@@muhammetkaya1257 because at 100kmh theyu can do the whole lap with their eyes closed. just look at raining races. they cant see corners but thet adapt from side signs and how well they know the track even if they cnt see
@@MercedesBenz I hear that!!! Nico is one of my favourite race-car drivers oat!!! Maybe you(Mercedes - Benz) could ask if he would race again but if not I understand, the family etc. Hope all is well with you, Nico and your beautiful family!!! Cheers!!! 🇨🇦♥️Nico!!!
To be honest, these drivers can remember the tracks so well that they can literally drive blind... But of course, there are other cars and traffic to look after for..
Crazy! It's seriously awesome. Compare this with the Online driving, and, no, not even possible. I am stunned by the talent of Hamilton and the others!
Been watching a lot of racing videos lately as well as sitting positions and pedal & steering placement for sim racing so having this video pop up in my recommendations after 7 years isn't all that odd as it seems to be for a lot of others in the comments.
You would be surprised. The ultra light foams will not provide the support the driver needs. They are just too soft. It requires a dense foam that supplies some resistance. Some of the more dense foam pads I have installed weigh well over 10 pounds for a piece that is roughly 1.5 ft by 1 ft.
The more I delve into what it takes to be an F1 driver the more I realise just how talented these guys/girls are (yes I included Lance Stroll). Imagine driving a car that can go 300 KPH, while laying down, having insanely limited vision and not to mention all the other cars driving around you. Oh yeah and every second you drive is filmed and recorded by computers so it can be scrutinized by your team, the ever growing media AND us second guessing, mostly no nothing, fans.
I hope one day the seat will be a bit more upright and that the drivers could actually see side way a bit more for safety reason both way would be difficult to achieve
If the driver is already stressed out in seating , cant see clearly on the track , has to lean up his head most of the times then definately you will lose the race .
This pop up in my recommendation... What happened? Is tables in Mercedes career over? Did you guys change it to prevent Toto killstreak towards the table?
They can barely see yet they an hit apex perfectly at 100+ mph consistently, wow that's impressive.
Yeah dude. This is what I am going crazy. They are having uber perfect laps over and over again without even seeing the road comfortably. Wtf.

Nico is a natural about explaining everything f1 in front of the camera. No wonder he's enjoying RUclips so much rn
RUclips: 8 yrs ago. "HOLD" 5 Yrs ago. "HOLD." 3 Yrs ago. "HOLD" 2020: "NOW, Recommend this video to the masses!"
Mosler 🤣🤣🤣

The first time I saw F1 in action, I thought the driver were sitting cross-legged.
lmao
loool
Imagining that made me chuckle
I always wanted to be f1 driver
until now 🥵
😂
We all want , Maybe in the next life 🥳🌧️
@@yaqub3567 I hope I come back as a 11 time world champion 😂😂
@@trevorE11EVEN 😂💔
Is he serious? He can barely see where he is going?
This is a lot of work, coupled with talent! 🥰
@@MercedesBenz Talk about being active! Responding to a comment on a video thats 6 years old! Impressive
f1 drivers know the tracks so well, they almost could drive them blindfolded
@@MercedesBenz I hear that!!! Nico is one of my favourite race-car drivers oat!!! Maybe you(Mercedes - Benz) could ask if he would race again but if not I understand, the family etc. Hope all is well with you, Nico and your beautiful family!!! Cheers!!! 🇨🇦♥️Nico!!!

Finally! I always wonder how the driver sits. Glad to know it
Basically it's super uncomfortable.
To think they have to sit like that for hours.
Congrats mercedes, now this video is on everybody's recommendation
"Foam Is Heavy"
Okay, im not wearing any undergarments, to reduce weights
These drivers are hell of a skilled people, make it look like easy
Crazy! It's seriously awesome. Compare this with the Online driving, and, no, not even possible. I am stunned by the talent of Hamilton and the others!
I find it difficult to drive in daily traffic in my comfortable car and look at him, he is chilling doing 250+km/h in such a tiny space.
Been watching a lot of racing videos lately as well as sitting positions and pedal & steering placement for sim racing so having this video pop up in my recommendations after 7 years isn't all that odd as it seems to be for a lot of others in the comments.
"...because foam is very heavy" ok bro👌
You don’t sound convinced
You would be surprised. The ultra light foams will not provide the support the driver needs. They are just too soft. It requires a dense foam that supplies some resistance. Some of the more dense foam pads I have installed weigh well over 10 pounds for a piece that is roughly 1.5 ft by 1 ft.
You know the car weights nothing when Nico says the foam is really heavy lol
This is one of the things why I love the Mercedes-Benz
The more I delve into what it takes to be an F1 driver the more I realise just how talented these guys/girls are (yes I included Lance Stroll).
Imagine driving a car that can go 300 KPH, while laying down, having insanely limited vision and not to mention all the other cars driving around you.

