Besides, given Qin Miao’s stability and considering he’s driving in F2 without much pressure from the rear cars, he’s unlikely to make any mistakes. If Qin Miao made an error while leading, the biggest possibility wouldn’t be pressure from the drivers behind, but because he was too bored and zoned out. The rest of the race didn’t have much to say, no more safety cars appeared, and Qin Miao was seen heading all the way to the finish line, creating many hard-to-break new records. First time entering the F2 arena and winning the double championship in both the main and sprint races, moreover, as a Chinese person, he also recorded the fastest lap in the sprint race. Summing up Qin Miao’s performance yesterday and today: "Invincible." Over the two days, Qin Miao overtook a total of twelve cars without being overtaken once; among them, his good buddy Zhou Guanyu was overtaken twice during the main race. Truth be told, just like yesterday’s main race, the last few laps were somewhat boring for Qin Miao. However, fortunately, after the sprint race, seeing the crew and team leader Roxin excitedly cheering by the barriers, Qin Miao knew his hard work and efforts were not in vain. Under the waving checkered flag, crossing the finish line, Qin Miao once again made history. To be honest, this time winning the championship again, Qin Miao’s excitement was much less compared to yesterday. After all, winning the first time on a track is thrilling, but by the second time, the excitement halves, especially when winning twice in two days, the joy of winning diminishes further. Also, Qin Miao knew that the sprint race was actually for those who had the strength but had bad luck starting from the back. From the fact that the F2 series only had five sets of dry tires, drivers had to choose their focus between the main and sprint races. If focusing on the main race, they’d use more tires in qualifying, leaving only old hard tires for the sprint race. And if focusing on the sprint race, wanting to achieve results there, they’d have to save a new set of hard tires from the main race and qualifying to use in the sprint race. And the ones who set this format never imagined that this year’s F2 track would feature someone like Qin Miao, who could run 29 laps on the Red Bull Ring with a set of soft tires without losing grip. Honestly, even Roxin, the team leader, and Qin Miao’s crew didn’t expect him to actually win the sprint race on a set of soft tires. And the three commentators on Five-Star Sports had already predicted this scenario when Qin Miao took the lead, so they were already excited. When Qin Miao crossed the line, their excitement was less than when they saw him win the main race yesterday. During the cool-down lap, Qin Miao initially planned to park the car in the middle of the track like yesterday, but Frankie informed him during the lap that today’s awards ceremony would be at the normal podium below; yesterday’s on-track ceremony was because the sponsor’s ad board under the podium wasn’t ready, but today, due to the F1 main race, it was set up in advance. Qin Miao dutifully prepared to enter through the pit lane entrance. But on his cool-down lap, Qin Miao spotted Zhou Guanyu’s yellow car. As he got closer, Zhou Guanyu also noticed Qin Miao. Zhou Guanyu extended a hand from the cockpit toward Qin Miao. After all this time together, the two had developed some rapport. As Zhou Guanyu extended his hand, Qin Miao knew he was asking what position he finished in this sprint race. Qin Miao held up a "one" gesture with his hand, Zhou Guanyu was clearly stunned for a moment; obviously, he didn’t expect Qin Miao, starting from eighth, to climb to first with just one set of soft tires. This guy really came to F2 to blowfish. But since this guy is a buddy, after knowing Qin Miao took first, Zhou Guanyu still gave him a thumbs up: "You’re awesome!" Back at the pit lane entrance, a green carpet was already laid out, with signs representing the first, second, and third places set up above it. Qin Miao found his number "1st" sign and parked his car in front of it. Yesterday, after winning first place, Qin Miao didn’t celebrate much due to social anxiety; now, with his joy diminished further, he didn’t celebrate after getting out of the car, instead taking off his helmet while walking to the preparation area. Even when the cameraman was filming his face, Qin Miao didn’t pay much attention. After taking off his gear, Qin Miao shook hands, patted shoulders, and exchanged encouragements with the second and third place drivers, then went for an interview. The interviewer today was a blonde female host. "Congratulations, Qin. Your performance today was incredible, everyone is amazed by how you went from eighth to first again and took the championship. Did you encounter any difficulties in the process?" Difficulties? Truth be told, Qin Miao didn’t feel it was difficult at all. Did you feel it was hard to blowfish in a low-tier game? This race was pretty much like a blowfish for Qin Miao; neither overtaking nor anything else gave him any stress.
