21 things you didn’t know about F1

[@siddhartharakshit6307]

this video series is what got me into watching kym illman 3 years ago and now im still watching him. what a journey

[@KymIllman]

You’re hooked. Cheers

[@somuchbs6008]

Video is three days old, you live in the future 3 years from now?

[@siddhartharakshit6307]

@@somuchbs6008 he had made lots of vids like these

[@somuchbs6008]

@Kym Illman FYI: Latifi is playing hockey right handed, it’s the top hand that controls the stick not the lower one. Right hand = blade on left side. Left hand = blade on right side.

[@ol1mar]

As someone who eats up as much trivia as I possibly can I didn't think this video would have too much that I wouldn't already know. Thanks for proving me wrong Kym this was great!

[@terryrobertson8382]

Thanks!

[@caprisun4883]

Love all these videos Kym! Would love to hear more about the team principles sometime as well!

[@karloanttila]

You're right, Kym, I did learn interesting nuggets of information despite the fact that I've been following the sport since 1967 when I started Jim Clark race!

[@thatguyjezza]

Your videos never fail to make my day Kym! Keep up the amazing work mate!

[@KymIllman]

Will do my friend

[@pokemonster3050]

Best f1 content! Thanks for keeping us entertained between races!

[@iamrajankit]

@4:56 they forgot to cover brake callipers 😅

[@bennylloyd-willner9667]

I knew someone else saw it👍

[@mother1310]

Thank you Kym! Another fantastic video!

[@watson956]

Thanx Kym, this was a fun vid. Enjoy Singapore this weekend!

[@ANOAFunnyVideo]

The Silverstone podium is also not above the garages, it is at the end of the complex, meaning if you pay top dollar for a grandstand seat opposite the pitlane , you cant actually see the podium which is to the right just around the corner , not a very good design, Also pit lanes have to be flat , where as the start finish straight goes up hill slightly, so if you sit the the left hand grandstands , the pit boxes are obscured by the elevation of the track, again , another bad design issue that most don't ever find out until to late .

[@tonyhooper3621]

Great video Kym very interesting and informative im a Real petrol hed and following F1 keep up the good work cheers mate ill be looking in from time to time.

[@TheSummerbeauty23]

Fantastic insight as always Kym. Your videos are always such a delight.

[@juliswift]

Thanks for always being so informative! I love your videos!

[@captcol85]

I absolutely love your channel mate. New to formula one over the past 3years. I am now all things F1. I just came across your channel and can not stop watching. You ate a legend mate. Thanks for the content from down under 🇦🇺 let’s go #3

[@r1cpac]

Thank you kind sir. Hope to catch you on Friday in SG.

[@bbaelyy]

Yet another top class video!

[@NikCan66]

Excellent video and informative

[@jasongarufi8187]

Thanks for the great video Kym

[@tommymcfarlin8469]

These videos always make me smile and I feel at piece when I watch them. My day is brightened every time a new video is launched. Keep up the great work, great video as always. Have a wonderful day.

[@Vulkat]

its always a joy to see this man talking about F1 :D

[@a.arnaavv]

Loved the Video Kym

[@ucid1h]

Absolutely Excellent …

[@HbbH38]

Lots of right handed hockey players have a natural left swing. :)

[@Znarffi]

It's much more natural to lean on the side that is not your dominant.

[@PhilosophyProf14]

That was a fun one! Thanks, Kym.

[@GTVIRUS]

On the Track Width Rule, it's definitely more of a guideline. Suzuka and Monza come straight to mind. All the supposed track design rules have been broken in F1 in recent years, such as the 12m minimum width broken with Baku

[@jakechapman3430]

Great video, Kym.

[@KymIllman]

Thanks Jakemaister

[@ndutzz100]

Loved this video Kym.

[@vjollila96]

7:11 it was even higher with bottas

[@junilog]

McLaren driver numbers being 3 and 4 is really cool, like the Hamilton-Button days. I bet 2016 Manor still hold the record for the biggest sum of their drivers' numbers.

[@nj_jj]

Very entertaining watch kym!

[@sspacegghost]

like the green light so much better than the poople in casa del lancelin.

[@Slime-Man-Extreme]

Real good choice of F1 facts; I only knew 1 or 2 of them already.

[@nickisrael9922]

Kym asking: Nick : "did you like this video?" And my answer is: "Yes Kym, I deeply like ALL your videos". As usual...huuuuuuge hugs from Colombia

[@asifalam1125]

Love your videos. I looked for you at this years aus gp but couldnt see you. Always a pleasure to see you in tv taking clicks

[@motoguzzi7592]

I loved this video.

[@kimitheworm]

Mclarens numbering is interesting - in Indycar they also have 5 (O'Ward), 6 (Montoya) and 7 (Rosenqvist) giving a full run from 3-7

[@ml66b]

Who was the first driver to spray Champagne from the podium....? Sir Jackie Stewart.

[@SewMuchBlack]

the strap under the foot is called a "stirrup". bruce lee also used stirrups in his adidas trainers on movie sets, as do many other athletes (and soldiers), depending on the gear they have. its just really practical.

[@ianmac2963]

Good vid ... enjoyable and informative ... many thanks :)

[@manishasaxena7665]

extremely good videos sir, love them.

[@motorsportarmchairexperts3642]

Thanks Kym.

[@Thomas1982]

Saving up for one of your amazing pictures. Love the content 👌

[@KymIllman]

Just launched Alex Albon signed Pics last night

[@Arsenic71]

Great video, very entertaining and informative. Thanks a lot! Just the kind of info F1 nuts like me love to see.

