[@thomasb4422]

Ralf Schumacher, Spa 2001 when they forgot to lower his jack

[@dontaskme7004]

This entire video, it's like the script was written by a child that's never seen F1, and then read by someone who knows even less than that child... What's "funny" about these clips? Also, I got frustrated and started just skipping through, I might be wrong, but it seems like there were only 24

[@MevRB19]

You you moron - cannot even pronounce the names correctly. ! what a pillock

[@edwardbaker1331]

There was one driver back in the seventies who turned into a parking lot by mistake when he was attempting a pit stop. Don't remember who.

[@CaptainRambunctious]

I got 6 mins in. Nothing funny about crashing or being run over. And the narrator can’t even pronounce the names of the drivers correctly on what is supposed to be an F1 channel. Unforgivable…

Refusing to race on unsafe tires for the 2005 US Grand Prix was not stupid.

[@mika_e45]

[@danielbudzowski5774]

That was not stupid. Having 6 cars race was though

[@drewgriffithsfm]

It wasn’t stupid. Not coming up with a reasonable solution so everyone could race and pushing forward with a 6 car race was very stupid

[@ZER0_G]

I was at that Grand Prix. As I remember it, Michelin had the option of shipping sets of a harder compound tire that could survive the loads through the high-speed bank section where Ralf crashed. Because the tire wouldn't be competitive with the Bridgestone tires, Michelin and their teams orchestrated a boycott instead of owning the safety issue. I was a Ferrari fan at the time but still felt really cheated out of a good experience. FOM stood their ground and awarded points to the teams that raced.

[@marcobassini3576]

11:40 “with a race restart on the cards, every team predicted that intermediate tyres would be needed except Lewis Hamilton’s side of the Mercedes team” Every team actually predicted that dry tyres would be needed except Lewis Hamilton’s side of the Mercedes team, who started with intermediate tyres. And this was a race restart after the race had been red flagged. Everyone did the formation lap on intermediate tyres, and everyone re entered the pits to change to dry tyres, before getting to the grid to restart, except Hamilton, so when the race restarted, Hamilton was the only one who restarted from the grid, but he was on the wrong tyres. He dropped to last place when he pitted to change to dry tyres but by the end of the race he finished in 2nd place 12:20 The video is entitled “Dumbest F1 Moments Ever”. Formula E is not F1 18:55 “The impact spun Raikkonen into Rosberg, who was waiting beside him” No, Hamilton drove into the back of Raikkonen, pushing him forward, then Rosberg drove into the back of Hamilton. Kubica was waiting beside Raikkonen. Kubica was not hit in this incident, and went on to win the race. Also the image used in the thumbnail did not happen at an F1 event. It also did not appear in your video, so you’re using clickbait……poor What actually happened with the vehicle you used in the thumbnail, as clickbait, is explained excellently in this video by an amazing motorsport channel called Driver 61 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZaympuCe8eIirssi=eERi7thYKYVyHmsB

[@PhinixRoM]

The first one is not correct, it is not that they were send out to late, just nobody wanted to go first. Monza has a lot of straights, therefore a tow is quite strong and nobody wanted to give away that Advantage.

[@danielbish8801]

The information being said about those races is absolute bullshit, the first clip, I watched that qualifying session and the drivers were doing a 2nd run and none of them wanted to give the other driver a tow as Monza is a high speed track and that's why most of them ran out of time. At least get your facts right as there is an army of F1 fans who will see this rubbish video and pull apart the narrated crap.

Nothing in this Video makes sense: - Title says funniest moments, this is changed in the first seconds of the video to funniest and most stupid moments - How is a driver hiting the medical car funny or stupid? It's a incident that nobody wanted to happen - Title says F1 History, yet one point is about Formula E - How is aborting a race for safety reasons dumb or 'the worst decision'? I'm not here to say your videos are bad, they certainly are very good at terms of production quality. But some of your points are very weak or outride another category. So this one gets a downvote from me, I'm sorry.

[@keesvogelzang4588]

Agreed. There are a lot of funny moments in F1. But except for stopping at the wrong pitbox, none of these are funny.

[@ImyoCello]

You need to get laid bro...

[@XxKidnoffxX]

Yeah, hiting the medical car was probably the best scenario possible here. It was that, or he hit the f1 with the pilot who was standing in the car.... But for the aborting race being dumb decision, it's maybe more because we wait 3 hours to finally aborting it, when we all know it was the best decision since the beginning. But yeah, most of this clip was dangereous, accident and not funny at all. The only good thing about this video, it's about comparing the evolution of security for the F1 and the track, rules and everything.

