@@saintsalieriI was turned facing behind when a car hit me (I was not driving). It injured my neck and shoulders. In chronic pain for a good four years. No pain now but it still gets stiff and my neck makes weird noises
@@wyvern3 I'm well aware it's very far from a truck. Just saying I was always pretty good at reversing but when I got into trucks I became basically a 'professional reverser'. There is lots of technique which you won't appreciate until you do a lot of it. Max is clearly a beginner. He is making beginner mistakes.
We've seen Max Verstappen race caravans in the past and now we've seen him race in reverse. I think he's ready for the ultimate challenge: reverse caravan racing.
It's more difficult than it looks, I once tried it with an old DAF destined for demolition, I ended up side down on the roof after the first attempt at a corner
I just love the combination of Yuki and Max together doing silly things. Yuki is basically the same fearless type as Max was when he started. Funny to think they both are the youngest Red bull drivers in F1, and Checo and Pierre are the 'older' more sensitive 'brothers' at Red bull, lmao! 😂
Yeah, I mean, I was 17 when I started which is now not allowed anymore by the rules. You need to be 18. The first year was quite funny. I was not allowed to drive on a normal road, but of course allowed to race in F1.
I remember as a little kid watching "Achteruitrijden" on TV with commentator André van Duijn. Hilarious! Back in those days everything was possible. Nobody had ever heard of safety. Good times back then. Only for the Dutch: "Me gras! Me gras!"
I am a Lewis fanboy, but Max has my utter respect for doing this so smoothly. It's not easy going fast in reverse - let alone navigating corners. Credit where credit is due - Good one, Max 🔥🔥🔥
Driving backwards was popular on tv in the late 70’s. Most of the cars were DAF cars because they had only two gears; forward and reverse. In the same tv show, they also raced with caravans behind their cars. There definitely was often material on the track.
DAF actually invented the continuously variable transmission, which instead of am automatic transmission being a series of planetary and solar gears, they're really just 2 rubber bands that work in forward and reverse
@@weatroreport The modern version of this transmission - yes it still exists - uses a kind of mesh metal band. While the patent has expired the original company which was a sub division of `van Doorne Automobiel-Fabrieken` (Van Doorne Auto-mobile Factories) is still one of the leading companies in producing the push-pull belt that is the main part for this type of transmission.
bahahaha! this was so awesome! great job boys, and what a fun idea! Yuki is one of my favorite drivers and personalities in F1. I love seeing Max and Yuki do this kinda of stuff🙌❤️🙌
This is brilliant seeing Yuki Tsunoda and Max Verstappen drivers are extremely talented and fast driving cars in reverse at the Dutch grand prix circuit. Red bull thank for excellence video.
I hope they become great friends. Would be fun seeing ‘‘em race together one day as part of Red Bull once yuki gains the experience. They both seem to click very well. More fun content between yuki and max would be 👏👏👏
I noticed that too. Yuki had a plate, it doesn’t work with Red Bull so is it just for show or do AT have something like the paddock. Btw I’m on 4250. The code for this weekend is PDKZAN for 50 points.
Just brilliant 😂 in the 70 and beginning of the 80’s in NL we had a program called “Ter Land Ter Zee en in de Lucht” and their they also had “driving backwards with the DAF and caravan races. They wrecked so much DAF’s the are now hard to find🤣🤣
Fellow old farts may remember Rob Slotemaker's driving school at a section of the old non shortened Zandvoort tracks parking. Student's learned how to control 180 and 360 spins and drifts. I recall an instructor approaching at speed a simulated garage, doing a 180 and stopping backwards exactly in the spot. That was pretty impressive. I believe Slotemaker operated a UK driving school as well.
The sad thing is Rob died after he crashed his Camaro on an oil spill on the track left by another competitor who blew up his engine. All of his anti-skid skills didn't save him in the end. He crashed into a Marshal safety car and carreened into a fence. He broke his neck and died there on the spot.
@@joineralbert2493 That's sad. From the 60's to early 70's, 3 weekends per month, I used to travel from my German hometown to visit my friend Herman, whose family lived near the track, across from the old Loews. Zandvoort is a good plage, good times. Cheers
In 1993 Williams tested this CVT tranmission (Variomatic) in their F1 car. The biggest issue that they had to overcome was to find a belt strong enough to transfer the 850HP. They managed to do that but then it turned out that they would be so extremely fast compared to the rest of the field, that the FIA decided that F1 cars should have 4 to 7 fixed gears. So basically, a CVT works too well.
Infinite variable gearing. My wife just bought a new 2022 honda crv which has a cvt. Its shockingly good. Why don't all new vehicles have this is my question especially for regular passenger vehicles
DAF made a variomatic F3 and a hill climb race car themselves in the early 70's too. I think in this respect the great advantage of the CVT is that the engine doesn't have to do different revs very wll, you can design it and tune it for one optimal rev. Engine breaking is a bit tricky though.
That was enjoyable. But most importantly checking the comments- kudos to RBR social team for actually checking the comments and replying to them, individually. And, the camaraderie between the two sister team drivers is amazing!
They only care about wrecking them 😤 let's have backwards race with redballs vintage promotional cars! The ones with the big can on the back. That would be so entertaining 😈 😈 😈 🤣
Perhaps we should point out this was a part of a legendary Dutch TV programme back in the day. There should have been a voice over telling Max and Yuki to mind the grass next to the track.
My Dad used to have a DAF 55 car, but at the same time also drove a DAF tipper truck for his job!. The cars were great though, very advanced for their time, and the coupe version is a very pretty little car. An unusual feature is that due to the mechanical layout, each rear wheel had its own drive (no rear axle). In slippery conditions, this meant that it behaved a bit like it had a LSD.
you asked for it, so we made it 😉 but what should we ask them to race next? 🏁
Bike Race to the top of Gaisberg

Caravan Races !!! we love and miss them!
It's nice to see Verstappen practicing to win Dutch GP from P20 driving backwards.
new simulator challenge 😅
He would win that anyway 😏😂
Have to give Leclerc a chance
I really think Red Bull should do this anyway, for entertainment value. Start Max from the pit, I've no doubt he'll still win it by 10+ seconds.
KKKKKKKK Leclerc and sainz: We lose in this too?

In 1993 Williams tested this CVT tranmission (Variomatic) in their F1 car. The biggest issue that they had to overcome was to find a belt strong enough to transfer the 850HP. They managed to do that but then it turned out that they would be so extremely fast compared to the rest of the field, that the FIA decided that F1 cars should have 4 to 7 fixed gears. So basically, a CVT works too well.

also did you hear the sound of that car... it was horrid on a whole new level.
DAF made a variomatic F3 and a hill climb race car themselves in the early 70's too. I think in this respect the great advantage of the CVT is that the engine doesn't have to do different revs very wll, you can design it and tune it for one optimal rev. Engine breaking is a bit tricky though.
If Williams did, Imagine a Group B Quattro with CVT...😇 Would have been a Nightmare durch Technik...;)
