same here mate, the best season ever in f1, and although the racing itself on that lap was incredible, croft can just generate the excitement on the tip of his tongue. what a race. what a season
Actually he had cramp in his leg and couldn't hit the brakes hard enough. He hadn't meant to go for it there. Terrible defending by lewis. I would have expected him to be defending like Perez was earlier in the race, not just leave the door wide open and let him past
bro i remember i lost it when he overtook there. i thought hamilton was gonna pass him back on the straight and he would lose. then again, thats just how verstappen is as a driver. goes for it at the first opportunity
That half of a lap of Checo's giving Max that 6 seconds or so back was hair raising. It was like watching some comeback kid disney sports movie from the 90s.
dont forget super lucky hammilton all the season ... remember ocon crash with max on lap overtake ..... last race lewis crash 2 time and car still work ..... 15 sec pit stop for max ..... silverstone and .......
Uh no. Those years had a fair championship fight between the drivers. 2021 was decided by the race director breaking the rules, and he got fired after so don't tell me I'm wrong
@@mcxix2742yeah he clearly was stressed about the situation and made some questionable choices. First they say lapped cars will not be allowed to overtake, and then suddenly they are allowed to? Lewis and Mercedes had all the rights to be upset, im happy for Max tho
@@DefenderOfLogic what you seem to neglect is the fact that the real human error that cost Hamilton the championship is that easily avoidable lock up at Baku.
One of my favorite bits of racing I have ever seen. I expected Checo to slow down Lewis by maybe a second or two at most, since the Merc’s pace was so strong. I was at the edge of my seat every moment
@@tommik4872 bottas agreed to equal status no? checo was given the seat solely to be a 2nd driver and support max. which he agreed. I dont think bottas agreed to be a 2nd driver?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Checo drive so hard when he was against Hamilton. You can truly see the passion he had for his teammate to go past his limit to give max the advantage. Enough to make a grown man cry
Literal tears happened when watching this recap and seeing that again. Didn’t realize just how important that was until after the race ended. Sheer will
In the end it really meant nothing because Lewis left Max behind as soon as he cleared Checo and if it wasn’t for the caution Lewis would’ve beat max by at least 12 seconds
This was the first season I followed F1, and what a lucky man I was, to witness this amazing moment, I do remember that my galaxy watch notified me that my heart beat was too high, unbelivable finale.
Sergio Perez fully deserves all the praise he gets for defending like a true champion. He's knows for tyre management but today he's shown his worth as the 2nd driver for red bull. Gasly, Albon would nowhere be able to eat 6 seconds like Perez did. He kept his individual goals aside for team glory and he's helped max with the title
@@granofuru As Mikko explains, if Hamilton had another 6 or 7 seconds on Verstappen, he would've been able to pit during the safety car for free. You need 14 seconds to pit during the safety car, when it was called Max was 11 behind hamilton. an extra 6 seconds means hamilton WOULD'VE pit and still emerged P1, and probably kept his lead. Though it would've been a great last lap fight between Max and Lewis on fresh softs.
@@sallagjanos7288 a lot of things weren’t his fault buddy let’s not forget bottas was off too this season they were both really unlucky lol mclaren was the only team to get a 1-2 this year
