76: Small game

As soon as she entered the entertainment area, Qin Miao felt the sense of atmosphere that came to her face.

Whether it's the decorations of the F1 team on the surrounding crowd, such as the team uniforms, the team's hats, or the driver's badges, or the promotional posters and F1 elements that can be seen everywhere.

It's all about British motorsport and the excitement of the Formula 1 British Grand Prix.

After all, it was the British Grand Prix, and most of the tourists on the scene were locals, and there were also spectators like Qin Miao who came from abroad to watch the Grand Prix, but after all, they were a minority.

Therefore, compared with other teams, the Meiben team obviously has the most fans, and you can see spectators wearing Meiben's black team uniform everywhere.

The reason why there are so many fans is simple, because there is a five-time champion Hamilton in the Mercedes team.

Mercedes continues to have a winning streak this year, and if nothing else, Hamilton will be able to achieve his six-time feat at the club, and it is foreseeable that his dominance will continue until the F1 rules overhaul.

So for the local British audience, being able to come to their home stadium to watch Hamilton on the podium and even win the championship is undoubtedly a mental and physical double enjoyment.

However, Qin Miao loves Ferrari and Wu, he and Qiu Meng are wearing Ferrari hats on their heads, and there are genuine Ferrari hats on every seat when they were on the sightseeing car just now.

Entering the entertainment area, the first thing that caught the eyes of the two of them was a McLaren F1 car placed on a booth, Qin Miao carefully observed, this seems to be this year's McLaren F1 car: MCL34.

However, judging from the posture in which everyone can sit in the car and take a photo, this should be a model car for nothing, after all, no F1 team will put their upcoming car on display.

But despite this, Qin Miao still lined up for a short time and sat on this McLaren MCL34.

Even if it was a model car, Qin Miao didn't want to miss this opportunity to sit on an F1 car.

One thing to say, when sitting on the F4 without the Halo system, Qin Miao's entire field of vision is very spacious, although the viewing angle is relatively low, at least there will be no obstruction.

When you're in an Formula 1 car with the Halo system, the Halo system in front of you obscures the view ahead, and you have to tilt your head slightly to see the road in front of you.

Fortunately, the Halo system does not block the field of vision in front of you too much, it can only be said that it has a certain impact, and it will be good after getting used to it for a long time.

It was impossible for Qin Miao to stay in this place alone for too long, so after Qiu Meng took two photos, Qin Miao got out of the car, and didn't have time to feel if there would be anything uncomfortable sitting in the cockpit of the F1 car.

After saying goodbye to McLaren's MCL34, the pair visited the Pistali tyre showroom, where you can become a tyre changer for an F1 team in a short period of time.

Even when you change the tire, there will be a machine to help you time.

Qin Miao and Qiu Meng didn't line up because they were VIPs, so they went up directly to try it, and there was a little brother who was also Chinese with them.

Qin Miao was responsible for picking off the tires, Qiu Meng was responsible for removing the nuts with an air gun, and the last Chinese brother was responsible for loading the tires.

Watching those tire changers on TV, the slowest tire change during the game only takes three minutes and a few seconds, so Qin Miao thought that this tire was very easy to change before the experience began.

But after really getting started with the tires, Qin Miao found that this tire is not light at all, a tire is at least 20 pounds, and it is not easy to change the tire as quickly and without errors as the F1 team staff for the first time.

The trio tried three times together, and the best time was around seven seconds.

Qin Miao is okay, after all, during this period of high-intensity exercise, his core strength is enough for him to lift this tire easily, Qiu Meng used to sleep when he only relied on Qin Miao at most, but now he has to put one hand on Qin Miao's chest muscles every day when he sleeps, which shows Qin Miao's physical fitness at this time.

But the other Asian guy didn't have such good physical strength, and the first two times he gritted his teeth and forcibly picked up the tire and buckled it to the drive shaft, but the third time the tire almost didn't even pick it up.

However, after all, this is only an entertainment for visitors to the paddock, and there are no rewards or anything like that.

Qin Miao and Qiu Meng don't have too high a pursuit of the speed of tire change.

After a brief experience, Qin Miao and Qiu Meng looked at other projects.

Qin Miao found that in addition to the entertainment items of tire changing, there were many things for sale in the booth.

