How did I become an F1 driver?

Chapter 146 Chapter 144: Blatant release of water
After the game, those observers also left, just like Qin Miao didn't know when they appeared, Qin Miao didn't know when they left either.

But when Qin Miao returned home from the team meeting, Qiu Meng told Qin Miao a news that surprised him.

"Almost when you were on the podium at the end of the race, Toto called me and wanted to meet you."

Obviously, Qin Miao's performance in the F2 field moved Toto.

If Qin Miao’s previous performance in F2 can only be said to have made other teams have the intention to sign Qin Miao, but after Qin Miao’s mistake last Sunday, coupled with the blow from Ferrari, Qin Miao was still able to maintain his own The original heart, and stable performance on the court.

Qin Miao's ability to resist pressure coupled with his dominance in the arena completely moved Mei Ben.

But at this time, the cooperation between the old man and Bottas is pretty good, but they don't know whether they want Qin Miao to go to Williams for a year of experience or whether they want Qin Miao to become the backup driver of Mercedes.

Of course, the possibility of Qin Miao directly entering the Mercedes and driving is not ruled out.

It's just that the possibility of the last item is relatively low, because Mercedes is not a Red Bull.

Qin Miao, who had just sat down and was about to take a good rest, suddenly heard this question.

At the beginning, Qin Miao was a little surprised to hear the news, but thinking of the recent rumors in the paddock, Qin Miao basically knew what the other party was thinking.

So Qin Miao asked: "Did he say when we will meet?"

"He said it was ten o'clock in the morning on Monday, and he gave me the address." Qiu Meng didn't even look at her phone, and said it directly, obviously remembering it in her heart long ago.

Qin Miao nodded, but they didn't think deeply about why Toto wanted to find him.

Anyway, we have to meet and talk, so we'll know when we meet?
And the time of meeting was after the second Silverstone Grand Prix, so it's useless to think so much now.

Of course, at this time, there are still teams under observation. Although they are also very interested in Qin Miao, they have not made any moves in a short time.

Not long after this incident, Zhou Guanyu also came back.

Zhou Guanyu's performance in today's race can't be considered very good, and the team meeting after the race was a bit long, probably summing up mistakes or something else.

As soon as he saw Zhou Guanyu, Qin Miao remembered that this guy had stayed in the paddock much longer than himself.

Instead of thinking about your own headaches, ask his opinion.

Thinking of this, Qin Miao hurriedly pulled Zhou Guanyu to sit on the sofa.

Zhou Guanyu put down the soy sauce he was carrying, and sat down with a puzzled face.

Qiu Meng asked him to bring the soy sauce, and the bottle at home has expired.

"what?"

Qin Miao cleared her throat, and then said, "Dude, something happened recently."

Zhou Guanyu folded his arms and leaned back on the sofa, the meaning was obvious: If you have something to say, I will listen with all my ears.

Qin Miao touched her nose and said a little embarrassedly: "Didn't I have a little mishap in Ferrari recently? Then Toto from Mercedes came to see me, and Red Bull had contacted me before. He said that he could help me pay the liquidated damages of the contract..."

Zhou Guanyu originally thought that Qin Miao was looking for him because he wanted to find someone to confide in his inner troubles and sufferings.

But the more he listened to Qin Miao's words, the more he felt something was wrong. Are you here to pretend or complain?
So after half of Qin Miao's words, Zhou Guanyu got up and prepared to leave.

Why, I want to go to F1, but the team is not willing to take it. You are helping to pay liquidated damages, and the team leader personally talked to you. Which driver can stand it?

Thanks to the good relationship between Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu, otherwise Qin Miao would have been severely beaten for talking so high and low.

Qin Miao hurriedly stopped Zhou Guanyu who was about to get up and leave: "Brother, Brother Yu! Don't go, don't go, I'm serious."

Before Zhou Guanyu could speak, Qin Miao explained: "The main reason is that I have so many choices now that I don't even know how to choose.

For Ferrari, Binotto has fought for me internally. There will be an internal test before the start of next season. If my test results are better than Enns, next season can start normally for one year with my contract. Ferrari.

I'm pretty confident about that, internal testing is totally out of the question for me.

