Pastor Maldonado's Only F1 Win! | 2012 Spanish Grand Prix Highlights

[@Enra000]

what makes it incredible is he won this race by pure pace, not by luck, not by crashes, not by penalties. what a year 2012 was!! 👏👏

[@QF_Dan72]

when Williams used to be fast

[@rvfharrier]

The pace of the grid was so much more even back then, several teams would be vying for a win each weekend and you could have one team be the fastest at one race only to be nowhere in the next and another team(s) to be competing for the win. Not like now where one or two teams are so far clear of the rest it's just a fight between them every race, really hoped the new regs would get us back to the 2012 days but alas.

Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton's names being dropped in live commentary within 7 seconds of one another in this highlights reminds me of how long Schumi was in F1 for. And how recently he stopped driving! Perez, Ricciardo, Hamilton, Alonso, Vettel (and Hulkenberg occasionally) are still on the grid, Raikonnen only just left. Wild to think 9 years after this, Michael's son joins F1 whilst half the grid are still those who raced against his father. Time is bizarre!

Finally a 2012 Spanish Grand Prix Highlights .... What a weekend.... 😎

[@FormulaJuan75]

7:33 I like how Kimi just stared into nothingness 😂

[@kgandrala]

loving the kamui kobayashi appreciation as well

[@user-hardbrain]

Japanese 2012 highlights would be awesome especially for a Kamui Kobayashi fan! Also, please focus the race highlights on Kamui's perspective. Also crazy that Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel, Daniel Ricciardo, Sergio Perez were in their early-late 20s during this time.

[@luuduonghy659]

I don't think they will concentrate on Kamui on Japan 2012 They will focus on lap 1 crash

[@dansmith6909]

This still brings a tear to my eye in 2022. Still my favourite race result in 35 years of watching F1. Gasly's first was pretty special too.

So true

i miss this F1 holy, iv come to terms that its never coming back but daym what a time to be F1 fan. 2012 was insane

Just remember, there is a parallel universe where Pastor Maldonaldo is at least 7 times WC.

[@markoflash3166]

Wow, i remember this like it was yesterday

[@sammylogic1313]

The great thing about Maldonado victory is that it wasn’t because of luck, nobody crashed in front and he sneaked to p1 or something like that, he earned his victory with pure talent speed and pace, well deserved. And Kobayashi was a beast in that sauber very underrated driver.

[@luuduonghy659]

Actually luck involved too He actually qualify in P2 behind Lewis. However Lewis was disqualified from qualifying due to fuel issue, which promoted him to pole. I had to said it is a bit of luck because otherwise Lewis would be 40s ahead of Maldonado

One of the best years in F1 history.

Gosh I miss the 2.4L V8 so much man

[@Earbud98]

We need highlights of every race from 2012 , because all were iconic

[@adamknight2630]

Man i miss these graphics

[@MDE_never_dies]

Everyone talking about Pastor, but I’m sitting here in awe of those moves by Kobayashi

[@alexandrinestephanus3486]

Fun fact: There were 7 different race winners in the first 7 races and over half of the teams had atleast one race win that season. 2012 was insane!!

[@franco-gil]

Vamos pastor! Cheers from Venezuela!

[@parthpatil7865]

F1 in nostalgia mode. 7:38 Kimi silent mode. Alonso lighting start mode. Disappointment for Michael, feel bad for him.

[@bosscobra1566]

The fact that it was pure pace and not any crash or problem in front is incredible

You hear? This is the true Formula 1 sound.
