When Juan Pablo Montoya took 5 Poles in a Row Without Winning a Race

- In 2002 Juan Pablo Montoya took five poles in a row with his Williams FW24 without winning a single race. Back to this story.
This year, it's Charles Leclerc that took 4 poles in a row with no luck on race day. Will he make it five in Canada ?
And now we have Leclerc to do that
Accurate comparisson...
Still faster than most drivers in the grid, as so was Montoya back then.
@@TomBlu16 over one sure lap but seriously lacking race pace. Horrendous tire management
@@klarkqent Lacking tire maangement? Yeah that's true. Lacking race pace? Disagree completely.
@@klarkqentyou are talking about ferrari, not leclerc. Learn the difference. He owned ericsson, vettel and carlos in race pace
Poor Juan. 3 retirements in a row and two of them were engine failures.
A lot of people say that the Williams was at that time the best, they forget how good was the Ferrari, the Williams BMW had lack of reliability and sometimes in my opinion it’s aerodynamics wasn’t the best, the bmw engine was very powerful but reliability was terrible, what the engine won in the straights easily lost it in the curve sections, I think JPM would have been champion if it hadn’t been for that 🏎️
@@gilesdar20 That's a bit rich. You could say that for 2001, where the BMW was an absolute cannon ball and a league ahead of Ferrari and even more of Mercedes, but it blew up as hard as it performed. In 2002 the Ferrari closed in on peak power, but was wayyyy more efficient and reliable. BMW still had the measure in pure brunt, and improved reliability a very good step. Chassis wise 2001 was scruffy, 2002 was better but the Ferrari was better on its tyres and in corners. No surprise Schumacher romped home to 2 easy championships.
Reliability and tires Pirelli made tires for a quick one lap but not to fight against Michelline. It was a matter of so many other factors that Montoya unfortunately had to deal with, Montoya could be the best driver by those days, but his car was not good enough. It is my humble opinion.
BMW engine lore
@@germanpina8794 worse is on when he moved to McLaren in 2005, everything went wrong for him while Kimi was trailing Alonso for the Championship. Atleast Montoya's replacement for 2007 was somegood young driver, someone by the name of Lewis Hamilton.
Oh yeah, i forgot McLaren was title contender despite with all of the spygate shenanigans. What would've it been if Montoya willing to be patient and stick with McLaren for 2007 knowing that Kimi was moved to Ferrari.
JPM is one of my all-time favorites. He deserved to win... 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇿🇨🇿🇨🇿
JPM was absolutely fearless... As Nelson Piquet was...🇨🇴🇧🇷🇨🇿
my absolute hero of F1 , this guy made my weekend an emotional rollercoaster. fortunately enough i even met him and his son last year in Spa , took me over 10years to meet me hero but so happy i did !
World Champion material, no doubt about it, super fast
The Williams-BMW partnership was wasted potential. They should have won at least one championship, but at best they had just a few race wins before falling out.
Similarly, Montoya should have had more race wins, possibly even a championship.
2003 was the lost one
These are my early years watching F1 as a kid and I loved watching this guy. All I could recall is he led a lot but most of the time retired mid race, very upset
Montoya could have won in Malaysia without that ridiculous penalty by a incident with Schumacher.. Montoya had fast car for Qualys but that engine was a Firework frencuently and also the FW24 was inferior than the brillant Ferrari f2002.
That BMW V10 was insane.
I remember this like it was yesterday. Watching F1 on the Speed Channel (USA). Gutted he never won in 2002.
Brilliant content as always!
Thanks sir
en vrai Montoya quel gachit il aurait pu tout dominer, imaginez le dans la RB entre 2009&13…
Montoya is like Leclerc. Got poles but could not win many races
Suffered a lot from bad luck, same with Leclerc
@@TomBlu16 yea but montoya way faster
@@No-de6wt Nah i wouldn't say so. They share similar skillsets.
Leclerc made similar in 2022, with 4 consecutive poles and 0 wins
Everyone knows that, I just said Leclerc got something similar to Montoya
but montoya had 3 engine problem and one worst pit stop
Great compilation!!
Poor Juan. He Juan 5 poles in a row but Juan no Juan of them on race day.
How the hell he didn't win a WDC is unreal. No one could match his pure speed
7 poles in a season and no win
Michelin tires used to collapse after ten-fifteen laps. This beside chronical BMW engine issues in terms of reliability and the bad aero Williams cars had.
Because of him I started watching F1.
The quickest driver on one lap in F1 history in my opinion.
Wasn’t so quick when he had a better teammate
Trulli was I think.
Ayrton Senna ???
@@zolivarga9873no but pound for pound he's way up there
he pushing the engine too much as Kimi did, look what happen to McLaren in 2005 season
great Times f1 times
Such an underrated driver. He deserved at least one world championship, but unluckily for him, he found the greatest driver of all times right on his path
Lost my nerves wathing that season and cheering for Montoya and his Williams. And the next year for Raikkonen and McLaren.
Kubica & Montoya biggest what if...
Montoya ended up winning the Indy 500 and raced in multiple other series after doing quite well but man, if BMW engines had been more reliable in early 2000s, maybe Ferrari wouldn't have had it so easy
A bit like Piquet in 1984...
juan.
VER vs LEC
BMW was qualifying monster car!
Stats don't tell the whole story. One of the best drivers of all time.
my goat
Lad casually takes half a second to prime Schumi
ferrari in 2019 and 2022 be like ahahha
Will Leclerc be modern era Montoya?
Modern era Raikkonen I reckon
Should have been champion and everyone in f1 knows it.
Maybe if he was more consistent in race days and didn’t quit so quickly he would have been a champion. There’s no “should”have been for him.
Well in his defense: it's hard to fight five Poles in a row!
MONTOYA BMW POWER
The days before F1 became a cheesy Americanised soap opera.
If you ignore all the stuff around the racing it’s the same.
No it's not the same at all.
Completely different formats and regulations.@@KayJblue
@@ciaronsmith4995 I’d say things like sprints have been terrible alterations.
But when I rewatch races from 12’, or 08’ or 97’ it still feels like the F1 we see today.
Maybe I’m just holding on to things that aren’t there.
Ok well you're not really watching F1 properly if you think that. Watch the 2012 Brazilian GP. 97, 98, 99 (best season ever), 2000, 2003, 2007, 2012 are legendary seasons. 2023 is a boring, predictable rules environment. @@KayJblue
@@ciaronsmith4995
1. I do agree that 99 is the best season. It’s my go to when I want to watch some proper f1.
2. Yes 2023 is boring and predictable, but so was 1992, 2002, 2004, 2015, etc.
I just feel like these periods of dominance although more common and extreme now, have always happened at points in the past.
Good driver. Bad car and team.
Idk about the answers of this comment, but i never liked Montoya.
In the time when he was teammate of Kimi Raikkonen in McLaren, Montoya really fucked up him. Kimi could have won another championship with McLaren if Montoya didnt focus to ruin his championship.
What track was that at the end?
Magny cours
France
@@john.doe_0007 the entire country of france
@@ploppyjr2373The entire area of Magny-Cours?
@@JAtoA lmao
0:35 "The V10 looks on the verge of total failure."
Eventually it did. Which is why we have these lame V6 crap.
leclerc, montoya, trulli etc. all overrated af because theyre fast in qualy. Leclerc will also never be a world champion and never come close to it no matter how good his car is. It doesnt matter what you do on saturdays, it matters what you do on sundays
0:47 Today they would cancel the lap because of track limits 🤣🥲
