He rode a motorcycle and crashed the plane.

Chapter 627 627. Drivers enter
No one knows the answer to the old drunkard's question, just like the drivers on the field can't figure out why the rally field is so strong for newcomers.

But the test run continued, but when Xu Jia showed his strength, no one would think that this kid was young and frivolous anymore, but silently accepted his remarks from the previous reporter's question.

Indeed, with Xu Jia’s current performance, he can be drawn against any driver, and there is definitely a possibility of winning!
This is competitive sports, only food is the original sin, and the strong can take it all!

Even if a god is like Senna, if you ask him according to the standards of a moral model, he is not considered a good thing.

Abandoning his wife and son for racing, fighting within the team for the identity of the number one driver, crashing his opponent on the track in revenge for the final...

Compared with these actions, being arrogant and arrogant is nothing, they are still just talking.

And having said that, Xu Jia is just a bit more confident in his speech based on his status as a rookie. He is not as "humble" as regular domestic rookie athletes. Even words like arrogance and arrogance must be discounted!
At the end of the two-hour test run, Xu Jia drove all five types of racing cars. Because when the draw comes, not only will the opponent be random, but also the type of car will be random. Otherwise, track players will definitely choose a touring car, and rally drivers will also choose their most advantageous off-road vehicle.

The ROC Nations Cup is not a points-based professional event. What it wins is more of an honorary title than a representation of the true strength.

But if you can win the championship, at least it means you are not a weakling, just like Dong Hebin, the strongest driver on the Chinese team in history, who was crushed out in the first round of the singles event.

This is a gap in strength. Even in "entertainment" events, you can't entertain the world's top professional drivers.

Xu Jia still had a hard time in his heart. He never thought that he could defeat F1 world champions such as Schumacher and Hamilton and win the title of "King of Kings" in the ROC Nations Cup.

But at least on your own home court, facing tens of thousands of spectators who are looking forward to the victory of the Chinese driver, just don’t miss the first round.

Back at the hotel where they were staying, neither Xu Jia nor the old drunkard told the team members what happened during the test drive.

Maybe now even the old drunkard's goal is not to set Xu Jia at the domestic driver level, but to face the strongest opponent in the world, so there is nothing to show off.

After Xu Jia insisted on finishing the physical training, he went straight to bed. It was true that his schedule was a bit too busy during this period and he was too tired.

……

November 2nd is the official start time of the ROC Nations Cup. Today’s Yanjing International Airport can be said to be very lively. Countless reporters and racing enthusiasts are blocking the airport pick-up area, wanting to meet them as soon as possible. to the driver idol that he hopes for.

Among the foreign drivers arriving, the most eye-catching one is undoubtedly the seven-time F1 champion Michael Schumacher, who stands at the pinnacle of the car world.

In the Brazilian Grand Prix, the final match of the 2006 F1 season, Schumacher announced his retirement. From then on, the greatest driver in F1 history began to end his career.

You must know that Schumacher in 06 did not have no championship competitiveness like many drivers at the end of their careers. On the contrary, he has been extremely anxious about points with Alonso throughout the season. If it hadn't been for a crash in the penultimate Japanese Grand Prix, there might have been an eight-time champion in F1 history.

Therefore, Schumacher's retirement left regrets in the hearts of many fans. Most people even believed that he was still the strongest driver in the world and would still be the champion when he returned!
But the reality was not what the fans expected. News of Schumacher's comeback came out every year after 06, but the man wearing the red Ferrari racing suit was nowhere to be seen on the track.

09 can be said to be the year that gives fans the most hope. Ferrari's official website announced that Schumacher will replace Felipe Massa who suffered a head injury in the remaining races. The driver will return to the track!

It's just that as great as the hope is, there is also great disappointment. Just ten days later, Schumacher announced that he had canceled his F1 comeback plan due to physical reasons. Let the fans who are waiting for him wonder if they will still have a chance to see him on the F1 track.

The ROC Nations Cup in 09 can be regarded as the largest automobile event that Schumacher has participated in in the past few years after his retirement. Although this is not a points-based professional race, you can still see him on the track, competing against other world champion drivers.

Being able to see the scene of the peak showdown is enough for the waiting fans, which is why Yanjing International Airport is so crowded.

On the other side, Xu Jia was also doing the final pre-race preparations. When he had the opportunity to join the F1 team in his previous life, Schumacher's skiing accident had already occurred.

The greatest driver in F1 history has never appeared in front of the world again.

Xu Jia doesn't know whether this world history will continue to develop according to its trajectory, but he doesn't want to miss this opportunity to compete with Schumacher. He has decided on the title of China's Car King, and even Jesus can't take it away!
Inside the packed equipment bag, there is a brand new racing suit, which is a Dragon Team uniform specially customized by Cheng Long for the team members.

Because the ROC Nations Cup not only has professional driver events, but also cultural and sports star exhibition games. This time there will be celebrity players such as Lin Zhiying, Wen Zhang, Yu Quan, Wu Jing, Olympic champion Yang Ling and so on.

