Just in case your wondering how the the Sepang pole times have evolved from 1999 to 2017 . The pole time today was 9.612 seconds faster than the very first Sepang pole set by Michael Schumacher for the this first Malaysian GP in 1999.
I'm a Ferrari fan, but Lewis is really an amazing driver, Mercedes here are slower then Ferrari and Red bull but he make (again) the difference, amazing skills...
Yexel 09 Haha, still 6 Races! Still 150 Points to get and everything can happen! Imagine Ham crashes out! Imagine Vettel wins it! 3 Points back. Than imagine Ham's Engine blows in, don't know Japan or something and Vettel wins it. What ya gonna say then? And after his Engine blows he has to go back +5 Pos in the Grid...
His steering inputs are actually quite aggressive. In the early days of his F1 career, especially during the KERS era, he was known for wearing down his tires much more quickly than others, including his then-teammate Jenson Button. Since then though he's learned to work with his engineers to extract insane performance from the Pirelli tires. Sure, in the second half of the 2013 season Pirelli did release harder compounds because many drivers experienced tire blowouts during races, but the compounds are still softer than the old Bridgestones. Hamilton had learned how the Pirellis perform and that is one of his main advantages: his ability to learn new techniques and adapt them to his driving style very quickly.
@@ryanjonathanmartin3933 Yeah, although, I miss the Lewis with the Bridgestone tires. He could be so much more aggressive with them and used to make crazy moves back then. Nowadays, he needs to take care of the tire.
I think 2017 has my favorite pole laps. This shoulder cam and the look of the cars and how they take the fast stuff so quick but still require a bit more work than the current cars, its always a treat to watch.
The ammount of hatred towards Lewis is insane here. Somebody tell this people EVERYONE, literally EVERYONE wins in the "best" car. There's no world champion that won in anything but the best car in the last 30 years.
vettel is going to finish P2, he has way too much pace compared to the lower midfield and midfield cars and he can be quicker than the two red bulls and bottas. Raikkonen won't put that much of a fight in letting him through. but still hamilton is too good and he's going to win his 4th wc imo.
Agreed. If he wrecked thats one thing but when engines fail its a bummer. Im sure Vettel will be in the mix though. It will be fun to see quickly he makes his way towards the contenders. I hope lewis wins though after what happened in last year.
JW Of course it's the car, but having a dominant car still requires skill, and that's what Hamilton still has and what Vettel also has in his Blown diffuser years.
All season it is been said and proven by data that Ferrari has overall better car, in corners, behind others cars, they don't degrade tires that fast and so on, main thing is suspension, while Mercedes have pathetic rear suspension, making car always oversteer, lose grip and slide, have to avoid curbs as much as possible, and that is the main thing why Ferrari is overall better car, comparing cam drives and data footage it is been said Ferrari drives like on train tracks it is that good, but it is Mercedes fault by trying to have different low angled suspension since season start and that was a mistake, now they can't change it until next season. Mercedes have +3-5 km/h top speed, that is it, yet a lot of guy still states the old news that Mercedes dominated because of the car, yet even Ferrari said that they have a better car. Anyways, would be interesting to see what lap times Hamilton would crank in a Ferrari.
I'm a Ferrari fan, but Lewis is really an amazing driver, Mercedes here are slower then Ferrari and Red bull but he make (again) the difference, amazing skills...
Lewis, as a craziest fan of you from Malaysia, I have a song for you to celebrate your 70th pole (most importantly, this popular song is also in Malay language): "Jampi" (Hael Huzaini; courtesy of ASTRO Malaysia and ERA FM) Bermula pandangan pertama, Terlihat kamu di depan mata, Terasa debar di dada, Menahan rasa bila kau ada, Kau buat aku terpaku, Sepertinya diriku yang mahu diri kamu, Dan bila kamu hadir bagai satu misteri, Ternyata diriku bagai sudah dijampi, Dan bila kau dambakan hatiku kembali, Ternyata hanya kau harus aku cintai! Ha ha ha, aku ketawa! Terasa aku tak tentu arah, Kau buat aku terpaku, Sepertinya diriku yang mahu diri kamu, Dan bila kau hadir bagai satu misteri, Ternyata diriku bagai sudah dijampi, Dan bila kau dambakan hatiku kembali, Ternyata hanya kau harus aku cintai! Malam berganti malam, Masih terbayang apa yang berlaku pada diriku, Ternyata kamu, Ternyata kau mahu diriku selama kau milikku! Dan bila kau hadir bagai satu misteri, Ternyata diriku bagai sudah dijampi, Dan bila kau dambakan hatiku kembali, Ternyata hanya kau harus aku cintai! Dan bila... Ternyata... Yang aku cintai! (2x)
Could someone please explain to me why at 1:28 he takes this line around the final corner? Is he trying to avoid the worst of the negative camber? Or was it because he locked up on the brakes a little?
