I still have a programme from a round of the '83 F3 championship. He was Blisteringly fast. That crash at Dallas took away his ability to brake like he used to and then missed the remainder of the 84 season. It was right there that he went from being a prospective F1 champion who probably would have had his pick of teams in the next few years. To where he ended up. At least he retired alive and kicking unlike his great F3 Rival Senna. Sometimes you have to reassess which things in life are a victory.
@WhenF1WasRealАй бұрын
Agreed... even when Senna was beating him in the early part of the season, the margins were small. By the middle of 1984 it seemed obvious that the future of F1 belonged to Senna, Brundle and Bellof... like you say, sometimes it's important to re-assess the things you value in life

He raced with LEGENDS of the sport and came out alive and smiling...... and he is A GREAT / Important commentator. I have and always will love MB.

How many people casting their ‘expert’ opinions actually saw him race, were at every single F3 race that year with Senna and followed him across Group C and before when he raced the Group 1 Audi 80? 1% of you? So fair to say most of the comments here are from the ‘statistics’ brigade who form their opinions off the back of others. He was a top tier racer, he wasn’t Senna but who was but had lots of bad luck, like those before him. Rest assured at his best in a competitive car he’d be on the podium. To see him compared to Lance Stroll (as one example) shows how little people know about the history of our sport. Being track side, in era, gives you a real view of a driver. Sitting on a sofa reading a website doesn’t.

To answer your last question - he'd trade everything for that one win as he was never happy commentating on races especially up to I think 2001/2 and this is all down to the way it was broken to him that he won't have a job behind the wheel in 1997 - it wasn't Eddie that told him but Louise Goodman. Even now his remark to Vettel that "you're more than free to take my job" shows someone who doesn't enjoy commentary (been stuck in a booth with Crofty is going to limit that enjoyment) so while he provided great insight - he's masked his disappointment as much as he can. It's a shame that his career in F1 panned out the way it did but if anything really damaged his career it would have to be the move to Zakspeed - nevermind the accidents - his career never fully recovered after that. Managed to rebound terrifically but I get the feeling the damage had been lasting as even if he got the chance again, they'd still have those doubts about his decision making. And then with Benetton, if you weren't on Flavio's good books, you were nowhere. At least Flavio, for all his many, MANY flaws, recognised it was a mistake to let Brundle go. Still none of us will ever get to F1 so he's lived a far more charmed life than any of us will ever get. Still, I don't begrudge him for feeling bitter about certain aspects of career, he is human. (Although, I really think he should ditch the grid walk, the whole thing has become boring)
@MPal24Ай бұрын
In his Beyond The Grid interview, he states that breaking his legs and always trying to go back to F1 harmed his career, hence the Zakspeed drive. He just wanted to be in F1, so ended up in a few crap cars, but that also hurt his sports car career. Had he committed to that, he could've become a Le Mans great, but the pull of F1 was too strong for him. Tbh, I think he's had the most interesting career of practically anyone, and TV has enabled him to drive more different F1 cars than anyone else

In 1980 when he was a Toyota car salesman in his father's dealership and a part time saloon car racer he would have probably given anything for a shot at F1.

Dude, there's no way Brundle would have beaten Schumacher in 1994. He was marginally faster than a rookie MSC in a handful of races in 1992, but by 1994 he'd have crushed him like he'd have done with Hill, hadn't it been for FIA's laughably disproportionate harsh penalties for the Silverstone incident. FIA were hell bent on keeping the WDC open for obvious PR reasons that year, so they went to ridiculous lengths to prevent Schumacher from walking away with the title by the end of the summer.
@mark4levАй бұрын
Schumacher was left foot braking in ‘94 using a two pedal set up. The only other driver who was doing this was hakkinen. This can be confirmed by a live bbc broadcast where Johnathan palmer stated that Hak and brundles cars used different pedal box. Brundle couldn’t left foot brake because of his previous injuries. That was his career over. It would have been interesting to see how fast an injury free Brundle could have been at say, Williams in the 80’s, but you could say the same thing as Warwick.

In equal cars there's no question Schumacher was ahead of Brundle, however I think the Williams was the better car considered across the whole of 1994 and whilst Hill struggled to come to terms with his role as team leader after Senna's death and had some poor races in '94, I think Brundle would have been in a much better position to maximise the car earlier in the season. Would it have changed the result? I don't know - I suspect Schumacher wouldn't have disrespected Brundle in the same way he did Hill at Silverstone, which would have meant he wasn't disqualified and subsequently banned for black flag infringements. Suzuka aside, where Hill was magnificent, I think Brundle would have achieved better results across the whole season. We might also have avoided the travesty which was Adelaide.

Brundle seems to be the guy in the right team at the wrong time, 1994 is particularly painful as what rarely gets mentioned is how brilliant the 94 McLaren chassis was. Monaco being great evidence of that, Brundle had a great race but what might Hakkinen have done starting on the front row had he not been taken out by Hill at the start? Same with Hungary, another circuit reliant on good chassis rather than engine... he would have been third even with the electrical issue had Schumi not let Jos Vestappern unlap himself... Had Hakkinen not been serving his (stupid) one race ban who knows where he'd have been!

@chrisroberts5668 Yes, and Mansell absolutely did put his life on the line, especially on qualifying laps at Silverstone.

So wrong ? Big lol Great second of Senna in F3 Matching Schumacher perfs in bennetton but in qualis Try to do the same.....

He was no match to Senna and Schumacher. The contrasting difference between Senna and Brundle when they entered F1 could not be more different. He had a faster car than Senna in F3 and everyone thought he was great, when they entered the big league, Senna was head and shoulders above them all. Brundle never even won a single race in his 11 years in F1.

Brundle being an F1 commentator is the only reason this video is made. His driving career is forgettable, and only isn't bc he is a commentator. He's Romain Grosjean

Brundle was just nog good enough, a fair driver but not even close to being a champion. Professional amateur level

Could have been good, but the knob sitting in his mum's basement who created it was too sneering towards Brundle.
