Scuderia Ferrari headquarters, Maranello, Italy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Schumacher, who has become a consultant to the Ferrari team, stood in front of the red car, frowning as if he was thinking about something.

This red car is Ferrari's new season car, the F60. Compared to last year's F2008, the F60 has changed a lot in design, especially the width and height of the rear wing, due to the requirements of the new rules, it is not so flat and wide, and it looks a bit retro.

"Shumi, do you want to go up and try it? You've never had a test drive of our F60 since it was born! A voice rang out, and it was none other than Chris Dyer, the team's race engineer supervisor.

Schumacher shook his head: "No, I don't want to be added to that young driver training list again!" ”

As a Formula 1 driver, it would be very bad to wake up one morning and find yourself on a list of young drivers, and the reason he entered this list turned out to be that he had test-driven the Ferrari F2008 last year, which is why he has not test-driven the new Ferrari F60 this year.

Schumacher turned around and asked, "That double diffuser made by Ross Brown seems to be very effective, and they won first place in the Barcelona test!" Heard that Force India has reported the double diffuser violation to the FIA? ”

"Yes. In fact, if the Indian forces don't report it, maybe we will report it too. Dale spoke.

"We? Such a report is unlikely to be successful. The double-layer diffuser is not prohibited by the rules, at most it is a loophole in the rules. FIA itself made a mistake and it would be unfair to let the team bear the consequences. Schumacher said categorically.

"Shumi, you're right. So our R&D department has already started to develop our double layer diffuser, and the first sample should be out soon. Just you know, the diffuser is a very important part of the car, and the whole aerodynamics of the car need to be adjusted, and we started late and we cancelled the mid-season testing this year, so we probably need more time to tune it up. Dale spoke.

"We've already started research, so why report it?" Schumacher was slightly stunned, and then immediately understood: "Are we trying to confuse our opponents?" ”

Dale nodded: "We can't let our opponents, especially McLaren, get ahead of us in their development progress. But now that we have the cannon fodder of the Indian Power convoy in front, we just need to fan the flames in the back! Our communications department has just contacted Force India to express our support! ”

……

At the same time, at the headquarters of Red Bull Racing.

F1 legend Nevey looked at the double-layer diffuser he had designed, and shook his head a little dissatisfied.

"No, then the whole aerodynamic package would have to be changed." Newey leaned back in his chair, his eyes closed, and began to think.

"Director! We've just gotten the news that Force India Racing has reported a double layer diffuser violation to the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile! Newey's assistant hurried in and spoke.

"Really? I was expecting Ferrari to move. It's great to have someone as cannon fodder! Nuvey smiled: "Let's also issue a statement to show our support for India's power." Uh, symbolic support will do the trick! ”

……

McLaren Racing.

Last year's world champion Lewis Hamilton was complaining to the team's technical director, Paddy Lowe, "Without the double diffuser, we were a lot slower in the corners, I had to use more shoulders to get through the corners, but even then I couldn't keep up with the Chinese Power!" We've been following the red Ferrari and we finally beat him last year, but this year, I don't want to be behind another red car! ”

"Lewis, don't worry, the team has already started working on a double-layer diffuser. Believe me, give me half a month and I'll be able to put a double diffuser on our race bike! Lowe opened his mouth to comfort.

"But I've heard that we're supporting Force India's report of a double diffuser violation!" Hamilton said dissatisfied.

"Hahaha, Lewis, that's just a façade, a façade for us to confuse Ferrari! We were ostensibly against a double-layer diffuser, but in fact we were secretly developing a double-layer diffuser, and when we succeeded in developing it, we would have surprised Ferrari by installing it on the car! We were able to play Ferrari by surprise! Lowe continued: "As for the Indian Power convoy, well, sometimes there has to be cannon fodder charging into battle, doesn't it?" ”

……

Renault Racing Team.

Alonso is undoubtedly one of the best drivers alive as the man who ended the Schumacher dynasty, but Renault's cars have not been very good in recent years, and the team has gradually withdrawn from the championship.

But that didn't affect Alonso's winning spirit, as he was in front of the car with a handful of technicians working on a double-layer diffuser.

"We have to consider whether the extra horsepower provided by the recuperation system will affect the downforce of the double diffuser......," Alonso paused, then added: "I'm not used to this new recuperation system, maybe we can try to remove the recuperation system and use a double diffuser, so that our car should be at least five kilometres lighter, maybe it will make up for the speed difference without the recuperation system." ”

"Fernando!"

Alonso heard someone calling for him and immediately poked his head out to see a maintenance engineer from the team approaching.

"Fernando, Director Allison asked me to tell you that you don't have to be in such a hurry to research the double-layer diffuser. Force India has filed a complaint with the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) and the double-walled diffuser may be found to be in violation. The mechanic spoke.

"Oh, that looks like we can leave early today." Alonso unzipped his coat and prepared to go to the dressing room to change.

"I've heard that Ferrari, McLaren and Red Bull Racing have all issued statements expressing their support for Force India's demands, and maybe the double diffuser will be banned before the start of the race!" The repairman continued.

"Huh?" Alonso was slightly stunned, he thought about it carefully, and then zipped up his clothes again.

"Looks like we're going to pick things up! I guess the samples of Ferrari's double-layer diffusers will come out! I've been fighting Ferrari for so many years, and I know the tricks best. Alonso turned to the maintenance technician and said: "You go and tell the director, these are smoke grenades released by Ferrari, they are confusing the opponent, and as for the Indian power, it is nothing more than cannon fodder sent by the big convoy...... But I think we can do it too! ”

……

"Master, Scuderia Ferrari, McLaren, Red Bull and Renault have all shown their support for us." The official bowed slightly, but there was a joy in his tone.

"Great! With so many teams supporting us, Zhang Guan's mood must be very bad now! I believe that it will not be long before the FIA will announce that the double-layer diffuser is violated, and the hard-working car will be scrapped so soon! Haha, Zhang Guan, I see what you are fighting with me now! Omi seemed very happy, and he didn't have the consciousness of being cannon fodder at all! (To be continued.) )
