Chapter 213: The Racing Factor (3)

Kerr can not pay attention to the result of the game, but Lao Ye is not so much in the back, he is struggling to catch up in the back of both games, he can't care about the mental pressure and continues to catch up. However, the track of this race is obviously more difficult to overtake than the Hockenheim Circuit, so even if Lao Ye tried his best, he only moved forward 2 after the opponents completed the first pit stop one after another, and the previous Raikkonen's retirement made Ye Feng temporarily in the fourteenth place.

Then the race was still dull and orderly, with each driver increasing their horsepower while defending the line where their opponents were overtaking. As the number of laps decreases, if it is enough to reach the finish line, then even Senna's resurrection will not allow Lao Ye to get a better position. However, just when everyone was a little drowsy by the boring scene of the scene, another car withdrew from the race due to a car failure. This time, the depressed person turned into Trulli of the Renault team, who was just in front of Lao Ye, and the Italian driver only let the car slowly stop after passing a corner, which also made Lao Ye, who could not see the other end of the corner for the time being, almost had a rear-end accident. The old Ye reacted too quickly and narrowly avoided the past, but for a while, the old Ye who had risen to one place was full of cold sweat behind him.

As if infected by Raikkonen and Trulli, there weren't many spectacular overtaking sights on the track, but a few cars withdrew from the race. The retirement of Toyota's Zongta made Lao Ye rise to the twelfth position. And when the second pit stop craze of the major teams arrived, Ye Feng, who was still galloping on the track, finally found a good opportunity to continue to catch up again. The cars, which had struggled in the first 30 laps, were finally back to their usual speeds. The Chinese driver in the blue chariot once again began his journey to challenge the fastest lap record on the track. After a series of tough catch-ups, Ye Feng finally overtook McLaren driver Kurthard, who had been in front of him since his second pit stop with six places remaining. Lao Ye, who regained the eighth place, finally lost all his momentum like a deflated ball, and the only thing to support him to complete the race at this time was to keep this position and get this valuable point for the team......

......

The end result was that Schumacher and team-mate Barrichello once again monopolized the top two drivers, and this result also allowed the red Ferrari to achieve an unprecedented feat of six consecutive titles! The only remaining suspense left is where Schumacher will lift his seventh trophy at the back of the race. The next stop, the Belgian circuit of Spa-Francorchamps, will undoubtedly be the place that all fans who follow Schumi are most looking forward to!

However, for the Williams team and Ye Feng, who could only silently look at the car king on the podium and cheer, it was not without gains. Their Montoya finished fourth in this race. And Ye Feng tenaciously won back a valuable point for the team when the car broke down for a while. It wasn't enough to get Williams to catch up with Renault and Anglo and American sooner, but at least the team was happy with the results they had worked so hard to achieve. However, if the FW-26 shows that if there are similar problems at the next race at Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium, then it will be empty words for the team to go one step further.

......

The next two-week break is neither too long nor too short for everyone involved in F1 and the teams. However, this time, Ye Feng did not let himself stay with the team's technician teammates as usual. Because of the hard pursuit of two consecutive stops, Lao Ye's spirit has been a little tired. In order to better prepare for the next game, Ye Feng decided to give himself a few days off. And Lao Ye is also a little annoyed by the bad weather in the UK now. After deciding to take a vacation, Lao Ye naturally remembered the old German man Scholz, who he hadn't seen for a while. I had always heard that the sun was particularly pleasant in his country house in Heidelberg, so this guy who wanted to bask in the sun hung up on Schulz with a phone call. On the phone, the German old man's voice was obviously much haggard than before, but as soon as he heard that Ye Feng was coming to Germany as a guest, Schultz still welcomed Ye Feng very happily. So without any stop, Lao Ye took a flight from London to Munich......

......

"Tell me! Mr. Schultz, what the hell is going on? From the moment I called you, I felt like you were different from usual, and now that I see you like this, I know something must have happened recently! Is it because of something in BMW or because of something going on at home? As long as I can help. Just say it! ”

In fact, from the moment Ye Feng saw Schultz this time, Lao Ye knew that something unusual must have happened to this old man. You must know that Schultz has always left Ye Feng with the image of a capable and rigorous elder. But what Ye Feng saw this time was an old man with a stubly beard and a little sloppy. However, Ye Feng still tried his best not to ask, but when he heard the old man's faint sigh after having dinner at Schultz's house, he couldn't help but ask again.

"This ...... Alas...... Ye, there are some things that you should know later! Actually, it's nothing. What should come will come! The key is that you take every opportunity now to improve yourself! I'm so satisfied to see you succeed one day! Schultz listened to Lao Ye's earnest question, and almost said all his recent depression, but after thinking about it, Ye Feng, the kid was still in the middle of the season, and the old man didn't say anything in the end.