For example, the tire rubber that comes off the tire, the tire model that is scaled down in equal proportions, and the small tire that is 1:1 replica of the pole position.

Qin Miao bought such a small tire.

Just like the small tyres that a driver from pole position would get, they also have the F1 and Pirelli logos printed on them, as well as the track map and some textual descriptions.

After all, they are all products made by Pirelli, and the degree of restoration is naturally very high.

Carrying a box of tires from Pirelli's tire shop, Qin Miao and Qiu Meng went to watch the live stage performance again.

The one on stage should be a singer who is very famous in the UK, and many local fans in the audience are enthusiastic after seeing her, but unfortunately Qin Miao and Qiu Meng don't know the stars on stage at all.

But there is one thing to say, his singing is really good, Qin Miao decided to go back to the hotel to find out if he could find this song on domestic music software.

After listening to a song, the two went to the next location.

The next area is the display area of supercars and racing cars, what Lamborghini Porsche Audi, that is really everywhere, and these cars are on display in the open air.

Some cars are even allowed to be sat on directly, but they are not too expensive supercars.

In addition to this, there are quite a few places to sell things in the paddock, clothes, food, drinks, small souvenirs.

The two were also infected by the atmosphere of the scene, and bought a lot of souvenirs, such as a scaled-down model of a F1 car, a scaled-down helmet of the driver, and a signed photo of the driver.

Before entering the paddock entertainment area, the two were alone, except for a little money, only the Ferrari hats they wore on their heads, and a bag.

But after the two of them came out after shopping for half an hour, whether it was Qin Miao or Qiu Meng, both of them carried a lot of things in their hands.

Is it worthy of the Grand Prix that has already formed a scale, and they always have a way to easily arouse the desire of tourists to buy.

However, after shopping around a large circle of shops, the two have also come to the end of the entertainment area and are about to walk out.

But just before they went out, there was a simulator experience area in front of them, and many children walked through it.

As soon as he saw this place, Qin Miao was immediately not sleepy.

This kind of place can easily arouse the interest of young people like Qin Miao.

Walking into the simulation experience area with excitement and curiosity, Qin Miao was ready to launch a merciless slaughter of British children.

However, the picture inside was a bit of a disappointment for Qin Miao, because Qin Miao only saw three or four professional racing simulator equipment, and the others were the kind of arcade racing games that could be played in the game hall.

And the few racing simulators still have people on board, and there are quite a few people lined up behind them.

After seeing this scene, Qin Miao's interest was mostly dispersed, after all, as a man who aspires to rule GT3, he basically has no interest in arcade racing games.

And there are so many people next to the professional racing simulator, Qin Miao doesn't want to use his privilege to cut in line.

But just as Qin Miao was about to turn around and leave, Qiu Meng noticed something like an introduction sign next to the group of people who were queuing.

"Qin Miao, Qin Miao, look at the words on it." Qiu Meng patted Qin Miao.

Qin Miao looked in the direction Qiu Meng pointed.

[Entertainment Festival: If you defeat the defending driver, you will receive a mystery gift, Note: Each person only has one chance to challenge.] 】

After carefully distinguishing the words written on the sign, Qin Miao roughly knew what this group of people were trying to do here.

Although Qin Miao is not a person who is unprofitable and can't afford to be early, the interest that had dissipated after seeing the explanation on the sign returned.

In Qin Miao's view, this is at most just an entertainment competition, and the drivers who can be invited are estimated to be professional, but they will definitely not be too strong.

Otherwise, the tourists who come here will not be embarrassed, they are just here to play, but they didn't expect to be hit the simulator.

Although Qin Miao is not so confident that he thinks that he is invincible in China, Qin Miao feels that with his current strength, he belongs to the ranks of having two brushes.

In fact, Qin Miao at this time was a bit like a person who had just returned from the middle school martial arts in the deep mountains, he knew that he might have some strength, but he didn't have a B number in his heart about how much strength he had, so now he urgently needed to find someone to teach or be taught a lesson.

Qin Miao's original plan was to wait for her GT3 car to get her hands on it and compare it with the drivers in the team, and then let the engineers in the team see what else she needed to improve.

But now there is a clear professional driver who can compete with each other, and this is a rare opportunity.

