From a Ford Fiesta to F1 - Autosport Young Driver Winner Tests the Aston Martin AMR22

[@AutosportOfficial]

For those of you asking - here's his flying lap onboard footage! kzbin.infoJhgrV4Ca6uY?si=eANK6llGKfn8uiQu

[@NutellaCrepe]

He didn't crash on the formation lap. Huge prospect for Aston Martin.

[@p-money33]

I've seen enough - give him Lance Stroll's seat

[@thames21]

That would be Cruel. Lance has got a car with breaks that fail in such a way that the car magically ends up in the gravel.

[@45auto]

🤣🤣🤣

[@PKWeaver74]

Will need already 452% better at addressing the media.

[@richboy900]

Was about to say the same

[@CammieRacing]

An incredible experience for him no doubt. Kept it on the track, didn't spin or drive it into gravel, impressive stuff.

[@laportlaportlaport]

Stroll Out, Loake In! Stroll can use his experience in team management

What experience??​@@laportlaportlaport

[@on_wheels_80]

That lad is beautifully aware of what he's doing!

[@Paynos]

Well spoken, head screwed on, not afraid to show their passion for the sport. What a guy, looking forward to seeing more of Joseph on the grid.

[@titanent.6897]

Lol the btcc grid maybe. F1 not so much.

[@jamesswinbanks]

Fair play to the lad, sent it.

[@Lew699]

Joseph is the kind of person that deserves to be in this sport ! 🔥

[@titanent.6897]

Just cuz you're a nice guy doesn't mean shit. Deserving something just cuz you're a nice person is a stupid and flawed concept.

[@TrevorSmyth-hb3sq]

[@Felix2077]

I raced with Joseph Loake in karting and he has always been quick in everything he has done huge respect to him and hope he gets to do great things in F1

[@robdbanque]

Kids got talent, wish him well for the future.

[@ametti000]

He did an amazing and mature job.

[@titanent.6897]

Asked to many questions. Didn't know when to shut his mouth.

​@@titanent.6897 are you a stroll fan or what, shut it

[@Szaboo92]

What a cool lad. Well deserved ride for him

[@harryalfie8149]

Amazing Joseph! I remember David coulthard winning the first auto sport young driver award in 91 and seeing him drive the McLaren and followed him throughout his career. I’ll be watching Joseph very closely in f3

[@privatesecurityafrica4129]

Life experience... TOP!!!

[@PKWeaver74]

Couldn't stop smiling all the way through it. Kudos to Aston Martin for providing this opportunity for him.

[@jasonforrester6522]

Awesome, sliding the car about, quick, calm and just looked complety relaxed. A name I think we will hear from again in F1. Brilliant.

[@bwoahman]

Go on Joseph!!!!!

[@GamerMuscleVideos]

Fantastic that this is available to anyone with talent and is not enterally limited to only those that are super wealthy !

[@kieranfay29]

Pretty impressive showing by Joseph, only 1.3 seconds off strolls FP3 time from 2022 in a slightly more upgraded AMR22. From one days running it’s very strong!

[@howl4444]

The fact that he was 4.4 seconds off the pole lap of 2023 which was done by Verstappen is really impressive since AMR22 was one of the less faster cars

[@Mandykiss4500]

Remember Alonso’s Podiums in 2023? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@howl4444]

@ @ Alonso though, raced with AMR23 (in 2023), and my point was that a 2022 Aston Martin which is a much slower car that an RB19 (which was raced in 2023) was 4.4 seconds of pole lap (also in 2022 in silverstone it was raining). So with only a few laps he adapted and made this impressive result in my opinion.

[@jacliffh9221]

@@Mandykiss4500Guess what the 22 stands for in the car’s name

[@warbi505]

​@@jacliffh9221 so? It was raining during quali in 2022 so we can't compare. The fastest lap in practice by an AM was a 1:29.593 if that helps.

