Although Norris's position has not changed much, because of this mistake, the pressure on Norris, who was originally relatively calm on the track, has doubled.

On lap 48, Qin Miao's speed had a significant drop, and Qin Miao, who was still about 1.8 seconds behind Hamilton, had reached 2.1 seconds because of the rain on the track.

After 48 laps, Qin Miao immediately said in the team TR: "I don't care, I'm going to pit in the next lap." ”

Although there was rain on the track, it only fell on the T4, T5, T6 and T7 corners, and the course conditions did not deteriorate in the first and third time periods.

But Qin Miao still wanted to pit after the end of this lap.

Qin Miao's speed in these corners is too much, and he can't do it without making a pit stop.

Seeing that Qin Miao was so resolute, the team had no reason to refuse.

After receiving Frankie's notice, all the technicians got up from their positions and took out a brand new set of semi-rain tires from the rack where Qin Miao's tires were stored.

There was some surprise that Qin Miao wanted to pit so resolutely at this time, but the team was quite happy that Qin Miao could pit at this time.

Because Qin Miao's early pit stop and tire change can provide Hamilton with a reference, that is, under the track conditions at this time, how fast to run out of semi-rain tires.

If Qin Miao's speed on semi-wet tires is the same as Hamilton's hard tyres, the team will also call Hamilton in the next lap to change to semi-wet tyres.

After Qin Miao informed the team, Hamilton's track engineer also told Hamilton about Qin Miao's situation in the team TR, and asked him if he wanted to pit and change tires like Qin Miao.

At this time, Hamilton didn't think about it so much, at this time he was still entangled with Norris, constantly putting pressure on Norris, and when he heard the team's problems, he didn't think about it, and replied directly: "No." ”

By the time Norris reached the second time segment of lap 48, it was clear from the television footage that the grey rain had fallen.

And in T5, also in the second time period, Norris once again rushed off the track, but once again returned to the track without danger.

Hamilton also slowed down a bit because of the increased rain in the second time period.

So even though Norris was out of the track in the same place, the time gap between Hamilton and Norris didn't shorten, but it widened to 2.5 seconds as Hamilton slowed down.

Not to mention Qin Miao, the time gap between him and Hamilton at this time came to 3 seconds.

And it is foreseeable that if Qin Miao continues to run on the track, he will be pulled further away by Hamilton.

At the end of lap 48, Qin Miao finally pitted, while Norris and Hamilton were still outside.

Qin Miao's side is a personal problem, he really can't run too fast with dry tires in the rainy state.

From the second time period just now, Norris and Hamilton's speed slowed down, but despite this, Qin Miao was still pulled away by Hamilton for almost 1 second in one lap, which can be seen.

And before the lap was over, Hamilton told the team TR that although it was raining on the track, there was no water on the track and there was no serious drop in grip.

As a result, neither driver had the idea of pitting at this time, but continued to fight for their championship podium on the track.

On the 49th lap, the rain gradually became heavier.

Qin Miao because of the speed advantage accumulated before, after coming out of the pit lane, he was a slow car in front and back, and his ranking was still third without change, and the driver behind him was Pérez, and Pérez had a time gap of 21 seconds from Qin Miao at this time.

So at this time, Qin Miao didn't need to think about anything else, he finished the race with peace of mind, and looked forward to Hamilton and Norris having some accidents because of the heavy rain in the end.

Of course, Qin Miao at this time began to have some doubts, Hamilton and Norris wouldn't run directly with dry tires, right?

If that's the case...... What about your own location?

By the end of lap 49, the rain was heavier, half of the course was raining, and the rain on the second time period had changed from light to moderate.

Norris' track engineer asked Norris during the team TR: "Lando, would you like to change to the semi-wet tyres?" ”

At this time, Norris has to control his sliding car, and he also has to keep an eye on Hamilton behind him, preventing him from overtaking him, and is in a state of mental tension.

The TR of the team suddenly asked him such a question, which frightened him, so in the TR he replied loudly: "NO! ”

It was clear that the lure of the title and Hamilton behind him put a lot of pressure on Norris.

But despite this, he still has his own judgments and ideas.

Norris, who is very talented in rain warfare, feels that the rain is still under control.

Norris felt he could continue to run the full race on dry tyres, as there were only four laps left before the end of the race.