As you can see he locked up , without the lock up he wouldn't have had to save the car with some drifting skills, he was going to pick the wide line because it was the better one, but he wouldn't have gone that wide if he wasn't going to lock up, i made it as clear as possible
Hamilton chose to have the old, slower aero package while Bottas chose the new, supposedly faster one and outqualified bottas by seven tenths while also having electronic issues. Incredible race instinct and driving.
Al Catpone And today was demonstrated that the old package was faster than the new one. Bottas said he couldn't go any faster and he was too much slower.
What a great angle! I always wanted to have half the view blocked. What happened to sticking it in the middle somewhere? Did one of the bosses get something stuck up their middle and have to change it?
Thought Kimi had a chance today as well. He's had about as much success as the Force India's in terms of getting a win. Even Verstappen managed to get the rub of the green today.
We need T-Cam Liberty Media! You are not truly great until we get T-Cam, Telemetry and ERS usage. This camera is horrible. AND DON'T ARGUE THAT YOU HAVE IT THAT WAY 'SO WE CAN SEE THE DRIVER AT WORK'.
Once again stupid shoulder cam and no telemetry. I don't understand who thought at the beginning of this season that showing the pole laps from a much worse camera angle without the speedometer is a good idea. Maybe that's the only good thing about the halo that it will make the shoulder cam unwatchable so they will be forced to use the t-cam.
One of the most beautiful track ever built, heartbreaking to know this is the last edition. I really hope it will come back one day.
i agree it really is a great track.
Maybe instead Sochi 👀
Rumours sepang will replace Russian gp🤯
Would still love to a night race here under the lights. Same goes for Portimao.
@@Reaper-lr8pq just for nice digits
And this is why F1 MUST return to Sepang. I want to race there soooo badly.
Shame this track is being dropped, the faster Aeros on this gen of F1 car is perfect for this track
He may not be the most popular, but you can't deny his talent.
Chris G that's the funny thing though. With social media, he is the most popular
chris g he's the most popular f1 driver are u smoking pot quit it , please bro teloelie the honest koelie
That's just social media. Among F1 fans Kimi is always voted most popular.
Chris G Witch Talent
Chris G the most talented driver on the grid.

Stephen Taylor thanks it would be great if F1 gave us little info bits at every track
Even though he had a slight lockup @1:27 he still managed to get pole! Wow!
Sophia M he weren't even trying to make good lap. He could make it much better, but car have done most work which was enough.
W11 on this track will be insane
I miss this track so much
Ferrari celebrates it's 70th anniversary by giving Hamilton his 70th pole position. Great work Ferrari, you never disappoint!
Te ne vai a fare in culo?
If you were a true Ferrari fan you would have known... they disappoint us almost every time they pick up a strategy.
Jacopo Console seriamente...
It's 4th Sepang pole for him in a row..
I'm a Ferrari fan, but Lewis is really an amazing driver, Mercedes here are slower then Ferrari and Red bull but he make (again) the difference, amazing skills...
0:03 I thought Hamilton was about to jump into the future
he did
Joao Guilherme lol 😃😃
R.I.P chances to win the championship of Sebastian Vettel 26/03/17 - 30/09/17
Nah it died in Singapore
Yexel 09 Haha, still 6 Races! Still 150 Points to get and everything can happen! Imagine Ham crashes out! Imagine Vettel wins it! 3 Points back. Than imagine Ham's Engine blows in, don't know Japan or something and Vettel wins it. What ya gonna say then? And after his Engine blows he has to go back +5 Pos in the Grid...
would love to see the look on your faces if he wins it.
