We won’t realise how great Lewis really is until the nostalgia kicks in when he leaves F1.
Nahh
Yeah, Congratulations to him for doing his job I guess.
I can hardly wait his retire .... i m bored of him,lets make great another driver,lets have some drama,intense battle on the track
Real F1 fans know he already one of the greats
Some of us realize it now, it's only those currently in denial who'll realize it later.
Bruh, even in 2007 he was thanking the team like a true champ
That's what I was thinking. He's been the same from the start.
Even then he knew; not just believed, but knew.
Yeah kinda awesome how he thanks the team always
but nowadays he never thanks mclaren, really disrespectful for a team that looked after him for his whole childhood.
@@martinofficial1586 Sorry, that assertion is simply incorrect.
Singapore 2018 wasn't just the best pole he ever achieved, but also was one of the best races he ever did. It was something so magic to watch. This race and Turkey 2020 was so so magic to see.
Complete cringe, people really do be forgetting Senna existed
Barack Hussein Osama what does senna have to do with hamiltons best poles?😂
@@barackhusseinosama9189 senna ? the guy who purposely crashed in to people to win championships ?? that guy ?
@@deezelkane no the guy who chased after the best car on the grid and begged sir frank williams for a seat year after year.
@@jenkszy3684 😂
Canada 2010 was the best. First time RedBull was beaten that year, and watching #44 push that car along the straight... epic
@Alan ALI 12 I'm going to have to check that one out.
@Alan ALI 12 that was one of the craziest highlights that season I remember. Still underated. And he smacked Webber around many times w the lesser car
I'm an LH44 fan to the grave, but as I recall both Red Bulls qualified on the primes (as the harder compound was known back then) while Hamilton qualified on the options (the softer compound). A qualy-over-race outlook from McLaren. It ended up working out in the race and I'm glad it did, but I think impartiality, something the anti-Hamilton crowd will all too often refuse to adopt, has to take precedent. In that race Hamilton indeed got pole by virtue of being on the softer compound, but managed to translate that into a win by pure talent in the slower car.
I also, however, remember Hamilton running out of fuel and being unable to return to the pits under the car's own power for that qualifying lap. Were rules changed immediately following that incident? Quite possibly. Because a repeat of that incident in Spain 2012 cost Hamilton pole, ultimately giving it to Maldonado.
@@Bahamuttiamat *Korea* is definitely his most underrated pole position. I'd go as far as to say it's his 2nd best pole ever. Nothing will ever beat the *shock* that was Singapore 2018 tho.
@Alan ALI 12 gotta agree on that one. Before Korea, Vettel got pole 90% of the time
You know you've done something right in F1 when your 'pole laps' video is 15 min long
And just think, this is only 10% of his poles to date
When your 10% of poles take up 15 mins
Jesus loves you!
Yeah amazing driver
always noticed how he brings up the many men & women behind his success when he achieves something great. the fact that that kind of response comes naturally to him, rather than it seeming forced for the cameras, says a lot about his sportsmanship and humility even while being one of the GOATS. not always been a fan but this man was clearly special from the start and deserves this 100%.
And ppl hate him for that. I really dont understand couch warriors
@@LittleLightIsaOnce People hate greatness!
@@LittleLightIsaOnce people are just jealous.
But that isn't right, is it? He does that, but as soon as he has failed to be first, he IS first to blame the car. He is for sure the goat, hard to deny that, but to me it doesn't not look genuine when he always mentions the factory workers. Same when you come in to work and greet everyone, its not mandatory but its common sense.
@@ugisrugelis2070 Lewis is a genius. When Lewis thanks the people back at the factory on the Sunday and those same factory workers go to work on the Monday, they'll give that extra 5% as a result, no doubt about it. This ensures that Lewis's car stays as quick as it can be. Obviously Lewis is the most gifted talent of this generation which also helps. His tyre management, his race craft, his lack of mistakes; I can't see Max beating Lewis in a championship anytime soon ever though Max is in the fastest ca this yearr.
“BuT iTS JuSt tHE Car” - seriously don’t understand how people can still not realise his phenomenal talent!
his race craft is insane, pace too
Yeah the best driver gets the best car lol
It's not hard to understand, if someone else could do what Lewis does they'd have his seat
It's both. If Lewis had not signed for Mercedes in 2013 nobody would be calling him a legend. If Lewis was a bad driver we would all be talking about the 7 time World Champion Nico Rosberg.
@ALEXANDRU BLIDAR Bottas never catching up to Lewis in the same Mercedes
I mean the guy has talent, but you can't deny that car helps him too.
