How did I become an F1 driver?

The other party gave a wry smile, then turned to Qin Miao, letting Qin Miao see him more clearly before saying, "It's me, Fan Yue."

Qin Miao was stunned, and after seeing the other person's face clearly, he patted his helmet: "Oops! My, my, my, squad leader, I'm sorry, I haven't seen you for so long, you have become so beautiful that I didn't recognize you for a while. "

After apologizing, Qin Miao asked in surprise: "Why did you come to the United States? Without telling me in advance, what kind of tickets did you buy if you wanted to come to the game? I have a lot of insiders here. The tickets can be given away, so you don’t have to waste any money.”

Fan Yue seemed helpless and complained: "You really don't care about your old classmates after graduation. I came to the United States to study. I have been out for three years. As for the tickets... this Didn’t you give it to me?”

Qin Miao:? ? ?
"what?"

After being surprised, Qin Miao realized that the ticket in Fan Yue's hand should have been given by his mother. After all, Fan Yue was his neighbor.

As she is about to return to China recently, she will definitely chat with her neighbors. Naturally, she will know that Fan Yue has come to study in the United States. It will not be strange to give him a ticket to watch the F1 race.

Mom has always been very generous to the neighbors.

Moreover, if the ticket invited by your own driver is useless, it will really be a waste in the eyes of the older generation.

Qin Miao laughed, "Hey, I'm actually not responsible for these things. I really don't know."

"None of your old classmates knows that you are a busy person. You have never been to your junior high school reunion."

Qin Miao smiled sheepishly: "Why don't you be busy with the competition? I can't help it."

When talking about this, the staff of the Mercedes-Benz team saw that Qin Miao had not driven since he was fascinated by Qin Miao's car, so he came over and gently patted the roof of Qin Miao's AMG GT R. Gai, bent down and gave Qin Miao a confused look through the passenger window.

Only then did Qin Miao realize that there were still many team VIPs queuing up. Now was not the time to catch up with old classmates.

Showing an OK gesture to the other party, Qin Miao released the handbrake and gradually applied the gas. The AMG GT R's engine roared and it drove out of the parking space.

"There are still many people queuing up behind. Let's go through the process first. After completing the process, I will invite you to have a meal in the team canteen in the evening. Outsiders cannot eat in the team canteen." Qin Miao explained.

Fan Yue nodded: "Then I will take advantage of you."

After finishing speaking, Fan Yue looked at Qin Miao curiously.

At this moment, Fan Yue was smiling on the outside, still the same as when she was in high school, but she was a little complicated inside.

Because she knew clearly that Qin Miao liked her when she was studying.

But judging from Qin Miao's behavior now, when facing him, his demeanor is relaxed and natural, his eyes clear and calm, it's really like he is treating an old classmate he hasn't seen for a long time.

Could it be that he really...

Before Fan Yue could think about it, Qin Miao had already driven out of the maintenance area in the Mercedes-AMG GT R.

After exiting the speed limit zone, Qin Miao kicked the car directly to the floor. The Mercedes 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbocharged engine made the unique sound of the AMG GT R and began to accelerate at full speed.

Although the acceleration of this AMG GT R is not as good as the F1 car that Qin Miao drives almost every week, the engine of the car can also bring the driver more than 0.6G of forward acceleration when the oil is on the floor.

The back feeling is quite good.

Fan Yue, who had experienced this feeling for the first time, had all the random thoughts in her mind wiped out by Qin Miao's kick of the accelerator.

Next, Qin Miao did not slow down or slow down his driving pace just because Fan Yue was sitting in the passenger seat.

Normally, how would I take the VIPs of other teams to run on the track? Now I will run on the track myself.

So much so that during the entire process, Fan Yue had no thoughts in her mind, and her whole body was focused on fighting against the lateral G force generated by the fierce driving of the car.

But from the deepest feeling in her heart, Fan Yue didn't feel panic. Even though there were several times she felt that Qin Miao would drive the racing car off the track in the next second.

This can be regarded as the longest and shortest 2 minutes and 30 seconds in Fan Yue's life.

The AMG GT R returned to the pits after a lap on the track.

