How did I become an F1 driver?

Chapter 169 Chapter 167: Imola pre-match meeting

After arguing for a while, Qin Miao hurried back to the car home, put away the Pirelli championship cap that had been wet by Hamilton, and then put on a new set of Mercedes uniforms. After finishing all this, Qin Miao took I took Alisa, the press officer of my team, to accept a routine post-match interview.

The interview questions were easy to answer, and with Alisa on the side to guide, Qin Miao didn't have to worry about saying the wrong thing. After answering a few basic questions, the interview process was over.

Although it was already early morning in China at this time, Qin Miao knew that her mother was definitely not asleep at this time, so when the interview was over and she was walking to the P room, Qin Miao called her mother to announce the good news.

Although my mother did not show any overly excited emotions during the communication with Qin Miao, Qin Miao could hear a trembling from her mother's words. Presumably at this time, after seeing her grades, her mother It will be exciting too.

But in fact, the trembling in Qin Miao's mother's words was just because she accidentally poured too much hot water when soaking her feet, and it was scalding...

Back at the car home, Qin Miao also called Qiumeng and shared with his girlfriend the joy of getting good grades.

After reporting with the two most important women in his life, Qin Miao packed her things and came out of the car home.

The performance of Mercedes tonight is impressive enough. Just now Toto has said in the Mercedes work group that there will be a dinner later. After all the Mercedes staff in Bahrain have completed the tasks at hand today You can go to participate.

Those who don't want to go will also have corresponding bonuses.

When Qin Miao first knew that this party was voluntary, she hesitated to go, but was directly called by Toto, who had already figured out Qin Miao's character, and asked to participate.

In the end, Qin Miao had no choice but to succumb to Toto's authority.

After leaving the paddock, Qin Miao and Barber got into the rented car and went to the venue of today's dinner.

On the way, Qin Miao took a look at the completion of his system tasks.

Qin Miao completed the first task very well. He successfully obtained points in the first grand prix of his career. He won a team free attribute point and also obtained 16 points that can be drawn.

After seeing these rewards, Qin Miao knew that the 1 lottery points corresponded to the points she had obtained on the field.

At the same time, the new lottery module is also unlocked, but I just don't know what items can be drawn.

Qin Miao opened this module curiously and took a look. 16 points can be drawn 16 times, and unlike the colored lottery, the highlight of this lottery is that there is a large amount of money, so naturally there is no special reward for ten consecutive rounds.

Anyway, the system itself gave 16 draw points, so Qin Miao had a 16 consecutive draw.

Different from the colored lottery system, this lottery is to line up sixteen boxes in front of Qin Miao, and then open them all at once.

Most of them have a white background, only one has a green background.

This green thing is also a very common thing, just a key.

Qin Miao knew the origin of the key when she turned her attention away.

This is the key to a container.

To be precise, an unclaimed container key that was left in the container loading area of ​​the port.

No one knew exactly what was inside, and no one knew where its owner had gone. After the time limit stipulated in the contract was not taken away, the container became the property of the container company.

Then it was taken out for sale, and now it has fallen into Qin Miao's hands.

Qin Miao is opening a blind box to open a bigger blind box.

Seeing the description of this thing, Qin Miao immediately became interested. Whether it is opened by himself or given to his friends, it is very good.

Except for this item, other white items can only be regarded as ordinary commodities, such as a dozen Balenciaga pantyhose, two boxes of magic claws, a 3090 graphics card, a set of Hanfu for couples, a latest Huawei mobile phone, An iPhone, a $500 steam balance redemption card...

Qin Miao smacked her mouth. These things don't look expensive, but they are still useful.

After reading the rewards given in mission one, Qin Miao glanced at mission two.

Qin Miao didn't think she performed well enough to complete that task one day.

And the fact is true, although Qin Miao's defense is really impressive, but due to the lack of audience votes in this game, the official directly canceled this harmless honor.

So Qin Miao only got 15 points and a bonus of 16 US dollars from the team after the race, and some were not so much system rewards, but rather messy little gifts from fans to Qin Miao.

