Where is Mazepin on the list? He did it for a full year!
He was employed by Haas. Josh was talking about people who aren't taking part in the race and those who were spectating
@@adamstilldrives woooooosh
@@Obmelg 💀😂
LMFAO
Whoaaaaa
Sadly, I do also have to mention that Neil Horan (the priest from Silverstone) ruined the 2004 Olympic marathon by tackling the race leader into the guardrail. He eventually finished third.
Great video, Josh!
Yes, and the one who was leading was a brazilian
Came here just to say the same. Quite a shame
Once again, fuck that dude!!
To add to that, he was also arrested in Germany 2006 before he could do his protest, admitted that he was naked when a 7-year old girl tickled him while they played hide-and-seek (curiously he did not get charged for that) and says he only has one pair of underpants that he never washes because, and I quote "They always have to be ready". This guy truly is.....something
@@davidmoll7250 Too bad the guy didn’t get run over. What a scumbag.
4:38 That dude is the same one who also tackled Vanderlei de Lima in 2004 Olympics marathon in Athens arguably costing him the gold medal (Vanderlei was awarded later on the Pierre de Coubertin for how he behaved himself in spite of what happened, which is bigger than having gold medal).
I remember that, and Horan had to be rescued by the cops from a very angry crowd. Everyone knew de Lima had the race won, and thought he showed class not only getting up and finishing, but getting a Bronze out of it. The Pierre de Coubertin Medal was very much deserved
@@arthuralford Pierre de Coubertin medal is awarded for "Institutions with a pedagogical and educational role and to people who, through their research and the creation of intellectual works in the spirit of Pierre de Coubertin, contribute to the promotion of Olympism."
Like, yeah he definitely deserved a reward for being such a good sport about it, but I don't think this quite fits that description. But what do I know, he did get the reward so maybe that description is just a gudeline and showing exceptional sportsmanship does qualify.
the type of insufferable person that you would think gets jumped by an angry crowd after one of his dangerous and despicable stunts, but sadly in the real world there are no consequences for behavior like this.
that is true plus i am greek
Apophenia! 🧠
"It's human nature to do something catastrophically stupid" truer words were never spoken

What a great throwback!
“And Rosberg makes a mistake! He runs wide… WHY IS HE RUNNING!? GET IN THE CAR! YOU TWAT!” - Hugh Dennis
Whenever someone's out on a live track when they shouldn't be, my mind immediately locks on the fate of Tom Pryce and Frederick Jansen Van Vuuren.
One of the most horrific moments I've seen in motorsport.
Oh yes. I admit that my initial reaction to these Muppets is to force them to watch the uncensored video of that accident and show them what could have happened with them. They could do with a few nightmares.
@@y_fam_goeglyd That also crosses my mind too.
The fact that they could only identify Van Vuuren's remains was due to him not being present at a Marshall headcount at the end of the race. His Fire Extinguisher was found embedded in a car out in the car park beyond track limits too.
And Tom Pryce hits close to home for me as he's the only Welsh driver that has graced the sport.
Ah, you beat me to it. Purley's fight to get Williamson out of the car gets the tears rolling, if I so much as watch Tom Pryce and Jansen van Vuuren, I'm off to get my meds.
My parents and were at that race as teenagers, and my grandfather was there as well hosting a corporate party for the shipping company he worked for. My dad always talked about the terrible, unsettling calm, the number of people swarming around the pits, the police at Kyalami creating a 100-meter perimeter at the area around Crowthorne and the sight of an emotionally distraught Jacques Laffite who was sitting there crying and mumbling to himself in French. Apparently the marshals only found out it was Frederick when they called all of them together and Frederick didn’t show up.
Yep, that was my same initial thought.
Kyalami had its fair share of live track intruders. There's another one that springs to my mind, particularly because of a certain commentary in a particular season review - which stated outright the "idiot" that decided to run across the front straightaway at the beginning of the race.
"And in the end only one person got completely screwed over that day. It of course was... Charles Leclerc"
Zhou during the post race debrief: Yes Silverstone 2022 went exactly as I planned!!!
I was at that race in Silverstone in 2003, at just 8 years old. I can vividly remember that lunatic running down the straight, as me & my dad were sitting in seats very close to where he managed to get on the track. He's very lucky he wasn't killed, and that none of the drivers got hurt either. I never found out what happened to him afterwards, so good to hear that he got 2 months in jail.
