Chapter 538 Chapter 538-Second Practice Match-2
And these things can be operated on the steering wheel, otherwise, what are the so many buttons on the F1 car for?

It's really just a decoration. All the buttons on it can adjust the performance of the entire car. Before the F1 modification, you could even adjust the angle of the splitter to adjust the downforce of the entire car.

In fact, these are all created by Williams. At the craziest time, the Williams team can even remotely adjust the steering shaft and shock absorption when cornering.

Let the car corner with the most perfect posture.

Senna has lost to Williams' technical team before.

After that, F1 has made a lot of rule changes. Of course, the rules of F1 are changing every year, and there is no pause.

The track engineer can teach Bu Zelu how to adjust the car, but only in private, if it is in a race, unless there is a huge problem with the car, he can teach the driver to adjust.

For example, the engine stalls, the gear is stuck, in such dangerous situations, the track engineer can direct the driver in TR.

But the usual TR communication can only send some basic information to the drivers, even chatting, but it cannot involve teaching the drivers to drive.

But like 'your left front wing is off by 0.5! '

Then if the driver can adjust the car, he will adjust it through the buttons on the steering wheel to adjust this error, all of which are allowed.

To put it simply, it can report the status of the car, but it cannot teach the driver which button to press to make adjustments.

With the adjustment of the car, Bu Zelu drove out of the maintenance area again, but this time the track situation was not so good.

"Joye, the distance between you and the car in front is 1.5 seconds, pay attention to your distance!" Bayer communicated with Bu Zelu in TR.

"How much is the difference in our speed?" Bu Zelu asked directly.

"You are 1.8 seconds faster than him, you can try to overtake at Turn 12!" Bayer continued.

"Roger that!"

Only 5 seconds later, Buze shoes were put on. Because of the wake of the car in front, he probed directly, and pulled them out before the 12th turn. The position was stuck, and the outside line passed the past.

Professional drivers are not wild drivers. When the opponent occupies the parking space, they will consciously give up their position, otherwise the result will be a car collision.

Professional racing drivers come to race, not to gamble.

Although it was just a simple overtaking, Bu Zelu breathed a sigh of relief, but the tire worker in the pit cheered again.

Come on, this is free practice, not a race.

But this is a relatively formal overtaking in actual combat.

'Yo, isn't this Xiao Hei's car? After seeing the number on the car logo from the rearview mirror, Bu Zelu stepped on the accelerator and opened the gap directly.

McLaren's team was very competitive last year, but it's not as good as Mercedes' rocket car this year. The engine alone can't do it.

'My buddy seems to have robbed him of his position! Bu Zelu muttered in his heart, and drove seriously again.

'The system doesn't have a specific value, how long can this flick of the finger last? 'Bu Zelu has been driving the best route instructions with his supernatural powers.

He is very clear that this thing consumes 'spiritual power', but mental power is inherently mysterious, Bu Zelu doesn't know at all, if it can last for two hours, it will be fine.

'Looking back, I still need to practice more with Viniya and the others. The Ascension Edition of Neijing should be an overall improvement! '

'I remember that I could run Dakar for 3-4 hours that year. '

It's been so long since I've used it, I forgot about it.

"joye, box, box, change tires!" Bayer said again in TR.

"Roger that!"

You must know that there are a total of 16 corners in the entire Albert track, and the car has to brake continuously, which consumes a lot of slick tires.

This is the case with F1, without the 'refueling tactics', all cars have put their goals on 'tire attenuation'.

The attenuation of the tire can be directly reflected in the speed. In a racing car, after the rubber of the tire is worn off, its grip will weaken.

Weakness of grip In a high-speed race like F1, it is not only a dangerous situation, but also a speed attenuation. After all, without grip, you can’t control cornering at all, so you can only slow down to ensure cornering.

Now that you've slowed down, why don't you wait for others to catch up?

Tire workers have been a very important job since the creation of the F1 race.

This is not the first time Bu Zelu has cooperated with these dozen brothers, and they have been practicing before today.

As the "Mr. Lollipop" in front of the car raised the plastic lever, Bu Zelu stepped on the accelerator and set off again.

There are many tire workers in F1, and the division of labor is different.

There are 21 tire workers in Buzelu.

12 technicians are responsible for changing tires, three for each wheel, one is responsible for removing and locking screws with a pneumatic wrench, one is a tire remover, one is a tire installer, and one is a safety officer.

One is in charge of operating the front jack.

One is in charge of operating the rear jack.

One is in charge of operating the special jack when the car's nose is damaged and must be replaced.

One responsible for checking the high pressure cylinders required for the pneumatic return device of the engine valves, which must be replenished with high pressure air if necessary.

One is on standby with a fire extinguisher.

A man called "Mr. Lollipop" is responsible for holding the indicator board with "Brakes" (brakes) and "Gear" (in gear). When the sign is raised, it means that the car can leave the pit lane.And he was the only one of the 22 equipped with a wireless phone for talking to the drivers. (Unlike the Ferrari, "Mr. Lollipop" went to press the button.)
Finally, there is one who is responsible for wiping the driver's helmet.

