How many people are not optimistic about Bai Hao's team?
Vito said: "Let me tell you, as a professional man who likes racing, I will tell you that I am not optimistic about your team. You are here just to have fun."
Bai Hao asked: "So, are you a football fan or a racing fan?"
"Both." Vito said firmly to Bai Hao: "Your team is definitely not good."
Bai Hao gave a high-five: "Great."
Corsi also said: "Bai, in any kind of competitive competition, the first thing is the people, and the second is the equipment. But F1 racing is different, it requires both the strength of the racing driver and the extraordinary performance of the car. This is a
This is a very serious sport, and as a friend I can tell you straight away that the approach you used at the Tour of Gaul will not work here."
Bai Hao said again: "That's great."
"Why, you would say it's great."
Bai Hao replied: "Because, I am Bai Hao. Generally speaking, for a man with an aura like me, the more people say I can't do it, then the miracle must be in my hands."
"You're kidding."
"For one hundred dollars, I will buy Michael and win the championship."
Vito said: "Whoever loses, please treat me after today's game. I will choose a very good restaurant fairly. To put it bluntly, whatever you like to eat, your treat is your priority."
Bai Hao laughed: "You choose, I have confidence."
Corsi said: "Okay, let me take a step back. If your team retires midway, then it will be a tie."
Entering the venue, you will definitely get a VIP seat.
Then there is an exquisite telescope on each seat.
After sitting down, someone sent me the latest data and intelligence.
After getting it, Vito said to Bai Hao: "During free practice in the morning, your team's average lap time was last."
Bai Hao said nothing and looked at the track silently.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, all cars can drive on the track. This is the first stage of qualifying. If it were not for Bai Hao's team to participate, Vito would normally not come to see the qualifying.
The first phase has begun.
Bai Hao then said: "Vito, Cosi, there is a secret. The weight of my racing car is eighty-three kilograms."
"What?"
Vito and Cosi were shocked.
Under what circumstances will the counterweight be added? That is when the car body is light enough and more counterweight must be added to reach the minimum weight limit for the car in the competition, then the counterweight will be added.
It’s not that more counterweight is better, but a car that can add more counterweight must have a light enough body.
Another advantage of having more counterweights is that the center of gravity of the car can be adjusted on different tracks. Compared with cars without counterweights, this is a huge advantage.
But, fifteen minutes later.
The last five cars in the first stage were pushed back to the garage. They had lost their qualifications and could only start in the last five places. The two cars of Baihao Team were ranked thirteenth and fourteenth respectively.
Bai Hao glanced at Vito: "Do you think the next car will have nothing to do with me?"
"I don't know, and I don't know anymore."
Vito also lost the confidence he had before.
After a five-minute rest, the second phase begins.
Bai Hao added: "My car looks ugly. Many professional reporters are complaining about the bracket and the nose of the car. But my car's nose has undergone ultra-high-speed wind tunnel testing, and the car can only travel more than 300 kilometers at most."
The wind tunnel I borrowed was used to test the speed of 800 kilometers per hour."
The time to talk is only fifteen minutes.
The second phase is over.
The two cars of Baihao Racing Team took the seventh and eighth positions.
After a five-minute break.
The third stage began. At this time, five more cars were not eligible to participate and were pushed back to the garage.
Bai Hao said: "Raise, I bet on the birth of a new record."
One minute, twenty seconds and ninety-eight.
When this value appeared on the big screen, Bai Hao stood up and prepared to leave.
new record.
It exceeded the original record by a full second and a half, and even surpassed the highest record in the competition here before Bai Hao's rebirth by almost half a second.
After canceling the turbocharger, it exceeded the top speed created by the previous Watada engine.
Not only that, there are several twists and turns.
One of the compound curves was very sharp in the second half and the speed had to be reduced to less than 140 kilometers per hour. However, Michael passed the curve at a speed of 145 kilometers per hour. The gap was only five kilometers.
Leave all racing cars behind.
On the track, F1 cars have to take off the steering wheel before the driver can come out.
After Michael came out, he put the steering wheel into his backpack, and the staff quickly pushed the car back to the garage.
Electronic gear shifting on the steering wheel.
Michael has already realized the benefits of this design, it is faster than a hand push rod.
In less than a tenth of a second, the advantage was in his hands.
On Bai Hao's side, after leaving the racing track, Vito couldn't wait to ask: "Bai Hao, how did you do it?"
Bai Hao didn't answer and got into the car directly.
After sitting in the car, Bai Haocai said: "Vito, I will tell you this secret at the beginning of the official competition."
"Tell me you are doubting me."
"Well, after the official competition starts."
Suffering, definitely suffering.
Back at the hotel, Vito and Cosi did not come to see Bai Hao. Instead, they sat in front of the TV and watched the video repeatedly.
In fact, it's not just them, but other teams as well.
A new fleet.
A completely invisible team, a retired old man who has never won a championship and has been away from the F1 track for four years, and a boy who is only 18 years old, how can they get the pole?
There is also a second starting position.
This is not scientific.
Professional people began to study it.
The video is a long shot, but you can also see many details.
"No, he changed gears. The posture of the car proves that he was changing gears, but I don't know how he changed gears."
"There is only one possibility. Pay attention to his hands."
Secrets cannot be kept for a long time. So what if you find out? You can go back and modify the car immediately.
Totally impossible.
No one can put electronic shifting in their car right away.
Maybe next year, but this year, absolutely impossible.
Next, the second secret was also discovered by professionals.
"For the Curva di Lesmos corner, you have to downgrade to fourth gear and slow down to 155 per hour. In the second half, you can only go below 140 per hour and down to third gear. Looking at his body posture, it matches
The weight must be the counterweight. Bai Hao used full carbon fiber for the bicycle during the Tour of Gaul, and he can do it with this racing car."
Professionals get it.
Counterweight.
Because this car is light enough, after understanding the track, we can have a more perfect weight distribution plan.
