How did I become an F1 driver?
Chapter 598: Wild Dogs on the Roadside
After making sure they could have fun on the Silverstone circuit for a while, Zhou Guanyu and Leclerc didn't even wait at home after getting up. After washing up and having breakfast, the three of them rushed to the Silverstone circuit in a hurry.
Qin Miao and Leclerc naturally drove their own new cars, while Zhou Guanyu drove Qin Miao's AMG GT Black Warrior.
Zhou Guanyu actually wanted to drive a Josko, but there was no way because the car had to be given to the owner for the first time on the track, and the only spare car in Qin Miao's family was a Black Samurai, so Zhou Guanyu had no choice.
It just so happened that Zhou Guanyu was also curious about how AMG cars felt.
In addition, as a driver for the Alfa Romeo team, it is not easy for Zhou Guanyu to drive cars of other brands in his daily life.
Now you have an opportunity to go to the track for free, and you don’t have to worry about being photographed when you go to the track, because this is a semi-private occasion, so you can naturally drive other brands of cars with confidence.
Zhou Guanyu naturally liberated his nature wantonly.
After the three of them arrived at the track in advance, they came to the lounge of Silverstone Circuit with ease.
As F1 drivers, they should not be too familiar with this track.
Qin Miao did not go to Mercedes-Benz to join in the fun. If he took advantage of others, he should just enjoy it on his own. It would be a bit tactless to disturb others at work.
The three of them were chatting in the lounge, but even though they found playing cards in the lounge, none of them mentioned continuing to play cards.
They waited until noon, and after a simple lunch at the Silverstone Circuit, the three of them couldn't wait to get to their car.
Zhou Guanyu drove Qin Miao's AMG GT directly onto the track.
Leclerc was checking the car's manual on the spot, while Qin Miao went to the P room where the people from Mercedes-Benz's testing department were, said hello, and gave them some water and other things.
After all, I came here to use their track for free, so I had to be polite no matter what.
After saying hello to them, Qin Miao returned to his car.
At this time, Qin Miao saw Leclerc sticking his butt out and loading things into his car.
Qin Miao curiously moved closer and found that Leclerc had fixed a Go Pro on the passenger seat's headrest.
This is the most cost-effective sports camera on the market.
It can be used whether going up the mountain or down the sea, and is extremely versatile.
"What's the point of tying this thing?" Qin Miao asked curiously.
Leclerc replied: "It's the first time I drive this car on the track, I have to remember it."
"I have another one here, do you want to use it?"
Looking at the sports camera that Leclerc took out from the box in the front trunk, Qin Miao thought about it and installed one on the passenger seat of his own racing car.
It's not shameful to show off.
After the installation, Leclerc also explained to Qin Miao the starting process and precautions of the racing car. He returned to his car only after making sure that Qin Miao understood everything.
After fixing the camera and making sure it was turned on, Leclerc's voice came from Qin Miao's phone: "Radio test."
Neither of them had a walkie-talkie, so they just called each other on their cell phones and communicated over the phone.
Qin Miao:......
Are you still playing?
How childish!
"Radio test, inaudible, inaudible, repeat, inaudible, Over."
“Shut the ***”
After a curse and a laugh, Leclerc released the handbrake of his Koenigsegg and slowly drove the car out of the parking space and headed towards the track.
Qin Miao followed closely behind.
Qin Miao couldn't help but feel a little excited at this time.
He has basically raced on all the famous race tracks in the world, but he was either driving an F2 or an F1 car.
Although Formula One cars are fast, because they require higher downforce, the overall resistance of Formula One cars when driving at high speeds is higher than that of normal civilian supercars.
Also because of the FIA's slogan of energy conservation and emission reduction, the engine power of formula racing cars is restricted, and a limit is set on the number of F1 racing car engines that can be used, so that the team cannot show off its power on the track.
Therefore, the top speed of an F1 car is only 350 or 360 at most. Although it is possible to go further, it must be done on certain tracks, with specific adjustments and environments.
But what is certain is that in this era of ground effect racing, no car can exceed a top speed of 370 kilometers per hour.
W14 doesn't work either.
However, the Koenigsegg Josko under Qin Miao's butt at this time can really run at a final speed of more than 400 and close to 500 if the length of the track allows.
Qin Miao was naturally very curious about this speed range that he had never experienced before.
However, in order to have a good time driving on the track, Qin Miao added a BUFF to his car.
[Calm the Machine Soul (Blue)] was used. At the same time, because of his own [God of Cars] skill, Qin Miao could feel the same as the car when he sat in the driving position of the car. Every time the engine turned, Qin Miao could clearly feel the status of the car.
After making sure that the car was in good condition, Qin Miao followed Leclerc onto the track.
