Chapter 280: The Battle of the Guts (2)
As soon as the qualifying competition ended, sensitive reporters from all walks of life pointed their cameras at Ye Feng. The TV footage at the scene also stayed on the two men for a long time. Everyone wanted to see some expressions on Alonso's face, after all, Ye Feng's actions just now were tantamount to giving him an ugly look in front of Alonso's hometown father. However, to everyone's disappointment, the two men were wearing helmets when they returned to the garage, and people couldn't see what the two were thinking. However, anyone who knows Alonso should know that the Spaniards will not sit idly by in the face of such a serious provocation.
Sure enough, when the third quarter of qualifying was about to start, the first to rush to the pit lane and wait for the start was the Spanish driver, and he was followed by Ye Feng, who had just taken the lead, followed by the car king, Fisichella, Massa and Trulli. So a good show is going to be staged again! The six drivers of the three major teams even competed for the starting position in such a gas-guzzling stage, which shows that the smell of gunpowder has gradually become stronger in this race.
The final ranked battle has finally begun!
Alonso was the first to break out of the pits and begin his quest to take pole position. If he does win the first place, he will also take pole position for the first time in front of his hometown fathers. Whether it is to prove his strength as the defending champion in front of his compatriots and the world, or to suppress the arrogance of Ye Feng just now, Alonso requires himself to get the pole position of this station! He wants to use the perfect performance of pole position + championship to defend his title this year|Who would dare to say that he won the championship by taking advantage of Schumacher's lack of good cars and Ye Feng's withdrawal from the competition halfway......
The oil-burning enclosure competition is going on in such a circle, I don't know if it's intentional. Alonso's car had been firmly holding down the ground behind him, and he watched the young man he supported finally start to exert his power. Spanish fans at the scene also began to cheer Alonso on. The entire Circuit de Catalunya is already in the air at this point, and if you had turned on the TV or entered the arena at this time, you might have thought that it was the last official race to take place. This can almost be regarded as one of the most intense and hot qualifying matches in recent years, and the protagonist of this big battle is not involved in Schumacher for the time being, of course, the race is not over, and no one dares to say that the Germans have no chance to win pole position. But everyone knows that maybe the era of a young man is coming.
The meat part of the first ten minutes is finally over. When the five-minute countdown began, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. After a pit stop frenzy, it was Alonso who was the first to complete the pit stop and get out of the pits! And behind him was still followed by Ye Feng.
At the moment when Alonso began to enter the timing lap, every Spaniard watching the game almost held their breath, quietly expecting their hero to have a perfect performance, while at the same time, they were also paying close attention to the performance of Ye Feng, who also started his own timing lap behind. The live broadcast also focused on the two cars, and at the same time recorded and compared the whole process of the two races. Although both men can still have another lap at this time, everyone knows that at this point in time, any small anomaly could eventually lose pole position.
The first timing point is slower than Alonso's compared to Ye Feng! However, at the second timing point, Ye Feng already had a very slight lead! In the blink of an eye. The track finally erupted in cheers, as Alonso emerged victorious in this round. Ye Feng was narrowly second, and it seemed that the Chinese driver could only hope for a second time lap to make a comeback.
By this time, more and more drivers had completed the timing lap. Ye Feng's results have been squeezed to fourth! Faster than him were the King of Cars and his teammate Massa. Although a little slower than Alonso, Schumacher is still insisting on proving that he is not old. The situation on the ground has become even more chaotic. At this time, before people have recovered from the excitement of this timing lap, the last timing lap for each driver is about to start again!
Alonso's nerves are now tense to the fullest! Although previous competitions have also been extraordinarily intense. But this was the first time he had encountered such a fierce qualifying match. It was true that he was in the top spot now, but he didn't feel any less pressure from someone behind him. Now he's trying to get himself through the lap perfectly, and only by improving his time can he be more secure. Now he still regretted a little that he ran in front of Ye Feng. At this time, he would rather be the chaser behind him, rather than waiting for the opponent's results after completing his own race like now. It's really uncomfortable.
In the blink of an eye, Alonso's car ended his entire qualifying performance. Despite his best efforts, he was unable to rewrite the results he had just run. Now the only suspense will depend on the final results of the Chinese and the German behind him in the half and first laps. Whether he can get pole position or not is now in his hands.
Ye Feng had also used all the energy he could use. He felt that one more lap at this speed would put the engine in danger of bursting. Strictly speaking, Ye Feng felt that the engine power output of this car still couldn't make him feel completely happy, but being able to have such a speed now has completely exceeded his expectations! Confidence always rises with strength. But now Ye Feng is completely intoxicated
Yes, the important thing is that Ye Feng has regained the feeling of playing against his opponent before!
