Not only Michael was the last driver racing who once raced a stick shift F1 car when he retired in 2012, he was the last driver to win with a stick shift 20 years earlier.
@@tesladiesel2420 I know some websites say sequential but it looks and sounds an awful lot like an H pattern in this video. He clearly goes down from 6th to 2nd coming in to the chicane at the end of the pit straight and then makes a number of changes back up the box coming out through the curve grande. I don't think any sequential box would let you do that?
@@adelaidecity76 you are correct! It is an H pattern indeed. A dog box with straight cut gears. No clutch needed on the upshifts expect at start (still, need to lift throttle when shifting without a clutch or use ignition interrupt) and blip/rev-match either heel-toe brake or left foot brake, and/or blip with right foot (faster). Apparently Michael wasn’t that concerned with the blips/ rev-match as it sounds like he was going from 6th into 2nd (?) at the end of straight and coming out of that turn putting that engine into the rev limiter on each downshift. If I had been Michael’s engineer, I would have “yelled at him” doing that lol!
H pattern hewland derived box. Dog leg first gear. Clutch needed at the start and on the way up and down the box. Heel and toe downshifts. No left braking in this car because it’s fairly low nose and the steering columns in the way. By ‘94 schimacher and hakkinen both left foot braking. He’s also block shifting, ie missing out some gears, I think Berger and Boutsin did this maybe Prost.
@@BorisNoiseChannel I thought I made it clear, that it´s just about the dirtyness of this move. Things like this could easily end like Ralf Schumacher and Villeneuve incident in Melbourne 2001 with a dead Marshal :(
Good old times when drivers could still do mistakes while changing gears but overcome them with their immense talent. Here Schumi put the car in 5th gear instead of 3rd gear twice, at the start of the race (hence the time lost and subsequent accident) and getting out of the pits after the front wing change, but he still manage to finish 3rd. Brilliant piece of driving and one of the best onboard ever. Not to mention the old 2nd Lesmo corner with the stands, my favorite spot when I was a kid attending the summer tests every year with my father.
Greatest driver ever, change gear with a stick,no radio coms back then. None of this "my car got a problem what can I do bullshit" I loved this era,and the 80's
far from the greatest. the greatest driver isnt scared to race a different series unlike schumacher was. a driver like jacques, graham hill, Jim Clark, jacky ickx are all far better drivers than schumacher
This video shows Micheals genius; his turn in and corner speed: never slides the car or needs to use opposite lock for a slide j,udges the car to perfection takes it to the limit without mistakes. What a wonderful historic primary source. Thank you for this,
He was immense, utterly immense. Like all greats he could be uncompromising and I didn't enjoy the team orders but some of the performances in qualifying and race were mind boggling. I hope he is functioning better than the doom we hear in the press as he brought a lot of excitement and enjoyment to many people for many years.
There were no blipping gear change downshifts with Stirling Moss levels of finesse, were there? It was just jam that fucker from WOT in 6th straight into 3rd and be damned. Three times a lap. Epic stuff.
@@ivanjulian2532 Yeah man, hearing that thing bounce off the rev limiter on the hard braking is epic. Heel and toe manual downshifting shifting, just slamming those gears down whilst bouncing the red line. Ruthless!
when you see on board with someone like Senna or Schumacher , you see why they were so good, its not just the skill, they are both nuts behind an F1 car wheel, pure confidence in they are right on the line..but just on the edge of to much awesome
The man was possessed, no question about it. No ordinary human being would attack every corner like that. And the recovery after exiting the pits, in the chicane, is savage!
I'm pretty sure that senna would have more titles if he had survived that day in imola. Senna could do the "impossible". He could won races that no one else's could. He did things that you could only see in a movie.. even when he was driving a shit car. Senna is the king of Monaco, King of wet track and the best driver that ever lived.
What a treat to have a drivers POV from an era when we were seldom shown such a thing when watching live on the BBC etc. Equally, what a shame it appears that Michael is unable to kick-back and enjoy his exploits, as indeed he should. That must have been one of the drives of his career, the sheer will and determination coupled with a rapidly evolving skill. Simply stunning driving and humbling to watch.
I'm pretty sure he was jamming the gearbox from 6th into 3rd no less than three times a lap. That rev limiter red light in his cockpit... it was through the roof. His engineers must have been in shock when they saw the data.
@@Santalucesguy there werent lmao. Michael was the complete package. Sometimes he made error but so did others. We are all human. Michael was like combination of Senna and Prost which is practically unbeatable...
What do you mean? The F1 field is the closest is has ever ever been, the cars is a lot faster and reliable, so much better. The sound is the only problem, and people always say "yeah, it was better that time when the cars blew up, drivers died all the time, with not that much speed & less competitive"
@@nicolaivedel5067 completly agree. They are impressed because camera tech stab was non existant, big sound and actually less speed in the corners. It used to be the great nap opportunity of sundays
@@nicolaivedel5067was real f1 with no electronic and manual gearbox, circiuts not perfect and clean as today and the sound was incredible. Today is a shit of playstation
@@nicolaivedel5067 Today schumi would have been penalized for his finger. There where real tracks no parking lots with some paint on it. No shit like forcing another car off the track. If they made a mistake they where lost in the gravel. No Nintendo Steering wheel. They had to shift real gear boxes. Put your DRS heroes into a car like this on a real circuit and you would have to cry. According to safety standards they improved. In the 90s 2 driver passed away. Two interesting races in 2019 rainy Hockenheim and canada. With a betrayed Winner for what reason? .. A little bit of real racing.
Yer, except just two years later he was the one being the arrogant asshole, shunting Damon Hill out of the Australian GP. Retrospectively, I wish Hill had not tried the move on the inside as Schumacher's car had sustained damage when he hit the wall and Hill would have easily breezed passed him down Dequetteville Tce (with Schumacher likely into retirement soon thereafter).
It was fair play by Berger. Not letting a rival through can potentially be the difference between coming out of the pits ahead or behind later on in the race.
Imagina se ele não tivesse errado na freada quando tocou o bico e teve que trocar, eu lembro bem pq acompanho F1 a 40 anos, Schumacher era muito impulsivo no começo, nessa fase da Benetton teve várias corridas que ele bateu e teve que abandonar, me lembra o começo do Verstappen que tb batia e errava, com o tempo os dois foram amadureçendo e se tornado campeões, não estou comparando tecnicamente acho Shumacher superior.
@@ailtondemetercojr4828verdade muitos brasileiros não gosta do Schumacher , só porque ele foi campeão no ano que o Senna morreu e no ano seguinte, e depois porque quando o Rubinho entrou na Ferrari ele.ja sabia que ia ser segundo.piloto, e alguns brasileiros fazem vista grossa achando que Barrichello iria ter as mesmas regalias que o Alemão, Schumacher é meu ídolo e pra mim ele foi o melhor piloto de F1 de todos os tempos.
One of the best F1 incar segments I have ever seen. Thanks for uploading. Absolutely wonderful to see how committed the man is every single inch of every lap. Some liked him (I did) many didn't … and many didn't understand him, but you have to give him one thing … he was a great, great driver. Tragedy what has happened to him. Uno dei migliori segmenti incar di F1 che abbia mai visto. Grazie per aver caricato. Assolutamente meraviglioso vedere come l'uomo era impegnato ogni singolo centimetro di ogni giro. Alcuni hanno trovate Michael simpatic(io si) molti non... e molti lui non capivano, ma devi dargli una cosa... è stato un grande, grande pilota. Tragedia accaduto a lui.
