- F1, WRC, BTCC, Le Mans, every form of motorsport has its high point. That is to say there was an era that stands out as probably the greatest of all time. That could just be because of the coolest cars, or the best drivers or even a combination of all factors. Whatever the reasons, we've picked the five that we think are the best in motorsport history.

For me rally's best era was the World Rally Car ruleset. The Lancer Evo, the Impreza, Ford Focus, Citroen Xsara, Seat Cordoba, the Corolla, Skoda Octavia... Every car that raced there was iconic
80' I think were the glory days of Motorsport in general, so much freedom on engines and more
Brilliant point. Also with aerodynamics with the ground effects and all. I wish I was alive back then to witness it in person
@@AsterixMiguelix definitely man, I am of 84', so I have enjoyed the 90' of Motorsport and it wasn't bad, 2001 I was at Monza for F1, but I wish to be born a bit earlier to have even more fun
it felt like technology boomed so quickly and the regulations couldn't keep up. So motorsport just went free for all and developed an era of monster cars that are all so iconic.
I'd disagree with the WRC era chosen; too few manufacturers, identikit events, speed isn't everything - and a sport which continued to be invisible to all but the diehards.
The late 90s - early 00s is easily better; far more competition with 6-8 manufacturers, factory drives for plenty of drivers - and still pulled in mainstream media coverage.
I came here to say the same thing, in 1999 there was 10 different makes competing in WRC. Then in that era you had drivers like Mäkinen, McRae, Gronholm, Sainz, Burns, Solberg and the rise of a certain Sebastian Loeb
00s era also was downfalls reason was Audi is ways ahead of other manufacturers rivals so after 2003 most manufacturers left leave Audi and Piccorola only left for win panoz is not doing great unfortunately
@@mrjdmtunerboy.1463 they’re talking about Rallying, not endurance racing
You guys hit the nail on the head with 80s F1 and group C. My favorite years as well.
Rallying for me group b aside was best when we had subaru mitsubishi toyota seat skoda ford hyundi citroen and peugot 97 to 02,was also so many top top drivers
My choice for F1's best era is the 1970s. DFVs, flat 12s, ground effect, simple cars, whacky designs cool drivers etc
1982 ... the most memorable F1 year ever, positive and negative.
(RAW saw Hunt beat Lauda at Zandvoort 1975, Ferrari 312T tifosi ever since)
RIP Gilles Villeneuve, Riccardo Palletti.
I'll agree with the IndyCar/CART era...the 1990's were amazing
Sportscar prototype racing and Le Mans are above everything else for me. It has everything. Can't wait for the hypercar era to get started
You and me both - and I've waited a very, very long time for Porsche and Ferrari rivalry to really go head-to-head in sports car raciing, and next year it just might happen with the 449P.... 🙂
NO WAY WERE THE 80'S A GOLDEN ERA! I started watching F1 in 1981 when I was 10 years old, so you'd think I'd agree with this, but NO. The greatest era was 2003 to the end of 2013. By then I was over 30 and most of the drivers were younger than me, so no rose coloured glasses. Schumacher's dominance was finally ended in 2003, although it came back for most of 2004. 2011 was a Vettel show as were the last 9 races of 2013...but seriously, Alonso, Kimi, Hamilton, Button and Brawn, Vettel, Montoya V10's and V8's, 2004 and 2005 cars held lap records for over a decade...no deaths...reliable cars...6 different champions, same as the 80's...and seriously, 1982 may have had 11 different winners and a streak of 9 different winners in a row, but it was more of a last man standing battle of attrition-the whole season...we could hardly wait to see the season end
Sure the cars were more reliable in the 00's, but when over half the field is a lap down at the end of the race, and like in 2007 only 4 teams reached 50 points in the constructors title, isn't like the competition was exactly level.
If you really think the 50s, 60s, 70s 90s and 00s decades in formula 1 didn’t have the same amount of legendary drivers, beautiful cars and incredible racing then you are so wrong, the 60s, 70s and 90s had 7 different world champions and the 90s had a large amount of legends such as the great Michael Schumacher, Alain Prost, Ayrton Senna, Nigel Mansell, Nelson Piquet, Mika Hakkinen, I could go on forever and also the WRC era you picked was so wrong, the 90s and 00s is the greatest WRC era I mean come on you had more great legends like Colin McRae, Carlos Sainz, Juha Kankkunen, Tommi Makinen, Marcus Gronholm, Peter Solberg, Sebastian Loeb, Richard Burns, Didier Auriol, how could you dismiss all of what I’ve just said
Easy there, the poor chap just had to choose one. Something that, in the F1 part, you haven't done
The '80s make total sense as the best decade of F1 if you had to pick one. They had great races, a wild mix of different design ideas, great drivers and incredibly close very dramatic championships.
The 80s was the greatest decade for all forms of motorsport from F1 to WEC to WRC and the best looking cars in all of them!
