Chapter 235: Shanghai Premiere (3)

The deafening sound of wheels, the F1 craze spread like an unstoppable flame throughout Shanghai and even throughout China. Although only one in every person in China owns a car, although the TV broadcast of F1 has only been launched nationwide since last year, although many of the 150,000 viewers who come here to watch the game can't even tell the clutch and the accelerator, and many people can't even name other drivers and teams except Ferrari and Schumacher, but like all fashionable and trendy things, on the territory of this shining pearl of the East of China, People are quickly embracing F1, which should be a very niche and very bourgeois thing in China no matter how you look at it, with no less enthusiasm than those of die-hard fans.

So, after taking out the money ranging from 370 to 3700 yuan, every Chinese person who came to the track waited for the arrival of the official competition with the hope of coming here. There are celebrities from all walks of life who are fully exposed in front of the camera in such a grand and lively occasion, white-collar workers who have spent a lot of money to show their fashion by the way for their girlfriend to smile, there are new new humans who pursue excitement and freshness but can only squeeze into the hillside a few hundred meters away from the track, and of course, there are also parents who hope that they and the next generation can feel the atmosphere of the World Series in advance. At the same time, there are also many die-hard fans who have traveled thousands of miles to cheer on their favorite drivers and teams......

In short, when Formula 1, the world's most expensive race, landed on Shanghai with all its own expectations and a little skepticism. People in this ancient country are also looking at this movement that has been popular all over the world for 50 years with strange thoughts.

Many people don't know what the "little sugar ball" is, and they don't know the role of the safety car!

There are also many people who don't know that they are giving up sitting in front of the TV and going to watch the game. In addition to being able to feel the warm atmosphere of the game, in fact, in many cases, it is not even clear who is ranked first on the field at this time!

Many of them were so scared that they cried when they first heard the roar of an airplane engine at the beginning of the first day of qualifying!

But all this still can't stop the enthusiasm of the Chinese to continue to accept this feast! The number of attendees of 150,000 has set a record for the number of spectators in a single event in the history of Chinese sports! The 3 RMB ticket sales revenue is enough to boast of all the previous commercial events held in China! While everyone who arrives is still trying to find what they want here, the giants of F1 can finally smile for the first time and face the things they had imagined to get out of this ancient and modern country......

And when the feast kicked off with a homegrown Chinese driver winning pole position, the whole of Shanghai and indeed the whole of China finally fell into a madness rarely seen in this people! It can be said that, just like F1 itself, Ye Feng quickly conquered his compatriots who were paying attention to this event with such a fantastic start! Now I am afraid that the most conservative Chinese can't help but look forward to a more exciting moment in their hearts after witnessing Ye Feng beat Barrichello to grab the pole position yesterday! And if there is a hint of regret in this, it is that the heart of every Chinese fan now actually hopes that the person who starts on the right side of the leaf can be Schumacher instead of Barrichello. To be able to beat the car king in the first China race, what could be a more attractive ending?

However, when the majestic and passionate March of the Volunteers resounded throughout the track, when the clock passed through 14 o'clock Beijing time, any conjecture was no longer important.

......

Clothed completely, Ye Feng, who was already sitting in the cockpit waiting for the warm-up circle to begin, took a deep breath. Although it was just a warm-up circle, the old leaf gloves at this time were already wet with sweat. Since he forced himself to fall asleep early after listening to Boss Sai's words last night, Ye Feng tried his best not to think about today's game. But really when Ye Feng stepped into this arena again. When he watched his compatriots who were even more fanatical than yesterday cheering their names enthusiastically, Ye Feng was still easily infected by the fanatical atmosphere on the scene.

When he thought that he could control his emotions freely, Ye Feng realized that just the frenzied atmosphere of a home stadium could make him so restless at this time. Ye Feng didn't know what other drivers were like, but in the face of such a wave of cheers composed of native languages. Ye Feng knew that he really couldn't keep himself indifferent! So the feeling of excitement and fluttering yesterday reappeared on Lao Ye's body, making him both excited and a little unreal. Even after meeting the extremely unlucky car king, Ye Feng didn't have the heart to chat with the still optimistic Schumacher for a few words and hurriedly started his own no? Preparation for the competition...

