Before entering the maintenance area, Qin Miao braked hard, and when he crossed the white line in the maintenance area, the speed dropped to below 80 kilometers per hour, turned on the speed limit button in the maintenance area on his steering wheel, and stepped on half of the accelerator, Qin Miao maintained the cruising speed and entered the maintenance area.

Meiben's pit area is the first one on the far right of the pit lane entrance, so after Qin Miao entered the pit lane, he saw the staff of his team and the indicator lights they were holding.

Qin Miao, who has practiced pit stops countless times, was nervous at this time, with a heart rate of more than 120, but after a long time of training, Qin Miao had developed muscle memory when pit and change tires, so this stop was very accurate, and there was no deviation in the parking position.

Although the staff of the team did not enjoy Qin Miao's skills at this time, the attributes of the Meiben team itself are very high, so the final result of Qin Miao's tire change in this pit stop is 2.1 seconds, which is a very good result.

After changing to hard tires and leaving the pit stop, Qin Miao fell 1.7 seconds behind Hamilton, and Hamilton was 16 seconds away from Verstappen at this time.

When Qin Miao left the station, Frankie's voice also came from the team TR: "Qin Miao, this appearance circle of yours is very important, it is related to whether you can cut Verstappen." ”

Qin Miao didn't answer, but after receiving the news from the team, his spirit was highly concentrated, and he began to do his best to do the lap.

A lap after Qin Miao pitted, Verstappen finally pitted.

It's okay to be under cut by Hamilton, after all, this is Mei Ben's yang scheme, if you don't want to be led by Mei Ben's nose, then you can only pinch your nose and admit this dumb loss.

But if Qin Miao is also allowed to complete the under cut of Verstappen, then Red Bull's strategy group will not be over, and the collective resignation will be possible.

So on the second lap after Qin Miao's pit stop, Verstappen also took advantage of the situation to pit stop.

The medium tyre for the medium tyre took 2.8 seconds, and Verstappen still had a gap of more than seven seconds between Hamilton and came out.

However, Verstappen was on medium tyres and Hamilton was on hard tyres, and with a 0.5-second gap on the track, it was only a matter of time before Verstappen caught up with Hamilton.

It's just that there is a small variable between Verstappen and Hamilton in this game.

That's Qin Miao, who finished the same thing as his teammate Hamilton, for Verstappen under cut.

The reason is more complicated, on the one hand, because Mercedes's tire change is 0.7 seconds faster than Red Bull, and Qin Miao, who originally fell behind Verstappen in the DRS area, ran faster than Verstappen on the lap, so when Verstappen came out of the pit lane, Qin Miao was exactly one second in front of him.

Horner and Nuvey teamed up to crack down on the Red Bull strategy group, which was preparing to resign, and continued to push them to work.

But Verstappen on the field has no one to comfort, if he wants to win this game, he has to surpass Qin Miao in front of him.

At this time, the TR of the Mercedes and Red Bull teams sounded the orders given by the team to the drivers almost at the same time.

"Qin Miao, do your best to defend against Verstappen's attack."

"To overtake Qin as soon as possible, we need to pursue Hamilton in front."

……

After this passage, Qin Miao focused most of his attention on the rearview mirror, and Verstappen also began to accelerate at this time, and the ERS charged a circle of electricity before the pit stop, which came in handy at this time.

On lap 21, Verstappen came to the DRS area behind Qin Miao and had begun to put pressure on Qin Miao frequently.

In the data panel in front of Toto, there was the speed gap between Qin Miao and Verstappen at this time.

Although Horner, who was sitting on the command podium on the side of the track, frowned, he was not worried about Qin Miao causing any trouble to Verstappen, because he knew that with Verstappen's ability, it would be relatively easy to surpass Qin Miao.

At this time, Toto was really worried, because at this time, Qin Miao was 1 second slower than Verstappen's lap, and this gap was placed in a normal game, and Verstappen could easily surpass Qin Miao.

Although Qin Miao's performance was very good when tested on the simulator of the Meiben factory, these were only test data and had not been practiced on the field.

This was the first time Qin Miao had shown her defensive ability on the field in a real sense, and Toto and all the crew members of the Mercedes team were nervous at this time.

Most of them, with the exception of the data analysts, stopped what they were doing and looked up at the two cars on the air.

At this time, the director also gave the camera to Qin Miao and Verstappen, after all, Qin Miao's performance at this time determined the ownership of the final champion of this game to a certain extent.

T1, Verstappen already had Qin Miao's DRS at this time, so he had already pulled Qin Miao's outside line in the middle of the big straight.

