After arriving at T6, Qin Miao was out of options.

This was a left turn, and Sainz squeezed into Qin Miao's inside line.

After Sainz forced his way in with a late brake, Qin Miao had no choice but to concede.

After T6 comes T7, and even if Qin Miao wanted to take a different line, the track length was not enough for Qin Miao's engine to perform.

In the end, at T6, Qin Miao chose to yield and didn't try to force through.

Next, Qin Miao settled steadily in third place.

Waiting for the DRS to activate.

On Hamilton's side, he also maintained his starting position without losing any places at the start.

In recent races, although Hamilton wasn't very competitive during the main races, he hadn't messed up his starts.

And Zhou Guanyu had a very good start this race; after the team's gearbox stopped acting up, Zhou moved from 7th to 6th, overtaking Magelsen to get behind Hamilton.

Everyone's attention remained on Leclerc and Perez. Compared to the uneventful front, these two were really cutting through the field from the back.

Even before the DRS was activated, the two of them started aggressively overtaking from behind.

However, when the race reached the 4th lap and the DRS was activated, Sainz easily overtook the Alonso in the DRS zone.

There's nothing surprising about this, given Alonso's car performance, being in that position was more about Alonso having good luck.

When the race came to the 4th lap, Qin Miao also overtook Alonso in the DRS zone.

Alonso tried to resist, but with this year's Mercedes car, I can't handle the Bulls and Horses, but can I not handle a small Renault?

Qin Miao directly overtook Alonso on the outside, relying on speed and slipstream, and after passing Alonso on the inside, he quashed all of Alonso's attempts to regain the position.

By lap 6, Hamilton also overtook Alonso.

Actually, Alonso had quite an experience defending against Hamilton.

But when Qin Miao overtook Alonso, Hamilton was observing the whole process closely from behind, so he clearly knew how Qin Miao overtook Alonso.

Copying Qin Miao's method, overtaking Alonso was not too difficult for Hamilton.

But after Qin Miao and Hamilton both overtook Alonso, everyone at Mercedes knew that the race for them was pretty much over.

As long as the pit crew doesn't mess up during the tire change.

But in lap 8, Red Bull also had some action for the brothers. Perez's car lost power and stopped at the exit of Matthew's T8.

In the replay, you could hear Perez's car engine roar when he hit the gas, but no matter how it roared, his car didn't provide any power to Perez.

So those who know what's up could see that Perez's gearbox had an issue.

The engine power couldn't be transmitted to the wheels. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Race control immediately brought out the yellow flag.

And the yellow flag quickly turned into a virtual safety car.

Qin Miao actually wanted to take the opportunity to pit for a tire change, but when the virtual safety car was deployed, Qin Miao had already passed the pit lane entrance.

And by the time he returned, the car pack had already compressed, so Qin Miao could only reluctantly choose to continue running on the track.

But fortune favors the persistent; in lap 20, Mick Schumacher's Haas car also stopped at the same spot where Perez's car had malfunctioned.

This time, Qin Miao had no hesitation and directly chose to pit and put on hard tires.

Originally, because of what happened yesterday, Qin Miao was a bit miffed with Mick, as Mick had messed up his pole position.

But now, Qin Miao just wanted to say thank you to Mick!

You're a great guy!