In an instant, Ye Feng also crossed the line! There was silence for a while! What made every Spaniard let go of their baggage was unbelievable that the Chinese kid who crossed the line behind their hero was actually 0.003 seconds faster than Alonso's time! How could this just be gone? Could it be that the Chinese so arrogant?
At this time, before everyone was depressed, another driver who seemed to be ignored by everyone who might decide the race also crossed the line! And so another incredible result appeared! Not half a minute yet, Michael. Schumacher improved Ye Feng's new score just now by 0.
Right now. While everyone's mouths were wide open, they had no idea what the final outcome of this qualifying match would be! The only thing left now is to wait for all the drivers to finish the race. What a Spanish Grand Prix. From the practice session to today's qualifying session, it was extremely exciting! No one knows what will happen tomorrow.
Finally, when Raikkonen crossed the line last, the hotly contested qualifying session finally came to an end. No one can surpass the results set by the drivers in the top three places before, which also means that the pole position of the Spanish Grand Prix is not Alonso, nor Ye Feng, but Schumacher! The king of cars once again proved his strength to everyone in the most direct way......
……
"Hey! Leaf! Don't run! Say what about you! Still running? The king of the car, who had completed a perfect qualifying performance, shouted loudly after seeing Ye Feng from a distance on the way back to the driver's rest area. And the guy in front of Lao Ye wanted to slip away when he heard that it was Schumacher's voice and didn't look at it. Just kidding, even if Ye Feng doesn't care too much about the results of this game. He didn't want to face the car king who had just beaten him in that way. To be honest, just now, Ye Feng had only one opponent in his eyes, like everyone else, but in the end, he forgot about the god-level figure who had won seven world championships. Now it seems how ridiculous such an idea is, although Schumacher doesn't know it, but now Lao Ye's face is a little unbearable, so he runs away. However, it seems that the king of the car is moving faster, and after a few steps, Lao Ye was caught by Schumacher.
"Hey, it's Michael! You were so good at the game just now! Congratulations! "I saw that I had failed to escape. Lao Ye immediately smiled heartlessly at Schumacher and said, it has been proved once again that this guy's face is indeed thick enough sometimes.
"Hey! You kid! When you see me, you run away without saying hello? How? With such a little ability, if you lose the game, you won't have the face to see people? Che Wang ignored Lao Ye's sneer and directly knocked on the guy's skull before saying.
"Hey, hey! Am I not doing sports? I didn't see you! Lao Ye continued to pretend to be stupid.
"That's it! You guy! I'm looking for you right now to get down to business! Schumacher smiled and let go of Lao Ye's arm at the same time. He hugged him again before he spoke.
"Business? What's the matter? Seeing that the car king was no longer joking, Ye Feng was a little at a loss. What is he and Schumacher on business now? Isn't it all end-of-season stuff? So, he looked at the car king suspiciously, and Schumacher was also looking at him meaningfully at this time.
"I've been thinking about one thing lately. Now I finally figured it out! You guy set me up in the first place! You kid, you have to make it clear to me today, or I won't let you go!" King Che glanced at Lao Ye and continued, and there was a kind of "grudge" in his eyes that made Lao Ye "frightened".
"What set? Michael, I don't understand what you're talking about! Now Lao Ye really feels that he is stupid, and what Schumacher said he is getting more and more incomprehensible.
"That's it! Brat! Then let's talk about the agreement I made with you! It was said that you beat me in two years at Williams and then you came to Ferrari to take over at the end of your two-year contract with Williams! But. I'm only now realizing that there is a big loophole in this agreement! Because it only says what will happen if you defeat me, but what if you can't beat me for two years? I don't want to compete anymore! I'm getting old and I'm retiring at the end of the season! Aren't you kid making fun of me? ”
Schumacher is no longer talking nonsense with Ye Feng now, but talking eloquently. In fact, what he said was indeed what he had been thinking about the most recently, but what prompted him to talk to Ye Feng now was because of Ye Feng's equally amazing performance just now. If Ye Feng really proved to be just a meteor, Schumacher would not have taken the initiative to mention that agreement. Now that Ye Feng is playing well, he can't help but make Lao Shu more anxious. The current situation is that Ye Feng is indeed a genius, but he is too far behind the top two Alonso and himself this season, and it is very likely that he will not win the championship or surpass himself. In that case, isn't that agreement the same as not saying it? At that time, he Schumacher was retired, but Ye Feng did not come to Ferrari, so how could he explain to Todd and the team? You must know that when Ye Feng was going to come to Massa, he Schumacher also patted Todd's chest.
