Chapter 1578 : The rookie's counterattack!

Just as everyone was anxious to stomp their feet for Li Fanyu's inhumanity and seemingly a very low winning rate, F1's official gambling information has been updated on the live broadcast screen.

In an instant, the commentator shouted at the top of his lungs in an excited tone of his wife running away from others.

"Oh my God! Friends, the latest gambling information has just been updated. The two drivers of Williams team have accumulated 11 million pounds and 10.7 million pounds respectively! Oh my God, this must be a huge fortune just now! You know, as of five minutes ago, the favorite to win the championship on this site, and the total investment of Hamilton of Mercedes-Benz team is only 8 million pounds!"

"Oh? Ah! Okay, friends, we have just obtained the confirmation information. Mr. Li Fanyu, a new shareholder of Williams team, purchased two drivers of his team's team's betting for £1,010 each. Everyone knows that our betting will draw two percent of each race to donate to the Red Cross for donations to children in poor areas of the world. The official betting expressed his gratitude to Mr. Li Fanyu for his generous donation and sincerely hopes that Williams team will achieve good results in this race!"

Seeing that the official had given the confirmation information, Cheng Ke let out a long sigh and lowered his head deeply.

"It's over, losing for these 20 million is a trivial matter. Now everyone knows that you have bought gambling. If you lose it badly, it will be embarrassing."

Lou Lu and Chen Chen were completely shocked. Although the two people who had just grown up are official drivers of FE, they still couldn't understand them with their thinking. What is the concept of using their three-year salary to buy two lottery tickets?

I can only say... my boss is too rich.

After hearing the comments, the entire field was in full swing, but there were more whistles and boos. It can be seen that people are really not optimistic about Williams' team's game.

It was at this moment that the commentator brought everyone's attention back to the game.

After about five minutes of preparation, the competition began as the indicator light at the departure point went out and then lit up again!

Silverstone is a track that many F1 drivers are more familiar with. For many drivers headquartered in the UK, they are even more familiar with it. Many teams will rent Silverstone for racing tests.

After the indicator lights on, more than 20 racing cars made a roar and rushed out of the starting point.

Because it is a practice competition, the competition is more about the reaction and lap speed of tires during the current track, current training, current temperature. New kits developed by the factory include power, aerodynamic kits, mechanical kits, etc., which may even be feasibility tests.

So everyone was not in a hurry to compete for the position, they were all slowly warming the tires.

In the No. 1 car of Mercedes-Benz, Hamilton is planning his itinerary.

The straight section at the starting point of the track is not long, but it can accelerate from the last Woodcote corner, and until the bottom of the road, it can reach a high speed of 305km/h on average, and then retreat to 5 gear to pass through the first Copse corner at an average speed of 240km/h;

This track is very comprehensive in testing the overall performance of the car.

So after the hot tires were finished, Hamilton accelerated immediately, trying to rush to the leading position and test the acceleration performance of the car before copse corners.

In front of him is the No. 2 of Williams Racing Team. The driver was Armondro, who had just been promoted from F3000 this season and got a super driver's license.

Hamilton has used his strength to prove who is the king on the track, so he doesn't care about a newcomer who has just emerged.

Directly adjust the front of the car, and accelerate the number of pull-ups and rotations to exceed Armundro.

But he didn't know that at this time, Armondro had already regarded him as the target of the practice match.

Seeing Hamilton suddenly accelerated behind him, Armondro also stepped on the accelerator to the floor and quickly raised the speed of the car; in just a moment, the car speed surged from 185KM to 255KM!

Hamilton, who was accelerating with all his might, felt that the car ahead suddenly stayed away from him, which made him lose his mind for a moment;

You know, he accelerated at full speed just now. According to the usual track performance of Mercedes-Benz engine, even if he cannot surpass Williams racing cars that used the previous generation Mercedes-Benz engine in a short period of time, he will definitely not be able to get such a big distance when he is taken advantage of!

With such a loss of energy, the racing car had already reached the front line of the copse curve. During this period, the two racing cars surpassed a total of seven racing cars, and had already reached the forefront.

At this time, Hamilton was surprised to find that his speed had reached 300KM, and it was still quite a short distance from the car in front!

“FK!”

He cursed softly and pulled the number of rotations up again. When he saw the car in front of him enter the brake point, the taillights flashed and stopped accelerating.

The two cars entered the corner at a speed of nearly 200KM.

After the copse curve, there is a short acceleration section.

Hamilton stared at the car in front, and a huge doubt was almost arose in his heart.

And those who have the same doubts as him are the technical mentors of the Mercedes-Benz team.

Tactical Director McGray had noticed the contest between Armundro and Hamilton. Seeing his leading drivers get at a disadvantage in this small competition, he keenly felt that Williams' racing car had changed a lot compared to the first half of the season.

"Lewis, accelerate at full speed on the next acceleration section, and see the speed of the car ahead!"

"Received!" Hamilton responded in a muffled voice, and he thought so. Testing his own racing in the practice race is the core, but observing the opponent's performance is equally important to collect information for the qualifying and the main race.

The short corner quickly passed, and at the moment when he ran out of the corner, Hamilton rushed forward with skillful operation and all-out acceleration without any delay!

The huge engine sounded throughout the field, which also alarmed Armondro in the car in front.

Because his car speed was a little high when entering the corner, the amount of fuel was reduced during the cornering process. At this time, the car's speed was not high. When he left the corner, his posture was a little slow.

Because before the practice race, the team gave itself the instructions not to drive violently, and to test the fit between engine and racing tuning and the temperature and road conditions of the Silverstone track, Armundro was a little hesitant after leaving the corner.

It was this gap that allowed Hamilton behind him to seize the opportunity.

With fast fighting and slow fighting, Hamilton quickly chased the positions of the two cars together!

Just as he was hesitating whether to continue fighting with Hamilton or follow the convoy's tactics, his headset rang out.

The team technical director gave the highest instructions there, "Go ahead of Hamilton, stay ahead all the way, and see the limits of the car!"

The next moment, a moment that Hamilton would never forget for his life, happened.

A scene that shocked the audience and people related to various teams to their chins happened.

The No. 2 car of Williams Team suddenly accelerated with a slow speed after the corner and no advantage in the rotation speed. With the roar of the engine, it reversed in an instant, steadily surpassing Hamilton's car that had just won a championship for the team last season!

At this moment...
Chapter completed!
