    What I commend this guy about, is the fact that he clearly isnt trying throughout all these years to make a career out of youtube or earn income. He is just sharing just a fraction of his unique experiences with the rest of the world. He is not aiming to have subscribers or views. He just uploads videos that you can rarely find anywhere. It amazes me how petrol heads havent (apparently) discovered this gem of a channel, that offers an incredible insight on some extremely rare machines out there. I mean how many own a Formula 1 car and offer you POV rides with it?
    As a fellow petrol head I want to thank you for doing this. This type of sharing is genuine and authentic. Something rare these days.

      You don't think I should be doing some clickbait title, come and look at me when I drive the amazing yada yada and do a 5minselfie shoot at the beginning?;)
      You tube happens to be an easy place to store some videos I like to share with friends at times. If others like them as well great.
      Glad you enjoy it and thanks for the comment

    The only things you need to try - is awd rally cars.
    Rally cars are so aggressive, and yet - agile.
    I tried once WRC '03 Subaru Impreza STI WRC - and this thing was wild!

    Thanks for sharing this awesome POV with us! Does the car sound pleasant to listen to in real life, or more on the hurting the ears side? Also, do you know if the engine is running at full 19000 RPM or detuned a little? Nice smooth drive btw

    Hey Alex, does anyone have a 1996 ferrari thorugh the F1 Clienti programme, and if so, do you have any plans to approach the person for a drive in that car? Would love to see it with your usual onboard footage, and experience shared in the comment section.

  • @MexicanBagpiper96

    Did either Räikkönen or Massa drive this? Or was it a separate chassis for demonstration runs? Just curious if the team gave that information.

    Hey im curious, how is the handling of the f1 car compared to other track cars you drove? (Fxxk evo, 488 gt modificata, 720gt3x, etc)

    • @AlexanderWest
      @AlexanderWest  Před rokem +6

      you cant compare a single seater with big heavy GT cars. The F1 is 605kgs with driver. a 488 is closer to 1400kgs, and who knows what an Fxxk weighs. so significantly less weight, a lot more downforce etc etc

    Out of interest, do you know how far off the ultimate pace you were laptime wise?

    • @AlexanderWest
      @AlexanderWest  Před rokem +5

      hard to say, we are running on GP2 tyres, engine is somewhat detuned etc. but in the same car 5-7s a lap at silverstone.
      Abbey woudl be flat if not almost flat with a pro, braking would be later, copse would be in 6th rather than 5th, maggots and becket could be done quicker as could stowe. But then again, a pro doesnt own the car or maybe care that it is a piece of racing history... ;)