[@turkeeeyhunter]

@@warbi505 I don't think it's fair to Joseph to compare his first day of driving a Formula 1 car to Sebastian Vettel's time tho 😂

[@chadlonsoracingteam]

1:32 is quite impressive

[@fdotbiz]

16:24 nice save!!

[@matthewgwynne7874]

jesus christ, driving an f1 car like that for the first time is absolutely insane

[@dan_irl]

Just think of all the talent that just can’t make it solely down to cost. Hopefully we’ll see more sponsorships and driver academies to allow a larger pool of talent to shine.

[@levanoni]

Sadly it's still going to be just 20 seats. F1 needs to allow more teams in.

[@AmbientMike]

Love to see Blake presenting. What a knowledgeable and passionate bloke.

[@AutosportOfficial]

Us too!

[@fayt_564]

So this is where Blake has been.

[@therealrem]

What a great opportunity. Congratulations!

[@94nolo]

this is awesome!! hope to see him in f1 in the future! he has the attitude and the skill

[@matthewgamble95]

So nice to see a longer video of this, a lot of the time they do these things it’s like 5 minutes of footage. Great work

[@AutosportOfficial]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@PimSchouten]

Kid was fast AF!

[@MatthewScerriM]

I really hope he makes it to F1. Came across Joseph a few guys on iracing and one of the nicest guys you can meet. Shame he keeps effing off the distance though. Hope he makes it to F1, he deserves it!

[@Arado_Missile]

Already Driven further distance than lance stroll during Brazil formation lap

[@archyart6851]

He is very humble . ❤

[@turkeeeyhunter]

1:31.11 is only .3 away from stroll's 2022 FP3 lap!

[@Tenziki]

and its 5 secs away from 2021 pole lap what are u trynna say?

[@TrevorSmyth-hb3sq]

@@Tenziki It is unfair to compare 2022 cars to that of 2021. The comment you responded to was remarking on how this driver performed well and was not far off from Stroll's 2022 FP3 lap. For your own sake, think a little harder next time.

[@RhysWilliams-u3o]

​@@Tenziki noob response 😂

[@turkeeeyhunter]

@@Tenziki because the car in this vid is from 2022. The qualifying session for the British GP was wet, hence why I compare the lap time with stroll's quali sim from FP3. Idk what u are trynna saying tho

[@Ze_Techno]

I'm jealous lol

[@sonicstep]

There's always radio control model car racing. At £11.50 for a glow plug alone; not cheap anymore mind you.!

[@stewartgrindlay9760]

How refreshing. Will keep tabs on this young gentleman. Didn’t look out of place at all

[@mxolimtshoniswa9780]

It's his confidence for me ❤

[@cashxdr]

Blake!!! Great video!

[@LEWISRACING3]

Well done Joseph! 👍

[@tropicF1]

watched him do F1 esports in the video games. This is awesome

[@Stephincyber]

I bet this young man has a bright future sooner than later

[@waynebarrow2356]

He had the head of someone who had been in F1 for years let's hope to see him on an F1 grid soon

[@jasonzbell]

Joseph created a new American fan in me! 🙋🏻‍♂️ For how little high level experience Joseph has at this stage of his career, it was awesome to watch him absorb everything thrown at him, all the new info, steps, pressure, nerves, etc., then once he got in the car on his push runs, he had smooth hands, easily caught a couple small snaps and just seemed at ease. I’m very impressed and will be following from abroad. Best of luck Joseph! Whether or not you make it to F1, you have shown you can wheel the pinnacle of open wheel Motorsport and at the very worst least, I’m sure we’ll see Joseph racing something like an LMP2 or perhaps a Hypercar in the coming years. Le Mans would be fun! 😉 Keep it up young man! 💪

[@paul8161]

He's a true racer to get into the car and he immediately asks about brake pressures, an analytical racer thinking about every aspect of the cars performance and how he can maximise it.

[@oswaldotarantino26]

a thousand likes to this.