And although it was raining on the track at this time, the rain was not uncontrollable, and even a few corners where it was still raining had stopped.

This discovery gave Norris some confidence and strengthened his determination to finish the race on hard tyres.

Hamilton is also capable of continuing to hold on to the track like Norris.

However, the team found that Qin Miao's speed was not slower than Hamilton, and Hamilton was directly recalled.

Hamilton, who made the pit stop, still complained a little, but he had all entered, and this matter could only be like this.

After Hamilton came out of the pit lane, he just landed 2 seconds in front of Qin Miao.

Hamilton was 25 seconds from Norris and three laps to go.

It can be said that Norris, who was five seconds slower than Hamilton on hard tyres, won the race and broke his career record to win the first race of his career.

As long as he doesn't have an accident on the track......

The Mercedes team actually knows what Norris and McLaren are thinking.

But without much risk, Mercedes can compete with two drivers in their team for the championship.

But Verstappen's performance in today's race was obviously not good, and he was still in eighth place after being pitted by the team, behind Sainz.

Today's race was a great opportunity for the two Mercedes drivers to close the gap between them and Verstappen.

Therefore, compared to the sub-race championship of this race, the Mercedes team wants the two drivers to maintain the 2nd and 3rd positions and finish the race safely.

Because of this, there is a picture of Hamilton making a pit stop to change tires.

After Hamilton came to Qin Miao, he didn't wait for the team to take the initiative to mention to Hamilton, and Hamilton, who found that Qin Miao was behind him, took the initiative to slow down and return his position to Qin Miao.

After surpassing Hamilton, Qin Miao returned to the second position, and Hamilton was in third place at this time.

Although it is natural to return the position to Qin Miao, Hamilton's operation still makes him a lot of fans in China.

Regardless of Hamilton's previous behaviour, he didn't care about the controversial driving and crashing on the track.

Of course, most domestic fans like Qin Miao, after all, Qin Miao is the only Chinese driver in the paddock at this time, and if you want to find a sense of substitution, you can only find it on Qin Miao.

On lap 50, Norris still didn't choose to make a pit stop.

Although he was chased by Qin Miao for more than 6 seconds in the last lap, there were only 3 laps left before the end of the race, and the time gap between Norris and Qin Miao was still 18 seconds.

Even if Qin Miao chased Norris for 6 seconds every lap in the next round, Qin Miao could only catch up with Norris before the end of the game, and there was no way to overtake him.

After realizing that the time gap between himself and Norris was 3 laps of the race that could not be made up, Qin Miao did not pay attention to Norris in front of him, but began to pay attention to his teammate Hamilton behind him.

Although Hamilton has returned the place that rightfully belonged to him.

But the game was not over at this time, and the team did not say that Hamilton could not continue to attack Qin Miao after returning the position to Qin Miao.

And bringing his perspective into Hamilton, Qin Miao himself felt that he could not give up a great opportunity to shorten the gap with his teammates.

So if nothing else, Hamilton will definitely be attacking himself in the last three laps.

Although it is difficult for the drivers' information to circulate between teams, as teammates, Hamilton and Qin Miao know each other's driving habits.

And Qin Miao has an obvious weakness, that is, the ability to fight in the rain is weak.

And now? It happened to be raining.

……

Hamilton's idea is relatively simple, after returning Qin Miao's position, Hamilton doesn't owe Qin Miao anything.

Now that he is doing something to Qin Miao, it is just a competition among normal drivers, and it cannot rise to the height of morality.

So in the first timing period of lap 51, Hamilton began to discharge against the rain, quickly shortening the time gap with Qin Miao.

Qin Miao's ability to control his car has decreased in the rainy state, not that his defensive IQ has gone offline.

After seeing Hamilton's movements, he knew what the opponent was thinking, so he started to defend all the way into the big straight.

By the time the two reached the braking point of T2 on lap 51, the time gap between the two had reached 0.7 seconds.

The director can be regarded as a happy trouble at this time.

Norris in front of him struggled on the track with an 18-second advantage, slipping at almost every corner.

And Qin Miao and Hamilton, the two Mercedes drivers in the back, started fighting again.

He really didn't know what kind of picture to show the audience for a while.

However, unlike the happiness of the on-site director, Meiben's P room was quiet for a while.

Why are these two fighting again, the key is that it is still raining now, but if one of them does not operate well......

