Chapter 621 621. Gods of Cars
Compared to the shock of the old drunkard and Brother Niu, Xu Jia and Le Zai were relatively calm.

Because the old drunkards belong to the standard older generation of Chinese drivers, they have not really been exposed to the world's top automobile events and racing teams, let alone F1, which has the most precise alignment and driver control.

But Xu Jia is different. Even though he was only a test driver, he still received professional training as an F1 driver. So this kind of picture is not unfamiliar to Xu Jia, and it even has a familiar and comfortable feeling.

At least he didn't have to think about the details and flaws in the control after training every day. He had to know that many things were clear to the observers, and Xu Jia might not be able to find problems every time.

Data analysts can use data charts to help Xu Jia intuitively find his own problems, which means that future training results will be more effective with half the effort.

And having Genji Ito do post-race data collection and analysis is equivalent to liberating Le Zai. He can focus more on car tuning and matching after feedback, so that Subaru GE can perform as well as possible in the face of any complex road conditions. Add all the strength.

In addition, the addition of Owens has also been of great help to the team, greatly reducing the car failure rate and maintenance time.

In fact, in the later stages of high-intensity training, the entire team was a little overwhelmed, and the car failure rate skyrocketed. Brother Niu alone can no longer perform rapid maintenance. In many cases, Xu Jia and Li Wenfeng both have to serve as maintenance technicians.

After all, this situation is not a long-term solution, even in training. How can we ensure that all mechanical faults of the car are resolved during the race against time in the official competition?

The arrival of Evans is equivalent to solving this hidden danger, and his Le Mans-level racing experience also gave Lezi a lot of help in chassis adjustment.

You must know that among the three major parts of a car, the one with the least obvious perception but the most difficult to do well is the adjustment of the chassis. In addition to technical requirements, this also requires the accumulation of rich experience and data to achieve this.

For many domestically produced cars in later generations, many people feel that the ride quality is not good or the chassis is loose as soon as they get started. In fact, they are inexperienced in chassis tuning.

For racing cars, the chassis determines the upper limit of cornering speed. If it is just a little bit different, then you will be slower than your opponent's limit in every corner!
Le Zai naturally has nothing to say in terms of theoretical knowledge, but his shortcoming is that after graduation, he did not go to a world-class car company or racing team for further study, but followed Qin Hao to an underground racing team, which caused him to lose a lot of racing R&D and tuning. Learning opportunities above.

Therefore, when it comes to tuning the Subaru GE chassis, Lezai can only follow the standard process to ensure that it does not become a hindrance, but cannot squeeze the absolute limit. The arrival of Evans is equivalent to solving this problem.

This is why Xu Jia said that in professional racing, as you reach the top level, it is no longer a battle for the driver alone, but a competition for the strength of the entire racing team.

Because even if only two professional members join, it can be said to be a qualitative change in improving the overall strength of the team!

In the next two days, Xu Jia was still at the Guangshen base, running in with Evans and Genji Ito. The most obvious benefit is that his single lap speed has increased by more than 1 second from 31 minute and 1 seconds before going to Hong Kong Island, and he ran a lap time of 1 minute, 30 seconds and 43 seconds!
Any track lap record is more difficult to improve as you go to the back, just like the 100-meter dash. Each breakthrough may only change by a few tenths of a second.

Xu Jia's improvement can no longer be described as rapid, it is simply regarded as a miracle!

Looking at the latest time on the stopwatch, the expression on the old drunkard's face was very complicated. He didn't know whether to be excited or sighing.

The old drunk thinks that the waves behind push the waves ahead. With the talent and hard work Xu Jia has shown, he is destined to far surpass the older generation of drivers like them and have the ability to challenge the world's strongest.

But Xu Lang never thought that this day would come so fast, so fast that even he would have to look up to Xu Jia.

Not to mention old drunkards, even top team technicians like Evans and Genji Ito felt incredulous when faced with Xu's crazy improvement in acceleration.

Especially Evans. To be honest, he doesn't think highly of Chinese drivers. When it comes to racial discrimination, it's not that far. It's more of the mentality of experts who look down on "rookies".

If he didn't have a particularly good relationship with Cheng Long, and the other party gave him too much, he would not be willing to become a team member of a Chinese rally driver no matter what. That's why Evans showed such indifference when they met for the first time.

