140: Haze
After listening to Zhou Guanyu's words, Qin Miao frowned and leaned against the wall, he was really a little confused at this moment.
"I was just wayward yesterday, I didn't study according to Ferrari's intentions, why is this matter now known all over the city in just one night."
Zhou Guanyu was also curious: "What's wrong?" ”
Qin Miao also briefly explained this matter, and then said helplessly, I now feel that these moths were made up by the Ferrari gang who wanted to get Sainz in.
"And what are they doing this for?" Zhou Guanyu was puzzled.
Qin Miao was also not sensitive to these things, and he didn't feel anything unusual when he was inside the Ferrari.
If you want him to analyze it, he can't analyze what the reason is, so in the face of Zhou Guanyu's question, he can only shake his head and spread his hands: "I don't say it." ”
Zhou Guanyu snorted, and then asked, "Then what do you think?" Do you want to stay in Ferrari or do you want to go to another team? ”
Qin Miao thought for a while: "To be honest, I'm a person who doesn't like to move nests very much, and I don't really want to adapt to the new environment, at this stage I still want to see the follow-up actions of Ferrari's side, just like Binotto said, they are just in contact with each other at the moment."
But if they do sign Sainz and have a definite result, then I will definitely switch to another team without saying a word. ”
When he said this, Qin Miao was obviously a little interested, for these complicated games and internal political struggles, Qin Miao really wanted to stay away, but there was no way, being in the paddock, even if he didn't want to participate, he would be passively pulled in.
"Let's take one step at a time......"
Sunday.
Qin Miao's mood today is obviously not high, no matter what she does, she can't keep her spirits up, and even has some interest in her favorite racing car.
Obviously, the high-level operation of Ferrari has dealt a big blow to Qin Miao.
However, Qin Miao knew that he had a contract with the team, and the job of a racing driver was not the same as entering the factory to make screws.
If you are not happy with the screw, you can just find a reason to take a leave of absence, and the driver basically gets a field in every race, because every race is related to the driver's future career.
For rich people, it is not difficult to drive a car on the track.
But it's hard to find a group of people with the same driving skills as you and race on the same track.
So unless it's a serious illness that can't get out of bed, no driver will pass up the opportunity to race.
Qin Miao basically has no possibility of asking for leave, no matter how bad his state is today, no matter how low his mood is, he has to finish the whole sprint race hard.
Seriously, when Qin Miao got up in the morning to run, he was thinking about how to escape the sprint race he needed to participate in in the afternoon, and Qin Miao really had the urge to drive his car directly into the gravel field, because after the car was stuck in the gravel field, he could get off work directly.
However, as Qin Miao gradually sobered up, this unrealistic idea in his mind was also thrown out of his mind.
Qin Miao can still tell which is more important, and this car is still bought by Qin Miao with his own money, not the car of the team.
The car rushed into the gravel ground and damaged the car, and when the chassis was scratched by broken stones or something, Qin Miao had to pay for it to repair it himself.
Therefore, Qin Miao could only cheer up his spirit and come to the arena.
There is not much to say about the preparation process, because yesterday's victory in the main race stage, the haze caused by that mistake in the team has disappeared, and the smiles can often be seen on the faces of the team staff.
Sure enough, the best way to alleviate the conflict is to win.
The impact of yesterday's mistake has largely disappeared.
But the team had another problem.
If yesterday it was the team's staff who were in bad shape, today it was the drivers who were not in good shape.
Qin Miao was ruthlessly attacked by some high-level Ferrari executives, and he hasn't eased up yet.
Looking at Qin Miao, who was busy warming up next to his racing car, Luo Xin, who was on the side, clasped his hands to his chest and chatted with Frankie beside him.
"Seriously, boss, are you sure you don't want to talk to Qin Miao? His current state is visibly poor to the naked eye. Looking at Qin Miao, Frankie asked Luo Xin beside him.
