Thank you Ash and Tommy for this great insight into the camera work at F1. I'm totally pumped for more F1 stuff but also know your other vids have also been great!
thank you so much! i really appreciate it
This HAS to be one of the most underrated channels on CZcams. We all know it's impossible to "create" a viral video on purpose, but if someone deserves it, it's for sure you! Keep up the amazing job man, this F1 content is unlike anyone has done in a while, amazing stuff
You mean this HASS to be great??? haha
And the amount of research Tommy puts in! So good!!! 👏👏
%100, this is such a great Channel.
@@velociraptor5962 *HAAS 🙃
Loved the last F1 video; this is also super awesome! Keep up the great work!
thank you for watching!
Absolutely delicious 😋

Can you imagine being on a 40m crane on a rainy day and hearing a thunder? Come on, I'm getting out of there immediately.
Great interview, great questions and Ashley seems like a very nice guy.
What a great guest to have on & you interviewed him brilliantly, asking engaging questions which flowed smoothly.
P.s. I'm sure Alonso would find this interview useful after his dodgy camera work at Brazil in 2016.

Thanks Ash for being our "eyes" on the racetrack. It's awesome know a little bit more about the people on site that makes things happen. Tommy top level interview and edit.Great work. Thanks!

loved hearing this interview. I've cam oped for Formula E, GT4, GT3, SCCA, and Indy lights, but F1 is the dream gig. it's amazing to hear how many things are similar, but at that same time, so next level!
For example the next topics: how Netflix films f1 or how car cameras work.
Thanks to Tommy and Ash, interesting interview
I'm new to F1 and it's very interesting learning about what goes into producing a race. Thank you both for sharing your knowledge :)

You. Should definitely do more F1 behind the scenes videos, I am a big F1 fan but your behind the scenes videos are THE BEST. and you fill a gap not shown anywhere else. MORE PLEASE.
This video was actually really well done as well as informative. Your vids going viral aren't a coincidence. Nicely done!
That's the reason I love F1 everything should be perfect! So many talented people around! Thanks for all those questions!!
Yes more F1 content and how is shot. But also you could sidetrack into Lemans, or nascar or Indy. Pointing out the differences between them. Or why some motorsports are not broadcast live.
I bet you made this guys day, giving him the recognition he deserved
More F1 contents please. Specially f1 workers interview. The pit crew, mechanics, the moving crew. Thats a lot more.
The passion all over this guys face is the best thing about this whole interview. This guy is in love with his career. So great to see. Great questions too.
So well targeted questions, great work. One of the best insights I've seen about the unsung heroes working behind the scenes of Formula one. Thank you!
This was awesome! I've been asking F1 to do a documentary on the tech side to shooting a race for a long time. Thanks Tommy.
TOMMY! more F1 content please!
again, you are a remarkable editor, director, writer, MUSICIAN "All music was created by myself and Dia Klassen." keep it up i am trying hard to learn to be half as talented as you
thank you so so much!
Great interview and an eye opener in to this whole F1 industry. Insight in to the control room?!! Fascinating and love the conversation & style. Keep it up!!
This was fantastic. I love traveling but the fact that they can't really explore when they go is almost a deal breaker. Would love to see more f1 content bro
big appreciation to this channel. With how fast F1 has been growing their audience in the past years, i've seen many people trying to jump in with the popularity creating content half-researched information. This video and the one before are definitely not half-researched. Subscribed
Your pice on how f1 is broadcast was one of the most informative I’ve seen on the sport all year! I appreciate your hard work it took for you to bring it to us.
This was a great follow up. Last weekend I was thinking about how slowly the camera operators make the cars look because of their skills at following the cars. This is a very timely informative piece for me!
dude this is SO high quality you should be getting WAY more subs / views!!! Keep going with the F1 content! I love it!
Well. As an F1 Fan I really enjoy this “backstage” content. Great interview and i hope you keep this line and bring more content about what goes on in F1 besides the drivers and team principal. Because that’s all we see.
Next you could bring staff from other departments and even staff from the teams. Like a Mechanic. We don’t really know what it is like being the jack man, or the gun man, marshals, Etc.
But great content keep it up.
This guy is a piece of sheer nonchalance. Keep it up,good recording, smooth quiet video. Keep rising💙💛
Great work. Been a long time F1 fan and hearing about this makes me appreciate the camera work even more
This guy does goated content no cap
is this man is made of steel or what? Unbelieveable! Thank you so much for this interview, you just earned a follower!
12:39. Hey there Martin Brundle! Great Video Tommy. Thank you Ashley Farazmand!
Ohh god that was so nice ...people really don't know how all the video and audio gets in the tv but these guys are hardworkers and real deal if they are not shooting there is no racing thank you very much
Really interesting and insightful! He clearly loves his job and amazing he's never missed a race since he started! More f1 videos please!!!
Facinating as a life long F1 fan growing up in Montreal and going to all the races as a kid. To now coming from a live concert production background and now in film and TV. Wonderful interview, keep the F1 content coming please!
I have been very impressed with F1 camera operators. The entire production is amazing.
Eu Rouge is an iconic corner, maybe the most iconic corner in F1.
Nice one Ash! Thanks to Tommy too for making videos that I can show my family to explain what we do.
Just discovered your channel. Hope you climb high here my man. This type of content is what YT is for; such a relief to find newer content creators still growing with actual educational/enlightening content, rather than 35 year old men exploiting the attention span of little children by making noises and acting absolutely embarrassing. Keep true to what you do and best to your success :)
Great lighting, great audio, great video, great graphics, great articulation of topics, this one is an easy sub for me! keep crushing it man!
This is pretty dope - thanks Ash for sharing some these insights. The logistics involved in this sport are insane - massive respect to all these crews
Dude the amount of respect you had and you asked the best quastions
Love love LOVE your videos. Especially the F1 ones 😅 thank you for giving us this unique insight. Please keep them coming! You are doing a great job!
Nice interview Tommy! Well thought out questions and edits. Good luck on the channel! 👍👍
Awesome. Thanks Ashley. Safe travels.
His smile while he talks about standing in "Au rouge". Good stuff !
Such an incredible video Tommy! glad you posted again with this amazing interview and quality. Keep it up!
This video makes me think of one thing I always wondered was how a Golf Camera operator always tracks and finds the ball, it's insane . . wish someone could explain that.
thanks ash n tommy for this in depth interview. hoping to see more such stuff. even better that you some day get to go into a race weekend to have an exclusive :)
Truly an awesome video overall, felt like watching a Drive to Survive behind the scenes episode. Amazing!
I love these a lot! F1 related content like this is why I'm here. It's super interesting! Thanks man :)