Toto's brow was really jumping at this point, but he had no reason to stop the fight between the two drivers now, and all he could do at this time was to pray that the two masters would listen to what he had just said and not do anything stupid in the field.

It's just that the weather on the field has changed far beyond everyone's expectations.

The two Mercedes drivers had just passed T2 into the long corner of T3 when the rain started to get heavier.

"Hey, it's getting rainy!" Brother Bing saw the sudden increase in rain, and said with some surprise: "If the rain is heavy, Norris's position is likely to be unsaved."

Does this mean that Qin Miao! Qin Miao has a great hope of winning the championship! ”

Of course, at this time, the two drivers of Meiben did not think so much, they were still thinking about whether the heavier rain would bring them any advantages and so on.

On the other hand, the director has already given the camera to Norris of McLaren.

Due to the sudden heavy rain in the second time session, there was already standing water on the track at this time.

This means that the dry ground tires that Norris insists on using at this time are completely useless.

By the time Norris got into T4, it was obvious that he was particularly slippery.

Acceleration out of corners is difficult.

By the time we get to the T5, the water mist behind the car obscures 70 percent of the view of the drivers behind them.

Therefore, when Qin Miao and Hamilton came to the T5 corner, Qin Miao suddenly found that a McLaren appeared in front of him.

The first time she saw that McLaren, Qin Miao thought that she had set a trap on the ninth, and there was more than Riccar.

But if you take a closer look at the driver ranking data on your steering wheel monitor, isn't this Norris?

Thinking of the current rain and Norris's tires, it is not incomprehensible that Qin Miao chased Norris for more than ten seconds in just one time segment.

"Great! Norris's decision-making mistake gave Qin Miao a chance, a great opportunity, now Qin Miao is bound to win the position of the champion, as long as Qin Miao defends Hamilton's attack, this championship will be there! Fei Ge said excitedly.

"That's right, with Qin Miao's defensive ability, it's not too difficult for him to hold Hamilton's offense, and it's still raining now, so it's even easier without DRS." Zhou Haoran also said.

Now the live broadcaster has no worries about which picture to cut into the broadcast stream.

Because of this small straight between T5 and T6, Qin Miao, Hamilton and Norris all appeared in the same picture.

At this time, Norris's speed was really slow, because of the problem of water accumulation, Norris's tire temperature dropped rapidly, which made the already weak grip even worse.

So when Qin Miao and Hamilton passed through T6 one after the other and came to T7, Qin Miao came to a place 0.3 seconds behind Norris.

That's right, Qin Miao directly relied on a small straight road to completely catch up with Norris this time.

Because of Norris's tire problems, his braking point was much, much earlier than Qin Miao and Hamilton.

At this time, Norris realized that his choice not to pit and change tires was wrong because of the sudden increase in rain, and Norris at this time can be said to regret not being at the beginning.

Although he knew that his speed was not as fast as Qin Miao and Hamilton.

But seeing that Qin Miao and Hamilton, who were originally 16 seconds behind him, chased him within 1 second in just one time segment, Norris's heart was full of unwillingness.

So seeing that Qin Miao was about to overtake his car at this corner, the unwilling Norris did not directly let Qin Miao over, but took an inside defensive line.

Norris didn't have any thoughts of harming others or himself, he was just a knee-jerk action after he was in a hurry.

Seeing this, Qin Miao naturally relied on the advantage of his half-rain tires in the grip of rainy days, and prepared to directly surpass Norris from the outside.

And Hamilton saw that the route of the outside line had been blocked by Qin Miao and Norris teaming up, if he didn't want to lose too much speed and lose this opportunity to surpass Qin Miao, then he had to take the risk of taking the inside line.

Hamilton knew the risks of doing so, but there were only two laps to go.

Originally, Qin Miao's defensive ability was strong, but now he finally caught an opportunity to surpass him, and if he missed this game, it was very likely that he would never find such an opportunity again.

Then from the aerial perspective, you can see two Mercedes, one McLaren, and so the three cars entered the T7 side by side.

Just when everyone thought that after the bend, it would be a battle of the dragons.

There was another accident on the field.

Norris's tires lock up when he brakes.

It was raining, and it was a wheel-to-wheel battle with other drivers, and Norris was still on dry tyres, and it was normal for the tires to lock up at this time.