The reason why he didn't tap the inside line was mainly because Qin Miao came directly to the dirty side position after getting out of T15 and gave Verstappen a certain position on the driving line.

There are better driving routes, and Verstappen certainly won't miss it.

In addition, today's wind is blowing head-on on the big straight, Verstappen's wake effect and DRS effect are outstanding, and even before the braking point of T1, Qin Miao has been surpassed on the outside line.

Verstappen's front of the car exceeded 1/4 of Qin Miao's car, and then braked into T1, while Qin Miao braked late to make up for the 1/4 gap, so the two entered T1 almost at the same time, and when turning right, Qin Miao pressed Verstappen's driving line, but did not squeeze Verstappen directly out of the track, or left him more than 1.2 body space.

But if you go through this space, Verstappen won't get into T2 very well, and his speed will inevitably suffer.

Therefore, Verstappen did not directly enter the corner side by side with Qin Miao in this corner, but walked a cross line with Qin Miao after Qin Miao braked at night, and obtained a faster exit speed than Qin Miao.

3. Although Qin Miao is in front of these two corners, the Verstappen with the blessing of the Honda engine is faster than Qin Miao with the naked eye.

The gap between the two cars is closing at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

"Beautiful, Qin Miao held his position, but Verstappen's crossing line was obviously faster than Qin Miao after the corner, and the next step was the DRS area."

"Wait, why did Verstappen slow down on the big straights after T3?"

“DRS！ It's DRS, Qin Miao has DRS! When entering the DRS detection point before T1, Qin Miao happened to fall behind Verstappen, so Qin Miao now has DRS to use! ”

……

Relying on the accurate calculation when entering T1, Qin Miao did deliberately let Verstappen go at T1, allowing the other party to eat the DRS monitoring point first.

Although the speed of this year's Meiben's car in the corner is not as fast as last year's, and the absolute speed of the car is not as good as Honda's engine, it will not be so much worse, plus Qin Miao is biased towards understeer, the straight-line speed will be faster, plus Qin Miao has DRS, so Qin Miao even opened a little gap with Verstappen on this straight.

However, putting aside Qin Miao's caution in this defense, Qin Miao after entering T4 came to a section where he didn't have to worry about being overtaken.

On the one hand, there are many corners in these places, and there is no suitable overtaking route at all, and on the other hand, because the speed of Mercedes' car is faster than that of Red Bull in the second stage, Qin Miao can also relax his tense nerves slightly, waiting for Verstappen's next attack.

In a racing race, rhythm is a very important thing, and Verstappen's defeat of Qin Miao's attack will cause his rhythm to lose to a certain extent.

So after the attack failed in this lap, Verstappen didn't catch up with Qin Miao again until after T14 in this lap.

Before passing the DRS monitoring point of T14 this time, Verstappen did not have a DRS bonus, and could only rely on a much stronger wake than normal to get close to Qin Miao, until after T3, Verstappen entered the second DRS area on the track and got a chance to attack Qin Miao.

This attack Verstappen used an inside attack, after all, he had just attacked Qin Miao for the first time, and the opponent relied on the attack to press Verstappen's offensive line by sticking to the inside line.

Because Verstappen had the DRS bonus at this time, the two cars once again formed a state of side-by-side into the corner when entering the braking point.

And Qin Miao firmly stood on the outside line this time, and only forced Verstappen's forward line slightly to the right when he was side by side with him.

Although it seems that Qin Miao only started to change lines when Verstappen arrived at the back of his car, which is somewhat immoral, Qin Miao's operation is not inappropriate.

Because of the rules of the game, you can't change lanes continuously when defending, but Qin Miao was already in a normal driving state, and only changed the line once when Verstappen came to his side, and Qin Miao also left two bodies of track space for Verstappen, and did not directly squeeze him out.

Therefore, Qin Miao's operation is in line with the rules of the FIA.

But this oppression did have an impact on Verstappen.

No matter who you are, when you suddenly see a car squeezing towards you, your first reaction is to release the accelerator and try to dodge.

The F1 driver's reaction was different, and Verstappen only turned right to avoid Qin Miao's squeeze after finding out.

But Qin Miao's defensive method that harms others and is not beneficial to himself really disgusted Verstappen.

It may have had no effect on Verstappen's speed, but it definitely gave Verstappen a certain shock to his heart.

In the game, Qin Miao's operation is called engaging mentality.

After pressing Verstappen's approach angle, Qin Miao returned to the normal approach line.

Before Verstappen could make any moves, Qin Miao had already taken a crossover line.

Qin Miao predicted in advance that Verstappen would brake late on his own cornering route.

