Keep doing these F1 tours. they are soo good.
Can't Express how much I love your videos, keep it up man! Cool to catch a video early.
Thanks a ton!
I agree with @Offn1ne
@@DownieLive Loved watching your vids since you were giving us the downlow on Vancouver!
I remember working at the British Grand Prix as a litter picker. But, the best bit was we were given access all areas and it literally was access all areas. I managed to get up close and take a picture of Alain Prost, Nigel Mansell, Derek Warwick, and Ayrton Senna. Walking up the pit lane on race day was the best thing ever! The smell and the noise, just amazing!
This video just reminded me of that experience and I can see why you had such a huge smile on your face as well.
I discovered your videos about a year or so ago because your first F1 experience came up on my feed. As an F1 fan, of course I watched. I have watched several hours of your videos since then because incidentally, I also love trains - but the fact that you love F1 so much takes it all. I love living vicariously through your videos. :) Thank you!
Great to hear!
When they had the Molson Indy Vancouver, I was fortunate to get a temp job working at it in the food services and was given an all access pass for the entire 3 or 4 days of it, including the Players party at the downtown Library and had full pit lane access as well, got to meet all the drivers and team owners from the likes of the late Greg Moore, Paul Tracy, Alex Zanardi, Michael and Mario Andretti to name a few. It was an awesome time, my main area I worked in at it was the area where all the team owners and staff were at especially for the victory celebrations.
I fricken miss the Molson Indy Vancouver 😢 I wish they brought it back.
Just spotted my partner at 2.27 - he works in the PC he would have been sorting the audio for the interview. Thank you for posting so I could check he was doing some work 🤣
Love these vids, keep it up!
Great Video Mike. It looks like you had a great time. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Fancy. I guessed after they liked last year's video you were doing Paddock Club 👏 The VIP one in Montreal looked great too. That felt more like you're in the garage with them. But having that Paddock boat transportation in Montreal would've been nice ;)
That is so totally coooool, Mike. I'd say you were having the time of your life. What an amazing event and especially your ride around the track. That severe turn you showed us was hair-raising. You do such great work, youngster. Thanks!!!!!!
gosh these are some of my absolute fav videos to watch! incredible coverage and what a treat for you to have picked an oyster with pearls in it!
What a blast!🎆
Dude this is incredible! Thanks for the peek into Paddock Club!!
Cheers, to *this* tradition! What an experience, Mike!! #seeyanextweek
LOVE YOUR F1 CONTENT CONTINUE GROWING AS PERSON AN D AS CHANNEL CONGRATS
I just have a big smile watching your videos I feel like I’d be friends with you and be there doing all this cool stuff. The best smiles are the genuine ones you don’t realize your doing until it’s over
It's cool because you got to see other things not included, like the guy that took you to the other place. Otherwise paddock club is literally packed with people pushing and shoving most of the time which I dealt with in Doha and the wristbands for the track tour were finished in a couple of hours. Our shuttle got there later and so we missed out even though it was included on the price. Also people would sit at random tables and sections they are not even allowed in and no one would do anything about it. It's cool if you know people but not otherwise.
Damn man. I remember subscribing when you had less than 1000 subs. Just stumbled upon your page. I live in Crescent Beach. Amazing how far you have come. Keep it up. you really have one of the best channels.
I watched your previous video and it was the inspiration to go to this year's bahrain grand prix. Although i had grandstand seating for the weekend, i had a package that allowed us up to the oasis deck and the pitlane walk and track tour. It was an amazing weekend and was good to see you had an amazing experience too!!!
Oh that’s awesome! I hope you enjoyed it!
@@DownieLive it was amazing, especially seeing Lewis Hamilton's '08 McLaren fly around the track, made the weekend that more special
@Legoracer97 oh big time! That was so cool!
