[@christopherbrooks5548]

The bird amongst friends is pretty common here in America as well. Thanks for the video Kym, always love these post you do.

[@ross-carlson]

Absolutely it is - among those of us who are normal and have a sense of humor.

[@95mushroom]

My friend told me Colapinto looks like the offspring of Leclerc and Javier Bardem, and I can't unsee it... Almost unsettling.

[@ross-carlson]

Damn you DAMN YOU as you're totally right and now I can't unsee it either!!! DAMN YOU!!!! :D

[@theempires5]

What have you done, you monster?!! Now I can't unsee it

Such a lovely video, and Mariana showing up was a nice surprise

[@KymIllman]

Yes it was!

[@thegreatjogatsby6460]

Kym can you do a video on how the f1 driver market works with all the managers and agents? Like how drivers can bring sponsors with them to get a more favorable seat at a team

[@sayaIbnuFajar]

My favorite video so far, love seeing different personalities popping up on your frame. Would love to see more of these.

[@ArimyLoreley]

Yes, I agree! It's nice to see everyone

[@KymIllman]

More to come!

Now THAT is a clickbait THUMBNAIL and TITLE if I have ever seen one

[@lemonoeye]

I'd like to believe it will last till they're old 😂

I figure he was saying hi as as soon as I saw the title lol😂

[@2roamcom]

Hell yeah its the world we live in !

I guess you were fruking disappointed about the fact that he didn't talk about the "bird" for 9 and a half minutes... 😂😂😂

How's it clickbait if it happened

[@seekhearts]

love your work Kum

[@wanttogetupgoahead]

Kym, you are better for F1 than Drive to Survive. Good on you!

[@bennylloyd-willner9667]

DTS to make "unracy" people interested by doing "fake by editing", Kym for proper content when you're a true F1 fan❤

[@DaneGarratt]

Another great video thanks for all the effort that you put in and I can't wait to see more videos.

[@TreeHuggingDad]

I like that you are bringing in other people on camera, such as the Brazilian reporter and other photographer. Just good fun.

I loved the moment with Mariana. Always great to know what subjects might get you in trouble!

So cool to see some fresh young faces coming into F1 at last. Next season will be very interesting.

🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Kym, I saw a comment describing you as being better for F1 than DTS. Let me say it's so true! You're the nicest guy ever. So respectful and polite with everybody. Loving your content. Thanks for giving Franco so much relevance. You have a new subscriber here. 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷

[@cinque1961]

That logo on Lando's hat is giving the bird to everyone.

[@seashackf1]

No one’s getting upset about giving the finger to a friend. Many Americans also do the exact same thing.

[@johnk1589]

Yeah I don't know where Kym got that from

[@MrFormulaOne2011]

Yeah I still do that to my buddies haha

[@95mushroom]

@@johnk1589 My guess is we (Americans) still use it in a higher percentage in aggressive/threatening ways as well, and not more exclusively in joking/funny ways like in other countries. Kym's probably just been exposed to the meaner side of it in the US.

[@sandalphoncpu]

And many Americans get offended by that. Especially in California

[@johnk1589]

@@sandalphoncpu no they don't and I live in California, you're imagining things

[@tomporcinus]

Hi Kym, we need to know: at 4:05 is that a Cartier watch that Albon is wearing? Also, it was great to see you interacting with the Brazilian broadcaster talking about Franco. Thanks for your content.

[@alman-world]

Thanks Kym - always enjoy these vlogs

[@KymIllman]

Happy to hear

[@EJL88]

Great cameo. I enjoy your content immensely. I do also enjoy cameo appearances by others in the sport. Like the gentleman that added to your Vegas track info video. Thank you and your team for all the hard work.

Hi "Kum" Illman...nice video and as usual huuuuuge hugs from Colombia

[@gavindawson3108]

Great video as always Kum!

[@Elephanthajsnen]

Incredible event between Carlos and Lando

[@ross-carlson]

Speaking as a NORMAL American flipping the bird in that way is ABSOLUTELY a friendly gesture - only when you flip it at a stranger or an enemy does it mean something "bad". So just know that many of us do have a sense of humor and get it.

[@mark82421]

Great stories ! these made my day.... fingers crossed for Max this weekend 🙂

[@saintuk70]

awesome, so funny. Digital signs look great, but I like the Mclaren with their digital panels on the car.

[@ElPierdolito]

Thank you Sir Kum Illman :D ahaha, nice video, again chock full of info.

[@liukin95]

Oh that sign at the end made me chuckle Kym 😂 I'm a Russian speaker, and in Cyrillic an "i" sound is actually the letter "и", which in handwritten form normally looks like a letter "u". That's how I read it anyway. 🙂

[@hipotenuza5663]

Same in Macedonian language Ким.

[@liukin95]

@@hipotenuza5663 yeah I believe it’s the same in all languages that uses the Cyrillic alphabet.

[@hipotenuza5663]

​@@liukin95 probably, but we do have some different letters. Written in Latin alphabet Kum means godfather in Macedonian, кум. Edit: Кум Илман 😂

[@ToneFuentes]

Gooray to you, Kym.

[@BeauMonday]

the logo on Lando’s hat, for Alo? Looks like someone giving a middle finger. I bet that’s the genesis of this little private joke between them

7:31 - I remember a team in WSBK having video panels like that covering the entire garage. And it was one of the smaller teams. Not sure if they still have it.

American here: Not sure what “toey” means, lol but for as long as I can remember, my friends and I often flip each other the bird. It can be used to tell someone to F off. But it is often used just as Carlos used it.

As an Aussie I totally get this 😂 Do you think it’s the hat? I reckon Sainz is teasing him.

[@manuelortiz7731]

Mercado libre is actually Ebay

[@GloomGaiGar]

It's not just the finger but the angle of it and the looseness of the arm along with the facial expression. It's easy to tell it isn't out of malice.

[@413TomaccoRoad]

Spicy.

Yes. But there are many restrictions. Sometimes I need to shoot outside the track to do things like interviewing people.
