How did I become an F1 driver?

"I calculated that the baby should be born in July, so it should be three months old now. The due date is around April next year. I just hope it's not during the competition week."

Zhou Guanyu thought about the schedule and asked, "Next year's schedule has actually been announced a long time ago. Didn't you see it?"

"I looked at it, but I mainly looked at which grand prix there were and how long the break was between the grand prix. I didn't look at the dates on the calendar." Qin Miao explained.

Zhou Guanyu shook his head helplessly, but then smiled and said, "This approach is indeed in line with your character."

After that, Zhou Guanyu took out his phone, flipped through the album, and found the photo of the 2023 season calendar. He then placed the photo in front of Qin Miao and said, "There will be a three-week break in April next year. As long as the due date is not at the beginning or end of the month, you should be able to catch up with the birth of your baby."

Qin Miao was stunned: "How come there is such a big gap?"

Zhou Guanyu said as a matter of course: "The China Grand Prix, this window period is reserved for the Shanghai Grand Prix, but due to domestic policy reasons, the Shanghai Grand Prix has been cancelled. Originally, the entire April was the China Grand Prix. If it was held, you would be in China at that time."

"In fact, there was originally a one-month window period, that is to say, if the race is not cancelled, you can go back to China directly after the Australian Grand Prix next year to prepare, and you can stay in China for the next month."

Qin Miao only realized at this time: "Next year's Chinese Grand Prix has been cancelled again?"

"Yeah, I'm helpless too. If the Chinese Grand Prix goes ahead, the audience's main attention will definitely be on you, and the attention I can get won't be too high."

"But no matter what, I still want to experience what it feels like to play at home."

Qin Miao shrugged: "According to what you said, it will probably take until 24 years. But I even feel that the domestic policy will be relaxed this year. It is really a pity that we cannot hold the competition in China in 23 years."

"Who says it's not..."

……

Although the two drivers felt a little bit sorry because the home race was cancelled again, Qin Miao was still very happy with today's meal since he didn't have to pay for it himself.

The two of them usually didn't talk much while eating, and Zhou Guanyu paid the bill after they finished eating.

After a short rest and a chat with Zhou Guanyu about the next season, Qin Miao left.

Because there were two weeks of rest time, Zhou Guanyu was not in a hurry after eating. He planned to have a good sleep and then return to England the next day.

He doesn't have much pressure in Mexico.

Qin Miao went directly to the airport after finishing his meal.

Due to the special nature of Qin Miao's work, he certainly couldn't stay with Qiu Meng for a long time. Now that he finally has some time to rest, Qin Miao naturally wants to go back to China to accompany his wife. Even if it's only for a few days, it's still companionship, isn't it?

So after they finished their meal, they parted at the restaurant entrance. Qin Miao went to the airport and Zhou Guanyu went to the hotel.

The flight from Mexico to China is quite long, which is like flying from one end of the earth to the other. After landing, Qin Miao also encountered the problem of jet lag.

Because when he was on the plane, Qin Miao couldn't help but fell asleep. After all, after a whole day of racing, the physical exertion was really too great for the drivers. Even someone as strong as Qin Miao couldn't stand it.

So when Qin Miao's plane landed in China, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and Qin Miao was extremely energetic at this time.

Therefore, Qin Miao did not rest. After getting off the plane, he called a taxi and returned home.

Qin Miao didn't tell his family when he came back this time, so no one came to pick him up.

However, this time Qin Miao did not return to his hometown, but went to Changsha.

In order to take better care of Qiu Meng, my mother bought a house in Changsha.

Although Qin Miao had never been there, he had the address of the house, so it was not difficult to find the place.

After arriving and looking at this house which was somewhat unfamiliar to him, Qin Miao felt a little confused for a moment. It seemed like there was no access control and I didn’t know the password to the house. How could I get in?
Qiu Meng and her mother had never told Qin Miao the access code of the house...and the plane landed at 9 o'clock in the evening, and now it was almost 10 or 11 o'clock when she arrived at Qin Miao's so-called home. It goes without saying that Qiu Meng, her mother, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law should have been asleep at this time. The fact that there was no light in the villa from the outside was the best proof.

