And Williams
BUUUUUUUUuuuuuurrrnn!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
also crashed in hungary between Germany & Hungary in 2019
Another thing to note is that each car alongwith it's engine and chassis goes back to the home factory after each race for inspection, repairs, servicing, upgrading and repainting and if flown back to the race weekend. Every race. No exceptions
thats actually nuts
What if it crashed
@@bigazTV Depends! Most of the time parts just... snap off. They can replace a wing in a pit stop. It's very very rare that the chassis gets replaced
@@bigazTV They used to allow a ''t-car'' but not anymore.
If it's minor damage they can usually repair it, if it's super major ( driver injured too), that car may be pulled out.
Seven of the ten teams are based in England.

This video was my first intro to F1. After watching this I spent the rest of the day learning everything about the sport. The first race I watched was Belgium 2018, and I haven't missed a race since. Thank you so much.
Spa is one of the best racetracks in the world so i am not surprised :)

After two years, what amazed me is that Sam’s video about F1 logistics is still better than pretty much any video on youtube about F1 logistics.
Yes, better than what F1 officially made.
The only thing good about the F1 channel is again the drivers
But he can't even pronounce names of stuff correct
Wait, you don't want your logistics video to say "thanks to DHL" every 5 seconds?
@@alecjones4135 you will live
and after 4 years it's still better^)
Back in the day a man by himself drove his car to Lemans, won the race, and took the trophy home in the racecar.
and it was uphill bothways
Sounds very stupid but ok
In the rain without windows
Capitalism is a bitch
Tbh i could see it, in motocross the bikes used to just be street bikes with dirt tires and all the excess lights and accessories removed, guys would ride across the country to a race with a backpack and tent, get to the race, take all the lights, accessories etc off to race, then put it all back on to ride hone after
I wonder how many 10mm sockets get lost with all this traveling.
All of them, I'd imagine.
ryan02s2k 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👏
ryan02s2k none I would think. Those teams probably have every little piece of equipment so well organized, I’m sure nothing gets lost.
Or adapters
no sockets are lost, you loose a socket and you loose your job! this is formula 1 simple as.

Not really insane, you should aware the spring holiday logistics in china. Every year we are like moving half of the whole world inside mainland China and revert the process when the holiday ends.
Yautah What are you talking about?
The Super Bowl of Logistics.
Imagine being in williams and doing all this stuff just to know youll be last. So sad. All that money wasted could be spent on more innovations for the car
Facts
But they have to, I think F1 actually can fine them for missing a championship race
Does being last even pay? Or do you completely lose out and you might as well not even show up?
@@FeelMyBirdie I mean it does to a certain degree, its not like the teams get paid through prize money. But if you were petronus would you rather give your money to a successful team or a failing team?
@array s times change. F1 has shifted in the direction of engineering and huge budgets. Gone are the days where small teams can make it at the top, mercedes swallows them up.
You should do one on the logistics of a concert tour. Most people have no idea that the average arena concert is built starting at 6am day of show and will be out the door by 1am, just hours after the last song. It's an incredible ballet of trucking, rigging, logistics, catering, buses, staffing, advance work, and of course, a few hours for the show itself. It's an incredible world!
For the bigger concerts, where you have a "wider stage" or effects, there is also the pre-day assembly. Basically, everything gets build from ground zero.
That gives more time for accurate checks, considering many elements are up in the aire, and safety on stage and around is important.
The "magic" happens after the last song, as you said. It takes less than 5 hours to take down everything and pack it directly in the tens of lorries queuing.
The work is at faster step, but T-Shirts codes are used for teams, in order to make the job run smooth. Every team (lights, ground cables, sound etc.) has a coloured t-shirt designated, and that worker sticks only to that colour.
The team leaders normally have black or grey t-shirt, and they coordonate exclusively the prople with their assigned colour (for me was blue on sound, for example). Normally, yellow gets ground and trucks, easier for them to be visible in the night...
So, whenever a concert finishes, and you are still singing in the crowd... when the stage gets stormed by staff in all coloured t-shirt is not for the party purposes. Every one wears a colour that fits him/her the job for the next hours 😉
logistics for a concert? All within a few hours afterlast song?

