I was at the Detroit Grand Prix in 1982 taking pictures in the pits (incidentally with no press credentials back then) when Keke comes in after a flying lap, hops out of the FW08, pulls a pack of Marlboro reds out of his racing suit pocket, and fires it up!! Then a pit crew member handed him a beer!! 😂😂😂 I'm thinking I absolutely love this guy!! Three decades later, I married my Finnish wife!! ❤❤
I met Keke, in Zell am See, - (he had a Campervan parked at the Lakeside) where he spent most of the Times in between Races during the Formula Super V days. One time he had a Test arranged at the Salzburg Ring and he invited me to go along. While waiting for His Race-Car to arrive, he took me for a couple of Laps in his 240Z around the Race-track!! A very Memorable Experience to say the least.....😃

This is AI generated content. Start from the beginning of the video. you can split the script into paragraphs. It says THREE TIMES that "Keke Rosberg had some regrets". Human would notice that as it makes no sense to repeat the same information three times without even changing the words to make it sound better.

In 1982 Ferrari had the best cars. However, driver Didier Pironi was permanently injured while in a big lead in the championship, and never seriously competed again in F1. Other driver, Gilles Villeneuve was also killed earlier in the season, which knocked out the two biggest contenders. Under those tragic circumstances, and with his consistency, the championship went to Keke.
Keke, doesn't get enough valuation from his career. Williams wasn't that good car after switching from Cosworths (DF - what ever it was in last years) to Honda. Honda engine was good, but the gearbox and especielly the clutch was huge problem. Keke was training with the set-up a lot at Ahvenisto circuit in Finland where I'm from too. Wish he would have continued.. I have a t-shirt from when I was a toddler from monaco gp 1983. Wish I would have had a sponsor during my karting years. Maybe in next life ;) Anyway life long hardcore F1 fanatic here. Thank you from this good video.
The must be AI as the content is all over the place and the pictures don't relate to the era. Any Keke fan knows that Williams tried to trade him off to another team in Mid '82, but he didn't find out for 18 months, That is why he left Williams.
Ferrari troubles in 1982? they just raced with 4 pilots, because 1 died in Zolder, the other destryed his legs in Hockenheim (and never raced again)...just "troubles", exactly, nothing serius... Anyway, Rosberg deserved to win, nothing to say about it. It would not have happed without Ferrari troubles, indeed...
Rosberg had his chance at Williams to win another championship or maybe more ,but bagged the Honda engine. Big mistake. He went to McLaren and got beaten by Prost for the world championship .Rosberg didn’t even win a race that year.Nigel blow a tyre at the last race and lost the championship.Nelson took his place at Williams and won 2 years later the world championship.