@@sallagjanos7288 It was his first year in a car that is notoriously difficult to drive. What did you expect? He made insane progression throughout the season, especially the last few races. I think they have a great number two driver moving forward.
Checo is an absolute beast. Some heavy lifting there. This season, Checo and Alonso has shown how F1 is a team sport. Not just in the pits but on track as well Give Checo a huge raise Red Bull! You owe him big time for this. And he deserves a giant slice of that celebratory cake.
Checo is a beast and an awesome teammate. I think next year he will find more consistency and continue to get more and more comfortable in the car that we all know is built for Max. Incredible job by Red Bull
I thought he showed some top notch racecraft. Direct message to Lewis that in equal cars, he won't just blaze through and keep winning with racers like Checo around.
Honestly checo's defending shows his class as one of the top drivers in the grid. Not many people have the racecraft to hold up a 7 time world champion on way older tyres.Absolute class by checo.
Honestly latifi's crashing shows his class as of the the top drivers in the grid. Not many people have the racecraft to crash on way older tyres.Absolute class by latifi.
@@MT-pv2rfListen here. Max is now a three time world champion. If he hadn’t crashed in Silverstone and Baku that year, he would have won the title before Abu Dhabi.
Still the most dramatic race I’ve ever witnessed. Nobody could’ve expected 2021 to go the way it did and if you witnessed it all it was really something.
Did not finish on the Podium, so was not fighting for the lead as did not have the pace. All he did was ruin Lewis's race. I don't care who won out of Lewis or Max, don't like either. But what Checo did in my mind was wrong. And I would say the same if Bottas did it to Max.
@Erik Netjes I said for me. I find it poor form. And have said it for years. It's not fair because another driver is interfering in 2 drivers racing. And the driver interfering is not on pace and does not finish on the podium. Anyway, it is my opinion.
"Checo is a legend" - Max, thank you Lewis and max for giving us such electric performance till the very end last lap... throughout the season it was amazing...
Dunno why they (Mercs) can't accept that Verstappen was the best driver this year but they were the best team. Its exactly how I would rate the season.
@@ThePablitocarvalho Do you see Bottas holding that well to Max? Because I don't. Not even there, but if he would be there I don't consider que would be able to do so.
Unreal scenes, what a season finale. Hats off to both drivers for bringing us all the best F1 season of all time. 👏👏 A season that will be remembered forever 🙌
It is nothing, he only had the advantage the he knew Hamilton will JUMP out of the way if he gets close to avoid contact! If it has been somewhere in the beginning of the season he would have just gone by....
Absolutely disgusting so many comments have been removed. F1 cannot stomach the fact that there were so many comments about the FIA breaking their own safety regulations and sporting rules to give an unfair 1 lap shootout for entertainment. And the fact that those comments had thousands of likes each!
"That was about all Perez can do" says the commentator "or was it?" Amazing move by Sergio Perez holding Hamilton back by "playing the ultimate team game". Checo Perez is Legend.
That may have been, but didn’t change much because with 5 laps left, Ham was leading by 11sec.. a sure done deal until that pure luck “the crash”.. the rest is history.. one lap on new soft tires vs expensed hard tires.. no brain there!
I just want to remind people that Bottas too... is an absolute Legend for the things he has done for Mercedes and Hamilton over the years, of playing the ultimate team game! I hope he does well in Alfa! Checo and Perez: Best sidekicks of F1!!