"So that's about the inside of your BMW?" Ye Feng is also a smart person. As soon as I heard Schultz's words, I knew that this must have something to do with BMW

Now the biggest cooperation in the BMW Sport division is with Williams, could it be that this matter has something to do with the Williams team and himself?

"Leaf! Don't guess! This has nothing to do with you! Schultz saw that Ye Feng was in thought, and he knew what this guy was thinking. He first interrupted Lao Yedi's thoughts in a deep voice, and then continued after a while. "Some things may happen soon, but I can't tell you exactly what the outcome will be. But it's none of your business. You just have to do your job well! You'll find out when the rest comes! And also...... Ye, you must remember that no matter what time it is, no matter what happens in the future, you have only one goal, which is to improve yourself quickly. Go after win after victory, because I've always believed that you're one of only two racing geniuses I've ever met! And I'm sure your future achievements will certainly be no better than Michael's. Schumacher bad! Go for it! My boy! ”

At this time, Schultz was staring at Ye Feng so intently, just like staring at his own son. Recently, a series of hidden power struggles within the company have made Schultz, who has dedicated his life to BMW, feel tired, and when he now looks at the young man opposite him who he personally brought him into the F1 hall, the old man suddenly pinned his little expectations for motorsports on Ye Fengdi, and from now on, although this young man did not become as blockbuster as he imagined before, but he still developed rapidly, which also made Schultz feel a little comforted in his extreme frustration......

Ultimately. Ye Feng wanted to spend a short vacation in Schultz's manor, but the haze on the old man's face was completely dispelled. And until a few days later, when Ye Feng left Germany, the old man didn't tell him a word about the internal problems of BMW, but the old man kept telling Ye Feng to be cautious in choosing where to go in the future, and if necessary, he should also hire an agent to take care of these trivial matters for him. And Schultz's words aggravated Lao Ye's doubts. But knowing that the other party would definitely not tell him what happened, Ye Feng left with doubts.

However, after returning to the UK, Ye Feng was quickly led by the tense atmosphere of the team's preparation to forget about it. Five days later, Ye Feng and the team embarked on the journey of the Belgian Spa-Francorchamps circuit that he had once set foot on in the F race.

......

Once again, step aboard the Belgian Circuit Spa, which has been described as the best circuit in the world. Lao Ye's thoughts couldn't help but feel a little emotional. This is the place where Lao Ye first stepped on the formula racing track, and in that day's race, Ye Feng also presented a beautiful championship title as a gift for Senna's birthday with unparalleled speed. And the most unforgettable thing for Ye Feng is the first time in his life to hear the national anthem played and the national flag rising in a foreign land, there is no doubt that as a driver, it may be the most noble mission beyond the pursuit of personal honor and team interests! However, Ye Feng also understands that it is difficult for him to relive the old dream of half a year ago in this arena today, because the stage at this time has become F1, and there is no doubt that today's Spa Circuit has turned into a sea of red from the beginning!

For Schumacher, the Circuit de la Francorcorchamps is a place that will never be forgotten. It was here that Schumacher began his dream of becoming a king 13 years ago! What a coincidence in history that the Belgian race was the 700th race since the formation of the Scuderia Ferrari, and if he can do it here, he will also lift the World Championship trophy for the seventh time! Now, almost all eyes are on the king who is about to break his own record once again, and everyone wants to be a witness to a legend and history......

Qualifying for the Belgian leg started in a drizzle of local rain. However, such an environment did not bring any good luck to Ye Feng, who had always focused on practicing rain battles in the bad weather in England. In fact, from the last race, Ye Feng felt that the new batch of Michelin tires, whether dry or rain, performed awkwardly on the track. In the last game, Ye Feng's car was poor because of mechanical failure, but in this battle, Ye Feng clearly felt that the tires were pulling his hind legs. After qualifying with poor performance in both stages, Ye Feng, who started from heavy oil, only entered the official race on the second day as 14th. It was also his worst qualifying result since entering F1. Renault's Trulli took advantage of a short period of no rain to take the second pole position of his career by narrowly leading the driver.

The next day's official competition was destined to go down in history. But in addition to some of the game's memorable historical significance, the day's accident, which dazzled the television directors, was the subject of the game for a time. Just after the first lap. The safety car entered the track. To everyone's amazement, at least six cars were involved in the accident on the first lap alone......

The accident was first caused by Webb, who was in seventh place, having a scrape with Barrichello in front of him as he passed the first corner. Webber dropped the front wing for this, while Barrichello pitted on the second lap and replaced the rear wing. Then Sato, who was in line behind Ye Feng, successfully passed the first corner, and then picked up at the top of the Iou-Ruger bend when he dodged the slower Webb; lost control and crashed into the protective wall.

