The mandatory tyre strategies also forced the drivers to basically do non-stop qualifying laps, and that made the situation even worse.
True this gp must not be drive in the summer but in the winter
lando also confirmed multiple drivers passed out in the medical tent. this should’ve never happened, drivers safety and health should be the fias number one concern.
nk jne passed out that is a lie.
@@ifldiscovery8500 it isn’t a lie. watch landos interview he confirmed it.
@@ifldiscovery8500wtf does that mean? Are you responding to someone?
@@ifldiscovery8500 because I’m pretty sure multiple people have said they either passed out or were super close to passing out
Fia be like
Qatar = Sheikh= money= rich
Yeah but you what else = money? Having a race in the middle east during a season when people are actually going to want to watch it.
and spa’s spot on the calendar is threatened because it isn’t safe enough. It’s just stupid
dude, it's racing all around the world
yall have some serious unhealthy love with politics
it's not for some sheikh oil money
@@EthernetCat6This is such a naïve thing to say.
@@EthernetCat6that is huge naivety here
Why is no one talking about Esteban Ocon throwing up in his helmet??? *How the actual fuck did he survive the rest of that race???*
I think F1 didn't learn anything from FIFA world cup
They did. Qatar=money
The world cup was good tho so whats ur point?
Bro that was the greatest football tournament what are you waffling about😂?
@@TheAllRounderMemespeople died for the brazil world cup but qatar happen to be in the middle east so its ok to target them.
@@TheAllRounderMemes it was one of the best world cups ever organised. Did you even go to the world cup, couch potato.
They are forgetting when Bahrain was during the day. That was insane.
i know abt that, but Bahrain dosen't really have a 4 hi-speed corner sequence in quick sucession.
Bahrain was in winter. It was chilly for the middle east.
Heat exhaustion is a real problem
When you see Albon, used to the heat in Thailand, had heat exhaustion after this race... that tells you something is wrong with the race.
But it’s still yet close to the goddamn equator and won’t change Jack s**t
qatar is around 2000km away from the equator, its on the same latitude as miami
Are u blind
The cooldown room also became an actual cool down room
I don't take seriously anyone who says F1 or other race drivers have it easy. Based on yesterday's race, it's good that it's being moved to December.
"Threw up in his helmet". Yeah think about that one for a minute.
Meanwhile Lewis didn't even break a sweat. Built different.
Cuz he dnf 💀
@@therealf.b.i9468built different
@@therealf.b.i9468😅
Lolz dude you violated lewis 😂
@@therealf.b.i9468explaining the punchline ruins the joke dog
If you take account the temperature inside the car and the constant G-force on corners that changes the breathing pattern of the drivers... The conditions are similar to hyperventilating inside a 70 degree sauna
Bahrain 2005
Am I a joke to you?
No matter where they finish, they deserve all our respect.
dont forget about the 40°C bahrein gp during the day
Bahrain 20.5 was the real hell ngl
My question is what was the temperature inside the cockpit? Only because you have NASCAR drivers Racing for 2 or 3 hours in a 130-140°F (57-61°C) cockpit. I know Jenson Button ran the COTA NASCAR race and he said he's never been in a car that hot and actually stopped I think for around 2-3 minutes for ice and water and he never even threw in the towel! Even though he was suffering from heat exhaustion. To be fair I think it's been like three or four years since he's raced. That was his first race back is pretty tough.
Bruh F1 doesn't have a cockpit. (They could do cooled bodysuits and helmets though)
Imagine racing qatar during the day at peak summer, this guys raced evening which was very humid
IndyCar and NASCAR have cool suits and cool balaclavas. Doesn't F1 have the same thing?
No, beacause you have to save as much weight as posibile
I imagine they would add weight and when just a tiny bit of weight can cause a lap time 0.354 slower than your rival you want your car to be the lightest possible
@@Person4148better adding it on everyone would make the situation better for everyone! Without the safety of the driver there is no need for more speed
@@_sahildahat_I agree. If EVERYONE carries the same weight of cooling clothing etc then no-one has an advantage. Happy days!😊😊
@@Anonimuser8642 Simply make them spec parts and mandatory for everyone, problem solved.
