The only thing that has been special this year is the number of collisions / incidents between the title contenders.
@martinusv74332 жыл бұрын
For the sake of some semblance of balance I'm among those who sure hope Max Verstappen wins the title. Hamilton, with so many advantages from Mercedes, etc, has won so many titles in the hybrid era, it's long past time and need for someone else to win. Until this year with Red Bull, no team besides Mercedes (English & German really) could get the hybrid combo right. Hamilton is like the Schumacher of recent years. F1 needed someone other than Schuey to win then. And for the sake of F1 & fairness, F1 needs someone other than Hammy to win.

If not for the VSC at the end, he would’ve probably been on the podium. Great recovery by Max as well, 3 places gained at the start.

It actually used to be a regular thing in F1 to have a title fight until the last race of the year (before the turbo era), but people are behaving as if it's something unprecedented in F1 history, lol. The only thing that has been special this year is the number of collisions / incidents between the title contenders.
For the sake of some semblance of balance I'm among those who sure hope Max Verstappen wins the title. Hamilton, with so many advantages from Mercedes, etc, has won so many titles in the hybrid era, it's long past time and need for someone else to win. Until this year with Red Bull, no team besides Mercedes (English & German really) could get the hybrid combo right. Hamilton is like the Schumacher of recent years. F1 needed someone other than Schuey to win then. And for the sake of F1 & fairness, F1 needs someone other than Hammy to win.

Then the Norris pit stop scared us, but when safety car showed up, we said "thats it". ¡¡HE DID IT!! MAGIA EN LA PISTA DE NUEVO 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸

So you admit that Alonso was lucky. The rest of the Alonso fanboys need to see this.
@@Firebolt1729 Yes.
EL PLAN LETS GO
Mate you are hating Alonso on every video Get a life
Fernando back on podium goosebumps, my eyes watered, my teen years hero.
Alonso was someone I rooted against in his Ferrari years. Now I'm celebrating a podium of his. Time does weird things to people.
As a relatively new Formula 1 fan over the past 3-4 years, seeing Alonso on the podium feels quite special and I'm happy we got to see this! I hope we also get to see Kimi somehow on the podium before he retires!
Not gonna happen
@@jokedok8044 Considering the car...Yeah not a chance it ain't on him tho
I felt the same, was watching Alonso in his Ferrari days and then I stopped for some reason
"You will not have the drink"
@@shepherdrm8486 exactly. Alpha romeo is too slow
This Fernando guy seems promising. I have a feeling he might win a championship or two some day.
Probably 2, and he'll do it with Alpine.
@@hdr_diamondz if he were to do it with Alpine, he'd have 3 championships. He already has 2 championship titles. That's the joke.
@ricky911, you started the joke then r/woosh
I don't think so mate, he's a bit too inexperienced i think, much like that Aston Martin guy, strolls partner
@@Ricky911_ wow you didn’t get the joke that you started
This race was basically about Checo and Alonso
I'm a little disappointed they didn't show Hamilton and Verstappen fans celebrating side by side, that was certainly one of the highlights of the race for me. I'm very happy to see Alonso back on the podium though!
Sometimes Alonso is off the pace, but I say that he has the best racecraft on the grid. He's just born to race, stunning overtakes and brilliant defenses. And he can go long on the tyres.
I couldn't believe how well he drove in the first stint. Keeping everyone at bay by a few seconds at least with his Softs. Then you realise he was saving his tyres the whole time and was pulling out almost a second a lap on everyone behind him until he had over a 10 second gap. The guy is the smartest and quickest racer out there. Put him in a RB or Mercedes and he would be winning as much as anyone
@@tomwells8093 he’s been there. He didn’t.
@@sirskullington9213 He never had a dominant car.
@@AMGU2B i mean he did have a 2007 mclaren, and his ferrari stits were pretty horrible because the car was a $hitbox since Schumacher left pretty much so yea true and not true at the same time, he did have solid cars, never really a Vettel at RB, Lewis at Merc kinda a car
@@mrvelic8523 didn’t he almost win the championship in the Ferrari? And just lost at the last race? I recall him coming *very* close. 2010 & 2012 (just checked) - to do that in the car he had is 👌🏾
Alonso has to be one of the best rookies of all time
Think he could win a WDC in the future! He's got a lot of potential
I have seen this joke everywhere lol