That was what the difference made in that cars: just being more brave. Having the bigger balls to go faster trough curves, beeing the latest on the brakes etc. You can see Schumachers brilliance from the very beginning of his career.
Benetton Ford, V8, lighter than the V10 and V12, he breaks late late later than the other pilots. He's been fantastic. Fantastic video as well, Thank you 🙂 If you have more !?!😉
its clear that they were using it to decelerate the car. it was designed to do this because ayrton would over rev on down shifts. however michael's car sounds like its blowing up an sounds horrible compared.
@@treatb09 because he is downshifting across the gates he needs to sync a much higher rpm gap, thus he guestimates that he will be close to max revs when releasing the clutch and everything appears to be harsh, triggering the shift light too. it is probably faster accross the gates since these cars have incredible stoping power, making it difficult to downshift sequentially in sync with the brakes. you can see the difference in your road car too, sequentially downshifting from 5th gear at say 3500 rpm into 2nd gear will be much more easier if done by constantly bliping 800 rpm (5-4-3-2) or so than adding 2500rpm when going straight to 2nd.
@@snowleopard4689 to put it simply...everything is happening too fast to rev match all the way down the box and Micheal is using alot of engine braking to get himself slowed down.
Sorry dude, but not true. The `92 Williams FW14B is still considered to be one of the must advanced F1 cars to date. The regulation change came after the `92 season.
What a video - bloody brilliant. LOL at how Berger stiffed h even though he knew he was going to box at the end of the lap! Michael flipped him the bird but he learned well because he did the same to Lewis Hamilton several years later on exactly the same piece of track!
@@whatsappdripcar3104 Hi "Mom", you should watch Figure Skating instead. The Halo is the ugliest Mod in F.1 history, which has all but destroyed the Classic On Board camera angle. Its F.1. there is an inherit risk....or as Andrea pointed out, at least there use to be more of one. Thus why Die Hard fans like her, myself and MANY others can truly appreciate the video posted.
@@whatsappdripcar3104 "Driver Safety" my golden arse! And "Raging?" I wasnt raging. Here, let me show you what raging looks like, my Keyboard Hero friend. - The Halo. Also known as the worst looking F.1 modification in history. Let's not even talk about the "On Board" camera shots, which before this Mod were once known as the best camera angle in F.1. Inherit risk has ALWAYS accompanied being an F.1 Driver, which believe it or not has ALWAYS added to the mystique and appeal of the sport. A part of the reason many admire F.1 Drivers is because they do what they do in the face of death. You want safety? As I said, take up Figure Skating or continue playing your "Safe" version of F.1 on the PS4. Making racing "safe", takes away from what racing always was historically. A sport for our heroes to face off against death, like modern day Gladiators, whilst we admire them for it and raise them up to legendary status for it. Senna is in part whom he is for his death. Not all, but a lot of the younger generation of F.1 fans seldom know their F.1 history and therein many of them wouldn't understand how the "Halo" flies in the face of F.1 history and what it's Pre-Halo drivers, through sheer confidence, courage and bravery were able to accomplish in and for the sport without it. The numbers speak for themselves regards what has happened to F.1's popularity after the induction of the Halo. Read for yourself - www.forbes.com/sites/csylt/2019/04/28/f1-crash-continues-as-free-to-air-tv-audience-reverses-by-30-in-britain/#42569b221f1cI know the inherit risk at my line of work and accept it. As do most, if not all of us. As does every F.1 Driver. I appreciate your comment looking out for F.1 Driver's, but most F.1 drivers already have a mum and therefrom dont need you to be their mother. If life and driver safety is your concern, why are you wasting your time posting here? By the numbers more people die worldwide (driving a lot slower than F.1) on the Motorway every single day, than have passed on the track in the entire history of F.1. If crash accidents/death are so ugly for you than why dont you go post something like your posting where it matters? Perhaps because comments such as yours are only provided by "Keyboard Heroes" such as yourself? Your opinion on the Halo is the view of the minority of F.1 fans. The Race-weekend Hotels, the Race Tickets, the Race Gear, Etc. that Ive spent money on regards F.1 was not for free. I believe at the moment, the highest paid F.1 Driver's earn something like 30-40 million pounds a year. Those guys are getting paid that for many reasons. One of those reasons is (again)..inherit risk. Guys like me support F.1 because....well God, there are too many reasons to mention, some reasons Ive already mentioned to you today. I.e. its not watching guys sit down and play cards. Among other injuries causing Senna's death, Car debris from Senna's car had pierced his helmet, causing multiple fractures at the base of his skull. Halo, would have done zilch. Now as per Leclerc and Bianchi, where are the facts, other than F.1. selling their "facts" to guys like me, that the Halo saved them? Facts from multiple sources regards Senna's death are all over the net. At my old age I dont easily believe all I read, hear or see. You send me an independent inquiry by a third party not affiliated to F.1 or the manufactures of the Halo (stating your facts, regards their deaths) and I will say, yes you were right regarding Leclerc and Bianchi. That said, even if you are right, that does not take away at all from my first few paragraphs i.e. the historic spirit of the sport. Listen, I dont want to see any of these guys in F.1 die....heck I dont want to see anyone die, trust me I dont. But modern-day F.1 is erasing its own incredible history by changing the sport. Change, not in little ways, but massive ways. Maybe not regards everything, but, regards F.1 I, (like many) am a traditionalist and a purist. The facts are the facts, F.1 and its modern version of itself (including the Halo) are not fairing so well. Just a snippet provided in the link Ive sent you. Why the decline in Fans/viewership? Well some of the reasons I mentioned to you today and that doesnt mean that I and others of the same opinion as myself want to see people die. Everyone from the dawn of age (including me) has always wanted (and will always want) the Gladiator to reign triumphant.
Seeing this in our living room the sofa started to shakin' , carpet became tarmac, and my family doesn't understand why i watch this in a helmet....Thanks Michael
He actually upshifts progressively, but when he downshifts after braking he goes from 6th to 3rd gear directly. That helps him to gain a lot of time. Pure genius!!!
@@R9naldo Mansell said one of the downsides to the semi automatic gearbox when Ferrari first introduced it was that he couldn’t do block changes on the downshift and skip gears. I do block changes all the time in my road car. If you aren’t coming off the clutch and putting it into gear there’s no point going through them all
@@jrp312 i have a 5 speed H gate and I skip gears on the down shift as well. My wife has an automatic that I can set to semi- automatic. I hate the fact that I have to go through every gear....
I love the style of the mechanics of that era. No overalls, just a team jersey, and a set of pants, and that's all... And gotta love the fact that some mecahnics wearing glasses...
At that time no refueling. Starting from 1994 when refueling is re-introduced, Nomex coverall was made mandatory. The rule stuck even-though refueling is already banned again.
Berger's weaving and blocking into the Ascari 'S' Would have had me pulling fingers as well, and yelling and screaming and probably sending both of us into the gravel in broken cars if I was in Schumi's seat, which is probably why I'm not an F1 driver.
Shows that Michael was great driver, he was the next Senna back when he was younger. To compare him against Vettel? Schumi was much better driver hands down.

