Chapter 561 - Chapter 561

Bu Zelu stayed in Xiaotangshan's villa for a week, and then headed to Shanghai. Over there, it was very easy to get to the 'track' this time.

Bu Zelu said hello, didn't spend any money, found a car and ran around the track for two laps, then went to dinner with a group of bosses from the Sports Bureau.

It’s still my family’s strength, isn’t it just to use the track, and it’s also said here that even if the car is brought over, Bu Zelu can drive a few laps ahead of time.

At the dinner, several bigwigs were asking Bu Zelu if he could win a championship in Shanghai this time. You must know that Bu Zelu raised the national flag and sang the national anthem in F1, which is quite a show.

But Bu Zelu can't guarantee this. In the last game, he was really lucky and won a championship. This time it will not be so easy.

On April 4th, Bu Zelu's chariot was rebuilt and a new car was airlifted from Germany, because the repair time was too tight, and it was not easy to adjust.

Most of the car body is made of carbon fiber, which is basically scrapped once it hits, and the team will prepare several cars for the drivers every season.

Bu Zelu won the championship in the last game, and all the contract terms have been activated. Although there is no bonus for the race, the team will have a bonus.

Compared with other drivers, these bonuses are at the upper middle level, almost the same as Rosberg. After all, he is still a rookie, but his influence is relatively large.

Compared with Rosberg's various bonuses, each one is only 100 euros less, which can be regarded as the team's respect for Rosberg's contribution to the team this year.

"What's your situation, why did you cut your hair?" After arriving at the convoy, Rosberg was surprised when he saw Bu Zelu.

"Long hair is too troublesome. Besides, only handsome guys dare to cut this kind of crew cut. The guy's appearance is still very good." Bu Zelu said proudly.

"Which star did you invite this time!" Rosberg is very interested in Bu Zelu's social circle now, and very much hopes that this buddy invites a big Hollywood star, the most important thing is a female star.

"My master!" Bu Zelu hummed and put on a kung fu posture as he said.

"???" Rosberg rolled his eyes.

"Just kidding, it's just like your 'Godfather' over there!" Bu Zelu said gigglingly.

"Oh, this is your hometown. Indeed, it is very meaningful to invite your 'godfather'." Rosberg nodded.

Today was the first practice session, and since it was a new car, Bu Zelu drove the car off the track as soon as the race started.

Caterham's Ma Qinghua is also representing the race today, but Mercedes is a serious and official driver. For fans in the domestic circle, Bu Zelu won the championship in the last race, which has stimulated a large number of domestic car fans.

After running a few laps to test the data of the new car, Bu Zelu came back with the new car.

Today, Bu Zelu is also struggling with whether to use the fierce battle card. The last game affected many people.

If someone really had an accident, he would definitely bear a great deal of responsibility. Although others didn't know, he would definitely blame himself.

He can use the system to help himself, but if it affects others...

But this time the competition is in China, and he is under a lot of pressure. It is easy to say, but after winning the championship in the last race, the expectations of the whole country should not be too high for him this time.

This is also the reason why he does not accept various interviews, it is really impossible to say.

The rain battle has a great advantage for him. Combined with the last match in Malaysia, the rain will last for more than two hours.

According to the rain, all rain tires should be used throughout the course, and there is no troublesome tire replacement strategy at all, but there are also many unpredictable problems in rain battles.

The safety car is a great hidden danger, and all this depends on the reaction of the team's strategy team.

In the last stop, when the safety car came out for the last time, Bu Zelu could enter the maintenance area and put on dry tires.

But as the lead car, he didn't change, and the cars behind him didn't dare to change, they all stared at him, causing a bunch of people to change before it was too late.

It's useless to entangle now, Bu Zelu is still debugging various parameters of the new car, and will come back after a few laps.

Today, he is not doing results at all. Instead, when the first practice session is over, Rosberg directly ranked first with a time of 1:36.

As for Bu Zexie, his score ranked 18th, and the whole one-and-a-half hour free practice session was spent adjusting various data of the car.

At 14 o'clock in the afternoon, the second practice match started again.

Sauber's Gutierrez was the first to hit the track.Not long after, Marussia's Chilton's car stopped on the side of the track, and then he got off the car and returned to the pit lane early.

After 10 minutes, McLaren driver Perez rushed out of the track at Turn 10. The car made a 180-degree U-turn in the buffer zone and did not stop until the right rear wheel hit the tire wall.