@@georgeboitan8926 in my country the event organisers just hire the equipment directly from the city they are going to.
Hey everyone! I hope you enjoy this video! It's definitely a different type of topic but hopefully you find it as interesting as I do. The good news is that this is actually an extra video (even though it's releasing on the normal day) so next week we'll be back with another more normal (read: plane) video!
Brian from Real Engineering also just released a related video on the Physics of Racing Games which you should watch once you're done with this: czcams.com/video/Xz8RRxYwrhg/video.html
Wendover Productions You know about F1?!?!
Edit: Btw Baku is technically in Europe so not called a fly-away race though it’s kinda far away from the rest of Europe so yes it kinda is a fly-away race but kinda not
This is a great video. I would request that you post more videos or increase the frequency to 3 videos per month minimum. they are very educative. Thank you
On your map of race locations instead of Austin it says Elroy... Not sure if you were aware or not
We know another plane video is coming nevertheless don’t worry we got u bruh
Awesome to see a Formula 1 video but all your content is god like anyways
We were lucky to go to Monaco during race week.
I went down to pit lane and was allowed to walk down and talk to some of the teams. The garages were empty, so went back to hotel and then went back the next morning and it was completely built and only thing they were doing was connecting the pit wall with comms cabling.
Absolutely mind blowing demonstration of team work.
And the craziest thing is that this video didn't even mention the preparations of street circuit race tracks. Those are insane (e.g. look up Monaco GP preparation)
And then there is the night race in Singapore....

Sponsored by a massive video game??? Well done, Sam! Channel progression at its finest!
Ubisoft should start taking notes from Rockstar on how to make a proper game.
I think this is Sam's second video game sponsorship as I am positive Assassins creed origins sponsored Half as Interesting
They do, in the hieroglyphs video on Half as Interesting (his second channel), he was sponsored by AC Origins.
david westernall, FU** YOU!
Crew 2 isn't that bad. Still needs more cars though.
I'm now all of a sudden interested in Formula 1
You are lucky it's a raceweek in Germany
Starting with Free practice 1 and 2 on Friday, FP3 and qualifying on Saturday and the Race on Sunday and many more events between and before these events
Hope you enjoy
Scalelectic racing in Murica is cheaper but sends you dizzy
Yeah I’ve gotten a sudden urge as well
@@Mando_ar what an introduction to F1.
@@Mando_ar ah yes, Germany
21 races worldwide - in Elroy? Most people know this as Austin, Texas.
At least they were consistent. "Mogyoród" and "Montmelo" would mean "Budapest" and "Barcelona" to most people.
@@Rager_U Then Melbourne should be Albert Park? I think the majority on that list are the major cities/towns rather than the suburb.
@@mmmm_001 Montmelo is a separate city located in the metropolitan area of Barcelona
@@mmmm_001 ...n Singapore would become Marina Bay/Centre instead :P
Exige000 then Spielberg would be the Red Bull Ring. So it isnt. Its just called Austrian GP
Usually a sponsor is mentioned at the beginning as common practice so people know they're being influenced. But I was surprized there even was a sponsor because the quality was outstanding. I have no interest in Formula 1 whatsoever but this was just incredibly interesting.
Zodayn same
but it WAS mentioned at the start. Agreed though, quality, as usual, was outstanding.
this is how you sponsor the channel 'extra credits' does the same thing with sponsors, i think they may have even started the idea of sponsoring channels with a hands off approach as long as the content pertains to the product of the sponsor
Zodayn Lmao recently F1 really didn’t bring anything to give me interest in it. Touring cars, nascar and even drifting are much more interesting than f1
Zodayn “This video was made possible by ‘The Crew 2’” - 1 second into the video.
Logistically challenged sounds like a way to call someone sloppy.
Stop yapping bro
Great video. You should do more of these. I love this channel and the normal topics, but these are like a little bonus. You could do a whole series on logistics for different sports, concert tours, events, conventions, and more. It would also be interesting to see a series on how certain industries actually operate or have evolved, like: mining, farming, forrestry, conservation, education, and various public services.

When i was a mix and up until a few couple years after getting my tractor trailer license, I always wanted to be a racecar hauler.
Keep up the great work wendoverproductions!!!
I know some teams have done shorter pieces for their own youtube channels and there is Netflix docs on the way but I would love to see an in depth documentary on how this is all done, it's absolutely insane how little the driver realistically matters within the team as one mishap on a sunday after the race could end the next weekend completely!
This is probably the most interesting CZcams channel ever.
LOVE IT!
That's awesome! Seems like pure devotion and absolute discipline suit those making the races possible
Thanks so much for making this video. I've always been curious as to how some teams can have such massive structures, basically buildings, in the paddock. To find out they're motor homes and can be built in two days is mind-boggling.
I like wendover productions.
I like formula 1.
=> I like this video.
I like this comment.