"Michael. Heaven and earth conscience, I really don't have it! It's not over yet! I still have a chance to defeat you! Ye Feng listened to the other party's words. Also in a hurry. He and Lao Shu agreed on that
I really didn't think about it so much. What he was thinking about at the time was to use the two years to fight for the Ferrari to pick up the car king's class. Who knew that the situation changed so much later, and last year's Alonso and Renault rose like aphrodisiacs. And it's been a strong season. And he and Williams are indeed far behind now, which cannot but worry the car king.
"I don't care about that, you've got to make it clear to me today anyway, what if you don't win by the end of the season I'm going to do that? Don't blame me for worrying, because you've pulled down too much in the first five races! And until now, Cosworth's cooperation with Williams does not look successful! So it's much more likely that you won't beat me at the end of the season than you will beat me!
In a word. Let's put it this way! I mean, whether you can beat me or win the World Championship at the end of the season, next season you have to wear the red Ferrari shirt! Schumacher ignored Lao Ye's defense, the more he talked, the more excited he became, and in the end he couldn't help but show Lao Ye his hole cards, which can also be regarded as an ultimatum.
"This ......" Lao Ye didn't know what to say now, and he didn't know whether to be happy or depressed when he was so valued by the car king. And people are right, this agreement did have a big loophole in the beginning.
"Leaf! You should know your place in my heart! If you hadn't taken the initiative to make this agreement with me, maybe I would have mobilized the team to contact Frank at the beginning of last year to let you transfer! You should know that it won't be too difficult a task. And. For the transfer of Massa that you requested, I also vouched for Todd and them! You can't make it difficult for me! Schumacher continued to lobby on his own, and in his opinion, it was a waste of time for Ye Feng to continue to stay in a team like Williams. Only a top team like Ferrari can truly bring out 100% of Ye Feng's talent and strength. So whether as a friend of Ye Feng or a member of Ferrari, Schumacher wants Ye Feng to take over next year.
Ye Feng didn't speak now, after all, it was difficult for him to make such a major decision in such a short time. In the past, he only wanted to use these two years to win a long-lost championship for Williams to comfort the boss of Sai's eternal regret. But the reality is that he probably won't be able to do that this year. Just leave? Ye Feng really didn't want this to happen in his heart. But is it so untrustworthy to Schumacher, a young friend? This is also something that Lao Ye can't do. It's too hard.
"Boy! I know what you're thinking! I also know that the person you admire the most in your heart is actually not me. It's Elton. The reason why you made this two-year agreement with me in the first place was also to win back a championship for him at Williams. I understand that, just as I regret not being able to really beat Elton until now.
Sometimes, however, we can't go too far against reality. And not all of our wishes in life can be finally fulfilled! Regrets are inevitable! Schumacher naturally knew what Ye Feng was thinking in his heart and what he was doing now, he patted Lao Ye on the shoulder and said.
"Michael! Don't talk about it! I figured it out! I promise you, no matter what the result of this season, I will report to Ferrari as scheduled! But here's what I want to say. Even before the end of the season, I still haven't given up the hope and courage to win the championship! ”
At this time, Ye Feng finally raised his head and looked at Schumacher calmly and said. At this moment, he finally figured it out. Keeping one's word is indeed the first creed of his Ye Feng's life. And what made him feel amazing was that when Schumacher said what he said just now, Senna also said the same thing in Lao Ye's heart. Being persuaded by two god-level figures, maybe only Ye Feng can enjoy it.
However, in his heart now, Ye Feng had another thought. After today's high-level performance of people and cars, Ye Feng's **, which had disappeared for a long time, was burning in his heart again. Isn't it just the difference between the five races? So what? Life in the world should be a happy fight for him! Success or defeat, in short, you won't regret this life!
So, what surprised Schumacher was that in addition to Lao Ye being able to make a decision so quickly, he saw a flickering ambition in this kid's seemingly calm eyes at this time. At this moment, Ye Feng, the genius who surprised and admired the original car king, seemed to have returned to his Schumacher's eyes. So, after staying for a long time, Schumacher patted Ye Feng's shoulder again and said:
"Huh! Attaboy! That's right! In this way, the previous games will not be counted. From tomorrow's game to the end of the season, as long as you can finish with more points than me, you will beat me! ”
"Huh! Michael! No, it's not fair! You don't have to comfort me! Because in the end, who will have the last laugh, not necessarily! Ye Feng smiled faintly and rejected the good intentions of the car king. A season is a season, whether it is performed or not, it is a whole, and to defeat an opponent you have to beat it as a whole, not partially.
"Good! Then we'll see! Looking at Ye Feng, who was surging with vigor in his calmness, the king of the car couldn't help but say happily that at this time, he also felt that there was an opponent worthy of fighting him. So he couldn't wait for tomorrow's game to start.