@@Firebolt1729 Is it hurting you
Yes and he still got a long long way to go and many many wdc coming...
Commentator: "Valtteri Bottas has got a puncture." Bottas: "I have a puncture."
I need someone to make an Oblivion meme that says "he has a puncture"
Been watching since 96 seen some battles , and just savouring this immense battle !
Alonso's overtake on Gasly in Lap 1 was aggresive AF.
Gasly's defence on Alonso in Lap 1 was bad AF.
@@supermarktsupermacht3132 gasly didn't do much wrong there, alonso is just much better and maximised the track, great move by him
Lucky podium for him...
@@Firebolt1729 which account is this Ciaron? 124th? Go back to your cave, simple mind.
@@Firebolt1729 ok and? He passed Gasly like a boss, he got an opportunity and didn't waste it.
Man, Alonso on the podium made me feel like it was him in his Ferrari days again. It just feels right to have Alonso up there.
I think you mean Renault days when Alonso won the championship fighting against M. Schumacher in the Ferrari.
The Great Alonso is Back... Keep looking for 2022
Ferrari? Pfft even mclaren is better for him
@@robainscough His Ferrari days, especially in 2010 and 2012 when he fought for the championship, were his last winning days so it can also work
@@geraldmaga5803 Well, his sage seasons were coming back to 2010-2012 when the car was a dogshit.
One of if not the first formula 1 highlight video I’ve ever seen cause it popped up in my recommended and I said why not…… now racing is my life.
Love how alonso tells ocon to defend like a lion, prob the most spanish thing ever 😂
Even this season is already on fire, but seeing Alonso on the podium for the first time since 2014, made it even more special
Better if Kimi is there in Abu Dhabi.
Alonso being on the podium🤣🤣🤣
Best three F1 drivers on the podium today.
@@sandman1347 Give em same cars and watch em go 🔥 one can only dream lol
@@Firebolt1729 I lowkey hope whatever void you have in your life might get filled. Alonso is a legend getting love from millions of people and getting paid so much that several next generations can be sustained with ease. Hope you stop hating and fill whatever void you have inside yourself
Congratulations to Alonso!!! Also that post-race interview was funny 😂 You could see how happy he was. CANT WAIT FOR THE NETFLIX episodes
Ocon was wired 😀
Alonso has earned every thing he's gotten in his carreer... That's why most people rank him in their top drivers of all time. He's earned things that aren't deserved from certain cars and he's almost always consistent about it. He fights like a champion (or lion) in every way and that's why he is one.
And they say losail is going to be a snoozefest. The drivers liked it and not so bad of a race specially in the midfield.
Sergio did supremely well in all the overtakes
Alonso is a monster. Alpine was amazing team this weekend.
Seeing Alonso take the podium brought back so many memories today was a great day , it was one of the best f1 moments
Could you imagine telling Senna "Max is not our race"
Alonso: Tell Esteban to defend like a lion.🦁 Esteban: Miaow!!!🐱
Says the man who let max through without a fight.
@@WarayF1 Why fight Max? He wasn't racing him for the final position. He isn't fighting him in the driver's or the constructor's. Esteban had to fight Perez because he was threatening to steal Alonso's podium.
@@WarayF1 You are a bit of a fool and your family and friends know it
He did fight Checo pretty well tho. Idk why ppl expect him to hold Checo for like 10 laps
@@CharlieNBQ his a merc fan dude, what do you expect
Absolutely incredible performance by Alonso for his first podium in 7 years. Equally amazing performance by Perez, he probably made the most overtakes out of anybody in that race and salvaged a bad RB strategy to take P4. If not for the VSC at the end, he would’ve probably been on the podium. Great recovery by Max as well, 3 places gained at the start.
That 13 overtakes from checo 5 for bottas and 4 from max
I couldn’t be more happy for Alonso but does anyone know why they decided to pit Perez a second time? It seemed like they secured the podium. The best I can figure was they were worried about the puncture but nonetheless seemed kinda pointless
Don’t see how Alonso’s podium was “absolutely incredible” considering Bottas having a puncture, and Perez and Gasly being unlucky
@@Jerrys_world486 they might have been woried about ham taking the fastest lap idk
@@Firebolt1729 well, he was ahead of a Mercedes and a red bull apart from the rest of the field for the whole race in a car 2,5 seconds slower per lap during the first 10 laps than the Mercedes on medium tyres, so I would say is a superb performance for the car he is driving.
Fantastic racing this year!
i’ve been interested in f1 for years but just started watching this race. i’ve got much to learn but i’m excited to get involved
You can give as many penalties as you want to Max and Lewis and still after few laps, they will be P1 and P2. What a drivers!
Its all about cars..Not Driver..
@@jafrulhaque9820 Yes but you can see what drivers means when you compare drivers in the same team *Lewis, Bottas
@@sobczak0712 agree 100%. To say the car is means teams are throwing away money paying millions to these drives. It is an idiotic outlook.
Agreed 75% car 25% driver..... Example... that time Russell was in Lewis' car

