What would you BAN in F1? 🤔 | Martin Brundle’s Reddit AMA

[@MrFatdaz]

Me and my son met Martin at the British Grand Prix in about 2006, my son asked for an autograph but we didn’t have a pen between the three of us, Martin said we should come back with a pen after qualifying and he would signed an autograph, we turned up and through a crowd we saw Martin looking around for somebody, he spotted us and came straight over and asked if we had a pen and signed Joe’s race programme, we are still amazed by his kind gesture and still can’t believe that he remembered us and stood by his word, what an absolute gentleman.

Synthetic fuels are still a long way off I think. The cars will get slightly lighter with the removal of the mgu h which will also make them louder. Though the battery getting bigger will add back some of the weight. The size is partly a side effect of safety as you need space to crumple and absorb energy or we'd return to the dark days of drivers being serious injured or worse, same is true for modern road cars. It is not the crash that kills, but the rapid deceleration mincing organs. So I can't see how cars get smaller by too much. Perhaps easier to make tracks bigger I guess.

14:38 Gerhard Berger has the best Eddie Jordan story ever told: Once in the early 2000s (either 2002 or 2003, I don't exactly remember) Eddie Jordan and Ron Dennis were flying back to the UK together with Gerhard Berger on his plane, who was the head of motorsport for BMW at the time. Before they took off Gerhard made a BMW employee print out a fake engine supply contract between BMW and Minardi, which would grant the Italian backmarkers exclusive customer status. He then put that paper in his briefcase and on the plane he made sure that it sticks out a bit for Eddie and Ron to see, while Gerhard went to see the pilot. Eddie took the bait, sniffing a chance to get out of his engine contract with Ford and get the best V10 on the grid. So he kept nagging Gerhard for HOURS(!) to reconsider and give the BMW engines to Jordan instead. Back in the UK, Eddie didn't want to give up and went to Bernie Ecclestone to ask for help in trying to persuade Gerhard into giving Eddie the BMW engines. Bernie immediately called Gerhard to do something about this pesky irishman in his office. Gerhard couldn't keep his scheme alive anymore and told them it was all just a hoax 😂Unsurprisingly, Eddie wasn't quite as amused as Gerhard was about this situation.

Gerhard knew exactly that EJ would go down on his knees, begging him to get his hands on a BMW engine. Seeing EJ make a 180° turn, suddenly forgetting all about Ford and not being able to sleep for hours was quite a nice picture for Berger.

[@Neil_BT]

A bit old now, but at Monaco Martin was talking about the drivers that had come up from the then feeder series and called them GP2 bandits. Utterly legendary.

[@geofffield6493]

I was at Spa, when Martin drove the Williams, due to Mansell being injured or ill, and I can still remember taking a sharp intake of breath when he went flat out through Eau Rouge, in the wet. He was a vey talented driver and, given the right car, could have won the world championship. He also battled it out with Senna, in F3. Top man.

[@jamesdyer7960]

It's not often mentioned by Martin but the legacy of his '84 Tyrrell smash held him back. Same with Johnny, whom Martin, Damon etc all say is the British WDC we never had because of his F3000 Brands Hatch injuries. The kids who watch these days and make sweeping comments about 'average Brundle' or 'rubbish Herbert' don't have a clue about the risks drivers involved back then of there was even a medium level shunt let alone a big one. It maddens me (as i'm sure it still does Martin) that Flav dropped him for Patrese for '93 but also just how close he was to getting Mansell's drive in the Williams only for SFW to plump for Damon in the end... Sliding doors and all that.

[@geofffield6493]

Yes, I also remember Johnny’s accident at Brands - it looked unsurvivable, but he did, thankfully. F1 cars were not a good vehicle to have an accident in during the 60’s to 80’s, as a lot of talented drivers died in what would be a “walk away uninjured” scenario today. Roger Williamson, Jochen Rindt, Ronnie Peterson, Francois Cevert and Gilles Villeneuve all immediately come to mind, but there were many more, sadly.

[@bionicgeekgrrl]

Manufacturers won't want it as they're moving all of their road cars to hybrid and electric, especially in Europe. If f1 is no longer relevant to the road then they walk away and then you have no f1. Love or hate it, hybrid is here to stay and its at least getting some of the engine noise back in '26 with theremoval of the mgu h, which is effectively a big muffler. Never going to sound like the v12s or turbo v8s, but should be a bit better. The Manufacturers are all working on making batteries smaller, lighter and especially greener and its the best option currently as hydrogen is still a deadend due to cost and efficiency and efficiency pressurised storage being a potential crash hazard. Synthetic fuels may change that for racing but we're still a long way from that being viable for f1.

[@plisskenationbackfromthede3657]

​@bionicgeekgrrl the mgu h is literally the hybrid component. And they all agreed to ditch it

What I love most about him is that he is still an absolute racer.

Ban billionaires from having a say in how any of it is ran. Force them to work on such strict limits that billionaires are no longer interested in the sport and it opens back up to real people.