However, the accident seemed to have little effect on the car, and Perez then drove the car back to the pit lane.On the same lap, Force India driver Sutil almost made the same mistake as Perez, and his car went off the track.

In the final stage of the practice session, most teams arrange drivers to use heavy fuel, so the improvement in single-lap performance is not obvious.Chilton, who had suspended practice just now due to a car problem, drove back on the track after the team repaired it, but after only one lap, his car stopped on the side of the track again, and he stepped off the car again.

It's not uncommon for two "quits" to happen during a practice session.

At the end of the second 90-minute practice session, Massa ranked first with a time of 1:35, followed by Raikkonen and Alonso. The fourth to tenth were: Rosberg, Webber, Button, Hamilton, Sutil, Di Resta and Vettel.

Bu Zelu's performance this time ranked 15th.

With the completion of the first day of the competition, Bu Zelu's performance hovered at the bottom, which made the media write a lot again.

However, Mercedes quickly responded, saying that the new car brought in by air has undergone a lot of adjustments, and Bu Zelu has adapted very well to the new car. The reason for the lack of results is that it has been testing various data of the car. .

It is much more convenient for Bu Zelu to stay in China. Instead of staying in a hotel, he lives in a villa that a friend lent him.

This villa is not the kind of Tomson's first product in the city center, but a set in the suburbs, but the advantage of this villa is that it is very close to the 'upper track'.

It takes only 10 minutes to drive there. You must know that most of the F1 tracks, including the Shanghai track, are in the suburbs of the city.

Except for street races like Singapore and Monaco.

The villa is not big, and the upper and lower floors are the standard configuration for a family of five. The interior decoration is also quite good, and it is basically not lived in.

As a celebrity, if you invest in piles of real estate, how can you live here? This villa is the one that Uncle Yu borrowed after saying hello.

If the villa in Hangzhou is not for sale, it is very convenient for Bu Zelu to come home, it is more than 2 hours on the highway.

It's the same journey as he went to the hotel in the city.

On the contrary, Uncle Yu found two hotels on the Shanghai side to live in, and went to watch the game when the main game was on.

Although Bu Zelu only invited Uncle Yu to come to the scene alone, there are piles of domestic stars who come to the scene. With a big star like Bu Zelu here, watching Bu Zelu's games is already a 'trend'.

Moreover, F1 itself is a very big show and platform. In this regard, F1's strategy is very mature. Everywhere it goes, it will hold a big party, and the guests are all local political and business celebrities.

The most famous one is Singapore, where there will be a celebrity concert after the race, where local and F1 invite world stars to perform.

This is what Ling Junjie told him, this buddy will perform on stage almost every year.

You must know that Bu Zelu came to the competition this time, but many celebrities dragged their connections and wanted to be invited by Bu Zelu to the guest area of ​​the maintenance area to watch the game.

It's just that Viniya is in charge of external activities, don't even think about female stars, they don't know male stars, and they don't lack money at home, so they don't care about these things.

After a day's rest, Bu Zelu is still adjusting his state. Competing at his own home is motivation, but the pressure is even greater. Winning the championship in the last competition is really "violent". embarrassing.

At 11:00 noon, Bu Zelu simply ate something, then sat in the racing car again and waited for the team's instructions to start the race.

This was the last practice session. The team did not ask Bu Zelu to achieve any results, but still wanted Bu Zelu to adjust various data of the new car.

An hour later, Bu Zelu ranked 11th in the lap time, so he left the maintenance area directly. Instead, he ate something and went to stay in the RV in the parking area.

Get ready for the afternoon qualifying session.

"Why is it not in a good state? Is it too much pressure?" Zaina asked while rubbing Bu Zelu's head.

"What are you thinking, new car debugging, that car has been debugged for several months, can it compare!" Bu Zelu rolled his eyes.

"I don't understand!" Zaina stuck out her tongue, "I don't care where you finish, as long as you can come back safely every time!"

"That's right, Brother Joye, I have prepared a special gift for you after tomorrow's game!" Xiaocha said with a smile while propping her chin on her stomach.

"What gift!" Bu Zelu felt relieved.

"I told you it's a special gift, I'll show you tomorrow night!" Xiaocha pushed Bu Zelu back and pouted.

"OK, OK! Then I can wait!"

At exactly 14:00 in the afternoon, Bu Zelu came to the pit of Mercedes again, and boarded the car after completing all the inspections.

This afternoon is the qualifying session. After two days of debugging, Buzelu needs to show results today. It doesn’t matter what the results of the first three free practice sessions are.