THE Flyover!!! Pretty darn sweet Downie!!! Loved it! 🌱🌻😉
Loving the F1 videos! You need to do another one with Sinan and Vincent!! Keep up the good work, loving all the content…and can’t wait to see if you make down to Australia for a a race or to japan or even singapore!
good video man , look forward to more like this
Downie....I am so proud of you. Your hard work and sheer, bloody-minded wholesomeness is responsible for all this.
Great Vid mate I used to travel for working at these F1 events last year so I know most of the staff in the paddock club!
That Oasis area is cool AF! That should be the spot. Would definitely go there
Love your videos Mike! Especially the F1 videos! How did you get the tickets? It’s a dream of mine to do exactly what you did here!! ❤
Brilliant video & insight Mikie :)
dude i really like your F1 experience videos
How did you go from travelling by trains to Dakar & F1?!? Well done!!!!
I remember the videos of you & your dad travelling across Canada via train 🥰 🇨🇦
This dropped at 3 A.M. California time, but at least I get to see it late. Pearls used to be the only thing Bahrain was known for, a sleepy little island in the Persian Gulf. My, how things have changed!
Nice tour of the Paddock Club. Excellent. Have not been to that one yet.
Had the opportunity to meet you at the Bahrain GP and you guys couldn't have been nicer. I'm the islanders fan from Scotland who still isn't over Tavares leaving 😂 Glad you enjoyed the paddock experience we hope to do it next year maybe see you there 👍
Simon! I remember, we met outside the drivers entrance to the paddock! Thanks again for saying hi!
I hope you had a good time too!
You make really entertaining videos man keep the good work up!
Exicited
I’ve always wanted to go to a F1 event but never have love the vids man keep it up!!
I once managed to blag a free Paddock Club pass for the Friday practice day at Silverstone. Not quite that level, but still one of the most amazing days of my life and I still remember the food 20 years later.
Love how you’re giving us this opportunity to see the fun behind formula one racing. I used to watch with my brother about 37 years ago.
I remember last year I was in the stands at silverstone they did a track tour for paddock when all the stands were full and the booing was crazy 🤣
Wow what an amazing experience! I’d love to one day get to do paddock club. I’ve been to the Miami and Austin GP and Bahrain seems so chill.
Only thing better than paddock club is buying a spot on a yacht by the chicane in monaco. best food, wine & champagne, spot to watch, & so many driver interviews on the yacht. was really cool to hear stories from Jeremy Clarkson
You’re living the life I always wanted and thats to be in F1 race close to everything!!
Thanks for the video
Super cool experience, great video!!
Absolutely amazing. Thanks Mike.
That was cool to watch, great video!
Feels like we're there. Thanks for the amazing content!
Thanks for coming along!
" WOW" Would absolutely love to experience an F1 race like that.
Hey, Michael, Looks like you are on a roll. Nice one and well done, S
That’s sick bro well done. Watched last years video and looks like you had as much fun at both years
Great stuff man
We really love your f1 videos, mate. I don't know if it is easy or hard for you , but please don't stop making these videos ❤❤
Your haircut rocks... great video
You rock!
What an experience and privilege, thanks for sharing!!!! 🏎️
I did Paddock Club in 2022 on the Friday and it was great.
So cool, hope to see you in montreal!
I love watching your videos! Always a great experience to see, I have no interest in F1 but I enjoy your joy for it.
I watched F1’s vlogs of yours. Now you’re in for paddock! Cool🎉
what a video mate!! keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
Yessss mate, the Kym collab is coming, I can feel it!
Major bucket list goals.
What a life my dude. Glad to see how happy you were.
You have too come to Switzerland and travel with the red arrow train!
Looks like a ton of fun bro!
great video! any idea what the jersey he’s wearing is? i like it
Were did you get his danny ric blue Jersey 8:30 & your Aston green Jersey 0:26 can you tell me. Links if you can.
Spitting on the other oysters at 8:19 😂
Wish you would have brought the people you met from last year to the behind the scenes
Such a cool experience to see all the different access areas!
So interesting!
So cool! Youre Channel is really unique in the F1-Scene
Thanks. I appreciate that!