Qin Miao scratched his head helplessly.

In the end, Qin Miao did not disturb his family's rest. He took out his cell phone, called a taxi again, and went to the city.

Qin Miao didn't go out for a stroll. After all, he had some idea of ​​how recognizable he was in China.

If you get recognized when you go out, you won't just be in trouble.

So Qin Miao naturally found a hotel and prepared to sleep there for a night. Of course, Qin Miao, who often suffered from jet lag, knew that he might not be able to sleep in this state.

If he really couldn't sleep, Qin Miao would probably play on the computer in the hotel to kill time.

But after all, Qin Miao now only has a laptop computer. Both the computer performance and the screen size are not up to the level that Qin Miao is most accustomed to and comfortable playing games with. So Qin Miao did not play any competitive games, but instead opened "Civilization 6", which is a good game to kill time.

Qin Miao's experience was indeed like this. Except for ordering a barbecue at around 3 a.m. because he was hungry, Qin Miao focused on the game all the time.

When he came to his senses, the sky outside the window was already completely bright.

After stretching his sore back, Qin Miao went to the hotel front desk to check out, and then returned to his home.

The door was still locked, but Qin Miao could vaguely hear voices coming from inside the house at the door.

Qin Miao pressed the doorbell and thought someone would come to open the door, but a voice suddenly appeared at the door: "Sanshui? When did you come back?"

The sound came from the speaker below the doorbell. It was obvious that the people at home did not open the door immediately after hearing someone knocking on the door, but instead used cameras to see who was ringing the doorbell.

Qin Miao was also familiar with this voice; it was the voice of Qiu Meng's father.

Before Qin Miao could say anything, the door opened.

But before going in, Qin Miao hurriedly said at the door: "Dad, don't tell Qiu Meng that I'm back yet, I'm going to give her a surprise."

There was silence on the other end of the doorbell for a while. Just when Qin Miao thought that the other party didn't hear what he said, Qiu Meng rushed out of the house in slippers.

Qin Miao was stunned for a moment, then opened his arms towards Qiu Meng who was jogging towards him.

……

There is no need to elaborate on the family gatherings and warmth here. Anyway, Qin Miao clearly felt the feeling when he was with Qiu Meng, that feeling of wanting to stick to each other directly.

After resting at home for a day, Qin Miao went to the hospital for a prenatal check-up with Qiu Meng and three elders the next day.

In addition to understanding whether Qiu Meng's current physical condition is good, they also wanted to know whether the baby in her belly is a boy or a girl. After the prenatal examination, Qin Miao and Qiu Meng naturally asked the doctor about the gender of the baby.

After hearing Qin Miao's question, the doctor who was writing the prescription shook the pen in his hand, making it look like it had run out of ink.

Then, naturally, she took out a pen with a pink shell from a pen holder that only held two pens and continued to write the list.

The other pen that was not taken out was blue.

As an F1 driver, Qin Miao's biggest feature is that his eyesight is much better than that of ordinary people, and his observation ability is naturally stronger as well.

So he naturally saw the doctor's actions, and naturally he had an idea in his mind, that it was a girl.

I don’t know why, but Qin Miao is happier now.

Little cotton-padded jacket, this is it.

Which man doesn't want a beautiful and lovely daughter?
For the next two days, Qin Miao stayed at home with Qiu Meng, spending all of his vacation in China.

However, Qin Miao is still in an F1 season after all, and being able to squeeze out nearly four days between two race days is already the limit of what Qin Miao can do.

Although Qin Miao now has an absolute advantage over Verstappen in the driver's standings, no matter how big the advantage is, it cannot withstand Qin Miao's waste.

So after staying at home for two days, Qin Miao set out again on the journey to become the world champion.

Next, there are two games left in the entire 2022 season.

They are the Brazilian Grand Prix and the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

There is not much to say about the Brazilian Grand Prix, Senna's hometown. Even when mentioning the Brazilian Grand Prix, car fans who have been watching the race for a while will involuntarily think of the racing god Senna.