Fantastic! Great stuff, Tommy!
LOVED IT!! Thank you very much for sharing!!!!
The first one about how f1 is filmed got me to sub now this is pure bonus, keep pushing till they let you film when they build the broadcast centre, that'd be super cool
really enjoyed this one bro
Again well done! Thank you very much! Great interview!
Liked, awesome episode! already subscribed. and would love to see the workflow that leads to the actual shot selections that make it to air.
Your f1 videos are so goooood! I'll definitely be subscribing this time.
I watched your first video and thought that it was quite well put together for a smaller youtuber but never really thought anything of it. But this follow up really shows that you have the thing for interviewing and connecting with people. I dont know if you edit your own videos but they are very well done and the b roll is thoughtfully laid out. I wish you luck my dude and you earnd your sub, from someone who crates content behind the scenes for other youtube channels i wish there was more people like you who understand story telling and are as effective in conveying it to the viewers. Kudos to you Sir!
Hey Tommy, Thanks for the videos on F1, really informative
Thanks for the video Tommy. Very interesting and shows a really good work on your side, getting Ash, etc etc. Good luck!
Great interview Tommy. We don’t see enough of behind the scenes of any event. Maybe this will inspire someone to a career in sports broadcasting and change someone’s life.
Really enjoyed that. Very informative, thank you!
Very cool insight into the unsung hero’s of F1. Keep it up! Would love more F1 content.
That was awesome, thanks for your time Ash!

Tommy please more more more!!! More F1 content man. We'll keep it going viral 👌👌👍 great work.
Great video! Extremely interesting. As someone who works in professional racing it’s always interesting to see how the folks around the teams get stuff done. Keep up the great content.
Whoever place the cameras around the track is genius. The placement when i watch the gp’s are fucking great.
this was awesome !!! behind the scenes stories is what 2023 need !!! Thanks to Ash for giving you some time and giving us some interesting things to think about
Yet another excellent piece of work. Looking forward to the next one. Perhaps getting the filming and support kit from home base to the track and ready for filming. Whatever you do I am sure it will be excellent. Thanks again.
Lovin’ your F1 ideas; lookin’ forward to more. Thanks!
Amazing, the questions are well chosen !!!
Great follow up to the first video, nice job with the interview!