Brother Cheng Long is a well-known racing enthusiast in Hong Kong Island and has held more than a dozen charity races. Naturally, he will not miss this ROC Nations Cup.

So he plans to take this opportunity to officially announce to the outside world that Xu Jia will join the Dragon Team and compete in the Asia-Pacific Rally Championship!

But what Xu Jia really cares about is not this racing suit, but the national flag on his belt. In the previous racing uniforms used for training, the nationality of the driver was not marked on the belt, but this time the National Cup is different. If he can become a member of the Chinese team, then Xu Jia will represent China in the competition!
Many times, for an athlete, the pinnacle of career honors is national honor!
Just like Schumacher has retired, he still chooses to fight for Germany.

Xu Jia’s lifelong dream is to have the Chinese national anthem played on the highest podium of F1.

It’s just that in the end, everyone is dead and failed to realize this dream. I hope to see that day in this life. In the morning of the race day, it was the track test time for foreign drivers, so it was only in the afternoon that Xu Jia and his team went to the Bird's Nest.

When you arrive at the Bird's Nest, go directly from the player tunnel to the backstage, where Xu Jia will prepare and warm up for the next Chinese Car Championship.

"Xiangbei, I heard that Schumacher and others have arrived in Yanjing. Can we see them today?"

After Li Wenfeng arrived in the lounge, he asked Xu Jia expectantly. For Chinese drivers in this era, it can be said that they grew up watching Schumacher's racing cars, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a national idol.

"They don't have a game today, so they may watch the game in the audience."

Today is just the Chinese Car Championship, and tomorrow is the ROC World Car Championship. However, in theory, foreign drivers may also watch the race live. Xu Jia is not sure.

"The young master must find a way to get them an autograph or something!"

In response to Li Wenfeng's sudden words, Xu Jia gestured towards him with his middle finger. He thought that this guy would say that he would compete with them on the same stage. It turned out that he just wanted an autograph. This ambition was too modest!
"Get ready to change clothes, the entrance ceremony for the participating drivers will be here soon."

The old drunkard saw Xu Jia and Li Wenfeng still chatting, so he urged them.

The old drunkard, who has always been relatively calm and indifferent, felt a little nervous inside at this time. After all, many of the participating drivers in this competition were once the pinnacle figures that Chinese professional drivers could only look up to, and even the old drunkard was no exception.

Hearing what the old drunkard said, Xu Jia walked into the locker room, put on a full set of racing protective gear, and waited for the next appearance ceremony.

At seven o'clock in the evening, after the opening motorcycle performance ceremony ended, Xu Jia, who was fully armed, walked out of the lounge and walked out of the tunnel with fifteen other participating riders and entered the center of the Bird's Nest Stadium!

But when Xu Jia appeared in front of other drivers, many people looked at him with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

Because before Xu Jia tried out, he was wearing an ordinary racing suit without any team or sponsorship logos. And according to ROC rules, if the driver does not join the team, he will wear ROC special racing uniforms during the competition.

Therefore, other drivers take it for granted that Xu Jia is a private driver and will enter the race wearing a ROC racing suit.

What they didn't expect was that Xu Jia actually came out wearing a racing suit with flames, auspicious clouds and dragon patterns. It was obviously a custom-made suit for the team.

But what surprised them even more was that the racing suit actually had the Dragons' LOGO on it.

Currently, the only professional team registered in China called Dragon Team is the one formed by Hong Kong movie star Cheng Long. But everyone in the circle knows that the driver the Dragon Team is waiting for is Chinese-American formula driver Cheng Fei.

As a result, the first person to wear the Dragons jersey is actually Xu Jia!

"He is indeed a member of the Dragon Team. You are right."

Chen Congfu said to Han Han beside him. The other party had said that Xu Jia was a member of the Dragon Team before, but it had not been confirmed after all, so he could not be 100% sure.

Now that Xu Jiadu has put on the team's racing uniform, he can completely confirm his identity. He is the first professional driver of the Dragon Team.

"I didn't believe it when I heard about it at the time. After all, he was the driver who replaced the U.S. champion Cheng Fei."

"Now I can only say that Brother Cheng Long has great vision. Xu Jia may be as good as Cheng Fei."

Hearing Han Han's answer, Chen Congfu nodded and continued: "Xu Jia is indeed very strong, but I watched his test run video with Ren Zhiguo last night, and I don't really believe that he is a rookie driver."

"I don't believe it either."

Xu Jia didn't know that Han Han and Chen Congfu were discussing him. He was walking in the player aisle with great expectations.

When he took the final step, the spotlight shone on Xu Jia. He saw 60,000 spectators at the Bird's Nest, welcoming the riders.

Although these cheers and applause were not for Xu Jia alone, the impact and shock they brought still made Xu Jia a little intoxicated.

Because once he could only stand off the field, watching the team's official drivers on the track, enjoying the cheers and applause of tens of thousands of fans. This was the first time in Xu Jia's life that he had experienced such a scene.

But this kind of intoxication was soon replaced by clear eyes. This was the first time to experience the cheers and applause of tens of thousands of people, but it will definitely not be the last time for me, Xu Jia!