On the Mercedes side, although they didn’t clearly express their intentions for me, Toto personally came over to invite me to meet and talk on Monday morning. The level of attention has been fully drawn, but I don’t think I will be able to drive a Mercedes as soon as I pass by. It is very likely that I have entered Williams for a year and then I will see my follow-up performance.

Red Bull has sent me a contract of intent. Although the other party has not contacted me yet, I believe that if I want to, I should be able to enter the Red Bull system to drive next season. However, I should start from the small Red Bull, but it is possible. Halfway through the drive, he performed well and entered the first team directly. After all, Albon is somewhat dissatisfied with Red Bull's car now. "

When Qin Miao said this, Zhou Guanyu had already sat down again. "you mean?"

"Help me refer to the reference, how should I choose?"

Zhou Guanyu helped his forehead helplessly.

Droughts die from droughts, and floods die from floods.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Zhou Guanyu thought carefully for a while, not thinking about whether Qin Miao could become a qualified driver, but judging which team Qin Miao's character is suitable for.

After thinking for a long time, Zhou Guanyu looked up at Qin Miao again, and Qin Miao was also mentally prepared to listen to Zhou Guanyu's insights.

"do not know."

Qin Miao: ...

"Hey, hey, put your fist down, no, you should ask your wife and mother about such an important matter, what is it if you ask me?" Zhou Guanyu explained while stepping back.

Qin Miao didn't really want to beat Zhou Guanyu either. Seeing that the other party really didn't have any good advice, she put down her fist and said helplessly, "I think you've been in the paddock for so long, and you know some inside information, so you can give me some advice. Think something."

Zhou Guanyu waved his hand: "I'm just a small shrimp. I only stayed in F2 for a year and a half. How could there be internal information about these big teams?"

Qin Miao nodded: "Yes, I shouldn't count on you."

Zhou Guanyu rolled his eyes angrily, but he didn't say anything more about this matter. When in a hurry, people always hope to get support from other sources. This is also human nature, and Zhou Guanyu can understand it.

It's just that Qin Miao's current situation really makes Zhou Guanyu feel envious. After all, there is no teenager in this industry who has not envisioned the scene where he will kill the Quartet in the F2 arena.

But after entering F2, the cold reality tells you that you are not special, and there are more than 20 young drivers who are as talented as you.

But this handsome man in front of him appeared in front of Zhou Guanyu, and made countless F2 teams feel envious with his performance, because Qin Miao's current state is what they most want to achieve.

"Hey, I'm so confused, what should I choose~"

Seeing that Qin Miao was still pretending to be aggressive in front of him, Zhou Guanyu was furious from his heart, and he picked up the pillow on his sofa: "If you die, you don't have to choose!"

"Fuck!" Qin Miao, who had a pillow on his head, was stunned for a moment, and then he picked up a pillow on the sofa: "Big guts! How dare a rebellious son disobey his father!"

Hearing the movement in the living room, Qiu Meng poked her head out of the study curiously, and saw Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu fighting with pillows at a glance.

In just a few rounds of confrontation, the cotton wool in the pillow was thrown out by the two of them, flying around the living room.

Shaking her head helplessly, Qiu Meng turned around and went back to the study, continuing to work on her own affairs.

Anyway, when the time comes, someone will be called to clean up. Zhou Guanyu doesn't have any fragile items such as porcelain in his house, and he is not afraid of breaking things.

After 10 minutes, the number of pillows on Zhou Guanyu's sofa is -2.

Originally, Zhou Guanyu’s sofa set had 6 pillows, but now 4 of them have been broken.

Normal pillows are actually not that easy to break, but both of them have good physical fitness. You must know that F2 racing cars do not have power steering. When cornering, the steering wheel is controlled purely by the strength of the F2 driver's arm.

It should come as no surprise that the pillow is broken in just a few rounds.

……

The next day, the day the sprint race begins.

Qin Miao was eighth on the grid, while Zhou Guanyu was ninth.

Although Qin Miao didn't respond positively to Zhou Guanyu's request yesterday, but they are friends after all, even if Zhou Guanyu didn't say anything, Qin Miao would still give him some trouble.

There were still people watching Qin Miao's performance in today's race. The number of people did not decrease, but increased slightly. However, these people may also be here to observe other drivers.

Qin Miao was already getting used to the existence of these people, so she quickly withdrew her thoughts.

Normally, the first shot after the broadcast of the F2 race is usually the scenery or some characteristic corners on the track.

