How did I become an F1 driver?

Chapter 126 Chapter 124: The End (6000 words, plus 413 more)

On the field, after Qin Miao came to the third place, Frankie in the team TR couldn't help it: "Good job Qin Miao, you are now P3. The tires are in good condition, keep pushing!"

Qin Miao didn't answer, but was ready to push forward.

But it seems that God also wants to see Qin Miao win the double championship of the main race and the sprint race.

There was another accident at T4 on the ninth lap.

When Giotto was defending, he was pouted by Ndaruwala, an Indian Red Bull youth training driver in the car behind.

Originally, the nose of the F2 was lower than the rear diffuser of the F2, which was another downhill position, and Ndaruwala turned his head around directly to Giotto.

Giotto's car also retired because it was stopped on the side of the track and stalled.

But in Qin Miao's opinion after the race, Giotto was not the most unlucky one, because he didn't get points in his position, and if he continued to run, he would improve his proficiency on the track and his understanding of the car.

After being teased, I clocked out of get off work early.

The real unlucky guy was Zhou Guanyu next to him.

Because Giotto's car was out of control, the parking position happened to block the route of Zhou Guanyu who was walking on the outside.

In order not to crash, Zhou Guanyu had no choice but to drive his car into the gravel.

Although he was not stuck in the gravel, when Zhou Guanyu came out again, his position dropped from 15th to 20th.

Zhou Guanyu's first F2 race this year was ruined here.

There is one thing to say, Zhou Guanyu is really unlucky, Qin Miao has never seen such an unlucky person.

The racing car was broken down, and the sprint race managed to improve two places, but was forced into the gravel field again.

……

Giotto's car was stopped on the track, and it was logical that the safety car was deployed again.

Qin Miao didn't have to chase the 1.7-second gap anymore. As soon as the safety car came out, Qin Miao stuck behind Drey Traz in front again.

And Qin Miao can save tires during the safety car.

The safety car took another lap, that is, at the end of lap 10, with the dome lights of the safety car going out, the race was about to restart again.

Drugovich began to press the car again, and Dretraz and Qin Miao, who were behind him, could only slow down.

Drugovich knew that there were still 18 laps before the end of the sprint race. If he ran normally, he would definitely not be able to defend Qin Miao. Therefore, in order to keep his hard-won championship podium, Drugovich Vicki slowed down the car as much as possible.

When he entered T7, he deliberately slowed down the speed of the car formation, and almost stopped on the track. From this, it can be seen how much he longs for this championship.

This state lasted until T8 exit corner, and before getting ready to start, Drugovich even grinded the tires slightly.

Halfway through the T8 corner, Drugovich accelerated sharply, and the game officially resumed.

Dretrazi, who was ranked second, was obviously slower to react, and Drugovich in front ran half a car before he reacted.

And when Drey Trazs reacted and began to accelerate, he suddenly found that Qin Miao had appeared on the right side of his rearview mirror, and was passing him at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this time, Qin Miao has already tapped the inside line, and the next turn is T9. Qin Miao, who started better than Delray Terraz, has the inside line advantage at T9, and there is a great possibility that he will be in the next turn. Go beyond Dretrazi.

However, Deliteraz obviously underestimated Qin Miao's starting ability. Even before reaching T9, Deliteraz desperately found that his advantage was being eroded inch by inch by Qin Miao.

Before even entering T9, Qin Miao had already completed a series of actions such as tapping and surpassing before T9 was 150 meters away.

In just ten laps, Qin Miao chased from the eighth start all the way to the second place.

And it is foreseeable that Drugovich, who is ranked first, may not be able to defend Qin Miao's attack in the next 18 laps.

That is to say, at this time, Qin Miao has already pre-booked the champions of the main race and the sprint race.

The only suspense left on the field at this time is whether Qin Miao's soft tire wear will allow him to continue running the entire sprint race after surpassing the eight cars.

At the same time, after Qin Miao completed the overtaking of Dere Terraz, the leader of Red Bull Racing, Horner, got up and didn't look at it.

Seeing Horner's actions, Newey and Dr. Marko, who were watching the excitement, were taken aback for a moment.

"Where are you going? The game is not over yet."

Horner shook his head: "No, the race is over, I think it is necessary to talk to the manager of this young Chinese driver now."

There are many team leaders who have the same idea as Horner.

And Qiu Meng's manager's work phone number is not difficult to find.