uhhh...
Wendover f1
Kakashi Hatake Formula Wendover sounds better
I know your video is already four years old but the logistics of F1 are really impressing. Thank you so much for this amazing video.
I think the most valuable team has changed drastically to Mercedes at 4 billion now.
this was in 2018
Ferrari is still most valued with mercedes at second and rb at third
This is due to ferrari being the most recognizable team even for a non f1 guy, the scarlet car is unmistakable.
@@sarthakdangol4244 WRONG
@@Cle_M3he's actually right and his comment still holds true even today. Don't know where you got your info that he's wrong.
@@rjo3483 I came to a reasonable conclusion, instead of basing my entire view point on assumptions and social media. It must be hard to live a normal life having that low of an IQ.
YAY, Wendover uploaded
Also pretty interesting video I didn't think it would take that much time and planning to do a race, great video as always.
I’m so glad to see two of my most favorite things combine, Wendover productions and formula one
wow...ive been amazed at hearing militaries being able to forward deploy troops inside of 48hrs but this is insane. i suddenly have a great desire to be part of this big working logistical system :)
Thanks for the info about formula one logistics planning and execution. I now have a greater appreciation of what each of the f1 teams do to prepare for each race. I'm subscribing to this channel.
Sam making videos on the F1 has made my day!
I never knew just how much effort goes in to each race, that has blown my mind!
A Formula One related video! Best notification from you by far!
Bro this is insane. Thank you so much for it! Keep making more.
I enjoyed this, and have always wondered about the logistics of moving everything from race to race. Shame the video was short, I would have liked a more detailed account of this huge operation as I find it fascinating.
Sounds so tiresome and stressful. But on the positive side, you can travel around the world.
I haven't taken a shower for 7 weeks, but why are u everywhere bang? Lmao
I don't think they see much aside from the airport and the track
exactly
it's a labor of love, i'm sure. but yeah, it would be pretty sweet to loop the globe a few times a year lol

Really good video. Had it in my watch later for more than 2 years and only decided to check it out now and i really should have sooner. Explained a lot of things really well and now I want to know so much more
Thank you for this information. Have watched Formula 1 for 6+ years and have wondered about all the logistics of it all. Did not realize how much the team members had to tear down and put up every race.
Yey an F1 vid from Wendover!

