Originally, because of the opportunity given by Leclerc, Qin Miao directly inherited the time gap between Leclerc and Norris when he surpassed Leclerc.

And when Verstappen overtook Norris, it affected Norris's driving rhythm to a certain extent, and the speed was not fast when he came out of T7, and then Qin Miao picked up this cheap.

It's only been 14 laps, and Qin Miao has already been in 7 positions.

On average, it goes up one position in two laps.

The speed of the pursuit is as terrifying as ever.

Many domestic fans began to cheer and celebrate on the spot after seeing this scene, although it was still a domestic night at this time, but many people rushed out of the window excitedly after seeing Qin Miao's overtaking, and yelled excitedly to vent their inner excitement.

The complaints and cordial greetings received by these fans will not be mentioned here for the time being.

After Qin Miao came to the fifth, Qin Miao didn't know exactly what Verstappen thought, but Qin Miao knew that Hamilton at this time was definitely in a state of full pressure.

There are still two positions left, and as long as he moves up to the top two positions, this season's Drivers' Championship will be completely out of the way with Hamilton.

And Hamilton's problems don't stop there, in addition to having to take first place in this game, he also has to defend against Verstappen's attack behind him.

So on the next lap after Verstappen's pit stop, lap 15, Hamilton followed and made a pit stop.

It's easy to guess why Hamilton pitted at this point, and that is to copy Red Bull's tactics, as long as I use the same tactics as you Verstappen, you can't beat me tactically.

Anyway, I have such a big advantage here, and the little time spent on the pit stop doesn't matter at all.

By the time Hamilton had also switched to hard tyres like Verstappen, he was second behind Pérez and in front of Sainz.

And at this time, the time gap between Hamilton and Verstappen is still 5 seconds.

That said, Verstappen's lap after pitting for white tyres was no faster than Hamilton's, and was even much slower.

It's just that all eyes are on Hamilton and Verstappen, and no one, or even very many, can notice that Hamilton is 10 seconds away from Hamilton at this time, and there is another Red Bull driver: Pérez.

Next, the game continued, Qin Miao was also a lot slower because of the problem of tire degradation, and Qin Miao at this time could only follow Verstappen very reluctantly, as for the opportunity to attack Verstappen, as long as Verstappen did not make a mistake, Qin Miao would obviously not be able to find it in a short time.

On lap 16, the drivers on the soft tyres on the track began to pit one after another.

This time period is considered to be the time window for the two stoppers.

On lap 17, after fully charging his car's battery and controlling the temperature of his car's tires to an optimal temperature, Pérez began to slow down and wait for Hamilton to catch up.

On the same lap, Verstappen completed the overtaking of Sainz, although there were some twists and turns in the middle, and Sainz's willingness to resist was extremely strong, but he still couldn't stand the huge performance gap between Red Bull and Ferrari cars, and in the end, Sainz could only helplessly watch Verstappen with DRS go away.

On lap 19, Hamilton chased down Pérez 1.11 seconds behind.

There was a 10-second gap between Pérez and Hamilton, and after Pérez started to slow down, Hamilton caught up with Pérez two laps later.

Hamilton was well aware that he could not have approached Pérez so quickly, and that either Pérez's car had a puncture or the tyres had dropped sharply over the cliff.

But either is unlikely to happen, because if Pérez's car blows out, all he should do is retire on the spot instead of continuing to race on the track.

As for tyres over the cliff point, it was even simpler, as Pérez had already run two laps in front of Hamilton, and if the tyres had crossed the cliff point, he would have pitted for a tyre change when he passed the pit entrance on the previous lap, rather than staying on the track and holding on.

So there is only one possibility for Pérez to slow down at this time, that is, Pérez takes the initiative to slow down and wants to help Verstappen and block Hamilton.

However, Hamilton did not think that Pérez would put much pressure on him, after all, Pérez used a set of soft tyres that had already run 21 laps.

