How did I become an F1 driver?

Chapter 147 Chapter 145: The Freshly Baked Prince Meiben

The sprint rankings and scores are as follows:
Qin Miao: +17
Kakuda+12
Zhou Guanyu+10
Mick +8
Aikent +6
Drey Traz +4
Ilot +2
Ma Zeping +1
After the sprint race, Qin Miao's current total points reached 196 points.

Although there are still seven races to run in F2 this season, the current strength and stability Qin Miao has shown on the field.

No one doubts whether this season's F2 championship will eventually fall into Qin Miao's hands.

In fact, after the F2 race, Ferrari did not simply call Qin Miao to tell him to come to Ferrari's P room to watch the race, but Binotto personally called Qin Miao to invite Qin Miao to come to Ferrari's P room to watch the race again .

And this time, Qin Miao was not asked to stay in room P, but a place was prepared for Qin Miao at the podium.

There are also F2 drivers who will be called to the podium to watch the battle, but those drivers basically can only stand by the podium and watch.

Not to mention that it is harsh to watch the whole race from the sidelines, calling the young driver to watch the race next to his podium actually represents the team's recognition of the driver.

Among other things, after this signal is released, there will definitely be many merchants who want to sponsor this driver before he grows up.

As long as the driver is willing, he can easily earn several million RMB through sponsorship and advertising in a short period of time.

The most important thing is that being here can easily expand your popularity in the paddock.

This is an opportunity that many F2 drivers can't ask for.

This time, Binotto not only called Qin Miao here, but also specially prepared a stool for Qin Miao. From these details, it can be seen that Binotto really wanted to show Qin Miao his respect for him. Pay attention to.

In fact, Binotto still wanted Qin Miao to drive a car in Ferrari for a year, so he used Qin Miao's one-year contract to make a fuss about it.

He firmly believes that with Qin Miao's ability, he will have the strength to defeat Sainz in the internal test of Ferrari in the near future. Although Binotto does not have the support of Qin Miao's F1 racing data in reality, he believes in his own. judge.

And after Qin Miao defeated Sainz, Binotto could ask the senior management to consider letting Qin Miao drive in Ferrari for a year to see his performance.

If it doesn't work, just win it on the spot. Anyway, it's only a one-year contract, and there is Sainz as an alternative.

But if Qin Miao's performance is acceptable, let him finish the year and not renew his contract in the second year.

After all, I have Ferrari's own team, so I can't afford three drivers, can I?

Binotto knows that the rest of this is bullshit. As far as Qin Miao's terrifying talent is concerned, as long as he is allowed to run a race on a Ferrari, the higher-ups will be able to see Qin Miao's terrifying strength. It will be easy for Qin Miao to get on a Ferrari. It will be difficult to get him down again.

It's just that all of this is not true now, because Qin Miao directly declined Binotto's invitation.

Only a high stool was left next to Ferrari's podium. I don't know who will sit on it.

……

After today's race, the F2 trucks in the paddock left the paddock with their luggage.

Prema also set off directly after the race. They need to return to Vicenza for a meeting and conduct a comprehensive inspection of the two cars.

After all, engine failure is not a trivial matter, and both cars have to check the hidden dangers in the racing car.

It was predictable that Sui Wentao and the others' vacation this week was completely ruined.

But Qin Miao did not go back with them, and chose to stay in England for one more day. The purpose has already been mentioned before. Toto, the team leader of the Mercedes-Benz team, wanted to meet Qin Miao.

In the evening, Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu spent a relaxing night together...

Don't think about it too much, the relaxation here refers to the fact that the two of them didn't train at night, and they didn't touch the simulator, they just played games all night.

After finally having a period of rest, Qiu Meng didn't spoil their fun, letting them play until after 11 o'clock in the evening before catching them to bed.

The next day, Qin Miao got up early under the influence of the biological clock. It may be because of the system. Qin Miao sleeps very well on weekdays and needs a short sleep time.

Knowing that the meeting with Toto today is related to Qin Miao's future career, Qiu Meng had already prepared a decent gray suit for Qin Miao when Qin Miao and the others were playing games last night.

