The Worst F1 Driver You've Never Heard Of..

[@RandomGuy37]

When looking at F1's history, there are so many terrible drivers that make Stroll look like Senna

[@stevesecor4382]

E'rebody hates Stroll - but frankly I would do the same thing - he still gets to drive in f1

[@ElPierdolito]

@@stevesecor4382 I don't hate him! I think he laughs at all the critics and haters ... as you said, he still gets to drive F1 and his dad has billions which he will one day inherit (if his dad doesn't go bankrupt) ... but with Adrian Newey most likely going to Aston Martin, he might even become a world champion ;)

[@rikpatra4578]

Stroll isn't this bad... Obviously he has had it easier than most other drivers and might not be on the grid if not for his dad, but is still talented, scores points and keeps up with the rest of the grid...

[@random-person1]

@ElPierdolito firstly, if senior wants a world champion in his team, he needs to get rid of junior. To suggest that junior could be a world champion just because senior got someone who knows how to build a car, who in their right mind would think that junior could be that person? If you were just joking, don't give up your day job! Plus, apologies for the straight talk. If you were being serious, please find another sport to watch, lime golf maybe.

[@random-person1]

@rikpatra4578 alonso, 58, stroll 14. Now, for comparison, Franco Colapinto 4 points, in only his second of 9 races. And let's be honest here, A) he drives a williams car that he has only driven once before actually taking part in an f1 race. B) he didn't LUCK into getting those 4 points. He raced like (well, I was going to say lewis, but maybe that's a bit far-fetched). But you get the point. And C) he was driving a williams, one of the most under funded teams on the grid. Stroll, on the other hand, drives a car for a team that has just agreed to pay newey 30 million dollars [a year]. So clearly, they don't have a problem with funding. Junior, if you can believe this, has finished outside of the points no less than 11 times this season alone. Junior doesn't deserve the drive he has and the ONLY reason he's there is because of who his dad is. The biggest reason otmar szafnauer was replaced was because he suggested that junior should be replaced once too often! Or at least that's the rumour. Junior is taking up a seat that a far better driver would do better in. Perhaps even Colapinto himself should be offered the seat for next year!

Wow, what a pain in the bum SHE turned out to be. I'm a woman who's done some driving, but I had no money, no connections, and was never wildly ambitious - I just wanted to drive. I had a fantastic time because I knew my limitations. Frankly, I don't care who's the best in the world at anything. Not bothered. I'm more interested in having fun. I was a rally driver before, during and after the Group-B era (only amateur); I competed mainly in the UK. I drove once in Finland and lived in Kenya for several years. I enjoyed mucking about preparing cars and was a keen mechanic. The rallying fraternity didn't give me a hard time for being a girlie-girl. I'm single and straight but once the guys saw that I was as mad about the sport as they were, that I was ready to crawl around in the slush or the mud at midnight and fix stuff without whingeing, I was accepted as one of them. No problems. Club rallying was my goal [maximum fun, minimum funds], and that's what I did. The highlight of my so-called career was providing support and driving service barges for privateers in the old 5-day East African Safari, and eventually getting to enter and complete the event twice myself - once in a wet year, and once in the dry. [A 'wet' Safari is indescribably soggy. You wouldn't BELIEVE how soggy. On one section the roads had been washed away; we had bright orange flood water at windscreen level and hippos pushing past us. There was a crocodile. We lost our maps. We locked the doors and slept in the car.] Of course we didn't win anything. Don't be daft. We were a hilarious 11 hours behind the works teams, but that was fine. I drove, nobody died. Result! In my low-key, unremarkable, utterly insignificant driving years I didn't upset anyone. I wasn't an a*sehole. I wasn't a prima donna. When I wasn't competing I volunteered as a marshal. I helped rivals get their cars sorted out and back on the road. The idea of actually winning anything never occurred to me. Formula One seems to attract a very different kind of person. There's a lot of ego, for a start. And money. And ruthless ambition. Climbing the career ladder to the top takes a special kind of, er... 'focus' that I'm delighted I don't have. Nobody on KZbin will ever make videos about me. I'm no Michèle Mouton or Sabine Schmitz; they're genuine stars, I'm not. That's fine by me. I'm content with my memories. As this video shows, winning's for losers. As the end draws near and you lie on your deathbed, reviewing your life, the important thing is to have had a d*mn good giraffe.(🤣) Or maybe a hippo.

I thought "and when exactly did that happen?"

[@karlbassett8485]

I thought that too when watching this video. How would she know?

