I hope "LEGO" will learn to make tires with different widths. I'm serious, "LEGO" has NEVER used mixed width tires on an F1 car! They should learn from "CaDA" (Alfa Romeo F1 Team ORLEN C42) P.S.: The soundtrack from NFS: Shift 2 is perfect here!
Actually they have used mixed width tires, back in the 70s and 80s several sets used doubled and even tripled-up narrow tires to represent F1 tires. This was great for alternate models as well because this way the set had like 10 wheels in it.
I saw the 42171 in one of official Lego stores. It is impressive and very cool but somehow I like the 8458 better! There is a typo at 16:08, 8458 was released in 2000 not 2020.
While it makes sense that Lego went with the newest f1 design, it would have been awesome to see the 2020 Car with working DAS steering, would make up for the lack of other features
@@FokkerBoombassNah, it's not like you couldn't change it afterwards. But if that happens less than 1% of the time, it's better to just do it right away
How do u feel if totally leave the stickers unapplied? Still look good as an all black race car? Also 😅, pretty sure that 8458 was not released in 2020. @16:08
Hey Sariel, I feel bad for saying this, but would you please make a lego tutorial on how to use the new powered up widgets? I cannot find ANYTHING on youtube that gives a guide, and I feel ike im not the only one that has this problem. It would be Much appreciated. 😊 Ps. Sorry for offtopic comment.
Not a problem, but I haven't touched the Powered Up app in ages and I don't even know about any widgets, I'm using BrickController 2 with a PS4 pad instead. Perhaps you could give it a try?
I need those dishes in gray. They are pretty much perfect for Tiger/Panther models aren't they? If you put them on the standard ~4.8 stud wide tracks, can you fit two of them besides the center part?
How do you keep the stickers adhered? I’ve experienced them coming off with time, and I carefully clean the Lego parts with alcohol before applying the stickers.
Hey Sariel? I've been reading a lot about the 10337 Lamborghini Countach Quattrovalvole 5000. Are you going to have early access to it? If so, i cant wait to see the video. Im gonna get it soon after the 4th, hopefully
Yes it is. As soon as I saw that complaint I had the exact same thought. Ironic that the large sets that actually are nearly identical were the F1 cars from 20 years ago.
From the top of my head: adjustable rear wing, adjustable suspension, mechanically opened engine bay, like they did back in 2000. Also, nobody is forcing LEGO to release two super-new super-similar cars two years apart, there are dozens of amazing and unique vintage F1 vehicles.
Sad to see them use the same rear suspension setup they used on the 42000. It is designed way to weak and will break over time. I still hope i will find this set for a reasnobale price since i wasnt able to afford the 42000 bavk then
This is actually the first Lego F1 car with a pullrod suspension on the rear axle instead of a pushrod one. Still too little Technic-al innovation for me. Also surprised that you didn't mention that the "steering rectangle" in the cockpit is always misaligned by at least 1/16th of a revolution. (This is a criticism that also applies to the glorious Silver Champion, but it's half as bad there because they used bigger gears.)
Easy pass on another Technic set ruined by blue pins and other visable rogue colours. CADA did a far better job of the F1 Alfa Romeo, that looks awesome on display and far more attention to detail!
“Extremely repetitive and boring” will it be so for those of us that have not built the McLaren F1? I think we are more likely to get printed sidewalls than we are to get different width tires.
Guess the 'Not liking stickers' is over 9000 by now 🤣 And for me, just nahh.. Doesn't really add anything new. Oh and seeing the word Teamviewer on something I'd like to do for fun is also a big nope 😋
Still kinda surprising they went for a car that wasn't very succesful. But hey, at least it's based on an actual car, unlike that silly McLaren. Yet I still don't like it. And no, that's not because of it's price, the lack of functions, the insane number of stickers, or the fact that it's a Mercedes. No, I don;t like it because it includes stickers with my previous employer. And let's just say that's one shitty company. Glad I left after staying there way too long....

that intro with the NFS shift 2 music sent chills down my spine 😁. Love it!
Thanks! Put some serious hours into that game!
Thanks for the review! They might learn a thing or two from CaDA's Alfa Romeo... But they won't :) .
I love my 8458 from 24 years ago!

Using two front wheels to simulate one wide wheel doesn't count)
@@Thinginator but now that we finally have slicks, once you start doubling those up the seam between them gets really noticeable.

Calling an F1 car a billboard on wheels is the most accurate thing ever
I woke up, I saw a new video from Sariel, I instantly pressed the like button.
Good job, you let yourself become conditioned to have a pre-determined opinion with zero critical thinking of your own.

If only it were all black. And not black and red and blue and yellow and orange and brown and lime and white and tan and …
Bro is back ❤

I actually considered that but sadly I'm lacking a controller 😢.
Do we get a 5 second penalty for Ocon if the car crash 😂
Wonder if they considered using the camera mount rather than the knob for the steering?
16:10 8458 released 2020:P
re fewer functions at 16:06, doesn't it have opening engine cover albeit without the dampers?
I need those dishes in gray. They are pretty much perfect for Tiger/Panther models aren't they?
If you put them on the standard ~4.8 stud wide tracks, can you fit two of them besides the center part?

Never happened to me. I've heard this was an issue they solved some years ago.
8458 F1 car was released in 2000 not 2020 wasn't it?
Song name that starts at the new peices section? 3:27

Sorry, I no longer have early access to anything, but I'll try reviewing it when I manage to buy one.
@@searme That's alright. Take your time, no rush 😂
I want them to make a Red Bull one ☹️, these are much better value than the Bugatti and Lamborghini cars.
re similar sets at 14:02 isn't the Williams F1 just Silver Champion but with smooth panels ?
Yes it is. As soon as I saw that complaint I had the exact same thought. Ironic that the large sets that actually are nearly identical were the F1 cars from 20 years ago.
Didnt know 2020 is 20 years ago
which functions do you expect to have in a F1 Lego car?
From the top of my head: adjustable rear wing, adjustable suspension, mechanically opened engine bay, like they did back in 2000. Also, nobody is forcing LEGO to release two super-new super-similar cars two years apart, there are dozens of amazing and unique vintage F1 vehicles.
@@searme like the Ferrari 312 T or the Tyrrell P34, or my favourite, the lotus 78

Yeah Legos getting complacent... Cada are leagues ahead in terms of functionality

That air intake looks like something on a gibbon.

oh my god this is a late review
