F1 is basically an airplane that is designed to stick to the ground.

[@MM-tt7hy]

So basically nothing like an airplane.

[@NARDA1342]

Nop,is a designed car to stay on the ground and not go away flying

[@john-ob7bv]

It's designed to be stream line through the air but stay on the ground. A plane is designed to be stream line through the air but not stay on the ground so yes your right. Aero dynamics a massive factor in both. I would actually say building an f1 car is harder to build than a plane. How they keep a light 200mph car stuck on the ground is amazing engineering.

[@jamesrobert7155]

A fighter jet! They've often been compared to one another.

[@Pyllymysli]

@@jamesrobert7155 The comparsion is of the pilots. F1 pilot and fighter pilot need similiar reflexes, decision making and precision. Also the ability to perform under massive pressure.

Scott Bot, not sure what that has to do with this. He is certainly NOT driving a 200hp Formula Renault. He may have driven one of those in the workup to the full F1 car. I think it is plain to see that what he is taking part in would cost significantly more than £3000.

[@georgerosebush9754]

I think Hammond's car had more power, but either way he was actually driving it at or near the limit, while James was safely driving far from the limit, understandably so. It's much easier to be in control when you're well under the limit and braking super early.

[@dons1932]

It's definitely de-tuned. You can hear it on the back straight at the limiter. There's no way it would be speed peaking at that point. It sounds like they've taken the whole 6 and 7 gears and those power bands out of it.

oh wow what an opportunity, sadly you have not shown how much work it is to prepare the car, I was working on one of these an the V10 era cars, and no one would guess how much preparation it takes to just fire it up,.. warming oil, priming fuel, adjusting the hydraulic,s adjusting the bite point, filling the air bottle, preparing tires, calibrating sensors, and when you stall it under unfortunate conditions you are stuck in a gear and need to pop the hood and plug the hydraulics again, bring it to neutral, fire it up again, on some the throttle is actuated by hydraulics, so you need the external pump on every start... that btw the reason why the mechanics are pushing the car when you take off, just to safe 20 min of work. and yes there is anti stall, but if you slam the brakes, what most unexperienced drivers do, anti stall does not kick in as long a gear is engaged,..

Driving a formula 1 has always been a dream of mine. Thanks for sharing your experience. A friend of mine a few years ago had gotten a hold of a 1966 GT40 painted with the beautiful Gulf livery. He offered to take me for a ride. Believe me when he hit the gas, I felt the g-force push me into the seat, I heard that V8 open up and the sound filled the cabin, my mind, soul and spirit knew I was in a GT40 and a sense of everything I ever knew and thought about racing was renewed and confirmed, that this is the most exciting sport in the world.

Your reaction is exactly how I would have reacted!!!! Love it James! The naturally aspirated V12 & V8 is one of the reasons I started following F1. So cool man!!! Thx for sharing!!!

Three laps for a talented driver is all you need.....if you can master the race line on a dry surface,and sense the power under you. These machines are manageable......however they can be lightning quick,and tend to have their own ways,when on track by yourself is not to complicated.....however in traffic at full throttle...............nerves of steel are required,which is a God given gift.

lucky you. miss the screaming sounds of the naturally aspirated engines.

What an experience! Congrats bro! ...Maybe Renault put their engineers on this event rather than making engines that could last in the Mexico GP...

BEST DAMN EPISODE EVER

[@formulafan4428]

Just what I needed after this day to make it a bit better. Formula video + listening to the music I like (Delta Parole, Metallica and other) make me feel the speed and excitement!

You Mr, deserve way more subscribers. The quality of your videos, the editing, the soundtrack. Not saying that Shmee´s, STG´s, and SOL´s videos are bad, but your videos mate, are way better. This is one of the best car related KZbin channels, that I always come and always watch your content. Keep up the work, cheers from Uruguay.

Looked like he was driving pit speeds on the track except for the straights. Imagine driving one of those cars around corners the way a pro does!