Your Pérez's ability to protect tires is really awesome, and before Qin Miao entered the paddock, Pérez was indeed the driver with the first ability to protect tires.

But after seeing Qin Miao's ability to protect the fetus against the sky, and then looking at Perez's ability to protect the fetus, it is actually like that.

So Hamilton felt that even if Pérez could block himself for a while, it wouldn't be able to stay in the way for long, and as long as he came to the DRS straights, he could use the car's performance and tyre advantage to easily overtake Pérez on those straights.

In the same lap, Qin Miao chased into the DRS area behind Sainz.

However, just when Qin Miao was about to attack, on the 20th lap, Sainz actually chose to pit and change tires directly.

The driver who appeared in front of Qin Miao was replaced by Verstappen, and Verstappen was only 3.4 seconds away from Qin Miao at this time.

Hamilton, meanwhile, also caught up with Pérez on lap 20.

It is worth mentioning that Hamilton's timing of catching up with Pérez was poor for Pérez, who only caught up with Pérez after T5.

As we all know, after T5 is the longest straight on the Yas Marina Circuit, and this straight is also blessed by DRS.

What will happen next is actually a picture in the minds of most viewers.

And it was true, Hamilton used the car's ERS and DRS directly to force a pass over Pérez on the outside.

It's just that just when everyone on Red Bull's side thought the sky was going to fall, Pérez activated his own backup hidden energy.

Hamilton, meanwhile, after overtaking Pérez, did not continue to enter the corner along the inside of the track, but returned to the outside of the track to find the best angle to enter the corner.

But it was as if Red Bull had upgraded the car's brakes in this race, and after Hamilton reached the normal line of the track, Pérez forced his way into Hamilton's inside line with a knock on Red Bull's ancestral late brakes.

Hamilton, who was sitting in the middle of the car, looked at a Red Bull that suddenly appeared on the left side of his car, and suddenly felt that he was back in the T6 at the start.

The same corners, the same Red Bull cars, the same way into corners, the difference is only the driver in the car.

Hamilton also used Qin Miao's cornering style to face Aokang at this time, and T6 and T7 both took the cross line.

As soon as he got out of T7, Hamilton took advantage of the crossover to overtake Pérez and go into the next big straight.

Exactly the same as Qin Miao's time, Perez slightly loosened the throttle before entering the second stage of DRS detection point, so it can be seen that Hamilton passed this DRS detection point before Perez, so in the next big straight, Perez has DRS.

Then, the audience at the scene saw that Pérez turned on DRS and sucked Hamilton's wake and began to get close to Hamilton quickly.

Soon Pérez was getting closer to Hamilton and showed signs that he could overtake.

After sucking in the wake again, Pérez was ready to take a head on the inside, and Hamilton naturally couldn't let Pérez go so easily, so he also merged towards the inside of the track, ready to jam the road of Pérez's overtaking on the inside.

But Pérez doesn't have a grinning relationship at all, and even if he runs through the paint off the inside track, he has to surpass you Hamilton.

Hamilton didn't dare to make any aggressive defensive moves at this time, so after seeing that Pérez had already taken the lead on his inside, he had no choice but to give up this defense.

After that, the two went all the way to the braking point of T9.

The T9 is not a heavy braking point, and Hamilton, despite his control of the car's brakes, is unable to force his brakes into the inside line in this corner like Verstappen and Pérez, because there is no such angle in this corner.

So this time the defense Pérez used the DRS twice, and after swapping positions with Hamilton, he defended Hamilton's attack.

Therefore, F1 not only looks at the driver's personal ability, but also looks more at the team's research and development ability and the performance of the car.

If you throw a top driver like Hamilton or Qin Miao into a mid-table team, they may easily beat their team-mates in the team, but they will never compete with the likes of Mercedes and Red Bull for the championship in the races, and you will be thankful for a podium or two.

is like Aokang, who was surpassed by Qin Miao, if it weren't for Tsunoda's help, he would have been given seconds by Qin Miao in the DRS area between T5 and T6.