Anyway that's something I will remember seeing forever. Thanks for covering it here :)
He did it other places too like, when he ruined the 2004 Olympic marathon
That race happened on the day I was born. From what I’ve heard, July 20th is some kind of religious event, so that might have had something to do with that lunatic’s invasion.
As an Irishman, I would say he didn't get enough prison time.
I remember the Webber radio about him. I think the lunatic can feel happy it was a marshall that caught him and not Mark...
@@Cancoillotteman There is a tale that Mark's father was watching the race, saw the lunatic running towards his son and turned the television off because he could not watch his son die. Someone had to telephone him and tell him they got the guy and Mark was okay.
Lewis: That’s some dangerous running man
“When did I do dangerous running?”
Zero respect for him after supporting those track invaders.
Why is he even in the sport if that’s how he feels. A hypocrite.
@@mamavswild Lewis' hypocrisy is all over the place. He sold all his ICE cars, including a limited edition Zonda that was made FOR HIM, because he didn't want to "pollute the planet". Guess what he drove to the 2023 Bahrain GP: a Mercedes G-wagen with a V8.
@@motorpolitan8884 (Fake American accent) thanks to all the guys back in the factory for all their hard work building my V8 g-wagon, not to mention my private jet and speedboat, let's keep pushing, hypocrisy conquers all"
@@mamavswild lmao yet when Carlos ot Alonso say that yet also use their v8s you don't call them hypocrites which ironically makes you a hypocrite
Bonus footage should include the idiots throwing Foster's beer cans at the 2005 Indianapolis Grand Prix and nearly hitting one of the Ferraris.
That was a crazy weekend.
To be honest, I think we can all excuse that. The fact that that sham went on in the first place was a disgrace - I say that but at the same time, I loved the controversy of it all when I was younger. F1 thrives on controversy, it would be boring without it.
Nah they were not right for that, but they were right to be mad. That one race got rid of a decade of progress for F1 in the states
Something very similar happened at the 1976 British Grand Prix - rumours that James Hunt wouldn’t be allowed to take the restart almost sparked a riot, with fans throwing bottles and cans on the track.
To be fair it does taste like crap.......
Man if you think that's bad, just wait until you see either the 2002 Pepsi 400 at Daytona or the 2004 Aaron's 499 at Talladega, both of which had controversial finishes that led to fans throwing beer cans (and whatever else they could find) onto the track as the cars came around for the cooldown lap (and in the case of Talladega, when Jeff Gordon was celebrating his win over Dale Jr.)
“You gigantic melt”…….that was lovely.
Fun fact, Ferrari has won every race where there was an track invader in race conditions. 2000 Germany, 2003 Britain, 2015 Singapore, and 2022 Britain.
Let's not forget the 2007 NASCAR Cup race at Watkins Glen. The race was red flagged, and the cars were stopped on the back straight. A fan got it into his head that, jumping over a guardrail, walking over to Matt Kenseth's car, and asking for an autograph was a Good Idea. The guy was arrested, and Kenseth though the whole thing was funny (because, NASCAR) and ended up sending him some Kenseth swag
I mean, if there's any time to do it
I remember seeing that live, at least he waited to do it until it was red flagged. Though unfortunately, Matt Kenseth did in fact say no and refused to sign.
As a NASCAR fan, Matt seems like a nice dude. I liked him for the few years I saw him race.
There was also the fan who ran across the track at Pocono in '93, almost getting hit by Petty and Allison.
Or the fan who climbed on top of the catch fence at Bristol.
I think the Singapore one is my favorite. Guy just seemed like he was trying to cross the street
True, this legend just walked in the side of the road and then left at his earliest convenience, no fucks given
Why the Hell would you do that in a place as strict ⚖️ as Singapore 🇸🇬 🤦♂️
@@venomau5speedz not as strict as u think, unless u done some stupid stuff
One more thing to mention about that Silverstone 2022 invasion; Zhou's condition was still unconfirmed at that point. For all we knew, Zhou could have suffered serious injuries and that track invasion would have been delaying crucial treatment. Compromising emergency services' ability to respond goes beyond trespass & public nuisance and goes straight into public endangerment.
