711 Chapter 711 - One practice and two practice

Because F1 did not pay entertainment taxes to the Indian side, there was even rumors that this week's Indian Grand Prix might be canceled before the race, but the practice race was still going on as scheduled.

At the beginning of the first practice, the temperature was 27 degrees, and the surface temperature of the track was 33 degrees, but the visibility of the track was average.

Force India arranged for British driver Carrado to replace di Resta in this practice session.

In any case, as the most well-known athlete in Asia, Bu Zelu still gets a lot of close-up shots.

Today's Bu Zelu was very embarrassing to the third brother. Before the start of the race, Bu Zelu parked the car at the exit of the pit lane and ranked behind the Force India team.

It is the third car ready to play.

The drivers completed the system setting lap according to the plan. Among them, Ricciardo was delayed for a long time in the maintenance room due to a suspected gearbox failure before making his final appearance, and they all used harder intermediate tires.

Because the track is usually not used very much, the surface of the track is very dirty at the beginning.

And after running the system setting lap, Bu Zelu drove the car back to the maintenance area directly, anyway, Sleeping Arhat had already entered the track.

Bu Zelu didn't want to risk his life on an unfamiliar track, so he was going back to practice tonight.

After dawdling around on the track for a few laps, he handed over the car to the team's third driver, Brandon Hartley, to help the team collect information on the track and adjust various aspects of the car. data.

When the Bu Ze shoes in casual clothes appeared under the camera again, the audience who were familiar with Bu Ze shoes knew that this guy had clocked out of get off work again today.

It seems that this guy is 'fishing' again, but Bu Zelu's headache is that he will enter the Sleeping Arhat space twice in a row again tonight.

On the track, Alonso wore a helmet with 1571 printed on it today. This number happens to be the total number of points earned by the "head brother" in the F1 race.

Hamilton made a mistake in setting up the system and caused damage to the left front end plate of the left front wing, while Raikkonen's GPS system also failed.

Then after a brief empty field, Perez re-appeared and took the lead in making a timing lap with a score of 1:30. The Sauber team told the Mexicans that they needed to protect the left front tire.

Williams' Bottas, who came on the field later, went off the track at Turn 10, which once again showed that the road was still slippery at the time, and Vergni's car sparked due to the chassis rubbing the ground.

After Webber came out, he began to test the rear brake balance, Alonso suffered from gearbox failure, Rosberg informed the team by radio that there was an oversteer problem, and Massa complained that he encountered a slow car.

Fortunately, Bu Zelu was already eating ice cream leisurely at this time, and was bored watching the live broadcast.

Vettel quickly took the top spot with a fastest lap of 1:26, while also testing the front wing and front suspension settings.

After that Maldonado spun at Turn 6 and had room to make amends, and Perez expressed dissatisfaction with the braking situation, while Sutil's car balance was poor, especially understeer when exiting the corner.

After that, Hamilton went wide after a tire lock in Turn 1, and has not found the right rhythm.

Massa said the car lacked grip and felt heavily oversteered.

At the 15th turn, Calado made another mistake, locked his tires and sprinted off the track with white smoke.

In the end, Vettel secured the first place with a time of 1 minute, 26 seconds and 683 seconds. His teammate Webber was second 0.188 seconds behind. Mercedes' Rosberg and Brandon Hartley were third and No. 9 respectively.

Grosjean and Raikkonen of the Lotus F1 team grabbed fourth and No.5.

McLaren's second team Hamilton and Button occupy the sixth and seventh places, and Alonso, who only ran 6 laps, finally ranked 12th.

Bu Zelu had no results at all, he just ran the set lap of the competition.

As soon as the practice was over, Bu Zelu didn't even go to the restaurant today. Before the game ended, he went to the rest room to play games.

Anyway, if you go to the restaurant, you can see it but not eat it.

Two hours later, the second free practice session in the afternoon started nervously again.

Alonso, who encountered a gearbox failure in the first practice, did not replace it with a new one, but let the Ferrari team repair it in time.

During the second practice, the temperature was 30 degrees, the surface temperature of the track was 40 degrees, and the humidity dropped to 38%. However, it was still foggy in the paddock by visual inspection.

According to local media reports in India, the hearing originally scheduled for today has been postponed. In other words, the F1 Indian Grand Prix, which was once in danger of being suspended this weekend, will proceed normally.

After the green light of the pit lane came on, after a short pause, the drivers still used the harder tires of this weekend to run the timing lap directly.

Although Raikkonen quickly ascended to the top position, the slow motion showed that the left front tire of the KIMI car was seriously worn.

Soon Raikkonen ran out of the track with his tires locked at the last corner, and KIMI lost control at the end of the third turn shortly afterwards, and the balance of the Finnish Iceman’s car was suspected to be not adjusted to the best state .

Di Resta's team is playing at home today. No, the camera quickly gave him a close-up. When he was running the timing lap, he was blocked by Massa at the last corner. The fans booed Ferrari for a while.

