200: A thousand miles of missed fractions

Q2, Qin Miao's performance was still stable, 1:10.997, seventh promotion.

As with Q1's rhythm, a new set of soft tyres ran a flight lap and never came out.

is also because of Qin Miao's running style, fans hate to give Qin Miao a lazy nickname.

What if you run a lap of tires and run a lap? You'll die if you work a little longer, right?

I can't blame the fans for their deep resentment, after all, compared to other drivers, Qin Miao is indeed a little too salty in the qualifying stage, except for Q3, Q1 and Q2, as long as there is a result that can steadily enter the next link of the flight circle, Qin Miao will never come out to run the second lap.

It was as if running an extra flight lap would kill him.

Q3, this is the link that Qin Miao's fans are most looking forward to.

Because Qin Miao will only show his full strength when he is in Q3.

However, although Qin Miao successfully entered Q3, many people are still pessimistic about Qin Miao's main match tomorrow.

Because at Monaco, a 10-place penalty essentially cut off a driver's chance of a podium.

As far as Qin Miao's offensive ability in F2 and F1 is concerned, no one thinks that Qin Miao's offensive ability will be as perfect as his defensive ability, which can give Verstappen a doubtful life.

Of course, there are also many fans who have unconditional trust in Qin Miao.

The two sides argued endlessly on the Internet about the results of Qin Miao's game.

Regardless of the public opinion on the Internet, Qin Miao didn't think about tomorrow at this time, but tried his best to stand as good as possible.

On the first lap of Q3, Qin Miao used the old soft tires used in Q1.

The first person to run in Q3 was Verstappen, and the second was Qin Miao.

Verstappen was on new soft tyres on the first lap and the first lap was 1:10.505.

Ranked first for the time being.

And after Qin Miao's first flight lap was finished, the time only came to 1 minute 10 seconds 900.

All three are green, but they can't match Verstappen's speed.

At the same time, the two Ferraris behind him also began to exert their strength, and Leclerc, who was fighting at home, not only killed Qin Miao in the first lap of Q3, but also killed Verstappen, and came to the first place with a score of 0.23 faster than Verstappen.

Should it be said that it deserves to be a home game? On this inevitable path for Leclerc to go to school, he showed absolute strength.

After the first flight lap was over, Qin Miao returned to the pit area to refuel and change tires.

In the last lap of Q3, Qin Miao needs to change to a new set of soft tires, and after this set of soft tires is used, Qin Miao will have a new set of soft tires left in the main race stage, two sets of medium tires and one set of hard tires.

When there were still 3 minutes left before the end of the game, Qin Miao was released and began to warm up the tire circle.

The main reason why it was released so early was because I was worried about traffic problems.

Soon Qin Miao started her last lap.

Monaco's T1 is particularly difficult because you have to turn while braking hard, and the speed at the end of the straight is about 290 km/h, and the slightest mistake can get you up the wall, which is very exciting.

Although the brakes are heavy in T1, when you come to the center of the corner, you have to control the braking force, test the grip limit of the car, and then exit the corner.

There is also a saying about how much shoulder you eat when you go out of a corner, if you eat too much, the car will be ejected, and if you eat too little, it will not be enough to the limit, and the speed will be very slow.

Countless details are piled up in the T1 corner, and whether this corner is perfect or not is directly related to the speed of the entire flight circle.

Fortunately, Qin Miao's countless exercises played a role at this moment, and muscle memory made Qin Miao's T1 perfect.

Get as close to the outside of the track as you can when you get out of T1 and go full throttle when going uphill, which is not much to say.

T2 is a false corner, but T3 can't cut too early, turn a little late, cut to the first corner of T3 and then return to the middle of the track, and then cut the center of T3 out of the corner.

Step 2 is important because cutting this bend will keep the car on the far left side of the track, which will naturally give you a wider approach and speed.

T4 went down to fourth gear, and because you couldn't see the center of the bend when you came out of the corner, you had to go a little bigger.

Of course, for people like Qin Miao, who can memorize the route of this track, it basically has no effect on him if he can't see the cornering line.

