Those noises you were making and the heavy breathing when they were rolling you back in lol. Thank you for including that, so amazing ❤

i had tears because when you dream about something and you actually drive an F1 and accomplish this dream, I would be in tears also. thanks for a legit video and true emotions

Max Verstappen drove F3 after karting. Max drove his first F3 race on 19 april 2014. Max had a deal to become part of the F1 team of Toro Rosso at 12 august 2014. That's 15 weeks after Max started F3 racing. You're 8 times as fast as Max Verstappen! Wow!

Now imagine how it feels when you actually drive this thing to its limit, the braking gforces are so insane.

[@Sylvanbarber]

It is a remarkable experience. I drove the same car in 2022 at Magny Cours for two 4 lap sessions, and again same program in ‘23 at Catalunya. I am now 71 years old and have raced sports cars and a prototype with lots of Hp and downforce. An F1 car is a whole nother realm. Congrats on a successful experience. When are you going back?

How much did it cost? And can anyone do this ?

Tuesen takk for sharing this run. I falled in love to F1 and Karting since 1998. I totally felt myself in your shooes. You prepared well, and you did a good job with this amount of experiance. Im quite confident in driveing, but I say I would not do better job on those laps in these situations, when you feel exitement, and a bit fear in the same time. Nice job man, I really enjoyed the video. 🙂

[@critical]

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate your comment!

[@modelcitizen1977]

You must have really good leg strength to lock up the brakes. Most amateurs struggle to get 25-30% brake pressure out of it.

[@critical]

No, no that strong 😉 You brake much harder in the start of the brake zone or how to say and gradually release it. This was just me failing on the releasing part, trying to trail brake 😅

[@Samo_Playz]

thats really impresive, only 2 weeks experience and u can already DO 5'GS while a turn, and really impresive that u can push the pedals down like its nothing, THATS LIKE PUSHING A DAMN baby elephant! love ur vids keep up the work

Rubens Barrichello Drove this car at 2011

[@FaffyandJus]

Absolutely brilliant! You were driving that amazingly sir. Well done.

[@donlunn792]

You did a fantastic job. Apparently keeping the brakes hot and the tyres. Even Valentino Rossi, when he drove a Ferrari struggled to do that. In fact the Engineers wanted to call him In, because he wasn’t driving fast enough. I had a Day at Brands Hatch,many years ago, courtesy of BMW. Drove a Lotus Sunbeam which I enjoyed,and then a formula Ford with a straight cut gearbox. I hated it. I was totally out of my depth. A lot of other guys said the same that they couldn’t adapt . I could never have been even a clubman racer. All credit to you. Great one.

[@critical]

Thank you! 🙏🏻 Im sure he had a bunch of sponsors to worry about that told him to keep it slow 😅

[@CuoreSportivo]

this was an amazing video. i felt like him as well. it was crazy. what an experience! so how much did it cost you? we need to know!

[@LtKatzeGP]

If i remember correctly, the FW33 experience on magny cours is around 6000€

[@dionvanbreugel]

You can drive it at Barcelona and Magny Cours, in the past it was also on Portimao or Paul Richard but I can't find those now. For Magny Cours 3 laps cost you just under 6K, you can go up to 10 laps wich will cost you 14,4K. Barcelona with 3 laps starts at 7.7K and 10 laps cost you 17.7K. In that price it includes the Formula Renault sesions, all the debriefs, a lunch and I assume all the renting of the suits helmets and all other equipment. Ooow yeah, bringing a person with you who is just there to watch it costs you €60 per person and you can bring up to 5 people with you wich will then cost €300 The insurance will cost you €590 but is not mandatory, personal decision how much risk you wanna take with that.

[@rhyswilliams4893]

Id be happy enough to sit in one when they start it up behind me. That and opening it up on a straight is probably the only part a noob can enjoy without fear of destroying it. Ive drove a forumla renault 3.5 which had a V8 like this period of f1 but less downforce(not that i went fast enough to use it) That was 30 minutes of me gradually opening the throttle to about 85% and braking silly early and rolling around corners on mechanical grip. I wish i had driven more advanced stuff before so i could remember it for more than fear and my head falling off. Porche cup car was a million times more enjoyable for a lay person like me then...

The neck is the reason they only let you do three laps. Four laps and your head would be looking up at the sky like a drunken idiot while in charge of an F1 car. The F1 2011 version with KERS had 770bhp, it would have been interested to know what the version in the video had. Great video and fun to watch. As someone that's had fun in karts I've always want a go in something with more beans. Formula Ford disappointed though.

No, it was actually just that i only got the 3 laps package. You can have additional laps at a cost. The car in the video is the real one, not turned down

as a kid my family and me went to hungary for holidays. the owner of our holiday house told us what could we do in the region besides from the hiking my parents had planned ( boooring ^^). so he told about the kart track they had not far and of course i wanted to go there as soon as i heard about it. then one day, we went and it were not actually go carts but they looked like monocoques and were pretty powerful ( i mean i was like 12 or 11, its not that i had much to compare in terms of what was actually a powerful engine or car ^^). the track was also a wider and longer version than in go carts tracks, maybe around 30-40s a lap ( a hard guess). the position in the car was awesome, you almost were laying flat in these things and so close above the ground that you could virtually feel it. the tightness in the cockpit, ah it was epic. will never forget that day, probably one of the best in my youth driving these things.

[@critical]

That sounds so awesome!! Like something out of a 90´s movie

@@critical actually we are talking the early 90's here, like 1993 ( im was born in 82 in the GDR). in hindsight im pretty sure that this track doesnt exist any more - or at least the cars.