If the nose is damaged and needs to be replaced, then there are 3 more people, one to remove the damaged nose, one to replace the new one, and one to take over the damaged nose so that the car does not hinder the passing of the car. Speed ​​up so that 21 people are needed for the special pit stop.

And this is still the present, if it was the case of melee refueling in the past, there would still be 3 more people added.

One holds the fuel gun, usually the strongest mechanic on the team.

An assistant held the tubing.

One is in charge of the tanker.

However, the restructuring of the FIA ​​has also laid off these three buddies. Otherwise, the tire workers in the maintenance area of ​​a driver would have to be equipped with at least 25 people.

After entering the track again, Bao Zelu's performance became more and more stable. Whether it was overtaking or making the car, he no longer felt as panicked as he did in the morning.

No, seeing the blue flag waving on the side of the track, a touch of red appeared in Bu Zelu's rearview mirror.

'MMP, I can't be a Ferrari driver, I'll buy one myself later! Bu Zelu murmured in his heart, giving way to the traffic lane to give way to Brother Tou.

'Buy a hair, even if you buy it, you can't open it! ' Bu Zelu looked overtaken by Alonso, returned to the traffic lane and continued driving.

According to the Mercedes agreement, he will not be able to drive any car other than Mercedes this year. Correspondingly, Mercedes will also provide him with all daily vehicles.

But soon, after two laps, Bu Zelu caught up with Brother Tou again. It wasn't that he became faster, but that Brother Tou slowed down.

There were a lot of slow cars ahead, but Bu Zelu used the slow cars to bite Alonso's wake.

Obviously he was caught in the trap, and now he has directly surpassed the past.

Anyway, it's a practice match, there is no real ring.

This time Alonso was not happy, and directly started to fight with Bu Zelu.

'NM, it's just a practice match, is this necessary? "Bu Zelu also lost his temper. At the beginning, he brought 1 million sponsorships to Ferrari, but they didn't even give him a chance to test.

And later, after Force India got the road test, he found Ferrari again with the results, but they still didn't dump him.

The store is a big bully.

But the Legalists abused me thousands of times, and I treat the Legalists like first love!

Who let people call Ferrari!
Which man in this world can refuse Ferrari?
"Joye, get out of the track, get out of the track, this is a practice match!" TR's news came quickly from the headset.

"Received!" Although Bu Zelu was upset, he still got out of the track.

However, just as he gave way to the track, he saw another car catching up in the rearview mirror, with a blue and white paint job and '1' written clearly on it.

'Yes, we have to let it go! 'Bu Zelu didn't need TR notification this time, but slowed down some speed to let Vettel pass, and even saw Vettel give him a thumbs up.

'A group of dogs B, waiting for the race! Bu Zelu is very clear that Mercedes is running in a closed position today, and does not want to expose all the performance of this year's new car prematurely.

On the other hand, Bu Zelu also knew that he was still a novice, and the people in the maintenance area were afraid that he would crash the car.

After letting go, Bu Zelu continued to run behind the two of them.

It was another two laps when Bu Zelu heard the news from TR and asked him to return to the maintenance area to debug the car again.

After this debugging, Bu Zelu ran on the track for another 3 laps to collect data, and the second practice session ended.

Bu Zelu's performance is not bad, ranking 13th in lap speed, which is much better than the 22nd in the morning, but his teammates are very strong, directly ranked fifth.

And he was 2.8 seconds slower than Rosberg's fastest lap time.

In less than 3 seconds, he lost 8 positions, and he was 4.1 seconds faster than the last second.

But everyone's speed has entered within 1 minute.

This is a basic operation for others, but for Bu Zelu, it is a victory, and it is very close to the scoring area.

In the F1 competition, there are points for the top ten. The points of each sub-station are accumulated until the last game, and there will be a championship.

It is similar to tennis, but the points of F1 and tennis are much worse.

The points for each game range from 25 points to 1 point.No game is special.

So if you want to only play in the open like tennis, as long as you win the championship, you can basically be stable in the top ten.

The overall champion of F1 is the real champion, and the champion of the sub-race is not as influential as the champion of the open race.

But if you count the F1 races in detail, even if you want to get a point, it is the dream of countless drivers.

Mercedes' expectation for Bu Zelu this year is to gain points and strive to be on the podium.

At 15:00, today's two practice matches are completely over.

Bu Zelu refused the interview, and followed the team directly to the caravan area of ​​the parking lot for a meeting and summary.

FIA stipulates that whether it is a practice match, a qualifying match or even a race, the top ten must cooperate with media interviews.

Bu Zelu is the 13th. Of course, the FIA ​​really wants Bu Zelu to be interviewed. After all, he is now the topic of "in the paddock".

　It is estimated that there are more buddies who watch tennis than F1. They are all niche sports competitions, tennis, F1, Tour de France, Dakar, Isle of Man TT.You should have heard of this kind of competition, haven’t you seen it, buddy, this is not a popular science competition, in fact, like everyone, I watch it occasionally, and more I check some online information, many places may not have these competitions' Professional fans are so strict, just watch and have fun.
