Naturally, just like athletes, drivers have strict requirements for the foods they ingest.But what about the foods Qin Miao has picked up? Coke: sugar explosion, fried chicken: fried food, ice cream: calorie explosion. These things, any other driver would regret it for a long time after just one sip, but Qin Miao took three portions at once. In the eyes of other drivers, Qin Miao is completely wasting his talent and ruining his body. However, those who know what kind of person Qin Miao is are not surprised, after all, during Ferrari’s youth training gatherings, Qin Miao often ate these junk foods, but there have been no noticeable issues with his weight or health. When it comes to dominating in F2, he holds nothing back. Honestly, compared to Qin Miao’s skills, many young and indulgent drivers envy Qin Miao’s talent in this regard even more... When Qin Miao finished eating, Leclerc had just brought the car back. Qin Miao wiped his mouth and went downstairs, seeing the expression of relief on Leclerc’s face. Qin Miao walked over and asked with a smile, "How does it feel? How was the performance?" Leclerc laughed, "I don’t even know how to describe your car properly. It’s basically just an aero kit and roll cage added to the 488’s chassis with no other modifications, not even adjusting the suspension stiffness... Honestly, I’m not used to driving it, but in the end, I managed to get a satisfactory result, 1:10:104, just 0.1 seconds faster than you." Qin Miao had expected this and felt somewhat emotional inside, realizing that those who can drive an F1 car are never simple individuals. Driving a car he’s not that familiar with, on a track he is familiar with, achieving a speed faster than the car’s owner Qin Miao, though Qin Miao hadn’t used his Man and Car Unity Skill Card on his 488, not reaching his limit. But Qin Miao also knew that Leclerc hadn’t exerted his full strength either. He even felt currently that if Leclerc were given a car with the same performance, Qin Miao might not necessarily beat him. However, on the track earlier, Qin Miao did block Leclerc once as payback for losing to Leclerc at Silverstone when Leclerc was more familiar with the Ferrari FS90. Taking the keys handed over by Leclerc, Qin Miao curiously asked, "I didn’t often see you at Maranello before, do you not live around here?" Leclerc replied, "No, actually I have a dorm in the dormitory area, and I usually stay here when I’m working at the Ferrari factory, but our life schedules just happened to be different." "I usually rest in the morning and formally start work and training in the afternoon." "Such coincidence?" Qin Miao was surprised, "And how do you know my schedule?" Leclerc looked around and although no one was around, he still covered his mouth with his hand and said, "After all, you’re my teammate next season, of course, I’d know more about my new teammate." Qin Miao was a bit surprised that Leclerc knew, but quickly understood. If I were a valued driver for Ferrari, somewhat like a future general of an ancient royal family, then Leclerc’s status is akin to the crown prince, especially of the Ming Dynasty, very stable, so it’s not strange he knows this. ... In the afternoon, at Leclerc’s strong invitation, Qin Miao drove Leclerc’s car for two laps on the track. Honestly, after driving, Qin Miao was deeply shocked, compared to his pista, this car’s chassis had clearly been modified and tuned by experts. For normal driving, the chassis is very comfortable, it could even somewhat serve as a commuter car, while in track mode, the entire chassis enters track mode under computer control, reaching an extremely perfect balance between grip and support, making it very easy to drive. The steering precision and control are not inferior to my 488 with a full GT3 aero kit and the acceleration performance and top speed are even faster. Qin Miao had always wondered, doesn’t Leclerc’s Ferrari 488 pista look just like that? What’s there to customize when the exterior hasn’t changed? Now Qin Miao understood and felt a deep sense of envy. No way, I have to find time to take the car to the racing division... When Qin Miao again drove his car to the racing division with his requests, they said, "Why don’t you just buy a GT3 race car?" which is something for later. Came with enthusiasm, and Qin Miao felt satisfied. Before leaving, Qin Miao and Leclerc exchanged contact information, even creating a group on WhatsApp. Right now, there aren’t many people in the group, only Qin Miao, Leclerc, and Zhou Guanyu. Because Zhou Guanyu once worked with Leclerc during the Ferrari youth training in F3, and they had a fairly harmonious relationship, they could be considered friends. So having the three in a group didn’t seem out of place, and the other two didn’t feel there was anything inappropriate. But after all, they’re all men, and they rarely chat in the group, so after creating the group, no one spoke anymore.
