For the spectators and comntators, the only highlight of this race was the duel between the two rcedes drivers in the middle of the race.
Although the battle was intense, both drivers remained restrained.
The two were like those ancient martial arts masters competing, with skills precisely executed but controlled.
After the race, their duel was repeatedly ntioned by the three comntators at Five-Star Sports.
After all, apart from their duel, there wasn’t much else to watch in this race.
For the teams and drivers, the exhausting three consecutive races are finally over, and they can finally enjoy a much-needed period of rest and adjustnts.
The next race will be held on July 18th at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, the ho of the headquarters and factories for seven teams, including the ho ground for British drivers Hamilton, Russell, and Norris.
Therefore, the attention on this race will be high, and the logistical pressure for the teams will be minimal, since the event is right at their doorstep.
However, the team most comfortable with logistics is Martin, as their headquarters is just across the street from the Silverstone Circuit.
Transporting goods is rely a matter of towing things across the street.
After these two races at the Red Bull Ring, there have been significant changes in the driver and overall points leaderboard.
Firstly, the driver leaderboard points are as follows:
1: Verstappen 167
2: Hamilton 152
3: Qin Miao 150
4: Perez 94
5: Norris 90
6: Leclerc 62
7: Sainz 51
8: Ricardo 39
9: Gasly 34
10: Vettel 25
11: Alonso 19
12: Stroll 12
13: O’Kang 11
14: Tsunoda 7
15: Kimi 1
After the race is over, the main changes in position are among the top three drivers.
Qin Miao slipped from the lead on the leaderboard to third.
Hamilton, with an advantage of two more points than Qin Miao, is in second, while Verstappen is first.
Truth be told, the competition for the top positions on this year’s leaderboard is quite fierce.
These are the ninth Grand Prix, and the point gaps among the top three are still less than twenty points.
Apart from these three, only Stroll rose one position by having one more point than O’Kang, and no other position changes occurred on the overall leaderboard.
Over to the team leaderboard.
1: rcedes: 302
2: Red Bull: 261
3: McLaren: 129
4: Ferrari: 113
5: Alpha Tauri: 41
6: Aston Martin: 37
7: Alpine: 30
8: Alfa Roo: 1
In the rcedes team, in reality, if excluding the second driver, Hamilton’s total points are not as good as Verstappen’s.
Yet, as a second driver, both in their first year with the team, Qin Miao’s familiarity with the car speed and imdiate combat effectiveness indeed do justice to the drivers he dominated in F2 back then.
After all, Red Bull and rcedes are nearly pulling each other’s hair out in their rivalry, so their drivers are naturally compared, and now the second drivers are compared, and the result is clear.
Veteran Perez is also under considerable pressure without reason.
In addition to that, McLaren, owing to Norris’s excellent performance on the field, surpassed Ferrari in the overall leaderboard, reaching third place.
Ferrari, anwhile, dropped to its familiar fourth position.
Besides, Alpha Tauri climbed two positions thanks to its excellent performance in these recent matches.
anwhile, after this match, Qin Miao gained two Purple Lotteries.
These two Purple Lotteries were awarded by the system task.
Besides that, Qin Miao did not receive any more system rewards.
Now, Qin Miao has 6 Golden Lotteries and only 2 Purple Lotteries, getting a step closer to ten consecutive Golden Lotteries.
After the race ended, Qin Miao finished his handover and flew back to the UK with Zhou Guanyu on the sa day.
Yes, these days Zhou Guanyu has been staying with Qin Miao.
On the flight back, Qin Miao ate so food, put noise-canceling headphones in his ears, wore an eye mask, and directly started sleeping.
anwhile, Zhou Guanyu was watching Qin Miao’s replay footage of his duel with Hamilton during the last race with a computer throughout the journey.
After all, since Qin Miao is a good friend, Zhou Guanyu easily asked Qin Miao for his racing teletry data, so apart from the onboard perspective, Zhou Guanyu had teletry data and broadcast footage.
Moreover, since these were later needed for analysis by the rcedes team, Zhou Guanyu received even processed video files.
It was a mix of broadcast footage, onboard footage, simultaneous scenes of Qin Miao’s real-ti operation and pressure sensor data.
If anything seed off or raised questions, pressing the space bar would freeze all the data at that mont.
Perhaps this is precisely what they call ’benefiting from being close to the water.’
All the way back on the plane, Zhou Guanyu studied Qin Miao’s defensive maneuvers on the track and pondered Qin Miao’s intentions and thoughts at the ti.
If anything was unclear, Zhou Guanyu could ask him after Qin Miao woke up.