Naw, Zhou was at Turn 1, the idiots were much further around.
It was the first lap. The medical car is always behind all the cars on that one.
Yes, they were stupid. But the F1 crews and track volunteers at Silverstone aren't.
So basically a bunch of idiots trying to kill a quite fast chinese man and failing... Like a Jackie Chan movie.
@@kibe2134 I mean, they would have probably killed Max or Charles or someone else before Zhou even got there, had the T1 accident not happened.
Ngl, if a Car hit one of them it would be kinda deserved. I mean, who sits on a racetrack? They are idiots and if a Car would've hit them it's a sign for others not to be the reason we lose faith in humanity. Aslong as the drivers are ok🤷♂️
Thank goodness you didn't make a 'Lando must leave McLaren' video like everyone else. Great content!
Hockenheim 2000 and Silverstone 2003, some of Barrichello's most iconic wins...
Silverstone 2003 was so epic. Rubens overtaking that day was on a whole other level.
"i wanna drive the car." fucking legend
Specially in a country like China 🇨🇳…….. yikes 😬
@@venomau5speedz bro really believed he could and im all for it
Another example of track invaders was that guy who drove his mates VW Polo onto the track (illegally) during a Fun Cup race at Brands Hatch.
He was a top tier Manus. On track, off track and in court.
Any link to news how big Manus he is?
I believe it was the dudes girlfriends car and she basically pleading the manus not to do it.
You should all see what used to happen at Le Mans. The crowd used to swamp the fence before the race even finished, when the cars came to cross the line they'd have to do it through a sea of humans.
It does stagger me what some people will do when they can't take 'No' for an answer. Then again, those people have probably never been told 'No' to their face for a very long time.
I recall the 2022 Silverstone, my group was interrogated by the police due to someone talking to us who they thought was suspicious, and after a heated argument with Silverstone staff over our tickets the police ended up moving the staff along and apologising profusely for the mistake
Turns out the rich snobs who run Silverstone has never heard of a travel agency, you see you give them money they sort your trip out for you, so the tickets were in the name of the travel agencies rep for all 50+ people that booked on with them, and the Silverstone manager just couldn't grasp this concept :D, then about 30 minutes later that track invasion happened :D
Can't help myself thinking the same group that invaded Silverstone last year was in fact the group that also poured oil on a painting and did some peculiar stuffs in a supermarket.
Yep. They've blocked motorways, railway lines and even tied themselves to Premier League goalposts.
aren't they the same group who vandalized the bmw art car too?
@@scsutton1Yeah then since broke onto a Cricket Pitch during the Ashes, the Rugby, Snooker and Wimbledon fully expecting them to do the Prem again and maybe Darts
It's at minimum ironical that the two races where Barrichello just drove like Senna had both track invaders...
I'm glad none of the track invaders have been killed, but I hope they realize the reason for that is because they were lucky and the marshals acted quickly in getting them off the track.
The Lunatic on Silverstone 2003 also had another meeting with Brazilian athletes. Olympic games Athene 2004, Marathon. He attacked the first runner, Vanderlei Cordeiro de Lima, and made him lost the first position and finished third.
Stefan Greene is an alright dude.
People entered the track towards the end of this year's Australian Grand Prix whilst the cars were still behind the safety car on the last lap
And every one of them should have been made to watch that incident from Kyalami '77. Uncensored.
My favorite moment is actually from Indycar. Where at the Loiuisiana GP a car got stuck in the mud so a random guy from out of nowhere came out and pushed the car by himself in his dress pants/shirt and shoes to push the car back onto the track. Right in the middle of the race, just off of the track line. In the Mud.
Classic moment. "Who's this guy" said Bell. So fun.
Did he continue the race?
There has also been a bunch of times where photographers and marshalls has been on the track for no reason in the middle of a race. I think there was one recently running across the pitlane entry in Monaco, it was completly missed on the broadcast.
At least Hockenheim 2000 gave us one of the most heartwarming and popular winners… ever
Sad it wasn't about F2 invaders, cause you could have talked in length about one Mahaveer Ragunath- oh, wait.
