Lando's humility and success is a testament to his parents' great job in raising him. He's a true talent and a genuinely nice guy.
Hope he makes it.Almost all "freshmen" are seen as the next best thing since sliced bread.
It's unfortunate that parents see their children as investments but that is F1 (and unfortunately many other sports).
Every parents goal should be to make their child's life one step better than their own was. Lando is pretty humble and successful, I'd say his parents did a good job.
Young talented and humble good on you lando can’t wait for your first win
Such a talent and humble guy🫠😊
Always liked Lando’s outlook on life, such a humble, funny, intelligent and for his age knowledgeable about the sport he loves ! Love the fact he knows it’s not a given in F1 to succeed, you have to work at it ! Watch out for him in the next 2-3 years, with the right equipment he’ll take off…….. go for it Lando the worlds your oyster young man !
so humble so mature despite his young age
He's not that young anymore. And honestly, his maturity was something that was lacking. He himself recognized that, I think two years ago.
The thing about parents that invest in thier children. No matter the scale, they should never expect a return and that should be assumed right right from the word go. The reward comes not necessarily in terms of results or money, because those things we cant take to the grave. But the very act of seeing your child trying to live up to their own expectations and stand up to the opportunities that come thier way is the greatest reward of them all.
He’s such a good guy. I’ll be your friend Lando!
Let's face it, wealth buys opportunity.
Most people more or less end up at the same level as their parents.
F1 drivers will soon only be the sons of multi multi millionaires, the resources required to get there are vast.
Lando has no ego which is surprising and is a good character
It's always been sport who's participants have mostly come from well off families.
Not hating, that's just the nature of the sport
Lance Stroll listening to this Podcast: 🤠
😂
🤣
One of my favorite drivers...just a nice guy.
just a very nice guy
I don't think there's anything wrong with having your parents to help you. There's so much stigma against supposed privilege, but the whole point of doing anything in life is to pass it on to your kids. Lando's dad wasn't even a racer, so there's no overlap in that case like there was for Jos and Max - which again, no problem there whatsoever.
The only problem is in cases like Lance Stroll when his dad literally owns the team, and he effectively suffers no consequences for failing to perform to the level other racers might. No hate for Lance, would just respect him 10000x more if he moved to a different team and stood on his own two feet - if only for a season or two.
What is Lance’s crime then in your opinion? Because Lando’s dad had funds to fund him all the way up to F1, Lance’s father has £££ to own a team, and has his son there. I don’t understand the issues people have with Aston Martin, it’s up to the management to decide their driver line up and priorities. No one is owed Lance’s place.
Certainly nothing wrong with it. No kid can go racing himself at a young age, they cannot earn the money they need to go karting. I go racing with my son, on a very limited budget compared to most of the paddock.
@@SuperMarkizaswhat if all the teams were bought by billionaires who just had their sons compete against each other?
@IsBelieving859 would still be the same F1. Probably majority of drivers had well off parents to support their journey up to F1, and others have investors that fund their seats at F1. Everyone's paid one way or another to get the seat. This is sporting field of the rich. Don't see much difference between having a seat bought vs. owning a team and reserving a seat to another nepo driver. Plus, if so much vitriol is being poured on Stroll, what about Zhou..arguably he's even a worse driver with purchased seat. Or would people not care about Stroll if the team was not Aston Martin, but Haas? I think a lot of it is just pure jealously of him having it too good.
F1 is expensive. Be thankful Lawrence bankrolls a team.
Money can't buy talent. My father is extremely successful and I was also privilegedly supported in my early efforts of racing, music etc & it did not matter because I didn't have the chops. Is it a boosted start?, Absolutely. Does it ensure success? Absolutely not. My parents could've paid my way thru the formulas and today I'm A biologist. Landos gifted. He's allowed to own that.
It opens a lot of doors. You need to be able and willing to step through it. But F1 drivers are probably the least talented group of athletes of any sport since money is so important. There are people out there that are way more talented than the guys in F1 but for whom karting or a different type of racing was never in the financial cards.
There are some who were able to make it without money like Ocon and Hamilton, but very few people are willing to take that risk their parents took.
Money can't buy talent, but to get to F1 you need money.
Even Senna in the 80s struggled to get started in F1 and his family were pretty wealthy for Brazilian standards.
@@RJA Not just for Brazilian standards. He is from a rich family. Not as rich as f.e. Piquet, but still rich, by any worldwide standard.
You can get money however in several ways. Ocon's family sold the house and started traveling around, Hamilton's dad started taking extra jobs next to his full time job.
Id kill to go fishing with Lando. Dude needs a real friend outside the sport lol
Hearing rich people who too aren’t comfortable with being judged for their richness is so awkward.
Poor guy is trying to find the words and overthinking everything that will come out of his mouth. We live in a world where the simplest mistake can get you cancelled by the praying WOKES.
@@jeffmattel7867define a praying woke, are they related to praying mantis?