[@ernestogasulla7763]

Even though she was pretty bad, she was in no way the worst driver to ever drive (since she never got to race) in F1. The worst driver to ever drive a F1 was Chanoch Nissany, an Israeli millionaire who bought a seat to test drive a Minardi in 2005. He spun after a few laps, and couldn't even unlock his seat belt, so when the car was picked by a crane to return it to the pits Chanoch was still inside. And the worst to actually race in F1 was Al Pease, who contested the Canadian GP in 1967, 68 and 69. In 1967 he finished 43 laps (yes, no typo) behind winner Jack Brabham. In 1968 his engine failed before the start. But in 1969 he got to race... being as slow as he had been in 1967 he decided to go out with a bang, and bang! he did -he fought back like crazy every time he was lapped, which was every couple laps, and when he almost took out race leader Jackie Stewart, race officials had seen enough and disqualified him for being too slow, something no other bad driver (Amati, Mazepin, Ide, anyone else) ever achieved.

[@BlueFox284]

Didn't battery die on Al's car in 67'? He walked all the way to the pits, grabbed a new battery, walked with it all the way back to the car, and installed himself. I remember reading about him on the old F1 Rejects site. Guy had no quit in him. That's for sure. 😅

[@craigcharlesworth1538]

I can only assume she was talking about her experience in Formula Abarth and Italian F3 where she did have a little bit of success and a few wins. See, looking at her at that point in her career, coming straight into single seaters and winning races despite skipping karting (ironically one of the few other F1 drivers with no karting pedigree was Damon Hill!) you can see why some F3000 team owners might have thought she had some potential. Unfortunately she was completely found out in F3000, blatantly nowhere near the standard she needed to be and whoever was running Brabham must have needed their heads examined for hiring her. I mean, she bought money sure but there have always been tons of drivers around with backing. At least hire one who's demonstrated a tiny bit of ability. The only reason anyone remembers Amati is because when Brabham sacked her they replaced her with a future WDC. Hill managed to drag the Brabham onto the grid twice before the team disappeared, including at Silverstone where he was lapped repeatedly by the same Williams he was test driver for and Hungary where he'd return a year later and win it.

[@rockymtnsquid4537]

In 1992 at the Mexican F1 Grand Prix, I actually met and talked with Amati. I still have a video I took of a press conference she gave after failing to qualify. The real story is that her sponsors promised Brabham $5 million USD if they gave her the seat. This is also the year that Gordon Murray came up with the idea to place the BMW turbo engine at a slanted angle to reduce the drag coefficient of the car. This design ended up being a complete disaster, making the car very uncompetitive. At the time, Bernie had stepped away from Brabham, concentrating on running the business of F1 instead and was trying to sell the team. Unable to find any buyers, he then decided to lease the team to an alleged group of British gangsters. They quickly discovered they needed money to properly run the team and is the reason Brabham accepted the $5 million USD offer to let Amati drive. When the money failed to materialize, she was then given the axe.

the 107% rule was decomissioned in 2002. After that it was reintroduced in 2011 but i believe everybody who ever was outside of the 107% after 2011 always was allowed to get on the grid anyways. The 2011-now 107% rule must be the most useless rule in the book of F1 rules... There even was a team (minardi i think) who was SO late getting their cars completed that it was AFTER qually for the first race of the season. This car didn't drive a meter in testing, didn't do free practice, didn't do qually and nobody knew if it was capable of doing 107%. Yet still.... allowed to start the race.

Great Video

"Nobody would like to stay behind a woman, sincerely not even me" - a woman. Yeah, she did not face sexism, she was suffering the consequences of her incompetence behind the wheel of cars worth a hundred times more than her existence.

You've got the photos of Davina Galica & Desire Wilson mixed up.

Oh i love this whole story, feninists gon lick this plate clean.

[@fishman501]

What plate?

Grosjean has to be up there, I mean he took out whole teams when he crashed. I just guess he had more money.

[@mitchcolburn1216]

Grosjean had speed though. He was too quick and had too many good results to be considered anywhere near the worst. Basically Maldonado without a win.

[@Cloxxki]

Lance is so much better a driver. Ahead of Vettel and Alonso too often to be a nobody. Pole position in the rain, younger podium finisher.

Stroll is a talentless imbecile!!

😂😂😂😂give over

“The worst formula 1 driver” bro you said that in 10 different videos 💀

[@jimbo992]

I’ve heard of her. I even watched her try to pre qualify. She’s well known to any self respecting F1 fan!

[@jimmydesouza4375]

“And honestly i don’t even know how” Really?

[@dietpepsivanilla3095]

She didn't even qualify for an F1 race.

[@timmehlittleloud2251]

"She sped off to the Valalunga..." Then footage of Braddon Bridge on the Isle of Man TT course 🤔 She wasn't there was she. Cmon, admit it 😂😂😂

[@mr.crocket187]

"no one wants to go back from a woman, first or 2nd or pole position" ya right! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 she really say "pole position"!? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[@phaenius]

Ha ha ha, that's not what mirrors are for. 😄

[@widjojohuang7854]

But imagine, if she actually had strong neck like other females, and never getting kidnapped at 19, but never skip in karting, f2, etc

[@JR-cm9sh]

I honestly think she could have done alot better if she stuck to GT racing. what a waste

[@Hani_raihan]

Atleast Lance is not so bad

[@mabuhayimplottingyourdemis423]

She should've stuck with motorcycle racing & she might get some decent rep

[@EdAb]

"Elio Danelis" ? 5:41 His name was Elio de Angelis

[@SurnaturalM]

I would be curious if mlle Mouton would have been a good open wheel driver.

