Now reading: Chapter 1055 - 405: Unlucky Leclerc from How Did I Become an F1 Driver?, a Sports novel by lq Lianqing.

Qin Miao wanted to touch his nose, but because the helt was still on his head, he turned the motion into lifting the visor of his helt.

But to be honest, Qin Miao really didn’t know how to respond to Hamilton’s words.

If you say Hamilton’s defense was good and that it made you break into a sweat, then Qin Miao would feel guilty, because Hamilton’s defense could only be described as decent.

Qin Miao didn’t feel too much pressure, but telling the truth at this mont could easily hurt feelings.

So after thinking about it, and considering his relationship with Hamilton, Qin Miao said jokingly, "Hmm... after the race, you can co to my rest room, I can teach you so techniques."

"Fuck up..." Hamilton playfully pushed Qin Miao.

The two rcedes drivers looked at each other and smiled, naturally continuing the conversation.

Then the two rcedes drivers naturally joined the already crowded group of rcedes team staff.

Qin Miao also perford a standard high jump posture, throwing himself into the crowd.

Amid the laughter of his colleagues, Qin Miao celebrated heartily before coming out of the crowd.

He then greeted the second place Sainz, went for the weigh-in, removed his gear, took a drink of water, rested a bit, tidied up, and got ready for the post-race interview.

Qin Miao took a bit more ti celebrating, so when he arrived, the second place Sainz had already completed his post-race interview, and Hamilton was moving towards the host amid the loud cheers of British fans to be interviewed.

After two questions, Hamilton finished his interview amid the cheers, and it was Qin Miao’s turn.

When Qin Miao ca in front of the cara, there was also a fierce cheer.

Although quite a number of Hamilton fans were sowhat dissatisfied with Qin Miao for overshadowing Hamilton in the rcedes team at the mont,

it was well-known that Hamilton and Qin Miao’s relationship had eased, and for a strong competitor and race winner, these people understood they should maintain basic respect.

As a result, Qin Miao received applause, but the volu was noticeably less than that for Hamilton.

However, Qin Miao didn’t mind much.

"Congratulations, Qin Miao, a wonderful performance, a weighty race win, and after this race, like last season, you lead the drivers’ standings again."

"Thank you, actually the most important is to thank the team’s fans, without their drive and support, the team couldn’t have developed such a perfect car." Hamilton learned so defensive skills from Qin Miao, and regarding post-race interviews, Qin Miao also learned a lot from Hamilton.

Their mutual progress can be described more as a motivational boost.

"Also, thanks to all the team staff. This race win belongs not only to , but also to them, this week’s upgrades were great."

Qin Miao’s answer avoided the drivers’ standings topic directly.

Primarily because discussing it now wasn’t needed.

The fans didn’t know, but Qin Miao, as a driver, was aware of rcedes’ plan for the season.

This position might only be mine for a few days, once it’s Red Bull’s ho race next week, with Verstappen’s capabilities, he’ll likely reclaim the lead in the drivers’ standings.

Talking about it now implies suggesting to rcedes fans that the team might return to the pinnacle this season?

Qin Miao didn’t want to give false hopes and then shatter them.

So he just didn’t talk about it.

The subsequent two interview questions were more standard, discussing the qualifying and the team’s plans for the upcoming events, before concluding.

The post-race award ceremony needs no further detail, Qin Miao’s already quite used to it.

However, when Qin Miao, soaked, ca off the stage, he saw an audience mber joyfully holding a white DRS sign and flaunting it.

Watching this with a twitch in his lips, Qin Miao couldn’t help but reflect in his heart, "So this is the birthplace of motorsport culture."

The culture is so damn simple and honest.

...

anwhile, the broadcast director also gave a shot to the unlucky one of this race, Leclerc, who was supposed to get the race win.

But this scene looked sowhat like a replay.

Leclerc’s hair was still wet, holding a helt.