Ok I see where Nico got the inspiration of being an vlogger now
So this man is going in a corner with more than 100 with a steering wheel with lights shoved up his face? Respect
when you finally learn the truth that they are sleeping while driving at over 300kms
I'm surprised there's only 12 comments on a video with 66k views
MB had blocked comments
66k?
POV: You scrolled up to see if it's true
Watching Kimi fall asleep in his car last year makes this video so much better for some reason.
Those look comfortable. I’ll have to get one.
Thank God for tin top racing.
While I admire the work that goes into driving these delicate machines I much prefer sitting upright when driving.
you know every ounce counts when he says "because foam is very heavy"
This video is about to blow up
Let me guess....
You didn't search for this. RUclips recommend it to you 7 years after upload
A love from Benz
I guess this makes rally driving look a lot more confortable. 🤣
I miss this videos
Such a nice guy, cool explanation
Foam is heavy?
It is in an F1 car
In F1, every gram matters
It’s Formula 1. Every gram counts.
Harish Gireesan in terms of F1, it is heavy: the team want to make it as light as possible
Harish Gireesan for an f1 car
8 years later, it still is a significant fact.
Weight management is such and issue in F1 cas that FOAM is referred to as "heavy"
This is the first time I liked Nico Rosberg talking :-D
Is his seats career over????
He doesnt want to get back
nico retire after winning 2016 wdc
Minh Pham the comment I was looking for! Thank you for not disappointing me.
@@racetoria3069 i dont think you got the joke
@@kevicius i am unsure about if ypu got the joke
8 years later in reccomended see ya again for few years when yt reccomend it again
Better late than never!
Waiting for 7 years for recommendation
Hey Nico. Why are new tyres so shiny?
Why is this not more viewed?
I dont know xD
The position is weirdo
Today is this videos 8th birthday. Happy birthday video that got recommended by youtube to me today. How lucky for me lol 😂😂
8 years later RUclips is recommending it to me
This is a kind of explanation we usually get from the teacher 😂
2 am me trying to feel how f1 car seat feels like in my bed
Imagine having a spider inside the leg room 👀
👀
This guy is good talker. He should start RUclips channel
2013 Nico and 2016 Nico is a diffrent beast
Why isn't the clothing padded with air chambers or a vacuum seat?
Fortunately F1 goes round and round and round, so once you know the track there’s a lot less to look for. It’s not quite like rally for e.g
:)
Watching nico after his retirement and introduced by his vlogs
How do you see were you go?
I think I'd DIE of anxiety driving like that... wow! Had no idea they weren't able to see that much...
Did i just hear him say....foam is heavy? Lol! Yep, i replayed it!
High density foam is heavy. The foam you see in your everyday life cannot support them
RUclips
2012: no
2013: noooo
2014:nope
2015: still waiting
2016: no
2017: not yet
2018: bwoah
2019: no
2019: no
2020: fckn finally
And when you using your wheel in 4 directions it must be even harder:)))))
banned for next year... and well lets face it, they won't be getting many races in this year it looks like.
Well i just selected by youtube for watching this 8 years ago video so be thankfull merc, send me your c class
What!! Mercedes still gives hearts to comments even to this day!!??
weight ratio is not considered by normal people......but in racing, cargo, aerospace, etc.........even .0000001 kgs can also make huge difference 🙌
Watching in JuLy 2020 and i must say, Nico looks exactly like Lando Norris
This shows how good is the Black Arrows looking in 2020...
I hope one day the seat will be a bit more upright and that the drivers could actually see side way a bit more for safety reason both way would be difficult to achieve
Did he mention where the throttle and brakes are?
why is this in my recommended 12 years later?
Upspeak is real in this video?
First time in my life I hear that
..foam is heavy!
O M GGGG
Good job!!!
"Is your tyres career over?"
BoNo PlEaSe My TyReS aRe GoNe
Hey Admin,
How are you?
Love that you reply even to comments in a 8 year old Video.. 😅
Imagine your legs falling asleep during a race
Nobody knows this, but theres tens of times more engineering in F1 cars than in a rocket.
Now you know.
welcome on another episode of: "why in my reccomandation"
Foam is heavy??
still can’t believe he was retired
Wow nico in mecadis thats a long time ago
Love from Mercedes Benz
Why recommend this in 2020 😂😂 I just saw nico around a Mercedes logo and was infuriated until i saw the date. Oh well!
"Foam is very heavy"
good documentation ……..
If the driver is already stressed out in seating , cant see clearly on the track , has to lean up his head most of the times then definately you will lose the race .
what if you feel itchy in your feet?
Could get a little tight with my beer belly ....
Based on this and other reports from "regular" people driving F1 cars I still wonder: how the f do they drive those things?
I LOVE YOU MERCEDES BENZ
Back when the halo wasn't there to further decrease visibility
God, I can't imagine if an F1 driver's thighs, calves or even the foot feel itchy
This is the guy in the Titanic!
That seat and car rocking you side by side ... I'll be asleep in mins
Foam is very heavy! Only a F1 pilot can say that!
Foam is heavy????
It is. It's way heavier than carbon fibre, and they need to make the car as light as possible.
How they don't feel sleepy lying down like that is beyond me.
they are just driving a car in sleeping position in over 200mph
Very comfortable.
Driving f1 is no joke
To sit passenger in that car for one lap Must be amazing..
If foam is heavy, what is not heavy?
Petronas ❤️❤️🔥🇲🇾
Nico, you should be a blogger. Oh wait.
This pop up in my recommendation... What happened?
Is tables in Mercedes career over?
Did you guys change it to prevent Toto killstreak towards the table?
It looks like steering bwoah wheel gen1
