[@lukedanielgalon1596]

Never seen a pun on a name before.

[@SiVlog1989]

By far the weirdest has to be Canada 1973. The first time a Safety Car was deployed in the history of the sport, led to chaos on the lap charts. The driver of the Safety Car waved drivers past, one after the other, until they picked up Howden Ganley. Ganley definitely wasn't leading, but nobody could agree who was. When the chequered flag was waved, nobody knew who won, due to the scoring error (there was no electronic timing in 1973). It wasn't until each team sent each of their own lap charts to the organisers, attempting to untangle the mess, that a result was declared. Peter Revson was declared the winner (the last born and bred American driver to win in F1, Mario Andretti was born in Italy), outgoing world champion Emerson Fittipaldi was declared second (despite Colin Chapman believing his star driver had won) & Jackie Oliver was third. However, due to the scoring error, who knows for sure who actually won, since they were originally going to give the win to Ganley?

[@leggera1]

It’s funny, I was reading about that race just the other day. Ganley apparently always held the belief that he was the rightful winner, but who knows really.

[@chlcrk]

Japan 2019 was pretty weird, given that the chequered flag went out a lap early before Sergio Perez and Pierre Gasly had a crash that put Checo in the barrier, then made even weirder by Leclerc getting a post-race penalty, then made even more weird by Renault having both disqualified and (in one side effect) making the Leclerc penalty irrelevant

[@HeavyMetalGamingHD]

And leclerc driving with a broken car and a part hitting lewis hamilton + the almost jump start by seb. so much drama. And I forgot the sunday qualy, because of a taifun

[@pedroneves4465]

Ferrari were masterminds when it came to strategy during the Schumacher-Todt years. That race in Silverstone was some 5000 IQ move.

[@juhosten3463]

Also didn't hinder their progress that FIA were basically their teammate back in the day.

[@flyingpanhandle]

@@juhosten3463 Indeed. Many call them MAFIA for helped Mercedes. But they weren't nickname Ferrari International Assistance for nothing.

[@dschoene57]

@@juhosten3463 Not quite. The days of the FIA as Ferrari International Assistance were much earlier - in the 80s, when the Commandantore was still around. People still said it in the 90s, but it wasn't actually true anymore. Ferrari had lost most of their political clout when Enzo died in 1988.

[@rogerioit]

Max verstappen didn't stop out of precaution on 2020 British GP, he was seeking the extra point for fastest lap

[@elliotcrossan6290]

Red Bull were also concerned about his tyres -- correctly, as I believe they found cuts in the rubber

[@michaelberube5236]

It's not an odd finish, but Suzuka 2000, and what must of been tens of thousands of airhorns blowing as Schumi crossed the line, the sound drowning out even the screech of the V10s, never fails to give me goosebumps. Easily my favorite.

[@W123KartSport]

Surprised not to see a race that was won on an aggregate time such as Damon Hill at Suzuka in the 90s

[@y_fam_goeglyd]

That race was a nightmare for me, a dyed-in-the-wool Damon fangirl. Talk about edge of the seat!

[@MulettoMotorsports]

To be fair, Juan Manuel Fangio waved the chequered flag wrongly in a 70s Argentine Grand Prix. I can't quite remember the exact year.

[@felipeleonam96]

Maybe not so dramatic as some as the ones in the video, but I remember the 2001 Spanish GP one of the most unusual finishes I ever saw, when Mika Hakkinen's engine blew in the final lap and Michael Schumacher won strugling with his Ferrari in his last stint. Also worth mentioning Piquet's victory in 1991 Canadian GP.

[@RayTX1337]

You forgot the Monaco rain race in 1996 which Panis won. Still the race with the fewest cars finishing a race. Boy was that fun to watch.

[@philippruest5577]

US GP 1959 Jack Brabham pushing his Cooper-Climax over the finish line right after he had won the world championship because Bruce McLaren and not title rival Tony Brooks won the race.

[@TheKnobCalledTone.]

You gotta remember that these videos are made by millennials. Anything in the pre-Schumacher era is ancient history to them.

[@Themaskedgamer97]

I think you forgot adding in the 2003 Brazilian GP that Alonso, despite the huge crash, finished third

[@Julian21008]

He has put it in

[@AndyS-kv2jh]

What about Spain in 2000 (or 2001) when Hakkinen broke down on the last lap with a few corners to go.

[@dictumobiter1365]

2001😉😉😉

[@mrdraw2087]

Or Räikkönen's last-lap suspension failure at the Nürburgring in 2005. But the 10 finishes in the video are epic too.

[@givemedrincc1775]

A sad day today. My man Kimi is retiring at the end of the season 💔

[@georgedanilov8898]

That was my reaction too, but Kimi really deserves to take a bow at some point,,, And it’s time to celebrate his extraordinary career, with plenty of spectacular drives and unforgettable radio exchanges If only McLaren could make a car that can finish when Kimi was in his prime form, history of this sport would’ve been different Kimi’s exit with overheated car in Monaco when he headed straight to drinking buddies on his yacht kinda sums that part up perfectly

[@Glenn7719]

Nothing lasts forever, all things come to an end.

[@MrTrustafox]

Edd asked what our favourite finish is.....certainly not Spa 2021!!!!

[@reptongeek]

Alex Wurz was asked by Michael after Silverstone in 98 if he saw the yellow flags and he hadn't seen them either because of the rain. Of course now we have lights to tell the drivers but back then we didn't

[@qwobify]

0:01 So you're telling me that Lewis Hamilton has won 10% of all Formula 1 races ever? That's unbelievable.