The dumbest thing about those just stop oil idiots was that they went on twitter afterwards saying about how they "disrupted the event".......an event that had already been stopped! The what ifs of that day are terrifying though! I have to say well done to the people in charge of the TV pictures that day too. Not one second of screen time was given to those morons!
i love that the oil people can't have food with oil in it 💀
i honestly feel a bit sad when ever i reach the end of one of your videos
and the music choice in the end always flawless
Anyone remember when the school bus drove onto the Formula 4 race ?
Not f1 related but I remember back in 2007 during the nascar race at Watkins glen in the middle of a red flag. A fan walked onto the track over by where the cars were stopped and asked a driver for an autograph
Some honorable mentions is the 5 thousand different times a fan climbed the catch fence in the middle of a race and sat down and watched it from there.
Also the guy who stole the pace car at talladega in the 80s/90s
I remember that video. And on a thumbnail of one of the most legendary motorsport compilation on youtube.
5:12 thank you for putting the wilhelm scream in here 😂
I'm a simple man. I see a new Josh video, I click watch.
couldnt get harder or easier than that
I Know this isn't F1,but once in the group B era of rally, Team Peugeot found a finger stuck on the refrigerator of their car. Imagine how the guy explained the doctor how he had lost his finger...
Maybe he didn't have a chance to explain...dead
The chequered flag wavers of the 60s, 70s, and 80s all were a tad bit crazy too.
That would be Glen Dix: czcams.com/video/Aj66aLdebbk/video.html
Your right there. I remember seeing the cars at the start having to go round the flag starter as he was actually on the track.. I know it was a different time but still MADNESS.
I remember watching the 2003 British GP as an 11 year old in Tenerife (I’m from UK), and I was watching it on the RTL channel, aka the german coverage, as I couldn’t get an English commentary. When I saw that guy running down the Hangar Straight, I genuinely thought at first it was some sort of mid race joke advert that I didn’t understand 😅
That same guy also pushed over the leader of the men’s marathon at the 2004 summer Olympics in Athens. The leader at the time eventually finished third
Jimmy Jump is also infamous for interrupting the Spanish song entry at Eurovision 2010 Finals
The underlying feeling at Silverstone in 2022 where I was sat was to just restart the race. Any issues would soon sort themselves out.
never forget when Lewis shouted out those just stop oil nobs
the banality of evil
I rmb watching the 03 track invader. What a great season. 03 & 12 were the last truly competitive seasons with more than 2 teams in the running
I mean 2023 seems to shape up to be a close season... If you're aiming for 2nd in the constructors that is.
At the end, I was sure you were gonna say "Do as everyone else does in F1. Create a Twitter account to shout at people on the internet"
Mercedes, upon seeing the auto worker they let go for medical reasons walking on a live F1 track:
“Zis is vhy, Hans. Zis is vhy.”
5:42 Maybe England Rugby should have put him in England’s Saturday starting team…
The hilarious thing with the just stop oil protestors, nobody noticed what they had done until hours later because no cameras were watching!!
"Do you know what happens to a human body when its hit at full racing speed by an f1 car? It turns into mist" - Rocketpoweredmohawk
I just saw this video, and I love how it was posted not long before the Australian Grand Prix where at the end of the race EVERYONE thought it was a great idea to jump the fences and be on track while racing was technically still "active" haha
While it may have happened in NASCAR, in 2007 at Watkins Glen, the race was red flagged, and the cars were stopped on the short chute, a fan hopped the fence with a pen and hat in an attempt to get an autograph from a Driver, Matt Kenseth
Why do I have the sudden urge to do a track invasion? Looks fun as hell.
I remember there was a random guy on the pit lane in Baku last year.
😂😂”every now and then driving ability” haha 😆
That was James Allen commentating on Horan running down the hanger street for ITV
The first dude was just hilarious 😂 Great Video mate.
The first dude at least had a legitimate reason to protest. I didn't realise that he actually got compensation from Merc after the event.
I remember about the crash in Hockenheim. Usually there were two days a week when you could inline skate on the Hockenheimring. So tuesdays, two days after the race I would go up to the crash site and found a piece of carbon fiber still lying around, the size of a coin. To this day I have this piece glued in my diary. But I thought it was David Couldheart who crashed
5:03! That is the best thing I've ever heard from you! Oh, thank you for giving me a wonderful laugh!
