"As the 20th anniversary of F1 China, as a fan of Michael Schumacher's era, 2006 China is unforgettable. Schumacher stood at the top of the podium, overlooking the sea of red to receive the salute of Ferrari's diehards. However, in the post-match press conference, the 37-year-old Schumacher announced to the world: "This is my last Monza race and I have decided to retire at the end of the year. Although Schumacher made a three-season comeback at Mercedes from 2010 to 2012, I came back to the scene with a clear sense that the center of the stage had changed, Schumacher was just enjoying the game, and I was just there to visit an old friend. My youth and passion were dedicated to Schumacher, all condensed in that red Ferrari 248F1. In my heart, his Chinese Grand Prix on October 1, 2006 is irreplaceable for me. ”

"I've loved cars since I was a child, and I don't know if it has anything to do with my father being a driver. What I still remember is that in January 2005, I just arrived in Jiading for internship less than a week, I braved the heavy snow to visit the Shanghai International Circuit, from the grandstand seats to the air news media area to the P room of the garage, so that I have a new understanding of the race, so with the characteristics of the word "on" The track left a deep impression on me, and I made up my mind that day I must come to watch the next F1 race. Later, I had a close encounter with my idol Michael Schumacher, so I really look forward to F1 Shanghai every year over the years. This year is even more different, finally the first official Chinese F1 driver Zhou Guanyu is fighting at home, looking forward to Xiao Zhou's good results, and also looking forward to the F1 China Shanghai Station will continue to be held better and better. ”

"In 2015, I re-entered F1 after the college entrance examination, and I went to the scene to watch the race for the first time in 17 years, and I was lucky to draw a car to see me in 18 years, and showed Wa the podium portrait I drew in Abu Dhabi and SF70H!19 years to experience the 1000th race! "

"At the end of 2022, four students who are interested in motorsport came together, and we shared the same dream - to promote the racing culture in China and promote the healthy development of the Chinese racing industry, so we decided to do something in the garden - to establish a racing association. In April 2023, after seeing the school's announcement of the overseas practice project approval, I suddenly had the idea of leading a team to the UK to research racing, as the country with the most mature racing industry, half of the F1 teams gather in Racing Valley, and there are a large number of racing-related enterprises, holding hundreds of events every year. It can be said that only by understanding the operation mode of the British racing industry can we truly provide solutions for the development of China's racing industry. We have seen the gap between Chinese and British racing, and we are constantly thinking about what we can learn from and learn from, and contribute to the development of China's racing industry. We believe that China's racing will get better and better, and the young people of Tsinghua Racing Association understand racing, love racing, and move towards racing. See you at F1 Shanghai! ”

This photo with Verstappen was taken before the 2018 F1 Chinese Grand Prix, at an official Red Bull sponsor event. As a Ferrari fan, how could I like Verstappen? Just because after watching the rain battle in the 2016 F1 Brazil race, a series of superb operations such as crazy overtaking and miraculous car rescue have been fanned, like Senna possessed. It has also proved that Verstappen has been the fastest driver in recent years. At the same time, I also hope that our Chinese driver Zhou Guanyu can get good results at home this year. ”

"I am a native of Jiading, a baby who grew up listening to the sound of the engine. In 2004, when I was in Year 4, the school in Jiading carried out a series of activities to welcome F1 to China. I actively participated in the planning of the class meeting in my class, and I think the seeds of the pursuit of speed and passion were planted at that time. On the day of the 2004 race, the school organized our students to watch the race, and it was the first time I experienced the joy of F1. In 2012, I saved up my pocket money to buy a student ticket to witness the return of KIMI. 🇫🇮 In 2017 I became an F1 referee and became a participant in the race. Since then, he has been involved in Matthew work for the F1 Grand Prix every year in a row. In 2024, after 5 years, I signed up for Matthew's job again. This year is also my 20th year with F1. I'm 30 in the blink of an eye. I think liking F1 is the one thing I've been doing for the longest time in my life, and I'll continue to keep it~"

"I went to see F1 for the first time in 2007, when my parents took me there, and I missed the award ceremony when I saw half of the race clamoring to go out to buy hats. Later, in 2014, I started watching F1 races on the TV at home, and the five-star sports station. I first came into contact with photography in 2018, when I took the high school entrance examination, and at the age of 16, I was alone with my father's old DSLR D80. I bought the cheapest 180 grass tickets, and went to watch the game under the pressure of being blamed by my parents before the high school entrance examination. In the blink of an eye, F1 has been almost 20 years, witnessing the Red Bull Dynasty and the Mercedes Dynasty, I hope this love can be maintained forever, and I am glad that I was born in the city of cars. ”

"This photo was taken at the Formula 1 Chinese Grand Prix in April 2011, when I was a university student and I was very happy to see this international race that I had loved for many years on my doorstep. ”

"Eighteen years ago, I moved my family from Shanxi to Shanghai for F1. The charm of F1 is that it is difficult to tell the winner in front of the stage until the last second, and the change is only a thousandth of a second, and I am fascinated by the high-tech content behind the scenes, as well as the strict and efficient operation management system. ”

The photo was taken at a viewing party for the Japanese Grand Prix jointly organized by the Tongji University Electric Racing Team (Student Formula E racing team) and Red Bull Austria in September 2023. It was the first time I watched F1 offline with so many people. In 2024, we will finally have the opportunity to witness the speeding F1 cars in Shanghai. On the race, I'm coming! "

"In 2004, the first F1 China Station, when I was a child in Anting, I had my first close contact with this top race, and I was looking forward to this day under the influence of my fan father, although I could not enter the race to witness the race, but I left this precious group photo in the roar of the engine, and it was also my best fifth birthday gift! Now, 20 years later, not only because of the racing car, I have met my best friend and my partner, two important partners in life, but also because of the thriving new run, which gives me the opportunity to race with my feet outside of the race! "