"Leaf! We're all looking at you! But you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself! Just keep yourself in shape! In any case, you are the pride of all of us! On behalf of the team, I would also like to wish you on the track in your home country. Good luck! Just when the red light for the release of the tire warmer gradually went out, Michael's voice also sounded in Ye Feng's headphones. The Australian's voice was not high at this time, but Ye Feng could also feel the deep blessing of the team leader and all his teammates in this restrained blessing. At the same time, seeing the red light go out, Ye Feng felt that all the hairs on his body stood up, just for the arrival of this moment!

"No problem! Everyone is waiting for my good news! I'm so proud of all of you, too! Ye Feng, who was already excited because of the beginning of adrenaline secretion, swore into the microphone and said, and at the same time, a series of starting actions were also made, according to the previous practice. With this declaration, Ye Feng's blue chariot should also be the first to rush out of the track.

The deafening roar of the engine suddenly burst out completely! The entire upper track was suddenly shrouded in an artificial sonic boom that is difficult to describe in words! But at this moment when everything is constantly changing rapidly, everyone on the track and in front of the TV at this time was shocked and speechless by the scene they saw at this time! The machine was roaring loudly, but the situation in front of them was so ethereal and unreal! When 10,000 possibilities were imagined to predict the start of the game, no one would have imagined that the scenario presented now would be exactly the 10,000th and 1st picture......

Just when all the cars quickly started to warm up the tires, Ye Feng's blue Williams racing car, which attracted almost everyone's attention, still stopped quietly in place, without any sign of moving forward! 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 minutes, until the Minardi car at the end of the line passed by Ye Feng's car, everyone who witnessed this scene finally realized that Ye Feng's car had malfunctioned! And according to the rules of the game, no matter whether Ye Feng can continue to participate in the competition at this time, but the pole position that he grabbed with his excellent performance was easily given to Barrichello! And even if the fault can be quickly eliminated, then Ye Feng will only be forced to start his journey of the Chinese Grand Prix with the car king Schumacher from the pit lane entrance depressed, who would have thought that the duel between Ye Feng and Schumacher that people are looking forward to will actually happen in such a scenario......

......

Letting the staff push his car towards the exit of the pit lane, Lao Ye didn't know what kind of expression his face should have at this time. I started the inspection of the car early, checked it over and over again, but I didn't expect that in the end the problem would be a small operation mistake on his own! It's like a person who has won a $5 million lottery only to find out that they have lost their ticket! Seeing that his car was re-ignited and then lined up in the red F-2004 of the car king, Ye Feng really wanted to give himself a few slaps in the face! In short, Lao Ye's face is a big loss today! And what made Ye Feng unbearable the most was precisely his motherland, and there were not only 150,000 compatriots in the stands who came to support him, but also two women in his heart: his mother and Gu Lin were watching him. What won the championship in his homeland, and what he wanted to write history with his own name, in the end, Ye Feng felt that God was playing a big joke with him! Thinking of this, Ye Feng even wanted to find a crack in the ground immediately and never come out again......

"Boy! You'd better stop thinking about it now! You guy always takes yourself too seriously! Do you think it's your face that matters most right now? No! Definitely not! Take a look at the fans around you who have traveled thousands of miles to support you! They're the most important people here! As a professional driver, it's your responsibility and obligation to dedicate the best race to them! Forget about history! Think about what your fellow citizens and teammates around you would most like to see right now! The race continues! ”

Just when Ye Feng was still depressed there, Senna suddenly gave Lao Ye a hard lesson again. The car god always doesn't say it, and when he says it, it must be that kind of deafening feeling! After getting along with Lao Ye for so long, Senna naturally knew what Ye Feng needed most now, so he didn't even have time to have more ideas, Ye Feng, who was scolded badly, seemed to be like a wild wolf who had been awakened, holding the steering wheel hysterically with wide eyes, as if he was about to devour the car king in front of him......

At this moment, the cars that had run another warm-up lap were back in the starting area, and soon when all the red was extinguished, the Chinese Grand Prix, which had been dramatic from the beginning, finally officially kicked off......