Luo Xin shook his head: "I don't think there's anything to say, it's just a regular political trick of Ferrari's top management, since he is mixed in this circle, Qin Miao needs to get used to these dross in the shadows." ”
"Although I don't deny Qin Miao's ability and talent, it is also because of Qin Miao's talent, which makes him think a little too highly of himself, and taking some blows appropriately can make him recognize the true side of this society earlier."
Frankie said: "Qin Miao is too simple, the first time he experienced these things, I am worried that this blow will make him collapse." ”
Although Rosing also had this concern in his heart, he said firmly: "Although there is such a possibility, I choose to believe it." ”
Hearing Rosing's firm answer, Frankie shook his head and didn't continue the topic, this was the choice of his team leader, he was just a track engineer, and there was no room for fingering, so in the end he just sighed and said: "Ferrari is less and less like the Ferrari before, I really can't imagine that they can do this kind of thing to Qin Miao for the sake of profit." ”
After hearing this, Luo Xin also shook his head and sighed: "Money and power can easily corrupt some people, let alone for such a long time. ”
……
Qin Miao didn't know that the two bigwigs of his team talked about himself about the rumors in the paddock.
Qin Miao, who had entered the state of work, basically put all her body and mind into work, and she had no extra thoughts about anything else.
After a period of preparation, the time came for the sprint race to begin.
Qin Miao came to the track again.
Sitting on the racing car, looking at the prancing horse icon on his steering wheel, Qin Miao's emotions in his heart were complicated and difficult to understand.
But soon the sprint race was about to start, and Qin Miao also retracted his chaotic thoughts, concentrated his attention, and began to put all his energy into the car.
Soon the warm-up circle began, and Qin Miao, who started in the eighth, used hard tires today.
Although Qin Miao still wanted a set of soft tires to run the whole race, on the high-speed track of Silverstone, Rao couldn't run the whole race with a set of soft tires with Qin Miao's tire protection ability.
So at this time, the track is no longer all hard tires, and you can see a lot of drivers with soft tires, which are ready to stop in the sprint race.
Although he has no tire advantage when he changes to hard tires, with Qin Miao's ability to protect tires, he can do the whole sprint race without protecting tires, and the whole race is carried out in a fierce driving style.
But I don't know why, after the warm-up lap ended and returned to his eighth-place starting grid, Qin Miao felt a little uneasy in his heart.
And the sky, which was still sunny, seemed to confirm the uneasiness in Qin Miao's heart, and clouds began to drift over gradually.
It's just that at this time, Qin Miao's attention was focused on the five red lights in the distance, and he didn't notice the weather changes that were quietly occurring.
Soon, five red lights came on and off, and with the roar of F2 engines, the sprint race in the UK officially began.
Qin Miao's racing skills were not affected in the slightest by the rumors in the paddock, and the start was still stable and fast.
In the initial stage alone, Qin Miao killed his compatriot Zhou Guanyu.
And Zhou Guanyu is also very self-aware, Qin Miao didn't have any resistance at all when he came over, and directly gave up his position to Qin Miao, and after Qin Miao passed, Zhou Guanyu followed behind Qin Miao very thiefly, and began to pick up the wallet left by Qin Miao when he overtook the car.
Because he was familiar with this track, Zhou Guanyu just relied on DRS and Qin Miao's wake to keep up with Qin Miao's rhythm on this track.
On the seventeenth lap of the game, Zhou Guanyu relied on this set of operations to follow Qin Miao's ass to the third, and Qin Miao chopped melons and vegetables all the way to the second.
It can be seen that Qin Miao is indeed a little out of shape today, because in the past, Qin Miao could basically get back the first position in more than ten laps, and today's Qin Miao chased the 13th lap and ranked second.
Although the weather was getting overcast at this time, it was not raining.
And Qin Miao has also tried his best to block the negative impact of news from the outside world, but it is obvious that Qin Miao's efforts are not ideal.
And before you know it, the whole sky has darkened, and some scattered raindrops have begun to slide from the sky.
Qin Miao only reacted after discovering that a raindrop had smashed into his helmet goggles, and the sky had already sunk.
