#F1 #SaudiArabianGP
2021 is likely the most rewatched season in the past 8 years
Because 2022 was boring. Only rewatchable race in 2022 was Silverstone
@@lukealvarez3744 THE PAST 8 YEARS!
@@lukealvarez3744 yesss!! EXACTLY 💯
@@lukealvarez3744 Bahrain and Jeddah were cool races as well I think, but yes, it was a really boring season and with the way things seem after testing, this may continue.
And then they went and changed the regulations and last year was pretty much unwatchable by the end with this year starting out the same
Lewis: "man my front wing looks damaged" Toto: "you should see my headset..."
😂😂
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
😂😂😂
I'm a Hamilton fan and was fuming but the way F1 showed Toto breaking his headphone in slo mo, I was laughing 🤣🤣
I love how every one said this race was gonna be boring and ended up being a thriller💀
It made me skip a heartbeat 3 times
everyone said this season will be boring and that aged well...
looking back at this max was crazy this race
@@Allblue1 Still won the Championship 😁
@@ayrtonvennkeane9315 😬
The tension and atmosphere in this race was insane, best race of the season!
the timing of the race was perfect... the big fight feel, the stakes, being penultimate race of the season and bringing the points to level... no other jeddah race will ever come close to his one... 2022 was more a tom and jerry fest rather than the high stakes race which this track should be set for
@@Realpreshaanb Agree 100%, I really hope that next season Mercedes get back to how they were and Ferrari sort out their strategy issues, we need a proper fight!
@@JJGreviews If I could I would chuck ferrari back in the midfield and move jeddah back to the penultimate round
I understand this track is supposed to be “fun” and “exciting” but it really isn’t given how dangerous this track is proven by the fact that 50% of the race had a safety car.
True
tbh it hasn't been that "fun". maybe exciting for a bit right before max crashed during quali
Yeah, I think the drivers Love it, it's just too narrow and fast with the lack of runoff.
What a clownshow by the FIA
Scary
Can't believe they left out Toto's headphone annihilation, iconic moment
All I thought was Netflix 👌👌
Insert guy behind tree licking his lips meme here, captioned "Netflix" lol
So toto adds headphones to his list and I thought he tormented tables and counters
I didn't leave it out on my channel XD
yes it was the best rivals race I ever seen on 2021
It really is a tradition to come back here every once in a while
How hamiltons front wing survived that I will never know. As soon as Hamilton hit max I thought the race was over. Can’t believe Hamilton still won after that
Max had diffuser damage, and that’s way worse than front wing damage.
@@proximacentauri3342 Thats why you Dont break check
@@proximacentauri3342 He did, FIA released a report and the telemtry showed he went 100 % brake when lewis was right behind. So what is your definition of break check?
@@proximacentauri3342 The FIA said break check themself giving him a 10 s penalty. But the correct penalty in the rules is 10 s stop and go. So be happy F1 is rigged or Max would be less than a Hollow champion, he would be no champion