[@blazi2293]

Is she worse than Chanoch "I have too much grip" Nissany though 💀

[@bl4xxun]

8.7 seconds behind Poele? More like 3.1 seconds 😂 But she was 8.7 seconds behind Mansell, who qualified P1

[@simonkevnorris]

I think it was stated she was behind pole not Poele.

[@ElPierdolito]

WOW, I'm a big F1 fan and yet I never even looked for female F1 drivers, I didn't know all this. Thank you! p.s. I do not deserve to call myself a bit F1 fan ... I''m just a fan.

What a fascinating and intriguing story, and I can’t help but think that there was something between the ringleader and Amati, the rich kid, maybe a bit of Stockholm syndrome, maybe in reverse, but if he was sending her all the love letters, telephone calls and gifts etc surely the police could have tracked him down through the calls and where letters were sent from and possibly where gifts bought from, they could have changed the phone number and not have it listed, it just seems so bizarre to me, but worst of all is that he fell for such an obvious trap, if she had gone through so much during her “kidnap” then why would she even contemplate going along with such a plan. Perhaps it’s a pity that she didn’t have a romance with her kidnapper, she might not have decided to be a motor racing driver and saved the sports fans and other drivers from her purely ludicrous bad driving, perhaps she should have gone to Lego-land and practised on their kids racing attraction, it seems to me that was about her level, and before I get accused of being sexist or misogynistic I do realise how difficult it is to get to the top of the sport and that very few people, of either gender, have the ability to race cars, but most of those who do make it to the top don’t start where she did, most of the top drivers start in go-karting and go through the classes of the sport before getting into a well known team, even the likes of Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel, she got where she did through money. I was wondering if, like now, she had to have a specific license to race in the category of cars that she did?, but not knowing if all categories of the sport need a specific license now, I only know F1 does, whether there was such a requirement, but just assuming for a moment there was that requirement how the hell did she get the licenses needed, surely someone or some team would have protested about it, on safety grounds would have been fair in my opinion. I take it that the blacked out sections and the AI generated images are because of either self censorship or KZbin laws (guidelines), but possibly because you can watch the whole uncensored footage on another platform?, if so it would explain why this channel only has 80k+ subscribers, if it is KZbin then how come other channels show the whole footage available?. What did Amati have?, let me guess, well she was pretty………pretty awful driver, she was fast………..fast enough to throw her teddies out the cot and try killing another driver, she was very consistent……….consistent at not getting any points (or finishing races), very knowledgeable about F1……….knowing how much it would cost Papa to get her the drive in F1 (albeit with a team that was broken, in every sense of the word. Let’s see, on balance I think it had a lot to do with Papa, am I wrong, let’s see, roll the tape. Was it my imagination @ 12:54+ or did she pass a lipstick to one of the pit crew/mechanic? I thought I saw it earlier in the video as well but was not sure, it could have been a chapstick but they don’t usually come in a gold colour container, if it was lipstick then that makes me think she was not focused on what she was meant to be doing, and some vanity mixed in as well, good job there were wing mirrors so she could check her makeup before going on track to drive a deadly weapon @180mph. Most people watching 👀 this video will have heard of “TopGear”, but for those that haven’t it is a tv 📺 show for petrolheads made here in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧, but one of the presenters, Richard Hammond, a very experienced and talented driver (except for jet powered dragsters, but that a different story) managed to get a test drive in an F1 car, not the current version of the car but I believe the previous years car, and he couldn’t even get it moving, and when he eventually got the car moving he couldn’t get the tyres up to temperature (couldn’t go fast enough) and a similar situation with the brakes, he just kept trying but inevitably he kept spinning out and didn’t have the brakes working properly, so how on earth did they think that a driver who had never scored a point in whatever Formula she was in, had multiple DNF & DNQs and was completely useless could just jump into F1 and NOT embarrass the team, her self and her family is beyond my comprehension, didn’t anyone in the team management or F1 administration look 👀 at her racing career and think “NO, not good enough” or think about how dangerous it was to let her drive without the pedigree to actually control an F1 car……….obviously not, maybe they still had $$$$ signs blinding them to the truth. Come on, you know that it was the car that was not good enough for her, or her teammate, to qualify at the Mexican Grand Prix, it couldn’t have been her inability to drive the car…surely not.

[@martinda7446]

F3000 driver Italian Giovanna Amati who was signed to Brabham at the beginning of the 1992 season. She failed to qualify for three races in which she was entered. She was replaced by Damon Hill, who also failed to qualify the same car in 6 out of the 8 following races he entered. Brabham lead driver that season was Eric Van De Poele who only managed to qualify once and after 11 races the team folded. (Wiki) I think she was/is amazing.

Why do some people say women can't get into F1 there's been women like this before, unfortunately they suck.
