Mika Hakkinen Driving his 1999 Mclaren MP4/14 @ Goodwood Festival of Speed!

[@colinmcbottle]

That era of F1 cars was just so much more aesthetic than current ones. It was the perfect bridge between the more boxy 80's designs and the super complex looking >2010 ones.

[@TeslasSecret]

I agree. Though complexity didn’t wait for the 2010’s to arrive, the 2008 McLaren was wild !

[@maniamuse1319]

I did find the aero-appendage era in the 00s pretty ugly. Mclaren were one of the worst offenders. Every race it would seem like the cars would grow more and more sticky out bits, like if you leave a potato for too long in the fridge and it starts to produce sprouts. But then at least most of the cars had low noses which were more attractive than the high nose era in the 10s.

[@banditalley9592]

The sound of F1, something sadly missing now. The sound was so much part of the experience

He was too disheartened by the unreliability of his car

It would be nice to see him participate a friday practise session or something. That would be a crazy record for him - after 22 years, come back to official F1 event

[@rogernaidu6821]

Oh wow, as a McLaren fan. Thank you for that cameo. Brilliant. worth the the full watch. I'm watching again :)

[@philipejeuceoututkache]

When F1 was real F1. So glad I grew in the 90's watching with my dad each the grand prix on tv when they happened. Kids these day will never know the screaming chant of V10, the battles between Shumacher, Hill, Verstappen (sr), Frentzen, Fisichella, Vileneuve, Hakkinen, Coulthard, Irvine, and so many other pilots.

[@REFORGER_2023]

Yes, we had some good decades with these V12/V10s but also we had entire seasons full of VERY boring motorsport, especially in the Ferrari/Schumacher Era. At this time an overpaced (single) driver in the front field was the highlight of a complete grand prix. Many European F1-Fans might not notice that but I do cause I'm also watching Indycar & FIA World Sportscar Championship since the late 80s.

[@REFORGER_2023]

@@schumiisking Of course, the level of competition on track was FAR higher! I never would deny that in case of the pilots required technical/skillset. But the experience on fan & spectator side was often more boring because the f1 cars (+ most of the tracks) where simply not designed for in field position fights, overpacing, aso. That's totally different today. You can overpace wherever you want, you have more tactical&maneuver options due to drs for example plus (very important) you can do risky maneuvers on a regulary base (often) without consequences because todays run-of-areas are not made of shifting sands anymore. Simply we have more action today (but increasingly embarrassing sound).

Still impressive seeing that car with Mika at the wheel. It seems like time didn't pass for them.

[@chanchaniceman]

While there’s no denying the V6 hybrid turbo cars of any era with its advanced aerodynamics and far more powerfully advanced engines but there’s something genuinely sexy about these late 90s/mid 2000s V10 era f1 cars. The complex yet simple aesthetics,the loud deafening engine sounds which is part of the charm,how incredibly agile and nimble when they’re on the corners. I do think every era of f1 cars have its own charm and quirks but these cars just have something in them that’s special

[@sanchezramirez4280]
