DC raced F1 in an amazing era. I got back into F1 in the mid-90’s and watching this video provided lots of flashbacks. Remembering the likes of DC, Mika, JPM, Villeneuva, Eddie, Fisi, Rubens, Ralph, of course MSC, and so many others. Being 1/4 Scot myself, DC was always a favorite . . . and being he was a brilliant driver with a commensurate personality was all the better!

@@JohnDaubSuperfan369 Born and raised UK and spent plenty of time with my Scottish family growing up - mostly Glasgow. I’d have to find that part of the family’s old clan reunion invites to get more specific on their heritage. ‘1/4 Scot’ seemed easier than listing credentials unrelated to the point made. Are you confused why people generally support things with which they have an affiliation? For example, their hometown sports teams or their own country’s athletes at the Olympics. Or just a bitter POS trolling about a completely inconsequential part of the discussion?

[@NathanIrizarry1]

Fun fact: when Mclaren set up DC’s car, they removed all the aerodynamic elements from the car and let his chin provide the downforce.

[@areasquirrel]

One of the front runners when I started watching F1, who seemed a bit aloof at the time. But after his peak and during his time at Red Bull, and after over a decade as a pundit and commentator, it is clear that was just the effect of the pressure of being the "Great British Hope" that many have suffered. DC is a classy man and competitor, more than I gave him credit for in my youth, and there were some great memories here, and I hope, as Rosanna alluded to at the beginning, younger fans are pleasantly surprised by his skill and determination. Great Scot!

[@JP-NL]

Never knew about his extraordinary career and the amazing person he is.

[@benwilliams5760]

He's a brilliant pundit too on UK TV (Channel 4). I grew up watching him race and now still love watching his work as a presenter.

[@yeeyz]

How about his perjury at Senna's case, when he said it was normal for the steering column to bend a few inches. Amazing person.

[@Toki-Ralte]

How about the time at the 1998 Belgian GP he refuses to let Michael lap him under the blue flag and then suddenly brake checks Michael on a splash heavy zone right turn, directly snatching the WDC from Michael to his McLaren teammate Mika?!? Does that qualify as one of his "brilliance"? That must be extraordinary and amazing, can't win but can let someone lose..

[@paulcowlishaw]

Yh me too. I was so big on Schumacher. I didn't look at cheering for anyone else until Brawn GP and Jenson Button

[@bimonsolivar8898]

Exactly my thoughts!

[@ratticusmaximusiii7172]

I was born in 1998 and my dad has been watching formula 1 since the mid 80s and I remember growing up in the 00s watching every single race with my dad and hearing David Coulthard and Micheal Schumacher sooo much not knowing fully who they are or what it meant to win a race but those two names are just engraved in the early 00s formula 1 history to me.

[@H-Real_8]

Coulthard was a great driver. Not sure he ever had a chance for the championship but it is moments like this that prove how talented he was. He certainly had a successful career and race wins but what he did for the teams he was in was even more important.

[@barniem3148]

He was too much of a gentleman and sacrificed any chance he had at McLaren in 98/99 by supporting Mika. Also his decision to move to McLaren for '96 cost him a certain shot at the title for '96 and '97 with Williams (had he stayed). He definitely had the speed but I also can't think of many other drivers who had worse luck as far as mechanical failures / reliability etc go than DC... - 7 DNF's in 1999 for example, 6 of which were mechanical!

[@TheRoyp80]

I feel DC was underrated as a driver by the public but very much respected by his peers.

[@tjskills09aan]

DC was my favourite racer. I remember going into London to get his autobiography and meet him. He said in his autobiography his best chance of winning the championship would have been 96 and 97 if he'd stayed at Williams instead of moving to McLaren. I think he would have beaten Hill and Villeneuve. I finally went to see him race on 05 in red bull's first year. I'll never forget the experience.

[@slowspecv69]

Maybe in 96 against Damon, but villeneuve was on it in 97. Although not that I say that, that would’ve meant villeneuve atleast wasn’t at Williams in 96. So honestly who knows

[@chamindujanith6337]

It's the other way around mate. Many people including me would love to see Jacques in the 1998/1999 McLaren instead of Coulthard.
