Does FORMULA 1 have a HEART!?

- This heartwarming moment proved that F1 has a heart! On Thursday of the 2024 Dutch GP I spotted a number of people in hospital beds being wheeled through pit lane. This was the amazing work of Stichting Ambulance Wens, a Dutch foundation similar to Make-a-wish. This F1 make-a-wish was an amazing thing to photograph and one of the more wholesome moments I have had photographing this sport! If you want to know all the Dutch F1 GP behind the scenes or 2024 Dutch GP news, make sure to watch the entire video today!

My 88 year old father and I were there with Ambulance Wens. It really was an awesome day and my dad had the time of his life! The volunteers from ambulance Wens and F1 did all they could to make this day even better!
Hey, thankyou so much for covering this story. My grand dad passed away 2 weeks ago and one of his last wishes was to go sailing one more time after being a sailing teacher volunteer. The wens ambulance made that come true and gave him a beutiful last moment. Again, thankyou for covering it
That's lovely. Fair Winds to your granddad. I can't tell you how much I miss sailing when I allow myself to think about it.
Once you've sailed, it somehow never leaves your body.
It is truly brilliant seeing the patients being wheeled along the pit lane it was mentioned on the F1TV broadcast. Nice work making a video on it!
I enjoyed the "from the front entrance... to the stairs" transition, well done!
Kym asked for a quick round of applause for the people who made this happen but let's also have a quick round of applause for Kym offering a DropBox link so the people involved can have the pictures. 👏👏👏👏👍
We only know about this, at all because of you Kym, great effort, cheers
Absolutely, I have not seen this on any NL website, shame on them and respect for Sir Illman.
I have seen it already on thursday. Depening which Chanel you look at.
@@keeszandbergen6265 Well regardless, Kym's videos are more interesting than Chantal's, who ever she is 😁 so I won"t look at her.
I think it's better that we only know about this through Kym... It would be shameful if F1 would market this with an: "omg, look how good we are! I don't care what you all think, we do nice things for sick people! Look at it!"
@@FuteJur92 Kym is an amazing ambassador for F1
Thank you for highlighting this. Ambulancewens is doing a wonderfull job on various locations in our country. It is great that FOM has approved their visit.
Well done kym, the best coverage of F1 , its back stories the comings and goings othere channels don't appear to have time for.
Much appreciated
Wrong. WE DUTCHIES KNOW ABT THIS cos it’s a nationally known very great initiative which exist for MANY MANY YEARS already!!
This isn’t new!! This is well known in NL. They post daily on their IG account which wishes they are granting that day!!!
Hi Kym, 2025 is secured, 2026 and further could be a problem. By the way, it were not the Dutch sales that were the problem, but a foreign partner who was not able to sell the tickets (prices?). The Zandvoort organization tried to take over the tickets to sell them here, and Overdijk expected to have a solution, but the result is not clear yet. There are enough Dutch fans who couldn’t get a ticket. I enjoy your vlog.
Thanks! Kudos Kym for bringing to light those special people that make a huge difference in the less fortunate fans of F1. It is heart warming to see. Perhaps other people have done this as well, but you are the go to Man to get this out for fans to see. Bless you Kym.
Thanks Terry! It was a touching moment to witness. Something I had never seen before!
@@KymIllman they do things like this almost every day. You are a real men when you donate your money made by this video to there organisation. Instead off only donate the pictures for free to the patients. Making money from people who are about to be dead.

that may be the last positive memory / experience for a lot of those people. nice gesture.
Kym, you have become the voice of sanity for F1 fans..."on ya mate!
You are the best F1 influencer from the track to bring us as close as possible to the race! Started out as an F1 photograph… now a true F1 influencer! Keep up the good work ! Love the channel ❤!
Agreed. Kym is.
Very kind of you to say.
Well. this is super cool. Especially since there are some great photos to share with the world! What a memory for the families, folks and people who look after them!
The piece on the patients getting pitlane access was great. I've been watching F1 since the 1980s and really dislike how the grid is now often full of celebrities that have no interest in the sport - so getting some genuine fans in the pitlane is very welcome.
Kym, thanks for the great video of real fans getting a last wish type experience. They are the ones deserving of a grid walk. I have a very negative view of “celebrities” getting free tickets and paid to attend. Most don’t follow, understand or care about the sport yet there they are instead of loyal fans. Eliminate those a holes and the sport will be better for it.
Simply Outstanding!!!!!!!!!! Great Job Guys !!!
Awesome form from Hulk & K-Mag to take a little time to see these guys. I'm sure they would have been thrilled.
That was very nice of you Kym
So cool to see stuff like this! Must have been a very special moment for the patients to be so up close with these engineering masterpieces after watching the races for so many years.
love to hear such great stories and it’s great that you could get those photos to share with their family! always love the work you do!
what a brilliant idea! Well done AmbulanceWens and the event managers! Thanks for showing this, Kym!
Saw you on Ziggo Sport Race Cafe yesterday evening. Good interview and publicity for you. Keep it going man.
There is still some humanity in the world ..This is good to see 🫴🫵💪👍
Love your posts Kym and this one was particularly moving. Keep up the good work 🌞
Thank you! Will do!
Great idea and thanks for covering it.
Saw you on Dutch Ziggo sport TV last night. Would love to see you there more often.
It was a great show to be apart of!
Hopefully there will be more efforts like these.

