The funny cars you mentioned are called Haflinger. They were originally built in Austria for our military and are among the best wheeled offroad vehicles ever built. But for military use they had an awful payload so they were replaced by another great offroad vehicle called Pinzgauer. Both of them are well loved in Austria and have a huge fanbase. And I can tell you they are so much fun to drive. So they are still in use within the alpine regions. I love to see how F1 used these legendary cars for the drivers parade!
Saw you on TV during the pre race show. They were interviewing Charles and you came walking right up next to them. I've looked out for you before, this is the first time I've caught you on TV.
There are lots of Dutch fans who go there to camp in their tents and caravans. It is very affordable, and it is in the holiday season so they can stay there for a week or two. Beautiful area. Plus some of the fans like that camping atmosphere with loud music and lots of beer. This started before the Dutch GP returned, and remained because tickets for the Dutch GP are difficult to obtain, and expensive. So you can find entirely orange grandstands. And Max is very successful there, so often there is something to celebrate.
It was an enjoyable weekend to watch on TV (even though, I usually don't like the sprint format). Lots of exciting stuff on track on each of the three days. It's nice that things have normalized post-COVID. I remember only a couple of years ago in your videos how long you were away from home and family. It must be great to be able to get home and to have family travel with you at times during the season. Really like the videos.
Dude your F1 content on RUclips is absolutely unrivalled, i am loving it! Official F1 and sky RUclips content is just boring as hell, they only exist because there is no other real F1 content on RUclips as they got the license, normal RUclipsrs can't even say F1 without getting flagged lol.. and here is you knocking out quality F1 content way beyond what we could hope for.. Bravo sir.. bravo In the very near future the algorithm will deliver you to all the F1 fans and you will explode on RUclips and that will be a good day!
Such a beautiful track. We loved it last year. Another great video. See you in Silverstone! Something else that the Ferrari drivers are provided SF90s to drive around. Not too shabby. The gold Pateks are my pick from the watches of the Paddock. Gordon Ramsay is a serious F1 fan. I have my pics of him from Montreal. He did the back to back. Guessing he will do the trifecta and attend Silverstone.
Great video Kym and just as a point of reference, the British Superbike Guys (BSB) have their songs of choice played when they do their Superpoles. Enjoy the Silverstone traffic over the weekend 😃
F1 fan for 27 years lucky to have gone to Monaco many times …I enjoy your content much more than anything else. It’s nice to see your version. Whilst I love travelling I couldn’t do what you do !! Thanks Kym from a Pom 🎉🎉🎉🎉
These funny looking cars are called "Haflinger" from the company Puch, named after a local horse breed. They still in use by our military (but designed in the late 60s), 4 wheel driven and normaly a crew car for 8 soldiers in the mountains. PS: We had never that space btw.
I was camping at the GP and while I was in my soggy sleeping bag after an hour of intense rain the music was still blasting from our dutch neighbors' speakers. The atmosphere was mental!
G'day Kym, Think I spotted you on one of Ted's notebooks (Sat?) with you trying to get past Charles Leclerc with his entourage and you subsequently getting swamped while wearing your blue bucket hat. Stay Passionate.
I've always wondered how can I get a foot in the door at F1 in terms of the comms team, especially as a Malaysian where there's not much motorsporting to prove my worth.
So glad thé master himself basically says it; Jeddah is no (cause ultra dangerous) race circuit. It's a bob sleigh track... Hopefully something can be done maintaining the charm and improving safety at Spa.
these are Racers they know from the moment they strap on a helmet they are entering the danger zone .,, and if you wanna be great you have to be so tough they couldn’t castrate you with a chainsaw, I mean look at Zhou crash at Silverstone last year ,,, or Max crash at Silverstone in 2021 which was very hard hit in a older F1 car he may of been very seriously hurt ,, it’s also a very dangerous circuit,, as is Suzuka but any where anytime this could happen… I just think with Spa it probably shouldn’t be raced unless it’s bone dry,, and maybe put safer Barriers in like NASCAR or something idk
They can only analyse and learn. With "they" I also mean the FIA, by letting them race with zero visibility. Is the track dangerous? I don't know. But it took too long for the yellow/red flags to come out, resulting in disaster. And that is who's decision?
It's Not a Complete Race Weekend Without a Kym Illman Video
Hear hear!

Yes it was quite the cameo, I thought they were going to interview Kym 😂
Yes saw him a few times on tv, cannot miss the hat and face
The hat was what caught my eye!

