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

Nikita Mazepin… Yuji Ide… and even the one and only Lord Mahaveer…
They’re some of the worst drivers of all time, and you probably know them because of these.
Or because you’ve been subscribed to me for a while haha
But what if I told you there’s a driver you’ve never heard of who’s as horrific as them? Maybe even worse than all 3 combined. With an even crazier story?
It’s a story of secret training sessions, getting kidnapped yep, you heard that right, having some big-shot contacts, burning through loads of cash, and crashing all over the place…
This is the story of the worst racer you’ve never heard of.

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!

[@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. 😅

[@EleanorPeterson]

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 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.

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.

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.

Judging by the thumbnail I'd say it was Gary Sinise 🤣

[@crippledbox1162]

I swear to God, if you put Lella Lombardi against this girl, Lella would absolutely wipe the floor with her.

[@DergyTheDragon]

I don’t watch follow or care about F1 but these videos are just so damn entertaining I can’t help but binge them

[@Mogzilla86]

Good video, she set women in motorsport back a long way for a long time

[@Ayah_Mia]

Also to include Alex Yoong as one of the worst-ever F1 drivers ffs🤬🤬

[@dubaikay5871]

Nope never heard of him but This upload does make my day 🔥

[@DailyFuelUp]

Hope you enjoy the vid mate ❤️

[@Admiralkirk95]

She had the gault to say people were treating her badly cause she was 'getting close to 1/2 position. What are you talking about lady. They gave you the cold shoulder cause you were a dud. And worse..... replaced by a genuine champion. And a rule was created by her to keep people like her out.... sadly it's irrelevent now due to the lack of teams.

[@DeceiverIX]

Hmmm... Turns out that lad Hill was quite quick....

[@omarsyed1980]

"They accept you when you are way behind them. When you start to get closer, to a pole position, or be in 1st or be in 2nd row.. They don't even talk to you anymore in the boxes." From someone who managed 3rd at best in her whole career, which was paid for by daddy.

[@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 😂😂😂

[@Macmax7077]

Did you forget Andretti when he came in from Indy and could not complete a race?

[@NotYou9311]

Gee whiz... I did 3 years in Formula Ford, many years ago. So, can I have a seat with Ferrari, Red Bull, or Mercedes ??? Maybe, Aston Martin (since Adrian Newey is going there) ?? With the paychecks to match ? Why not ?? They seem to hire anybody...

[@MCPunk55]

Even in a regular car, using the reverse gear 247 times in a row will destroy your gear box... Ai ai ai... the FIA really needs to stop taking bribes and start vetting its drivers.

[@bearcatracing007]

If only they had a finishing system with points, based on where you finish. That way they would of know how bad she was....

[@gokublack4211]

Replaced with hill 🤣, watching hill becoming a world champion is probably a bigger wound

[@dazzlernator]

I've definitely heard of her but that's a sign of my age remembering her for failing to qualify.

[@SHDW-nf2ki]

I always feel kind of bad for these pay drivers. Cause they'll never know how it feels to actually achieve something, they have so much wealth and opportunity yet it just never amounts to anything really beautiful and I think they know that. Its why so many of them act shallow and defensive in interviews. Always dodging the blame because they've never built anything to *actually* be proud of so when they have to take flack for something (no matter how small) it must be incredibly painful.

[@gouravchakraborty9801]

Ah yes, Danica Patrick of F1

[@Cloxxki]

There are thousands of sim racers with more talent and dedication, of which probably half have the balls and skill transferring over to real cars. They just don't have rich dads. Some have the talent to race in F1, but never will.

[@louscannon6265]

The first DEI experiment paved the way for every single one since....

[@timo4463]

woooooooow you are a moron lets see how many women do racing i know none lets see how many dudes do it i know 3 from my school time just statistically you are destroyed already

[@Racer63.]

Well, if one see Damon first races with Brabham the gaps were the same. In Spain he was 7.5 slower than pole and in San Marino 6.5 seconds. Perry McCarthy was 15.6 seconds slower in that qualy.

[@julianbatcheler9970]

At the tender age of ten I was at the qualifying for the 76 British Grand Prix, and saw one of the women competitors on the track. Not sure which one as I gather there were two. My dad pointed her out.

[@WhiteSox67]

I didn’t know Martina Navratilova was in Formula 1

[@zesolodar]

f4, f3, f2, and f1 there needs to be a system where your not eligible to move up if you dont have a certain amount of points or finish in a certain spot in the standings. like if you want to go from f4 to f3 it should be a requirement you have to finish in the top ten of the standings, when you want to go to f2 from f3 you have to finish in the top 5 in standin.... it would keep out alot of people like this who arent deserving and are frankly just a danger

[@seanoxborough5830]

Na stroll is the worsed, binned his car twice on warm up laps😅😅

[@Doviruses.existbaileyonodysee]

moral. money talks. she enjoyed racing cars even if she wasn't world class..

[@afrikasmith1049]

Moral of the story: Some people should be told by their parents that they should never follow their dreams rather they are rich or poor.

[@den2k885]

OVVIAMENTE Andreotti 😂😂 the man was a devil

[@VicarOfMayhem]

You assume that I wasn't on the F1 scene in 1992, wrong! Not only do I remember Giovanna, I've known who she was since way back then!

[@Cloxxki]

I'm old enough to remember police shooting at feet so there would be a criminal to interrogate.

[@Digidi4]

I wonder how many talented drivers were if everyone on the planet got a chance.

[@jarikinnunen1718]

She had too weak neck. She did tilt head to inside of corner. In braking it`s worse. I have experience of blurry vision and neck pain in braking.

[@Andrew-p7i2d]

Damn I typed in the title to watch on my phone and under the thumbnail Daniel riccardo in an ad popped up. They don’t have to do that to him damn

[@phaenius]

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

[@rickmassey1272]

How would Giovanna Amati know how a woman in 2nd or pole position would be treated?..SHE NEVER GOT CLOSE TO BEING IN THOSE POSITIONS.

[@SquadGamersHQ]

Can you make a ayrton senna documentary

[@DailyFuelUp]

I already did mate 💪🏻

[@Eli5idk]

he made one 2 weeks ago, i recommend watching it, its great

[@Shahwezz]

@@Eli5idk I didn’t knew dailyFuelUp has a hype man

[@charlesdarwin7253]

Who is Ayrton Senna? Never hear of her.

[@new_yorker1]

Her? Ayrton Senna was a man, one of the greatest f1 racers in history

[@angryyankee9184]

Makes you wonder how she'd have done if she stuck with motorcycles.

[@tzeffsmainchannel]

What a depressing story! I feel *sad* for her. Money can't (always) buy happiness! At least she ended her career with a "high note"!

[@MCPunk55]

"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.

[@M14Bintang]

Bro! Can you make a video of W series and F1 Academy? Because in modern times today, people trying to avoid another Giovanna Amati.

[@greyestfox]

WTF was she talking about in that interview that people wouldn't talk to her if she qualified well when she failed to qualify in all F1 attempts? Too many dollars not enough sense.

[@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.

[@Elemental_Entity]

Stroll is a talentless imbecile!!

[@Quattro_Joe]

😂😂😂😂give over

[@natejackorjillkate4136]

Why you doing them so dirty with the crossed eyes photoshop in the thumbnails? lmaooo

[@malfunction8165]

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.

[@sub_playz_yt4626]

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