Chapter 606 Racing Genius

Zhang Guan ushered in his first timing lap.

All racing sports are all about speed. This is true for sprinting in track and field, and the same is true for racing cars. It’s just that racing cars need to run more than 50 laps in a game. The so-called advantages are more like accumulated lap by lap.

"Whoosh!" Zhang Guan drove the racing car, speeding past the big straight in front of the grandstand, quickly turned into Turn 1, and then accelerated towards Turn 2.

There are many high-speed corners on the Silverstone Circuit, among which Turn No. 2 to No. 6 are a series of high-speed corners. This kind of continuous high-speed corners has high requirements on the driver's driving skills. Back then Schumacher broke his leg, It was at Turn 4 at Silverstone that he went off the track and hit the guardrail.

Ross Brown once witnessed the moment when Schumacher broke his leg, so when Zhang Guan passed through this series of consecutive tell-tale corners, Ross Brown couldn't help becoming nervous.

"Be careful!" Brown clenched his fists. He felt that Zhang Guan's speed was very fast, so he was afraid that Zhang Guan would not be able to control the brakes and fly away, causing an accident.

However, Zhang Guan passed these consecutive high-speed corners smoothly, and then entered the next straight.

"The rhythm of this cornering is great! It feels a little familiar... By the way, Zhang Guan, who is driving an F1 car for the first time, how can he master the rhythm of cornering so well? This kind of cornering is completely experienced. Only an experienced driver can show it." Ross Brown shook his head in puzzlement.

Turn 7 is a right-angle turn, and turns 8 to 10 are big hairpin turns. These two corners are not difficult, and then turn 11 and 12 are high-speed turns.

Ross Brown can't see the situation on the track. This is not a race. There are not so many cameras facing the track. In fact, even in an official race, he rarely looks at the picture on the track. The monitor of the car is full of dense data, including engine data, tire data, and driver operation data. Through these data, he can make more accurate judgments.

However, at this time, Ross Brown was extremely surprised by the data in front of him, not because of the poor data, but because the data were too perfect.

"The control of the accelerator, the timing of the brakes, the rhythm of shifting... How is it possible! How is it possible to have such perfect data! How could this kind of data be made by a newcomer who touched the Formula One car for the first time? Now he He has already run two-thirds of the distance, without any mistakes during the period, according to this level, he can get a good result even in qualifying! How did he do it?" Ross Brown had a feeling in his heart. He wanted to call Zhang Guan out of the car, and then asked him if he had been in a Formula One car from other places before.

However, Ross Brown also knew that this was obviously impossible. He could be sure that Zhang Guan was driving a Formula One car for the first time.

Formula 1 racing is different from other sports competitions. Like basketball and football high jump and long jump, an athlete can practice on his own if he has nothing to do, buy a football for tens of dollars, find an open space to play for a day, and find a sand pool to practice long jump at any time, so it suddenly appeared It is also normal for a folk master.

But Formula 1 is different. If you want to practice on your own, you have to have a car first!

There are only a little more than 10 teams in Formula One. This sport is so transparent that even if a certain team has an extra test driver, other teams can know immediately. And this thing is burning money when it runs. No team will lend a racing car worth three to four million dollars to others for practice, not to mention that practice requires a special venue, the asphalt on the general racing track, It is not up to the standard of running Formula One.

Therefore, it is completely impossible for Zhang Guan to practice running a Formula One car in private. Even if Zhang Guan participates in racing competitions in other sports, there will be traces in the news. Because of this, Ross Brown was in shock.

"Those who don't know this data think that Schumacher is running on it!" Ross Brown shook his head. Everything in front of him has broken his understanding of the sport of racing. At this time, even if he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it.

After the right-angled turn of Turn 14, there were consecutive hairpin turns of No. 15 and No. 16. Zhang Guan's turn was still very smooth, and he did not lose too much time by using the shoulder of the road. Then he turned around No. 17 high-speed corner, rushing towards the final destination.

"Woo..." The roar of the engine flashed past Ross Brown's ears, and he knew that Zhang Guan had crossed the finish line.

"How's the grade?" Ross Brown turned to ask the assistant next to him, only to find that the assistant was staring at the display screen in surprise.

"What's the score?" Ross Brown asked again, and the assistant woke up like a dream. He pointed to the screen and said, "1 minute 20 seconds 916..."

"What? 1 minute 20 seconds 916? You're right! How could it be so fast? Last year on this track, the qualifying time of this car exceeded 1 minute 21 seconds!" Ross Brown looked surprised explain.

"That's right, it's 1:20.916." The assistant nodded, and then said: "I also find it unbelievable. Last year at this Silverstone circuit, Button drove this car with a time of 1:21.631." , Zhang Guan is faster than Button!"

Ross Brawn thought for a while and said: "The British Grand Prix was held in July last year. Although we made some optimizations to the car in the following months, considering that the car used by Button is Familiar tuning, if other people come to drive, it should be impossible to be faster than Button! Did we add the right amount of fuel to this car?"

"According to your instructions, we only added less than one-fifth of the fuel. We were worried about accidents, so we deliberately added less fuel." The assistant continued.

"That's a light car, but even if it's a light car, it can't be so fast! It is said that he runs on the track alone and will not be disturbed by other cars, but this car is Button's car. It was tuned according to Button's familiar driving style. If Zhang Guan was familiar with the car tuning, wouldn't his speed be even more astonishing? How could such a thing happen! A rookie driving an F1 car for the first time must be fast A professional driver with eight years of experience in F1 racing? Coincidence! Must be a coincidence!" Ross Brown murmured.

Zhang Guan is still speeding on the track, and he is becoming more and more familiar with the tuning of these two cars. At the same time, the reduction of fuel also makes his speed faster and faster.

In the second timing lap, Zhang Guan ran within 1 minute and 21 seconds again.

"1 minute 20 seconds 899, Zhang Guan's speed is faster! So it was no coincidence just now! He can really drive this car to run within 1 minute 21 seconds! This is the first time for him to drive a Formula One car. !" Ross Brown took a deep breath, everything in front of him was so unreal, it made him feel like he was dreaming.

"genius!"

These two words flashed from Rose Brown's mind. He has been in the Formula One industry for decades, has seen many talents, and once discovered a driver like Schumacher, but today, Zhang Guan's performance made Ross Brown feel that, Those talented drivers in the past seemed so humble and not worth mentioning!

"I believe that after today, you will give me the new car with confidence!" The words Zhang Guan said a few minutes ago resurfaced in Ross Brown's memory again, and at this time Ross Brown finally knew, This is not just a joke.

"It seems that the new car is really going to be handed over to him!"