Senna allegedly pushed for his former flatmate and fellow Brazilian Maurício Gugelmin to join the team as a pure number two driver, but the team's major sponsor John Player & Sons (JPS) insisted on a British driver which led to the signing of Dumfries. 1987 The team guaranteed Senna contractually preferential treatment over Nakajima in the allocation of equipment.Lotus used new secret helping electronics to win in 1987It was the "invention of the year" and the newest F1 thing in 1987 (computer controlled technique).

Prost responded and went to pass Senna at the end of the first lap. Senna swerved to block Prost, forcing the Frenchman to nearly run into the pit wall at 290 km/h (180 mph). Prost kept his foot down and soon edged Senna into the first corner and started pulling away. Though Prost was angered by Senna's manoeuvre, the Brazilian got away with a warning from the FIA. At the postrace team debrief, Prost voiced his anger at the move which prompted Senna to apologize to Prost for the incident. 1990 Suzuka - Senna secured the pole, but was unhappy with the side of the track it was situated on, claiming that pole should always be on the racing line. He and Gerhard Berger then went to the Japanese stewards, to request a change of position of pole to the cleaner left side of the track. The stewards initially agreed but an injunction by FISA president Jean Marie Balestre later that night rejected the decision and the original pole position remained on the dirtier, less grippy right side of the track. In addition, as revealed by F1 journalist, Maurice Hamilton,[2] the FIA had warned that crossing the yellow line of the pit exit on the right to better position oneself at the first corner would have not been appropriate, further infuriating Senna.Some in the F1 paddock found Senna's complaints as strange given that the pole was actually on the same side of the track (the inside next to the pit wall) as it had been since the first Japanese Grand Prix held there in 1987. Many also noted that Senna had not complained about the position of the pole in either 1988 or 1989, both races he had started on pole and both races he was fighting Prost (who qualified 2nd in both years) for the World Championship.After this, Senna vowed that if Prost (starting second) got the advantage into the first corner, which most were sure he would, Senna would attempt to take the lead into the first corner, regardless of the consequences. At the beginning of the race, Prost pulled ahead of Senna, who immediately tried to repass Prost at the first corner. While Prost turned in, Senna kept his foot on the accelerator and the cars collided at 270 km/h (170 mph) and spun out of the race, making Senna world champion. 1992 At a test session for the German Grand Prix, Senna and Schumacher had a confrontation in the pits, with Senna grabbing Schumacher by the collar and accusing him of endangering him by blocking him on the track.

