone's expectations.

But Korsell had a hunch in his heart that Zhang Yifei underestimated Barrichello's toughness.

It is true that he is the second driver of Ferrari, and even under the aura of the powerful Schumacher, he began to develop in the direction of wingmanship, and the team's resources are basically tilted towards Schumacher.

Barrichello didn't say anything about this kind of team arrangement, but Cosell's track strategy team experience can feel Barrichello's hidden dissatisfaction.

If he was a driver who was completely resigned to his fate, he would not have taken a flying horse at the Interlagos circuit to "stand up".

Because all F1 drivers actually have a sense of home and country at home, maybe Barrichello can't resist the decision of the Ferrari team. But in front of his country's compatriots, Barrichello doesn't want them to see that the rider he supports is a soft egg.

Things have developed to this point, and it is unrealistic to expect Barrichello to regress!

The scene on the track was indeed exactly what Cowel envisioned. Although he was about to enter the corner, Barrichello's speed did not slow down in the slightest, and he was still accelerating at full throttle, ready to enter the corner before Zhang Yifei.

100 meters, 50 meters, 10 meters!

This distance on the track is a change of light and light for the speed of an F1 car.

With the earlier full-throttle acceleration and the performance advantage of the Ferrari car, Barrichello still led the car by more than half of Zhang Yifei, and his rear wheel had already come to the position of Zhang Yifei's front wheel, ready to make a left turn and cut corner.

But Zhang Yifei did not have the slightest idea of giving way, so that the two cars would collide. However, using the front wheel to hit the rear wheel, Zhang Yifei has a great advantage, and he may stage an "American-style stop" on the track.

The so-called "American-style stop" means that when the US police are chasing the fleeing vehicle, they will directly accelerate up, and then the front of the car will hit the rear of the car in front laterally.

This collision method can directly hit the car in front of it 180 degrees and park directly on the road, and then the police can start to arrest.

This kind of impact on the track will definitely not be able to stage a perfect "American-style stop", but in any case, Zhang Yifei feels that he cannot suffer. Since Barrichello is determined to grab the line, Zhang Yifei, who already occupies an advantageous parking space, is impossible to let the car go.

But just when the two cars were about to collide, Barrichello took a slight brake and directly used the hardest frame in the middle of the car to push Zhang Yifei's front wheel.

This strength is not very large, and the relative speed of two people side by side is actually about the same. However, this impact force is enough for an F1 car that is cutting corners at the wheel to oversteer.

Zhang Yifei, who was originally running smoothly, began to swing left and right in an instant.

Faced with this situation, Zhang Yifei immediately corrected the steering wheel, and then kept braking on his feet to slow down. The more oversteer in this high-speed situation, the more you must be calm and not press the brakes to slam the steering wheel, otherwise you will lose the opportunity to save the car and will be completely out of control.

It's just that F1 cars don't coast for long distances like ordinary cars. Zhang Yifei only has less than a second, either to save the car back, or to rush off the track, there is no third way to choose!
