In the final stage of the race, besides Qin Miao, the most surprising one was Albon.
Driving a Williams, Albon actually managed to score points.
It seems that ever since entering the ground effect era, the speed gap between teams has significantly narrowed.
The FIA rule changes have indeed been effective.
In terms of driver standings, Qin Miao's position was taken by Verstappen, dropping him to third.
However, Qin Miao knew this was a matter of time, so seeing his ranking slip didn't provoke a strong reaction.
The team is currently in chaos, and Qin Miao is unsure if the car has any hope for revival this season.
But Qin Miao realizes that this season his chances of topping the podium are slim, only managing to hover around it.
So now Qin Miao watches the championship battle between Leclerc and Verstappen with a spectator's mentality.
This feeling is quite fascinating, a brand new experience for Qin Miao.
