How did I become an F1 driver?

Chapter 577 561: Surprise

Mercedes has been paying close attention to Qin Miao who is fighting with Verstappen on the track.

Seeing that Qin Miao tried hard throughout the race but was ultimately defeated by Verstappen's attack, Franky was ready to open the team TR to comfort Qin Miao.

But I didn’t expect Qin Miao to open the team TR on his own initiative and said these words right at the beginning.

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

After a while, Franchi said: "We will make this suggestion to the FIA."

The reason why Qin Miao has this problem.

It was because after Qin Miao was overtaken by Verstappen, the pressure on him was relieved and he had time to think about why Verstappen had such a fast acceleration.

Qin Miao soon realized why he suddenly felt that Verstappen had less pressure on him while he was defending him. Now he thought that Verstappen was probably secretly charging his car at that time.

Naturally, Qin Miao also hoped that there would be an indicator light to let him know when Verstappen was secretly charging.

"Sixth brother!" Qin Miao couldn't help but curse.

But at this moment, Franky suddenly interrupted and said, "Hamilton is 3 seconds behind you."

Although it wasn't said explicitly, the meaning was clear... The old man is coming, so please be careful of your position.

If it were true that Qin Miao was overtaken by Verstappen on the track, everyone in the Mercedes team would be frustrated, but no one would be surprised.

If Qin Miao was overtaken by Hamilton on the track, not only the Mercedes team staff but also many car fans would feel surprised.

Because many people know that Qin Miao is now a supermodel. His ability to protect tires makes him basically invincible in the team's intra-team competition.

If your car's performance is not as good as that of the other team's drivers, no matter how hard you try, it is unlikely that you will be able to outperform them on the track.

However, the performance of the car you and your teammate drive is the same, so Qin Miao, with the advantage of tire protection, can 100% beat his teammate.

Qin Miao's ability to protect his tires is also the main reason why the Red Bull car can pose a threat to Verstappen on the track despite its strong performance.

It is worth mentioning that the FIA ​​also knows that if Qin Miao’s ability is not curbed and allowed to develop, Qin Miao only needs to join a team with slightly more competitive cars in the future, and he can lead the team to take off directly by himself.

If he joins a team that has the ability to compete for the championship, that would be even more amazing. He wouldn't even have to watch any of the races this season. As long as there are no problems with Qin Miao's car and there are not a large number of safety cars or red flags on the track, Qin Miao will definitely win the championship easily every Grand Prix weekend.

What? Is Mercedes no longer a championship contender this season?
TMD, without Qin Miao's ability to protect the tire, the old man could be left 0.2 seconds behind by Verstappen in a single lap. What kind of championship team is this?
And putting all this aside, Qin Miao himself is recognized as one of the top drivers in the paddock.

So since Qin Miao won the last race, the FIA ​​and Pirelli began discussing how to restrict Qin Miao.

Maybe Qin Miao and the Mercedes team are thinking about how to win.

But what the FIA ​​is thinking about is how to make the race more interesting.

The two sides' positions are naturally different, and they naturally cannot stand one team dominating the market.

Back to the topic, although Hamilton has caught up with Qin Miao, Qin Miao on the track was not overtaken by the old man.

After all, there were only a few laps left before the end of the race. Even if the old man caught up with Qin Miao in the DRS zone before the end of the race, he would not have enough time to fully charge his car and attack Qin Miao.

Don’t underestimate his defensive ability just because Qin Miao didn’t defend Verstappen on the track in recent races!

Finally, the game is over.

Verstappen crossed the finish line 2.2 seconds ahead of Qin Miao.

Mercedes drivers Qin Miao and Hamilton followed closely behind.

Then came Alonso, Leclerc and Sainz.

After the game.

Verstappen is naturally the happiest person.

After all, he regained the championship in this race, and it was at a crucial moment in the fight for the world championship. Any driver in Verstappen's position would not be too calm at this time.