Honestly the single most confusing GP I have ever seen…
I'm with Netflix on that one
Don't let that distract you from the fact that Max stormed off the podium after collecting his Trophy. What a class act!!
Verstappen would cry because he messed his manicure. Edit: The original comment before edit was op saying how they were hoping Hamilton and Verstappen exchanged blows.
@@mizisawesome8442 yeah lewis instead is so classy when he shoved him off the track after Max let him past for the 3rd time...
@@mizisawesome8442 lol u in all the comments trying to stir drama
The biggest question of this whole race is How did they manage to make the highlights only 7 minutes?
Because half the race was under a safety car? 😬
They didn’t. This is only a teaser to go and watch the race.
I ask this question every other week
german highlights -> sky sport hd preis von saudi-arabien -> 14mins 🙂
I mean this came from the same people that made the 2011 Canadian GP highlights only 7 minutes long
This race highlight doesn't do just how crazy this race was justice. All the starting and stopping, the waiting around, the close calls and contacts, the odd bargaining, etc. This was an anxiety producing race.
This was the spiritual sequel to Baku 2017 no one was prepared for. Incredible drama between HAM and VER. The last race will be massive
Hamilton has already cheated several times too, in this weekend...2 impeding in free practice and 0 grid penalty; hits Verstappen (get pictures from above, he had space to overtake him) and got zero responsability anyway....it's unfair, like max maneuver (brake test). Then, 5 seconds for gaining advantage in turn one: if you see the replay max lost the car and in that moment was ahead Lewis...and both went out in that turn...
@@marcozitelli this is so true
@@marcozitelli and Mercedes is cheat in Saudi see bottas slowing down verstappen in safety car and gap to lewis is big
You called it mate👍
@@marcozitelli oh how misinformed you are 😂🤦🏼♂️ for one Hamilton didn’t impede anyone. 2, max brake tested Lewis, as proven by the data and additional penalty after the race and 3 max deliberately cut T1 to keep Hamilton behind using the same tactics as in Brazil. A crash would only benefit one of them and it wouldn’t be Hamilton
This is a 5 star and 1 Star race at the same time.
It was a thriller
Give it a 3 😁 😁
Well said 👍😭
So basically a 3 star race
I’m a 5 star man
Man I feel for Ocon. He had a perfect start despite his contact with Tsunoda, followed the right strategy, had a wonderful second start, then lost out to the title contenders, but managed to keep his third place until the very last hectometer… He deserved that podium more than anybody today, and maybe even DOTD. And his battle with Bottas in the last two laps wasn’t shown for a single second, whereas anything else was happening???
He deserved DODT, shame it was rigged as always by the Verstappen fanboy army
Me too, idk why the people didnt chose him for driver of the day
@Riccardo Max was more lucky than him .
the pace difference with the Mercs is stunning tho. He got eaten by Bottas right in the end
I noticed that Ocon's and Bottas' battle wasn't being shown. Poor tv direction again.
Hamilton is a monster when is under pressure. This guy is unbelievable
Note never put Hamilton under pressure Max was at the receiving end 😁😁
It helped that the Mercedes at this phase of the season was the best car on the grid especially on sunday. All Red Bull tried to do was to limit the damage. Crazy season tho.

Watching this replay in 2023 is more exiting than the coming season
it is true but not to forget, i assume this is the most chaotic race ever in last 20 years or maybe when we consider after this race the championship contenders are equaled their points on 369.5-369.5 the most chaotic one ever?
Formula 1 drivers experience up to 5 gs in a corner, Toto Wolff’s headset experienced 50
And red bull has to buy him new ones as a penalty
Still less gs than Max got in Silverstone. 😜
Would love to see his reaction when Max wins the championship
like Max in Silverstone
Toto put it in hospital for precautionary tests. Verstappen fans will keep reminding us of this fact
The fact they managed to condense that race into 7 minutes is impressive.
And I hate it
Not the best race highlights though.
They left out the Vettel/Tsunoda and Vettel/Raikkonen incidents as well as the VSCs, which is kinda weird.
They cut out some important parts
Felt like I watched it for 4days straight 😂😂
4:10, love how Lewis actually tried to make the corner while max don’t care. Tells you all you need to know about whose the more sensible driver
Max is not a sensible driver at all
you can see in the next shot how lewis even turns his wheel in the opposite direction to prevent a collision with max, the stewards in this race clearly had shown preference to Redbull

What a thriller! But anyway.. let's make Kimi Raikkonen the driver of the day next race! I want hear that interview 😁
Max's fanboys have run out of copium
Keep crying. Max had the pace to take off from Hamilton, but was prevented in doing so by constant VSCs. And all things equalized, he should have went into this race with a 51 point lead at the minimum, Baku+10poins, silverstone+18 points at least, hungary+15points at least, plus 8 points he already had.
Plus he did not have a dominant car for the majority of the season. Bottas was 0.1 s off from Hamilton's quali time, while Perez was trailing 0.4-5s on average to Max's times.