It is worth mentioning that there is another detail on this track that Qin Miao only discovered after he arrived at the scene, that is, there is a small bulge on the left side of the T4 track, and after the corner, you need to go to the right side to avoid this bulge, if you don't dodge, the car will pass through a small bulge, and the rear wheel will lose some traction.

The next few turns are the handle ghostly.

These corners are as difficult as T1's.

Because it is downhill, you have to brake hard, but because the inside of this corner is relatively low, the center of gravity of the braking of the first two tires is different.

So if you brake too hard, the two tires on the front wheel are particularly easy to lock up because of the pressure imbalance.

The brakes are light, the braking force is not enough, a lot of time is lost, and it is even possible to stuff directly on the guardrail.

And these corners need to be experienced and felt by the drivers themselves, and there are so many things that need to be understood and paid attention to after this corner.

The average driver is probably familiar with the corner and knows how to do it.

But the really top drivers don't have that much trouble when they get here, it's all about their own feel.

If you feel that the brakes are as deep as you want, then step on them as deep as you want.

When you feel like you can give oil, you can give oil when you want.

The world is like this, one percent of talent is more useful than ninety-nine percent of the sweat of the average person.

This was the case when Qin Miao crossed this curve.

Qin Miao didn't even remember the braking points in these corners, and he completely relied on his own car feeling to find the braking points and cornering routes.

But the annoying thing is that Qin Miao's handling of these corners is much better than his teammate Hamilton, and it is only a little worse than Leclerc, who is fighting at home.

I won't go into too much detail about these few corners here, mainly because there are too many details, but Qin Miao relied on his own feelings when he cornered.

T8, this corner of the way to pass is different, normal like this kind of right-angle corner, generally brake later and then cut the center of the corner, to get a better speed out of the corner.

However, the T8 position can cut the center of the bend at a small angle, because the grip of this piece of the center is very strong, so there is no need to worry about losing time if the speed is too fast.

Although the angle of such a corner will be a bit large, and the oil can be refueled later after the exit, the time saved in the entry and exit of the corner is more than the time advantage gained in the tunnel in the big straight after braking late.

It may seem that on the broadcast screen, the environment and visibility inside the tunnel are actually quite good.

But the view from inside the car is not very good, and you can barely see anything in the tunnel.

But fortunately, the environment in the tunnel is not complicated, with Qin Miao's current understanding of the track and his own car, it is not an exaggeration to say that he can really finish this section of the tunnel with his eyes closed.

After coming out of the tunnel, you can't see the braking point, because the driver's angle of view is very low, and after leaving the tunnel, it is a downhill slope, and Qin Miao's braking point is just the downhill position.

Braking is also difficult in this place, because the downhill is the braking point, and if you brake too hard, the car's center of gravity will shift to the front wheels, and the load on the two rear tires will be reduced.

If the load on the rear wheels becomes smaller, it is easy to step on the rear wheels directly if the braking force is a little heavier, after all, the small load on the rear wheels also means that the inertia of the rear wheels is small.

With the terrifying efficiency of F1's brakes, it is really possible to pinch your rear wheels directly.

And the consequences of a rear wheel lock-up in this position are very serious, which Rosberg is well aware of.

After Qin Miao arrived here, he decisively adjusted the center of gravity of his car's braking forward, and after reaching the braking point, he stepped on the brakes and lowered the car to two gears.

Turn into the corner early, maintain your speed, you can go a little deeper into the corner, and the exit position after the center of Turn 10 is the slowest part of the track.

After passing this place, he began to slowly turn the oil and adjust the body out of the corner.

After that, it's more interesting, you can't cut the left guardrail like you cut the center of the corner, but go in a straight line, because only in this way can you get the best traction out of the corner, and the acceleration is the fastest.

Wait until you're about to hit the guardrail in front of you and then pull the car back to the track, so there's basically no loss of traction or speed.

The next T12 enters the corner in six gears, and the center of the bend is lowered to fifth gear, and this corner has to be taken extra carefully, because there are guardrails on both sides, there is no buffer zone, and naturally there is no room for error.

But it's one of the gentlest of the Monaco circuits, as it's a very regular way to turn compared to other corners, and many circuits have this type of corner.