I might need to look it up but I'm pretty sure around '92 before they had semi-auto, they came up with a gearbox that would let them just shove it into the gear required for the corner, drop the clutch and just ride the rev-limiter on the brakes. I may be wrong, but this video triggered some dormant memories of something like that. Some sort of slipper-clutch system like modern motorbikes use perhaps?
@@corngrohlio do you mean a sort of clutch assist system on this car? as to me I have some doubts for this, but maybe I'm wrong. if you have any proofs for this, pls provide it. for sure we can hear while downshifting so long revving on the brakes. it seems like directly engaging into required gear for the corner staying on the throttle. at the same time you can find the same technique watching Prost's and Senna's Mclaren onboards before semi-auto era.
CnCExpert At least you're not like the others who say there's electronic assists and "the drivers are just sitting, the car does all the work". I agree with you almost a 100%. Saving the tires is fine but the other factors make an F1 race look like an endurance race
Ladies and Gentleman: 10:35 and the driver must give an extra 30minutes press conference afterwards. telling what was on his mind and what he thinks about the future of the sport and all the viewers who "had to see that".
NexusCool1 I fail to see what Berger did wrong. He left his car in the middle of the track. Schumacher was just frustrated that there wasn't room to get past.
Adam Clarke No, actually Berger moved across as though he would let Schumi past, then moved back across and blocked him again. Berger had every intetntion of pitting in, and so should have let Schumi pass as it made no difference to his position, but it did cost Schumi a couple of seconds.
Adam Clarke Haha you may have a point, but that's racing! Driver actions are always open to interpretation, by both the audience and the drivers themselves! Cheers bud :)
for those you are unaware... this is the racing era where they had manual shifting and driver instinct mattered more than the technologgy. if anyone has tried racing carts, you would know a little about what it takes to shave off seconds per laps and what awesome judgement it takes to pass. but f1 is at the top with speeds requiring almost inhuman timing and instinct.... shumacher will always be legend because he raced at the top through several generations of car rules and modification of rules.
I was going to say - active suspension? Ferrari had paddle shifting in 1989 already. Senna, Prost, Mansell all drove through some insane rules changes by then, especially Prost. Ground-effect, turbos, etc. The big difference between then & now is the design tools, makes a huge difference to reliability, and the analysis tools. Brundle came 2nd in Michael's car, it was not a bad car...
Why we say from Schumacher that he is on the same level as Senna? For example this race or 2006 Brazilian grand prix, 1994 spanish grand prix, 1996 spanish grand prix (4 to 5 seconds faster than anyone else). I guess these reasons are enough.
I was wondering why Schumacher was being passed by so many cars very early on - presumably that collision damage to the nose. I have no idea how much, if any, radio contact he had with the pits unless he chose to bring the car in having made the decision himself. All the same, I can certainly ‘feel’ the determination to really drive to the limit once he was back out on track and that feeling in a driver must be fantastic!
Incredible to see how much more road Michael was using on exiting turns than all the other drivers back then… with the exception of Berger. Michael let that car “walk out” on the exits, especially on the right handlers. letting the car do its thing, carrying speed all the way the way through. where as everyone else was just scrubbing speed and fighting the steering wheel / the car. I also noticed a couple of those downshifts were without any blips and waaaay into the rev limiter - a testament of how well those engines/ gearboxes were built back then. Thanks for sharing!
I'd like to have that dream as well. But, the fact of the matter is the era he raced in is like Mars to the Earth... The cars he and the rest of the field raced then were purely driven by themselves! No aids, nothing! Today they really just sit and enjoy the ride... Michael Schumacher will be and has been etched in all of our hearts and minds forever. The history recorders engraved his name on many a trophy and record books. We remember by talking about this era and share with the youngster racers like him and others. And as wonderful as the internet is these races live on in the digital realm...
Each year? After each quali they would tear down the car and have new engines and gearboxes fitted. That's why they needed a warm-up session Sunday morning, cuz everything that mattered was new. So they used to break at least two engines every weekend, because the quali engine was designed to only work for a few laps and the race engine was designed to work only for one race. And they also had spare cars, so if your car broke in the warm-up session or if you totally wrecked it in the quali, top teams like Ferrari, McLaren or Williams had one extra prepared for their no 1 driver. I even remember when Schumacher spun in the warm-up lap at Nurburgring and left the car on the track, thus delaying the start, which game him enough time to be rushed back into the pits and put in the spare car, so he wouldn't miss the first lap of the race. That was crazy stuff!!!
The battle of the driver and the machine ist just fenomenal. The battle of dominance. Thats the thing that modern motorsports lacks. Pure war between man / machine (beast) !!!
Fantastic video, thanks for share man. Really impressed how Michael with a gap of 70cv compared to Renault RS3C passed the Ligier pretty easy, It makes me think that during the race the Renault was setting less RPM and power for be sure to finish race. I love this things, thanks again. Cristian
Great camera angle to watch the master at work. See how much distance he gains through the chicanes over his competitors. Love it how he gives Berger the middle finger!
No annoying music, no voice over commentary , just Schumi . . . Perfect.
Monstruoso.... E avassalador......
Murray Walker could have said a few things...I wouldn't have minded that lol. But yes, you have a good point. Simply racing. Good stuff
Not only Michael was the last driver racing who once raced a stick shift F1 car when he retired in 2012, he was the last driver to win with a stick shift 20 years earlier.
Wow, great stuff!. Well spotted!

The glory days of F1 racing. Real balls to the wall stuff. Man and machine on the absolute limit. Incredible.
Love it when he gives the finger to Gerrhard berger😂
Yes because Gherard is been not fair in the straight that brought them to Ascari, he moved zig zag too much.
Very much deserved for this dirty move coming towards Ascari
Cause he should've make way for Michael like all the other drivers did?
@@BorisNoiseChannel I thought I made it clear, that it´s just about the dirtyness of this move. Things like this could easily end like Ralf Schumacher and Villeneuve incident in Melbourne 2001 with a dead Marshal :(
@@FrontPlayer01 As JPM put it - I haven't killed anyone this year...
Good old times when drivers could still do mistakes while changing gears but overcome them with their immense talent. Here Schumi put the car in 5th gear instead of 3rd gear twice, at the start of the race (hence the time lost and subsequent accident) and getting out of the pits after the front wing change, but he still manage to finish 3rd. Brilliant piece of driving and one of the best onboard ever. Not to mention the old 2nd Lesmo corner with the stands, my favorite spot when I was a kid attending the summer tests every year with my father.
11:09 also.
he took enginebraking to another level.
Greatest driver ever, change gear with a stick,no radio coms back then. None of this "my car got a problem what can I do bullshit"
I loved this era,and the 80's
They did have radios
far from the greatest. the greatest driver isnt scared to race a different series unlike schumacher was. a driver like jacques, graham hill, Jim Clark, jacky ickx are all far better drivers than schumacher
This video shows Micheals genius; his turn in and corner speed: never slides the car or needs to use opposite lock for a slide j,udges the car to perfection takes it to the limit without mistakes. What a wonderful historic primary source. Thank you for this,
He's sliding the car constantly moron you just can't see it
Pit Lane was totally out of control back then. People everywhere, no speed limits. Crazy
safety for what
Speed limit, get in, get out as fast as you can.
Why aren't those people wearing helmets!?
@@lordjoemott1683 the less time you spend in the pits, the less time there is for things to go wrong.

