While Qin Miao and the others were singing, the other staff mbers of the rcedes team also joined in, as it wasn't a particularly difficult song to sing.
When it ca to the chorus, everyone in the rcedes team's P room, whether they were staff or not, joined in singing.
"We are the champions - my friends"
"And we'll keep on fighting till the end"
"We are the champions"
...
However, Qing and Qin Miao's mother didn't join in. Instead, they stood aside, smiling and recording the scene on their phones, their faces full of joy.
They wanted to preserve this beautiful mont in their mories forever.
As the song ended, Reyes and the others didn't even give Qin Miao a chance to change his clothes.
Right after finishing the song, Reyes and the others lifted Qin Miao up into the air.
Amidst Qin Miao's exclaid 'oh my god,' he was carried to the entrance of the team's P room, and then Reyes and the others tossed him high up.
Only after experiencing a sudden sense of weightlessness did Qin Miao realize what they were doing.
After being tossed three or four tis, a slightly startled Qin Miao was brought back down to the ground by Reyes and the others, laughing.
This feeling of falling from the air was different from the centrifugal force experienced in a race car. In a race car, the centrifugal force is lateral, occurring in four dinsions at most, plus the uphill of the Spa's Elloge bend, where drivers endure about 2.4G of downward force.
But none of that feels like weightlessness. For Qin Miao, this was a rather special sensation.
After landing, he chatted and laughed with Frankie and the others for a while before finally having the ti to change out of his race suit, already soaked with drinks.
After getting changed, Qin Miao quietly rummaged through his room and found a small white box.
This was sothing Qin Miao specifically asked the team's logistics manager to bring into the room for him; no one knew he had brought an extra item in, aside from the logistics manager.
This mont showed the benefit of having good relationships with other departnt managers - getting their help was just a matter of asking.
With the box in hand, Qin Miao happily headed back to the team's P room.
The team staff were still celebrating at that mont.
At so point, everyone's hands once again held glasses, just like when the rcedes team won the Constructors' Championship at the Brazilian Grand Prix this year.
Since Qin Miao was around, the team felt little pressure when winning the Constructors' Championship this year.
Because there were still races to run after winning the Constructors' Championship, the team staff couldn't celebrate all out; the post-race celebration was more reserved.
Therefore, the team staff weren't fully satisfied with their previous celebration.
This season's driver championship contention was different from the Constructors' Championship because Verstappen had been putting pressure on rcedes and Qin Miao all season.
Before the outco of this race was decided, the rcedes team staff were in a constant state of anxiety. Now, having achieved the wanted results and with the unsatisfactory celebration after the Constructors' Championship, it was natural for an all-out celebration to start.
Qin Miao looked around the crowd and quickly spotted Qing, who was taking photos with others in the P room.
Notably, these people weren't rcedes team staff but fans of the team.
They had entered the rcedes team's P room after buying VIP tickets to watch the race.
The tickets they bought were the standard race tickets or priced over ten tis that of a VIP ticket.
After finding out about Qing and Qin Miao's relationship, fans eagerly lined up to take photos with this rare girl.
They were happier with photos of Qing than they were with Qin Miao.
That wasn't surprising, as Qin Miao, being an F1 driver, was a public figure.
To take a photo with Qin Miao, basically all it takes is money; buy a VIP ticket, and there's always a chance to et him and ask for a photo, and he most likely wouldn't refuse.
But his girlfriend was different; even with money, you'd need luck to encounter her in the paddock.
And whether she'd agree to a photo was another matter.
Qin Miao thought Qing, being the center of attention, looked quite good, so he didn't disturb her. After all, there weren't many spectators who could afford rcedes-level VIP tickets.
So it wasn't long before Qing finished up.
After dealing with the fans, Qing looked around the team's P room and then saw Qin Miao.
Her face imdiately broke into a smile upon seeing Qin Miao.
As Qing smiled and walked toward Qin Miao, ready to share her recent experiences, she was taken aback to see Qin Miao suddenly crouch down in front of her.
Qin Miao's action wasn't very conspicuous in the crowd because the rcedes team P room was quite packed, and visibility was limited.
But as a newly crowned world champion, Qin Miao naturally attracted attention. Even without intentionally announcing his presence, bystanders and team staff would more likely focus or glance at him.