I'd like to see what he could produce in today's McLaren. He's always had the luxury of driving a winning car.
That moment when you realise this list is only a tenth of the total poles he has had...
Max only has 4 poles, for him this video isn’t half as long!!😂😂😂
It takes more than 2 hours to watch every Hamilton pole.
Exactly my g
Exactly
Max don't know
It's like jake Paul calling McGregor
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@peanutnutter1 why is there a video g
Jesus loves you!
Not shocked in the slightest that Singapore 2018 is first. Absolutely beautiful lap.
I think it's his best!
It's not the same without the sling chicane
He had to out drive that car to get pole, since the mercedes isn't suitable to such circuits
That lap is proof that it isnt "just the car"
This is the modern day equivalent of sennas magical Monaco lap, driving in an almost unconscious state, nothing but instinct taking over
Not a Hamilton fan but what he did today is simply unbelievable. We are witnessing history people.
I’m a huge fan every performance is brilliant
Agreed, as much as we can argue about him having the only car able to go on pole for a handful of seasons it’s still an impressive statistic
You are a fan,but you don't know yet
@@nunotavares7740 you don’t have to be a fan to still respect someone
Dude, everything your witnessing is history...
That's how it works...
People are just tired of seeing him win but he really is just the best.
Probably the best of this era. I'm not sure because Verstappen is really great too.
It is Hard to compare it with Schumacher. It is your opinion that Hamilton is the goat and mine is Schumacher. But we can be happy that we see two of the best in such a short time
People wouldn't realize how much they will miss Lewis once he leaves the sport
Yes exactly the reason Vettel was hated in his early years and now Lewis. He's a great human being if you are not irritated by his routine wins.
@@vasudevdehariya1269 He’s very hypocritical about world issues
All Fans of Lewis remember the chills they felt during that Singapore lap.
i dont consider myself a fan of hamilton even though he is objectively the GOAT, but that singapore lap... man that lap is just incredible, my favorite quali lap ever in the history of the sport
@@registrado54 Watch Vettel's 2010 Hungary Pole Lap...
So no one is gonna talk about how Grosjean almost got a pole position
that also caught me by surprise man
Grosjean was very quick in qualifying with that Lotus especially 2012-2013. Though his race pace was inconsistent compared to then teammate Raikkonen who would ninja his way to podiums and constant points finishes. In a way, it somehow draws parallels to Giovinazzi-Raikkonen at Alfa where GIO would match or beat him in quali but RAI would have better race results.
grosjean was mighty quick in his lotus days
@@usedtoexistonce sad to see him struggle in tha Haas
Yeah! How many times it's happen ? Only 1 time
Vettel didn't understand why Lewis so quick when he took the pole for Abu Dhabi 2009 and thought that he must have been fueled light. We later on found out that Lewis was the heaviest of the cars in that shootout
Exactly! 🎤drop to salty Sebastian!🤣
@@blackgirlsrock264 He was even younger than Lewis and the Mclaren was nowhere near that RB5 of Red Bull, I think it's normal to have that reaction
@@juanjosepinzon1683 completely normal
@@juanjosepinzon1683 The McLaren of the 2nd half of 2009 was a front runner car, on some tracks it even got a FRONT-ROW lock-out in qualifying. You likely didn't watch that season in full did you?
@@grimm6jacklies.
That Singapore lap was a pure thing of beauty man 😩
I was there at the end of turn 1 for Singapore 2018, the whole stand went utterly silent, in shock - there were a lot of Aussie fans cheering for Ricciardo, their jaws dropped. It was just unbelievable, and I'm lucky to have witnessed that in real time. Everyone knew something special had happened
One of them is definitely his Singapore 2018 lap. That was my favourite pole position of Hamilton
well aren't you right XD
Brundle said that earlier
Oh, he's always thanked the team and put them first in terms of recognition. Great leadership mentality! Sir HAM#44
Learn about Sir Lewis through some British coworkers about 4 years ago, and being a fan since then. This guy definitely knows how to drive, and he deserve all the accolades within the sports. Thanks Sir Lewis!
agreed. We can argue all day about Mercedes cars or redbull, but Lewis just knows how to drive. You cant take that away from him. He was born to be an F1 driver.
HOW this could get any thumbs down utterly shows a lack of appreciation of pure GENIUS.
Those are bots. No litteraly those are bought dislikes
fast, consistent, fit, champion-mentality..
he deserved it all.
Lewis Hamilton is truly one of the greatest. I'm lucky to see the days of Schumacher till Hamilton.
I've watched since the late 70s, Senna is my favorite, but Hamilton is clearly the best that I have seen..