Delirious User I know, right. If Hamilton does win we will be back! Amirite?!
+Delirious User That what I tough before Singapore lol :)
Lewis is the smoothest driver in the game. Finesses the car around the track and comes out first.
His steering inputs are actually quite aggressive. In the early days of his F1 career, especially during the KERS era, he was known for wearing down his tires much more quickly than others, including his then-teammate Jenson Button. Since then though he's learned to work with his engineers to extract insane performance from the Pirelli tires.

@@ryanjonathanmartin3933 Yeah, although, I miss the Lewis with the Bridgestone tires. He could be so much more aggressive with them and used to make crazy moves back then. Nowadays, he needs to take care of the tire.
It's amazing how closely lewis' knuckles fit in the tiny indent on the side of the cockpit
I think 2017 has my favorite pole laps. This shoulder cam and the look of the cars and how they take the fast stuff so quick but still require a bit more work than the current cars, its always a treat to watch.
Same
and no halo
Notice his fingers clicking random buttons? It's official, Hamilton is using cheat codes on his F1 car ;)
Changing his front brake bias etc?
Danoli Changing Fuel Mix
MarvisTv ever heard sarcasm?
Danoli Lol these guys don't know what a joke is. Probably why they are Hamilton fans.
Haha some people will never get sarcasm.
Max: I hope i don't get sandwiched
Kimi: I hope I don't get hit
😂
And where the hell is the telemetry? Stupid shoulder cam.
"It's okay guys, Vettel is starting at the back"
I'm a Ferrari fan but Hamilton is just perfect. In a track like Malaysia that should be for Ferrari, he made his 70th pole.
Oh my, that glare is terrible... you can tell he knows every braking points by heart ....
Man it's been 6 years I thought it was like 3-4 years
Maurizio, Toto is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?
Sergio Pérez hey checo
Toto Wolff Make sure Bottas can get 2nd and Lewis the Win with strategy ok u got that
Toto Wolff Thank you for turning Lewis Engine up
Toto Wolff Can you get the FIA to make all F1 teams run with the Hybrid Technology to make sure that on every lap will have a battle for the lead?
Playstation 5247 is this a joke or what?!
The ammount of hatred towards Lewis is insane here. Somebody tell this people EVERYONE, literally EVERYONE wins in the "best" car. There's no world champion that won in anything but the best car in the last 30 years.
Raikkonen in 2007?? 😂😂😂
Or Villeneuve 1997 ? Or Keke 1982 ?
This wasn't the best car this year. Ferrari had the better package in the first half and in the last few races.
The Thing 2007 Ferrari was the best car, but it was close
The Thing Villeneuve had the best car genius
President Kimi this comment needs more likes
The speed through turns 5, 6, 7 And 8 is crazy 😂😂
I want to see him and Max in the same team...
I like Max and Ricciardo together
I honestly see a ham and ric combo is more likely than ham and ver
But a vet and ver would be interesting to see
LOL Lewis'll be handed his own ass by Max
Gtfo,Hamilton is from another league. Max can't even beat Ricc
come on lewis will get his 4th championship this year
Im a ham fan but i feel bad for vettel i want them to push eatch other
Same
Paypack for Singapore
vettel is going to finish P2, he has way too much pace compared to the lower midfield and midfield cars and he can be quicker than the two red bulls and bottas. Raikkonen won't put that much of a fight in letting him through. but still hamilton is too good and he's going to win his 4th wc imo.
Maybe Kimi will cause an....accident with Hamilton off the start? Who knows..
Agreed. If he wrecked thats one thing but when engines fail its a bummer. Im sure Vettel will be in the mix though. It will be fun to see quickly he makes his way towards the contenders. I hope lewis wins though after what happened in last year.
We miss Malaysia
Bring back Sepang
Hamilton is just pure talent - End of.
I was turning my phone so the glare would of away 😂😂stupidity to the next level
Love this track. So bad it is not on the calendar anymore...
But have you noticed that HAM locked in the last corner? IF he had not made It, It would have been under 1:30
Raikonnen locked up too in this corner
Tommorow gonna be exciting considering vettel's at the back
Gonna see plenty of action..
CONGRATULATIONS LEWIS !!
Still waiting for this track to come back to F1..