@@bondonekat2085 nope, two nickels don’t magically turn into a dime
when was the first time
this race alone is better than 2023 season.
I just love how Bottas did the same trick to Ocon as he did to Lance Stroll at Azerbajan in 2017
The TV directors during this race must be high on shrooms. they showed Lewis's last lap instead of the Bottas Ocon fight.
I think that is contractual.
Huh? They showed it after that though 🤔
Camera selection was oftentimes awful this race. And when the right fight was on, the cameras were often zoomed in too tight and swerved too hectical. But at least the director didn't cut to the audience in the middle of a fight
the thing is after max got penalty and his tires were no longer on condition, it was not interesting at all how hamilton was driving. he was just by himself driving to the finish line
@@irfannoreplys6312 yes. But it's not the same You can watch almost anything during replays but their job is to show as much as thrilling live moments they could manage
Idc about who did what, this race had something we never saw before: Toto actually smashing the Bose headphones!
Ye he usually holds himself back but I don’t blame him this time🤣💀
I loved that they got that in slow motion, it was just the cherry on top truly
I was dying of laughter when he smashed the headphones LOL

They been letting him get away with stuff for years
@@Mark-oe1dfgetting away? He got a penalty lol what
Now that I'm watching this back, only Lewis Hamilton could've kept his cool like that dealing with Max driving like that. I believe anyone else would've lost their cool post race.

@Dacia Sandero guys your dad is nowhere to be seen I guess
That why he's the goat he keeps his cool that's why he is F1 basically
totally agreed. I'd not have such a patience as Lewis did with Max.
Only one of the lunges was outrageous from Max. The rest were not entirely his fault.
How Hamilton's front wing survived the whole race I can't get my head around that
German engineering
Go to Berlin.
maybe that frank williams tribute decal had something to do with it
And ham driving faster with is broken! MEGA
His determination to win, kept it intact.

@@hard2bear3110 who doesn't pass a slow car? Someone that needs to be instructed to pass😆 if there is only one car on the track Hamilton knows how to hit it lol.
This was Hamilton’s last win, and Bottas’ last podium
2021 was defo the best year in f1 history
There were a lot of things that happened in this race, but why did we have to watch Hamilton’s entire last lap when Bottas and Ocon were having an incredible battle.
Because he is the best at the job. You watched the GOAT
deal with it
Gotta agree here OCON was the one to watch and he had a thrilling and great race would've been much nicer to see and hope for him to be battling and making it right to the line
Because that's what happens with every race highlights, the leader is shown at the last lap. Stop hating
Because a mistake from Hamilton can see him into the wall just like Max did in Quali. This track offers drama on every corner .
The most important question however: Has the Bose headset survived the special pressure test?
51g Toto 51g
After this incident, they are producing an extra rigid one called the Bose "Pit Fury", or so I've heard
it will not finish the championship
Need a new engine
Toto has been handed a €50,000 fine by Bose
This is definitely one of the craziest F1 championship battles and seasons ever! What a year I picked to get into the sport😂😂
The last races for Max showed that he cracks under pressure
When the other guy has an unbeatable car that allows him to change engine each race and still win it is normal to feel the pressure
@@thomasmaiolino mate, with all due respect specially since I'm a LH fan. I have to say this. Max gave up since Lap 10 of abu dhabi gp.
Yes, just look at his start in Abu Dhabi. Got passed by lewis despite being on the softer compound, had a terrible reaction time and almost got passed by checo but he backed out obviously. He bottled it and was saved by a last lap rule change
@@andrewmelton2686you understand right that you’re on a lot of pressure, last race of the season against a 7 time world champion who has a better car, give the man a break
@@blackout11ngl not a fan of both But that Mercedes was unbeatable in last 4 races, max drove his socks of on that car to get it where it was Especially with the bad luck he suffered from Mercedes drivers that season And when the overtake Lewis did on him was illegal, it’s no wonder he felt demoralised after lap 10 in that gp But kudus to both driver they both drive incredibly and both deserved the championship Shame only one person gets it 😂
I’m convinced that Lewis’s front wing is made with tank armor material
And RB claim that these wings deflect yeh?
I have watched and re-watched that incident and it does not make sense to me how this Merc is still alive and not only that but drives home without a front endplate but with a 6sec lead. I guess the car at one point got just so afraid of Lewis and Max being close that it gave it another 3%
That’s Carbon fibre for u mate
Crazy Max needs rollbar against
Merc seems to build wings and suspension components to a much higher strength. RB builds breakaway cars.
Toto's reaction after the crash with Verstappen should've been included in this lol. pure entertainment and nuts this race was.
toto's probably embarassed and liberty media doesnt want to risk getting an email lol
Will be nice
also max reaction on the stage. pure gold! perhaps was rushing to plan how to crash lewis at yaz since his last 3 attepmts from saudi arabia failed.
This the race max showed his true colours together with the fia

