And our seven-time champion Hamilton was eliminated in Q1 at a speed that no one expected.
Moreover, it should be noted, Hamilton's teammate Qin Miao qualified for Q2 strictly with only one flying lap.
At this moment, many domestic viewers seeing this performance from Hamilton have mixed feelings.
Because of Qin Miao, most domestic racing fans often view things from Qin Miao's perspective.
And so they know Hamilton taught Qin Miao a lot, and most people regard Hamilton as a big brother figure.
But everyone knows young drivers in the same team always want to surpass their senior predecessors.
Luckily, Qin Miao did it.
In his first season, he won the world championship, snatching the eighth crown right from his teammate, the seven-time champion Hamilton.
But now, looking at Hamilton, he's been eliminated in Q1.
This feeling is somewhat like watching the domestic scene during the disintegration of the Soviet Union.