[@elirussell1796]

While not a Hamilton fanboy and more on the senna train for the goat I can confirm this is still impressive

[@chriscollins550]

To do that being constant is what it takes. Anyone can have a great car but not everyone can be that constant. Got to give it to him.

[@JustinW2980]

Not quite 10%. 9.4555% actually as he has won 99 out of 1047 Grand Prix. Pretty close though. Of course they didn’t contest as many GP’s pre the 1980’s.

[@TheKnobCalledTone.]

"Most successful" and "greatest" are two completely different things.

[@AirsoftReviewArgentina]

Fangio won almost half the races he started. He did 24 out of 51 and overall 36 podiums and 5 WDC in 8 years. To top that off it was made in the era when drivers were killed weekly and he started racing at the age of 39...

[@allenjackson2846]

Honorable mention to Malaysia 2017 when the camera cut to Vettel driving a three wheeled Ferrari car just after the race ended

[@babelaszombie]

I can see 8 years from now, when this video is remade, you'll be referring to three times champion George Russel coming second to three times champion Max Verstappen, with the two times reigning champion Lando Norris crashing out in Q3 possibly costing him his first race win.

[@maximus2536]

[@DonLee1980]

schumacher should have been hailed for trying to race, and not penalised for of no wrong doing.

[@reptongeek]

But as it said in the video there was an ambiguity in the regulations which was fixed later

[@MrWeedWacky]

the 2002 US Gran Prix is in my eyes always gonna be Schumacher repaying a win he felt his team mate deserved. This may not be backed up by much, except the podium performance in the race earlier on, where Schumacher didn't want to take the top spot originally. And the interview after the race he also said he didn't feel he deserved or needed that win.

[@paulvaneyden2686]

Monaco 1984 and reg flag waved by Jacky Ickx. He was racing with Porsche in WSC and wanted Prost to win. McLaren had TAG Porsche engine back then. Senna and Bellof were closer and closer to Prost. Race was red flagged and Prost won.

[@paulvaneyden2686]

@Scom Tott not against Senna but involved Porsche, read what I wrote... McLaren had TAG Porsche engine, Senna and Bellof had Cosworth engines and the steward who declared and waved Red flag was Jacky Ickx who was driving for Porsche. If Senna and Bellof would overtake Prost and he would be third, the points that he and McLaren would earn would be smaller than for first place. And there was explenation to stop the race, it was raining...

[@paulvaneyden2686]

@Scom Tott every point is a $$ for the manufacturer. Monaco GP was 6th from 16 races on 1984 season. Every earned point counts

[@datdudeinred]

The weirdest HAS to be when Micheal won in pit lane.😂😂😂 & Weirdest Start is 100% when Lewis started alone on the grid dropped to last & went on to finish 2nd/3rd[ontrack] Even while overtaking WIDEST F1 car in the history of F1😂. What a legend 🙌

[@dianamaioru497]

Lewis is a legend for that Hungary comeback- phenomenal drive!

[@steve4880]

@@dianamaioru497 That's what DRS does when you have the fastest car on the grid. Allows to catch up easily after making silly errors. Same thing like in Imola.

[@dianamaioru497]

@@steve4880 Hungary is known as "Monaco without walls" extremely difficult track to overtake on no matter how powerful your car is- give Lewis the credit he deserves- that man overtook ALL OF THE GRID bar Ocon and Vettel. He could've even won if Alonso held him up for 2 laps less than he did.

[@TheVitoriprj]

Great list, but forgot the Senna's first Monaco GP that Balestri finished the race earlier to not give him a chance to pass Prost

[@ChaserX90]

I'm surprised there isn't a 2008 Brazilian GP, overtaking a broken down car a few hundred yards before the finish line to clinch the title is certainly an odd one-off event

[@F1Krazy]

Glock hadn't broken down, he was on dry tyres on a wet track

[@hugeiftrue4224]

[@vijayshelke6565]

Can you do a video on the McLaren which crashed in the wind tunnel in the early 80s

[@Atreidez]

As a dutchie I ofc like the finish of the 94 hungarian gp; Schumi lets Jos by to unlap himself in the last laps, and when Brundle's McLaren broke down that handed third place to Jos.

[@SolidSonicTH]

I hate when weight limits decide a race after it's already over. I know it makes sense but it opens up the possibility of ruining the race by not enforcing the rule in the spirit of competition (Russell's DQ for weight limit violations is what kicked this off in my head - he was underweight, sure, but it was because his tires had been so worn down, which makes the drive itself amazing but in violation of the rules).

[@WaelAli-sd8sw]

Regarding the 2021 Belgian GP, that was absolute shambles. I think there were better ways to handle that. Also, I think the FIA should have taken the best of the conditions and raced under them. As evidenced by monaco 2022, waiting for the rain to stop and the clear skies to appear will create major backlash. Also, in fighting does not help.

[@siimtokke3461]

Before this video, I would have said that Michael cheated in 1998 since technically he finished before serving his penalty. But now I understand that the Stewarts f-d up in every way they could- not telling the team (like how you fail to tell a team about penalty FOR 25+ MINUTES), confusion about the penalty itself (was it stop-and-go or post-race time penalty). Michael won that fair and square.

That thing from Vettel in Canada, moving the signs for 1st and 2nd.. he didn’t actually park his car in that spot, so he didn’t place the 1 in front of his own car. Quite recent, The Race, so a bit sloppy to present it as if he did.

He come in second and moved the first place marker in front of he's car to prove a point. Because of the penalty he got for coming back on the track unsafe. Otherwise he would of been first.