Red Bull Racing and the audience were naturally happy after seeing this scene, these two are top drivers, and the audience at the scene is naturally very enjoyable to see such a fight.

But to say that it is really happy, the happiest ones have to be the fans who like Qin Miao and the fans who come from afar in China.

Not to mention the excitement of the two's grappling this time, the most important thing is that Pérez blocked Hamilton from helping Verstappen gain an advantage, and also helped Qin Miao gain an advantage.

After all, the only driver in the field at this time who can still pose a threat to Qin Miao's position in the drivers' championship is Hamilton.

At this point, the eyes of Red Bull are no longer hostile and wary of the beginning of the season, and their eyes are full of tenderness and encouragement.

Come on, Pérez!

After these two big straights, the next part of the entire Yas Marina circuit is the most difficult to overtake, and there are no other good overtaking points until T5.

And, crucially, the entire third period was a slow and low corner.

Pérez then did everything in his power to suppress Hamilton's speed in this third time period.

So much so that after the entire third time period, Verstappen behind Hamilton chased Hamilton for a full four seconds.

One timed segment, four seconds!

Qin Miao is stupid when she picks up the wallet here.

Hamilton, on the other hand, began to complain in the team's TR and his mind was full of question marks.

No, what does Big Brother have to do with your Red Bull race? Why are you so active in helping Verstappen defend me?

As long as Qin Miao does not retire, it is impossible for this season's Drivers' Championship to fall into the hands of Verstappen.

Red Bull, on the other hand, naturally couldn't hear Hamilton's heart, and even if they did, they might just laugh it off.

It's true that Verstappen won't be able to win this race or even this season's Drivers' Championship without you, but if he overtakes you, at least Verstappen can't.

It's a big gamble, friend!

On the Red Bull side, when Pérez was overtaken by Hamilton before the braking point of T6, most of the Red Bull staff were already distraught.

Many of them even slumped in their chairs with pale faces.

Not only did they not win the final Drivers' Championship in this race, but they probably didn't even win this race.

But soon they experienced the feeling of riding a roller coaster, and after seeing Pérez's performance, they were all stunned for a moment.

Pérez and Hamilton came to the big straight together, even if there was a wake to suck, Hamilton didn't have DRS after all, and the ERS power was also used up in the two big straights just now.

So Hamilton on the big straight just tried to put pressure on Pérez, but after Pérez stood on the inside, Hamilton couldn't find the slightest possibility of overtaking Pérez on the big straight.

There was no good overtaking spot in the first time period after the Grand Straight, and Pérez continued to suppress Hamilton's pace.

The two soon came to T5 again.

By the time the pair reached this position on the previous lap, the time gap between Hamilton and Verstappen was nine seconds.

However, after Pérez's efforts for a full lap, the time gap between Verstappen and Hamilton was only 1.1 seconds.

Pérez single-handedly helped Verstappen reduce the 7.9-second gap between him and Hamilton.

If Verstappen finally defeated Hamilton in this race to win the race, and Qin Miao also withdrew due to an accident, and finally Verstappen won this year's drivers' championship by chance, he would have to give Pérez a knock.

And with the arrival of Verstappen, Pérez can be regarded as completing another big task of his own in this game.

And because the car's battery ran out, Pérez was no longer able to defend against Hamilton's attack in the next DRS zone.

So Pérez's speed has dropped dramatically.

In the end, before the brake point of the T6, Pérez was overtaken by Hamilton.

At this time, someone has to ask, since this defensive method is so awesome, why didn't Little Red Bull's Tsunoda use this set of tactics against Qin Miao?

W11：？

What grade do you AT02 have, dare to sit at a table with my W11 for dinner? I'll hit you in the face, and I'll kick you in the tail, and I'll kick you in the mailbox.