ABSOLUTLY LOVED THIS :) doesnt matter how hard your pusing, always have time to give someone the bird.
He was immense, utterly immense. Like all greats he could be uncompromising and I didn't enjoy the team orders but some of the performances in qualifying and race were mind boggling. I hope he is functioning better than the doom we hear in the press as he brought a lot of excitement and enjoyment to many people for many years.
holy shit we need a compilation of schumacher performing engine breaking when f1 still had manual gearboxes
this is intense!!!
There were no blipping gear change downshifts with Stirling Moss levels of finesse, were there? It was just jam that fucker from WOT in 6th straight into 3rd and be damned. Three times a lap. Epic stuff.
@@ivanjulian2532 Yeah man, hearing that thing bounce off the rev limiter on the hard braking is epic. Heel and toe manual downshifting shifting, just slamming those gears down whilst bouncing the red line. Ruthless!
when you see on board with someone like Senna or Schumacher , you see why they were so good, its not just the skill, they are both nuts behind an F1 car wheel, pure confidence in they are right on the line..but just on the edge of to much awesome
We do miss him all. Michael, we love you.
The man was possessed, no question about it. No ordinary human being would attack every corner like that.
And the recovery after exiting the pits, in the chicane, is savage!
Senna woud, and did.
no senna died
Raul Maier like your comment. I think being possessed made him the fastest driver. Senna was possessed too!
@@hugolafhugolaf Senna was an arrogant loser, Michael has 7 world championships!!!
I'm pretty sure that senna would have more titles if he had survived that day in imola. Senna could do the "impossible". He could won races that no one else's could. He did things that you could only see in a movie.. even when he was driving a shit car. Senna is the king of Monaco, King of wet track and the best driver that ever lived.
What a treat to have a drivers POV from an era when we were seldom shown such a thing when watching live on the BBC etc. Equally, what a shame it appears that Michael is unable to kick-back and enjoy his exploits, as indeed he should. That must have been one of the drives of his career, the sheer will and determination coupled with a rapidly evolving skill. Simply stunning driving and humbling to watch.
What's amazing is that he fought his way back to finish 3rd
Engine breaking past the limiter! Crazy though lol.
Michael on a mission.
I'm pretty sure he was jamming the gearbox from 6th into 3rd no less than three times a lap. That rev limiter red light in his cockpit... it was through the roof. His engineers must have been in shock when they saw the data.
Yeah, I was thinking to myself...this engine has been well built with the amount of over revving going on!

Today schumi would have been penalized for his finger. There where real tracks no parking lots with some paint on it. No shit like forcing another car off the track. If they made a mistake they where lost in the gravel.
No Nintendo Steering wheel.
They had to shift real gear boxes. Put your DRS heroes into a car like this on a real circuit and you would have to cry.
According to safety standards they improved. In the 90s 2 driver passed away.
Two interesting races in 2019 rainy Hockenheim and canada. With a betrayed Winner for what reason?
.. A little bit of real racing.
The finger at 10:37 is for Berger holding M.S. up by an aggressive move at 10:04 and leaving the track for a pitstop anyways afterwards.
Yer, except just two years later he was the one being the arrogant asshole, shunting Damon Hill out of the Australian GP. Retrospectively, I wish Hill had not tried the move on the inside as Schumacher's car had sustained damage when he hit the wall and Hill would have easily breezed passed him down Dequetteville Tce (with Schumacher likely into retirement soon thereafter).

Uma recuperação fantástica.
Imagina se ele não tivesse errado na freada quando tocou o bico e teve que trocar, eu lembro bem pq acompanho F1 a 40 anos, Schumacher era muito impulsivo no começo, nessa fase da Benetton teve várias corridas que ele bateu e teve que abandonar, me lembra o começo do Verstappen que tb batia e errava, com o tempo os dois foram amadureçendo e se tornado campeões, não estou comparando tecnicamente acho Shumacher superior.
@@ailtondemetercojr4828verdade muitos brasileiros não gosta do Schumacher , só porque ele foi campeão no ano que o Senna morreu e no ano seguinte, e depois porque quando o Rubinho entrou na Ferrari ele.ja sabia que ia ser segundo.piloto, e alguns brasileiros fazem vista grossa achando que Barrichello iria ter as mesmas regalias que o Alemão, Schumacher é meu ídolo e pra mim ele foi o melhor piloto de F1 de todos os tempos.
One of the best F1 incar segments I have ever seen. Thanks for uploading.
Absolutely wonderful to see how committed the man is every single inch of every lap. Some liked him (I did) many didn't … and many didn't understand him, but you have to give him one thing … he was a great, great driver. Tragedy what has happened to him.
Uno dei migliori segmenti incar di F1 che abbia mai visto. Grazie per aver caricato.
Assolutamente meraviglioso vedere come l'uomo era impegnato ogni singolo centimetro di ogni giro. Alcuni hanno trovate Michael simpatic(io si) molti non... e molti lui non capivano, ma devi dargli una cosa... è stato un grande, grande pilota. Tragedia accaduto a lui.
That was what the difference made in that cars: just being more brave. Having the bigger balls to go faster trough curves, beeing the latest on the brakes etc.
You can see Schumachers brilliance from the very beginning of his career.
All those people standing in the pits...........they were crazy back then
Especially the guy with the nose jack standing directly in front of Shumi's car when he came into the pits for a new front wing.
Nah in old days ppls are not scared same as in rally around 1980,ppls can nearly touch rally cars in full speed...

Fantastic video as well, Thank you 🙂
If you have more !?!😉
His downshift sounded real scary, the gearbox must have been through hell for this race
это точно
its clear that they were using it to decelerate the car. it was designed to do this because ayrton would over rev on down shifts. however michael's car sounds like its blowing up an sounds horrible compared.
@@treatb09 because he is downshifting across the gates he needs to sync a much higher rpm gap, thus he guestimates that he will be close to max revs when releasing the clutch and everything appears to be harsh, triggering the shift light too. it is probably faster accross the gates since these cars have incredible stoping power, making it difficult to downshift sequentially in sync with the brakes. you can see the difference in your road car too, sequentially downshifting from 5th gear at say 3500 rpm into 2nd gear will be much more easier if done by constantly bliping 800 rpm (5-4-3-2) or so than adding 2500rpm when going straight to 2nd.
@@snowleopard4689 to put it simply...everything is happening too fast to rev match all the way down the box and Micheal is using alot of engine braking to get himself slowed down.
the whole car was put through hell.....np pussyfooting there and then.....:-)