Massive hypocrisy by F1, pretending the conditions were fine for drivers, when they delay (or even cancel) races when there is rain. Ask the drivers which is worse.
Wet weather causes physical and obvious hazards/risks.
Dry weather/extreme heat usually only has a UV/fire warning….
Thats like 91.5f. Normal day where i live.😅
That temperature is normal to me
2005 Bahrain GP: am i a joke to you?
Vietnam should be consider :))
We remember the Hanoï track
@@tymf101it was extremely fun on the F1 game, I'd love it actually raced on
@@core_russell3869sadly the fia doesn't care about anything else than money
@@core_russell3869 tins for that i said that
they should just drop qatar altogether
theres multiple reasons to not race in qatar. the heat is one of them, but the least as it is possible to make it a night or winter race.
That's only ~90°F...
Bro, you know what happened in Bahrain 2005 GP hottest Formula One race ever
Drop it for Nurburgring
C'mon, all they need is a Marlboro and they'll be fine and up to drive another 30 laps
All that monay and tech but nobody can add in an AC 🤦♂️
Too much weight
Doesn't IndyCar have cooled helmets or something? Considering global warming isn't going to stop anytime soon the FIA should really start considering mandatory cooled suits/ helmets in open wheelers and mandatory air conditioning in tin tops. This is going to happen more often in the future, and not just in a desert country like Qatar. It's entirely possible that someday soon there's going to be a European GP in June, July or August where there'll be ambient temperatures of almost 40 degrees celsius.
Because that will help the global warming issue 🙄 let's just stop racing in summer in some of the hottest, driest locations on earth. Maybe we can goto more tracks where the populace actually like racing and not just where the autocratic leader has cash.
@@jackmorris6776 As if a few thousand cooled racing suits/ cars are going to have a significant climate impact besides the tens or even hundreds of millions airconditioned vehicles already out there. Also, have you missed how European summers were for like, the past two decades? As I mentioned, it's entirely possible that next year a European GP held in summer will feature similar conditions as last weekends' Qatar GP.
It'll be far more beneficial for reducing greenhouse gas emissions if the F1 season is brought back to around 15 GPs per season like it used to be so the whole circus will have to be transported to a different track 8-10 times less every year. Not to mention all the fans that won't take their car or a flight to the venue. Lastly, this'll also ensure that F1 teams will have a somewhat normalized work schedule again.
That would be an interesting idea but IndyCar has those cause the cars have windshields that prevent any air from cooling the driver even in good climate conditions
@@WeerknuffelbeerI see your point but maybe it's just stupid as hell to have high level sporting events in the middle of the desert in the first place. Fuck all that oil money. It's just horrible for the climate anyways to see what they do in those states so maybe not support it by taking their money and helping them make themselves look like anything but the psycho autocrats they are. Also the climate will never be as bad in Europe as it is in the desert because Europe has humidity. Even if it hits 40° in central Europe it's still not as crazy as 45° in the desert. Just boycott those states. They exist because of hyper capitalism and literal modern day slave labor. Who do you think built those circuits and the infrastructure in the desert heat. It's bad for the drivers but think about the hundreds of workers who are basically held hostage there and forced to work and how many probably died building that track. Let those psycho autocrats stew in their own desert heat and not cater to them because their so rich. Integrity over greed. Sporting associations should learn from the FIFA debacle. Not repeat it
33 degree with no electric fan and just plain hot air is like an everyday temperature in my country. Then I remember these are the drivers who grew up and trained in cold countries.
33 on noon. Not at night!!! ….. F1 needs revenue to survive and sheikhs can afford it . What’s your problem? The date was not well thought out, the weather now in Qatar is better than beginning of October. And the November slot in 2021 was excellent.
The ambience temperature doesn't match the temperature inside the cockpit of the car. It goes waay higher than that during the races. In colder climates than bahrain sometimes it hits 50 degrees. Imagine how bad it must have been with 33 degrees. Now imagine driving at high speeds for hours in that conditions. It's inhumane
They could also not have the race in another desert country, they already have Saudi Arabia, but money is always more important than people even if they really don't need it
33 C with high humidly literally nothing
Why do I feel that Malaysian GP was way hotter?