This is extremely heart warming 🙏🏻
That is absolutely brilliant
Thanks for another great video. One small correction regarding the pronunciation of 'stroopwafel'. The 'oo' isn't really correct, you have to pronounce that part like 'strope' (like as 'rope' with 'st' added before). And the 'wafel' part, consider it like saying double 'aa': waavel. So, more like 'stropewaavel' in English. Consider this a challenge for your next video! 😂
Thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure!
Great update! I am going to miss K Mag. 😢
Love your channel.
Well Done ❤
Outstanding
BIG 👍to you Kym
Love the video ❤🎉
Love to hear it!
Great pictures of Liam Lawson! Can't wait to see him announced on the grid.
He is a top bloke!
Very nice.
👏🏾👏🏾good to see Grand Prix made a few more people happy. fantastic.
Couldn't agree more!
Thank you Sir! This gives me a bit of hope, I myself am wheelchair bound (for longer parts of my day/life) Maybe I can see an F1 race someday myself, I'm always wondering how accommodations for 'people like me' are.
Thank you for the awesome and informative (behind the scenes) video's, wishing you all the best!
P.S., I've said it before and I'll say it again, the editing is top notch!
P.S. 2, smart having video's ready!
P.S. 3, Stroopwafels, pronounces as: strope wafles, are awesome, I had so many when I lived (34 years) in Amsterdam, eet smakelijk!
This is not for less able ppl!!! This is for TERMINAL PATIENTS!!!
For less able Zandvoort has tickets on the mainstraight. You can buy those.
This is something completely different!!

To be honest...the Dutch GP has a heart...this might be condoned by F1, it wasn't organised by them...
No this was organised by the AmbulanceWens and Zandvoort agreed on it.
4:24 The Dutch Grand Prix is on the published 2025 calendar, from information I can find. It could be cancelled, of course, but it would appear that's not likely. 2026 could be at risk, since it appears that the contract with the organizers runs out in 2025.
They both seem to want to extend the deal but Zandvoort wants a bit less of a financial risk than FOM wants them to bear.
3:35 is that bottas in the background HAHA
The cheapest tickets are €400 so that might have something to do with dropping visitor numbers?
No those prices are normal. Was abt the same last season actually.
No the issue was that 1 company kept 8300tickets, over 3 million euros, not sold. There was a court case abt it that Zandvoort org won!
And the other issue was that it was still in our summer holidays for the region AND Zandvoort had announced way too soon that it was almost sold out so ppl thought there were no tickets left and didn’t even try to buy any.
Multiple reasons. Ticket prices were not outpriced.
No cheapest for race day you mean!
For Friday and Saturday the tickets are much less expensive!!!!
Ya the rich get richer as they don’t have to pay for much of anything! I never understood why wouldn’t you charge the celebs- I’m sure they will be more than happy to pay.. F1 doesn’t need any publicity from any celebs
Mired in the 70s? Is that the 1870s? Lol
😭❤
Celebrities have been invited to F1 races for a long time, I’m sure even before the US boom / DTS. Likely a combination of jealousy or the desire to see racing fans who “know F1” in that pit lane, sparks that outrage. I’m sure some of those celebrities enjoy the sport, just that maybe they’re not very public about it. A whole load of noise over not much really. We can all see that there and many times more “proper fans” in the grandstands than there are celebrities. Just because they don’t get a close up on F1’s social media channels, doesn’t mean they’re not there…. F1 literally cannot exists without us.
Maybe Miami should consider doing the same.
You’re a comedian?

Yes it has. And it's made of cashola.
This is truly great! However it reminds me of that despicable Hamilton fan who faked a terminal illness a few years ago and ended up getting invited to the factory and a race as well, in the Merc garage.

it would really be a shame if Spa were to go every other year
Zandvoort will be organized in 2025. After 2025 it will be every 2 years (1 year Spa the next Zandvoort).
Well done reporting on the special guests. It is truly an honorable gesture by F1 and the organization involved.