[@kostauric6467]

Love the new intro with 2022 cars

[@KymIllman]

Well picked up, I asked for that to be done but didn’t check whether it had been done

[@jesperv.nielsen6090]

In hockey a right hander will shoot left and a left hander will be shooting right. Alway have your strongest hand on the top of the stick.

[@sammorrissette6831]

Very cool edit at the beginning

[@KymIllman]

Thanks for noticing

[@heatofthedisco]

love this

[@bsfm6990]

18 people and still can’t get 4 wheels out in time

[@nickrobb3448]

Amazing content per usual

[@cristobalswinburn8849]

1:22 what about Monaco, is it an exception?

[@petiertje]

4:56 They forgot to tape the brake calliper :-)

[@KymIllman]

Yes

[@murraysulter1823]

Very interesting fact regarding the photographers! Very hectic that 50/70 permanent photographers don't attend all the races, do they only attend a few or do they mostly miss a few? Would love to see more videos related to the photography side of F1

[@KymIllman]

I’m guessing only attend a dozen or fewer

[@willemmkuipers]

So, all tracks with an M have a podium away from the pit? Monaco, Mexico, Miami and Monza

[@philip5899]

Kim, do you know why Toto sits in the back of the garage watching a monitor instead of trackside like the other team principals? No one has answered this question to me so far !!!!

[@PolishEddie92]

So every place that doesn't have the podium in the pit Lane starts with the letter M, Monza, Miami, Mexico, Monaco 😁

[@rycx3945]

1:21 Is monaco an exception then? Pretty sure it's not 15m wide?

[@CallieMasters5000]

Monaco 🇲🇨 is always the exception.

[@ianchew1731]

The person hiding the Mercedes logo on the wheel never noticed the brake caliper, poor form!

[@areixn2981]

I was right with the driver numbers lol great vid, Kym.

[@KymIllman]

I initially thought it was Alfa Romeo

[@stevenwex8966]

F1 is in a little bit of a golden era, and very popular, maybe because of Netflix's driver to survive. But the FIA just races at which ever circuits pay the most. When the new calendar included Las Vegas I was very disppointed. Three races in the USA, Five races in North America and all over the place on the calendar. All street circuits should be axed, starting with Las Vegas and the two in the middle east. Albert Park isn't a street circuit, it's a race track open to the public the other 51 weeks of the year.

[@varmapsv1999]

Hay Kim why don't you make an video about what do drivers do and what happens on the rase day before lights out like how car's are prepared, how they are brought on to the race trac something like that

[@KymIllman]

Will consider it.

[@erikdanielsen2691]

I am glad i know this now))

[@mk21965]

No logos on the vehicles ut not apparently on the brake calipers...

[@briandavies7515]

Great info,some of it made me smile.Thanks kym,love all your vlogs ❤

[@nellupa]

Williams also have a Two Michelin Star Chef, Niall Keating

[@KymIllman]

I asked a few people if any other teams had Michelin chef the whole season and was told that only Karlheinz does all 22 races.

[@lizheinrichs]

Very interesting fact regarding the photographers! How many female photographers are around throughout the year? Roughly?

[@KymIllman]

I’ve seen about 6 this year. But none do all races.

[@Zoltanist]

Hello Kym! I was wondering if you ever plan to attend WRC event sometime ? Or have you ever attended one ? Just out of curiosity Btw loving your videos keep up the good work.

[@KymIllman]

If I had a weekend off and there was a rally in the city I was that I would love to

[@Sebastianraikkonen_actualname]

And I can can conferm... A Jerrybonham is 4xx as big as reggular botttles *hiccup* Nah seriously, love this video's, unlikely the rest of the "you didn't know" videos on KZbin, Kyms always presents stuff you actually didn't know.

[@Tejvir7]

Nice

[@armandsatoor]

Kym, you forgot something 🤔😊

[@ajmavb]

Isn't the main podium at Zanvoort opposite the pitlane?

[@KymIllman]

No, same side as the garages

[@ajmavb]

@@KymIllman You are so right. I mistakenly thought you were talking about the grandstand.

[@ryanbreker9490]

“Playing hockey” or shooting left or right handed has very little connection to a person’s writing preference. Unless you are a goalie.

[@deweberis2709]

Did you know Seb Vettel used to race with a Lucky Coin in between his shoe laces ? I've never seen it. Could you kindly take a pic of it before he goes forever ? 📸

[@KymIllman]

Will look for it.

[@shikoflako]

Do you have any give away? I'm a fan of you. I'm learning photography and you are my idol.

[@KymIllman]

I just gave away a signed Kimi picture and there’s another giveaway coming up next month for all of my VIP KZbin members

[@miltonbrownrigg8409]

Yes he does. I just won a pair of RayBan Stories sunnies simply by being a channel member.

[@CallieMasters5000]

Any pets at the track besides Hamilton's bulldog? What do they do with them and kids during the race? Nannies/assistants?

[@user-pf2qr8rf2l]

Would Mclaren not have the lowest driver number total with 3 + 4 = 7 ?

[@KymIllman]

What did you think I said?

[@MelonAMango]

Can we meet up in Singapore?

[@KymIllman]

If you see me around the paddock certainly say hi

[@MelonAMango]

@@KymIllman I'll definitely say hi to you Kym! ☺️

21 Useless things you didnt know about F1 - Fixed the title for you! :P

[@CallieMasters5000]

Do you think you could ever make more money from your videos than photos of F1? That would be impressive, since they don't let you take video at the track.

[@KymIllman]

Definitely

#22: Danielle Ricardo won’t be in thumbnails next year.

[@TheSociallydestroyed]

Just for that useless last piece of information about numbers, I don't like this video.
