Loved the old Hockenheim.
Those trees around the circuit ❤️🌲
Berger's fantastic return and still won the last race of his and Benneton's f1
His first win was with Benetton and it was the first for Benetton too. And the same, as you say, with the last win.
technically Kimi won for the same team in abu dahbi 2012 and Australia 2013

97 had beautiful, fast looking cars. grooved tyres took a lot of getting used to.
They really did, didn’t they? That and the narrow track too, the cars of 1998 looked rather odd.
The tyres weren't grooved in '97. That daft idea was introduced for the proceeding season.
@@influentialgurning exactly. I got a shock after 97 when I saw what was coming...
SEXY - Gerhard Berger really was King of the Ring ! Hockenheimring, OsterreichringMagic moment, after all the turmoil he endured at that time
The B197 was a good looking car and a shame it wasn't more successful. I do wonder how Michael would have gone in the Benetton in 96 & 97.
If the myth is true about Berger, who tested Schumacher's title-winning Benetton and supposedly reported that it was a piece of garbage car (I personally don't think that it happened, and I don't think it was a bad car tbh), then he would've been champion in both years. 😂
But seriously: It's a fact that Ferrari was well off the pace in '96 (for example they were the last team to switch from the traditional low nosecone, which meant a huge deficit of downforce to everyone else), they were very possibly even worse than Benetton. Schumacher however won races with them.
So I assume he could've stretched the title fight to the very last race in '96 with Benetton, like he did in reality with Ferrari in '97.
@@Petidani0330 At that time Berger had an idea how Schumacher managed to reach the absolute limit with the car suddenly breaking loose on bumps. And with a proactive driving style. "Schumacher's sensor technology was totally geared to that, because the car had built it that way from the start, and he could handle it - he probably instinctively counter-steered it before," Berger says in a discussion with Motorsport-Total.com. "It was so hard for me to understand that the last five-tenths of a second are so difficult."
That was also the moment in which he realized what an exceptional artist his then intimate enemy Schumacher was, which he also dismantled his last doubts: "Who had this car so confidently in the border area under control, had to be absolute extra class."

Was bad luck and lack of performance of both drivers. The Benetton b196 and b197 were championship material, just had the wrong drivers. I think if Nigel went to Benetton (after leaving McLaren) he probably would have won the 1996 championship since Ferrari was weak that year, or maybe Prost. In a simple scenario schumacher would easily be the champion if he didn't left the team, but Ferrari paid him a shitload of money to leave Benetton
@@tobias03coimbra52 They lost a lot of personnel to Ferrari. Remember Alesi chasing Senna. It was not Championship material after 1995. Byrne had left. Williams was a lot worse in 1998 after Newey left.
@@Petidani0330Ferrari already had the high nosecone in 94 and switched back in 95.
Last year Champion Frank Williams
Memories...
Love the old Hockenheim
He managed to take the pole while not using the all track wow
Just like Formula One itself, it was decided by the powers that decide things that Hockenheim should be no more. The powers call it improvement, so it must be. What will they improve next?
Mr Jihad Burger doing a fast lap. Shame he retired so close to victory, or was that ‘96?
That was 1996.
Kresljedos oh ok then. Such a talent yet he never went anywhere.
DL 14 went to 10 wins and 48 podiums and as high as 3rd in WDC. this was one of 12 poles by G.
I meant that he was never a world champion even with being in some good cars. (90 McLaren for example). Though having good teammates didn’t help.
1990's MP4/5B was the most problematic car for him, since he was very tall and the car was built with Prost & Senna in mind who were both quite small guys. The result was that Berger was very uncomfortable in the car.
1991 was his biggest chance to win the world championship.