[@rybackracing8075]

Nice to see a young driver get a test. But I can’t help thinking teams should be testing way more young drivers just as part of talent finding?! It’s a multi billion dollar sport ffs.

[@CosmicSeeker69]

for what end? There aren't enough seats for the existing F2 drivers coming through......

[@rybackracing8075]

@ if Collapinto gets a seat next year a quarter of the grid will be F2 graduates.

[@voongnz]

10:16 Louis Sharp, another super talented kid to watch for in the future.

Very good lad! Give him a bit more tests, he seems interested!

[@williamc4309]

Comments just 99.99 % going to be, was he faster than Stroll are they

[@ashr2794]

I would have liked to stay on board for a couple consecutive corners at least. With the wild cuts back and forth you don't get a good impression of how well he is doing.

[@fordgalaxiefanclub7733]

a lot of racing drivers are either moody teenagers or only care about themselves. This guy is genuine and I like his energy

[@specc_s1452]

Replace Lance Stroll with him

[@ScottPC]

Lap record is a 1:27 and this kid did a 1:31 first try…. Amazing

[@Gary_HTX]

[@PKWeaver74]

Did he just hang the rear end out on his last lap! 😲

[@andreatelini2415]

Brilliant 👏👍💪

[@ZedNinetySix_]

Already better than Lance Strollism.

[@felixtherien3813]

1.31.11 considering Alonso and Stroll averaged high 1.29s in Practice in 2022, without a proper set up, first day in the car, is mental!

[@celesterossi733]

Replace Lance stroll please

[@JuanRojas956]

Where is the first part of this series?

[@Arado_Missile]

Damn you beat me to it

[@mikaels-p6765]

Well done to Joseph and nice video, just a little bit of critisisim to the editing team, in the pushlap at 16:20, you could at least try to cut to the right corners to where he actually is on the lap

[@warbi505]

That bothered me too, at 15:58 as well. I'm guessing they didn't have anyone filming at that location, though I'm sure they've got some aerial footage from earlier in the session they could've sliced in.

[@lunalucifer3335]

Johnny Herbert and Derrick Warwick in the same Video?F1twt will hate this

[@ChemicalShots]

Those lap times are the same as russels at the end

[@thedutchhuman]

What is Herbert doing there?....

[@Zimbertica]

From F3 to doing a 1:31 on his first push lab in an F1 car? He's not that far off pace!

[@smee8721]

[@kanevsorton]

why is it always with videos like this that the sound is never equal to the car.... cool vid though

[@AutosportOfficial]

When you watch on the TV Broadcast they have very specific microphones at the edge of the circuit, there is a lot of them. There are also very very expensive mics housed within the cars. We cannot really afford to do that I am afraid.

[@kanevsorton]

@@AutosportOfficial ah okay, now i understand. thanks for the explanation

[@JonnyMc7]

Just shouldn’t be the case to have a few laps and be comfortable from F3 to F1 even from F2. Formula 1 should scare the hell out of you and have to tame a beast that’s what’s wrong with F1 today. They are far too easy to drive compared to years ago. They seriously need to be smaller lighter no power steering and also manual H box much higher power to weight ratio

[@LeonBold]

Fun fact. 2022 qualify fastest lap of sainz was 1.40.9 in the wet. Max verstappen in 2023 did a 1.24.x qualify lap.... Joseph did a 1.31.x so yes nice to see the emotion, nice for him, but compared to others absolutly dead last with a fresh qualify tyre. i think this guy is not fast enough for the future. (and his neck muscles were not up to strength, you see him in the long corners allready using the side walls)

[@AutosportOfficial]

Different cars, very very different tyres and variances in atmospheric conditions, track temperatures and time of year all mean that doing comparisons between years, cars and conditions is almost impossible.

[@bobbyclark7423]

Get rid of batteries use bio fuel lets hear proper engines again

[@POVRR3]

Sadly not enough to beat Max.
