After seeing Qin Miao's result, Toto didn't seem particularly happy. When the cara turned to him, he was just pressing his lips together, crossing his arms as he leaned on his seat, his expression appearing very calm.
As if everything was under control.
In fact, Toto's heart was not as calm as he appeared on the outside.
When Qin Miao found him, he actually believed that Qin Miao, after catching his teammate's slipstream, could further improve his ti, but he never expected that Qin Miao's ti would be so much faster, directly shooting to the top of the leaderboard.
Qin Miao really surprised and startled him again and again. Honestly, if Qin Miao managed to gain 0.2 seconds from so strange angles or aspects, Toto wouldn't even be surprised.
However, watching the slow-motion replay of Qin Miao's flying lap, Toto still felt a tinge of fear, after all, if Qin Miao made a mistake on the track, the team would definitely need to spend extra funds to repair the car.
In this era of budget caps, such an additional expenditure would definitely make the team feel uncomfortable for a while.
Fortunately, Qin Miao's flying lap did not disappoint Toto.
After completing the flying lap, Qin Miao returned directly to the team pits.
Qin Miao knew that this flying lap was already his best flying lap in Q3, and any further improvent would only be by a fraction of a second.
Moreover, the premise was that Hamilton would again give him a slipstream.
However, after parking in the team pit, Qin Miao did not get out of the car. Instead, he asked on the team TR: "Do you need to help give Hamilton a slipstream? I'm not planning to run the last flying lap, there's plenty of ti."
Frankie was not surprised by Qin Miao's words, he thought about it and turned to ask Hamilton's track engineer next to him.
Soon, the ssage was relayed to Hamilton.
Unexpectedly, Hamilton did not want Qin Miao to give him a slipstream.
After all, the slipstream effect on the Monte Carlo circuit is really poor, and the effect of pulling a slipstream for the rear car isn't particularly good.
Moreover, during this final period, everyone was doing their out laps, and the timing wasn't great.
Besides, he had taken a certain risk in helping Qin Miao with the slipstream earlier, and he didn't think it was necessary for Qin Miao to take the sa risk.
Knowing that Hamilton refused, Qin Miao didn't insist, and simply got out of the car.
However, after getting out of the car, Qin Miao still went to Hamilton's car, shook hands with him, and sincerely thanked Hamilton: "Lewis, thank you, I can't thank you enough."
"You're welco, and you really did a great job on that lap." Hamilton smiled and patted the back of Qin Miao's hand, his eyes full of encouragent.
Before leaving, Qin Miao also greeted Hamilton's physical trainer Angela.
However, Qin Miao didn't go to the FIA for weighing imdiately but went to his car first to check if there was any damage.
After all, he knew he had gone to the extre, and the barriers in many places were basically brushes with the car.
The most obvious on the car was actually the right front wing endplate, as there were noticeable scuff marks.
Although the Rolex ad boards were foam material, under large montum and speed, even carbon fiber would have so scuff marks.
The good news was that there was no structural damage to Qin Miao's car, and even with scuff marks, a bit of polishing would do the job.
After ensuring his car was fine, under the amazed comntary of the three comntators from Five-Star Sports, Qin Miao went straight to the FIA's weighing area.
However, not a few haters were displeased after seeing Qin Miao's actions and started bashing him online.
After all, having won the world championship, the increased attention naturally brought about so haters who didn't like Qin Miao.
Back when he had just won the championship, these people didn't dare to cause trouble because of Qin Miao's overwhelming montum, but this season as rcedes' car struggled, the haters knew their opportunity had co.
But ever since the new season began, Qin Miao's performance had always been better than Hamilton, so these haters couldn't find a point to break through.
Now they finally had a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity in front of them.
"Getting out of the car to get weighed before the qualifying session even ended, how arrogant."
While the haters celebrated online, on the track Leclerc and Verstappen began their last flying lap in qualifying.
Then ca the scene that made all rcedes and Qin Miao fans cry out in despair: in the last flying lap of Q3, in the first tid sector, Leclerc went purple.
Although it was only 0.009 seconds faster than Qin Miao, it showed that Leclerc's form was astonishing for this race.
Leclerc proceeded smoothly towards the second tid sector.
While in the rcedes team pit, there was a sigh of despair, everyone thinking Qin Miao's pole position would disappear like a teor shooting through the sky, the haters cheered even louder.
At the T8 exit, Perez, who was right behind Leclerc, made a mistake, drifting into the curve and crashing rear-first into the barriers.
