How Did I Become an F1 Driver?-Chapter 470 - 211: Classic Replay

The three commentators gasped at this scene.

Bing shouted aloud: "Qin Miao!"

Fei was full of worry: "Be careful at T1, don’t end up in an accident."

Brother Ran clenched his fists: "Sainz is blocking firmly, he doesn’t want to let Qin Miao through!"

"Qin Miao must not act impulsively, Mercedes is faster than Ferrari, later we have time to slowly attempt to overtake Sainz ahead."

It wasn’t just the commentators, the spectators watching this scene were also extremely worried, some restless ones even started sweating in their palms. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

...

On the track, upon seeing Qin Miao’s tire positioning, Sainz realized Qin Miao was placing a lit firecracker between them, while handing Sainz the extinguisher.

If you don’t leave me space through the turn, I’ll definitely crash into the wall and retire, but you must know, the specialty of our Mercedes is particularly hard suspension.

Do you guess that if I crash, could my left front suspension break your right side’s wing or side pod, disrupting your car’s balance? Could the shards from the front wing possibly puncture your right front wheel’s tire?

And ultimately, Sainz chose to cower.

He’s not like Qin Miao; Qin Miao has already solidified his status within Mercedes, haven’t you seen Bottas now looking for jobs, and Toto publicly praising Qin Miao’s performance and talent on the track, expressing how everyone at Mercedes is very pleased with Qin Miao.

Such a driver is treasured by any team he joins.

And Sainz is different, because of Qin Miao, his second driver position at Ferrari has never been stable.

Now he’s in an awkward position, Ferrari’s high-level factions need his presence on one side, and attack him on the other.

Binotto is now under pressure using Sainz.

If clashing with Qin Miao on the track now, Sainz feels he probably won’t maintain his driver position at Ferrari.

Therefore, Sainz still left Qin Miao enough space for the turn.

Seeing this, Qin Miao took a wider line out of the turn.

Even though Qin Miao’s engine output wasn’t as strong as the new engine at that moment, it was still stronger than Ferrari’s engine.

Plus, Qin Miao took the outside line out of the turn, having a wider exit line, so by the time two cars reached T2 one after another, Qin Miao had overtaken Sainz by half a car length.

At T2, the two cars became the only drivers in the scoring zone still side by side.

But after exiting T2 onto the long straight, Qin Miao forcibly overtook Sainz by leaning onto the outside line.

After overtaking Sainz, the three commentators from Five-Star Sports and the spectators watching the race finally exhaled a sigh of relief.

Many finally had the chance to wipe the sweat off their hands with paper.

After all, people tend to put themselves in others’ shoes, and right now, Qin Miao is the only Chinese person on the F1 track, so when watching the race, viewers like to imagine themselves from Qin Miao’s perspective, naturally feeling tense seeing such dangerous situations.

After overtaking Sainz, Toto and Frankie also breathed a sigh of relief.

But Qin Miao discovered that another car appeared ahead where it shouldn’t be.

That was the Red Bull junior team’s Gasly.

Gasly’s speed was really a bit slow, only three corners into the race, he had already fallen 1 second behind Verstappen ahead.

So after just passing the familiar T8 for Leclerc, through the castle combination turns and exiting T12, Qin Miao was already closely drafting off Gasly’s rear.

The upcoming T13, T14 were two fakies.