Thank you for this video you really gave me an inspiration on doing it myself thank you ❤❤
And so it came to pass that Steve Green was known as the Priest Catcher for evermore
There was a case in the UK when someone drove onto a circuit in their road car during a 5 hour Fun Cup endurance race at Brands Hatch
02:39 Is there actual footage of this incident from the 2000 french grand prix. Alot of people reference this that it was actually shown on TV, but I'm too lazy to watch a whole boring race again. Can someone tell me around what lap is it so I can fast forward to it?
I doubt it. I don't remember seeing it during the race, really.
1:31 I think it's pretty accepted (including by the commentators at the time) that it was at least 50:50 in that Schu-Fisi crash as Michael moved across the track and braked immediately, giving Fisi no time to react.
There was a track invasion at the MotoGP race at Jerez in 1996, the crowd ran onto the track on the last lap while the leaders were still battling for the win!
great vid again joshy boy
1:51 that sound is bringing on so much nostalgia :,)
NOT having that Fisi slander!!
Seems like I'll be coming back to this video every weekend...
When I see a new Joshua Revell video, I press/click play!
Nice duration Josh :D
5:55, the David Purley Roger Williamson incident is surely the saddest in f1.
I had completely forgot about all but 2 of these
Funny that all the ones you mentioned that took place during a race were won by Ferrari.
10/10 again love the vids
I like your style of editing and narratorion.
As a Brazilian one of my favorite stories of idiots invading the track happened at the 1988 Brazilian GP, at the time there was a guy called beijoqueiro (kisser) who, in the 80's started invading all kinds of concerts and events kissing celebrities, he even kissed frank sinatra once haha, some say he got punched and went mental but he says he is sane. That day was no different, the kisser wanted to kiss Senna but the fact is that in that exact Brazilian GP Senna had a problem with the car and had to start the race from the pits so when the kisser invaded the track he actually kissed Prost instead of Senna. Sorry for the mistakes, not my first language :)
0:58 The practice may be from cycling and rallying, where the crowd could still get up close to the competitors.
I totally remember Neil Horan running on to the track at Silverstone. I almost choked on my chips. What a nut.
Invading the track for protest is the most french thing of all time
The guy who invaded Silverstone 2003 later tackled the would be winner of the 2004 Athens Olympics marathon… and then appear on Britian’s Got Talent in 2009 doing a jig, making it to the second round…
Finally a full video on Verstappen
Woah woah woah! Fisi was not to blame for the first corner of Hockenheim 2000. Schumacher moved across so much he left Fisi nowhere to go. Onboard camera from the Benetton and Brundles commentary all placed the blame on Michael there.
Brundle would blame Michael for the clouds in the sky if he could...
2000 German Grand Prix is one of the greatest races of all time.
Judging by the video title, I expect this to be a Ferrari post 2007 documentary, primarily featuring Carlost Sainz and Mattia Binotto.
CAR LOST SAINZ 💀
It is weird how I’ve been to two events (both the British GP) where you had people out of their minds disturbing the race
my favorite has to be the singapore one just casually strolling on track like nothing
I am a member of Silverstone Marshals Team and this was very much a worst fear come true for all of us that day. I was glad no one was hurt at the end but my god what a load of idiots
This channel is fkn excellent
With RBR boring the hell outta F1 right now.... thank you for your educational, interesting and funny videos! Great work!
Mercedes did that from 2014 to 2016, 2019 and 2020 as well and you havent complained about it.
More of these kind of videos!
Lets just hope no one invades a race track with a lightning whip disguise as a marshall
7:18 : That dude thought his ticket came with a ride aboard a F1 car. X)
What a coincidence. I just discovered this guy after watching the 2003 FIA review documentary the other day. I can't believe I never saw the clip before, but I only started watching F1 a few years ago 🤣💀
Anyone who track invades should be shown the Tom Pryce video and given the report of the events that unfolded.
I'm sure someone can do the maths to figure out the forces involved of being hit by an F1 car at speed.
Great vid
Good original content mate
I actually saw Neil Horan in person, doing his dancing jiggy preachy thing near the pubs on the London Road in Twickenham, on the day of the 2015 Rugby World Cup semi-final between South Africa and New Zealand.
did you punch him?
