Chapter 677 Equal to Schumacher

After enjoying the champagne of victory, there will be another routine press conference. Only the top three drivers are eligible to participate in this press conference.

"Mr. Zhang Guan, there are media reports about the scandal between Sharapova and Djokovic, what do you think about it! Do you have any response? Are you going to break up with Sharapova?"

This is the reporter's first question. It has nothing to do with this race, and it can be said that it has nothing to do with motor sports. But when the reporter asked this question, all the reporters in the audience looked very interested. Looking at Zhang Guan, some people looked at the reporter who asked the question gratefully.

The race is over, and the outcome of the race is doomed. It is difficult to overtake on the Monte Carlo circuit, and the Monaco Grand Prix has no very attractive highlights. Therefore, Zhang Guan's love life has become the topic that reporters are most concerned about. More fascinating than the game itself.

"Cough, cough, cough..." The spokesperson of the organizer coughed dryly, feeling even more upset in his heart. He said first, "This question has nothing to do with the competition. I think Mr. Zhang Guan can choose not to answer."

Zhang Guan smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay. In fact, Ms. Sharapova and I have already broken up."

"Break up! They actually broke up?" The reporters at the scene were in an uproar, and no one expected this to be the result.

"When did it happen? Is it these few days?" Another reporter couldn't help but shouted loudly. His behavior was considered very rude.

"No, we broke up as early as last year." Zhang Guan didn't intend to hide it.

"Then why did you break up?" the third reporter immediately asked.

This time, Zhang Guan hadn't answered yet, but the sponsor's spokesperson grabbed the microphone first: "My friends from the press, this is the post-match press conference of the F1 Monaco Grand Prix. Matters related to the game. For things not related to the game, please conduct separate interviews at other times!"

The reporters who were originally excited could only sigh helplessly.

A reporter who looked older raised his hand and asked: "Zhang Guan, in the practice match on Saturday morning and the first two quarters of qualifying in the afternoon, your results were relatively mediocre. It seems that you were in the state of the game at that time. Not good, is it because of the scandal of Miss Sharapova?"

Hearing this question, the organizer's spokesperson wanted to stop it again, but the older reporter was the first to say: "The driver's race status should be related to the race, right?"

The spokesperson of the organizer hesitated to speak, but Zhang Guan responded to the microphone: "Actually, I was in good condition all day on Saturday, that's why I got the pole position of the race. In the main race, I also continued to maintain a good state and won the championship. The reason why the results in the practice session on Saturday morning and the first two quarters of the qualifying session in the afternoon were low is the tactical arrangement of the team."

"You mean to say that the team's tactics made you deliberately run slower?" A reporter immediately asked.

"Yes." Zhang Guan nodded, with a smile on his face: "I think it's because of my poor performance in the first two quarters of qualifying that so many cars choose light fuel!"

"It turned out to be like this. Zhang Guan deliberately lured other cars to compete for the pole position, so that they would also be light-loaded, and with light-loaded fuel, there would be fewer strategies to choose, so that the Chinese power team would have an advantage!" A senior racing reporter said suddenly.

"Actually, I would like to thank the media that released the report yesterday. They may want to influence my game state, but if it wasn't for them, we wouldn't just follow suit and make such a tactical arrangement." Zhang Guan said with a smile.

...

Omi stared straight at the TV, and what was playing on the TV at this time happened to be the post-match press conference, and Zhang Guan's softness fell into Omi's eyes, it was really incomparable Satire.

The sound of the mobile phone rang, and Omi cursed and took the mobile phone, and saw that it was his father's number.

"Oops! What should I do?" Omi hesitated for a few seconds before picking up the phone.

"Father..." Omi greeted with a guilty conscience.

"Omi, you have disappointed me and the family too much. What did you tell me before? Zhang Guan's game state has been greatly affected. He can't get points in this round? The result? He won again. Now that he has won the championship and has won six consecutive victories, he now has 55 points, which is twice as many points as the second place!" Old Maria's voice sounded.

"I'm sorry, father, I didn't investigate clearly. I thought that hyping Sharapova's scandal would make Zhang Guan uneasy and affect his game state. But I didn't expect that Zhang Guan and Sharapova, last year We broke up." Omi explained.

"Omi, what I need is not an explanation, but your actions." The old Maria went on to say, "I hope you can inherit the family business of the Maria family, that's why I let you take charge of the team, and that of you and Zhang Guan The $500 million bet is also an important weight for you to become the patriarch of the next generation of the family, but if you lose, it means that you have lost the opportunity to inherit the family, do you understand?"

"I understand. I'll try!" Omi said immediately.

"You have to work harder! Let me tell you another news by the way, your cousin is about to graduate from Cambridge University, and the family plans to hand over the management of the hotel in Las Vegas to him. If he does well, and If you lose 500 million US dollars, I think you should understand what it means!" Old Maria's voice became extremely serious.

Omi's expression also froze. The Maliya family is not just his heirs. There is no family planning in India, so Omi has a younger brother and several cousins. These are his competitors on the road to inheriting the family business. For Omi, if he can become the patriarch of the Maria family, he is even willing to sell his soul to the devil.

...

On June 7, the F1 race came to Istanbul, Turkey.

The Istanbul circuit is also a new circuit. These newly built circuits after the 21st century often imitate some classic circuits, and some even combine the characteristics of several classic circuits into one circuit. However, As a result, the track lost its original characteristics and became nondescript.

The Istanbul circuit is such a track. It has a single lap of 5.34 kilometers. The race needs to run 57 laps, with a total of 309 kilometers. Downhill, there are U-shaped bends and big straights. There's nothing very impressive about the track as a whole. The only difference from the other circuits is that the Istanbul circuit runs counterclockwise, while the other circuits run clockwise.

The Red Bull racing car is obviously more suitable for this new track, and the current Red Bull racing car also has a double-layer diffuser, so on this track, the Chinese power racing car has almost completely lost its advantage against the Red Bull racing car.

In qualifying, Zhang Guan did not get the pole position. He lost to Vettel with a gap of 0.021 seconds. In the end, he could only start second.

But the Red Bull team also paid a considerable price for this pole position, that is, Vettel is an ultra-light fuel load. And this also made Vettel have to use a three-stop strategy in the game.

Zhang Guan is still the safest second stop, and it is precisely because of one less stop that Zhang Guan won the championship in Turkey even though he started second.

The two drivers of Red Bull Racing were second and third respectively. Zhang Guan's teammate, Barrichello, encountered an accident in the race and had to retire. This was the first time that China Power did not win the championship.

But this is also Zhang Guan's seventh championship this season, seven consecutive victories in the season. This seven-game winning streak means that Zhang Guan has tied the record of the car king Schumacher's seven-game winning streak in the season.

In the next UK race, if Zhang Guan wins again, he will create a new history and surpass Schumacher in terms of winning streak!