@@Lichboi1012 nah I think it will be covered but I think the drive to survive series will be about Hamilton’s perspective
Why
Is it going go to be so long? What happend what very important is
That series has become boring, their sequencing and even incidences capture is poor...but we will see.
Can we just acknowledge the fact Ocon hold off 3rd place for nearly the entire race in a bottom midfield car? He should’ve gotten DOTD
DOTD for sure, but bottom midfield car? This car is absolutely rapid, maybe not in quali but in races for sure the 3rd best car the last 2 races.
Does 5-th car can be considered as "bottom midfield"
Especially as Verstappen was definitely not driver of the day after that
Almost back to back podium and son calls it a “bottom midfield car” like it’s a Aston or somethin lol!
He wouldn’t even be in the running for third if Bottas didn’t intentionally slow down Verstappen
5:50 did that Mercedes just came out from the tv?

@@modr0160 yup LOL
Shame the highlights doesn't have any coverage of the multiple debris, the crash of Vettle and Raikkonen, mid field overtakes. This is just a highlight reel of the top 3 finishers.
Because no one cares about the mid field this late in the season, the championship is still up for grabs for someone other than hamilton and in a different car for gods sake.. we want to see or atleast I want to see someone else win the chamionship that isnt in a mercedes car.
They cut out some important parts here.
Watch sky sports Germany they posted a 18 min video but idk if it’s available in your country
Thats why you have F1 TV, there is always a 10+ min highlights
facts this should be at least a 15 minute highlight. just embarrasing that its only 7 minutes
3:03 another chance to show how crucial the halo is. That would've been Mazepin flying face-first into Russell's diffuser wow
True
yeah
One of the best races in one of the wildest seasons of all time.
can we even call Ocon lucky? he seems to know how to dodge when everyone is crashing arround him to take the lead, what a lad, im still a bit sad he didnt got the podium
Same. All the fuss around Lewis and Max and I get it, but I was so mad that Ocon lost the podium just at the final...
or even if hes sandwiched knocking off 2 3 cars he still manages to keep on !
He's a top driver for sure.
He even dodged the producers interest, amazing.
If Max fans didn’t rig the voting, he would be DODT

@@sadadsadada3014 where?
@Kevin S max is the kinda guy who thinks a wins a win, "that's racing"
No one mentioning max trying to push Hamilton into ocon at the 2nd restart. His shenanigans ar the first time of letting Hamilton past was a stop go penalty, or 25 seconds back in 2008. By all accounts max should have been either DSQ for the brake check, or had even more penalties. The guy was a menace all race long
😭😭😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nobody mentioned it because there was nothing wrong with anything that happened on the second restart....