Sorry dude, but not true. The `92 Williams FW14B is still considered to be one of the must advanced F1 cars to date. The regulation change came after the `92 season.
F1 had several eras where traction control was allowed and used, it was reintroduced in 2001 for example and banned again in 2008
What a video - bloody brilliant.
LOL at how Berger stiffed h even though he knew he was going to box at the end of the lap!
Michael flipped him the bird but he learned well because he did the same to Lewis Hamilton several years later on exactly the same piece of track!
No DRS, no Halo, screaming engine sounds, simple front wings. Back when F1 was great.
Sadly Formula E is the future of F1 so boring to watch even though the cars are a lot faster today than back in the 90s and early 00s
I’m all for the halo because I want the the athletes involved in my favorite sport to be well protected
@@whatsappdripcar3104 Hi "Mom", you should watch Figure Skating instead. The Halo is the ugliest Mod in F.1 history, which has all but destroyed the Classic On Board camera angle. Its F.1. there is an inherit risk....or as Andrea pointed out, at least there use to be more of one. Thus why Die Hard fans like her, myself and MANY others can truly appreciate the video posted.
agioni99 all I did was express my opinion on the halo....you don’t have to rage at me for caring about driver safety....
@@whatsappdripcar3104 "Driver Safety" my golden arse! And "Raging?" I wasnt raging. Here, let me show you what raging looks like, my Keyboard Hero friend. - The Halo. Also known as the worst looking F.1 modification in history. Let's not even talk about the "On Board" camera shots, which before this Mod were once known as the best camera angle in F.1. Inherit risk has ALWAYS accompanied being an F.1 Driver, which believe it or not has ALWAYS added to the mystique and appeal of the sport. A part of the reason many admire F.1 Drivers is because they do what they do in the face of death. You want safety? As I said, take up Figure Skating or continue playing your "Safe" version of F.1 on the PS4. Making racing "safe", takes away from what racing always was historically. A sport for our heroes to face off against death, like modern day Gladiators, whilst we admire them for it and raise them up to legendary status for it. Senna is in part whom he is for his death. Not all, but a lot of the younger generation of F.1 fans seldom know their F.1 history and therein many of them wouldn't understand how the "Halo" flies in the face of F.1 history and what it's Pre-Halo drivers, through sheer confidence, courage and bravery were able to accomplish in and for the sport without it. The numbers speak for themselves regards what has happened to F.1's popularity after the induction of the Halo. Read for yourself - www.forbes.com/sites/csylt/2019/04/28/f1-crash-continues-as-free-to-air-tv-audience-reverses-by-30-in-britain/#42569b221f1cI know the inherit risk at my line of work and accept it. As do most, if not all of us. As does every F.1 Driver. I appreciate your comment looking out for F.1 Driver's, but most F.1 drivers already have a mum and therefrom dont need you to be their mother. If life and driver safety is your concern, why are you wasting your time posting here? By the numbers more people die worldwide (driving a lot slower than F.1) on the Motorway every single day, than have passed on the track in the entire history of F.1. If crash accidents/death are so ugly for you than why dont you go post something like your posting where it matters? Perhaps because comments such as yours are only provided by "Keyboard Heroes" such as yourself? Your opinion on the Halo is the view of the minority of F.1 fans. The Race-weekend Hotels, the Race Tickets, the Race Gear, Etc. that Ive spent money on regards F.1 was not for free. I believe at the moment, the highest paid F.1 Driver's earn something like 30-40 million pounds a year. Those guys are getting paid that for many reasons. One of those reasons is (again)..inherit risk. Guys like me support F.1 because....well God, there are too many reasons to mention, some reasons Ive already mentioned to you today. I.e. its not watching guys sit down and play cards. Among other injuries causing Senna's death, Car debris from Senna's car had pierced his helmet, causing multiple fractures at the base of his skull. Halo, would have done zilch. Now as per Leclerc and Bianchi, where are the facts, other than F.1. selling their "facts" to guys like me, that the Halo saved them? Facts from multiple sources regards Senna's death are all over the net. At my old age I dont easily believe all I read, hear or see. You send me an independent inquiry by a third party not affiliated to F.1 or the manufactures of the Halo (stating your facts, regards their deaths) and I will say, yes you were right regarding Leclerc and Bianchi. That said, even if you are right, that does not take away at all from my first few paragraphs i.e. the historic spirit of the sport. Listen, I dont want to see any of these guys in F.1 die....heck I dont want to see anyone die, trust me I dont. But modern-day F.1 is erasing its own incredible history by changing the sport. Change, not in little ways, but massive ways. Maybe not regards everything, but, regards F.1 I, (like many) am a traditionalist and a purist. The facts are the facts, F.1 and its modern version of itself (including the Halo) are not fairing so well. Just a snippet provided in the link Ive sent you. Why the decline in Fans/viewership? Well some of the reasons I mentioned to you today and that doesnt mean that I and others of the same opinion as myself want to see people die. Everyone from the dawn of age (including me) has always wanted (and will always want) the Gladiator to reign triumphant.

He actually upshifts progressively, but when he downshifts after braking he goes from 6th to 3rd gear directly. That helps him to gain a lot of time. Pure genius!!!

Panos Egglezos "pants"??? Their not in their underwear pal.
Berger's weaving and blocking into the Ascari 'S' Would have had me pulling fingers as well, and yelling and screaming and probably sending both of us into the gravel in broken cars if I was in Schumi's seat, which is probably why I'm not an F1 driver.

Great show, just a pleasure watching Schumacher take that car to the edge or slightly over every time on entry to every corner.
Shows that Michael was great driver, he was the next Senna back when he was younger. To compare him against Vettel? Schumi was much better driver hands down.

Joan Villadelprat on Senna and Schumacher:
"Senna was in the best team, which was at that time, with 100 more horses than us who had the Ford-Cosworth engine, and we ate it ... until the accident came, but we were ahead in the championship. And it was not just because of Schumacher. It was one of these sweet moments, Benetton was in shape. In tire changes and pit-stops we were the fastest. In fact, we won several races for this. There was a change of regulation where we prepared ourselves better. It would have been nice to see the fight between Senna and Michael, but I am convinced that Michael would have won. Because seeing Senna, so many years and knowing him, knowing what it cost him, how he got out of the car, etc. and see Michael after races at 50 degrees, win them and get out of the car as if he had had a coffee ... The physical form that Michael had at that time and his mental strength, however natural Ayrton had, by a lot of skill, I would have overcome. For Ayrton it was a much greater effort than for Michael."

