How Did I Become an F1 Driver? Chapter 875 348: W13B

But after all, this family isn't just about , so after so thought, Qin Miao decided to give Qing a call.

"Hello?" Qing's sowhat lazy voice drifted into Qin Miao's ears.

"Did I wake you up?"

"No worries, go ahead."

"Toto approved a two-week leave for during the Spring Festival, but aren't we not going back? So right now I'm a bit conflicted. Should we take advantage of this holiday to go back ho for the New Year, or stay abroad? If we stay here, should we invite Toto over for a al?"

"You decide," replied Qing groggily. "I really don't mind either way. It's just a matter of adding a few more pairs of chopsticks."

But after saying that, Qing paused: "If you want to invite Toto over for the New Year, it might be inappropriate to just invite him alone. Have you considered Elliott, Allison, adows, and those other team directors and managers? If Zhou Guanyu is staying in Switzerland for the New Year, shouldn't we invite him too? Otherwise, amongst a bunch of rcedes executives, having a Sauber driver would sound odd. So should you also consider Hamilton and other team drivers?"

"Stop, stop, I'm starting to get a headache." Qin Miao hurriedly interrupted his wife's ramblings and rubbed his temples with slight frustration. "Let think about it."

At this ti, Qing added, "Of course, if your confidentiality is good enough or if you're open enough, just inviting Toto's family over for a al shouldn't be an issue."

"Alright, I'll think about it."

"Okay, I'm getting up to wash up; there's a lot of work at the company recently."

"Mm, bye-bye."

"Love you, bye-bye."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Miao continued to rub his temples, montarily unsure of what to do.

Furthermore, it really seed like his wife hadn't fully woken up. Didn't he ntion there was the option of going back ho? Why did there seem to be only the option of not returning for the New Year?

In fact, Qin Miao misunderstood Qing because he hadn't considered this point himself initially, and Qing's parents had already told their neighbors that they would not be celebrating the New Year in the country this year but abroad instead.

Once words are out, they can't be taken back. Suddenly deciding to stay in the country for the New Year might not look good for everyone.

The most important and imdiate reason is that going back would an quarantine.

Qin Miao had been troubled for a while without figuring out a concrete solution, deciding to just let it be for now.

At worst, it would be like the original plan of just the family celebrating the New Year among themselves.

After temporarily putting this matter aside, Qin Miao spent so ti on his phone in his office and then went to the team's gym for a solo workout before heading to the team's factory.

Next was Qin Miao's work ti.

January 27th

In the afternoon, after lunch break, everyone in the team started working again.

However, Qin Miao's office was still a bit dim as all the blinds were down.

A closer look would reveal Qin Miao asleep in an ergonomic chair.

But soon, soone knocked on the office door.

With the door being knocked, Qin Miao woke up and said towards the door, "Co in," before sitting up from the reclined chair.

Seeing the tall figure at the door, Qin Miao retracted the footrest of his chair and greeted, "Boss."

At this point, Qin Miao showed no signs of panic at being caught sleeping on the job; he even stretched lazily after standing up.

Toto didn't mind and even asked with concern, "Did I interrupt your rest?"

Qin Miao waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's fine, what can I do for you?"

Speaking, Qin Miao reached out and opened the electric curtains in his office; as the soft motor sound humd, sunlight gradually filled the room.

Toto walked into Qin Miao's office, sat on the guest sofa, and said, "I rember you had different opinions on our car design for this season during last season?"

Seemingly worried that Qin Miao might think he was there to reproach him, Toto explained, "I ca here to ask about your thoughts on this season's car, more like gathering opinions."

Qin Miao nodded. He did have concerns about the car design, but he didn't recall ntioning them before.

Of course, it could have been raised through other channels, or he might have ntioned it and forgotten.

But since Toto specifically ca to him, Qin Miao decided it was a good ti to voice his concerns.

Qin Miao took a sip from his sports water bottle and then joined Toto on the sofa after so thought.

After a mont of reflection, he said, "Indeed, I have concerns in this area."

Toto gestured invitingly, "I'm all ears."

"My main concerns are about the W13's side pods and floor."

"Undeniably, according to the team's wind tunnel and CFD simulations, the zero side pod concept greatly improves the car's drag and weight, enhancing the overall car balance and tire life without affecting the car's cooling capability.

But Toto, we all know that the ground effect car's chassis relies on the downforce generated by the differing airflow velocities above and below it. In this situation, the distance between our car floor's edge and the central part of the car is a bit too wide."