At least you are in the same position as Michael Masi! 🙄
Just say the results and throw the problem to the other person lol
I mean it's not just the tires, Hamilton had a front wing change before also that saved his race. Red flag is usually rare so it doesn't happen often but not in this track apparently.
I wouldn't allow pitting under the safety car. It's a lottery depending on track position.
What if people drive over debris from a crash that happened and basically NEED to change tyres? In that case it would make sense.
chaotic race that's for sure but I was pretty frustrated that they focused on hamilton's last lap rather than the completely INTENSE Bottas-Ocon battle
swiss tv didn't even mention bottas overtaking.
Same old disgraceful live broadcasting
As a friend mentioned, its due to sponsorship deals :(
The channel I was watching focused most of the last lap on Bottas/Ocon, only leaving them to show LH crossing the finish line and then right back to Bottas/Ocon at the line. After all, I'm sure you must know that the championship race in any sport always takes precedence over anything else.
F1 Is the only sport where people care about 3rd place.

@@sumerrana6805 They said they want a 15 minute long video not a 7 minute video…ayo what don’t you understand?

seriously dude
The fact that Hamilton AND Verstappen both finished the race (and did so in 1th and 2nd twenty seconds ahead of everyone else) is beyond belief. They switched positions 8 times during the race, made contact at least 3 times and were running on a track best described as an "obstacle course". There's probably an argument to be made here that the best drivers manage to keep their car in one piece even under the most violent circumstances.

Regardless of being either a Max or a Lewis fan, you've gotta agree on the point that the decisions made by the FIA are just a mess. The way that situation was handled was just sloppy.
@T B yeah I agree with the outcome, but the process of getting there was messy was my point. The only issue I probably had was why did max get a penalty for going off track here when he didn't get one in Brazil? It's just Inconsistent and frustrating. And the fact Mercedes only learned about Max letting him by at the last second was weird and probably caused the incident.
Huh? I was actually thinking the opposite.. That their decisions today were fair and accurate.
@T B decision making was just off by a lot, red flag after 3-4 laps of safety car? that's just indecisive af
@@mawwalmazie agreed. I get that they wanted to see if they could get it cleared up without a red flag if possible, but the nature of the track sort of necessitated one. Calling a safety car and then after half the field pitted calling a red flag, effectively negating that pit stop was a questionable decision
@@t.mcgarry4 I think you're right on the money with the cause of the incident. Had race control sent the message out to both teams simultaneously to inform their drivers what was going to happen, the incident would not have occurred.