The T13 and T14 are two false corners, and after getting out of the T12, the car can rely on its own strong downforce to go through the corners at full throttle.

The premise is to have a good angle, but it's not a difficult task for professional riders.

After that, there is another difficult corner.

T15, there is no good reference for this bend, Qin Miao generally chooses to follow the brake to slow down the speed, the shoulder of the T15 bend is basically the same as not, so when cornering, you can be infinitely close to the guardrail of the bend, but you can't touch the guardrail of the bend.

In terms of the kinetic energy of the speed entering the corner, if the angle is not well controlled, a light touch on the right front suspension of the car will basically be reimbursed.

However, Qin Miao's bend was perfect, visually speaking, it was completely brushing the parapet.

After exiting the corner, stop the brakes between the T15 and T16 corners and start refueling.

The shoulder of the bend of the T16 is hard to eat, but it has to be eaten again.

If you eat a little more here, the left front wheel of the car will bounce up and the rear wheel will also be bounced.

If both tires are bounced up, the car will lose grip for at least 0.1 seconds, which may not sound like a long time, but in motorsport it is enough to make or break a race.

The consequence of taking off for 0.1 seconds is that the car will crash directly into the parapet in front of it.

And if the shoulder of the road is less, the angle of the exit from the corner will not be enough, and the angle will not be enough, and the speed will not be enough, then your flight lap in this qualifying race will be in vain.

As strong as Verstappen, in this place is also the shoulder of the road over the wall.

Then came the T17, T18, and T19 combinations.

This combination bend has a lot of corners and lateral steering, so it's crucial here for braking control.

T17 not to mention, T18 has two bends, the first bend can be missed, but the second bend must be cut, and you can eat as many bends as you can.

After exiting the corner, quickly stick to the left side of the guardrail.

The exit of T19 is very important, because after the exit is the big straight of the start, which is also the corner that Qin Miao practiced the most before the race.

Because only if the corner is good enough for him to get enough chances to overtake on the next straight on the grid.

And Qin Miao didn't cut the center of the bend in this corner, but took a wider bend line.

After exiting the corner, go full throttle to cross the line.

"Okay, Qin Miao is here." As Qin Miao's No. 66 Meiben car passed through T19, Fei Ge said with some excitement.

The reason why the commentary is so excited is because Qin Miao brushed green in the first time period, and directly brushed purple in the second time period, which is 0.2 seconds faster than Leclerc in the home game, and 0.1 seconds faster than Leclerc as a whole.

Although as a commentator and spectator, they still like Leclerc, after all, there are powerful handsome guys, and they haven't won results at Monaco's home stadium for so many years, who doesn't want Leclerc to realize his dream at home in his hometown?

But if there are your own compatriots to compare, then it is self-evident that you are close and close.

Whether it is the three commentators, or the domestic fans who are watching this game, they all hope that Qin Miao can get enough dazzling results.

And it is a pity for the three commentators that with Qin Miao's final crossing line, Qin Miao's last timing segment is only displayed in green.

The final time was 1:10.350.

Qin Miao's time was only 0.04 seconds slower than Leclerc.

But it was these 0.04 seconds that made Qin Miao lose the first pole position of his career very regrettably.

The three commentators also sighed after seeing this achievement.

If you say that Qin Miao is 0.1 or 0.2 seconds slower than Leclerc, then the commentators can still accept it, but it is only four thousandths of a second slower, which is really a pity in the eyes of several commentators.

But before they could say more, a yellow flag suddenly appeared on the track, and when the broadcast camera cut over, they saw a Ferrari stuck on the guardrail of the T16 out of the corner, and the front nose wing was directly broken.

This is the shoulder I just talked about, the shoulder that eats less and the speed of the bend is slow, and if you eat too much, it is easy to be bounced up and go up to the parapet.

But this time Leclerc did not suffer on this shoulder, but cut too much when the T15 cut the corner, and the right front suspension hit the guardrail directly and broke on the spot.

Seriously, they should really be looking to Mei Ben to learn from how the vibranium suspension is made.

Soon, the Ferrari driver's name was given.

Driver No. 16 Leclerc. (End of chapter)
