188: Foresight
There is ice cream in the back office of the team house, but it is for the team's civilian staff and mechanics, and the drivers will not eat it.
And after Barber saw Toto's eyes, he could only helplessly spread his hands, especially he was just a part-time worker, at the beginning, Qin Miao would listen to himself, and he would strictly implement what he said if he could eat or not.
But after a long time, Qin Miao found out that Barber was not a serious person in daily life, and then began to let himself go on the spot.
Bobble was a little desperate at that time, after all, Qin Miao really ate whatever he wanted at that time, and Bobble's professional knowledge told him that in the near future, Qin Miao's weight would take off completely with wings.
Realizing this, Barber even had the urge to resign.
It's just that after he got Qin Miao's new month's physical test report, he was a little dumbfounded to find that the high-calorie junk food that Qin Miao ate in his stomach seemed to have no way to digest it, and it was not converted into energy and fat and stored in Qin Miao's body.
Just vanished out of thin air.
After another month, after making sure that Qin Miao really didn't get fat by eating anything, and the quality of his body had not increased, no matter how he ate, it would not have any negative impact on Qin Miao's body, Barber also began to rot, you can eat whatever you like, Lao Tzu doesn't care.
As for why Toto didn't know, Barber didn't know.
He had submitted a report to the team anyway, but it was clear that Toto hadn't seen the report written by Barber.
Thursday passed like this, and there was no word for the night.
Friday, the day when the first and second exercises begin.
In the past, Qin Miao seemed to be in full swing to practice the game, but now Qin Miao seems that it is not complicated, when to do what Qin Miao has a clear understanding in his heart, and he is no longer confused.
There is nothing to repeat in the first and second exercises, just driving the car to prepare for the Sunday race, running the data, and looking for the feeling of driving.
The only thing worth mentioning is that during the second practice, because the avoidance was not timely, Kimi blocked Qin Miao's qualifying flight circle simulation.
However, Qin Miao, who rescued the car in a thrilling way, did not show any impatience, but just told the team that the flight circle was blocked, and there was no follow-up.
But what Qin Miao didn't know was that his words were released.
And it was because after Qin Miao was blocked, she didn't vent like the emotions that a normal person should have, and her mouth was fragrant.
Instead, he calmly reported to the team, coupled with Qin Miao's strong performance on the field and the brotherhood he and Hamilton showed.
What was supposed to be a middling rating in the paddock has been reversed.
At this time, most fans feel that Qin Miao is a young man who values love and righteousness and has unfathomable strength, and it can be said that Qin Miao's reputation is good overall.
Saturday.
Today, there will be three practice sessions and qualifying.
As soon as the third practice began, Qin Miao hurriedly ran into the garage from the back door of the P room of the Meiben team.
Looking at this young man in a hurry, many staff members who were older than Qin Miao showed knowing smiles.
Only young people like Qin Miao can have such vitality and movements, and looking at such young people, they all feel a lot younger.
Because Qin Miao also began to participate in various interviews and pre-race activities like other drivers, Qin Miao was inevitably late for the team meeting, just like Hamilton.
And he is in such a hurry now because the interview just now took him too much time, and if he didn't trot over, he might not be able to catch up with the three exercises.
Looking at Qin Miao, who came to his racing car after coming to the P room, began to put on his equipment, and jumped on the racing car and drove out after wearing it, Toto shook his head with a smile.
Alison, who was sitting next to Toto, took advantage of the data that the two cars were out to run three exercises, and the surroundings were a lot quieter, and after turning off the microphone of his headphones, he lifted the corner of the headphones and leaned over to Toto's side, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I still can't figure out what was the purpose of your order in the first place?" ”
Toto also turned off the microphone on his headphones and stared at the lap times of the two riders as he said, "This is all in the past." ”
"Come less, hurry up." Alisson clearly doesn't eat Toto's set.
Toto glanced at Alisson helplessly, Toto knew that if he couldn't give an explanation that satisfied the other party, he would not give up, "When I found Qin Miao, he had just won the F2 championship, although he was talented and dazzling in F2, but we all know that F2 is not F1 after all."
So I didn't think he was going to be as brilliant in F1 as he was in F2......"
Alisson shrugged: "It seems that you underestimated Qin Miao." ”
Toto nodded helplessly: "Yes, I underestimated him, not only me, Ferrari, Red Bull, everyone underestimated him."