And Verstappen was indeed as Qin Miao predicted, braking late in an attempt to block Qin Miao's entry line, but Qin Miao, who had been prepared, was not affected in any way, and came out of the corner from behind Verstappen's ass, and even after the corner, because the speed was faster than Verstappen, he regained the position.

Verstappen, on the other hand, took a slightly larger line and lost 0.6 seconds of rhythm due to late braking.

Although Verstappen was faster than Qin Miao, he had to run half a lap to chase 0.6 seconds.

After the two laps of entanglement, the gap between Hamilton and Qin Miao has come to 10 seconds, and there is a possibility that it will continue to increase.

Verstappen, too, is starting to get a little impatient.

Although there is not much difference in the wear rate of medium and hard tyres in Bahrain, it is not for nothing, as time goes on, Verstappen's speed will get slower and slower, and the longer it takes to surpass Qin Miao, the less likely it will be for Verstappen to catch up with Hamilton and overtake the other party.

And Qin Miao has figured out some of Verstappen's offensive habits in his heart after guarding Verstappen for two laps, and he also has confidence in the defense of the third round.

……

Mei Ben P room, Toto, who was still full of worry, looked at Qin Miao's data in front of him, and the corners of his mouth were about to crack to the back of his ears.

From time to time, he also chatted with Qin Miao's track engineer Frankie.

At this time, Frankie was also full of surprise, because he had never seen Qin Miao's defensive ability when he was in F2.

This is mainly in F2, and no one can let Qin Miao show his defensive talent, and he is 0.5 seconds faster than other drivers every lap, which is not a joke with you.

And now it is the first time that Qin Miao has shown his defensive ability in front of the world.

And it is only now that the audience knows that Qin Miao's strongest thing is not his ability to protect the fetus, but his defensive ability.

The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway.

In the eyes of ordinary viewers, they just know that Qin Miao has defended Verstappen for two laps.

And those who are really professional can see that Qin Miao is very relaxed when defending Verstappen.

This can be seen from Qin Miao's defensive movements.

If you look closely, you will find that after Qin Miao comes out of the bend, he never needs to reverse fine-tune the oil to accelerate.

From this point alone, it can be seen that although Qin Miao has pressure at this time, it is definitely not too big, and the operation has always been very stable, without any deformation.

"I had already overestimated Qin Miao as much as possible, but now after seeing his performance on the field, I know that I still underestimated him." These are what Toto said after seeing Qin Miao still hold on to Verstappen, who was an average of 1 second faster than him, in the third lap.

Qin Miao guarded Verstappen for 5 laps like this.

Until lap 27, Verstappen relied on two laps of dormancy to fill the battery of his car, relying on the T1's big east wind and DRS and all the discharged power to pull his car speed to a terrifying 340 kilometers per hour, and forced Qin Miao to surpass in three-quarters of the straight.

Qin Miao was actually ready to guard against Verstappen, but after seeing Verstappen's proximity, Qin Miao knew that in the face of Verstappen, who was terrifying at the tail speed, he couldn't defend his attack even if he struggled.

Therefore, Qin Miao went against the previous norm of frantically oppressing Verstappen's line, and directly kept his driving line unchanged and let Verstappen pass by his side.

And Qin Miao's strict defense of Verstappen's five laps can be regarded as completing the task assigned to him by the team, and no one can find fault with Qin Miao.

In those five laps, Hamilton opened up a 17-second gap.

“…… I couldn't hold it this time. Seeing Qin Miao being surpassed, Fei Ge said with some emotion: "But one thing to say, Qin Miao's defensive ability is indeed a bit strong. ”

Brother Bing answered: "Indeed, Qin Miao's defensive ability is a little better than everyone's expectations, the comparison given by the competition just now can be seen that Verstappen's laps are actually faster than Qin Miao, and Bahrain's Sakhir is still a relatively good track for overtaking, but under such unfavorable conditions, he actually defended Verstappen for 5 laps." ”

"Qin Miao did give us all a surprise in terms of defensive ability, I believe that Mei Ben will be very happy after returning to this game, and in terms of Qin Miao's current strength, his position in F1 has basically stabilized, if he does not meet a better driver, Mei Ben is unlikely to take Qin Miao down." Zhou Haoran interjected.

……

On the field, Verstappen had just broken free from Qin Miao's defense, and although the time difference between himself and Hamilton in front of him was a bit big at this time, Verstappen still began to push forward with all his might.

And Qin Miao can be regarded as having completed her task, and the fight just now also consumed a lot of Qin Miao's tires and fuel, so in the next game, Qin Miao started to run a long distance with a tire-protecting running method.

