In everyday life, 0.2 seconds is hard to notice and is often not given any thought.
But in the arena of F1 racing, 0.2 seconds can determine the victory or defeat of a race, and can also decide the ownership of millions of US dollars.
And it was precisely because of Qin Miao's 0.2 second mistake that Verstappen had to slightly slow his own pace, otherwise his cornering rhythm would definitely be affected by Qin Miao.
Being too close behind Qin Miao could very likely result in a rear-end collision.
If he rear-ended Qin Miao at this moment, leaving aside vehicle damage or penalties from the stewards, Verstappen's reputation in the paddock would be completely ruined.
So Verstappen again held back his impatience and reduced his speed a bit.
However, Qin Miao's "mistake" only targeted the driver directly behind him, and Hamilton, beside Verstappen, was not affected by Qin Miao at all.