Although Qin Miao doesn't like to attend Ferrari's internal dinner parties very much, he has attended many dinner parties for Lawson's sake, although most of the time he eats by himself in a corner that is hard to be found. Things, but there are also people who have exchanged business cards with Qin Miao.

And Qin Miao's business card was prepared by Qiu Meng. There was no Qin Miao's phone number on it, but Qiu Meng's work phone number.

Naturally, the phone number of Qin Miao's manager, Qiu Meng, got out.

Five minutes later, Qiu Meng, who was excited about Qin Miao's overtaking in the stands above the maintenance area, found her phone rang.

Line connected.

"Hello, Ms. Qiu, I'm Horner, the team leader of Red Bull Racing."

Qiu Meng was a little surprised, but after seeing Qin Miao's performance on the court, she understood.

"Hello, Mr. Horner. What is your calling?"

"That's right. I would like to ask whether player Qin Miao intends to change his career? Our Red Bull youth training camp is looking forward to the joining of player Qin Miao.

As long as Qin Miao can join our youth training system, we promise to give Qin Miao enough F1 driving time to obtain a super driver's license. Official F1 driver.

As for the super driver's license points, I believe that with Qin Miao's performance at this time, we are not worried that he will not be able to get the super driver's license points at the end of the season.

And you should know the internal situation of our Red Bull. We are different from Ferrari, and we pay attention to a capable person. After being promoted to F1, as long as Qin Miao's performance is good enough, he can even be directly promoted to the Red Bull first team in the middle of the season. Stapan became a teammate. "

"Thank you for your attention, but you also know that this matter is not up to me to decide, and you also know that Qin Miao is on the field now, I will convey your meaning to Qin Miao, but I will discuss the specific results in Qin Miao Miao will reply you when she has a clear intention."

"Okay, bye."

In addition to the call from the team leader of Red Bull, Qiu Meng also received a call from Toto, as well as calls from the team leaders of Renault and Racing Point.

Basically all the teams that wanted to strengthen their drivers called Qiu Meng.

But Qiu Meng didn't promise them anything at the first time. It's not that the conditions they offered were not favorable. The team leader personally called you. Sincerity is enough, and the conditions they offered are also extremely generous. To be honest, Qiumeng wanted to agree for Qin Miao after seeing those preferential conditions.

But she also knew that although Qin Miao didn't say anything, he still had feelings for Ferrari. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have such a good talent. The invitation was accepted directly.

So Qiu Meng had to ask Qin Miao what he thought about this matter after the game. Besides, they still had a contract with Ferrari, and they would have to pay a liquidated damages if they changed teams.

Who will pay for this money will have to be debated for a while.

……

On the track, Qin Miao didn't know the chain reaction brought about by his excellent performance.

Still maintaining his own rhythm and chasing Drugovich ahead.

To be honest, Drugovich was more or less desperate at this time, because he found that no matter how hard he tried on the track, he could not widen the time difference with Qin Miao, and This time difference is still rapidly shortening at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At the end of the tenth lap, Qin Miao came to the position 10 seconds behind Drugovich after exiting T0.2.

Relying on the soft tires and faster exit speed, Qin Miao quickly approached Drugovich on the starting straight, and then completed a series of operations such as tapping and overtaking before entering the braking point.

As Horner said, the race was over after two safety cars and Qin Miao finished second.

With Qin Miao's ability to protect tires, he received two safety car bonuses, and he will not be short of tires for the next period of time.

With Qin Miao's demonstrated ability, it was only a matter of time before he won the first place.

Even though he had expected the current scene, after Qin Miao really surpassed Drugovich, the three commentators in the studio still laughed uncontrollably.

"Hahaha! Super beautiful!"

"This time the overtaking is too clean, it is completely crushed by strength."

"I don't think Drugovich even wants to resist."

"Qin Miao's performance today is absolutely world-class!"

"Yeah, I feel that Mr. Bi asked Qin Miao to come to F2 not because Qin Miao has no ability to drive F1, but because he needs a super driver's license that can drive F1."

"I feel that it won't be long before Mr. Bi will let Qin Miao try driving an F1 car on the track in the first training stage."

……

During the race, after Qin Miao took the lead, another yellow flag appeared on the track and another safety car was dispatched. This was because a car stalled at T2.

But all of this has no effect on Qin Miao, because Qin Miao is ahead, and from now on, he has never been surpassed again.