At this time, Pan Zi was also celebrating wildly in the team TR, thanking the team for their efforts and help.

At the same time, the Red Bull team was also filled with laughter and joy, with everyone hugging and high-fiving each other to celebrate.

As for Qin Miao...

After crossing the finish line, Qin Miao didn't say anything.

I really didn't say anything, no complaints, and no thanks to the team.

What could he say?

Did Qin Miao perform badly in today's game? Anyone who has watched this game would not think so.

Among the 19 drivers in the entire paddock, Qin Miao was probably the only one who could block Verstappen on the track for so long despite the obvious disadvantage in car performance.

But losing is losing, and the losers are not qualified to enjoy flowers and applause at this time. All they can get is sympathy and ridicule.

In some matches, the losers were almost deprived of their right to breathe by their fans.

Qin Miao didn't complain to his colleagues in the team.

This season is indeed Red Bull's season. With Newey in charge, Red Bull does have a great advantage in aerodynamics.

Qin Miao admitted defeat in terms of racing performance.

As for Hamilton behind Qin Miao...

This season the old man is basically preparing to just catch some fish in one season and then perform again next season.

It’s not that there’s something wrong with the old man’s mind, it’s just that the track environment at that time doesn’t allow the old man to perform well.

His current condition is a bit like how Duan Qinmiao felt on the track for a period of time last season.

My lap time was very impressive, but on the track, I was nowhere in sight.

The slow train can't catch up, and the fast train can't keep up. It's in an extremely awkward position.
Finally, after the race, the drivers' rankings and scores are as follows:
P1: Verstappen +26 (fastest lap)
P2: Qin Miao +18
P3: Hamilton +15
P4: Alonso +12
P5: Leclerc +10
P6: Sainz +8
P7: Perez +6
P8: Albon +4
P9: O'Connell +2
P10: Stroll +1
There is nothing much to say about Verstappen's results. The performance of the car and the driver's strength are all online, coupled with Verstappen's adaptability on the track during the race.

Verstappen's performance in this race was perfect. After doing everything well, it was no surprise that Verstappen, who had such a fast car, won the championship.

It can be said that today's race championship is more valuable than most of the Grand Prix championships in Verstappen's racing career.

As for Qin Miao.

All I can say is that Sanshui tried his best.

He did everything he could on the track, but the gap in car performance was too big.

The old man caught a fish in a game and got the points he deserved. He didn't feel any pressure and clocked out on time.

The first brother was in a similar condition to the old man. The only difference might be that he had fought with Qin Miao for several rounds on the track.

At least the boss's race today was not as boring as the old man's. Leclerc's race was more worth talking about than the previous few people.

In today's race, Lao Si started from the eleventh position.

Being able to defeat his teammates and come in fifth place in such an unfavorable starting environment was not only because the fourth driver was in good shape in today's race, but also because Ferrari's strategy team did not make any mistakes in the race.

It is worth mentioning that after the race, when Qin Miao and Leclerc were chatting in the group, Leclerc said to Qin Miao and Zhou Guanyu very excitedly: "I never thought that a correct decision made by the team strategy group could bring such a big advantage! The team strategy group is so comfortable without making any mistakes. 】

It seems that this unfortunate child has never eaten any fine bran.

However, after this race, Ferrari's strategy team still needs to be criticized.

Although Leclerc's strategy team used a yellow, white and one-stop to allow the two Ferrari drivers to move up a lot of positions on the track, they eventually finished in a good position that neither of them had expected.

However, the reason why Leclerc started in such a late position was all thanks to the Ferrari strategy team's incredible pit stop strategy in Q2 of qualifying.

A flaw cannot be concealed by virtue, and one must still be criticized.

If Qin Miao's identity had not yet changed from a Mercedes driver, he would probably have cursed as well.

After all, he doesn't want Ferrari's strategy team to betray him like they did to Leclerc after he goes to Ferrari.

There is nothing much to say about Perez at the back, the stopwatch for the big move has already started.

