Qiu Meng knew that she couldn't express any dissatisfaction with the Meiben team under the camera at the scene, and staying in the paddock was destined to have countless pairs of eyes observing her, so she could only look back at Qin Miao with some worry at this time.

Qiu Meng has known Qin Miao for many years, and knows that although Qin Miao looks like a salted fish, she is very tough on some principled things, and suddenly received this news that is very unfair to Qin Miao, Qiu Meng is worried that Qin Miao will not be able to control herself and do something irrational.

Any young man with strong blood may not be able to stand such anger, he obviously has the opportunity to compete for the championship but can't fight for it, but has to pay for the mistakes of his teammates.

So after looking at Qin Miao with some concern, Qiu Meng also grabbed Qin Miao's arm.

However, Qin Miao's reaction was beyond Qiu Meng's expectations, after receiving the news, Qin Miao seemed very calm, and after thinking about it, he asked Frankie: "Is Hamilton confident that he can catch up with Verstappen in 18 laps?" ”

Frankie was also a little surprised by Qin Miao's calmness, but after hearing the other party's question, he just helplessly spread his hands: "I don't know, I was just called over by Toto to pass the word." ”

Qin Miao smashed his mouth and subconsciously looked in the direction where Hamilton was.

At this time, Hamilton was ranked sixth, not far from Qin Miao, and from Qin Miao's angle, he could just see the old man standing next to his car with his hands on his chest at this time, pondering something.

Qin Miao thought for a while, patted Qiu Meng's shoulder to signal her to rest assured, and then said to Frankie, "You wait for me for a while." ”

After finishing speaking, Qin Miao walked directly in the direction of Hamilton.

Only Qiu Meng and Frankie were left looking at each other.

Qin Miao came all the way to Hamilton's side, and at this time, Hamilton also noticed Qin Miao walking towards him.

Although he was a little annoyed by the mistake he made in T7 when he was too impatient, Hamilton still had fighting spirit in his heart at this time, after all, with the help of the red flag, he didn't have to worry about tire problems in the next game, and he also greatly reduced the distance between himself and the group in front of him.

So after seeing Qin Miao coming, Hamilton didn't have obvious negative emotions, and took the lead in greeting Qin Miao with a smile: "Qin! Is everything okay? ”

Qin Miao walked to Hamilton's side and shook hands with the other party before hugging him briefly before answering: "It's okay, it's you, the car is not seriously damaged, right?" ”

Hamilton shrugged: "The car is in good shape at the moment, and the damage is only the front wing, so it's no problem after the change. ”

Qin Miao nodded, then covered her mouth and said, "If I help you block Leclerc and the car behind Leclerc, is it possible for you to catch up with Verstappen in the next sixteen laps of the race?" ”

Hamilton looked at Qin Miao in surprise after hearing this, and from his eyes and movements, Qin Miao saw the surprise and astonishment of Ruruo.

"Toto just let Frankie tell me that they need me to help you stop Leclerc." Qin Miao explained the origin of his statement.

After hearing Qin Miao's explanation, Hamilton frowned and thought about it, and then saw him hug Qin Miao's shoulder, and like Qin Miao, he blocked his mouth with one hand and said: "Qin, you know, sometimes the decision made by the upper echelons is not that they have opinions on you and want to suppress you, but that they make the best choice under specific conditions and out of consideration of the overall interests.

Our perspective at this time is limited, and there is no way to give an objective evaluation of the tactical choices of the strategy group.

But anyway, I made a mistake in this game, and I feel like that's it for me, and you shouldn't be paying for my mistakes.

So relax, you don't need to do anything for me, all you need to do when the race resumes is to bite Verstappen and challenge for your first race win.

I'll go and explain to Toto after the game, and I'll take care of any problems for you. ”

Hamilton isn't short of wins, he's not winning, it's just instinct to want to win, and he wants to create a more perfect career and record.

A record that has never been seen before or since.

But that doesn't mean he can suck the blood of his teammates with peace of mind.

Listening to Hamilton's relief and assurance, Qin Miao's eyes flickered for a moment, and then nodded: "Okay, I know."

But I still want to ask you, if I do this, will you be able to catch up? ”

"No, it's not a question of whether I can catch up, you have to know that this game has been messed up by me, and now you have to do not wipe my ass for me, but to finish your own game......"