As for Qin Miao's back......

Norris, who ran the fastest, was 25 seconds away from Qin Miao at this time, and to be honest, they saw Qin Miao at this time as much bigger than Verstappen looked at Hamilton in front of him.

And after the fight between Qin Miao and Verstappen ended, the director watched the excitement and switched the camera to Ferrari's command platform.

Ferrari principal Binotto's unkempt head appears in the shot.

At this time, Binotto was wearing a mask, and everyone couldn't see his face clearly, but it must not be too good.

Although Qin Miao did not say in the paddock why he left Ferrari to join Mercedes in the first place, there was no shortage of well-informed people in the paddock, and now Qin Miao left Ferrari because he couldn't drive in Ferrari is basically known to all Iron Buddha Temples.

Now that the director is broadcasting everything on a small screen, everyone who knows about it will all smile.

【Lens Language】

[The director couldn't speak, but he showed us a joke in the language of the camera]

[Take it on the spot]

【Class A War Criminal】

[Bihi does have two brushes in knowing people and making good use of this]

[This director is too naughty]

[One thing to say, I can't understand why Ferrari had such a big dad as Qin Miao at the beginning, so I had to find a Sainz]

[How can the house flower have the fragrance of wild flowers? 】

……

"Well done, Qin Miao, we now have more tactical options, now we need to pit for soft tyres at lap 46 and try to chase Verstappen during this time, do you get it?"

After hearing the team's TR, Qin Miao was stunned for a moment, and then replied with some excitement: "Okay, I will do my best." ”

In fact, Qin Miao's tactics at this time are still to run the whole race with his current set of hard tires, and neither the team nor Qin Miao has the idea of re-entering the pit stop for soft tires.

And this TR is actually deceiving people and putting pressure on Red Bull.

Qin Miao was a little excited because it was the first time to deceive people, and this feeling of doing bad things was quite special for Qin Miao.

After Red Bull heard Mei Ben's TR, the strategy team began to calculate frantically, and Horner also rubbed his eyebrows with a bit of a headache to guess Mei Ben's tactical intentions.

Horner, who couldn't think of a good way in a short period of time, even had a momentary distraction, and Horner thought of the phone call he made to Qin Miao's agent when Qin Miao was still in F2.

If I had persevered a little longer, would the picture on the field now not be that Qin Miao defended Verstappen five laps, let Hamilton pull away, and threw this big trouble to himself and his strategy group, but Qin Miao defended Hamilton for five laps and let Verstappen pull away, and it was Mei Ben who had a headache?

However, this was just an unrealistic idea in Horner's mind, and Horner soon put this idea behind him and began to study the situation on the field at this time.

In the ensuing race, the three drivers in front of him were again without cameras.

Qin Miao's game also came to the rhythm of the winter test that he was familiar with.

Red Bull ultimately chose to stay put, allowing Verstappen to try to chase Hamilton.

On lap 34, Hamilton pitted on this lap, and Verstappen was still more than 7 seconds away from Hamilton, but Verstappen's speed was starting to drop a bit, and he could pit for new tyres at any time.

The hard tyres on Hamilton's side actually still have enough grip, but Mercedes directly predicted your Red Bull's prediction and chose to pit ahead of you.

Do you want to circumvent the wall? I'll just pull the wall up for you.

And Hamilton pitted at this time to avoid the slow train that was about to be lapped by himself, and also to get a clean enough air flow for lap time.

After seeing Mei Ben's operation, Red Bull's strategy team staff were really numb, and many of the staff in charge of strategy were about to smoke at this time.

If Qin Miao is changed to the position of the Red Bull strategy group, Qin Miao estimates that he will take off his clothes and stop picking at this time, so are you here to run the game or to play "The Art of War"? Why are there so many eyes in the heart?

And Qin Miao was about 5 seconds in front of Hamilton at this time.

Verstappen's medium tyres had already run 16 laps, but they still had plenty of grip and were not much faster than Hamilton's new hard tyres.

On lap 39, Hamilton came to Qin Miao within a second.

And Qin Miao also reciprocated to Hamilton, Hamilton did not stop him when he was faster than the other party, and now Hamilton is faster than Qin Miao, Qin Miao didn't even wait for Toto to say anything, and directly gave up the lane to Hamilton.

Let the other party turn on DRS and pass.

The commentator who saw this scene sighed with emotion: "Hamilton gave up his place to Qin Miao at the beginning of the game, and now Qin Miao has blocked Hamilton and made way for Hamilton."

After this game, Hamilton really couldn't say anything if he didn't invite Qin Miao to have a good meal. ”
