How Did I Become an F1 Driver?

Chapter 205: Family and Friends After the Race (6K Bonus 13/20)_2


After shaking hands, there were no more words exchanged between the two, each went about their own business.

Just as Qin Miao was preparing to wait for Sainz to be interviewed, he suddenly heard a very familiar voice calling him.

Instinctively turning his head, Qin Miao saw Qimeng walking towards him.

Isn't it always said that when you talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives? I didn't even mention my girl, just wondered how she came over.

However, seeing this girl at the post-race celebration made Qin Miao quite happy, as joy needs to be shared to maximize benefits.

Among all the people Qin Miao knew, aside from his own mom, the person Qin Miao most wanted to share with was Qimeng.

Without saying anything like "Why are you here" which would spoil the mood, when Qimeng came in front, Qin Miao smiled, opened his arms, took two steps forward, and hugged Qimeng tightly.

The three commentators from Five-Star Sports immediately showed a knowing smile upon witnessing this scene; young people, it's normal.

"Am I awesome?"

"Mm-hmm." Qimeng nodded vigorously: "But I really didn't expect that you could get to this position, it's beyond my imagination!"

Qin Miao smiled and accepted all of Qimeng's compliments.

After the hug, Qimeng took the white Mercedes cap and put it on Qin Miao, then said: "Enjoy the victory of the race; I'll be cheering for you from below."

...

After handing Qimeng over to Frankie, it was time for the interview session.

The first driver to be interviewed was Sainz, but there's not much to elaborate on his interview, everyone knows who the real star of today's race was.

Very quickly, Sainz's interview ended, and Qin Miao walked smilingly into the interview frame.

"Qin Miao, you staged an unprecedented performance, a race destined to be recorded in history, with an overtaking showcase. Seeing you in this position is truly unbelievable.

I want to know, did you expect before the race began, that you would land on the podium, even come to second place after the race ended?"

Qin Miao listened with a smile to the host's question, then began to speak: "I didn't think about it, actually before the race started, the team and my mental expectation were both to advance two positions by the race's end, getting any points would be considered a victory." Qin Miao answered: "But you all saw, that goal was achieved after the start phase ended, and truly now, when I recall how I kept surpassing myself, it feels somewhat unbelievable."

[Starting to be modest]

[Getting points counts as a victory, right?]

[The points in Qin Miao's words refer to the 18 points for second place, right?]

[Above, don't forget Qin Miao also earned a point for the fastest lap]

[The God of Monaco, right? Whoever he chases makes a mistake]

[I declare, from now on Qin Miao is the number one racer in Asia]

[Qin Miao became Asia's number one when he won at Imola]

...

"We also noticed when you chased up to your teammate Hamilton, the team let Hamilton pit, but ultimately you were the one who benefited from the pit stop, was this a deliberate arrangement by the team?"

Qin Miao shook his head: "This was just a routine pit stop.

Because my and Hamilton's starting positions were different, the team had different strategies prepared for us during the race, and that pit stop just found a relatively good gap for Hamilton."

"Last question, is the Monte Carlo track easy for overtaking?"

This question was somewhat in jest.

Qin Miao smiled helplessly: "It's very difficult, most of my overtakes relied on luck."

The host smiled and shook hands with Qin Miao.

Then, among the audience's cheers and applause, Qin Miao concluded his post-race interview.

Afterward, the person being interviewed became today's champion, Verstappen.

Although Verstappen's race today wasn't as dramatic or thrilling as Qin Miao's, the brilliance of the champion on him and the achievement Qin Miao gained after slicing through the track are equal.

Both were key players in the final stage of this race.

But Qin Miao might just have the edge over Verstappen in terms of legendary status.

Later when people talk about this race, they definitely won't discuss the ultimate winner being Verstappen, but rather how Qin Miao sliced through the competitors on the track.

After all, every Grand Prix has a champion, but the one who sliced through competitors after car width increase on Monte Carlo, is only Qin Miao.

...

After the interview ended, Qin Miao didn't go to listen to Verstappen's interview, he changed into his second-place Pirelli cap, and went straight upstairs to wait for Verstappen.

Going upstairs, Qin Miao could still hear the audience's applause and cheers for him.

Qin Miao also took time to wave and greet these very supportive fans.

Today's race performance by Qin Miao was absolutely stunning and certainly gained him numerous fans.

Subsequently, energized by the onsite DJ, Sainz first ascended the stage, followed by Qin Miao, Newey, and finally Verstappen.

After the four stood on the podium, Prince Albert II of Monaco personally awarded the Monaco Grand Prix championship trophy to Verstappen.

While the silver trophy for the runner-up Qin Miao was given by a young man, presumably also from the Monaco royal family, but Qin Miao truly didn't recognize him.