Also because Qin Miao finally came to his loyal P1, the on-site director finally remembered his own job. As Qin Miao gradually opened the distance between him and Drugovich behind him, the live director’s shots finally disappeared. How did it get to Qin Miao?

The next game is like returning to yesterday's main game stage.

The leader is still the red F2 car, but the driver and car behind this car have changed a lot.

However, as the racing cars at the rear fought to the brim, Qin Miao seemed to be completing the winter test.

Qin Miao did not pull too far. When the race came to the 21st lap, the gap between Qin Miao and Drugovich behind remained stable at about 4 seconds.

This gap can ensure that when Qin Miao makes some small mistakes on the track, he does not have to worry that the car behind will catch up directly.

And with Qin Miao's stability, he was driving an F2, and the car behind couldn't put any pressure on Qin Miao, so he basically wouldn't make mistakes.

If the leader Qin Miao made a mistake, the biggest possibility is not the pressure from the drivers behind, but because the leader Qin Miao was too bored and distracted.

There was nothing to talk about in the following races. There was no safety car, and Qin Miao was about to lead the race all the way to the end, setting many new records that were difficult to break.

He won the double championship of the main race and the sprint race for the first time on the F2 field, and as a Chinese, he also won the fastest lap of the sprint race.

To sum up Qin Miao's performance yesterday and today: "Invincible."

In the two-day race, Qin Miao overtook a total of twelve cars, without being overtaken once. Among them, Qin Miao's good brother Zhou Guanyu was overtaken twice by him, and both of them were overtaken in the main race.

To be honest, Qin Miao ran a bit boring in the last few laps just like yesterday's race.

Fortunately, after the sprint race was over, Qin Miao knew that her dedication and efforts were not in vain when she saw the crew members and the team leader Luo Xin who were lying on the guardrail with red ears and cheering for her.

Crossing the finish line under the waving checkered flag, Qin Miao once again made history.

To be honest, after winning the championship again this time, Qin Miao was much less excited than yesterday.

After all, you will be very happy to win the first time on a track, but the excitement and happiness will be halved after the second time, not to mention that the two championships still appeared within two days, the joy of winning the championship It is reduced again and again.

And Qin Miao also knows that the sprint race is actually for those drivers who are capable but are unlucky to be in the back row.

It can be seen from the fact that there are only five sets of dry tires in the F2 race. Drivers have to make a choice between the main race and the sprint race. If they focus on the race, they have to use more tires in the qualifying stage, sprint Race can only use the old hard tires.

And if you focus on the sprint race and want to get results in the sprint race, then you have to save a new set of hard tires for the sprint race in the race and qualifying stages.

And the people who formulated this competition system did not expect that there would be a ruthless person who can run 2 laps on the Red Bull Ring with a set of soft tires in this year's F29 arena.

To be honest, even Luo Xin, the leader of Qin Miao's team, and Qin Miao's crew did not expect that Qin Miao could actually win the sprint race with a set of soft tires.

And the three commentators in the five-star sports had already guessed the current scene when Qin Miao got the leading position and started to lead, so they were already excited. I was so excited to see Qin Miao win the championship in the main competition.

Qin Miao was planning to park the car in the middle of the track on the return lap just like yesterday, but Franky informed Qin Miao when Qin Miao was doing the return lap that the awarding position for today's sprint race is Under the normal podium, the reason for accepting the award on the track yesterday was that the sponsor billboards under the podium were not arranged. Today, because of the F1 race, the billboards have been arranged in advance.

Qin Miao was ready to enter from the pit entrance.

But on the return lap, Qin Miao found Zhou Guanyu's yellow car.

After getting closer, Zhou Guanyu also found Qin Miao.

Zhou Guanyu extended a hand from the monocoque to Qin Miao.

After getting along for such a long time, the two have cultivated some tacit understanding. As soon as Zhou Guanyu spread his hands, Qin Miao knew that he wanted to ask himself which place he won in this sprint competition.

Qin Miao stretched out his hand and made a gesture of one. Zhou Guanyu was obviously stunned for a while. Obviously, he didn't expect that Qin Miao, who started eighth, could really catch up from eighth to first with a set of soft tires.

This buddy is really here for F2 fried fish.

But this guy is his buddy after all, so after knowing that Qin Miao won the first place, Zhou Guanyu still showed his thumb to Qin Miao: "You are awesome!"

Going back to the entrance of the maintenance area, a green carpet has been laid here, and the standing signs representing the first, second and third place are erected on top of the carpet.