Vettel quickly ran 1:27 and rushed to the top position again, but the German's KERS system quickly went on strike again.

Rosberg made mistakes at turns 15 and 16.

Another Force India driver, Sutil's car lacked traction exiting the corner.

However, Button suffered a serious lack of grip in high-speed corners, and Hamilton said that the understeer needed to be adjusted back to the station.

Although Rosberg beat Webber temporarily by 0.001 seconds to take the first place, he locked up at the last corner and rushed to the buffer zone, and expressed that he did not understand why the car understeered.

Perez also complained about the poor condition of the car, especially the brakes and steering.

With one hour left, Raikkonen was the first to put on the soft tyres, followed by Vettel.However, KIMI went off track again at Turn 10.

Bu Zelu was once again caught by the camera at the scene, and he can be regarded as coming out of the office, and he will still be sitting at the technical table in casual clothes.

It looks like I'm not going to have a practice match today, so I'm really clocking in to get off work.

Hulkenberg reported understeer in the middle and high-speed corners. The team asked whether to adjust the front nose, but Hulkenberg refused. Then Hulkenberg slammed the road shoulder at Turn 10 and deviated from the track.

At the end of the half-time, Infiniti Red Bull still took the first two places, and Mercedes still did not use the soft tire test at this time.

Hulkenberg also complained of understeer due to severe degradation of the front tyres.

Vettel's top position is difficult to shake, so he simply used the soft tire for a long-distance test, and soon the left front tire degraded, and the team told Vettel that everyone's situation was similar.

Mercedes will finally switch to the soft tire test, Rosberg is also the same, but fortunately he can persist.

Perez simply suggested that the team put on medium tires for the final stage of testing.

Maldonado's tire bolts flew out of the car near Turn 7, causing a puncture and the car could only be driven slowly to the side of the road to retire. Maldonado's accident triggered a yellow flag.

最终其他车队依然难以撼动英菲尼迪红牛的位置，维特尔成为唯一打开1分26秒大关，以1分25秒722的最快成绩再拔头筹。

His teammate Webber was 0.289 seconds behind and Grosjean was third.

Rosberg, Alonso, Massa, Raikkonen and Hamilton ranked fourth to eighth.Among them, Raikkonen is 0.910 seconds behind Vettel, and the gap remains within 1 second.

Brandon Hartley, who replaced Bu Zelu, played well today, and came to the ninth position, ranking ahead of Button with a score of 0.032.

In the last few races, McLaren has become stronger than Sauber.

After the second practice session, some drivers went to accept post-match interviews, while Bu Ze ran to the back of McLaren's maintenance area and called a few staff members to start the snooker case.

Anyway, the two buddies Bottas and Perez have already confirmed to participate in this afternoon's event. There is no competition. Playing with these two people is a way to pass the time. It is boring to win a beer from the staff. These two are drivers. Change it to red wine.

"Hey, are you here?" Bu Zelu prepared the pool table at McLaren's side, but it was Raikkonen who came first.

"Why no wine, didn't you win more than a dozen boxes yesterday?" Raikkonen looked around with curiosity.

What does playing pool have to do with my kimi? I'm here for a drink.

"You don't even look at how many people there are. One bottle per person will be gone. I only drank two bottles myself." Bu Zelu shrugged his shoulders, "Why don't we have a plate together?"

"Don't play!" Raikkonen curled his lips when he saw that there was no wine, but he didn't leave. Instead, he found a good place to sit and prepare to watch the battle.

Anyway, the competition is over, and it’s okay to drink a bottle or two. In the eyes of Finns, beer is not wine, but a drink made of grain.

This meeting is only a little over 15:30 in the afternoon. After drinking two bottles, I will finish my digestion when I wake up tomorrow morning.

"Why don't you live in a city hotel or an RV?" Raikkonen watched Bu Zelu play balls on him, practiced, and chatted casually, "Isn't this place very messy?"

Listening to Raikkonen's words, Bu Zelu was a little puzzled. Isn't it because of the chaos that the buddies live in the RV?

But on the other hand, it seems that what Raikkonen said is quite reasonable.

I rubbed it, but there was no rebuttal!

"I said you can do it recently. You are chasing points and chasing fiercely, and you are on the podium in a row." Bu Zelu turned his eyes and began to change the subject.

"Haha, let me tell you, the champagne at the station in Singapore is very good. In fact, I will tell you that the champagne at the German station is the best, but it is not the one we ran, but the Red Bull Ring. Emmm is the one in Austria. one stop."

"In addition, in fact, the champagne at the French station was also very good..."

Bu Zelu listened to Raikkonen and began to tell him about the taste of champagne at each stop. You must know that the champion champagne sponsored by each stop is of a different brand.Of course, it is impossible to bid before every stop. This kind of auction must have started a year ago.

F1 is not just a race, it's a business.