As soon as they entered the Silverstone Circuit, Leclerc and Qin Miao stepped on the accelerator and started accelerating almost at the same time.
Qin Miao quickly overtook Leclerc on the track.
This is inevitable. Qin Miao does not need to know too much about the limit of this car. Basically, Qin Miao knows where the limit of this car is as soon as he gets started. If he wants to use his Koenigsegg Josko to reach the maximum speed that this car can run on this track, all Qin Miao needs to do is find the braking point on the track.
Leclerc not only needs to understand the limits of this car, but also needs to be familiar with his Josko.
Since it takes a long time to learn, it is naturally impossible to be as unrestrained as Qin Miao.
After all, it's worth millions of dollars. No matter how rich Leclerc is, he wouldn't dare to play with it.
However, after seeing Qin Miao's lightning speed on the track, Leclerc still complained: "This is a new car. How dare you drive like this? Aren't you afraid of a crash?"
Qin Miao did not explain, but just brought the phone to his mouth and calmly uttered one word: "Dish!"
"Fuck you!"
After hearing this, Leclerc couldn't stand it anymore. What training exercises? No need!
Just follow Qin Miao's pace.
Although Leclerc is not able to take the lead now, after all, he is not familiar with the limits of this car, but Qin Miao is familiar with it.
Following Qin Miao and watching his movements, he simply copied what Kakashi did. This operation was not difficult for Leclerc.
Although Zhou Guanyu entered the track almost five minutes earlier than Qin Miao and Leclerc.
However, compared with the Koenigsegg Josko, the AMG GT is far inferior in terms of cornering grip, traction out of corners, and engine power.
So Zhou Guanyu was quickly crushed by Qin Miao and Leclerc from behind.
Seeing the two Koenigsegg Josko cars behind him that were much shorter than his own car, Zhou Guanyu actually wanted to try to defend them.
What? Is it not allowed for Arrow's second driver to have a somewhat unrealistic dream?
But the reality on the track was that Qin Miao and Leclerc were like prototype cars supercharging the GT3 class on the Le Mans track, and they easily outclassed Zhou Guanyu's AMG GT on the straights.
"Oh my god!" Zhou Guanyu couldn't help but exclaimed "Oh my god" as he watched the racing car passing by his own car with a strong wind pressure.
Although Qin Miao and Leclerc did not establish a telephone connection with Zhou Guanyu, this did not prevent Qin Miao from mocking Zhou Guanyu: "Look, the car that was just overtaken, does it look like a stray dog on the side of the road?"
"Hiss!" Leclerc took a breath and said, "Don't say it. Don't say it!"
"Hahaha~ It's a good thing Zhou Guanyu couldn't hear us. If he had, he would have torpedoed us both next time we overtook his car on the track."
……
After running five or six laps on the track, Qin Miao drove the car into the P room area of the Silverstone Circuit.
Qin Miao just wanted to cool down his car.
Although the cooling systems of super sports cars are enhanced and much stronger than those of ordinary civilian cars, and even not inferior to some GT3 racing cars, the temperature of the track is indeed a bit too high after running for such a long time under the direct sunlight at noon in summer.
Leclerc and Zhou Guanyu also stopped behind Qin Miao's car.
After getting off the car, Qin Miao felt the heat wave coming towards him from the track.
Although super sports cars are track machines, Qin Miao and his team have often raced on particularly hot tracks, and it is common for the temperature in the cockpit of an F1 car to reach 60°C, but if there is air conditioning, it must be turned on.
If you insist on enduring hardship without any suffering, isn't that a sign of mental illness?
So at this time, the air conditioner in Qin Miao's car was turned to the lowest level.
"How do you feel?" Leclerc came to Qin Miao and asked after coming down.
Qin Miao smacked his lips. "Although the acceleration was a little too high for my taste, the straight-line acceleration and top speed are both the fastest I've ever driven. I also noticed that before the braking point of T10, I reached a top speed of 430 kilometers per hour. It was really cool, but that was it."
Leclerc also nodded: "I have to admit that today's civilian super sports cars are indeed much faster than before in terms of straight-line acceleration, but the lateral G-force is too low, and many corners are not so comfortable. However, the suspension tuning of this car is good."
Qin Miao shrugged: "After driving an F1 car, you will feel good about the suspension tuning of any supercar you drive."
Leclerc nodded, too.
"You two stop chatting, let me try!" Zhou Guanyu on the side had been itching to try it out for a long time.
Qin Miao handed the shield-shaped Koenigsegg key in his pocket to Zhou Guanyu: "Yes."
"No, your car is too girly, I don't like it." Zhou Guanyu flatly refused.
Qin Miao really wanted to kick Zhou Guanyu in the waist at this moment: "It's good enough to have an opening, you're still picky."
"I wouldn't let anyone drive my car." (End of this chapter)