Great job by the race organizer, the Dutch government and the local charity organization in doing this and for F1 in allowing it. A far cry from the Las Vegas money grab by F1 as race organizer with its $2K-$3K grandstand pricing.
The Dutch GP doesn't get financial support from the government.
It was a great thing to see!
Duh duh, duhduh - max, thats the right choice
unfortunitly i think there will only be 2 aussie drivers next year
Celebrities and influencers have zero influence on me.
Good on the Haas drivers, shame on the rest.
biggest F1 fan on earth, from Brisbane
That is a big claim but I wiill take your word!
Must be happy with yesterday’s news about Jack Doohan! Nice to see a Gold Coast lad doing well
Good action by F1, hopefully this will be followed up in other races.
I think I saw you yesterday at the Hans Ernst chicane in FP1. I just wasn't sure until I saw this youtube, and I saw you walking around with this gray winter hat instead of a bucket hat :).

The "oo" in "stroopwafels" is not pronounced like "oo" in English is, but more like "oa" (like in boat, goat).
good
Indeed!
great gesture with the patients. Every race should do something similar.
For Terminally ill patients.
it’s a nationally known very great initiative which exist for MANY MANY YEARS already.
This is well known in NL. They post daily on their IG account which wishes they are granting that day! All done by volunteers….. also URGENT REQUESTS, last minute requests are organised.
Its such a great organisation. They post daily on IG which wishes they were able to grant that day. To wedding, home, beach, concert, football match, family reunion, all sorts of last wishes.
This isn’t just for patients…so no not everywhere they can do this.

Kym, just watch this 11 year old upload 🤗
-Who else benefits from the Dutch cycling infrastructure [231]
You forgot the link.
Hopefully Jacks dad, Mick has matured as he's aged because he was previously an asshole. Not very nice to the everyday fellow. A real Gold Coaster...
Yeah while thats great FOM have just shafted every fan creator on RUclips, blocking vids, takedowns and cease and desist from using anything with F1 in it
but cracking down on bunch of content creators? 😑
No Heart its totally corrupt 🤪
They don’t need to bring celebrities- like honestly, if someone watches the race because of a celebrity then they’re only watching that race.
All it does is piss off the regular supporters, when general tickets can be hundreds of dollars at the lower end, while requiring travel for the majority of fans to watch.
Short answer: No
Long answer: Nooooooo
More accurate answer IMO: enormous organisation so in some departments, like those who made this possible, YES! In some, like those who striking down hard at content creators, no.
@@bennylloyd-willner9667 more accurate answer: no
Publicity stunt for F1. They kept putting too many celebs in pit lane and everywhere else. But in the end….its about money
I am soo glad F1 has been listening, a rare event.
I am further encouraged that F1 has been listening to EU regulators that all companies and media organization must employ 5% severely disabled blind people in the business. Severely disabled and blind are clearly defined in legislation. Will Silverstone now be doing the same at Silverstone? How will severely disable blind adults be selected by their local teams, such as McLaren, for a paddock visit ?
Will The Alfred in Melbourne have a visit from Kym who will give them a ticket prior to the event ?
Have you been using your new canon or Sony camera for this Dutch race ?
perfect audience a lot better than stupid celebrities that know nothing about F1

fantastic that all the drivers came out to make a difference ? not important enough?
only a few drivers may be in the pits during thursdays at any time. They might be doing race preparations, interviews or preplanned f1 events like the pre race press conference
Maybe it wasn't filmed?

Lawson will definitely replace Daniel next year maybe even within 3 races if he continues to finish behind Yuki in Quali and the races, only Merc and Sauber with seats left and Merc won't be an option and because it seems like he's he'll bent on staying in the RB family neither is Sauber
oh hell yes! first
Congrats.

Lmao f1 nice to the dudes on their last leg, 30 seconds later were never coming back again not enough money made here.

Although I have absolute sympathy and reverence for the actions of F1 with this Dreams Foundation this weekend, I just cannot shake the feeling this is but a publicity stunt. This would gain far more support if, say, F1 actually made 1000 tickets available per race to be given away to local race fans (ie, only residents of the host country ) for the upcoming race weekend with a good number of trimmings. Prices for these events is fast becoming accessible to the "elite" only, even in the grand stands while those who can afford it ( who, for most cases, have no incling about nor interest for the sport ) get it for free ....... If there were ever a middle finger to race fans, this is it !

Why is it a problem that they give away tickets... they do not take away tickets from others. These tickets are to people that have seats in the paddock and not at the racetrack like paying people. Why do all people today complain about everything and anything... they should take a look in the mirror and not at others.
