The red flag represents the end of the race, and all cars must return to the starting area to wait.
The safety car flashed with warning lights and stopped at the front of the departure zone, and all the cars behind it stopped. The team's maintenance engineer braved the heavy rain and rushed out for the first time, putting up an umbrella and putting it on the head of the car.
According to the rules, the game will have a first 10-minute wait, and wait for the match officer to assess whether the weather condition restarts the match. If the game ends here, the final ranking will be determined according to the penultimate lap before the red flag is presented.
In the past of one minute and one second, no matter the driver, the maintenance technician or the audience, their hearts become anxious. They don't know whether the race will continue. But Zhang Zhang's heart was peaceful. He leaned on the back of the cockpit, opened the helmet's goggles, and began to close his eyes and relax. On top of his head, the maintenance engineer held an umbrella for him, and there was a person next to him holding an electric fan to face him to relieve the heat and cool him down.
"Like what I remembered, the game ended in the end!" Zhang Guan thought silently. If it's not comfortable in the cockpit, he even wants to take this opportunity to sleep.
The race only ran 33 laps, and has not reached 42 laps of 75% of the total distance. If the race is completed now, the points earned by all drivers will be halved.
Drivers and spectators cannot wait indefinitely. No one knows when this rain will stop, no one knows when this rain will be small, and it may even be smaller. After restarting the game, it will again come to a larger rainstorm.
The first 10 minutes passed, the official still did not give an answer whether to continue the game, people started the second ten minutes of waiting, and then the third ten minutes.
The third ten-minute wait finally came to fruition. At this time, the heavy rain still did not weaken. Time was no longer allowed to run to lap 42. The tournament official finally announced that the Malaysian Grand Prix had ended. The driver's ranking will be calculated based on the results of the first two laps of the red flag.
Zhang Guan undoubtedly won the first place, but the points were halved and only 5 points were scored. Zhang Guan's teammate Barrichello scored the second place and scored 4 points, and the Force China team once again took the top two.
Barrichello climbed out of the car, he took the lead to hug Zhang Guan, at this time he could not hide the excitement on his face.
In Barrichello's view, his runner-up seemed to be picked up in vain. If he chose to change the tire just now, he would definitely fall to the fifth place. At that time, he was absolutely missed from the podium. It was because of Zhang Guan's suggestion that Barrichello insisted on using a rain tire for a few laps, which instead gave him the advantage of one less pit stop and helped him reach the podium.
In addition, Barrichello felt lucky that the game was terminated early due to heavy rain.
With Barrichello’s current fuel level, he can’t finish the last 20 or more laps. If the game doesn’t end, he will definitely have to pit in and refuel, so he will still delay some time, maybe he will be Crowd down the podium. It was precisely because the race was terminated early that the drivers' rankings were fixed and Barrichello picked up a runner-up.
For a 37-year-old veteran such as Barrichello, it is already very good to get a pension contract. In fact, he is also seeking a pension contract. Now he can be on the podium for two consecutive stations, and Still runner-up, this is definitely an unexpected surprise. It's like an nba out-of-star player who suddenly entered the mvp competition industry when the veteran's base salary was higher. The feeling of surprise has surpassed the achievement itself.
...
For many spectators, it is regrettable that the game was terminated early. I bought the whole ticket but only watched half of the game. If the qualities are of a lower quality, I am afraid that I will yell for a refund. Fortunately, car fans are not bad money, and can spend hundreds of dollars to buy a ticket for the f1 race, at least in Malaysia are considered rich.
The final result of the game is also acceptable to the audience. There are many Chinese in Malaysia, and most of them support Zhang Guan. It's just that Ferrari fans are destined to be disappointed. In this race, Ferrari again had no results.
Heavy rain is a very troublesome thing for the award ceremony. Because the podiums of Formula One competitions are all built up high, if the audience is holding an umbrella, they won’t see the podium. If they don’t, they will be drowned.
The staff of the team is not so particular. According to the tradition of the award ceremony, the staff of the winning team will stand directly in front of the podium, closest to the driver. When the driver opens the champagne and sprays it to the audience, the staff of the team You can enjoy the aroma of champagne for the first time. For them, the moment sprayed by champagne is a reward for them and a thank you for their hard work.
A car, a driver, behind this is the countless hard work of the entire team. The people behind these drivers are not as dazzling as the drivers, not as eye-catching as the drivers, but they are every team. Indispensable, they are the people who deserve the glory of the champion most.

"China Power is still performing very well in this game, but what I have noticed is the strategy they use." On the TV screen, it was a former professional racer who was speaking to the race Do post-match reviews.
"Is there any difference in China Power's strategy? Please explain to us in detail." The host said immediately.
"Although the race was only a little more than halfway, some drivers have already entered four stops, and I paid special attention to it. The two cars of Force China only entered one stop. I want to know about motorsports Understand, how much time will it be three pit stops." The former professional racer paused, and then said: "In my opinion, the only pit stop for the China Force team was changed to a rain tire, it should be a regular one. Pit stop, because it was raining at that time, it is impossible for the car to run with dry tires, but then the choice of Ross Brown is the key to winning the Chinese force."
"You mean that after the track is dry, the two cars of China Power are still running with rain tires?" the host asked.
"Yes, Ross Brown deserves to be a master of strategy. He chose the most correct strategy for the race, and let the two cars continue to run for four or five more laps on the track. It is precisely these four or five laps that made them wait for the final. Heavy rain." The retired racing driver flashed his eyes, revealing a look of admiration.
In the racing festival, Ross Brown is a hall-level figure, and it is natural that the driver will worship him. Of course, he didn't know that it was Zhang Guan's decision not to change the tire.
...
"Yawn..." Ross Brown sneezed.
"It looks like someone is nagging you." Zhang Guan said with a smile.
"It was raining on the podium just now. Go back and drink more water." Rose Brown continued: "My old man is not as strong as your young people. Even God is on your side. "
"God is also on my side?" Zhang Guan asked inexplicably.
"Yes!" Rose Brown pointed to the sky, and then said: "It's raining, you can bet on it, is God on your side?" (Unfinished.) Mobile phone user Please browse for a better reading experience.