Can you believe that you recruited a young driver who was ready to be entrusted with a task after a few years of development, but he showed great quality in his first race and was able to go back and forth with one of the championship candidates. ”
"Isn't that a good thing?" Alisson was puzzled.
Toto: "Maybe for other teams, but for us ......"
Alisson thought of Hamilton, then Rosberg, then Verstappen and Ricciardo, and then thought of these people and the stupidities they had done, and sighed, "yes, it's really not a good thing for us." ”
"A talented and talented driver like Qin Miao, once he completely adapts to the rhythm of F1 and begins to show his fangs, he is bound to snatch points with Hamilton, and this year is a critical period for Hamilton to hit the eight championships and surpass Michael Schumacher's historical status. Toto confessed.
Alisson was stunned: "Because of this, you let Qin Miao, who has a chance to win the championship, sacrifice for Hamilton?"
However, if you do this, you will not avoid the infighting between the two drivers, and it may even exacerbate the conflict. ”
But Toto just smiled at his CTO and said, "But the end result is not bad, is it?" And Qin Miao didn't lose anything. ”
Alisson was stunned for a moment, and recalled the current state of brotherhood and brotherhood between Hamilton and Qin Miao, plus Qin Miao also won the championship in that game.
He looked at Toto with some suspicion: "Did you calculate all this?" ”
Toto waved his hand indifferently: "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have such strong calculation and layout skills, I just had a brain pump at the time, and I gave a wrong team order, and it was too late to take it back, and I paid the price for it." ”
While it's likely that the truth is as Toto claims, Alisson still suspects that things are not as simple as Toto says.
It's just that he has no proof.
At the end of the three exercises, Qin Miao was the first to return to the maintenance area.
After getting out of the car, Qin Miao first hurriedly went to the toilet.
After returning from the toilet, Qin Miao hurriedly adjusted the settings of his racing car during the break in the middle.
What Qin Miao didn't notice was that Toto and Alisson were both silently observing him from a distance.
……
Three p.m. local time in Spain and nine p.m. domestic time are extremely comfortable times for both Spanish and domestic audiences.
Qualifying is about to begin.
Qin Miao was ready in his car early.
Although the gearbox broke after using his skills in the main race stage last week, Qin Miao still gave a buff to his car before the start of the game, after all, this set of actions is not only a buff for Qin Miao's car with system skills, but also a small habit and psychological comfort for Qin Miao before the start of each game.
After taking this buff, Qin Miao will have less worries and worries in her heart.
After finishing their pre-race preparations, the team put a set of soft tires on Qin Miao.
In fact, with Qin Miao's ability, it is possible to stably enter Q2 with old neutral tires in Q1, but considering the possible traffic conditions in Q1, the team finally chose to give Qin Miao a new set of soft tires.
Because running on soft tires, even if you encounter any unexpected situation on the track, you can rely on the advantage of soft tires to get back the lost speed in time.
And during the time that Qin Miao was preparing, there were already drivers waiting at the exit of the pit lane.
The camera cuts over to take a look, Ma Zeping, Mick, Latifi.
That's okay, these guys do need to make valid laps in advance.
Qin Miao went out when there were 13 minutes left before the Q1 stoppage.
Qin Miao's track engineer Frankie found a suitable flying lap window for Qin Miao.
Dodged a few cars during the warm-up lap, and then Qin Miao started her first flight lap in qualifying at the Catalunya circuit.
Qin Miao felt that he was in good shape in the first time session, and the rhythm of the second time session was also very good, and there were no mistakes he often made in practice matches.
"Qin Miao's side also began to fly, and the first section directly brushed purple, which was directly two seconds faster than Norris in second, it seems that he is in good shape." Brother Bing also noticed that Qin Miao had started his own flying circle.
Fei Ge said with great relief: "When Qin Miao retired from the Portugal race, I was worried that Qin Miao's state would be affected by a retirement, after all, the spirit of many talented drivers will be dissipated after the first retirement.
But whether it is the three practice matches this week or the current qualifying match, Qin Miao's state has proved to us that Qin Miao is in good shape. ”
Zhou Haoran said: "Qin Miao's mentality is really good, and his adjustment ability is also very strong, he is still so strong in the next race after the only retirement in F2, and Qin Miao's adjustment ability and mental stability have begun to show signs since then." ”
"And Qin Miao's strength is really happy for us Chinese fans."