If you want the best racing of all. Go to small race meetings at Thruxton, Brands Hatch, Oulton Park, Caldwell, etc. Always close racing, lot’s of incidents and exciting. Added bonus - cheaper to get in.
No mention on JGTC/Super GT here. I think the golden era for JGTC/SGT should be up to 2003 season.
Simply because Nissan works teams was running Skylines, as well as more memorable cars were in that particular era. This is just before Nissan switches from Skylines to 350Zs, and Toyota switches from Supras to Lexus SC430s/Soarers.
The '90s were very spectacular. But IndyCars golden era might have only just started with how it has been growing in the past years.
Man you’re absolutely spot on with your picks. You just gained a subscriber.
Glad you showed some love for Indycar. I've been watching highlights from the 2022 seasons, there's a lot of variety. Especially when you have races on a oval than next time it's on a road course, than after that a street course. Those street course races can be tight and chaotic.
Honorable mention, Nascar 1994-2006
Don't forget how crazy it was that there were two ovals built in Europe specifically for CART at the end of the 90s! This isn't imaginable by any means from todays perspective!
There was also one in Japan, that was egg shaped of all things, and it made for awesome racing.
@@laurenmp7486let me guess, twin ring motegi?
@@joaquingonzalez834 yep!
Where's Motogp? That period between 2009-2018 was immense
A major remark: there were a lot of races in 1952 each organised by local automobile clubs, and the World Championship of Drivers counted only the most prestigious - Grand Epreuves. None was held in Formula One cars, but there were other races in that class in 1952, e.g. the 250-mile Ulster Trophy at the Dundrod circuit. Three "non-championhip" ones were held at Goodwood alone! Ascari participated in many, as well, winning at least 4 times, including the Pau Grand Prix.
Australia had its touring car series as well culminating in the Bathurst 1000.
The old win on Sunday sell on Monday meant something then.
Group c in the Aussie super cars brilliant and Bathurst was 24 hrs
You said it. homologation special. Need more of that.
It would take a lot of time to find counterarguments to each choice.
It would've been cool if you included NASCAR and it's late 90s to early 2000s era though.
It was spectacular to watch
To me the best eras are defined by the best drivers. Juan Manuel Fangio was the 1950's, the 1960's is Jim Clark who my father who had zero interest in racing was always rooting for him when the races were on TV. For American racing there is one name, Unser and it goes on.
Great work nice to watch!
That Volvo 850R was my dream wagon as a kid...Still want one.
80's golden age for f1 and group b for rallyes...
I'd say that I agree with most of these generally, but I have to say that those early WRC spec years say (99-04) ish were probably a better era for rallying than the one listed above. Ford, Peugeot, Subaru, Mitsubushi, Skoda, Hyundai, Seat and Citroen, drivers like Mcrae, Burns, Sainz, Makinen, Gronholm, Panizzi and Loeb, it just felt like so much was going on with so many manufacturers and personalities behind the wheel IMO
I’m just glad someone is officially saying something I’ve been thinking. Now my sentiments are legitimised
How about adding NASCAR and drag racing to the list?
Group b... formula one 70s 80s... sport 60s 70s... groups 5 and dtm... cart 90s... ever
Certainly agree with you about the late 60s / early 70s sports cars, especially the original prototype Group 5.
Liked the video!
Agree, except for the BTCC. Prefer it now.Le Man's series, we need a UK race not just GTcars
F1: mid to late 60's. Rally, group B every time. How many manufacturers are in the WRC now? I stopped watching after the rally section of the video. Each to their own, but you're wrong! 😁.
you should do one about 5 other series
Simplesmente perfeito, parabéns👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍❤️
IMO, 1990’S Group A Rallying should be up there.
Rally 2017-21? Are you out of your mind? 90s and early 00s had up to 7 manufacturers with many top drivers.
NASCAR in the 80's or 90's should have been included
Whoops, I think you meant to say Group C carried on to 1993.
No love for NASCAR?
No
Were is DTM 1990s and Group A cars ? 😞
Nice
tldw I want to watch the battle on the street, not against the air
Dakar
I don't agree with f1
2003-12 so basically 2000s were true golden era
the 1990s in Indycar was horrible. the real golden era of the sport was the early 2000s (2002 or 2003) to 2011. and that is a simple fact. the cars looked awesome, they sounded great, and were driven by some of racing's best like scott dixon, ryan briscoe, tony kanaan, dario franchitti, and of course, dan wheldon.
Nascar
No NASCAR in the 90’s, typical
If Motogp didn't get in then Nascar didn't stand a chance
08:50, What's Lahncha? Never heard of it.!
It's Lancia
Great rivalries help…Hamilton won all his championships only beating hand picked team mates for example…boring.
No nascar
For once I'm early lmao
I desagree with the sports cars...
The golden era was the lmp1 hybrid from 2014 until 2017...
And the lap of Bellof at the Nürburgring is not the fastest ever lap there because Neel Jani broke that with the 919 Evo...