I mean you sign up to do that
Yall going to race….in the desert….the hot..ass…desert.
Habibi we race as money GP
F1 needs revenue to survive and sheikhs can afford it . What’s your problem? The date was not well thought out, the weather now in Qatar is better than beginning of October. And the November slot in 2021 was excellent.
Fernando Alonso had it worser at the 2005 Bahrain Grand Prix and he still won the race anyway!
😢😢😢😢
They should never race there again
ocon: i feel weak (while on track)
FIA: ten second penalty for ocon
33°C is hot?💀
probably is strapped right in front of a 1000 horsepower ICE under several layers of fire retardant clothing experiencing several g forces of load on your body every few seconds yup
Wearing 3 fireproof layers sitting in front of a 1000hp engine for 2 hours in 90+% humidity
Yes, that's quite hot
33? ... 😂😂😂 ... sorry, I'm from Mumbai so that sounds like a high temp in winter
You clearly have no understanding of the intensity of F1 and the conditions the drivers are exposed to in the cockpit
Ignorant non f1 fan
I already sweat after a long race in a simulator in my room so i couldn't imagine doing 60 or so laps pulling 1-2-3GS and almost 2000kg of brake balance every lap in 33 degrees.
(Some things may be inacurate don't hate
THX)
That just the air temps inside the car it is way warmer sitting in an engine. Also pushing yourself to the limit and 3 layers of clothing… 33 degrees at the beach yeah it is pleasant not in a race car.
Even the race suit and under clothing has to be thicker for the flame repellent, so it's like sitting on a furnace clothed in a blanket and fighting the turns. Sure, 33 might not be bad if you're just sitting in the stands
I'm with Martin Brundle!
they are pro racers on the highest level and making millions, so i would say let them work for it, if it was me i would ban auto shift and power steer to, and thruw out the hole track only gras and gravel as natural boundries, plus give them tires so they can and have to push to the limith through out the hole race.
NASCAR has 130+ temps in their cars, it’s not hard to find a race where they aren’t over 100 degrees in the car
I used stuff like this to explain to people that don’t understand racing or formula one at all, or the kind of intrigued. Tell him that these people are athletes the amount of forces they experience in a corner is only comparable to a jetfighter, especially the impacts like the ones who seen the last few races, and few seasons. Watching this I was like oh my gosh, I sent it to my friend who has no interest in it and she’s like oh wow and she started kind of realize. Hey, these guys are just as a guy that plays on a football field different type of athleticism, but it is insane how strong these guys are even guys in NASCAR with the cars is 140° inside their car and they’re wearing it fireproof, onesie, and a helmet and gloves.I hope everyone recovers good and I can’t wait for the circuit of the Americas GP
Yes it can be too hot to drive. But teams need to better manage cockpit temperatures, and the FIA needs to regulate the location of electronics in and around the cockpit. Drivers from many team shave complained about ‘hot seats’ once the cars went hybrid, this is a great opportunity for the teams and FIA to fix it for the next Gen cars in 2025.
Mate…the cars are heavy enough as it is. Changing the regs for one race in a corrupt pos country like Qatar isn’t the answer 😂
@@Hello_there_obi Qatar is not the only place the drivers have complained about the environmental heat or the car making the seat hot.
Corruption is a completely different issue to climate, as are driver welfare and car weights.
Conflating the issues will not solve any of the issues you raise.
@@camf7522 singapore is within limits. Qatar is the only one. I'm saying that his proposal isn't a good one, especially if it's over racing in one country that doesn't have much motorsport history and is riddled with human rights abuses.
Why is max wearing a c*m jacket?!
It's an ice jacket
They get paid to do that. A little heat won’t hurt.
Bro please delete this comment before you get your balls dragged across broken glass
They´re not getting paid to get sick and injured.
I guess Lando and Leclerc never raced and will never race!🫴🧡
make it a winter race