Fan Yue got off the car, and Qin Miao said to Fan Yue: "Go directly to the rest area at the entrance of our team's team home and wait for me for about half an hour. If anyone asks, just say that I asked you to wait there. Come on, I'll come find you when I'm done."

"Oh, okay." Fan Yue nodded with lingering fear.

After saying that, he stumbled out of the car with some unsteady steps.

After a while, another car fan got into the car.

"Qin Miao, Oh, my god, I finally see you. Can you sign your name for me after this lap?"

"Of course you can, but sir, please fasten your seat belt and buckle your helmet now..."

Looking at the AMG GT R going away, Fan Yue came back to her senses and felt a little empty in her heart...

……

After work, Qin Miao returned to the team house and took a shower. Then he took out his mobile phone and told Qiu Meng that he saw Fan Yue in the paddock and reported that he was going to treat him to lunch.

Qiu Meng's side was in the early morning, so he was probably still sleeping, so he didn't reply to Qin Miao.

Qin Miao didn't care very much. Whether she replied or not was one thing, but whether she reported it or not was another matter.

After taking care of this, Qin Miao went out and naturally saw Fan Yue in the rest area at the entrance of the team home.

When they were in the car just now, the other party was wearing a helmet, and it had been too long since he had seen the other party. Qin Miao really didn't recognize the other party for a while.

But now after taking off his helmet, Qin Miao found the familiar feeling on the opponent's body.

Even Fan Yue today gave Qin Miao a bright feeling. Not only was her makeup exquisite, but her dress also happened to be the kind of pure white moonlight that Qin Miao liked best in junior high school.

Overall, it's a lot more beautiful than before, and it would be at least a 10 out of 9.

"Come on, let me show you what a real F1 driver usually eats." However, Qin Miao did not stare at the other person's face for too long. He quickly looked away and opened the door and said with a smile.

Hearing Qin Miao's greeting, Fan Yue stood up from her seat and followed Qin Miao's steps with curiosity on her face.

When the staff of the Mercedes-Benz team saw Qin Miao bringing a stranger, a very beautiful strange woman, their eyes were full of curiosity and gossip, but no one came up to inquire deliberately. Everyone was still measured. , even if you eat melon, you will eat it silently at your own place and will not disturb the person involved.

Along the way, Qin Miao naturally introduced to Fan Yue the various functional departments of the team and the work they were responsible for. By the way, he also introduced what he would do during a Grand Prix weekend and what the work process was. Soon the two arrived at the team's restaurant.

Qin Miao had already greeted the team before arriving, so the cook who specially prepared Chinese food for Qin Miao was there.

And several dishes have been prepared for Qin Miao.

Fan Yue looked at the fried pork with chili pepper, braised pork ribs, sweet and sour pork loin, and spicy stir-fried chicken on the table, feeling a little dazed.

As an international student, Fan Yue's experience after coming out of China was the same as Qin Miao's when she first came to compete abroad. So after seeing so much food, she swallowed subconsciously, but still asked with some confusion: " I heard that you F1 drivers don’t have very strict dietary requirements? Why do you..."

Qin Miao waved his hand carelessly: "People's physiques cannot be generalized. I am unique among all F1 drivers in terms of diet. I can eat basically anything, and I don't have to worry about getting fat. I don't have to worry about the vitamin balance in my body." no need to worry."

"oh oh……"

"I can tell you're hungry by the look on your face. Use your chopsticks quickly." Qin Miao asked Fan Yue to sit down.

Qin Miao ate this meal quite casually, and did not show any concern at all. On the contrary, Fan Yue was a little absent-minded from the beginning of the meal.

Qin Miao has been in the paddock for a while, although he is not as good as Toto and other team leaders in terms of understanding and employing people. It is possible that Qin Miao's ability in this aspect is not as good as that of Ferrari's Mr. Bi.

But Qin Miao could still see Fan Yue's true thoughts beneath his uneasy appearance.

However, Qin Miao didn't point it out. His idea was very simple. If he missed something, he just missed it.

Now that things have come to this, let's save each other's face and leave a little room. There is no need to reveal what happened at the beginning. In this way, at least after we meet, we can still get along with each other in the pure relationship between old classmates. It would be really difficult for you to meet each other. Difficulties that can be solved by my own ability can only be solved by relying on my relationship with my classmates. If I can help, I will definitely help.