@@byanymeansnecessary9329 crazy 😧
It’s hard to believe that you sometimes forget how fast Hamilton is. You see the numbers but when you see it back and have time to think, it really does take you back.
Hate him or love him, but no deny that he is one of the all time greatest
💯.Pole 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
But it's boring all the races... Only he wins its so boring
@@drake_office1220 That's not his fault...
@@drake_office1220 you realize every all time great had a competition-destroying car? In Senna's era both Mclaren used to finish minutes ahead of even the third one classified. Really funny races huh? But yo Senna and Schumi were Gs lol
Then don't go on tiktok...
@@eliamanghera1715 You seem to forget that Senna got poles with Lotus also, which was 2nd at best car at that time and practically 3rd or 4th. Which was not the case with neither Hamilton nor Schumacher throughtout their carrers. Hamilton was practically nowhere during 2009-2013 era, Schumacher got literally destroyed by Hakkinen in pretty much equal machinery.
Don’t even need any narration for the Singapore pole lap, just put the onboard, that’s enough, it speaks for itself.....just a thing of beauty that lap
man and machine in perfect harmony
I was at Copse Corner for the Silverstone weekend in 2007 and they're not kidding when they talk about the crowd reaction. My old man had a radio tuned in to the Public Address System and he cheered a fraction of a second before everyone else. While the race was an experience, the fact that the lead only changed during refueling stops and strategy, rather than on track made it an anticlimax, but all in all it wasn't a bad first race for me to attend (the ticket I received was my 18th birthday present)
And now your old my guy :(
@@dcfc2379 nonsense, beyond 21, age is just a number. You're only as old as you feel ;)
Thank you lewis Hamilton for all the great memories his given Formula One..

@@toegobbler6373 go back in your cave and DON,T come OUT 🤬
Who's here after he took pole at the Hungaroring in 2023?
Ah Korea 2011 should be on there. Only non Red Bull pole of 2011. Watch the onboard, pure talent.
Yes yes u knoww
wait so Lewis was the ONLY driver who snatched a pole from the Rbs that entire season??
@@wildcatkhaya5675 yup
I’m almost certain the performance gap between Vettel’s RB in 2011 and Hamilton’s Mclaren at S.Korea was bigger than the gap between Vettel’s Ferrari and the merc in Singapore 2018. The fact that Vettel blew Lewis away on the Sunday would suggest that to be the case.
I rate that Korea pole as one of his greatest.
Watching Lewis as 9 yr old in 2007 and now as 22 yr old in 2021 . I’m still in awe of what he’s able to do every week
James Allen’s call for Lewis’ pole at Silverstone 2007 is amazing, gives me chills
Same I only watch this video because of him
@@Mohagnito94 facts
that singapore 2018 pole lap was a thing of beauty
He is writing a master piece and its not done yet
The one I would place above all others is the one at _Yeongam_ in 2011. Delivered during his absolute worst year in motorsport and against an _RB7_ that was nigh on untouchable in qualifying trim.
LH44 The GOAT. Undeniable!
Was the RB7 like W05 in Quali in terms of gap or closer?? They both took 18 poles but who had a bigger gap??
69th pole on a wet track, still my favorite.
Only the Mercedes car
@@drake_office1220 Hmm, funny how Bottas was in the same car but qualified in 6th and on a track where the Red Bull always struggled due to their engine yet qualified 2nd and 3rd.
My mind went to a completely different direction after reading your comment😅😅
@@kelvinquartey2958 you are not alone 😂😂😂
8:40 Ok, thats something you dont hear to often
but its its the merc :)
I know you are talking about Grosjean, but he was a quick driver and shown his potential that year, unfortunately when he went to Haas things did not work well for him and the team as well. It was a tragedy with Magnussen.
Grosjean was as quick as kimi in that lotus but haas gave him a back marker but still he was able to give them points
@@EliasX-lh8tn ??? if ur talkin bout merc, wrong year

That lap in Melbourne was insane it should be higher imo. Nothing is touching that Singapore lap tho sheesh💨😳
I have seen many drivers over the years as an F1 fan but there's something special and unique about Lewis Hamilton. Respect greatness!
Been a pleasure watching this bloke in F1 since 2007
2020 Styrian, SPA, + Monza are modern classics too
That Singapore was insane! Faster than the simulations thought was possible.
Master of Pole
Sir Lewis 💯 Respect
Sounds kinda weird no?
@@jayismail705 Well, better than Polemaster
Does Hamilton really deserve the level of attention and adoration he's been receiving this season? ABSOLUTELY.
