The Red Bull team was slightly relieved that their strategy had curbed Qin Miao's attack, but they suddenly noticed something was off.
What's Qin Miao's most noticeable feature on the track?
Tire management!
So now, how many laps are left until the end of the race?
15 laps, and this number of laps...
Knowing that Qin Miao started the race phase with medium tires, with 15 laps to go until the end, the question is: Will Qin Miao switch to soft tires or hard tires during this pit stop?
This is basically a giveaway question, Qin Miao will definitely switch to soft tires because using hard tires at this point would not only lack speed but would be a waste.
And with Qin Miao's tire management ability, soft tires are enough for him to complete the next 15 laps.
And indeed, after Qin Miao entered the pit lane, the Mercedes team fitted him with a set of soft tires.