But when Norris's tires locked, it happened to be when Qin Miao slowed down into the corner.

Only heard: "Bump." "A bang.

Qin Miao, who entered the corner on the outside line, was directly hit by Norris, who was out of control of the car, from the side.

Fortunately, because Norris braked earlier, Qin Miao's car was in front, so this impact was Norris's left front wheel hitting the side box and floor of Qin Miao's car.

At the same time, Qin Miao's left front wheel crushed the left front nose end plate of the Norris car.

Under the action of inertia, this end plate slides directly off the track and into the buffer zone.

Fortunately, Qin Miao's tires did not burst because of this.

However, Qin Miao's tire grip, which was already at the limit, was directly knocked out by Norris's collision.

Fortunately, the speed of the two of them in this corner was not fast, and although Qin Miao was a little confused when he was hit at the first time, he still chose to hit the steering wheel under the effect of instinct.

Although Qin Miao relied on his body and car sense to make the most correct way to deal with it at this time, he almost hit his head against the parapet.

But to put it mildly, Qin Miao stopped just before he was about to hit the parapet.

After that, Qin Miao showed off her driving skills again, burned the tire on the spot in the rainy state, turned around, and drove back to the track.

Norris wasn't so lucky.

The end plate of the left front nose wing was cracked, although his left front wheel was not damaged like Qin Miao, and the suspension looked fine, but the balance of Norris racing was directly destroyed.

On the spot, spin in place.

Stopped on the track with his head facing back.

Unlike Qin Miao, who uses semi-rain tires, Qin Miao, who uses semi-rain tires, knows that the grip of the tires will recover after the tire speed comes down, so he can turn around by burning tires at this time, but Norris uses dry tires, and if he wants to return to the track, he can only honestly reverse and drive up.

……

"Huh?"

"Qin Miao, Qin Miao was hit by Norris!"

The three commentators of Five Star Sports suddenly exclaimed sadly after seeing the changes on the field: "How can this be!" Qin Miao's championship podium is gone! ”

"Why, although Norris ran a little hard in front, there was no such mistake from beginning to end, why did there be a problem at this time." Feige's face was full of disbelief and pity.

"The good news is that it seems that Qin Miao's car has not been damaged too much by this impact, and it can continue to run, and at this time Verstappen is still more than a minute away from them, at least there is no need to worry about Qin Miao's second position being taken by Verstappen." Zhou Haoran was surprised and reassured the fans who were watching the live broadcast of five-star sports.

Although it is a pity that the championship is not due to Norris's mistake, at least after this game, the point gap between Qin Miao and Hamilton will not be stretched too much.

On the field, when Qin Miao entered the corner, he found that Norris was really blindsided when he hit him directly.

After he instinctively rescued the car, Qin Miao realized what had just happened.

Someone torpedoed.

Qin Miao, who often plays "iRacing" and "ACC", is no stranger to being torpedoed, especially after being recognized by someone running a race on iRacing.

Most of Qin Miao's fans didn't run away from the race, so they tried to follow Qin Miao.

And those fans who have opinions about Qin Miao are basically retaliating against Qin Miao in the game.

Torpedoes, blocking the track, PIT, all routines are used on Qin Miao.

But in reality, it was still on the F1 field, and it was really the first time Qin Miao had been torpedoed.

After reacting, Qin Miao immediately went to see the time gap between himself and the first place at this time.

And the numbers displayed on the steering wheel were so ruthless and ruthless in Qin Miao's eyes.

Hamilton +13.1s

Qin Miao: 0

Norris - 4.7 seconds

When he saw this data, Qin Miao's heart was really half cold.

"Norris, my !! of Amiros"

After Qin Miao returned to the track, she began to send a cordial greeting to Norris in TR as soon as she arrived: "Damn, you don't know how to drive?" Won't you drive home to play your *game.,Can't you revoke your *super driver's license** to him**? ”

The relationship is good, but because of Norris's mistake, Qin Miao is also unlucky, and Qin Miao's mood will not be too good.

However, at this time, Qin Miao scolded badly, but this was mainly because of the influence of adrenaline.

When the race was over and he got off the car and looked back on the matter, Qin Miao would not be so angry.

The biggest feeling is still helpless, why did I become this unlucky guy?

Wouldn't it work to change Hamilton?

Why me?