Amazing the difference in agility and quickness of the old cars vs the new ground fx cars. Bring back the aero!
Congratulations to Fernando on the 3rd place at the finish line, last podium was in 2014 at the Hungarian Grand Prix 7 years ago Podium and pilot of the day Bravo Fernando👏👏👏
That race turned out to be A LOT better than I expected.

Stewards: Track limits are widened. The Track: I dare you, I double dare you!
Although I have a huge support to Red Bull (especially Max and Checo), I am happy for Alonso that he has his first podium in 7 years... I can sense that Nando is on his prime once more. :))
The thumbnail really nailing not only this race, but also the rest of the championship ✨
Probably
Best since 2012, this season has just been insane🔥
You verified people only comment so that people can see you
@@Firebolt1729 that makes no sense in the context of what I said.
Max would've started to sweat a little from his bra by now
We need to give some credits to Lewis and Max, the way the two are able to pull away from the pack at a consistent pace is crazy (not just today but in several other races this year)
Those two are on a league on their own.
The Alonso simps care about his lucky podium only.
@@venkatakrishnaiahpaladugu9133 This is the dumbest thing I’ve read today.
You mean in every race this year.
@@venkatakrishnaiahpaladugu9133 podium in a midfield car
Checo should’ve hit Nando with the Simon Pagenaud quote“ I WAS COMING!!🤣”
What. A. Race. Aside from those curbs this track is amazing to watch and I’m sure it’s insane to race on. Congrats Alonso! The fight is still on for max and Lewis too
Imagine if Alpine nails the 2022 regulations. Fernando has so much experience and he still has the skills to go for a title fight.
I do believe strongly in Alpine bro, all i wish is Max to leave Red Bull and be teammate with Fernando!
It's all part of THE PLAN
As a Checo fan I'm happy for Alonso, man really deserved it
Agreed, but RB really need to get the strategy right with Checo in the next 2 races!
De acuerdo. Si alguien merecía volver al podio era Alonso.
@@perp1exed I think RB nailed the strategy, if it wasn't for the VSC Checo would have had a very high chance of finishing P3. But also a lot of credit for Alonso great drive for him and just as you said I'm so happy for him as well!
Im fernando fan since 2004 Im so happpppy this year his caameback and unbelievable podium TT lets go third world champion 2022!!
0:25 I fell here...from my bicycle 😂 It was an open day for anyone. One of the best days of my life.
The Hamilton and Verstappen fans, cheering together in the grandstand, reminded us what F1 should be. Made me smile. Go Max!!
Most beautiful sight ever
Agreed! Much nicer to see and no booing either. Always like to think that f1 fans are better than football fans so yeah please get along and enjoy the show.
CrAsHsTaPpEn FrAuDmIlToN Just enough
@@leewest7914 Been a fan of both football and F1 I would have to say that F1 fans are way worse that football fans, at least on social media that is.
Its over for max , no chance now
Checo loves to do a show of overtakes when people say “in some tracks is difficult to do overtakes”.
Incredible highlights 😍
Fernando obviously finally got the rocket ship he has been waiting for. Legend and love this guy!
I feel for Sergio, he probably overtook more people than everyone else combined, but lost 3rd because of an (imo) unnecessary pitstop
Not really, others were getting punctures and if it weren't for the vsc he would have gotten a puncture. Alonso was very close to getting one and perez had older tyres
Tbf its more of a precaution regarding the punctures. RB just playing it safe because they need those points
Bottas as well. Really seemed like he can battle for 3rd or 4th and then...
If he'd have gotten a puncture, bye points. He would have caught up to Alonso if it weren't for the VSC. Unlucky for Sergio but i feel like Alonso deserves the result.
They should have staggered strategy. Go long with Checo, put hards halfway thru the race. Easy podium.
Lets not underrate Schumachers race. Being close to the Williams and Gio for the entire race in the Haas is impressive.
No one cares about him even though his rookie season is better than George's even though they were in a car of equal level...the 2019 Williams and 2021 Haas are pretty much the same Next year, next year
@@adityam849 Yeah If He was British Imagine the hype ...
Yeah, it's impressive but I don't think anyone cares about it at this point tbh...