How fast the second hand moves will depend on how Perez performs in recent games.

Now it all depends on when Perez will be kicked out by the Red Bull team.

Of course, the person who should be mentioned most when talking about today's race is Albon from the Williams team.

In contrast to his teammate's retirement, Albon drove the DRS train on the track, and the drivers stuck behind him were tortured to death by Albon's DRS train and could not move.

And Albon's little train ran for the entire race.

In the end, Albon relied on his superb driving skills to get eighth place in today's race.

It is a real ranking achieved by defeating a group of cars with better performance than its own.

Therefore, after the race, Albon was voted by the audience as the best driver of today's race.

To be honest, if Qin Miao also had the right to vote, he would also vote for Albon. After all, Albon's performance in today's game was indeed remarkable.

At the same time, after Verstappen crossed the finish line, the barrage of comments also started to come alive.

[Someone, come and capture Brother Bing, Brother Fei and Brother Ran from Five Star Sports and execute them immediately]

[“Qin Miao has a high probability of winning the championship”]

【《Nothing is difficult》】

[A good race championship was ruined by these three bastards]

【Pity】

[Qin Miao has a real chance of winning this game]

[Is Mercedes any good? Even with a driver as amazing as Qin Miao, they still can't win a race. Isn't the performance of your car too bad? ]

[Mercedes lost but Qin Miao did not]

……

After crossing the finish line, Qin Miao waved to the audience and parked his car back in the maintenance area.

After parking his car in the second position, Qin Miao just climbed out of the car and saw Verstappen make a somersault and rush directly into the crowd of Red Bull team.

Celebrating today's victory with abandon.

At this time, Hamilton walked to Qin Miao's side.

After a brief handshake and hug with Qin Miao, Hamilton followed Qin Miao's gaze to look at Verstappen who was celebrating in the crowd.

"I know this feeling is very uncomfortable." The old man wanted to comfort Qin Miao.

After all, he was watching Qin Miao's performance from behind the whole time, and he knew how difficult it was for Qin Miao to defend against Verstappen in today's game.

But Qin Miao said: "Lewis, you think too much, I am not actually uncomfortable now."

Hamilton was stunned: "Then what are you looking at?"

Qin Miao explained; "I seemed to see my daughter."

Old man:?
Qin Miao's feeling was not wrong. Qiu Meng, who had just returned home last weekend, appeared in the crowd again with her child.

However, the crowd environment at this time was complicated after all, so Qiu Meng did not take Xiao Muqiu too close to the front, but watched him from a distance from behind.

Qin Miao waved at them.

Qiu Meng also took Xiao Muqiu's hand and waved at Qin Miao.

Qin Miao also noticed that after his daughter saw him, she gave him a very cute smile.

Qin Miao really didn't know when his wife came to Canada.

But for some reason, the moment he saw the little guy, Qin Miao's inner annoyance and resentment towards the team instantly disappeared.

After walking over to hug Franky and the others, thanking them for their efforts during this Grand Prix weekend, and chatting with Toto for a few words, Qiu Meng also walked to the guardrail with the child.

The main reason was that Mercedes-Benz noticed Qiu Meng's arrival and made way for Qin Miao's daughter.

Although Qin Miao was wearing a fire-proof racing suit, he was literally covered in sweat after running for more than an hour.

So Qin Miao reached out and held little Muchu's hand and then let go.

Instead, the little girl seemed a little reluctant and stretched out one hand towards Qin Miao, as if she wanted Qin Miao to hug her or something.

Qin Miao had no choice as he was still working.

However, Qin Miao was a little surprised, because he was wearing a helmet and just opened the goggles, but the little guy could actually recognize him in this situation.

Qin Miao was really surprised by this.

Afterwards, the old man came over and greeted Xiao Muchu, who also responded enthusiastically: "Yeah!"

As for why in the old man's opinion, Xiao Muchu's "Yeah!" was considered a warm greeting?

Then don't ask me, just let me know what I think. (End of this chapter)
