Because it was a home game, the broadcast camera showed Zhang Guan without hesitation.
At this time, Zhang Guan used the first corner to overtake Fisichella, and then caught up with Sutil at the consecutive hairpin turns.
Sutil made defensive moves without hesitation, but Zhang Guan did not choose to overtake immediately. He was putting pressure on Sutil.
This is a typical Schumacher style, biting the opponent and constantly making the opponent feel fear. When the opponent is exhausted, it is also the moment when he is most sure to give the opponent a desperate blow.
Sutil clearly felt this pressure. He lowered the fourth gear to third gear, and then lowered the third gear to second gear. He needed to continuously reduce the speed to prevent himself from running off the track. However, he was very worried about himself. The slowdown will be caught by Zhang Guan behind him, so he still has to put in effort to defend and hold his own line.
Finally, Sutil passed through this continuous hairpin turn. By the time he passed Turn 4, his speed had dropped to 100 kilometers per hour.
Zhang Guan's cornering speed is obviously better. At a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, he can catch up with the car in front as long as he goes 5 kilometers per hour faster. The downforce provided by the double-layer diffuser gives Zhang Guan a speed advantage of 5 kilometers per hour when exiting corners.
"Nice cornering, catching up!" the commentator roared, Zhang Guan and Sutil were already neck and neck.
The audience at this corner immediately burst into deafening applause, but the two racing drivers certainly couldn't hear it as they were already accelerating forward.
There is a straight ahead, and the speed at the end of the straight can be close to 300 kilometers. However, Turn 6 at the end of the straight is one of the two super slow corners on this track. The driver has to quickly downgrade from sixth gear to second gear. Originally, The speed of nearly 300 kilometers per hour will drop to about 60 or 70 kilometers per hour when entering a corner.
Normally, a big brake would solve this problem, but now that Zhang Guan and Sutil are running neck and neck, this has become a test of the braking point. If you brake too early, the opponent will use the braking point in the suburbs to get ahead and take the lead in the turn. If you brake too late, you may run off the track if you go too fast tonight.
"I can definitely block Zhang Guan!" Sutil glanced at Zhang Guan from the side, but the water mist caused by the racing car made his vision blurry.
The ferocity in Sutil's heart also rose, and he decided to take a relatively late braking point and must rush in front of Zhang Guan. As a person who dared to stab the Renault boss with a wine bottle, although he cannot be said to be a desperado, he is still a person who is not afraid of getting hurt if he attacks.
Suddenly, the sight next to him became clear, and most of the water mist disappeared. Sutil suddenly became happy, because he knew that Zhang Guan had braked. It was precisely because Zhang Guan fell behind him that the water mist Most of it disappeared.
"Hmph, I won't lose to anyone in terms of courage!" Sutil thought to himself, he also stepped on the brakes and turned the steering wheel fiercely.
The gravitational acceleration generated by the turn made Sutil feel excited. He felt that he had left Zhang Guan behind. However, the next moment, his sight deviated from the runway.
"Oops, the car slipped!" Sutil turned the steering wheel in the other direction, hoping to stop the car from sliding sideways, but his actions were in vain. The car slid directly off the track and rushed into the maintenance area.
"This idiot, braking at such a late point would be fine in normal times, but now it's raining and the road is already slippery. It's weird to use such a late braking point and not run out of the runway when entering the corner! "Zhang Guan thought to himself, and then he stepped on the accelerator and rushed forward. In front of him was Toro Rosso's Bordai, who was also the next person he wanted to overtake.
Boldai is also a sponsored player. This year is his second season in Formula One. His performance level is average. For Zhang Guan, this is obviously a soft persimmon.
…
In the control room of the Force India team, Omi looked at the broadcast screen, his face was ashen.
"Why? Why is this happening? Why can't you block Zhang Guan! And he didn't even block one circle, oh, no! Half a circle! Fisichella and Sutil, are these two idiots?"
In Omi's mind, even if the two Force India drivers would eventually be overtaken by Zhang Guan, they could still hold off for a few laps. In Omi's original plan, Fisichella blocked Zhang Guan for four or five laps, and then Sutil could take this opportunity to run faster, and then let the speed block Zhang Guan for seven or eight laps. Half of the game was over. . Imagine being blocked at the end for half of the journey. Zhang Guan's performance at this stop must have been very disappointing.
However, in reality, Fisichella surrendered at the first corner, which was far from the four or five laps planned by Omi. Sutil was slightly better, at least holding on to the consecutive hairpin turns, but he rushed out of the track in the following turns, and his result dropped to last place.
The plan to block Zhang Guan for more than ten turns was implemented, but in the end, he only blocked Zhang Guan for six turns!
…
Toro Rosso's soft persimmon Boldai was unable to fight back against Zhang Guan and lost his position on the 10th lap. Zhang Guan's next target was Williams Racing's "road killer" Nakajima Kazuki. expensive.
Zhang Guan knows that Japanese drivers are all desperate guys. It would be better if they just risk their lives. The key is that their skills are still very poor. Being reckless and having poor skills is obviously the most prone to accidents. Sometimes if you give way to him on purpose, he might take the initiative to hit you. Therefore, facing Kazuki Nakajima, Zhang Guan did not use strong overtaking tactics. Instead, he continued to put pressure on Nakajima Kazuki.
Kazuki Nakajima obviously would not give up his position. He defended harder, but ended up retreating every time he made a move. This made Kazuki Nakajima feel that his defense was very effective.
"Haha, Zhang Guan is just like that. His car is faster than mine, but he can't overtake me at all! It seems that he will only lead from the pole position, but his overtaking skills are very average! And as a A Formula One driver has absolutely no courage to overtake. As long as I defend a little tougher, he will immediately retreat! The Chinese are indeed timid guys, even at their home stadium. You look like a coward! Next, I will let you Chinese people see the bravery and courage of our Yamato nation! Let you see our fearless warrior spirit!"
Zhang Guan's several retreats made Nakajima Kazuki feel more complacent and fearless. His defensive moves became larger and larger, and his defensive lines became more and more extreme. He felt that he was demonstrating the "fearless samurai spirit" to the entire audience.
