title sequence 🤯
This is next level and the CGI is incredible! Combine this with the original and swap the audio and you’ll have the best F1 intro sequence ever
So just to recap…
Both Daniel Ricciardo & Zak Brown have confirmed that he’ll be staying for 2023, but yet people are still making up rumours that he’s being replaced next year?
Cool 🤙🏻
Finally after a meeting with the drivers, the FIA has removed the new wall at Turn 2 ahead of the

The intension was to stop drivers who had lost control going straight through the corner, but the "fix" resulted in drivers doing the same going over the painted grass...
I do hope we see a return of thermal cameras to F1 soon, it’s use I can’t see during a race but for analysis it would be great - much like the visor camera!
Might be speaking to the onboard guys about it soon, but the reason it stopped was from requests by the teams hating it 😂
Back in 2019 I reached out to FOM to collaborate doing an in-depth video on "How F1 Onboards Work" looking over live cameras, thermal cameras, 360° and more.
We had meetings and tried to find dates but 2020/21 happened with restrictions, team bubbles, etc.
Then came 2022... 1/3
Only just realised that McLaren's Unboxed YouTube series doesn't look like its being continued for 2024
A real shame as McLaren Racing were the first to give real insight into their races, creating the blueprint for so many teams, not only in F1 but other championships too
Quick reminder that at the British Grand Prix will be the first time on-site filming is taking place for Brad Pitt’s F1 film, featuring stunt drivers in modified F2 cars (looking like F1) and their own custom garage in the pit lane for characters Sonny Hayes & Joshua Pearce
Hey
@ScuderiaFerrari
, you could've at least emailed to ask if it was ok to use licensed archive footage that I've restored for your own commercial assets.
You've taken three clips which two of them I spent a week painting out the dust and scratches, very upset you would do this.
Where it all started...
📍 Monaco, Monte Carlo

70 years on, relive our first ever Grand Prix on the iconic streets of Monaco 🇲🇨 📹

Seeing the SkySportsF1 video go out does sting, as that's 4 years of countless emails and various meetings being scrapped.
Just disappointed that us YT creators have to accept these traditional TV limitations, but I hope that soon changes to allow us more access in future.

Might be wrong, but Ricciardo at F1’s HQ with race suit in hand, I expect today they were filming his bits for the F1 titles, photos and season interviews

, worked in it for 6 years and been a fan ever since, but yesterday's race was a real let down.
This season has turned into peloton racing, where on lap 22 no one is wants to lead so it just becomes pot luck and the passes aren't genuine - this NEEDS to be changed

@YouTube
With respect, you put content warnings and doing everything possible to tell viewers (especially young ones) of what to expect - which is kickass. But YouTube do need to treat all channels as if they don't, so it detects any of those warnings then it'll be age hit, which sucks.
Many questions being asked why, and unfortunately it's because of a wider issue facing all Formula 1 teams.
This year FOM has limited the amount of Behind The Scenes content that can go out onto YouTube, primarily due to it's crossover what Drive To Survive are capturing🙃
BIG F1 ONBOARD CAMERA UPDATE - Gyroscopic stabilization!
With the footage at x3 speed, we can see the camera position automatically stay horizontal. This means we can now see the incline of the high banked of corners, whereas before the cameras view was locked in place!
This is absolute bs, if you don’t call the car unsafe during the race using the meatball flag then you can’t do it afterwards.
Does this mean Lewis didn’t win Silverstone as he crossed the finish with only 3 wheels? No because he was able to finish and same applies here.
BREAKING: Fernando Alonso has received a 30-second penalty as his car was sent back on track in an unsafe condition
He drops down to P15, with Vettel (P7), Magnussen (P8), Tsunoda (P9) and Ocon (P10) all moving up in the points

Wednesday video has been 3 months in the making, and a huge team effort by everyone 🔥
We can't wait for you to see it BUT if any shots are out of focus, I blame him...
We planned to film at the French GP and heard that SkySportsF1 would now be there too, by coincidence they wanted to film the same video.
A week before the GP, I got an email saying my request was no longer granted, a policy had recently changed only allowing TV rights holders.
The last 4 videos on their YouTube channel have struggled to even reach 10k views, and now they expect these fans to be willing to pay for live races behind a paywall?
I think for many, this will be the nail in the coffin for Formula E’s future, huge L.
Just trying to work this out...
The Late Late Show With James Corden is on every weekday, but yet they still haven't put out their Mclaren piece from last weekend?? 😂
Hey
@FIAFormulaE
, can you tell whoever is doing the music to disconnect their phone? They keep getting calls and email sound notifications coming through the speakers 😂
People will look at the Sprint Race results today and simply think Daniel isn’t quick enough finishing behind Lando
But this isn’t the first time the team have kept him behind when he’s had the pace, and I’m not making excuses just cause he’s my favourite - it’s just frustrating
Isn’t it mad that Formula 1 doesn’t have a psychical store anywhere? (Pop-up shops don’t count)
So I had to double take when I saw this in Costco of old F1 shirts, jackets and hats being sold 😍

, Stefano Domenicali and the drivers this time last year in Bahrain, inspecting the 2022 cars all together 📺
Formula 1 has rejected Andretti's bid to join the grid in 2025 or 2026.
But honestly... what MORE does a brand-new team NEED to do in order to make this a reality?
YOU CAN GET MARRIED IN THE LAS VEGAS PADDOCK?!
Looking at Kym Illman’s construction update video (just behind him in the middle) and a post on Reddit, it looks like they’re setting up a Chapel in “stereotypical” Vegas fashion…
If you are at the

and encounter any abuse but can’t find security or stewards, head to the First Aid areas located around the circuit.
They have radios, they have a safe space and will help you 💚
Here’s the moment I found out all of my footage is unusable because my wireless microphone picked up inference whilst filming💀
Thanks

How Do Formula 1 Cars Broadcast Live Cameras?
Such as the 2x cameras on the roll hoop, over the shoulder, face camera, rear wing, front wing, 360°, visor camera and the returning pedal camera!
Does anyone else agree that
@F1
’s Paddock Pass needs to return to YouTube?
Became one of my favourite bits of content to watch in the lead up the races, but moving it last season to just the website was a big step backwards
One of main topics always surrounding Formula E is the noise the cars produce, I've never minded it but for some it's enough to not even watch which is a real shame.
So I've swapped the audio to a modified Formula 2 lap, and can't tell if it works or not (ignoring the gearshifts)