After dinner, it was already Qin Miao's normal off-duty time, but after all, a guest came today. Qin Miao still thought about taking Fan Yue to the P room of the Mercedes-Benz team to have a look, but she thought of the FIA's curfew rules. , Qin Miao had no choice but to give up.

However, Qin Miao still took her around the paddock and asked for photos with many F1 drivers who were still in the F1 paddock.

Qin Miao still has some face. As long as it is not Russell, basically all drivers have a good sense of Qin Miao, so naturally they will not reject Qin Miao's request.

After we had finished shopping, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.

At this point there are no team staff busy in the paddock.

After all, there are curfew rules, and only the team's long-term staff stationed in the P room are looking after the team's equipment.

Qin Miao and Fan Yue came to the parking lot together.

After opening the Maybach prepared for them by the team, Qin Miao and Fan Yue got into the car.

"Are you staying in a hotel now or renting a house nearby?"

After being stunned for a while, Fan Yue asked: "Is there any difference?"

"Of course there is a difference. If you live nearby, it wouldn't be a big deal if I drove you back directly. I'm even a little worried about letting you go back alone."

"But if you live far away, I definitely won't have time to see you off. I'll ask my physical trainer to help me see you off then. I have a game tomorrow and can't sleep too late." Qin Miao said helplessly: "You When you come to watch the race, can’t you understand in advance the daily routine of the F1 drivers during a Grand Prix weekend?”

Listening to Qin Miao's words, which were as natural as complaints between friends, Fan Yue sighed helplessly in her heart.

What I can't let go of now is myself.

But she still wanted to try.

"I broke up."

Qin Miao sighed helplessly after hearing this. Qin Miao, who had never smoked, even wanted to light a cigarette at this time.

But there was none in the car, so Qin Miao didn't have this chance.

There was silence in the car for a while before Qin Miao said, "I have a child. Qiu Meng was pregnant with her three months ago."

Fan Yue:......

Then the car became quiet, and neither Qin Miao nor Fan Yue spoke anymore.

Qin Miao actually wanted to ask Fan Yue where the other party lived and whether he should send him back, but the atmosphere in the car was indeed a bit awkward at this time. Qin Miao didn't say anything inappropriate and drove directly to the car. The parking lot below your hotel.

Before getting out of the car, Qin Miao sat in the car and called Barber and asked him to come down.

While waiting, Qin Miao said: "Let's pretend that the conversation we just had never happened. You are still my beloved deputy squad leader, and I am just a person who has made a name for himself by going abroad because of my luck. Classmates, if you need help in the future, please tell me and I will help you if I can.”

After saying that, Qin Miao got out of the car.

After a while, Barber came over wearing his own clothes. After seeing Qin Miao and the beautiful girl in Qin Miao's car, he originally wanted to tease Qin Miao about his femininity, but he looked at Qin Miao's serious look. With an expression on his face, Barber still chose to shut up.

"In the car is a classmate of mine from junior high school. Our relationship... is pretty good. It's a bit too late today. Please help me send him back." Qin Miao said to Barber.

Barber patted his chest: "Don't worry while I do the work."

After the explanation, Qin Miao turned back to Fan Yue and said: "Squad leader, you can come to our team's P room for Saturday qualifying and Sunday's race. Just look for him then." Qin Miao patted Barber on the hand. Shoulder: "I have a game tomorrow, so I'm going to rest first."

After finishing speaking, Qin Miao told Barber: "Pay attention to safety on the road."

……

To be honest, Qin Miao is more grateful now that at least Fan Yue is not a messy person. After she clearly refused, the other party should feel uncomfortable for a while...or, more appropriately, it would be a pity for a while?
In short, you will get used to it slowly...

After returning to the hotel, Qin Miao reported to Qiu Meng all the schedule he and Fan Yue had together today.

Then I went to wash up and go to bed.

On the contrary, after getting up on the second day, Qiu Meng was confused when she saw Qin Miao's report. You just saw your old classmates when you saw them. Do you need to tell me in such detail?

All in all, Thursday went by fairly easily.

Time soon came to Friday.

The day when the first and second training begins. (End of chapter)