When Hamilton was about to say something, Angela reminded the two of them: "The race has been announced, the race is about to restart, I think it's better to talk about something after the race, now you should go back to your car." ”

Angela's words interrupted what Hamilton was about to say next, but Qin Miao did not move his steps, and looked at Hamilton firmly and stubbornly.

Hamilton looked at Qin Miao's eyes, and finally just said, "I don't know, but I will always try to chase forward." ”

After getting the answer he wanted, Qin Miao nodded, shook hands with Hamilton and hugged him, and then nodded slightly to Angela, then turned around and trotted towards his car.

When they came to Qiu Meng's side, Frankie did not leave at this time, both of them looked at Qin Miao, and they were a little curious about what he had just talked to Hamilton about.

Qiu Meng is worried, and Frankie is a little apprehensive.

Qin Miao smiled and took off her coat and put it in Qiu Meng's hand, turned her head to Frankie and said, "Tell Toto that I will try my best to complete the task he assigned." ”

After finishing speaking, Qin Miao didn't care about the wonderful expressions of the two of them after hearing his answer, picked up his helmet and sweat-absorbing mask, and finished putting on the equipment.

It's back in the car.

Looking at Qin Miao, Qiu Meng was still a little worried, she was afraid that Qin Miao might hold back her resentment in her heart, it was very dangerous to drive on the track with such emotions, and she didn't know what Toto thought, giving such a team order at this time.

And Frankie breathed a sigh of relief, after all, it was really a bit offensive to inform Qin Miao of the news, he was afraid that Qin Miao would disobey, and in the end, everyone's faces couldn't be hanged.

It's not just Frankie and Qiu Meng, the Meiben executives who basically know that Toto gave this order are all confused, why are these moths doing with Toto?

It is true that Qin Miao is the No. 2 driver of Meiben, but with Qin Miao's talent, everyone can see that Toto is cultivating Qin Miao as the prince of Meiben, but why did he suddenly use Qin Miao as a cow and horse in this race?

Toto didn't explain anything, but still sat back in his place with his hands on his chest, waiting for the game to begin.

There are still about 5 minutes before the restart of the race, and the race will untie all the cars that have been lapped, while Qin Miao and the others continue to wait in the pit lane for the instructions of the race.

More than two minutes after the lapped car was let out, the race committee informed Qin Miao that they followed the safety car and drove out of the pit area normally.

After receiving the notice of the race, the members of Qin Miao's crew removed all the equipment and released Qin Miao.

Qin Miao is Verstappen in front of him, Leclerc, Sainz, Norris behind him, and then Hamilton.

After a lap under the safety car, the untied cars returned to their respective positions and followed the formation to warm up the tires.

As Qin Miao expected, the six cars in front of them were all replaced with soft tires after the red flag.

Only the midstream group in the rear still uses medium tyres, but no one uses hard tyres anymore.

At the end of lap 47, the safety roof lights went out and entered the pit.

And Verstappen began to swing from side to side sharply to heat up the tires, and Qin Miao did the same.

At this time, Qin Miao had already made up his mind to help Hamilton behind him block one or two Ferraris.

Regardless of the team's instructions and the objective factors of his enmity with Ferrari, Hamilton's words did make Qin Miao a little touched.

And Qin Miao really didn't think that his strength was enough to catch up with Verstappen in front, although he was very strong, there was still a certain gap with Verstappen.

Although it is a bit embarrassing to say that he is cowardly before fighting, Qin Miao has a relatively clear understanding of his current ability, and if he can't run, he can't run, which is nothing unspeakable.

I couldn't outrun others, and I went back to practice after the game.

Anyway, at most, I will fight with Verstappen for a while, and then there is a high probability that Verstappen will gradually pull away, and then I will enter the cruising state to run the whole race.

Since there is a high probability that there is nothing to do in the follow-up games, it is better to help Hamilton.

If you treat me with your heart, I will treat you with your heart.

Soon, the car formation passed T18, and Qin Miao didn't even pay much attention to Verstappen in front of him at this time, just put a little afterglow on him.

And most of Qin Miao's attention was on his rearview mirror.

Verstappen doesn't care if he pulls his distance after starting Qin Miao but you Leclerc definitely can't overtake me after starting up.