Perfectly described the weekend before finals week
Thank you for putting the "é" in Montréal on the map! Natively from there it's nice to see that it's represented as a french speaking city!
Kimi after watching this vid:”Bwoah,I just go home,sleep eat then go to next track and drive,I don’t know Bwoah”
Great video. It would be interesting to hear how the teams prepare for the possibility of sea containers being lost (many are every year) or planes going down. They would have to have a strategy for it regardless of how unlikely an event it would be
OH MY GOODNESS ME SAM MAKES A VIDEO ABOUT F1 THIS IS NOT A DRILL AAAAAAAA
Would you say it's time to oil up?
Same
GOOD 'OL RUB
Holy shit if only I was that organised
“Accurately recreated the racing I did at Spielberg” this cracked me up😂like who in their right mind wud play the crew for accurate racing😂
I can't believe Steven Spielberg had a city named after him
I've never heard of a city called Steven.
Many cities/towns have jewish names....spielberg is not uncommon lol
Ангел Пасков spielberg isnt jewish name lol
Ангел Пасков r/wooosh
Backwards. He got his family name from the small township that existed since before 1700's.
Excuse me but crew are also Athletes, try pulling a 30 Hour shift then you will see my meaning. Motoracing is full on!
Try operating an airgun weighing 30 Kgs set to 300 Lbs/ Feet of torque during an F1 wheel change, that's strength.
No kidding. Being a Carnie or Roadie has the same sort of demands. Set it up, sleep a few hours, do the show, pack it up around midnight, drive 100-300 miles, set it up and do it again! (Remember, people can die if you do any part of it wrong.)
I thought the logistics for NASCAR was hard, I now have a greater appreciation for Formula 1.
NASCAR only operate in one country, F1 the whole world.
@@barryfowles-zl5ib America is still massive. If F1 didn't have locations like China and Australia, most of the races wouldn't be that far and the 1000 miles from Austria to England easily fits in a few states.
@@ALittleMessi So Brazil, Singapore, Japan, Azerbaijan, Canada, Vietnam, Mexico, andAbu Dhabi are just local then? Also, as so many Americans tend to do, believe that it's just about distance when transporting the teams to the different countries, things like customs at borders and local laws have to be factored into the equation, To drive from say, New York to California is a long distance, but you don't have to clear customs entering every State.
@@ALittleMessi NASCAR logistics are no where near F1.
Very good video, well done! Awesome graphics/infographics.
I love the way u put the sponsor at the end instead of having us wait forever to get into the actual vid
Formula 1 is the definition of a bunch of logistics managers making life difficult for themselves
Wait Discord is worth a billion dollars?
Reksrat I use Discord and I’m not even sure what you pay for.
You can buy the premium that lets you use an animated profile picture and post unique emojis from your various servers to any other server. I think that's about it.
Limestone Butter adds
Discord is *valued* at roughly $1.65 billion. That is, in a recent round of funding, the company raised $50 million in exchange for a certain percentage of ownership (I estimate 3%). If this price-per-percentage were extended to the whole 100% of the company, it would cost $1.65 billion to purchase Discord.
But Discord itself doesn't have $1.65 billion. It's a market value.
SuperAngryPacman That makes sense. When Wendover said that Discord was valued at a billion dollars I was immediately confused.
Wow awesome work, out of this planet planning and marvelous execution.
I never would have thought Discord would be worth so much! Absolutely insane!
Thank you for spelling Montréal the correct way
Wendover mention my tiny counrty Bahrain, with accuret maps, locations and street navigation, *mindblowen* i feel hounerd.
Thank you for this video. I’ve been an F1 fan for years and always wondered how the logistics worked.
Same here
Great video, I love Wendover Productions as much as I love F1
This was unexpected, but in a good way. You should consider doing a video talking about the classic car market and/or Le Mans.
It really is a team effort.
First Reply to Justin Y. XD
SECOND REPLY! THE CREW 2 is the best
Guess you never heard of a racing team before. Pit stops, engineers and other shit. I always see you on Simple History haha.
Justin Y. Wait, you watch F1?
No shit
Thank you for telling the routine, I am working on trying to get into go karting so I can finally start formula
Always been interested in F1 logistics! Thanks for the vid
It's always a great day when wendover uploads!!!
As a creator, I like how you make even generally uninteresting stuff too damn interesting...
that requires lots of research and skill, I guess....
Is that a general statement or you don’t think F1 is interesting?
Dragjr 4065 haha I was about to ask the same thing!
Can I just speak for those creators who don't find F1 uninteresting? :p
Dragjr 4065 f1 is interesting, but how many times did you hear someone talks about the logistic behind it?
Omg episode about F1
Great see this on this chanel !!
Your videos are always interesting and very informative!!
It always amazes me how I always find the subject lame when I read the title but I find the video absolutely incredible.
you and Real Engineering posted on the same topic.
Probably because F1 just finished their first ever triple header (from France to Austria to England in three weeks)
Wasn't there a triple header last year?
Real Engineering and Wendover are good friends and do a podcast together
🤔🤔🤔🤔
stop using bots to like your comment
This sport never fails to amaze me.
Great video to explain how logistics are done in tight schedules of F1
This is a dream. I love it. Used to do similar stuff but not at this intensity. Very cool. I'd love to work on one of those teams.
Could you do more on F1/motorsport please it’s such an interesting topic (e.g. how smaller budget teams cope etc.) thanks!
When I was young and playing Mario cart, I thought that ‘Grand Prix’ I said ‘Grand Pricks’ as I didn’t know the ‘x’ was silent ahah
i was waiting for that squarespace transition! :D
i always wonder how this logistics are done, thank you very much for this video!
Wendover.. please stay for ever true to your subscribers meaning quality uploads, and not for sponsors.
I love all your videos.
A fun fact: It's actually genius that he used the place name "Elroy" at 3:29. While I thought it was a mistake, I looked on a map for the Circuit of the Americas and it turns out it's actually next to a small town called Elroy.
Damn I love this channel :D Every topic is interesting!
Amazing! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Man I saw this video and my face just lit up like “yes”.
Damn you did a really good job on this video. I stopped halfway through Real Engineering's video because it just played like a 10 minute ad. I almost ignored this because I figured it would be the same but I'm glad I didn't. There's no focus on a video game I don't care about in the main video content, and you focus on genuinely interesting stuff. Well done.
I don't personally like Ubisoft. But I am glad you had the opportunity to go out there and try out the real racing. And I can definitely support companies that support good content makers on youtube.
Wendover is my curiosity cure! I have always thought of the logistics of F1 and look Wendover answers it again for me with this video.
This funny american way of starting the week on sunday (makes sense, right?) really threw me off on those calendar graphics
K
Okay, Ben
not just muricans its a personal preference like here in southeast asia
@Alan hughes Um it always did? 7 day cycle comes from the bible, and Sunday is the first day of that week.
It's called weekEND for a reason.
Sounds like a pain in the balls year round for the staff. Great video. Thank you
Great video, I always wondered how they get all their stuff to the next circuit ready to go in a week.
This reminds me an odd amount of FRC teams (FIRST Robotics Competition) and there pits. Obviously much smaller scale, but everything has its place on your trailer, pits only open at a very specific time to ensure fairness and that the pits are ready ahead of time, and it all goes up and down in a few days.
0:14 "In motorsports, The human is only half the athlete, the vehicle is the other half."
Meanwhile at Ferrari: "What's my current position?"
Ferrari engineer: "You're sitting inside your car."
Very informative bud.
Competitive logistics! Everything Wendover ever dreamed of
What an amazing video! Thank you so much.
