kas _ agreed. Perez is by far better than Ocon and he’s more knowledgable from having more experience which is what small teams also want to help car development.
@@Ben_Mayall exactly, take 2018 Brazil for example, checo never would have faught for that position but Ocon was greedy and ended up looking like a clown
Wow, Kobayashi is such an underrated driver. His throttle, brake and steering inputs are immaculate. You can see how he clearly understands the grip balance of his tires. At 0:40, you can see his front right start to lock up, but then, he modulates the brakes to stop locking, just in time to eliminate understeer going to the turn. Enjoying these Kobayashi clips
the moment of understeer is more a result of the cars of the time, from 1998-2016, the cars would understeer and you would still gain lap time , locking up before isnt as severe pace-wise as it is now 2017-present
I'm glad to see other commenters think he was underrated and low key rooted for him. I always did myself and I thought it was totally a shame he got pushed out of F1.
Really sad to be honest what is happening with the F1 especially the lower team's drivers , so many piss poor drivers , there is no skill at all Pathetic
Gutierrez reminds me of a B. Hartley and vice versa. Fast on lower categories when u drive against your age group. Even F2 might be a cakewalk like we saw J.Palmer winning everything. Vandoorne as well. But when u step up to F1. There's best drivers from last 20 years
@@JonsterMonster Woah there dont include Palmer in that list, he took 5 years to win the title compared to the average 2-3 and underperformed massively with the same car as a regular midfield runner while Vandoorme won the title in his debut season and had to drive a arguably different car to that of a two times world champion for which everyone shat on him, he truly deserves to succeed in FE after so much media bs
sad to see Kamui exit formula 1 at a very early stage in his career. if he could only have had the sponsorship money, he couldve reached his potential.
Naturally I guess idk when I sim race sometimes I do it too when I know there’s an upcoming shift on the straight I’ll extend my hand like that and shift at the moment idk it just feels more powerful
If this was 2007 or 2008, Kobayashi would've done so much better, especially in a higher team. These cars just didn't have the aero to keep up with the drivers. Yes, they were drivable, but they were barely driver-centric.
God knows the FIA hasn't exactly got the best track record (ha) when it comes to selecting which venues we race at, but let's take a moment to be grateful this boring stop-start 90-degree-angle paradise of a track is no longer on the calendar.

One of the most underrated drivers to ever be behind the wheel of an F1 car. Glad he’s in WEC now.
he had so much potential
Anthony Mcgill
Yeah
It he signs in Mercedes he could be closer to HAM
A good driver. Shame he lost his seat only because he didn't have enough money to provide.
Modern F1.
@Tzeff NL Racing nahh Perez is better then ocon imo

Wasnt underrated, everybody knew and talked about his talent back then

He shifts up like he wants to destroy the pedal
He was a good driver though.
he just thinking the rear is so shit on this car is there any point in upshifting
Pedal?
paddle shifter*
Sorry native speakers, english is not my first language
I Love 2012 Sauber car
Pedro Henrique - F1 e Futebol
That was a good car
And Perez with a good car...
Yes :D
Who doesn’t

From an onboard perspective this car looks so good.

from a outboard perspective it looks boring
this track was fanatic
Gregory7877 yeah it is sad to see it abandoned today :(
Absolutely gorgeous track but when put up against Catalunya there was no way it would win.
@@sporadicmusings5822 Good track in terms of hotlapping, the racing there was awful.
@@whoasked9500 the race in 2012 was awesome actually
@@gustavocardoso8187 Oh yeah, one single good race, four bad ones.
Loved this time in F1. Always rooted for him.
F1 threw away a driver with *much* potential and now he's driving LMP1 and setting record laps at Le Mans🤷🏽♂️
I want him to race for Ferrari again
@@kazukinishimura526 again?
@@k1980 2009 sauber used ferrari's engine.
@@biteme9505 right so he raced for sauber.
@Tony Branson yh nobody gives a toss
After Kamui had to leave Formula 1, he just said “fine, I’ll go set record-breaking laps at Le Mans instead”
Contrary to popular opinion... I love this street circuit!
agree
we have 4 boring races here i think that f1 never back here
@@master-kq3nw The track is abandoned anyway
@@Tuckton yes maybe one day back in f1
@@Tuckton jerez in f1 i think is better than barcelona
you have a weird collection of high quality onboards
If not for the lockup at 1:21 this would have possibly been the greatest lap of all times

This track was amazing !!! We miss !!!
no this was bad circiut
@@master-kq3nw u mad? brah
@@master-kq3nw no, this is a ver good track
Amazing circuit , amazing Kamui
I love this track
Wasted talent. Sacked for Gutierrez 's money. BS.
Agree
Sadly Sauber were in a bad place, so it wasn't really much of a choice. Sadly no other teams picked him up :/
Really sad to be honest what is happening with the F1
especially the lower team's drivers , so many piss poor drivers , there is no skill at all

If only Kobayashi paired with Hülkenberg in 2013, Sauber could have been way more up in points and standings 🙄
True, but I think Sauber got a huge discount on Ferrari engines, or even free ones, if they had a Ferrari protege in their other seat.
I’m curious to see what his Cup Series ride will be like this upcoming Sunday.
Great lap by a great driver on a great circuit.👌
love this track :D
Koboyashi was the driver I vaugely remember from years ago, the one reason I remember that name is because he was a good driver, and boy he was.
The last sector of this track is completely amazing.
This circuit really needs to return to the F1 calender.
I vistied it 7 years later. Took a ride on it with my bike
I love how he middle-fingers with every upshift
sad to see Kamui exit formula 1 at a very early stage in his career. if he could only have had the sponsorship money, he couldve reached his potential.
Cool I hadn't saw this : D I liked Valencia circuit too
underrated track and driver!
Curious to see what kind of attention/impression he will make at this upcoming Cup Series race.
the overtake king himself
0:50 why he shifts gear like that?
Naturally I guess idk when I sim race sometimes I do it too when I know there’s an upcoming shift on the straight I’ll extend my hand like that and shift at the moment idk it just feels more powerful
Precision? 🤷🏻
valencia st circuit gives me that miami int’l autdrome & sochi autodrome vibe
This wasnt a hot lap.
But anyway, Kamui is fast driver.
Really good at WEC
Koba 🇯🇵👍
My guy just beats these cars and pushes them to the limits, especially on overtakes. No f**** given at all, good racing.
If this was 2007 or 2008, Kobayashi would've done so much better, especially in a higher team. These cars just didn't have the aero to keep up with the drivers. Yes, they were drivable, but they were barely driver-centric.
When Chelsea sponsored an f1 team lol
Valencia was a good circuit
Shame he didn't have longer
Most F1 like this track
rip track
These cars seem so slippery compare to today's car
Such a nervous car!
Guys like Kamui were good for f1 it's a shame he didn't get better opportunities.
What's with the exaggerated shifting? Personal technique or did he have to be that aggressive?
Fun
Personal preference
Looks like he is « charging » his fingers before upshipting. It’s funny
Were the paddles that heavy he has to lift his finger that high or is that just a thing he does?
God knows the FIA hasn't exactly got the best track record (ha) when it comes to selecting which venues we race at, but let's take a moment to be grateful this boring stop-start 90-degree-angle paradise of a track is no longer on the calendar.
time?
And to think we are still suck with crap track like Monaco when we should be brining this back.
Kobayashi is KAMIKAZE
What an awesome track , shame it’s de commissioned
i dont like this circiut difficult to overtake ,
I could do no worse
Boy, that circuit was boring
why is he upshifting so ostentatiously?