But the racing talent and strength Xu Jia showed in the past two days made Evans wonder if the other person was a Chinese driver?
He has seen too many top newcomers in Europe, and there are also many so-called "genius drivers". And Xu Jia's current strength and performance, even in Europe, are not inferior to those European rookies who are "genius drivers"!
Even Evans believes that if Xu Jia can still perform as stably as he is now in an unfamiliar track environment, then he no longer needs to participate in the Asia-Pacific Rally Championship, but can directly participate in the European Rally Championship. That is the world Enter the strongest intercontinental competition! However, Evans and Genji Ito will naturally not say these things. Training is one thing. If you want to get their real recognition, you need to see real results!
After the short running-in period, the members of the Dragon Team went to Xishuangbanna in Yunnan Province. Apart from NSQD, this is one of the few places on the mainland that can simulate the Malai Xidu climate in winter.

Compared with ordinary mud, the road conditions in the rainforest will be worse, and they will also experience high temperature and humidity, which will also put a heavy load on the body. Xu Jia's simulation training in Dian Province can be said to have encountered unprecedented challenges.

But for a rally driver, since you can't change the track environment, the only thing you can do is to adapt and conquer it!
Therefore, during the rally training in Yunnan Province for more than half a month, Xu Jia experienced "inhuman" extreme pressure. The dehydration caused by high temperature and humidity for a long time almost made him somewhat deformed.

You must know that in addition to normal tensile training, Xu Jia also has high-intensity physical training every day. Even the two foreign members can't stand this abnormal level.

They knew that China has always been hard-working and capable of bearing hardships, but they did not expect that Xu Jia could work hard to this extent. When this kind of Chinese driver has the talent of a "genius driver" and also has efforts that others cannot achieve, what will be the result?
The answer is invincible!
Even Evans, who initially looked down on Xu Jia, was vaguely looking forward to the event. The world would witness the rise of a talented Chinese driver!

More than half a month later, the team members left Dian Province and headed north in the purchased event transport vehicle and logistics support vehicle.

However, this time the destination of the team is not the Northeast, which is already snowing heavily, and plans to conduct snow training, but Yanjing, the capital of China!
Because Xu Jia has passed the registration for the RCO National Cup, he will join fifteen other top domestic drivers in a competition for the Chinese Car King. The top two winners will become national team drivers and represent China in the competition!
In the driver list, Xu Jia saw Han Han's name. He was not surprised, because as the first double champion in domestic history, Han Han was undoubtedly a candidate for the national team driver.

It's just that Dong Hebin's name did not appear in this list, and he was replaced by himself.

You must know that in 09 in history, Dong Hebin defeated Han Han to win the title of Chinese Car King and became the number one driver of the national team. Now he is not participating. Has history really changed?
Seeing the shock on Xu Jia's face, the old drunkard asked.

"Any questions?"

"Uncle Xu, is there no Dong Hebin among the Chinese drivers in this class?"

"Are you talking about the Dutch driver? He seems to be participating in the winter training of the Renault F1 team, so he gave up the ROC Nations Cup."

is it?

Xu Jia's mind was full of doubts. Is this a historical change or a coincidence?

To be honest, Xu Jiating is looking forward to Dong Hebin participating because he really wants to experience a duel with the strongest Chinese driver at present.

After all, there is no first place in Wen and no second place in Wu. Without Dong Hebin's participation, the title of China's Car King will lose a lot of color.

But when Xu Jia turned to the next page of the list of participating drivers and the catalog of foreign participating drivers, he forgot everything before. Even Xu Jia felt that after seeing these names, his hands shook subconsciously due to emotional fluctuations!
Because the participating drivers on this list are too terrifying. If it weren't for the ROC Nations Cup, it's hard to imagine that they would participate in the same event.

German team: Former F1 Ferrari driver and 7-time F1 championship winner-Michael Schumacher!
F1 Red Bull Racing current driver-Sebastian Vettel! (Future four-time F1 champion)
British team: F1 Brown GP team driver, 09 F1 world champion - Jenson Button.

BMW Racing driver, 05-07 World Touring Car Championship champion - Andy Priaux!

British second team: F1 McLaren driver, 08 F1 world champion - Lewis Hamilton! (Future six-time F1 champion)
F1 Red Bull Racing driver, 01 F1 world runner-up - David Coulthard!
French team: WRC Citroën driver and 6-time WRC world champion-Sébastien Loeb! (Future nine-time WRC champion)
SEAT team driver, 08 World Touring Car Championship champion - Ivan Muller!
……

Just looking at the names of the previous teams, every one of them is a super driver who shocked the world. Let alone Xu Jia in this life, even in his previous life he could only look up to this group of racing gods.

At this moment, Xu Jia is really lucky that he chose to participate in this ROC Nations Cup, so that he, a mere mortal, can join the battle of the gods in the racing world!