"Yes, after watching F1 for so many years, I just fantasized that one day I would be able to see our Chinese drivers on the podium of F1, but even if it is a fantasy, I just want to finish third like Qin Miao did in the first race."
Brother Bing teased: "Even if I dreamed and fantasized, I never thought that there would be a Chinese driver who would become the champion of F1, right?" ”
The other two commentators also laughed and agreed.
In the end, Fei Ge put an end to this topic with one sentence: "I only hope that Qin Miao can always maintain this mentality." ”
……
And while the three commentators were chatting, Qin Miao's second timed segment was also finished.
The second time period was still purple, and Qin Miao's rhythm in the third time period was also very good, although there were other cars on the track, they did not block Qin Miao.
When Qin Miao crossed the line, the result came to 1:17.555.
Straight to the first in Q1.
Qin Miao naturally saw his achievements, and the three purples displayed on the steering wheel also let Qin Miao know that he had temporarily come to the first position.
"The results are very good, our results can be stable in Q1, and we don't have to run in the next flight lap." After Qin Miao finished this lap, Frankie said in the TR.
"Okay." Qin Miao also had this intention.
After returning to the garage after the first lap of Q1, Qin Miao really didn't come out again.
Seeing this, fans who knew what Qin Miao thought scolded angrily: Lazy dog Qin Lao Er!
In the end, Qin Miao also unexpectedly entered Q2 in the first position.
Originally, Qin Miao's thrilling promotion in the qualifying stage was gone, and for a while, it made those viewers who were used to Qin Miao's lack of strength until Q3 a little unaccustomed.
Of course, that familiar feeling from the audience soon returned.
Q2。
Qin Miao's first flight lap was the soft tire that he had run a lap in Q1, and after charging the track for another lap, Qin Miao began to speed on the track again.
Then after the first flight lap of Q2, Qin Miao's time came to 1:17.566.
Although this result was 0.011 seconds slower than his first flight lap, don't forget to consider Qin Miao's tire wear problem, Qin Miao's overall speed is faster after running this lap.
It is worth mentioning that this result is still a stable result in Q3, because the cut-off line for Q3 is 1 minute and 18 seconds.
Although Qin Miao is 0.4 seconds faster than the closing line, this 0.4 seconds is a huge gap in the racing industry, and it is not something that can be crossed.
"I think it's enough for me to finish this lap in Q2."
Qin Miao also knew this, so he said a word in TR, and then prepared to leave work early like Q1.
But at this moment, Toto's voice was directly inserted into Qin Miao and Frankie's TR: "Qin, I think the results of this lap are a little slow, you run one more lap." ”
Toto's temples bulged slightly, and the FIA's drivers' tyre reserves showed that Hamilton had a normal reserve of spare tyres, which is the normal reserve for every driver's weekend.
And what about Qin Miao?
One set of hard tires, two sets of neutral tires, and if the soft tires Q2 are finished, if they don't run according to Qin Miao's intentions, Qin Miao will still have four sets of soft tires left in Q3.
Even if two sets of soft tires are thrown in Q3, Qin Miao can still have one set of hard tires, two sets of neutral tires, and one set of soft tires in the weekend's main race stage.
How?
Do you think you'll be able to take these tires home and lay their cubs after the race, or what?
Qin Miao: "...... Oh. ”
After returning to the pit area, Qin Miao was pushed back to the P room with the car, and then the engineers replaced it with a new set of soft tires while charging the battery of the car, and wrapped a warm tire blanket on the soft tires.
During this time, what Qin Miao could do was to look at the results of other drivers and the broadcast screen on the spot through the two screens in front of her flip-flops.
Qin Miao was released again when there were still four minutes before the Q2 stoppage, but this lap Qin Miao made a mistake in the second timing section, and the oil was slightly deeper when passing the two combination corners of No. 7 and No. 8, and the rear wheel of the car skidped.
Although it was saved, the results of this lap were ruined.
However, Qin Miao still relied on her first flight lap in Q2 to enter Q3 in seventh place.
Seeing Qin Miao's Q2 promotion, Qin Miao's fans shouted: The familiar feeling of cerebral infarction is back.