Fingers crossed!
@@KymIllmanmy wife and I will be watching from the Fusion Lounge on Saturday and Sunday this time - not Paddock Club. First time at Silverstone.
Great video Kym and just as a point of reference, the British Superbike Guys (BSB) have their songs of choice played when they do their Superpoles. Enjoy the Silverstone traffic over the weekend 😃
Such a lovely tender moment at 10.00. Worth watching just for that. 🌞
6:37 Checo's Monaco,Singapore victories have VER written on them

Much appreciated!
Big hug from Portugal Kym!
Received from Paris!
Lovely video as always. Have a great time in Europe with your wife Kym!
I was the kid who almost missed zhou because I was talking to you :)
4 schnitzels?? LOL glad you are enjoying the local culture. Always enjoy your videos.
The schnitzel is king

I've only ever had my bag lost once and that was by British Airways as well! Most of my Nicaraguan rhum was broken too.
Good video. Thanks!!
Glad you liked it!
Your behind the scenes videos are as entertaining as the racing.
Music to my ears
I was camping at the GP and while I was in my soggy sleeping bag after an hour of intense rain the music was still blasting from our dutch neighbors' speakers. The atmosphere was mental!
Sounds like hell
We know how to throw a party and everyone's invited 😁
I loved the guys who did my outro with the loud hailer.
6:11 Perez got 2 race wins taken away on that banner. Monaco 2022 and Singapore 2022 wins are attributed to Max. Pretty sure Checo won those...
Kym takes on Paris! You should do a croissant comparison if you're still in town, mate
Great vid kym
Thanks for watching.
Love your videos!
Glad you like them!
G'day Kym, Think I spotted you on one of Ted's notebooks (Sat?) with you trying to get past Charles Leclerc with his entourage and you subsequently getting swamped while wearing your blue bucket hat. Stay Passionate.
Yep
1:47 I think I saw Lewis riding a motorcycle and all black helmet on Saturday and I was waiting for you too confirm but I guess I’ll never know.
I didn’t miss those so called vips.
Great insight, are you coming to Goodwood FOS after Silverstone?
Unfortunately not this year. I hope to make it there one year though
Great content as always Kym. Nice to see that your wife will join you at the next race. Is she getting her own WAGS of photographers post? LOL.
She won’t be at the track unfortunately
Handbags of the paddock 😂 love that
your the best!
I've always wondered how can I get a foot in the door at F1 in terms of the comms team, especially as a Malaysian where there's not much motorsporting to prove my worth.
Kym, since you’re attending all these races live, what’s it like watching without any commentary? Do you miss it?
It’s frustrating
Watched you rushing up to turn 3 from the grandstand short before the start. Not an easy way
They turned me back. Wouldn’t let me go to turn three. I was mighty dark about that.
Can you do Silverstone meet and greet at woodcote
I will promote this on Wednesday. Not sure where it will be.
In baseball, it is called "walkout music", played as the batter heads to the plate....
Hi kym did the one from mc laren taste best as it was free😂🎉
At 4:58 is that not the Latvia flag?
Similar but the Latvian flag is a bit darker and the white stripe is thinner I believe
Logan putting on Lose Yourself by Eminem is so real😭
The outro🔥🔥🔥
Flares looked like they drifter across the TV camera. Did affect the photographers?
Not from where I was.
Lewis in such a dope Zegna outfit!
Loved the video kym
Love seeing your name pop up here.
personally i don't think your videos need silly stock images mate,. the story telling with the great photos do all the heavy lifting
Will pass it onto my editor
Very nice video Kym, glad your wife is able to join you …
Me too!
So glad thé master himself basically says it; Jeddah is no (cause ultra dangerous) race circuit. It's a bob sleigh track...
Hopefully something can be done maintaining the charm and improving safety at Spa.
We Dutch people love to go camping on our holliday
Csmp people in Austria ?! Have you never seen the Sound of Music 🙂
Monocular* :)
Where do you think the Dutch stay for the weekend?
A lot of them camp
Guten Morgen? That sounded German 😁
I speak a little bit of German!
How many more young lives has to be sacrificed until the Damn Spa becomes a safer place to race?
these are Racers they know from the moment they strap on a helmet they are entering the danger zone .,, and if you wanna be great you have to be so tough they couldn’t castrate you with a chainsaw, I mean look at Zhou crash at Silverstone last year ,,, or Max crash at Silverstone in 2021 which was very hard hit in a older F1 car he may of been very seriously hurt ,, it’s also a very dangerous circuit,, as is Suzuka but any where anytime this could happen… I just think with Spa it probably shouldn’t be raced unless it’s bone dry,, and maybe put safer Barriers in like NASCAR or something idk
They can only analyse and learn. With "they" I also mean the FIA, by letting them race with zero visibility.
Is the track dangerous? I don't know. But it took too long for the yellow/red flags to come out, resulting in disaster. And that is who's decision?
You don’t have to respect Verstappen as a world champion but you gotta give atleast abit of attention to his comment about Jeddah. Safety first.
I suggest never using British Airways. Flights being canceled and delayed all the time and affected my Fiance and Mother.
the dutch love to camp
They certainly do
I need a schnitzel now
Some were a square foot!
The Dutch love camping and partying