Another memorable Pole (which was taken away later) was at 2012 Spanish GP when Lewis was ahead by half a second.
his steering wheel control is amazing. see any of his onboard laps and it hardly wobbles and it reflects in perfect results.
there is only one record that hamilton can't break, its mazespin's record of total spun out in a year
I knew this man is special since I've seen his first race for McLaren in 2007. He almost became World Champion in the first season! Just think about it. There is not a single driver that could have done the same! This man is the best F1 driver ever.
That too having the world champion Alonso as teammate.
@@nikmat exactly, that was just phenomenal from him 💯🙏

It’s important to have the context behind each one too, because a lot of these new fans would simply say ‘obVioUSly PolE in MerCedEs’
surprised there's no mention of Korea 2011, the only non Red Bull pole in that season, where he got pole by more than 2 tenths ahead of Vettel

His pole today would've been in this list to.
3:05 "they needn't have been"
what a beautiful language
Lewis is undoubtedly the Greatest F1 driver of all time, the stats don’t lie and neither does his talent, they all say it’s just the car but in 2008 when he won his first championship, Ferrari actually had the faster car, same in 2017 and 2018, even in 2019 he didn’t always have the best car but I mean obviously there is no doubt most of the time that season it was the best, it’s sad how much hate and racism he gets, disgusting honestly, people will realize how truly great he is when he retires and they will have to live with the fact they didn’t see his greatness when he was driving, that’s why I always appreciate the drivers while they are racing, I am Lewis #1 fan but I always appreciate Max’s talent and greatness, he will no doubt go down as one of the greats, anyways that’s all I gotta say
Singapore 2018. The greatest there ever was.
That Singapore 2018 Qualifying lap is by far his best lap ever. Absolutely graceful and beautiful to watch. A masterpiece in my eyes.
That Singapore lap was just crazy stuff 🤯
Lewis Hamilton is an Hero. So glad that I witness him growing from 2007 till the end of his character. Has soon I saw Lewis first race he add the wow factor and I been supporting him sense than.
Move over, I think Hungary 2023 moves into his Top 3
They prepared it and are finally happy to release all vids related to Lewis
I'm a Ferrari fan and I'll neve forget that Singapore pole , the time had my jaw to the floor
Proud that the best qualifying of his career happens in my home country. That lap was just purely power and skill.
I remember exactly where I was on everyone of those magnificent poles by Lewis! Greatest of all time
That Singapore 2018 pole lap from Hamilton was a cyborg performance.
Hamilton always has tons of iconic pole laps.
That lap at Singapore was the greatest I’ve ever seen. Just unbelievable and showing why he is the best F1 driver ever.
Can you imagine how talented you have to be to Join Formula 1, having as a team mate a double world champion at only 26 years old and still bringing the fight to him? I don't understand why people insist on questioning his talent.
What this man does and how he does it, through all those years is simply overwhelming. Thank you Lewis!
Lewis Hamilton should be in the Mt. Rushmore of sports greats with Ali, MJ, Brady, and Tiger
Haven't watched the whole video but Singapore 2018 has to be up there (just watched it knew it would be number 1)

His lap at Singapore a couple of years ago was one of the best I've ever seen. Without doubt the best of all time when it comes to delivering over one lap.
His pole at Suzuka for me was the best ever.
That singapore lap is the definition of driver and machinery becoming one single unit, harmonizing perfectly in every single aspect. Something you only witness every once in a while from a driver. And I genuinly think no other driver ever came close to this level as many times as Lewis Hamilton. This is exactly why you are able to recognize a great driver even when he is sitting in the fastest car. Appreciate him for as long as he is still around, I'm entirely certain even many of his haters will miss him when he has retired. They won't admit it, but it will be proven when they eventually just start hating someone else. At the end of the day it's what they do.
Styrian 2020, Monza 2017 are also other crazy ones.
Singapore 2018 had me stunned.
Do " top 10 driver's who almost lost the championship!" Plz!
F for Felipe
:(
Thankfully the call to go onto the inters in Brazil 2008 was the correct one
Man it is crazy how small the cars were in his McLaren era.
Same size until 2010 when refueling was banned and then until 2017.
Once Lewis leaves it will be so hard to keep watching f1 I literally grew up watching him
👍
Nico was such a weird guy. He intentionally went off truck and brought out the yellow flags to prevent Hamilton from going quickest. I still remember this day.
A Schumacher trick.
At least 1 pole for every year he has been in F1. Thank you Korea 2011!
Singapore 2018. Phenomenal. His Sunday wasn't too bad either.
