I love these views into the humans behind the racing drivers. I didn't know most of Andretti's pre-F1 story and this has given me a new level of respect for him. Forza Mario!
So glad Mario is still with us. A great driver with a good heart, who spawned many other great drivers with his surname.
4:41 Hope you're listening Alonso.
?
LOL
McLaren and Alonso fucked up. Even if Honda gave a poor engine, it isn't completely their fault. This is coming from a McLaren fan myself.
@@shiny9219 Basically Alonso (and McLaren) have destroyed any good connections with Honda. This led him to not getting a competitive ride for this year's Indy 500 with Andretti Autosport. Also it seems Alonso has pretty much burned all brides that could potentially lead to a competitive return to F1.
@@maxpower2377 Alonso didn't only burn the connection there. He Destroyed the relationship with Red Bull in 2009. When he insist on getting a short contract. Using Red Bull as a stop gap before joining Ferrari in 2010. Red Bull obviously feeling insulted by this, promote Sebastian Vettel instead
He burn the bridge with Ferrari in 2015 when he break the contract and go to McLaren.
Mario is awesome. What a great ambassador for the sport!
An absolute Legend...
Happy birthday man!
Cheers!!
Man I sure do miss Nazareth Speedway. I could hear the cars from my house. Happy Birthday Champ.
I've always been a fan of Mario Andretti. I was a little kid back then, so I could be proud of my name. When people hear my name nowadays, they think about an irritating plumber with a moustache and a brother called Luigi.
But seriously, this man could race everything with four wheels, an engine and a steering wheel and he 'd win.
He was in a refugee camp, never knew that
A fantastic men, a legend
One of the best racers ever love you mario
Happy Birthday Legend!
Also here is a Shameless plug, *_GO HONDA!_*
those kinda videos r so inspiring, every time I watch them I feel like I can do anything. Be great out there, we don't have so much time.
Auguri Mario. I hope to see also "A letter to my younger self" with Arturo Merzario on this channel one day.
The hero who helped saveing Niki Lauda? Yeah!
And also with a lot of victories in sports car championship (forerunner of WEC) with Ferrari and Alfa Romeo. Second at Le Mans in 1973 and at the 1000 km of Nürburgring with Ferrari. Third at Daytona 24h, winner at the 1000km of Monza and at Targa Florio

Happy birthday legend ❤️
Mario Andretti is the greatest racing legend of all time:
Change my mind.
Changed your mind. That's how great I am.
@@totowolffofficial all you do is sit pretty. You ain't race nor built no car.
@@user-zv8qg1co4z exactly my point.
Bruce McLaren
Nah you’re good with that
I'm a big fan of this legend. Found his biography amongst other books in my grandpa's house. You can feel the passion to motorsport in between the lines.
Mario Andretti among others, true legends of another era... beautiful video, thank you Champion
The epitome of class!!!
A fine gentlemen and more importantly, a great human being.
Viva, Mario...
Beautiful Legend ❤️❤️
The people’s Champion, the definitive LEGEND of world Motorsport is Mario!
He didn't get things on a Silver platter, he worked hard to achieve what he did and he has a huge respect from where he is coming from..
The f1 channel is the best you tube 's channel
Mario.... Is....... MAESTRO!!!!!!!
Hi is and will always be a Legend #marioandretti
Happy birthday Mario. One of the best racers of all time.
Along with Gilles Villeneuve, Mario Andretti is certainly the likeable and most authentic man in the history of motorsport. His modest origins certainly have a lot to do with it. Long life to his person.

"...enjoy every minute of it."
My Dad's, and subsequently my favorite driver. We got to meet him at a tire shop in Prescott Valley, AZ just a couple of years before my dad died. Great day!
Thank you Uncle Mario..........happy birthday to you as well! You're the reason I started watching motor sport as a young kid. A true RACING GOD! 🏁
What a great gentleman,true old school, humble and down to earth. Champion Mario!
People like Mario Andrreti,Nigel Mansell,Alain Prost and Nelson Piquet who are still alive, are missed from current Formula 1 paddocks.
Thanks for posting this. It's always interesting to see how some of these experienced people reflect back on their careers and lives.
A true legend an amazing man and driver i had the privilege to watch him at Monza in 82 magic
My 1st and greatest F1 hero. I got into F1 as a kid because he was the American on the grid (I'm from NYC) but kept watching F1 because he was so amazing! Thank you Mario for giving decades of Formula 1 passion! You truly are a racing god!
Happy birthday Mario Andretti 🎂🎁🎉
Absolutely beautiful. What a wonderful tribute to one of the greats.
These people weren't only racing drivers. They were bloody gladiators.
We enjoyed watching you bloom like a sunflower under the spotlight of the sun....
Thank you for staying true to yourself and bringing joy to the fans who followed you and your son.... you were special. You are special. You will always be special to racing.🍻
This is so beautiful, I love you Mario

So all I can say is, happy birthday champ.

Legend
Met him a few years ago in Calgary of all places. Really good guy...
This gave me chills! #wewantmore
What a *LEGEND*
Happy birthday you legend! The real example of the American dream!
Mario never celebrated his world Championship. There is no donuts, wild celebrations with his loved ones.
He just went home and hoping his teammate will survive to see the team success
Sei un mito Mario auguri di buon compleanno !!
It is so sad he is not a bigger celebrity in the US
4:54 just a bunch of legends
Mario was a magic driver, the best driver ever from the US
Technically he is italian but ... ok
As an italian, i say, he's half italian and half american
YES
I love everything Mario said.
This reminds a lot of Player's Tribune. Nice.
when a dude wins the Indianapolis 500, The Daytona 500, multiple Indycar championships, AND THEN, wins the greatest open wheel world championship in Formula One ALL IN the span of a dozen years! Well, it means the guys a serious gangster
#Legend
Fantastico