During the dinner, Qin Miao said hello to Hamilton and Toto, then got some junk food like fried chicken and Coca-Cola on the plate, and ran to eat it.

Now the team has arranged for Barber to control Qin Miao's eating habits. Qin Miao hasn't eaten these things for a long time, and now, while Barber is chatting with his familiar colleagues, Qin Miao just happens to eat some secretly.

Qin Miao ate a delicious meal in the corner without being disturbed.

After saying hello to Toto, Qin Miao was ready to leave.

Toto was a little surprised to see that Qin Miao was leaving so early: "There will be a gathering that is not open to the public later, I think you still need to attend these gatherings, you can meet many different people at these meetings .”

"Yes, Qin, getting acquainted with some important people is of great benefit to your future." Hamilton on the side also chimed in.

But Qin Miao shrugged and said, "Forget it, I don't like such occasions very much. Compared to that, I would rather go home and watch a movie with my girlfriend."

Seeing Qin Miao like this, Toto didn't persuade him anymore, and from Qin Miao's contract, Toto had already seen what kind of person Qin Miao was, so he just said "Be careful on the way back" and let him Qin Miao left.

After nodding to Hamilton again, Qin Miao left Bahrain.

Anyway, Qin Miao is now an indispensable member of the Mercedes-Benz team. Even if he doesn't use Toto's private jet, after knowing that Qin Miao is going back to the UK, there will still be someone on the Mercedes-Benz team to help Qin Miao arrange itinerary.

Although it's a pity that I can't get on Toto's private jet, the first-class cabin of a business jet is still quite comfortable.

By the time Qin Miao returned home, it was already past 5 o'clock in the morning of the next day.

After winning the F2 race, Qin Miao usually has extra spare time and energy to do things that both of them like to do with his girlfriend when he returns home.

After finishing the race, Qin Miao hurried back home. Now Qin Miao didn't want to do other things anymore, she just wanted to sleep well at home.

Running an F1 race is really tiring, even Qin Miao can't bear it after running with a physical strength score of 99.

Of course, the main reason for this is that Qin Miao flew for so long to catch the plane.

In short, Qin Miao returned to the haven of his soul the day after the game and had a three-day rest.

For the past three days, Qin Miao has never even touched a car, not to mention exercising.

After three days of rest, Qin Miao started to pick up fitness and practice on the feel of racing again.

The second race this year will be held in April, and there will be a three-week break in between. During this period, Qin Miao basically doesn't travel far, just going back and forth between her home and the team.

In the morning for physical training, in the afternoon, Totola went to the factory to run simulator data to practice driving skills, and discussed with various departments the upgrade plan of the car and the tuning settings for the upcoming Imola Grand Prix.

Moreover, the possibility of rain on this track is very high, so Qin Miao not only continued to hone his skills during this period, but also frantically practiced the rain battle on the Imola track on the simulator.

This monotonous and repetitive life continued until Wednesday 4 April, the day before the start of the Imola Grand Prix.

It is worth mentioning that there were quite a few small episodes during this period.

The first one is that Qiu Meng's work phone started ringing frequently again, most of them were brands that wanted Qin Miao to endorse, both domestic and foreign.

There are also invitation calls that want to invite Qin Miao to participate in some activities and become a guest on the spot. In the entertainment circle, it is a trick, and how much money is paid for participating in an event.

And this time is different from the past, most of the Party A who called Qiumeng really wanted to cooperate with Qin Miao.

Qiu Meng screened some by herself, and then asked the evaluation team of the Mercedes-Benz team to screen some, and finally Qin Miao had three more endorsements.

Qin Miao has no other requirements in terms of endorsement. It doesn't matter if you have a lot of money. The most important thing is to have few things.

In addition to this incident, Boss Zhou also came to Brackley.

Boss Zhou saw Qin Miao's performance so well on the field, and watching the game on TV could no longer satisfy him. Although the current environment is not good, he still flew directly to the UK by private jet, and then found Qin Miao through the address.