As for today's competition, the director directly pointed his camera at Qin Miao, who was ranked eighth, and almost inserted his camera under Qin Miao's flip-flops to shoot Qin Miao's face.

Qin Miao naturally also saw the photographer in front of him, but from his angle, he couldn't see the screen of the live broadcast, and he didn't know if his own picture was being displayed on it, but being idle was idle, Qin Miao was right Blinked at the camera.

"Qin Miao's facial features are actually quite good-looking, and the whole body is very coordinated. After a long time, you will feel very comfortable."

What Qin Miao didn't know was that the three commentators of Five-Star Sports and the audience who were watching Five-Star Sports happened to see the action he made out of his brain.

Zhou Haoran even commented on Qin Miao's appearance.

……

As for the race process, it was basically the same as the previous F2 sprint races without rain, Qin Miao was chopping melons and vegetables.

These competitors who hang him unilaterally fight.

In the 21 laps of the race, Qin Miao finished a set of hard tires directly.

During the period, on the 12th lap, he passed from the eighth road to the first place, and Zhou Guanyu also followed behind Qin Miao to pick up the wallet.

All the way from ninth to third.

If you say that Zhou Guanyu has not specially practiced how to follow the car, no one will believe it.

Basically, Zhou Guanyu just saw stitches along the way, and Qin Miao's way of overtaking was also very suitable for Zhou Guanyu's performance.

Qin Miao's overtaking method is generally to rely on DRS to eat the wake of the car in front, and then complete the tap before entering the corner and occupy the inside lane, and then use the late brake to force the inside lane, and then exit the corner to complete the overtaking.

And Zhou Guanyu usually sticks to the back of Qin Miao's car to pick up his wallet at this time, and at the same time blocks the hapless guy who was fucked from returning to the normal lane.

Also relying on this method, Zhou Guanyu came all the way to the third position.

If Jiaotian, who is currently ranked second, hadn't squeezed Zhou Guanyu's traffic lane when Zhou Guanyu cut in, and even had a wheel-to-wheel collision with Zhou Guanyu, Zhou Guanyu should be ranked second at this moment.

The last three also crossed the line according to this ranking.

……

After the team meeting after the race, Qin Miao came to the gate of Zhou Guanyu's team and waited for his friend, and then they left the paddock side by side.

"By the way, there will be an F1 race later on. Logically speaking, Ferrari should ask you to go to the P room to watch the race. Why didn't you go today?" Zhou Guanyu asked curiously on the way out of the paddock.

Qin Miao shrugged: "I called, but I didn't go."

"You..." Zhou Guanyu wanted to say something, after all, this kind of opportunity is really not something that any F2 driver can enjoy, but thinking of the situation Qin Miao is currently facing, Zhou Guanyu still didn't say anything more on this topic Instead, he asked, "Have you made up your mind?"

Qin Miao obviously knew what Zhou Guanyu was asking: "There's no need to make up your mind. Strictly speaking, my buddies have been kicked out of the house, so I simply don't want to praise their stinky feet."

Zhou Guanyu patted Qin Miao on the shoulder: "My father loves you like a mountain, and my father will always be your strong backing."

"Damn it, die for me!" Qin Miao raised her foot and kicked Qin Miao's ass.

Zhou Guanyu wanted to dodge, but with the third runner-up trophy in one hand and the third runner-up champagne in the other, his agility was weakened by the two things in his hands, and Qin Miao kicked him in the ass.

……

Looking at the two young men who were fighting and leaving the paddock, Luo Xin felt a little disappointed.

Although he didn't say it clearly, Qin Miao's various behaviors now mean that he no longer wants to stay in Ferrari, and his sense of belonging to Ferrari should have been almost worn away in those political struggles.

If nothing else happens, Qin Miao will leave Ferrari's youth training to join other teams in the near future.

Luo Xin saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. He could only watch Qin Miao's back drifting away.

At the same time, Rossing is also clearly aware of how serious the political struggle within Ferrari is now, and those people have reached the point where they can sacrifice the interests of the team for their own interests.

Looking at Qin Miao who was holding the trophy, carrying champagne, and leaving the paddock side by side with Zhou Guanyu, Luo Xin let out a long sigh: "Wofa~"

ps. Thinking about the follow-up plot, there is no time to add more, today there are only four thousand...
