Zhang Guan was originally in the first place. In theory, as long as he didn't make any mistakes when he started, he could stand first. Especially when running smoothly through the first corner, the first position has been relatively stable.
Ross Brown breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Guan was participating in the race for the first time after all, so he was very worried about Zhang Guan's departure. At present, it seems that Zhang Guan's departure is very smooth and the route taken is also very good. There is no problem.
But Ross Brown quickly frowned again because Barrichello made a mistake in the start. He started very slowly, and when he entered the first corner, he was overtaken by Red Bull, BMW and Ferrari behind him.
"The gear is obviously slowed down!" Ross Brown shook his head helplessly. Most of the mistakes were caused by inattention. This was an old man who had fought for nearly two decades in Formula One. The driver is a very low-level mistake.
This is the first race of this year, and it is also the first race of this new team. Even a veteran like Barrichello felt great pressure and made mistakes that should not have been.
Ferrari's kinetic energy recovery system really gave them an advantage when they started. The two Ferraris, originally ranked seventh and ninth, rushed to fourth and fifth positions, respectively.
The first corner after the start is the most important one. Most of the starting accidents happen in this first corner. It is common for cars to collide in order to grab the first corner. Sometimes There was no accident at the first corner of the start, but it became a new thing.
Today, the accident happened at the first bend after the start. Australian local driver Red Bull Racing’s Weber crashed the front fixed wing, BMW Sauber’s Heyfield rear tires stepped on a debris, and then hit the Sudir of the Force India team. These cars have to be returned to maintenance Station replacement parts. The worst is McLaren's Kovalainen, whose front keel structure was damaged, which caused him to withdraw from the race directly.
This is just the first corner. Twenty cars will be eliminated, and there are a large number of cars in the pit waiting to change the wings and nose and tires...
As a leader, Zhang Guan felt the benefit of being ranked first. In front of the empty track, without a car, he could run at his own pace.
In motorsports, a driver does not have to chase the car in front or worry about being disturbed by other cars. It is obviously the happiest thing to race at his own pace throughout the race.
But behind Zhang Guan, there was a person who always wanted to attack Zhang Guan, that is Vettel of Red Bull Racing.
Vettel is German and Schumacher's hand-in-hand successor, and his resume is very similar to that of Schumacher. When he was young, he showed excellent racing talent and obtained good results in the low-level formula. The results are valued by the Formula One team, starting with the small team and then entering the big team through their excellent performance. And then set a record after another, such as the youngest driver to participate in the official race, the youngest driver to earn points, the oldest pole position winner, the youngest sub-station champion, etc. The future Vettel is even more From 2010 to 2013, he won four consecutive championships in Formula One, which is also second only to the five consecutive championships of Schumacher.
Although Vettel has not won the world championship in 2009, his technology is absolutely top-notch, and the Red Bull rb5 car he is driving is also a masterpiece of design master Newey, although there is no double-layer diffuser, and there is no kinetic energy recovery system. It uses Renault's engine, but it can rely on excellent aerodynamics to become a Ferrari.
Vettel is now behind Zhang Guan, and his goal is obviously to exceed Zhang Guan, in the first position.
Vettel's driving style is very Schumacher, with excellent technology, calm and sophisticated, calm and right cornering skills, his overtaking is not the kind of overbearing overtaking, he prefers to constantly put pressure on his opponents behind him. Force the opponent to make mistakes, then catch the opponent's mistakes and complete the transcendence.
So Vettel at this time is like a wolf hiding in the dark. He has been staring behind Zhang Guan, staring at his prey, trying to give Zhang Guan a fatal blow.
"My task now is to constantly put pressure on Zhang Guan to force him to make mistakes. As long as he can catch one of his mistakes, he can surpass the past and get the first place! This is the first level Zhang Zhang participated in. The Formula Car race, oh no! It should be the first race car! He would be very nervous. I seemed to be very nervous back then.
Vettel couldn’t help but think of his first participation in Formula One That tense situation in racing.
Vettel thought, and followed closely behind Zhang Guan. At this point, they had entered the third lap, accelerated all the way after the second turn, turned the third turn, and then passed the slightly larger radian No. 4 Bend, once again into a short straight.
"Huh? It seems that the distance between us has become larger?" Between Vettel's stunned gods, the two cars passed the turn five one after another, and then passed the speed measurement point No. 1.
The broadcasted subtitles show the difference in seconds between the cars. There is a gap of 1.225 seconds between Zhang Guan and Vettel, which is a relatively normal number on the third lap. At the speed of a Formula One car, 1.225 is within the range that can be surpassed, and if the gap is within 1 second, it is a relatively good attack range for the rear car.
The three corners of 6, 7, and 8 are all high-speed corners, then turn 9 and corner 10 are almost a 100-degree corner, and then when accelerated to turn 11, they will encounter a second speed measurement point.
The difference in speed between the cars again appeared on the subtitles, and the gap between Zhang Guan and Vettel became 1.557 seconds.
The car started to accelerate. The four corners of 13, 14, 15, and 16 were all close to right angles, but they were far away from each other. Basically, they decelerated immediately after the big foot throttle, and then slowed down again. After passing the 16th turn, you can reach the end with full throttle. The end point is the third speed point.
At this point, the gap between Zhang Guan and Vettel became 1.858 seconds.
"How do I feel that the gap between me and Zhang Guan has widened a lot?" Vettel visually inspected the distance to Zhang Guan in front, and he had already noticed this.
In corners or short straights, because the car is slowing down through corners, the driver is less sensitive to the distance between the cars, but once the straight is reached, the speed of the car is raised and the distance between each other is widened. At this time, the driver You can feel the gap more intuitively.
"Am I much slower than Zhang Guan?" Vettel thought of this, pressed the radio button, and asked the microphone: "How much slower was my last lap than Zhang Guan?"
At Red Bull’s command center, Newey hesitated looking at the numbers on the screen, and finally said: "Last lap, we were slower by more than 1.105 seconds..."
"What? A lap? I was one second slower than Zhang Guan!" Vettelton exclaimed. (To be continued.)