Qin Miao found her 1ts stand and parked her car in front of the stand.

Originally, when Qin Miao won the first place yesterday, he didn't celebrate because of some social fears. Now the joy in his heart was lost by half, and he didn't celebrate even after getting off the car. He just took off his helmet and Go to the preparation table.

Even Qin Miao, the photographer who took pictures of Qin Miao's face with a camera, didn't pay much attention.

After taking off his equipment, Qin Miao shook hands with the second and third drivers, patted their shoulders, encouraged each other, and then went for an interview.

The one who came to interview Qin Miao today was a blonde hostess.

"Congratulations, Qin, your performance today is really amazing, everyone is amazed by your performance today, so from the eighth start all the way to the first and won the championship again, what did you encounter in this process Is it difficult?"

difficulty?To be honest, Qin Miao basically didn't feel how difficult it was at that time. Would it be difficult for you to fry fish in low-end games?
For Qin Miao, this race was basically a fish fry, no matter whether it was overtaking or what, it basically couldn't give him any pressure.

During the whole race, the only thing that made him use his brain was the tire wear problem of the car, but with the appearance of the safety car, this problem was also solved.

After that, Qin Miao ran a long-distance test alone, which was very boring.

But he can't say in the interview that he was a little bit interesting when he was stuck in traffic in the early stage, and then he was so bored that he wanted to leave work early, right?

So Qin Miao bit the bullet and thought for a while and then said: "I encountered a lot of difficulties in the first two laps of the start. At that time, the wear of the tires exceeded our expectations. I was still a little worried at the time, and I had to make a pit stop. , fortunately, there were two safety cars to relieve my urgent need..."

Qin Miao just bit the bullet and said something about Che Zhilu, which seemed to be the same thing, but in fact it was the same thing.

The host who watched Qin Miao's interview yesterday knew that Qin Miao was a difficult interviewee, so he didn't ask too tricky questions.

Another question was asked about Qin Miao's specific thoughts when he overtook two cars in a row at the beginning stage. After Qin Miao answered, the interview with Qin Miao, the champion, was over.

After that, the host began to interview the No.2 driver and the No.3 driver.

Qin Miao didn't listen to their interview carefully, packed up her things, and waited to go on stage to receive the award.

It was still the four blocks from yesterday, but this time they were placed on the carpet at the entrance of the maintenance area.

Franky was not late this time, he was already waiting outside when Qin Miao was interviewed.

After the interview was over and all three drivers stood on the podium, he also took the position of the track engineer who belonged to the champion driver.

The national anthem was played again, and Qin Miao was already a little familiar with the road.

Although once a day is really too much, Qin Miao still sang the song to the tune of the national anthem earnestly. This is a Chinese person's respect for the national anthem of his country.

After the national anthem was over, Qin Miao picked up his sprint championship trophy amidst the host's words, and kept his movements still for a second under the lens of the on-site photographer, which can be regarded as taking a photo.

Then the celebratory music sounded, and the three drivers and a team engineer started to celebrate with the champagne in front of them.

After the celebration, I touched the bottle with the other two drivers and my own track engineer Franky, and this simple celebration came to an end.

Qin Miao handed her champagne to Sui Wentao, Steve, and Alvin who came to watch the fun.

Although it seems that these three people have no sense of presence during the race, the stability of the car during the race is also provided by Qin Miao's skills.

But these three buddies provided the car tuning and pre-competition inspections, and Qin Miao spent more time with the three of them than with Franky during the preparation stage.

Whether it is champagne or prize money, my first main race championship is of great significance to me, so it is understandable that I want to collect it.

But it's different now, rare things are more expensive, and Qin Miao gave away the champagne for the second time.

The three of them naturally did not refuse the champagne Qin Miao handed over, and they all took a big sip of each other with a smile.

Afterwards, Qin Miao returned to the cabinet where he put his helmet with his sprint championship trophy, and removed his equipment neatly.

The score increase of the players in this sprint race is as follows:

1ts. Qin Miao: +17 points (sprint champion +15, fastest lap +2)

2ts. Drugovich +12
3ts. Dretrazi +10
4ts. Tiktum +8
5ts. Longard +6
6ts. Panasonic +4
7ts. Mick Schumacher +2
8ts. Aitken +1
Among them, Zhou Guanyu started at No.17 and finally finished at No.14. If there was no car accident, Zhou Guanyu might be able to enter the top ten. If he works harder, it is not impossible to break into the top eight and get a point.
