      Slavery is Freedom, War is Peace I do watch other motorsport, I am also an engineer at audi. So, first of all, F1 is not for pussies, do you need more balls to drive rally? -Yes, but if you want danger watch gladiator fights or whatever, because not everything is about the danger. Every single driver that is in that car (Mazepin and Stoll included) can destroy most if not all rally drivers. They aren’t f1 drivers, they are the best drivers in the world. Do you know what it takes and means to be an f1 driver and the morale boost the team gets to have an ex-f1 driver in their team. No you don’t so stop bitching about greenhouse gasses, and their yachts, because the first doesn’t matter for sport and the latter is earned. Hell, I spent 7 years of my life studying to get paid a tenth of what they do, but I respect their talent and skill, and so should you.

    • @corruptcentral7992
      @corruptcentral7992 3 года назад +26

      Slavery is Freedom, War is Peace Also you said “in one season of F1 each team pumps out more greenhouse gas than the average person does in 10 years”. So lets break it down, id 1 person does 100% in 10 years, then 10 people do that in 1 year, or 3650 people do that in 1 day. Each team consists of at least 300 people, across the year (season) they only output as much ad 10 average people. I don’t think that is the issue causing global warming, how about you?

    A lot of people seem to forget this man deliberately waited a few years to get into F1 despite having a chance to drive with Williams as early as 2004, just so he could hit the ground running. In his rookie season, Hamilton was runner up by a single point. What an incredible career he's had.

      It’s mindblowing how good he is at managing and using weight transfer to his advantage in order to keep momentum, considering he’s not spent much time pushing a car like that to its limits. Despite his lack of experience with the car he still quickly got the hang of how to best drive with it and where its limits were. What an insane racer.

      @@8-bitsteve500 Actually he might be considered as the best ever in 15 -20 years from now.For a very good reason.The only thing he was missing in my book was Prost's unique abilty to maintain his car and tyres in tip top shape during the race and giving everything in the end winning the race because he was very fast without braking down the car.This was a unique ability of Prost and the reason he was called the professor.Hamilton was more of a Senna than a Prost.Extremely fast and a bit careless and risky at his first two years ,like Verstappen ,but not crashing or torpedoing people.He became more of a Senna and since his last year he became more of a Prost.You see he didn't make a single mistake in the second half of the year,not one!!!He won his 5th championship in a car that was more robust and trouble free,but not faster than Ferrari.He conquered the ability to maintain the car as best as possible while being the fastest man around.He completed the puzzle.He became complete,no flaws.HE MADE MERCEDES FASTER THAN FERRARI.HE.Two years ago at the first half Ferrari looked the better car.You people don't understand that these last 3 years adding this one that just finished Ferrari and Mercedes were extremely close.He made the difference.if he was racing for Ferrari he would still make the difference in favor of Ferrari,and he would still have won these 3 championships.THAT IS A FACT!!!I am watching F1 since 1977.I have seen them all.When he will decide that it is enough he will be regarded as the best ever 15 -20 years from now ,because the legend grows by time.Senna was incredibly talented and a perfectionist,but he was a very dirty driver at his first 5 years.He made Verstappen look like a schoolboy.His legend grew because of his untimely death and made some things forgotten.Schumaher was a very dirty driver also,until the end of his career,while Senna at his last 2 seasons became more humane and didn't send everyone that tried to pass him to the barriers.Schumaher did this until the end.His Ferrari was half a lap ahead of the second car from 2000 until 2004 and at 2002 and 2004 the car would make Maldonado a world champion.There is a very small difference between Mercedes and Ferrari today.nowhere near how easy it was for Scumacher and Vettel,who won 4 consecutive championships because of a rule that the engines couldn't be upgraded for 4 years and so the car that was by far the best with huge difference to the second best car was Red Bull.Whoever was in that Red Bull would have become a 4 times world champion.That is not the case with the Mercedes vs Ferrari of today.

      Alonso wasnt annoyed at Lewis.. but at McLaren... they made the mistake of throwing everything to make Lewis win treating Alonso like some enemy wich in the end costed them the world championship as both drivers ended with same points.. just 1 point after Kimi.. if you saw the last race where everything was decided the difference in performance between Lewis and Fernando cars was utterly ludicrous.. and the multiple FIA incidents (like the crane or the pitstop incident) didnt helped either..
      You have also to consider that Fernando was racing to win the 3rd tittle after winning two on Renault and beating the unbeatable Schumacher.. and that just same as Lewis his life long dream was racing and winning with McLaren