40 years of watching F1. As a lot of other fans will say, bring back the NOISE! Fans/spectators only real sensation of speed is from the noise. I don't care about lap times, if theyre quicker/slower than last year blah blah, as a spectator we only get 2 sensations, vision and sound. If I watch a V10 Ferrari round Monza from the 2000's, it SOUNDS fast. BTCC has ditched the hybrid system, F1 should do the same. Sustainable fuel and N/A engines are the way forward.

We're so lucky to have Martin commentating, he cheated death so many times. He's been there, done that, and bought the t-shirt.

[@a1ecu]

What a great man! Martin makes F1 a more enjoyable experience every race weekend!

[@MusicmusicmusicCoUk]

Martin is a class act. Such an asset to the Sky F1 team

[@samg8012]

Ban certain stewards who show an obvious bias. Ban all rotation and employ only full time stewards who do every race. But no full time for the likes of Hebert or Hill, who can't even try and hide their utter hatred of a certain driver and their absolute love of another.

[@jsmr451]

Nah, JH was 100% correct. Max is a grub on the track.

[@Wavelover33]

Yes it’s sickening to see their bias and lack of respect to anytime but Lewis and Lando. I wish we had a choice of other commu

[@TorqueFormulaWon]

The problem with that is the same stewards would have the same bias that they already have. Think about great white hope Warwick and Connelly. Just a pro Max fest from them and numerous others so whilst a nice idea of it was them two then no thanks...

[@TorqueFormulaWon]

​@@Wavelover33Yet again completely blind to all the fluffing of Max and in the last toner drivers like Alonso when he was in vogue in 2023... Lando has been given time penalties and Lewis gets them too. The guys name you're looking for is Max. He gets away with nearly everything and is enabled by the FIA and sky sports. They always find ways to make slam dunks seem ambiguous for Max, just to try and look objective. They are scared of looking biased and it shows with some of them. Some of them are just pro Max all the way. Karun and Brundle being two of them. Karun has been seen openly rooting for Max, excuses his shenanigans and most of the others on the team just laugh it off. It's ambiguous and the rules are at fault they tell the masses. Then skip over important parts of the rules whilst trying to explain their narrative. Brundle just shrugs it off as Max being a "real racer", "street fighter" (right about that one, just ask Ocon). He tried diverting blame but not even he said Mexico was ok, because it was indefensible, so instead he said "not this time Max" implying he has excused him before but won't (can't) this time because it was so egregious. Couldn't be more sky Max/ sky red bull than it is any other since the Ted boycott. Things got way worse then and now like the lefties do, they silence people they don't agree with, and it works sadly.

[@Mr59Kenzo]

the grid walks are entertaining Mr. Brundle thanks fpr all the fun

[@Pilot.0101]

I genuinely miss Martin when he's having a weekend off. I think Karun is great but Martin is a national treasure! ❤

[@Wavelover33]

I disagree. I’m fed up with Brundle and other f1 commentators continual bias towards uk drivers. honestly when Lando wins they are so elated - Lewis and it’s come in your pants time. I’m tired of it and by the recent comments in many utube posts a lot of people are sick of their non acknowledgement and disrespect to other drivers. Unfortunately I have to listen to their biased comments and It makes watching F1 a bit so enjoyable experience.

[@charlesgarcia4660]

If they want to keep the hybrid, give us N/A engines. By definition they will be louder (no exhaust gasses used up by turbos) and have to rev more. That is exactly what lmdh did and it works brilliantly withbcars like the caddillac prototype and the upcoming Valyrie V12 prototype

[@Jesus_H._Tap-DancingChrist]

Martin owning Christian Horner's driving career at Singapore was hilarious. Look it up if you haven't seen it.

[@pizza8031]

Martin your one of a kind, Such an amazing person, I feel like all the drivers are my hero’s but I put you above them thanks for everything you have done for the sport hopefully I’ll meet you some day

[@991carreras3]

Ban those stupid interviews with rap stars, football, soccer players and all the rest of them that roam the grid. What are they doing there? The focus should be on cars&drivers only thats why im watching.

[@PMC47]

Great interview and perspective as always. My all time favourite Brundleism was something like - He was never going to make that corner in a month of sundays. Classic.

[@kernowkennedy]

The Brundle family are one of the greatest things about modern live motorsport commentary. Alex Jacques & Alex Brundle are a mighty pairing. Martin is iconic, he’s raced and beaten Ayrton Senna 💪

[@myopenmind527]

Love Martin. ❤ He is such an addition to the sport. Sky F1 are very lucky to have him on the team. He’s universally respected and like by all involved in the sport. He has such a breadth of knowledge and a superb manner of delivery of his questions and comments. I wish him well.

[@Truffel12]

Johnny Herbert as a steward is the correct answer.

[@mikesullivan3420]

Gotta be trolling with this comment, right?