The economy in Malaysia its going back to normal day by day.... probably soon I dunno
Where are the haters saying he's lucky? Or it's the car and not Lewis?.. 8 tenths quicker than his team mate.. It's hurts doesn't it .. ahaha
JW Of course it's the car, but having a dominant car still requires skill, and that's what Hamilton still has and what Vettel also has in his Blown diffuser years.
Bitch vettel would have out qualified him and you know it. He is currently a better driver.
Gabriel Taylor no he's not
All season it is been said and proven by data that Ferrari has overall better car, in corners, behind others cars, they don't degrade tires that fast and so on, main thing is suspension, while Mercedes have pathetic rear suspension, making car always oversteer, lose grip and slide, have to avoid curbs as much as possible, and that is the main thing why Ferrari is overall better car, comparing cam drives and data footage it is been said Ferrari drives like on train tracks it is that good, but it is Mercedes fault by trying to have different low angled suspension since season start and that was a mistake, now they can't change it until next season. Mercedes have +3-5 km/h top speed, that is it, yet a lot of guy still states the old news that Mercedes dominated because of the car, yet even Ferrari said that they have a better car. Anyways, would be interesting to see what lap times Hamilton would crank in a Ferrari.
john molloy Yes he is, you just don't want to open your eyes bloody kid
F1 back at it again with the fucking shoulder cam
T7 & 8 is glorious even in a sim
Que crack, the fastest F1 driver on Saturdays ever
Carlitox b
Brainwashed kid
We really need to get rid of this camera!!!!!!
good to see mr drain cover didnt make an appearance today
How I wanted to see Senna alongside Lewis 65 pole and Shumi when Lewis equals him, but its life and we didnt get that great apportunity. SAD
You've gotta admit, these cars still sound nice as hell..
Locked up into the final corner and still gets pole, he must have been miles faster than the rest of the field over the rest of the lap
He looks so calm
I'm obsessed with watching that little grove that stop hamiltons knuckles hitting the side when he turns the wheel.
BOOMSHAKALAKA, THE SHOULDER CAM IS BACK.
on a positive note for vettel : vettel wont crash out tomorrow with kimi and verstappen on the first corner
After Singapore I just want Ham to run a smart race and extend his lead. No DNFs no engine failures! Im enjoying this season way more than the last.
Please bring the T-cams back
New Track Record for Lewis Hamilton. 1m 30s,076. 4 poles position in Malaysia and 70th career pole position.
I'm a Ferrari fan, but Lewis is really an amazing driver, Mercedes here are slower then Ferrari and Red bull but he make (again) the difference, amazing skills...
benz is the best car...no one beat benz engineering.,,
Lewis, as a craziest fan of you from Malaysia, I have a song for you to celebrate your 70th pole (most importantly, this popular song is also in Malay language):
"Jampi" (Hael Huzaini; courtesy of ASTRO Malaysia and ERA FM)
Bermula pandangan pertama,
Terlihat kamu di depan mata,
Terasa debar di dada,
Menahan rasa bila kau ada,
Kau buat aku terpaku,
Sepertinya diriku yang mahu diri kamu,
Dan bila kamu hadir bagai satu misteri,
Ternyata diriku bagai sudah dijampi,
Dan bila kau dambakan hatiku kembali,
Ternyata hanya kau harus aku cintai!
Ha ha ha, aku ketawa!
Terasa aku tak tentu arah,
Kau buat aku terpaku,
Sepertinya diriku yang mahu diri kamu,
Dan bila kau hadir bagai satu misteri,
Ternyata diriku bagai sudah dijampi,
Dan bila kau dambakan hatiku kembali,
Ternyata hanya kau harus aku cintai!
Malam berganti malam,
Masih terbayang apa yang berlaku pada diriku,
Ternyata kamu,
Ternyata kau mahu diriku selama kau milikku!
Dan bila kau hadir bagai satu misteri,
Ternyata diriku bagai sudah dijampi,
Dan bila kau dambakan hatiku kembali,
Ternyata hanya kau harus aku cintai!
Dan bila...
Ternyata...
Yang aku cintai! (2x)
He makes it look so easy. The car looked like it is on rails.
I have to say that Hamilton is the better driver this season, and Mercedes as a team are doing awesome.
