Chapter 281: No Pit Stop (25/20)
Expectations came to naught, and Vettel's mood was terrible. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Zhang Guan still didn't make a pit stop! What's going on this time? Got the wrong tire again? Or are the repairers fighting again? Vettel hissed over the radio.
"Uh...... No, I can see from here that the maintenance technicians of the Chinese Force are still standing there with tires, and they are waiting for Zhang Guan to enter the pit. The convoy replied.
"Waiting for a pit stop? Fart! Zhang Guan is running in front of me now! Vettel couldn't help but curse: "It's the 54th lap, I can't care so much, I want to pass him directly!" ”
Enraged, Vettel stepped on the gas pedal and he finally decided not to wait for Zhang Guan to make a pit stop, he wanted to take the initiative to attack, he wanted to overtake Zhang Guan.
Ross Brown looked at this scene and let out a deep sigh.
"It looks like Vettel has completely lost his patience! At least hold on for half a lap, and I can only help you get here, and the last two laps are more, it's up to you! Ross Brown waved his hand: "Let the maintenance technicians all come back, Vettel has already started to overtake Zhang Guan, and there is no point in them staying outside." ”
……
"Zhang Guan still hasn't made a pit stop, he's still insisting! Before you know it, there are only two laps left in the race. The narrator's voice revealed an incomprehensible emotion.
"Zhang Guan's tires were smoothed out a few laps ago, and now his tires are definitely in worse condition, it's really hard to imagine that he can hold on to such a set of tires until now, if it were any other driver, I'm afraid he would have rushed off the track many times." Another commentator paused, and then the clubhouse: "But then again, it's already 54 laps anyway, if it's me, I just won't make a pit stop, grit my teeth and persevere, and finish the last two laps." ”
"How is this possible, the rules don't allow it, don't forget that the rules require the car to use two types of tyres." The first narrator spoke immediately.
"In today's race, the other cars have been running on heavy rain tires, right?" The second commentator asked immediately.
"Oh yes, don't you say I almost forgot, the rule that you have to use two types of tires, except when it rains." The first narrator added.
"So that means in the rain, the driver can do without two types of tires? Doesn't this mean that Zhang Guan can run to the end with a set of all-rain tires? So he can not make a pit stop? The narrator exclaimed.
The next moment, both commentators fell silent.
It's already common knowledge that Formula 1 cars have to pit for refueling and tyres, and the rules actually force drivers to pit at least once, and anyone who knows the sport thinks so, so before that, people have subconsciously assumed that Zhang Guan will definitely make a pit stop.
How easy it is for people's minds to jump out of the framework of common sense! Breaking common sense itself is a difficult thing to do, for example, when someone says that water flows to a higher place, people's first reaction after hearing it must be the word "wrong", thinking that it is common sense for water to flow down.
Because of this, the two commentators fell silent at the same time, because their common sense was broken at this moment.
After a long time, one of them finally spoke: "If Zhang Guan really doesn't make a pit stop and runs the whole distance with a set of rain tires, will it be a foul?" ”
He put the word "if" very seriously, apparently still unwilling to believe that Zhang Guan would adopt a strategy of not making a pit stop.
"Well, I'm not sure, I'll have to ask the tournament side. However, if Zhang Guan really adopts the strategy of not making pit stops, I think it should be a non-foul, or at least this is a loophole. As the other man spoke, the camera suddenly switched to the pit lane.
"Look, the maintenance technician of the China Power team is back! They returned to the garage with their tires in their hands! ”
"Went back? Aren't you ready to make a pit stop? Is Zhang Guan really not ready to make a pit stop? ”
"No pit stop strategy, Zhang Guan really wants to use no pit stop strategy! Is he really going to do it? How dare he do that? Can he really do that? ”
……
At this moment, fans around the world watching this race were shocked by this scene. The strategy of not making a pit stop, something that has never happened in Formula 1, is actually appearing in front of everyone's eyes today!
However, after the shock, many fans even began to look forward to Zhang Guan's success, they saw a great race, an unprecedented strategy, and they wanted to see a miraculous result!
Witnessing the birth of a miracle is probably the most primitive desire of the human heart.
Inside the Red Bull Racing team, at this time, they also realized that Zhang Guan had chosen not to pit stop.
"Don't pit stop? Is that okay too? What are the rules allowing? ”
"Running all the way to the end, without refueling or changing tires, did Zhang Guan fill up the gas before the race? And can his tires withstand it? ”
Several of the engineers whispered, while Newey had a bitter expression.
"Played by the old fox Ross Brown again! I just took out the tires, and there was a fight with the maintenance technician, it turned out that they were all confusing me! This cunning guy is an honest man like me! ”
Ross Brown and Nuvey, both of whom can be called Formula 1 legends, can be said to be well-versed in all aspects of Formula 1 racing. In comparison, Nuvey is better at designing racing cars, he can design the most perfect aerodynamics, so he is known as the legendary design master of F1; And although Ross Brown is also very skilled in car design, he is really not as good as Newey, and Ross Brown is best at strategy, so Ross Brown is recognized as a master of F1 strategy.
Nuvey is certainly not an honest man, there are no honest people in the sport of Formula 1, sports competitions are not absolutely fair, to the racing field, in addition to the speed than strategy, but also to be more "dirty" than whom, in order to win unscrupulous means is a normal thing, those car kings which is not a guy with bad water in the stomach, even Schumacher has deliberately crashed the opponent to do it.
But Newey is really a good baby compared to the cunning Ross Brown, a "30 years of focus on designing racing cars", how can he compare to a "30 years of focusing on pit people" Ross Brown in terms of strategy?
Now, however, Nevi, or the entire Red Bull Racing team, has come to his senses.
The sound of the convoy rang through Vettel's headphones.
"We have determined that Zhang Guan will not make a pit stop, he will run all the way to the end!"
"Don't pit stop? Won't he change the tire? I see, is it because of the rain war? Is this allowed by the rules? Vettel asked.
"We're still checking whether the rules allow it, because it's the first time something like this has happened. But now for you, don't bother with the rules! All you have to do is go over and you have the last two laps to go, it's tight! The convoy's voice was anxious.
"Two laps? Enough for me! Zhang Guan's tires are about to wear out, and with this kind of tire running in the rain, he can't bear two laps! Vettel said confidently. (To be continued.) )