[@username_mcusernameface]

1:05 It wasn't just that the teams sent the drivers out late, it was that the drivers were sandbagging and trying to "fall behind" each other because nobody wanted to be first and punch a hole in the air for everyone else... e.g., you can see someone, IIRC it was Ricciardo, going down the escape road. That quali was also that caused minimum out lap times to be introduced. 11:40 That's essentially a lose/lose situation for anyone in P1 - if they pit, nobody else does, and if they don't everyone else will.

[@PanAm747Clipper]

9:35 ferrari doing ferrari things

[@Minkouski]

Ferrari won that race. The pitstop happened under safety car, which meant that they would catch the rest of the field before the restart, so they only lost a few track positions, which turned out to be of less significance than getting proper tyres on. This video itself is dumber than most of the incidents shown.

For me, I'd have to vote #1 to Jean Alesi at the Australian GP in 1997 - while running in 2nd place, he ran out of fuel after the Benetton team had been calling him into the pit for fuel for 5 laps. His radio may have been broken, but he also ignored the pit boards, which one could expect a driver should pay extra attention to when his radio is out.

11:53 THOSE ARE NOT SLICKS! This video's information as stated by others is absolutely wrong and misinformed in most cases, but I managed to make it this far through the video before giving up. This race had so much more going on with the front runner cars damaged from a crash and weather too but the bit that really gets me is THE TYRES. You literally get a close up look in the video of the pitting cars with slicks and even more closeup on Hamilton's intermediates... and a quick google will tell you it was the other way around. This is so stupidly wrong.

12:17 okay I get protesting formula 1 with the oil protesters they are using gasses fair enough but formula e the motorsport that straight uses only electricity and uses no oil for there cars don't make sense to me.

[@argh1989]

I get what you're saying, but on the other hand... why not? It's still a huge circus with hundreds of people and tons of equipment travelling all across the globe (in jetliners, obviously). It's a greenwashed version of motorsport, which still upholds an ideology of a mode of transportation, rather than a practical solution. The concept of privately owned cars in cities is either elitist or downright stupid. Besides, the "Last Generation" activists have come up with all sorts of different forms of protests, the goal of which is to maximise attention. So this, as an event right within Germany's capitol city with a worldwide audience, was a prime target. So it makes a lot of sense to me.

[@MaggaraMarine]

The protestors are not protesting the event. They are simply bringing awareness to their cause. This is also why they threw soup at paintings. Think of it this way - it's a big event, so there are a lot of people watching. Sitting on the track (or throwing soup at a painting) is going to get you in news headlines, so it's an effective way of getting attention. Why aren't they protesting stuff that's more relevant to their cause? Well, they actually are, but no one seems to talk about it. So, this is a desperate way of getting people to talk about it. It's reminding people that this is a serious issue that they can't ignore, because no matter where people go, there will be people disrupting the event. I'm definitely not comparing these people to terrorists, but it works with kind of a similar logic - the whole point is that it happens at random. Terrorists do not choose their targets "rationally" - their targets don't necessarily have anything to do with their message. Like, why did the 9/11 terrorists choose the twin towers as their target? And why did the terrorists in France choose a rock concert as their target? Same thing with the recent terrorist attack in Moscow. I don't think the chosen target had anything to do with the reason why they did the attacks. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of this kind of protests. I understand why they do it, but I'm not sure how effective it is. Is it actually just a distraction (especially when the protest has little to do with the event itself), and could there be a better way of doing these protests? (I mean, most of the time when it happens, people aren't actually discussing climate change, but the fact that "the event has nothing to do with climate change - these protests are dumb", so most people are totally missing the point, and the discussion goes nowhere.) But it's a difficult topic with a lot of nuance. I would recommend watching the Just Stop Oil interview on Alex O'Connor's channel if you are actually interested on the topic. /watch?v=44TksbI7faM

[@sarah-marc]

One of the stupidest moment happened in Baku 2020, with Hamilton. He was leading the race after a restart, with only few laps to go. But he forgot his "magic button", witch disengage the front brake, and missed the first corner. This dumb mistake made him drop at the end of the grid, lost the victory and he didn't scored any point. This eventually made him lost the championship, as he was even with Verstappen at the start of the last race of the season. Winning this race would have made a difference in the championship.