Sepang dalam kenangan.1999-2017
if you watch closely you can see that hamilton is on pole
This lap makes it look so easy
Great lap, great footage, poor camera angle. Please put the camera in the middle so we can see the lap like the driver saw it.
Fórmula E and Eletric cars is not a future this cars is a future amazing sound f1
Sepang will back one day great circiut
BRING BACK SEPANG
soon to be the greatest f1 driver ever 🇬🇧
If he keeps going and Mercedes stays consistent he's gonna become the goat and break Schumachers record
The ferrari fanboyism is too damn high in every video.
soooo smooth with the streering wheel...
Could someone please explain to me why at 1:28 he takes this line around the final corner? Is he trying to avoid the worst of the negative camber? Or was it because he locked up on the brakes a little?
As you can see he locked up , without the lock up he wouldn't have had to save the car with some drifting skills, he was going to pick the wide line because it was the better one, but he wouldn't have gone that wide if he wasn't going to lock up, i made it as clear as possible
wide last turn + small lock up. other than that, it's perfection
Who knew that that yellow button at the top left of the steering wheel was actually the DRS?
RUclips comments are shit tier, but salty F1 fan RUclips comments are something else
they are next level retarded yeah
F1 ain't even F1 anymore. Can't be any real rivalries when cars are so unequal. #ComeBackF1
Googelplex they're not unequal. The Ferrari is clearly the faster car
Hamilton is such a legend
Hamilton in the Ferrari would win WDC this year. Enough said
Shadowboost True af
Shadowboost if he was in Ferrari i would not hate him .
RUBBISH!!! He'd not've beaten Kimi even!
Even Ciaron respects Lewis. And he's a massive Kimi fan. Just drop it already.
I don't understand why they don't use the close up camera they had in Australia and Austria, gives a much greater sense of speed.......
Happy birthday max!
Good lap.
Hahaha , the BEEEST... Follow the leader LEWIS HAMILTON 😎😎😘💪✌
Gianluccas Palhuca boooo
Sebastian Vettel Fan5 Vettel had the car broken up until the race ended 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gianluccas Palhuca 👍👍
Vettel back in grid so Ferrari cant do team orders.THIS IS YOUR RACE KIMI LETS FUCKING GOOOOO
Pole of Legend
Hamilton chose to have the old, slower aero package while Bottas chose the new, supposedly faster one and outqualified bottas by seven tenths while also having electronic issues. Incredible race instinct and driving.
Al Catpone oh wow definitely skill wow wow
Al Catpone They don't choose it. Engineers decide those things
No, watch the interview. Lewis went back to the old package while bottas had the new package.
Carlos Piedra Nope Hamilton decided to run the old one cause he didn't feel confident with the new one.
Al Catpone And today was demonstrated that the old package was faster than the new one. Bottas said he couldn't go any faster and he was too much slower.
Cmon, post the qualifying highlights already!
His DRS light (the blue one on the left next to the display) stayed on throughout the lap.
# THE BEST IN THE WORLD
0:36 is that a glicth? lol
Lewis Hamilton is winning tomorrow!!! Hurrah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The best ever....
Awful last corner, but still gets it. It's Hammer time.
Awesome lap!!
If hakkinen was lewis teammate. Lewis would be like coulthard
if...would...people like you always come up with hypotheticals. Probably because you can't accept the truth.
Hahahaha nope
What a great angle! I always wanted to have half the view blocked. What happened to sticking it in the middle somewhere? Did one of the bosses get something stuck up their middle and have to change it?
Thought Kimi had a chance today as well. He's had about as much success as the Force India's in terms of getting a win. Even Verstappen managed to get the rub of the green today.
Wow, that was quite a lap
According to Mercedes all calculations indicated that this car was not good enough for pole.
This is Quali right?
"KIMI" Let pass Vettel for the Championship!
Lewis get it... destroy Ferrari!
I think kimi has good chances tomorrow
Sepang if you’re curious
Let's hope his engine doesn't blow up this year
We need T-Cam Liberty Media! You are not truly great until we get T-Cam, Telemetry and ERS usage. This camera is horrible. AND DON'T ARGUE THAT YOU HAVE IT THAT WAY 'SO WE CAN SEE THE DRIVER AT WORK'.
