I have always preferred the camera over the shoulder of the driver than the ones overhead. I think you get a much better drivers view and can appreciate the energy and speed of the car.
@@denverkweh1642 I never thought of that "paid actors" what a great comparison. As for G forces, yeah similar to what these guys had to endure except they didn't have a load of tech and safety devices to aid them.
This is what F1 should be like. Who would rather watch the current monstrosities over this delight to the senses? Rowing through the gears, feet jumping all over the pedals, slipping and sliding a fire breathing monster. C.mon F1, get your head out of your arses!
Modern F1 cars are utterly boring to watch, they are so stiff you cant even see suspension move, drivers barely do anything noteworthy. Achievinf high speed too easy, driving characterless, sound that displeases the ear. There is hardly any excitement. Further it went towqrds safety and reduction of danger and over-optimization further it got from what F1 should be.
@@itamardesousa1902 because the Lotus was rubbish by 87. Senna managed to get 2 wins that year, but even in Senna & Piquet brilliance, the car just wouldn’t go fast.

That was a messy lap even for Nelson’s standards.. missed a gear into the chicane and hit curbs a few times. Fighting hard with an engine that most of the mid field guys ran and a terrible chassis from Lotus who had no money for development after paying for two highly rated Brazilian drivers for the last 5 years. Though I think they got better value from their Senna years.
Duncan Cunningham : Lotus by this time we’re clearly going backwards in vehicle development into chassis & engine quality. But don’t take anything from Nelson Piquet he proved his quality driving the Brabham team, which was clearly not the best car on the grid with far superior and quality opposition to deal with. He managed 3 x world titles. Nelson probably by his tenure at Lotus did himself no justice in relying heavily on engine power. But he gave it his best and was by far the better driver for it. Lotus enjoyed some good years but made mistakes by not listening to the drivers insight like with Senna & Piquet, who were noted for superior vehicle set ups. This is why Nigel Mansell enjoyed having such a good car handed to him by Piquet. He realised that in 86, that they were using Piquet setups to apply to Mansell. So by 87 Piquet realises he had to be more crafty to get that title with only 3 wins. With Mansell getting 6. Because simply Nelson was about consistency, strategy & smarts. Not about dominance. Nigel thought he could dominate the Brazilian and found it too hard. Because he could only manage to out perform him in some races that lead to victories. But overall he was frustrated to see how Nelson could keep the car performing. Therefore gaining the title.
There is no such thing as overpaying for Brazilians, Brazilians are naturals at this and they are also very good at throwing rotten fruit at English people
@@g.pistore9686 that was horrible but they kept using it all the way up to the start of 1992 until they made what seemed like a much improved car. you can see that Nelson was unhappy with that lap.. shaking his head as he crossed the line.
Old F1 was amazing! Viva o Nelson.
Watching these drivers haul these beasts with a manual transmission is a thing of beauty.
I have always preferred the camera over the shoulder of the driver than the ones overhead. I think you get a much better drivers view and can appreciate the energy and speed of the car.
i guess with the drivers so tuck in inside the car now, this angle has lost its appeal. I agree it was the best!!
Piquet in my opinion is the greatest Brazilian driver!
Why ? Because he was pilot, engineer and developer!
Driver, not pilot.
@@rondee it translates to pilot from a lot of other languages
Gostei do nome kkkkkk
That would be Senna.
Engenheiro ?
Lotus was using the Judd CV V8 with the 5-valve Tickford head around this time.
Was never a big fan of his, but he really knew how to operate the manual gearbox .
When racing was real racing...and the drivers were real drivers.
You're talking like current F1 drivers are paid actors that don't have to train the hell out of their bodies to withstand the G forces

you are the best nelson; fred.
Nelson Piquet one of the greatest pilot in Formula 1.
Good old days.
Amazing how much the circuit has grown up in the last 35 years, the skyline is bare in this video.
Que pilotagem foda 😃😃😃😃😃😃 O cara não usa a zebra da pista pra nada 👏👏👏👏
Grande Nelson Piquet

Incredible lap. Master Piquet. And he didn't get satisfied, the car definitely didn't help
Nelson is a LEGEND! He didn’t like that lap and don’t blame him. That car was crap when he drove for Lotus !
nelson a real master
Fun fact, Max Verstappen's father, and his girlfriend's father were both team mates with Michael
Corria muito Nelsão, olhem só como ele controla a Lotus!
marcia montanari era Benetton
@@alvaro2044 negativo. É Lótus mesmo
Guaraní tem razão a Benetton foi90
Ele tá puto com o carro. No fim ele balança a cabeça negativamente.

Esse carro era uma merda. Nessa altura o Nelsão já corria pela grana mesmo.
Ele só foi correr por grana depois da Williams qdo ele foi pra lótus, palavras do próprio Nelson, na entrevista para Mariana no começo desse ano
@@missilpeludo8813 sí, tienes razón, este f1 fue una gran mierda, pero nelson hizo todo lo posible
he is very frustrating at the end wow
Que tratorzão complicado de guiar!
I don’t think he was best pleased with that lap.
Was that the last 5-speed transmission ever used in F1? Or was it rather a weird gearing? 😅
Where was the 6th gear?
fred from belgium
Bring back the grass!

The slow days
THE SKILLS DAYS. YOU 🤡
@@80sf1fan2 I think he refers the car. That car was so bad.
why did he shake his head at the last corner
Because it was slow lap and he did some mistakes. In other words he knew he could have done better
Brasil falta pilotos compesonalidade.
👏👏👏👏👏👏
aprer jacky ickx
Yo, Y Lotus not so good in '88 n' 89? Same engine as McLaren
The engine in this Lotus is a Judd V8. Lotus made bad cars in those years after Senna's departure.
Awful construction, this car couldn't do it, it did not look smooth enough to be fast.
O Nelson me parece que não gostou nada nada quando terminou a volta.
Probably because if it was a flying lap than it was screwed up at 1:03
Imho
かっこいい。
唐突なオーバーステアに苦労しているようだ
Nota se claramente o Nelsao poupando motor quando ele antecipa as trocas de marchas. Se fosse no limite nao teria nem motor pra corrida
これが世界一のシフトチェンジか。
Dayo!
What a year 1989 was 20 teams, 39 drivers. Christ there were as many customer ford V8 teams as the entire 2022 grid.

The contratct terms of Nelson shown that who pay him was the tobacco company. That Lotus was one of the worst car I drove - words from Jack Stewart!