Senna's cheating accolades:
1985
His determination to take pole at the Monaco Grand Prix had infuriated Alboreto and Niki Lauda; Senna had set a fast time early and was accused of deliberately baulking the other drivers by running more laps than necessary, a charge he rejected, though the accusations would continue in Canada when drivers accused him of running on the racing line when on his slow down lap forcing others on qualifiers to move off line and lose time.
ruclips.net/video/tbNLHGJUGTQ/видео.html
1986
De Angelis was replaced at Lotus by Scotland's Johnny Dumfries after Senna vetoed Derek Warwick from joining the team, saying that Lotus could not run competitive cars for two top drivers at the same time. Senna allegedly pushed for his former flatmate and fellow Brazilian Maurício Gugelmin to join the team as a pure number two driver, but the team's major sponsor John Player & Sons (JPS) insisted on a British driver which led to the signing of Dumfries.
1987
The team guaranteed Senna contractually preferential treatment over Nakajima in the allocation of equipment.Lotus used new secret helping electronics to win in 1987It was the "invention of the year" and the newest F1 thing in 1987 (computer controlled technique). It was designed for automatic acceleration and computerized traction control. Also an automatic, hydraulic wheel control was installed and many more like breaking control .. controlled by a black-box. It was a very big advantage, f.e. in the rain.

Adelaide 1987
Senna finished second but was later disqualified when post race scrutineering revealed oversized brake ducts on his Lotus.
ruclips.net/video/ALMYI3vUiZg/видео.html
1988
Brasil - Senna's first race for McLaren got off to a bad start when the cars gear selector broke on the grid, causing a restart. The Brazilian was eventually disqualified for switching to the spare car after the green flag had been waved following the warm-up lap. ruclips.net/video/q-4qD9clvL4/видео.html
Portugal - Prost made a slightly faster start than Senna, but the Brazilian dived into the first corner ahead. Prost responded and went to pass Senna at the end of the first lap. Senna swerved to block Prost, forcing the Frenchman to nearly run into the pit wall at 290 km/h (180 mph). Prost kept his foot down and soon edged Senna into the first corner and started pulling away. Though Prost was angered by Senna's manoeuvre, the Brazilian got away with a warning from the FIA. At the postrace team debrief, Prost voiced his anger at the move which prompted Senna to apologize to Prost for the incident.
1990
Suzuka - Senna secured the pole, but was unhappy with the side of the track it was situated on, claiming that pole should always be on the racing line. He and Gerhard Berger then went to the Japanese stewards, to request a change of position of pole to the cleaner left side of the track. The stewards initially agreed but an injunction by FISA president Jean Marie Balestre later that night rejected the decision and the original pole position remained on the dirtier, less grippy right side of the track. In addition, as revealed by F1 journalist, Maurice Hamilton,[2] the FIA had warned that crossing the yellow line of the pit exit on the right to better position oneself at the first corner would have not been appropriate, further infuriating Senna.Some in the F1 paddock found Senna's complaints as strange given that the pole was actually on the same side of the track (the inside next to the pit wall) as it had been since the first Japanese Grand Prix held there in 1987. Many also noted that Senna had not complained about the position of the pole in either 1988 or 1989, both races he had started on pole and both races he was fighting Prost (who qualified 2nd in both years) for the World Championship.After this, Senna vowed that if Prost (starting second) got the advantage into the first corner, which most were sure he would, Senna would attempt to take the lead into the first corner, regardless of the consequences.
At the beginning of the race, Prost pulled ahead of Senna, who immediately tried to repass Prost at the first corner. While Prost turned in, Senna kept his foot on the accelerator and the cars collided at 270 km/h (170 mph) and spun out of the race, making Senna world champion.
1992
At a test session for the German Grand Prix, Senna and Schumacher had a confrontation in the pits, with Senna grabbing Schumacher by the collar and accusing him of endangering him by blocking him on the track. But apparently it was ok when Senna gave Schumacher a "brake test" on the straights.
Senna was always loud when someone didn't see him in the mirrors, but it was OK when he "didn't see" in the mirros:Brazil 1992ruclips.net/video/vkPvLubnmWA/видео.htmlCanada 1993 ruclips.net/video/b6FGj2VaPTk/видео.html

Senna then courted Adriane Yamin, daughter of an entrepreneur from São Paulo, who was 15 years old when they began the relationship in 1985 and often chaperoned by her mother during meetings with Senna. They were briefly engaged, but the relationship was broken off by Senna in late 1988.

Perfect definition of driving the wheels off an F1 car
That was amazing gearing down and leaving it on redline to brake. And giving Berger the BIRD ! Classic ! Lol
+Guy Van Brussel also to go easier on the breaks :)
I might need to look it up but I'm pretty sure around '92 before they had semi-auto, they came up with a gearbox that would let them just shove it into the gear required for the corner, drop the clutch and just ride the rev-limiter on the brakes. I may be wrong, but this video triggered some dormant memories of something like that. Some sort of slipper-clutch system like modern motorbikes use perhaps?
corngrohlio definately a back-torque limiter on that car.
@@corngrohlio do you mean a sort of clutch assist system on this car? as to me I have some doubts for this, but maybe I'm wrong. if you have any proofs for this, pls provide it. for sure we can hear while downshifting so long revving on the brakes. it seems like directly engaging into required gear for the corner staying on the throttle. at the same time you can find the same technique watching Prost's and Senna's Mclaren onboards before semi-auto era.
The time i actually cared about F1!
And what a time it was! We must feel blessed in a way.
And what do we have now? Save tires, save engine, save fuel, save gearbox, lift and coast .....
CnCExpert At least you're not like the others who say there's electronic assists and "the drivers are just sitting, the car does all the work". I agree with you almost a 100%. Saving the tires is fine but the other factors make an F1 race look like an endurance race
And that’s different to this how?
I think today's F1 is focused on driver safety. Unfortunately, it hurts the sport.

