210: Are You Trying To Make Me Laugh To Death With Your Racing Car Design?
Downforce is the most intuitive reflection of speed in an F1 car!
As long as the downforce is sufficient, the engine's horsepower can be fully utilized.
The contact area between the tire and the ground also expands, the higher the fitting efficiency, the higher the speed.
Red Bull Racing is designed based on this theory!
This design emphasizes the downforce of the car.
Its biggest advantage is that when you have enough tires, the speed will be terrifying!
Even faster than Mercedes and Ferrari!
It's very easy to overtake in an instant and hit hard on the outside of the curve!
But the overall lap speed is so ideal!
Once someone is guarding you, or your outside line is blocked, the damage to your tires will be devastating!
Therefore, you must kill the enemy with one strike!
In the 2021 season, the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix.
On the last lap, Verstopen was chasing Hamilton closely, and the gap was constantly narrowing.
It was because Verstappen overtook the car on the outside and was blocked by Hamilton.
The tire wear was huge, so he had no speed to launch the second attack, and finally lost the championship!
In short, this is a car that extremely tests the driver’s ability!
Therefore, only strong men like Verstappen and Bunta Sato can control it.
After replacing the aerodynamic kit, Chen Jingshu got into the cockpit again and rushed towards the track.
One light....two lights...
Five red lights are on!
Lights off!
In an instant, Chen Jingshu suddenly hit the accelerator, and the speedometer suddenly soared!
124km/h!...268km/h!...312km/h!...345km/h!.....
The car is like a mad cow, galloping across the track!
At the end of the straight road, follow the toe!
Cut into the center of the bend!
When cornering.
Chen Jingshu clearly felt that the car became irritable and restless due to the interference of the airflow!
"Get over here!"
Chen Jingshu roared!
This lap, he decided to use all his speed to corner!
As Chen Jingshu turned wildly, the Red Bull car headed straight for the apex of the corner!
However, at this time!
Due to severe wear and tear of the tire, the tread was flat and the left front wheel locked instantly!
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Red Bull Racing drew a dragon on the corner, dragging out a long black tire mark!
Then it flicked and stopped in the middle of the track.
"Damn it! After changing the kit, it's the same as if it hadn't been changed at all! I can't survive the top speed state!"
Chen Jingshu complained and then drove the car back to the track.
After one lap.
Chen Jingshu drove back to the p room again.
Horner frowned at this moment, he didn't know what went wrong.
"This is worse than the last aerodynamic kit! I think your racing car design is flawed!"
Chen Jingshu got off the car and did not hide his thoughts at all.
".........."
When the engineers present heard this, they all felt angry.
Is the racing car design flawed?!
That’s just saying there’s something wrong with their brains!
"Try two more times?!"
Horner couldn't help but said to Chen Jingshu.
"good!"
After saying that, Chen Jingshu got into the cockpit again.
“This time, I’ll give you a try with medium tires!”
"The hardness of medium tires is greater than that of soft tires, and the wear will be reduced a lot. The situation should improve!"
Horner pondered, and then ordered the tire changer to install medium tires on the car.
After changing the tire, Chen Jingshu rushed out again!
In this lap, Chen Jingshu ran very well in the corners.
However, due to the use of harder medium tires, the straight-line speed has decreased.
After a quick lap, cross the finish line!
01:05:064!
This lap was 0.7 seconds slower than before!
"I want to puke!"
Chen Jingshu was very depressed after learning about his lap time!
He was already running with all his strength! But the lap time was still not ideal!
I really don’t know if it’s because of myself or because of the car!
Follow the control variable method!
When Chen Jingshu drove a Ferrari, he was still doing well!
Does your crotch stretch when you drive Red Bull?
If this is your problem, there is no way you can justify it!
After driving the car into the P room again, Chen Jingshu got out of the car and couldn't bear it anymore.
"There must be something wrong with your car! I'm 100% sure!"
After saying that, Chen Jingshu picked up a can of Red Bull again and started drinking it.
"You said there's something wrong with the car, so how can Verstoppan drive a lap time when you can't?!"
"According to the control variables, this is not your cause?"
When everyone heard what he said, they immediately became furious!
"Forehead……………"
When Chen Jingshu heard what he said, he was speechless for a moment!
............
"Don't argue, this is definitely not Chen Jingshu's fault!"
"If there is a problem with Chen Jingshu, then all the riders will have to go to the hospital for examination!!
Horner spoke directly to stop everyone's emotions.
Chen Jingshu has won 8 consecutive championships and ranks first!
What if he has a problem?
So other drivers who can't win the championship are fine?
This obviously doesn’t make sense logically!
Moreover, Horner didn't want to fall out with Chen Jingshu because of this kind of thing, it was too bad.
"...."
Chen Jingshu was very moved when he heard what Horner said.
He understood that Horner was already very polite to him!
"Okay! I'll call and have my car engineer come and take a look?"
Chen Jingshu looked at Horner and asked tentatively.
0
Lisa is her own professional racing engineer and has a PhD in aerodynamics, so she should know why!
"Your Ferrari race engineer? Is that Miss Lisa?"
When Horner heard this, he frowned.
"Yes! She is very powerful!" Chen Jingshu has great confidence in Lisa's abilities!
Good guy!
Find a woman?!
Don't take us seriously at all!
After hearing Chen Jingshu's words, many engineers fell into anger again!
After hearing this, Horner fell into deep thought.
He knows this Lisa!
One of the best in the industry, the queen of racing design!
Just let Ferrari racing engineers solve Red Bull Racing's problems?!
Wouldn't it make people laugh if I said this?
"Okay, then just call her over and take a look!"
After weighing it for a long time, Horner finally agreed with Chen Jingshu's statement.
The current situation must be solved, at least the reason must be understood!
Even after testing so many laps, the reason for the slow lap speed has not yet been found.
It’s even more hilarious!
Three hours later, Lisa arrived at the Red Bull Ring.
However, when she first saw the aerodynamic kit of the Red Bull Racing car, she immediately laughed!
Lisa laughed so hard that she kept saying "goose"...
"This...whose idiot designed this?! It's so funny!"
"This racing car design is outrageous just by you!"
"Haha! Ah goose~goose~goose~goose~goose~"
Everyone: "!! Six!".