The only reason that he was close was because the Williams both got punctures
@@shaderedemption5798 he was close before wasnt he
What even impresses me most is that Verstappen is still leading after two dnfs one costing him 25-26 points another costing him possibly 18-25 points. He has do great this season
da frate!
The season is long and had lotsa races..that's it. And he only had two dnfs. Hungary he completed and got 1 point
Hamilton also got a lock
Now things are really heating up brilliant driving 🙌
This race was expected to be boring and without any overtakes. Turns out we actually saw some great driving!
Tbh checo made that race intresting with 13 overtakes and with a bad pit strategy hunting down alonso with more overtakes made this race alot intresting Those late punctures did help create some drama though
@@DooM_-_gAmeR_-_ anybody with a sensible mind wouldn't have done that bad pit stop strategy on checo. Lost an easy 3rd place.but happy for Alonso.
@@janishhasheer5548 I think they were going to try to push til the end til valteri's tyre failed.
If you count the countless DRS overtakes where drivers could barely defend as genuine passes, then yeah, there were loads. Alonso was basically the only one who was actually up for a race beyond turn 1.
The atmosphere for Qatar seemed very, I don’t know, sanitized? Race was decent but nothing about it felt unique or memorable, unlike the last three races that were full of personality.
Two things I didn't expect coming into this season... Alonso and Vettel on a podium. Both did it with their underwhelming cars and on their pace alone. Obviously they needed some other drivers (Merc and Red Bull cars namely) to make mistakes and lose those podium positions, but still, they are both driving complete midfield cars. Although the Alpine this week was amazing all weekend. Arguably the 3rd or 4th best car.
True true. What about the William's front row start in Spa. That's gotta be the shocker of the year.
True Alonso and Seb deserved those podiums badly. Both of em being ex- Ferrari drivers too.
Only if Kimi could get on podium......
@@mohammadamaan5607 that would be very special. Like his victory in USA I think after ages. Atleast we know Kimi will be no unhappier than usual even without 1 last podium.
In Abu Dhabi we're all voting for Kimi as driver of the day.
Wow.... Fantastic race....👏👏👏
I'm following F1 madly these days..Well done lads 🎉🎇
Alonso on the podium was beautiful and very important! Shows all the teams that just because you’re older than the 19 year old rookies doesn’t mean you can’t whoop them!💪🏽😂💯
Stroll really fought well today and a great day for Aston Martin as a whole!
If Seb didn’t have that shocking start then he could’ve definetly been up there with Stroll. Still a great drive from both of them.
💪💪💪 Really great drive by Lance. Nice to see after he's had a spotty year. Aston Martin finishing ahead of both Ferraris & McLarens 💥
YEAH HAMILTON!!!! GET THAT 8TH CHAMPIONSHIP BRO!!!
Laugh out loud! when the tire bombed, it's so hilarious.
That virtual safety car was right on time, watching Alonso get a puncture and lose the podium place would be heartbreaking. It was so intense, what a drive!
What a great performance by Verstappen, from 7th to second place... The start of Verstappen was simply magnificent!
Fernando and Pierre let him by lol
Pérez is 4th 🇲🇽😐
Perez from 11 to 4tg
I lost love for Fernando after he almost DNFed him in one of the first few corners

Nah, 2010 and 2012 was better.
2012 does not exist in your brain
Best one I’ve seen for me. Although I am pretty new to f1 but this is BIG hype !!!!
I think he means in the turbo hybrid era guys...
@@7KCZ The races in 2010 were pretty boring. The championship battle was intense. I think 2021 is better than 2010, but 2012 still the best one.
Magic Alonso. Mega drive mate. Tears in my eyes after I saw you on podium after these long years. Vamos!!!
He is an excellent driver. Proved it again
Dude can drive the wheels off that car.he still has it
"Max is not our race" and Gasly let him through...why is nobody talking about that?! If it was Hamilton who was given such an easy pass the comments section will be filled with all sort of complaints...interesting
Not really. I still remember Kubica on the Renault in 2010 being told "Hamilton is not our target, if you're gonna lose time or wear down your tires defending, just let him pass."
@Futre….that was 11 years ago. That’s the closest example you can remember? You made my point
When I tell you I watched this race but don’t remember it
