Although I've never encountered this situation, I feel for your experience... pft... hahaha, sorry, I couldn't hold it in. Losing one point on the last Super License, I really couldn't help it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I shouldn't have told you about this.\" Zhou Guanyu now regretted making friends with such a troublemaker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After laughing for a while, Qin Miao recovered, downed the rest of his cola, stood up, and said to Zhou Guanyu, \"Come on, let's have a couple of CSGO duels.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Qin Miao's suggestion, Zhou Guanyu was dumbfounded and looked at Qin Miao in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can't you see I'm miserable now? Is this really the time to say such things?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the plane landed, Qin Miao happily took 500 euros from Zhou Guanyu's pocket, contentedly returning to Monaco with Qimeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Zhou Guanyu, complaining, took Qin Miao's plane back to England.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the 500 euros.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Losing a round of duel cost 100; Qin Miao won 500.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, there's no more dispute about who is the best gamer among the racers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Comfortably spent two days at home, with no work, no brain-wracking media interviews to avoid making mistakes, and no fans' cameras. Qin Miao was completely relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was also time to do shameless things at home with Qimeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, given Qin Miao's terrifying physical condition, it's always Qimeng in a state of a girl leaning against the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, such relaxed and happy times were short-lived; on the third day, Qin Miao returned to England.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following days, Qin Miao was, as usual, immersed in the team's factory, helping test various equipment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's worth mentioning that Elliott temporarily stepped away from developing the new underbody because the budget was exhausted, but there were effective results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although these components couldn't be produced due to budget issues, at least it provided Mercedes with an alternative development path and a platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though in CFD simulations, this new underbody and sidepod weren't performing well, this platform still had a lot of room for improvement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The development speed was terrifying, even taking Toto by surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Mercedes still decided not to implement the new underbody or sidepods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the team's major upgrade is coming, and the new rear diffuser can effectively alleviate the dolphin jumping caused by excessive rear downforce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Qin Miao and Hamilton are looking forward to this upgrade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most excited was Qin Miao, as he completed the majority of the simulations and tests for this rear diffuser.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This counts as Qin Miao's hands-on upgrade this season, hence the high expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, simulators ultimately differ from the actual race; no one knows if the component will perform as well as expected once installed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at least the simulator data suggests that although the car's bouncing can't be completely eliminated, there's significant progress in tail speed and acceleration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, after this upgrade, the team embarked on new upgrade projects, primarily targeting the underbody and sidepod intake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The design goal for the sidepod intake is to reduce the car's projected area, thus reducing frontal air resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This season, Mercedes focused on upgrading the engine's high-temperature performance and operational stability, so a smaller intake doesn't affect car performance or engine stability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, the sidepod upgrade aims to optimize the car's body, guiding more airflow towards the rear to create turbulence, delaying the trailing car's speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The team was busy until Saturday, and tomorrow Qin Miao can take a day off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Miao originally planned to return to Monaco tomorrow; Leclerc organized a gathering, inviting Qin Miao to meet new friends, among other things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as Qin Miao was about to leave after work, Elliott called him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qin Miao, are you still at the team factory?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though uncertain why Elliott suddenly called him, Qin Miao replied, \"Yes, I'm still at the team factory. What's up, Mike?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you're free tonight, come to Silverstone Circuit at eleven.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Qin Miao could respond, Elliott hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the disconnected call, Qin Miao was confused—why hang up after spewing a bunch of inexplicable words? At least tell me the reason!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Qin Miao was just puzzled; as for whether to actually go?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the team contacts him, it must be urgent. Leclerc's gathering can be postponed; he can cook for Leclerc to apologize at another time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dining in the team factory's cafeteria, Qin Miao put on a mask and a cap, and drove to Silverstone Circuit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, Qin Miao thought perhaps the team's engineers organized a small internal gathering there and asked him to join.\u003C\u002Fp>",777,"2026-06-06T15:23:17.810Z",1,"novelbin.me","49fc6394670df74beca6a1876974a13ddefbc9855c08417075a60ffd51b2fdde","how-did-i-become-an-f1-driver-chapter-929","how-did-i-become-an-f1-driver-chapter-927",1086,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhow-did-i-become-an-f1-driver-cover.jpg"]