Qin Miao naturally exchanged pleasantries with the other party, and kept the other party at home for a meal.

Boss Zhou left after that. Although the other party's main purpose was to watch Qin Miao play, he still has a certain business in the UK.

On the one hand, they are all here, so they must go and have a look. On the other hand, Boss Zhou has also seen that Qin Miao is really busy these days, staying at Qin Miao's house is suspected of being a light bulb for the young couple. , and Qin Miao couldn't concentrate on training if he was there.

So after agreeing to meet in Italy, Boss Zhou left.

The third one is the little things in Qin Miao's book, they were mailed as gifts just as Qin Miao guessed.

It's just that they were sent to the Meiben headquarters, and then the front desk staff at the headquarters handed over these gifts to Qin Miao.

After that, there is nothing to say, continue to work and live.

After these small episodes, Qin Miao took the lead in coming to the venue of the second race of this year: Imola, Italy.

For this race, Qin Miao came to the track one day earlier than before.

The main reason is that Qin Miao always felt a little urgent when he came to the track at a certain point in the past, and there was not enough time. Now that he arrived at the track one day earlier, Qin Miao also had more time to prepare and rest.

On Wednesday, I mainly rested in the hotel, and took Qiumeng to stroll around the Imola track, and invited Leclerc to have a meal together, and the day of Wednesday passed like this.

On Thursday, after completing her daily training in the morning, Qin Miao went to the small black room of the FIA.

Although Qin Miao's defense in the last Bahrain Grand Prix did not violate the rules, the behavior of pushing Verstappen out of the track was suspected of dangerous driving, so Qin Miao was summoned to have a meeting, and FIA officials conducted an investigation on Qin Miao A wave of ideological education.

But the time for this ideological education is not difficult.

In the afternoon, Qin Miao came to the pre-match conference room prepared by the FIA ​​for the drivers.

This is held before every game.

Qin Miao came quite early this time, so there was only one Alonso in the conference room after arriving here.

When Brother Tou saw Qin Miao coming in, he nodded to Qin Miao, as if he had greeted him: "Qin, good afternoon."

"Good afternoon." Qin Miao responded with a nod, shook hands with Brother Tou, and patted each other on the shoulder.

This is basically how every paddock staff and riders shake hands and say hello.

After shaking hands, Qin Miao sat down next to Brother Tou.

After Qin Miao sat down, Brother Tou looked at Qin Miao and said, "I watched the replay of the Bahrain game, and I have to say that your defense is really eye-catching."

"Really? Haha, I think I still have a lot of room for improvement." Qin Miao said modestly.

Alonso has met many Chinese people, and he is already familiar with the humility engraved in the bones of Chinese people, although Qin Miao at this time seems to be trying to cover up.

But Alonso didn't care. Instead, he adjusted his sitting posture, faced Qin Miao and asked curiously: "I have carefully studied your defense against Verstappen. You gave Verstappen your position twice. In the operation, the space given to Verstappen is very limited every time, but it will not violate the FIA's defensive rules. How do you define and judge whether your actions are compliant on the field?"

Qin Miao is not too surprised by Alonso's problem. He knows that the defensive ability on the field is completely accumulated by experience and accumulation. If he wants to improve his ability, he is not ashamed to ask his subordinates to learn from drivers who are more capable than himself. A relatively simple and easy way.

Thinking of this, Qin Miao was still a little excited. After all, this was the recognition of a top driver.

As for Alonso's question, Qin Miao was not stingy, and there was nothing to be stingy about. Qin Miao said truthfully, "I usually rely on my feelings."

This is really not Qin Miao acting aggressive in front of Alonso, his grasp of defensive measures on the track is really what he said.

And Brother Tou is also very talented. Maybe for ordinary people, Qin Miao's answer is completely perfunctory, but for a driver like Brother Tou, sometimes you rely on the feeling of the car in racing, and some people even rely on It feels like driving a car is a lot faster than they're scripted to drive it.