Qin Miao, who found that the bad feeling in her heart had come true, hurriedly asked in the convoy, "What's the situation?" Is it going to rain? ”
Frankie's side had already discovered that the weather had changed abruptly, but Qin Miao generally didn't like to be disturbed when he was driving, so Frankie didn't remind Qin Miao at the first time, but waited for Qin Miao to ask before replying: "Yes, but the rain won't get heavier in a short period of time, and dry tires are still the best choice at present, we suggest that you can push a little more extreme now, so as to establish enough advantages before the rain." ”
Qin Miao can actually judge what strategy he should choose based on the current situation, but with Frankie, who has a higher perspective than himself and has received more information than himself, to help him formulate a strategy, Qin Miao feels that there is no need to waste any energy on strategy.
So after hearing the other party's answer, Qin Miao replied decisively: "Received." ”
Then Qin Miao began to push the car to the limit in a state where she was not in good shape, the car tuning was not comfortable, and the weather had begun to gradually become gloomy.
Naturally, there was a very obvious improvement in speed, so that Zhou Guanyu, who was already a little difficult to keep up with Qin Miao, couldn't keep up with Qin Miao at all.
The rider who is now in front of Qin Miao is named Drugovic and is currently in ninth place in the standings.
From the beginning of the game, Drew Kovic did not make any mistakes, and after the start, he also relied on his position advantage to steadily open the distance between him and the car behind.
But he didn't have the idea of getting involved in the championship, after all, there was a Qin Miao.
But before he was really surpassed by Qin Miao, Drugovich still didn't want to be caught like this and hand over his position.
So he's been running hard all this time, trying to do his best to keep his current position.
However, as the sky became more and more gloomy, the number of raindrops falling became more and more numerous, and the particles became larger and larger.
Knowing that Qin Miao's ability to fight in the rain was not good, Dhrugovich was like a traveler who was lost in the dark forest, and suddenly saw the light of the city in the distance.
Qin Miao is so strong, so strong that it casts a shadow over all F2 drivers, making everyone have no hope of winning this season.
And this rain gave Dhrugovic hope, breaking through this shadow, seeing the light, seeing the hope of the championship trophy.
Drugovic has a hunch that this may be the only chance he can really touch the F2 trophy this season.
Because of this rain of God.
So within two seconds of Qin Miao just coming behind him, he began to be like Qin Miao and did not protect the tire, and his driving style gradually became aggressive.
I want to delay as long as possible and wait for this rain to get heavier and heavier.
Drugovic, who has watched the video of Qin Miao's rain battle, knows that as long as it rains, the pressure on him to defend Qin Miao's attack will be much less.
So rarely, the audience saw Qin Miao chasing frantically, another racing car, and the other racing car was also running wildly and didn't want Qin Miao to catch up.
It's just that due to Qin Miao's overall speed, he is at least 0.4 seconds faster than Drugovic per lap.
So two laps later, Qin Miao entered the wake area behind Drugovic.
So on lap 15, the two cars started to fight each other.
It is also rare for the audience to see the picture of Qin Miao fighting with other drivers.
It's just that this grappling is somewhat intense, Qin Miao's speed is faster than Drugovic, but Qin Miao's fast place is the curve area of Silverstone, Qin Miao's advantage on the straight is very limited, and it is raining at this time, so the competition disables DRS, so Qin Miao basically can't get any advantage on the straight, and the corner can't overtake, Qin Miao is just blocked behind Drugovich.
However, when the other party also made a big mistake, Qin Miao inserted the inner thread at that time.
However, after the other party came out of the corner, the front of the car was higher than Qin Miao when he entered the corner, and he directly did not leave a place for Qin Miao, and squeezed Qin Miao out of the track.
And more than once or twice.
If Qin Miao didn't think about winning the championship at this time, and then used his results to slap the faces of those Ferrari executives who were not optimistic about him, Qin Miao would not be used to Drugovic at all.
If you dare to squeeze me, I will dare to retire with you, anyway, buddy sits at the top of the standings with 150 points.
But the current Qin Miao can't, because he wants to prove himself very much at this time.