i wish i payed more attention to f1 that season, was following since 2017 but stopped in 2020, this is probably the best race of the hybrid era
Unreal scenes, what a season finale. Hats off to both drivers for bringing us all the best F1 season of all time. 👏👏 A season that will be remembered forever 🙌
What are we doing here, racing or Ping Pong!?
Yo, nice seeing you here!
Lewis was robbed. Period
Greatest season with the most cheap championship
@Ponfi If it was the other way around you would be the one whining. FIA broke their own rules, simple as that
After what Checo has done, he deserves at least 3 year contract.
They'll give him a bottle of Martini
He broke the second seat curse😂
Did it matter?
@@granofuru well yes, Ham didn’t pit because of it.
@@user-nu2it6kf2m I don't think it did matter

Yes for us this is a once in a lifetime. We were there observing it. Huge.
Best race , a pleasure to always come back and watch again 😅
I love watching hamilturd lose hehe
Fun fact: This has overtaken the 2021 Azerbaijan grand prix for the most viewed F1 race highlights video on CZcams.
And the main actors is the same: Checo & Lewis... yeaaaayyy 🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@ramkosmetikskincare4873 also Vettel and Gasly got the podium ever.
Well done Baku!
@@Bonobo1974 you're welcome!!!
I wonder if for the overtake as the most viewed video of F1 on youtube this video used DRS?
Max: “Checo is a legend”
GP: “Absolute animal”
Yes, he could've crashed into lewis like bottas did with max in hungary, but he did not. He fought hard but fair
Legal? Funny
@@mauromontecalvo4230 it was fair
@@jnbgames6320 that's what he said as well.
@@dinhdu5210 Max did nothing wrong.
Man this was one of the best Seasons to be a Redbull fan. Salute to Checo’s defense, beast.
3 years later and still one of the best season endings to ever exist
"Hamilton has to give that place back"
Yes, it was very nice of him to do it on the last lap!
Touche
Come on man 😂
💀
As a Mercedes’ fan I can’t even complain, that corner cutting and advantage he got was a bit unfair, so that last lap was kind of a bit of Karma
@@israelmoreno2117 Totally agreed
Perez was the star of the show. His heroics in helping Max get the fighting chance will be remembered
It's latifi 😅
Perez doesn’t hold a candle to the race director
@@moh.syaifulrohman4662 Yea him too 🤣
and latifi XD
Still cost Red Bull the constructors
Just here to see LH fans cry, not disappointed
Grow up. Your life must have been depressing from 2014 - 2020 😂😂😂
@@mcxix2742 it was fine, I was a LH fan myself but other toxic fans made me dislike the community they were brewing.
@@lenixxqthat's reasonable
Also lets take a second to appreciate Perez's teamwork. He selflessly put team first. Great sportsmanship. Happy to see RB back to winning ways.
I think you really need to give the credit to the safety car. That’s why Max won.
And Honda power!
Wasn't selfless he was deliberately being part of a team
@@matthewwilliamscott you mean latifi
It would be nice if Perez drove like that for himself
The glorious moment in Formula 1.
I revisit this vid when I’m mood off😅
me too! its simply lovely
What Checo has achieved in this race, is quite literally astonishing, what a guy
It is nothing, he only had the advantage the he knew Hamilton will JUMP out of the way if he gets close to avoid contact! If it has been somewhere in the beginning of the season he would have just gone by....
Like Turkey?
Perez may very well be the best defender in F1.
Now if he could just pass better.
@@michaelp4122 Sakhir 2020
Viva checo viva México
@@michaelp4122 He can pass very well his weakspot is mainly quali
Max giving Checo the props he deserves for that incredible defensive driving is so wholesome! Cheers to the red bulls 🤙🏼
Latifi deserves them too🙃
Perez is trash. He was UTTERLY DESTROYED BY MAX this season. Anything but a legend. Stop the simping.
@@stellar6643 well that car has been developed around max for probably the last 3 seasons so he was never going to match him
@@stellar6643 imagine being so repetitive to a 2nd driver that is suppose to be a pet for verstappen
1 lap, 1 mission
This is why latifi is the goat. He brought justice to the season for verstappen ❤
as the first season i start watching F1 again, this was the most exciting season i have ever watched live lol
Same!
I've watched Checo's defense like 1000 times, he's a beast 🔥🔥🙌🏼
Me too
absolute animal according to JP
@Joanna ok we don’t need your opinion Ms BOT
Absolutely disgusting so many comments have been removed. F1 cannot stomach the fact that there were so many comments about the FIA breaking their own safety regulations and sporting rules to give an unfair 1 lap shootout for entertainment. And the fact that those comments had thousands of likes each!
@@t.d6379 cry more. Hamilton deserved to lose and did
"That was about all Perez can do" says the commentator "or was it?" Amazing move by Sergio Perez holding Hamilton back by "playing the ultimate team game". Checo Perez is Legend.
That may have been, but didn’t change much because with 5 laps left, Ham was leading by 11sec.. a sure done deal until that pure luck “the crash”.. the rest is history.. one lap on new soft tires vs expensed hard tires.. no brain there!
@@bigben3205 Lewis would’ve had a free pit stop if checo hadn’t slowed Hamilton down. Verstappen gained over 8 seconds in those two laps
I just want to remind people that Bottas too... is an absolute Legend for the things he has done for Mercedes and Hamilton over the years, of playing the ultimate team game! I hope he does well in Alfa! Checo and Perez: Best sidekicks of F1!!

Rewatching this on the first day of testing for the 2024 season, and it still gets me hyped 😅
Watched it a 1000 times still enjoy it
One thing every one will agree upon in this race... CHECO IS A LEGEND
When Max said CHECO IS A LEGEND makes it even better
Latifi too
I really wanted Lewis to get his 8th, but Checo was a beast today🔥
Absolute Animal 🐏
It was kind of easy, Hamilton couldn’t push/ split / force anything against Perez, any touch would help Max. Perez had nothing to lose.
“This should be Verstappen’s only stop.” lol. 😂 hindsight what a season.
The newest 3 stop to victory
4 stop actually

I miss this season
1:55 “He will now drive past him, give him a cheery little wave. And that was about all Perez could do.”
Perez: And I took that personally.
People are always getting in trouble for talking too much... Jajajaja
@@gastongonzalezmedina2095 son de hocico flojo

Not gonna lie, this is where Red Bull won it for me.
Nailed it

What do you mean? Red Bull lost😂

the most dramatic sport moment i saw and will see in my life. Always get a smile when i see this back