Mike Downie + F1 content = the best
sir i need you to go and vlog every race this season i think 🤣
Awesome vid brother! My wife and I are huge F1 fans. Love when you do F1 content! Again thanks for the quote I got off you for my wife’s Valentine Day card “I don’t know where I’m going next, but I want you there with me” Lol, remember me! Keep up the great vids. Can’t wait for the next one!!
Very cool paddock Mike
with your paddock club passes you can go into the F2 and F3 paddock a far more intermate experience
One of the best behind the scenes vids I’ve ever seen
where did you get your shirt???? Love the Canadian Aston Stroll PRIDE LOL
I always enjoy paddock club videos.
Were the food and drinks included in Paddock Pass admission price?
You've come along way from taking the cheapest trip to a f1 race, and man it looks good on you. I'm jealous, but in the best way!!
Thanks so much, Chris!
Was really awesome seeing you have the time of your life!!!✌🐢
Huge F1 fan myself. Love your videos. 🙏
i was there, saw you filming
Our man Downie going big time!
Hey Downie frickin loved this vid. I’m curious as to how you get so many experiences and get invited and everything is paid for (not this vid) but like how they contacted you to go to races and have VIP experiences
The explanation as to how I got this paddock club experience is all explained in my lasted video. For others I buy tickets myself, or for my VIP experience with Alpine, I emailed and made a case that it would be worth it for them with the exposure from my channel. I hope that answers your question.
Thanks mate I really appreciate it
Im not going to pretend to have all of a sudden become a fan of F1, but I respect that you are and that you also need funds to finance the videos that I do love.......Im looking forward to seeing your next more traditional Mike Downie video and, as always, will view every video for the different view you give. Cant say Im a fan of Bahrain, simply from the human rights perspective, but, unlike many Arabic nations, they at least seem to be trying to be seen to do what is right (by western standards anyway).......as with everywhere though, they have a way to go. And I mean everywhere. There isnt a nation on Earth that couldnt do better on that front, my own included.
You said what I was just thinking in a very respectful way. I’m starting to question why I’m now following a channel about F1 racing in the Middle East, neither of which I’m even curious about. I was a big fan of his older content, and if this is his true passion, I can’t fault him. But it’s gotten to the point where I just scroll past his videos without watching. There’s enough fans here pleased with the content so my measly view hardly matters, but I do miss the old content. I found him during the pandemic and it was fun while it lasted.
@@Gingersnap0 Mike is awesome and if you'd read through the comments all the way, you'd have noticed he responded to another comment with an explanation. I suggest you look for it if you genuinely enjoy his non F1 content and remember that he is watching a sport he enjoys, not touring and endorsing the nations that sport happens to have a race in. Mike Downie has some of the best travel blogs, and the best presenting style, Ive ever seen. And from what he has said, he has a more traditional video coming next.......Im going nowhere.
Nando looking into your soul @ 3:30
What do you use to keep track of all your travel-related info such as itineraries, documents, etc.? Do you use something like TripIt? Notion? Spreadsheet?
Awesome!!! makes want to do bahrain!!!
Met u in the paddock, What a guy!!
yeeee you back !! love it
Aspetto come sempre nuovi video😇🤗grande Downielive saluti dall'italia
I think it looked flawless without the wing. So unique. But there's other areas that look very original still.
Thank you for taking us with you, its the only chance I'd ever get,
This one is great but I loved the cheapest f1 race video more.That was more touching and releastic for me in a sense.Overall it’s amazing!
I just started getting into F1 last season. Seeing this side of it is amazing.
Keep doing this we want to see more 😢😢
Man... that looks like so much fun! 😊
Do you get to meet any of the drivers with the paddock club pass? Or do you have to be a guest a particular team?
Very cool, but try to go WRC events where you get most of this (except the food) for free, get even closer to the cars and drivers
You are a lucky man! I looked it up for Montreal, the paddock club tickets are $28k each!?
Guenther was there because he is a commentator for the German broadcaster RTL this F1 season.