Qin Miao, who had nothing to say, also lined up.

While waiting in the rear, Qin Miao also paid attention to the competition items.

Guarding the ring was a man wearing a Ferrari short-sleeved shirt and gray trousers, but for some reason, he was wearing a white racing helmet on his head, which made Qin Miao unable to see his face clearly.

There are two types of competitions.

The first is that the challenger runs for five seconds, and the defender of the ring chases behind, and if he is caught up and overtaken within five laps, then the challenger loses, and the next person comes up to continue.

The second is that both sides do the flight circle without interference, the challenger can do 5 flight circles, while the defender can only do one flight circle, and finally compare the final results of both sides.

The map of the race is, of course, Silverstone, where today's Grand Prix will be held.

After waiting for almost 20 minutes, it was Qin Miao's turn.

For the sake of efficiency, there are four people in a race, three challengers and one defending driver.

Qin Miao happened to be sitting next to the guarding driver.

And the guarding driver saw that Qin Miao was wearing a Ferrari hat on his head, and at the same time the Ferrari logo was on the VIP bracelet, so he stretched out his hand to Qin Miao: "Welcome." ”

Qin Miao didn't notice anything unusual, and shook hands with him.

When the other party shook hands with Qin Miao, he found that this Ferrari VIP customer's face was full of confidence and fighting spirit.

Smiling absently, he turned his attention to the simulator.

After Qin Miao sat down, he simply adjusted the position of the pedals and steering wheel.

When everything is almost ready, he motioned to the staff on the side to prepare himself.

After receiving the signal, the other person nodded, and when the other two challengers were ready, he asked the three of them, "Which challenge do you want to choose?" ”

In fact, when queuing, Qin Miao had already thought about which way to choose.

After all, people have clearly released these two methods, and Qin Miao has no reason to choose the option that is unfavorable to him.

"I'll choose the first one." Qin Miao opened her mouth and said to the referee.

The choices of the other two people are the same as Qin Miao's, both of them are the first.

The referee nodded and then looked at the defending driver, and when he saw that the opponent also nodded to make sure that there was no problem, he began to prepare for the race.

The reason why Qin Miao chose the first option is not difficult to guess, after all, if the first one wants to win, the other party not only has to chase Qin Miao for five seconds, but also has to surpass Qin Miao on the track.

Qin Miao's 79-point defensive ability is no joke, he has enough confidence to hold this man's attack until the 5-lap track is finished.

As for the reason why he didn't choose the flying circle, it was relatively simple, Qin Miao's proficiency in the Silverstone Track was not too high, and after getting the system, he hadn't had time to brush the proficiency of the Silverstone Track, and his knowledge of this track was still due to several previous e-sports competitions on this track.

Therefore, Qin Miao can only be said to know a little bit about Silverstone, but there is naturally no way to compare it with the track where his proficiency has been brushed to 100 by Spa Francorchamps, Red Bull Ring, and Shangsai.

The referee quickly adjusted the computer, and the four entered the game at the same time.

The game of this competition is "F1 2019", Qin Miao is relatively familiar with this game, after all, this is the only officially certified F1 game on the market.

But after all, this is just an entertainment game, and there is no need for the official to deliberately develop any features for such a small game.

So this competition is relatively simple, it's just a heads-up room for two people.

It is worth mentioning that the DRS of this race is directly opened, and it will not be like the main race, and it will not have to run two laps to open.

Silverstone is a difficult high-speed track, and in reality, it has Turn 9, the highest G-force in F1.

Some rovers are even able to go through corners with full fuel in this place, and at a speed of 300 km/h, the G-force can reach a terrifying 5.1G.

In the stage of choosing a car, Qin Miao chose this year's Ferrari F1 car, which is SF90.

Speaking of Ferrari cars, we have to mention the way they named them.

Because unlike other teams that at least have a pattern when naming their cars for the new season, Ferrari names their cars as if they were shaking the dice, without the slightest pattern to follow, and I don't know how many Ferrari fans with obsessive-compulsive disorder have been killed.

The defending driver and Qin Miao both used Ferrari cars, and both of them even used Leclerc's No. 16 car.

The other two guys who looked like they were British locals were Mercedes and drove Hamilton's No. 44 car.

P.S. Sorry, I forgot to set the automatic update......