Bruni of the Minardi team skidped, and Pantano who was driving at high speed behind him did not have time to brake and crashed into Bruni who was lying on the track. The tail of the Minardi race car immediately erupted with flames! This frightened the staff present! The race did not dare to slack off, and immediately dispatched safety cars to guide the race. After the accident, Jordan and Minardi cars completely dominated the race

Divide the road surface. In addition, the front wing of Barton, which was in 12th place, was also lost......

However, Lao Ye, who started the fourteenth car, became one of the few guys who benefited from the mid-stage start. He moved up two places in the battle between Webber and Barrichello, and then took advantage of Barton in front of him to knock out the front wing. Lao Ye, who was ranked 11th, once saw the hope of getting points, so he stepped on his accelerator without hesitation after the safety car exited the track.

As the race continued, the once chaotic state of the track returned to calm. But when everyone thought the game was going to be exciting. Just after the run, there were cars on the track that withdrew from the race. This time the bad luck fell on Alonso, who had been the leader for a while, and under the pressure of Raikkonen, who overtook him all the way to get close to him, the car lost control and slid off the track, only to withdraw from the race. And Lao Ye rose one place again to the tenth ......

To be honest, this is really the most frequent and bizarre accident that Lao Ye has ever seen. Before he could overtake, he had continuously improved by 4, which was indeed something that Lao Ye, who was worried about his tire condition today, did not expect. That's not all, though! By lap 28, the remaining 15 cars were gone!

This time, it was Barton, who was in a hurry to catch up with his rival in front of him, and crashed Baumgartner's Minardi car in the lap. At the same time, he also stopped moving forward. And taking advantage of the safety car, Lao Ye also took the opportunity to raise his ranking to ninth, and pulled the distance between himself and the Kuta in front of him to the minimum, if Lao Ye continued to catch up like this. Then he will win the precious points for the Williams team again, but Lao Ye's smile finally came to an abrupt end on lap 32 of the race! And what made Lao Ye, who was sitting in the car aggrieved and smashing the steering wheel, was depressed that it was not the tire problem he had been worried about that was the problem, but the gearbox failure! The FW-26, which had been trained by Lao Ye himself, had a mechanical failure for the second time in a row, which suddenly shattered Lao Ye's dream of continuing to earn points. And before Lao Ye sat down in the pit lane of his team, he saw his teammate Montoya, who had been chasing the car king very closely, drive the car back to the pit lane, and the Colombian didn't even let his teammates repair the car at all, but directly turned off the car.....

Like other drivers who retired early, Lao Ye, who did not finish the race for the first time, could only watch the track in front of the monitor at this moment, as he galloped towards his seventh world championship trophy......

......

Eventually, when the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps returned to its former tranquillity, everyone witnessed the birth of a history that no one would be able to break for a long time to come. When Schumacher jumped onto the podium as he normally did in an unbeatable position, he only finished second. But it also means that the German king's seventh Drivers' Championship has been bagged by him.

7 times..:The great cause that Lauda, Piquett, Senna and others will look up to! At the same time, this victory is also Schumacher's fifth consecutive title, which is also the longest consecutive championship in F1 history, and the German broke the record of four consecutive titles set by Fangio that year. Perhaps, at this time, there was still dissatisfaction and contempt for the Germans in the hearts of many people, but when this seven-crowned hero showed his smiling face to people again, everyone was afraid that what was left in everyone's heart was the heartfelt blessing for his victory and great cause.

At least at this time, this is the thought in Ye Feng's heart, at least Ye Feng also felt that the boss Sai who was watching quietly from the side also showed his heartfelt respect for this guy who had stepped on his own death and reached the top of the world. Heroes cherish heroes! When all the disputes on the field of play disappeared, the two kings of different eras realized their commonality in an ethereal realm. And as the only Ye Feng in this world who can witness this moment, the only thing he can do is to cherish this precious memory forever in the depths of his heart in addition to being excited.

Looking at the cheering car king on the podium, feeling the sympathy of the car god in his body, Ye Feng understands that when he walks out of here, everyone may face a bland real society, but when a person really steps on this race full of speed and leakage, he will find that there are really heroes and legends in this world! Ye Feng has witnessed the demeanor of two generations of kings, and he is now more and more fond of racing, a sport that can have a person's lifelong dreams and misses, it is from this moment that Ye Feng really wants to use his name to write a new history of his own! Like the countless heroes of his predecessors before him......

"Hehe, if I were him, I would choose to retire immediately! This lucky and happy guy! Just when Ye Feng was feeling a lot there, Senna also muttered in a low voice.

"What? Boss Sai? What did you just say? Ye Feng vaguely heard something, but it wasn't real.

"Oh! It's nothing! Interrupted by Ye Feng's voice, the car god hurriedly looked at him left and right, he didn't want Lao Ye, a junior, to feel his psychological fluctuations, "Boy, don't envy that guy too much!" As long as you work hard, one day you will be greater than him and all of us! You always have to remember that heroes are meant to be surpassed! History is also meant to be rewritten! ”