Because Qin Miao's face is still a little childish, if he wears a black suit, he will have a funny feeling of a child wearing his parents' clothes.

So Qiu Meng chose a mild gray suit for Qin Miao.

Gray is more suitable for Qin Miao's temperament, and it is not as serious as black. Qin Miao can't control it at all, but it is also formal enough.

After getting dressed, Qiu Meng tidied Qin Miao's neckline again, and then nodded in satisfaction after making sure it was all right.

Girls like dress-up games more, and Qiu Meng also has this hobby. Dressing Qin Miao, who only pays attention to convenience and comfort in dressing, into the look she likes, will still bring Qiu Meng a lot of sense of accomplishment.

She looked in the mirror again, and after confirming that there was no problem, Qin Miao said, "Then I'm leaving."

"Go, be more polite after we meet, and let go of your bad temper." Although Qin Miao was very relieved, Qiu Meng subconsciously ordered a few words.

Qin Miao nodded.

But before leaving, Qin Miao hugged Qiumeng and gnawed on her little collagen-filled face.

If Zhou Guanyu was awake at this time and saw this scene, he would definitely put on the pain mask again...

Leaving Zhou Guanyu's house, Qin Miao didn't drive Zhou Guanyu's car. After all, Qin Miao didn't know if he could find a suitable parking space at the place where Totoyo met him. If he couldn't find it, Zhou Guanyu's car would be fined I'm sorry, aren't I?
Arriving at the agreed place half an hour earlier, there was no one in the cafe, and Toto was naturally absent, so Qin Miao randomly found a corner that was not easy to be noticed and ordered a cup of yogurt.

In fact, if he was waiting for someone in this environment under normal conditions, such as Luo Xin and Zhou Guanyu, Qin Miao would take out his infinite health potion thermos and simulate driving in his mind while drinking the health potion.

It's just that the person I'm going to meet today is a bit high-ranking, and he may become Qin Miao's future leader, so Qin Miao feels that it is necessary for him to leave a more orderly first impression on the other party.

After all, after countless short videos and combined with her own feelings, Qin Miao clearly knows how important a first impression is to a person.

It's just that Qin Miao didn't consider the possibility that Toto knew his character well through various inquiries before he was going to talk to him.

Not long after, Toto pushed the door and walked in wearing a black mask.

Although Qin Miao's position was not very eye-catching, she could still see the door, so after Toto came in, Qin Miao waved at him.

This is a relatively small cafe, and it is unlikely that there will be customers at ten o'clock in the morning on Monday, so Qin Miao is the only person in the entire cafe at this time, and she is also an Asian. , Toto didn't care if he didn't find Qin Miao.

Without ordering anything, Toto just nodded to the boss behind the counter, and then came to Qin Miao.

At this time, Qin Miao had already stood up from her seat.

After the other party approached with a smile, Qin Miao could take a closer look at the driver of the Mercedes F1 team in front of him.

Toto is very tall, even comparable to Binotto, and even a head taller than Qin Miao, but for some reason, he doesn't feel pressured when standing beside Toto.

Black hair and blue eyes, the wrinkles on the face and cheeks will squeeze together when you smile, but it doesn't look ugly, but it will give people a sense of affinity.

It seems that basically everyone who is a team leader will give his subordinates a gentle feeling when he laughs.

Originally, Qin Miao wanted to reach out and shake hands with each other after seeing him, but after seeing Qin Miao, Toto smiled and hugged Qin Miao directly.

Having been abroad for such a long time, Qin Miao is still not used to this kind of hug after meeting acquaintances. He is more used to greeting Zhou Guanyu directly after meeting him.

After seeing Qin Miao, Toto was obviously very happy: "Son, it's a pleasure to see you here."

Qin Miao also responded politely: "I am also very honored to meet you."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the two sat down one after another.

And when Toto just sat down, the boss also brought coffee and put it on the table in front of Toto.

After thanking him, Toto asked while holding the sugar cube with a tool and putting it in the coffee: "Is everything going wrong recently?"

Although I didn't expect that the first sentence the other party said would be this, but thinking of what happened recently, Qin Miao smiled wryly: "Some unpleasant things did happen."

Toto also said empathetically: "I understand you, child.

