Chapter 217 Doubt

The layout of the Paul Ricard circuit has been questioned by many drivers. In the opinion of many drivers, canceling the big straight and adding a low-speed corner will not allow the drivers to get more overtaking opportunities, but will make the drivers feel uncomfortable .In the past two races, F1’s spectatorship has been criticized because of the near extinction of overtaking scenes. I don’t know if there will be some special stories in this weekend’s race.

Apart from the three major teams, Citroen once again encountered a nightmare qualifying race. Both of their drivers were eliminated in Q1. Altaïr has not scored points in several races in a row. He wants to enter the race. Regions will still appear to be more difficult.What is worthy of attention is the teenager Kendrick of Ruijin Racing Team. He fought hard to reach Q3 in qualifying today. Ruijin Racing Team celebrated as if he had won the pole position. Currently, Kendrick’s name is being linked with Dongsheng At the same time, his outstanding performance seems to be reminding Dongsheng that if he wants to sign, he needs to act earlier, otherwise he may be taken away by other giants.

In today's F1 French Grand Prix qualifying, Stewart of the Bingcheng team won the pole position, and his teammate Seaver won No.2 to help the team take the first row of the grid.Ice City was not satisfied with this performance, and Stewart said after the game that he could obviously be faster in Q3.

After coming to France, Bingcheng finally completed the upgrade work. They regained their advantage in terms of speed. Coupled with the special tires provided by the tire supplier, this made Bingcheng's advantage very obvious. In the practice session It took all the fastest laps.

In today's qualifying race, Stewart ranked first in the three quarters. In Q2, he used supersoft tires and overwhelmed Dongsheng who used ultrasoft tires. With the excellent performance in the last timing period of the last speeding lap, he returned to the top of the list and successfully won the pole position of this race.

After the game, Stewart said when talking about the game: "Our performance so far this weekend has been pretty normal. Today's weather conditions were a bit complicated, but it didn't have much impact. I didn't run my best in Q3. It’s fast, but it’s enough to get pole position.”

After returning to the French station, Stewart also expressed his welcome: "I feel very good about returning to France. This is a very beautiful place and the fans are very enthusiastic. I am very happy to be here to participate in the competition."

Teammate Seaver won No.2 today, and he had a good chance to get pole position in the race. Seaver also seemed a little regretful about it: "My lap in Q3 was not very perfect, of course it was not very bad. We had a great car this week, but I've been struggling to get a perfect lap time. It's great to help the team get the front row grid, the engine feels really good, it feels full of power, and I'm looking forward to tomorrow's race Race."

After Daniel came to France, Dongsheng was obviously at a disadvantage in the face of Bingcheng, which had completed the upgrade of the car. They were completely overwhelmed by their opponents in the practice match. They still did not get any chance in qualifying today. In Q2 they On the supersoft tires, they can't even catch up with Stewart, who uses the supersoft tires, which means that they will be at a disadvantage when they start tomorrow.

However, Daniel is still relatively confident about the performance of Dongsheng racing car in the long distance: "I have tried my best in Q3, but I was really anxious, and the car ran out of the track. At that time, I thought that if I could run out Surprised lap, I still have a chance to get pole position, but I am also satisfied with the No.3 result, because the car should be very good in the race. It is really a great experience to be back in France, for us It's exciting for everyone, the fans here are very enthusiastic and bring a lot of energy."

The two drivers of Leysin, Teslock and Virgil, finished fourth and fifth respectively today. The speed difference between them and the Ice City Cha distance is still quite obvious. In Vergil’s view, if it rains in the race, Leyssen will still be the best. There is a good chance to hit the podium position: "I feel like my hands are tied. The car has been understeer and we don't know how to solve it. We made some changes after practice, but then It started to rain and we had to change back to the previous setup and there was only so much we could do. I would be happy if it rained tomorrow, that would mean we would have a chance of a podium position if it was dry If so, it won’t be easy to overtake here.”

Santak only ranked 6th in qualifying today, his performance was disappointing, and his position in the team seemed increasingly unstable.Kendrick, the rumored candidate to replace him in the future, performed well today and entered Q3 in a sharp racing car.After the game, Santak admitted that his performance was not satisfactory: "Because of the rain, the track was a little wet, but my performance before Q3 was normal, but in Q3 I couldn't run a good lap. , which is really disappointing.”

Altaïr has not scored points in several races in a row. He and his teammates both stopped in Q1 in qualifying today, which means that it will still be difficult for him to enter the points area in this race.After the race, Altaïr said that he had done everything he could, but the performance of the car was a disaster: "We did everything we could, but the car still couldn't feel it, we had no speed and no grasp. The ground strength, especially on the slippery track, we really can't catch up with the guys in front, this performance is a disaster, now we can only hope that the race will be more chaotic, we can catch Chance to move up some ranks.”

In the final sprint of qualifying Q3, Santak made a mistake and only got Ferrari the sixth starting seat.During the period, there was another episode that was not explained in the live broadcast.On the last lap of Q3, Santak deliberately sucked the wake of Wesley's car ahead on the starting straight, and overtook Porter's car at the first turn of the speeding lap.Santek gave up the lap halfway, which also caused Wesley's lap to be severely disrupted.

Wesley said: "For whatever reason, Santek did this to ruin my qualifying lap. I doubt the stewards would be willing to punish a driver in the top three teams. This is the nature of this sport." The way we conduct ourselves." Less than an hour after Wesley made these remarks, the stewards' decision was made public, and Santak had indeed escaped punishment.