It doesn't matter what the FIA decides. There will always be someone complaining. The f1 community is becoming very toxic and they're never happy or satisfied. Funny how these fans just started watching f1 this year and they suddenly know the rules and regulations better than the stewards themselves. They ruin the vibe instead of just enjoying the season.
Amazing that I had to go to the race highlights on youtube to actually see the ending battle of Bottas and Ocon.
Watched the full race live! But I've rewatched these highlights like a dozen times! Epic season!
Can we plz get extended highlights? This race was insane from start to finish, besides the red flag periods lol
Sky sports F1 has extended highlights I believe
F1TV has 30 min highlights
@@alexanderstormdahl2562 🤔
Stop moaning im sure you seen the whole race allready
@@shane-irish why you being a melt
Whoever you support, you can’t deny having the title go down to the last race level on points is amazing
agreed
Going to be such a mess though, Max has the championship on wins at the moment so he has nothing to loose. I can feel a senna Prost happening
Finnaly the abu dhabi organisers get the drama they wanted
Fanbase is too toxic. Next race there gonna is be a meltdown regardless of who wins
@@coreyrod yeah I'm not gonna bother tho..... It was amazing even if Hamilton wins, which i would not like too much, Max is gonna have his possibilities again and the season was just mind-blowing
1:28 had 2023 Canadian GP stewards seen this, this would have been a 5 second penalty for unsportsmanlike behavior.
We need extended version of this highlights cause when I watched this so thrilled
No matter who you support, it’s going down to Abu Dhabi now, and that already makes this the best season of the turbo-hybrid era. (I know Nico vs Lewis went down to Abu Dhabi in 2014/16, but seeing battles between teams is always more special).
Abu Dhabi better be an improved racing track or else
This one is much better not only because of the different constructors but also because neither of them can hang back and cruise to 2nd place and the championship. They have to beat each other on track. My only concern is Max is leading because of the number of wins. I’m worried he’ll crash Hamilton out of the race.
I’m expecting a turn 1 crash between the, tbh
@@jsphblw that’s what I’m thinking he literally said “I have the advantage going into Abu Dhabi”, worried he’s just gonna crash into him “accidentally! and win that way
@@davidwilliams3659 that would mean that Max wins
I just don't understand how Hamilton's front wing couldn't tear off. Vettel's car would have done three backflips.
That's because Aston martins are stuck together with 5gum
Wait why am I laughing
paid actor
Because Max didn't touch it with his hands, only with his car.
😂😂😂😂
Who is back here after 2 years? I am. And the reason is because I still can't fathom that this would be Lewis Hamilton's last win..
Hard to believe it was his last win yeah,but to be fair he won the next race if the FIA didnt fix it
Funniest race ever
Mans finished without the fastest car
I have watched this more than 30 times and will watch more than 100 i think.
This channel should produce the 20 minute highlights. Who is with me?👋
They actually have a feature on the F1TV for “Race in 30 mins” It’s really cool, but it’s paid ☹️
@@rlara5 I can’t even pay even if I wanted to. Not available in my region.
In UK channel 4 does highlights which are like 1 hour, prob can get it with a vpn
Wouldn’t have been long enough for this race 😂
Depends on which race...some race enough with 6-7 mina
I was gutted for Ocon when Bottas passed him right before the line q.q
literally he deserved the podium more than anyone today
Samee
Director did the great job not to show us anything... that was perfectly played to hide one of the best duels of the race
I think this was the 2nd time Bottas has robbed a podium at the finish line?
@@toptopovaxiv they have really been in a decline lately but last 2 years it's been a disgrace
Now this is what you call a race! F1 is exciting again
But for how long? What if Mercedes apply the lifespan trick next year? That gamechanger might brings us back to the previous 7 boring years.
Max needed to give the position back to hamilton because of gaining advantage, but Lewis could stay on P1 in Abu Dhabi.. Crazy decision
both of them were maxes fault
@@sancakli454 is trying to Catching up a foul? This is called racing.. ok, according the rules, jeddah was max fault, he needed to give his position back, but in Abu Dhabi, the moment of steering into the corner, Max wheels were in front of lewis wheels, so he was technically already passed Lewis..
@@tw64 He almost stopped when taking the corner in Abu Dhabi. Who was going to be blamed if they crashed?
@@walter1824 depends on who is steering into who...
Max wanted to DNF Hamilton because then he would have won the championship
This season has been LEGENDARY
@@David-oj7ro Any proof for your claim?
@@David-oj7ro 🤡🤡
Legendary for many reasons...
This season will be recalled to many grandkids in 50 years time for sure.
It's like Netflix payed the teams to give them a film worthy season
This was a rollercoaster of emoitions for both Lewis and Max fans
Max is a racer - LH44 thinks he's grown beyond F1. I can't wait to watch his fashion empire implode in a dustcloud of bad taste.
Cheering for Max to win the title and also not hating Lewis for the obvious reasons and recognizing how strong he is *This race made me fuming angry on both of them*
A real s#*t show. Race director and stewarts are clowns!
@@somguy728 😂 the fia has no pull for consumers.
@@somguy728 your driver this he could lead every race he loves driving like if he is playing bumper cars and he and he is too much aggressive as u can see the fia gives him a 10 sec time penalty for the next race and they took away two points from the championship look who is talking now 👀👀
At the start literally the formation changed
I love the 21 cars they were so nimble