@@jeffmattel7867touch grass
@@jeffmattel7867bro do you even know what woke is, or is just a buzz word you use to feel better about u being a dumb bass ?
@@jeffmattel7867 I was so onboard until the cringe
He's proved he belongs in F1, and thats all that matters now.
4:34 Lance Stroll enters the chat.
Fair play to lando for not letting his dad pay for his seat in f1, it truly is deserved.
He did pay.... in f2 they hired felipe nasr to coach him and they got 2 f2 cars and raced together on a private test in multiple tracks around the world banked entirely by his dad. Source? Felipe Nasr
Dude his dad invested millions in McLaren
@@michaelkillerman tbh guys I just watched this video , I knew his dad was very rich and that it costs millions of financial backing to get an f1 seat generally speaking. I just looked it up and yeah , his dad actually spent around 40 million with McLaren alone for Norris to get his seat, so he is BSing 😂
His dad payed £20million for landos spot as a reserve/test driver then more investment in McLaren to push him into a race seat, same old story with F1
It isn’t just Lando half the F1 paddock have came from rich parents, I ain’t judging nobody Landos a great driver and will have a great career it’s irrelevant of his background he still had to put in the time training etc
👋
Nobody who knows F1 would put Lando in with Mazepin or Stroll.
"ITS BWHOAKEN ITS BRWOKEN"
After Lewis gets his 8th (9th), I will firmly support this guy.
sooooo you are never going to support to him
Jesus...
😂😂😂 Joker
@@AalaFathi LOL i'll give you that
Capiten papaya 😊😊😊🍊🍊🍊 oranges💪💪🏆🏆
Praise to his parents for making him race to F1 (it is a lot of money).
Thing is Lando was a pay driver - his dad paid McLaren $40mil for his first 3 years and as well to be their test/reserve driver. Obviously proved his worth in spades, and helped increase McLaren's stock as an F1 team.
Wealth buys opportunities, not achievements.
Anyone who works hard can get achievements.
Lando seems to be a very nice guy, but actually I'm pretty sure Max and well (and Alex Albon IS definitely a very nice guy as well)
Hiw rich are his parents actually
Rich kids, all my dad left me when he died was a raincoat, casio watch with no strap and a funeral bill.
guy whos not jake has shit questions
Lookin like shrek
At minute 2, what is Lando quasi-crying about?! Some serious teen / pre-teen competition?
i mean, it's still a good piece to separate lando from lance stroll. not that i mean like lando might be just a better driver or anything.
lol did Lando, in the wake of Lewis to Ferrari, entertain an offer from Aston Martin? and this is the apology piece. or aston turned him down and he's like, we'll I'm a better person than stroll anyways
F1 is basically watching rich boys race their toys. Nobody from a working class family will ever be an F1 driver.
Well scripted
I love the guy, but he wouldn't know a normal life if it hit him in the face. Normal people don't have parents on the Sunday Times rich list.
An entitled rich kid, would keep asking his race daddy to swap with his team mates' (multiple) that beat him fairly 😅 stay grounded 😂
Is he not very articulate (given where he grew up)? I can usually understand British southern accent quite easily, but I need to put a little effort to understand him.
His accent isn't quite wholly British sounding, there is a twinge of a foreign accent which I think is because his mom is from Belgium
The mix of accents is certainly interesting. I remember hearing that he might be dyslexic and struggles with some words because of that. I've also noticed from different interviews that when he has to concentrate and think hard about what he says (like here) it gets a bit more difficult to understand him.
If your son wants to be a doctor and you have the means you support him and you choose not to then you are a bad father. It's the same for Formula 1.
Lando’s behavior reminds me of the worst kind of Ivy league frat boy. When you watch his natural interactions he’s really kind of a prick. His reaction to breaking the Hungarian trophy is a perfect example. Great driver though. And not alone in being this type. Ocon too and he grew up middle class.
Ocon wasn’t really from a middle class family, no was Gasly. They’re more lower-middle class.
@@TheFatSandwhichno one in motor sport is lower middle class.
Ocon wouldn't be driving if his dad was just a mechanic, he owned the garage.
@NotKimiRaikkonen Hamilton family...hold my beer. Hamilton's dad could barely make ends meet...this is why Hamilton is hated. He's no right to be as successful as he has been
@@NotKimiRaikkonen owning a garage doesn’t mean middle class money..
Hell, Kimi’s parents were an office clerk and a road builder. That’s not middle class.
Dad made a bad investment😂 this guy is never going to be a success
you're joking right? he is already a success.. He has 13 podiums, that puts him in the top 70 F1 drivers ever.. Simply remarkable at his age, and if McLaren give him a great car he will win this year for sure
He’s already a success
reallllllll
@@maurodebaets
Hes on pace to make 100s of millions of dollars and is starting his own racing team. Its about as good as an investment as you can get out of a few million on karts and travel.
how sad is your life that you gotta hate on someone that doesn't know you exist