The two have become indelible marks on each other.

This Grand Prix weekend is also a sprint race weekend, and the Brazilian Grand Prix is ​​also the last sprint race weekend of the 2021 season.

The Interlagos circuit is also a high-altitude track, which is undoubtedly great news for the aerodynamic efficiency of Mercedes' current racing cars.

At the same time, as the penultimate race of the season, if Qin Miao wins the race championship in this game, then Qin Miao can be crowned the world champion of the 2022 season one game in advance.

Qin Miao doesn't even have to get first place. As long as he doesn't retire from today's race and finishes in the top four in the main race, even if Qin Miao doesn't have any results in the sprint period on Saturday of the Brazilian Grand Prix, Qin Miao can still defend the 2022 world championship in advance.

After all, there is a 40-point gap between him and Verstappen.

If Verstappen wants the suspense of this race to continue until the next one, he must win the sprint race as well as the race.

And Qin Miao's result on the track in this race must be after the 5th place.

Of course, rather than fifth place, all the fans who support the Red Bull team would like to see Qin Miao retire from the race due to engine failure and sprint race on the track at this time.

The last driver, Qin Miao from Azerbaijan, was penalized five positions because he needed to replace his internal combustion engine.

Of course, this is just a beautiful vision.

Qin Miao went to Brazil alone this time.

Now the three elders in the family are extremely nervous about Qiu Meng. After Qin Miao returned home this time, he even obviously found that Qiu Meng was a lot more voluptuous than before, and was much softer when he held her.

I have to say that it is quite comfortable to hold a slightly chubby baby.

I believe that this girl must have had very good meals during this period.

Also because of the excessive tension of the three elders, Qiu Meng is now directly under house arrest by the three elders.

During the days that Qin Miao was at home, he was not even allowed to sleep in the same room with Qiu Meng.

Qin Miao was also quite helpless.

However, as the plane took off, the trivialities of life were gradually removed from Qin Miao's mind, and Qin Miao returned to the tranquility of every Grand Prix weekend.

Qin Miao is no stranger to the Interlagos circuit. After all, he had raced here last season. The only pity is that he did not win the championship here last season.

Qin Miao definitely wants to give this race a try this season, but considering his current position in the driver standings, Qin Miao must prioritize ensuring that he can win this year's world championship. Only when he can consistently enter the top five will Qin Miao consider improving his ranking or competing for a podium.

Compared with Mexico, the public security in Brazil cannot be said to be overwhelming in all aspects, but it can be said that each has its own advantages.

After all, South America is the back garden of the United States. The United States has inherited the great virtues of the United States and is even better than its predecessor in governing its neighboring countries and younger brothers.

On one side, drug dealers were rampant and beat the officers and soldiers till they cried out in pain.

On one side, the gangs are entrenched in the mountains, and Rio jumps three times just by glaring at them.

Don’t say that the second brother is the eldest brother.

However, Qin Miao is much safer in Brazil than in Mexico, mainly due to his teammate Hamilton.

Because Hamilton was awarded the title of honorary citizen of Brazil in June this year, Brazil can also be regarded as Hamilton's home ground.

Because of his love for Qin Miao, Brazil is also half his home ground. Many local gangs directly announced before the start of this game that no public security problems or riots would be allowed during the F1 Grand Prix.

To be honest, compared to the government, Qin Miao sometimes feels that the Brazilian gangs are the ones who can really take charge.

After all, during the epidemic, the Brazilian government was shut down, and it was the gangs that maintained order.

It's quite magical to say the least.

Soon, the competition week arrived, and Qin Miao stayed in a local hotel in Brazil and began recovery training.

On the one hand, maintain your physical fitness, and on the other hand, focus on the details of the track, trying not to make any mistakes on the track during qualifying and the race.

These tasks are naturally very easy for Qin Miao, and there is no psychological burden. Qin Miao can even be said to enjoy them. (End of this chapter)