To an AI it makes sense, to a human: it does not. And it has also factual inaccuracies.
He was world champ 1982 though. (With one win.) Hardly making history, Mike Hawthorn had already done that in 1958. He also won a lot of other stuff, Atlantic and Can Am.
Driving complete sh*tboxes all through his career. Won the title with a car that had 150-200 hp LESS than Brabham, Ferrari, Renault. Was probably the 4th best car that year (or 5th if you think McLaren was better). But yeah, you're only a worthy champ if you drive a superior car and pick up easy wins.
Yes. With the 4th or 5th fastest car on the grid. Rosberg's Williams had 150-200 hp LESS than the top cars. It was literally 5 seconds slower on Hockenheim than the turbos. Pretty much the same if someone won the drivers' title with an Aston Martin today.
@@DildobertvonPferd So what? Should we strip Schumacher's 1994 and 1995 titles away because Senna died and Prost retired? Did Rosberg force those Ferrari drivers to those accidents? That's F1 for you. Rosberg would have SMOKED Pironi and Villeneuve in 1982 with similarly powered cars, I have ZERO doubts about that. He won that title with the most inferior WDC winning car in F1 history.
@@detonator2112 Rosberg was a well deserved World Champion of 1982. But your comparism is inappropiate, because the faster cars these days are much more reliable.
@@DildobertvonPferd I didn't compare 1982 to 2024. I compared it to the 90's. No... they were more reliable but they still had tons of DNF's. For example Mansell had a tech. DNF in the first four races in 1991. Turbos became more reliable in 1983 already and Rosberg was still fighting against them with basically the same car. "Oh he won only 1 race". If you really understood something about that era, you'd think it's insane that he won Dijon in 1982 with that car and Monaco 1983 and Dallas 1984 (that years' Williams was a complete pig, even P.Head admitted that). Let alone the title in 1982. He smoked Daly completely in 1982 and beat Laffite 15-1 and 14-2 in the following years. Then he made Mansell look like an amateur in 1985 when they were teammates at Williams. I don't know how delusional someone can be (not referring to you) that he wasn't a worthy Champ. Are you only worthy if you cruise to the title with a superior car (like Mansell did in 1992)? Most of the people who comment these videos are kiddies who have seen the Senna movie and then they see the stats. There's so much more that numbers don't always tell you. Like Keke's whole early career with those sh*tboxes that he drove.
If this was created by one of us.. please try harder and I say this with compassion, if it is AI.. then its a clear example of how confusing AI is making life, the worst is yet to come I assume and the pitfalls of laziness in humans and the illusion of passive income. Wake Up!!
The luckiest ever World Champ. Pironi career end, Villeneuve dad, Renault had many failures and were the fastest car, Williams was 4-5th car in order. No matter what, he was a very good driver anyway
Season titles are about consistency and keeping the fastest level up week after week. That year Keke was the most consistent of the fastest and was awarded WC due that. No Keke's luck if faster ones are too fast and crash, it's either their misfortune or lack of skill to stay on track. Like 2005 was not lucky win for Alonso but misfortunate for the fastest Kimi.
Sure. Senna's crash made Schumacher the champion in 1994 and 1995. Pironi had 200 hp more powerful car. Rosberg won the title with an antique Cosworth that was basically the 4th or 5th best car of the grid. Keke would have SMOKED Pironi in similar equipment.
@@detonator2112 dreams are my reality….!!! whatever RIP Didier….and Keke‘s Formula 1 History after this lucky shot….sry we dont have to talk about it…..
@@maxhofer3223 Do you seriously think that you can win F1 World Drivers Championship title with a way inferior, underpowered car with LUCK? Over 16 races? The same way Keke absolutely DEMOLISHED his teammates Daly in 1982 and Laffite 15-1 and 14-2 in the following years and made Mansell look like an amateur in Williams 1985 when they were teammates. Was that "luck" too? You don't seem to know a lot about the sport.
@@maxhofer3223 History is about facts. Rosberg is the 1982 World Champion. And well deserved one too. He won the title with probably the slowest WDC winning car in F1 history. Pironi didn't win a title with that utterly SUPERIOR car, ever... and he crashed himself at Hockenheim and ruined his season. All the rest is just fantasy and speculation.
Nope. Pironi had 200 horsepower more and he himself crashed at Hockenheim. Keke won the title with 4th or 5th fastest car on the grid. Pironi couldn't win it with a superior car. Deal with it.
He won one championship by winning one race because of the way the points were structured. He would not be world champion with today's point system and that's the reason the points system was changed. Like his Son Nico, he was an average F1 driver and when he joined Prost, (A Genuine World Champion), at Mclaren in 1986 the writing was on the wall and that's why he walked away from F1. He simply wasn't good enough.
Keke was a genuine world chapion. Beat Prost easily in1982 even though Prost Renault was much faster Car. Rosberg beat Mansell as well when they were the team mates in 1985. As for the points system, it was same for all. Nobody won more that 2 GPS in 1982.
Keke won because he scored most Championship points. Most consistent driver of the grid. And fastest too because Williams 1982 was nowhere near the fastest Car.
The Renaults were notiouripusly unreliable that year and there were some infighting between the drivers at Ferrari and Renault. John Watson was also in contention but Keke did enough to finish consistently and pick his moments.
I was at the Detroit Grand Prix in 1982 taking pictures in the pits (incidentally with no press credentials back then) when Keke comes in after a flying lap, hops out of the FW08, pulls a pack of Marlboro reds out of his racing suit pocket, and fires it up!!
