This video is one of the best examples of Schumacher at his prime. Not in the best car but going all out and achieving pole position. Even the color commentator John Watson is flabbergasted.
Nowadays the middle sector is way further than it was before (after the piscine chicane), but Max today reminded me of this astonishing lap delivered by the GOAT himself Michael Schumacher. Verstappen gained 3 tenths in 3 corners, Schumi gained 7 tenths in 7 corners. Two of the best performances in terms of driving skills.
The 2017 cars are faster by 8 seconds, but this old 1996 video makes the cars back then 'feel' faster. Compare it with the 2017 broadcast and notice how much the position of the cameras have changed. The positioning here gives a better sense of speed. The new positioning of the cameras now don't quite have the same effect, so the cars looked slower, despite going much faster. But I think the best camera angles were in the 2000-2002 era, if you watch those replays. I wish race organizers in Monaco look at where the cameras were placed in 2001 and copy them for 2018.
leadlefthand don't forget that the second Piscine chicane is much faster now than it was in 1996, Rascasse is also shorter now, so I think there's about 2 seconds just by the track
Modern cars also look waaay slower because they are almost, if not, twice as big. They started getting bigger around 2009-2010 and then again in 2017. Modern cars look like buses compared to the older ones. Just look at comparison images of the different generations of cars. These days they look disgusting.
he was 2 tenths down at the 2nd sector, so he found 7 tenths in the final sector. absolutely outrageous. you know it's special when a former driver gets excited like that!
È impressionante come ha inserito la monoposto alla Rascasse e come ha percorso rapidamente quella chicane. L’espressione di Todt è la ciliegina sulla torta.
Mi viene da piangere nel vedere queste immagini..sei stato e sarai sempre il più grande di tutti ci manchi....Forza Ferrari e speriamo un giorno di poterti rivedere
Back in the day, I thought the F310 was ugly. But over time, I've learnt to appreciate the car. Especially when you consider the cars that emerged from 2010 onwards. Especially the first cars of the turbo era from 2014 onwards. The 310 is also the start of something big. The first 3 of 72 victories for Michael in red.
Verstappen is marvelous. Red Bull is not at same level of Mercedes, McLaren and Ferrari. Looking Checo Perez grand prixs and you can see the difference that Max gives.
Two tenths slower when at middle sector. Five tenths faster when reach finis line. Dang he absolutely nailed it
Gained 0.7 in the final sector!!
Outrageous

1:01 Amazing sound of the V 3.000cc. Schumacher golden period.

Michael with a dump truck, Max with a rocket...that's the difference😮

@@Yoshiman2024 98-2001 the cars looked super sleek, and sounded like a fighter jet!!
The Ferrari and the mclaren look space age compared to today
@@Rooie_piet why wasting time trying to explain the obvious?
The face of Jean Todt is the best of thing
Un fenomeno con quel catorcio! Grazie di tutto Schumi! Sei il più grande! ❤
this PoleLAP und that from 2012 showed that he is and will be the best of all time.
Love Watson's reaction to the pole.

Jean Todt cracks a smile: “He is delirious!”

Lando Norris and Co, Look at this

As Max Yesterday
Old track is much more difficult. Can’t compare that.
Verstappen is marvelous. Red Bull is not at same level of Mercedes, McLaren and Ferrari.
Looking Checo Perez grand prixs and you can see the difference that Max gives.
best for Schumacher... not in F1
and less in Monaco.
Don´t blame on Senna!
With THAT car? Forget it, it should never happened.
Hill did a shit time in the last sector. That’s it
Ok. Cry More
Commentator Literally said Damon amongst others gained time in that sector but ok