L'un des meilleurs on board que j'ai vu... quelle puissance... c'est phenomenal 👍👍👍
I love the way he is able to look out of the side of the cockpit fo check how damaged his wing is.
Ladies and Gentleman: 10:35 and the driver must give an extra 30minutes press conference afterwards. telling what was on his mind and what he thinks about the future of the sport and all the viewers who "had to see that".
OH MY GOD!!! SCHUMI FOREVER!!! 10:35 SUPERLOL!!!!
Thanks for this. "What A Ride"!!!
Wow! Thank you so much Shumy 😱❤️🎶🔥🔥🔥🙏
Michael Schumacher Godfather of Formula1
Second godfather....
Senna
Monokult he is absolutely not The Godfather, Jim Clark is. Then it’s senna, Prost, then Schumacher.
Of course Michael is the best f1 driver
Toni Eid Senna
10:00 ....that's why middle finger at 10:35
NexusCool1 I fail to see what Berger did wrong. He left his car in the middle of the track. Schumacher was just frustrated that there wasn't room to get past.
Adam Clarke No, actually Berger moved across as though he would let Schumi past, then moved back across and blocked him again. Berger had every intetntion of pitting in, and so should have let Schumi pass as it made no difference to his position, but it did cost Schumi a couple of seconds.
I think me and you are watching different videos dude. Funny though, because Schumi, in his career, never moved more than once did he?.......;-)
Adam Clarke Haha you may have a point, but that's racing! Driver actions are always open to interpretation, by both the audience and the drivers themselves! Cheers bud :)
Adam Clarke Berger definitely changed his line. Was a dick move seeing that he was pitting that lap.
No commentary, pure v8 engine sound.Thanks for the video
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this. I had tears in my eyes watching this video.
No speedlimit in pitlane back then? Looks really crowded too.😱
Oh yes fuck all this rules of today🖕🏼🖕🏼
An artist at work!!! Awesome!!! Love the bird to Berger!!
Man that Is Beautiful!! Just Everything Is So Beautiful! Golden Day’s for Sure In My opinion, Golden Day’s for the Planet as well.
Such a brakes had this Benetton! Great video. Thanks.
for those you are unaware... this is the racing era where they had manual shifting and driver instinct mattered more than the technologgy. if anyone has tried racing carts, you would know a little about what it takes to shave off seconds per laps and what awesome judgement it takes to pass. but f1 is at the top with speeds requiring almost inhuman timing and instinct.... shumacher will always be legend because he raced at the top through several generations of car rules and modification of rules.
I was going to say - active suspension? Ferrari had paddle shifting in 1989 already. Senna, Prost, Mansell all drove through some insane rules changes by then, especially Prost. Ground-effect, turbos, etc. The big difference between then & now is the design tools, makes a huge difference to reliability, and the analysis tools.
Brundle came 2nd in Michael's car, it was not a bad car...
They changed the rules to stop him.
Why we say from Schumacher that he is on the same level as Senna? For example this race or 2006 Brazilian grand prix, 1994 spanish grand prix, 1996 spanish grand prix (4 to 5 seconds faster than anyone else). I guess these reasons are enough.
Schumi hadn't had so lucky if Senna wouldn't have died. In 94 season senna had been 1 second faster than Schumacher before he spun out.
I was wondering why Schumacher was being passed by so many cars very early on - presumably that collision damage to the nose. I have no idea how much, if any, radio contact he had with the pits unless he chose to bring the car in having made the decision himself. All the same, I can certainly ‘feel’ the determination to really drive to the limit once he was back out on track and that feeling in a driver must be fantastic!
@@robertomagnogil not in the races before imola
Incredible to see how much more road Michael was using on exiting turns than all the other drivers back then… with the exception of Berger. Michael let that car “walk out” on the exits, especially on the right handlers. letting the car do its thing, carrying speed all the way the way through. where as everyone else was just scrubbing speed and fighting the steering wheel / the car. I also noticed a couple of those downshifts were without any blips and waaaay into the rev limiter - a testament of how well those engines/ gearboxes were built back then. Thanks for sharing!
His poise, and driver expertise utilizing everything in his arsenal a little better or more than the field says it all!❤😊
Forever the Best Michael Schumacher!
Sou brasileiro mais tenho que reconhecer... Schumacher era fera... infelizmente hoje si encontra numa situação muito triste...força Schumacher
mas*, se*. Vc consegue escrever Schumacher certo mas não consegue escrever essas duas simples palavras? aí não hein
Impressionante como o Schumacher mantinha o giro do motor alto, assim ele obtinha enorme vantagem nas saída das curvas...
what a driver. Saw him just the once in Melbourne 2010. No-one else comes close to him as a driver or winner.
i wish ill have the chance once again in my life , to see someone as talented as he was. this guy was on a whole new level
I'd like to have that dream as well. But, the fact of the matter is the era he raced in is like Mars to the Earth... The cars he and the rest of the field raced then were purely driven by themselves! No aids, nothing! Today they really just sit and enjoy the ride... Michael Schumacher will be and has been etched in all of our hearts and minds forever. The history recorders engraved his name on many a trophy and record books. We remember by talking about this era and share with the youngster racers like him and others. And as wonderful as the internet is these races live on in the digital realm...
Schumi!
the greatest!
I love how each lap was different back then and how they insanely used the engine brake, whereas they broke a lot of engines each year
Each year? After each quali they would tear down the car and have new engines and gearboxes fitted. That's why they needed a warm-up session Sunday morning, cuz everything that mattered was new. So they used to break at least two engines every weekend, because the quali engine was designed to only work for a few laps and the race engine was designed to work only for one race. And they also had spare cars, so if your car broke in the warm-up session or if you totally wrecked it in the quali, top teams like Ferrari, McLaren or Williams had one extra prepared for their no 1 driver. I even remember when Schumacher spun in the warm-up lap at Nurburgring and left the car on the track, thus delaying the start, which game him enough time to be rushed back into the pits and put in the spare car, so he wouldn't miss the first lap of the race. That was crazy stuff!!!
I love his driving skills from day 1 !!
keep well soon Michael !!!
The battle of the driver and the machine ist just fenomenal. The battle of dominance. Thats the thing that modern motorsports lacks. Pure war between man / machine (beast) !!!
THE BEST F1 DRIVER OF ALL TIME.
MR MICHAEL SCHUMACHER!
Unbelievable engine noise from Ford Cosworth HB-4 power supply. it's wonderful. 🏁
Fantastic video, thanks for share man. Really impressed how Michael with a gap of 70cv compared to Renault RS3C passed the Ligier pretty easy, It makes me think that during the race the Renault was setting less RPM and power for be sure to finish race. I love this things, thanks again. Cristian
Absolutely amazing
This is my favourite version of Monza.
HOLY SHIT!! NO SPEED LIMIT IN THE PIT LANE
Pitlane speed limit was only introduced in 1994
Those were the days! Freaking crazy!! You had to be on your toes!
No fire safety suits on the pit crew either, lol. The pits were crazy back then.
Thanks for sharing nice bit of video,gratzi gratzi.
Great camera angle to watch the master at work. See how much distance he gains through the chicanes over his competitors. Love it how he gives Berger the middle finger!