But this is the paddock, there are always some people who will do something incomprehensible for profit. "

Speaking of this, Toto changed his tone: "But it is undeniable that Ferrari is indeed a team that can make people go forward. It has a profound heritage, a huge fan group that is almost terrifying, and its transcendent historical status in F1. Let me tell you. I'm not afraid of your jokes, I used to be a Ferrari fan, but now, ha ha."

Although it seems that Toto's words are praising Ferrari, but in Toto's words, basically there is nothing about the topic that the two are going to talk about when they meet today.

If you are a quick-witted person, you can quickly think that Toto's words are giving Qin Miao a psychological hint. His Ferrari is an old antique, so he has an advantage in these historical backgrounds, and he is completely inferior in other aspects. Dare to flatter you, you can't keep talents at all, just like me and you Qin Miao.

If you put Qiumeng here, she will definitely be able to understand the hidden meaning in Toto's words. On the one hand, she belittles Ferrari, and on the other hand, she finds a common topic for the two of them, and brings the relationship closer, which is very convenient. The next topic develops.

It's a pity that Qin Miao, with her social experience and brain, couldn't understand the meaning of Toto's words at all, so she could only follow Toto's words: "I remember Vettel said in an interview that everyone is Ferrari fans, it seems to be true."

Toto: ...

After all, he is a child, Toto sighed in his heart.

After that, Toto stopped playing those fake things. Judging from the contact and information collected during this period, Qin Miao is basically a young man with no intentions. It is best to talk about things when chatting with this kind of person, and don't go around like that. There are so many twists and turns, he can't understand even if he goes around.

After taking a sip of coffee, Toto smiled and asked, "You should already know. I called you this time to ask you if you have ever considered joining the Mercedes-Benz system."

Qin Miao frowned. He really couldn't understand the hidden meaning of those people's words, but he could still understand the superficial meaning of the words.

What Toto asked this time was whether to join the Mercedes-Benz system, not whether to join the Mercedes-Benz F1 team.

The difference in just a few words can make a huge difference.

Toto didn't explain, just looked at Qin Miao, waiting for his reply.

Qin Miao thought for a while and asked tentatively, "If I join, can I drive F1 next year?"

Toto shrugged: "The key to whether you can drive an F1 car next year is not whether I agree to let you drive, but you.

If you can maintain your current form, you may even come to Mercedes' first team next year.

But if you can only win the F2 championship in the end, without the current dominant performance, then you can still enter F1, but you have to enter Williams or Racing Point for a season to see your F1 competition adaptability. "

Qin Miao nodded knowingly. As for driving high and low, he didn't even win the F2 championship?
Toto didn't think about it, and Qin Miao didn't think he could do this.

"I see." Qin Miao took a deep breath: "I'm really thinking about whether to leave Ferrari recently. Although they have a great possibility to offer me a position as an F1 driver next season, some of Ferrari's Some of the things people did really shocked me a lot.

Therefore, I think Mercedes is my first stop after leaving Ferrari's youth training. "

There was a smile on Toto's face. Chatting with young people is good, it's simple and straightforward, you don't need to die so many brain cells, just say whatever you want, just go straight.

"I believe you will never regret the decision you made today." Toto stood up with a smile, and extended his hand to Qin Miao formally.

Qin Miao also got up, and the two of them held hands together, which was regarded as a verbal agreement between the two.

As for the details of the contract, that's not what the two of them want to talk about, they will all be handed over to the team behind them.

Basically, Qin Miao didn't have much requirement for salary or anything, it was enough to support her own mother, and the rest of the money was enough for Qin Miao and his wife's daily expenses.

But one thing is Qin Miao's bottom line, that is to reduce Qin Miao's media activities, the pre-race parade and interviews that all drivers have to participate in, and the interviews and filming after the race are acceptable to Qin Miao.

But for other things, such as commercial shooting and sponsorship activities, Qin Miao basically just didn't go if he could.

Except for this bottom line that cannot be regressed, everything else can be discussed.

After shaking hands, the two sat back down again. Qin Miao asked curiously at this time: "Mr. Wolf, I want to know how to deal with my contract at Ferrari?"
