Qin Miao's attack was simple and unadorned, even a bit brutal.
At T11, after taking a cross line on the outside and entering T12, with Verstappen holding the inside line of T12, Qin Miao arrived later but surpassed from the outside with a stronger mechanical grip, overtaking Verstappen forcefully from the outside.
Verstappen initially wanted to squeeze Qin Miao again using his line rights when Qin Miao exited the corner, but then remembered that Qin Miao was also quite headstrong.
Unlike other drivers, when Verstappen offers the choice of a collision to other drivers, they often choose to back down.
After all, finishing the race is more important, and vehicle damage is generally not something teams want to bear.
But Qin Miao is different, whether through the portrayal of Qin Miao's personality or his performance in the recent race.
Verstappen knew that if he handed this choice to Qin Miao, Qin Miao would definitely choose the option of direct confrontation without hesitation.
