After arriving at the track, Qin Miao first attended the afternoon team meeting. During the meeting, Toto summarized some of the mistakes made by the two Mercedes drivers on the track recently and offered suggestions and methods for improvement.
The two drivers humbly accepted this, and then the team discussed the tactics prepared for them during the race stage, as well as possible team orders.
One point was made very clear, which was that if Qin Miao's speed was slower than Hamilton's during the race stage, he must give up his position, with no room for negotiation.
Qin Miao did not express any objection to this. Earlier in the morning, during training, Qin Miao had already received a call from Toto, and the two discussed this matter over the phone.
Toto's intention was clear: Hamilton is Mercedes' number one driver right now, so if his speed is faster during the race, you must yield to him after accepting the team order.