However, while Qin Miao was observing Leclerc, he also deliberately used his own car to block Leclerc and Leclerc's view of Sainz looking at the Verstappen car in front of him.

At this time, the track is not completely dry, although the driving line that can be driven normally is enough for two F1 cars to pass side by side, but it is relatively easy for Qin Miao to block the sight of the drivers behind him.

Verstappen, on the other hand, did not start accelerating immediately after the corner, but pressed the car slightly, and only after two seconds did he suddenly start to accelerate.

Verstappen's operation is to get out of the T18 with a rear car, and the spirit will be tense and highly concentrated, but after the corner, he found that the car in front did not start, and he was slightly relieved, and the spirit was slightly relaxed for a momentary time difference.

And what about Qin Miao? He was very relaxed, so he was not too nervous, but after Verstappen started, he naturally followed Verstappen's movements for the first time and began to accelerate with oil, because it was a dynamic start, and Qin Miao's tires were fully heated up before the game, so Qin Miao's tire temperature at this time was ideal, and Qin Miao went down 80% of the throttle stroke with one kick.

And when the gear of the car came to 3rd gear, he directly stepped on the accelerator.

Although most of Qin Miao's attention was now on behind him, the instinct of starting made Qin Miao subconsciously keep up with Verstappen's rhythm in front.

And Qin Miao found out, why did he still suck Verstappen's wake?!

Although there is credit for Qin Miao's ERS, Qin Miao's approach to Verstappen is a little faster than Qin Miao expected.

There is really no other reason for this situation, it is purely that Qin Miao seems to have started very disheartenedly this time.

If you take a closer look at Qin Miao and Verstappen's starting timeline, you will find that Qin Miao was actually 0.07 faster than Verstappen when he gave oil, which was completely a prediction of the start of the flow, and you said that he had no problem rushing.

So much so that in the center of T1 and T2, Qin Miao has already stuck to the position of 0.2 seconds behind Verstappen, and Qin Miao has a speed advantage of at least 12 kilometers per hour compared to Verstappen.

Verstappen had already grabbed the Timing start, although he was not so extreme when he started to avoid the rear wheel slipping when he gave oil, and he was a little more conservative when he stepped on the throttle, but these operations still had a relatively small impact on his speed after the start.

But Verstappen couldn't figure out how the Mercedes behind him bit the back of his ass.

Although Qin Miao's task at this time was to help his teammates behind him press the car, but he was finally able to catch up behind Verstappen, Qin Miao couldn't care about helping his teammates press the car in a short time, and the effect of pressing the car after overtaking Verstappen was the same.

After catching up and coming to a gap of 0.2 seconds, Qin Miao naturally took the lead in the first place.

After discovering that Qin Miao was approaching quickly, Verstappen had already entered defensive mode, and Qin Miao drew the inside line, so he merged inward to prevent Qin Miao's line.

Qin Miao also took the right turn to play after finding Verstappen squeezing over, trying to find a way out from the right, and the time gap between Qin Miao and Verstappen came to 0.1 seconds.

And because he didn't enter the braking zone, Verstappen found that Qin Miao changed the line and then changed to the outside line, blocking Qin Miao's line.

And Qin Miao could only change the line again and go to the inside, and at this time, the distance between the two cars had come to 0.05 seconds, which was basically the state that Qin Miao's front nose and Verstappen's rear diffuser were overlapping.

Verstappen naturally cashed in again at this time to compress Qin Miao's line.

But Qin Miao has already taken the lead behind Verstappen after changing lanes twice in a row at this time, and Verstappen can't really squeeze Qin Miao out directly on the straight.

So in the end, Verstappen just squeezed Qin Miao to the edge of the track, but still left a certain amount of track space for Qin Miao.

However, at this time, there was still a little water on the edge of the track, so Qin Miao's speed had decreased to a certain extent, but Qin Miao's speed was not slow compared to Verstappen, and this little speed loss was not serious.

And Verstappen has been suppressing Qin Miao's line, just like Qin Miao defended Leclerc, directly blocking his cornering angle, preventing Qin Miao from taking the normal driving line, so that Qin Miao's speed will inevitably be greatly affected when entering T2.

ps. Today there are only 4000 ......
