    He had some terrible luck that season and its a shame he was so overshadowed by Vettel. Helmut Marko needs to stop pressuring young drivers so much. Keep a guy around and give him a shot. I'm sure Bourdais could've done better than Buemi, Alguersuari, Ricciardo, or Vergne ever have if given a proper chance.

      To be fair to Bourdais, back in 2008 his standing position was quite bad, but it wasn't, compared to the car and to Buemi, in 2009 when he lost his seat. In qualifying Buemi was often faster than him, but not at an embarassing level, and if I recall well, championship standings were 3 points for Buemi and 2 for Bourdais.

    I did feel for Bourdais in 2008, having come from 4 consecutive Champ Car Titles to this must of been hard !! He lost points in Melbourne when the car broke near the end, this race in Spa and then the following race at Monza ! People remember Vettel taking pole and winning... But Bourdais qualified 4th for that race, only for the car to fail to start on the warm up lap and loosing more points ! Shame he didn't get another shot at F1 :(

    Bourdais was unlucky during his F1 stint, but the worst part was that he was a driver for scuderia toro rosso. The way Helmut marko shits and preys on rookies is just awful and disgusting to see. Puts a lot of unnecessary pressure on new guys. Kills the enjoyment. And chtistian horner is no different.
    Guys like bourdais, alguersuari, kvyat, gasly deserved better treatment. What sort of a man is a team advisor who emotionally and professionally intimidates rookie drivers??? Sainz was lucky, he exited the program at the right time and is now enjoying a good career.

    @poska69 Bourdais is an example of a driver whose fate might have been different had he sold out to Flavio Briatore (he refused a management contract with Flavio in 2002). Giorgio Pantano (who was a karting god and lost the 2002 International F3000 title to Bourdais by two points) is another who could have signed with Flavio around the same time, but he didn't do it, and he ended up getting one shot in a bad Jordan.

  • @christophertarhan
    @christophertarhan Před 7 lety +35

    The truth is there is an elitist attitude amongst the F1 paddock that doesn't really want to see drivers from American categories (Champcar/Indycar) do well. Bourdais drove very well in his first race and had the car break on him. In F1 there is so much that rides on the mechanical side of the car and the politics of being a number one or two driver. If you think every driver is given a fair shot you're kidding yourself.

    • @Npgp2
      @Npgp2 Před 6 lety +1

      There's a reason Bourdais had to go to America in the first place. Despite winning F3000 he hadn't impressed many people in F1 (there was a general lack of quality in that series near its end) and some of the drivers he beat like Pantano weren't exactly setting F1 on fire either. You're not fooling anyone if you try to argue ChampCar was much fairer, had he entered with a team other than NewmanHaas or Player's he would've had no shot at a successful debut and longer stay there either. He can drive, that's why he still has a career, but making it in F1 is the sum of much more than driver talent. As it is in the States, as it is in Japan, as it is other European based series. Otherwise drivers like Tommy Byrne would have made it.

    • @cesarferrolho1647
      @cesarferrolho1647 Před 5 lety +1

      There is an elitist attitude no doubt. But i wouldn't say it's against drivers from American categories, it seems more against anyone who isn't either Finnish, German, British or French, even though i think there was a period where the French where loosing some control on the sport. Maybe the Finnish actually have a great talent pool, but as for the others, they basically have been controlling F1 for many years

    It's a shame there's no top French team in F1 (save for Renault which has its base in Enstone, Great Britain) to have given him a chance. Back when there was Ligier or Prost GP, the French drivers always had a chance to stay in the sport.

    Yeah he would have been on the podium if Vettel didn't disagree with his team manager ho told him to stay 4th and guess what he attacked Bourdais, and they lost time and got passed over by 3 cars clever!!! But anyway Bourdais is an excellent driver if you saw him in champcar and at Le Mans the only thing you have to say is Wow! And the fact that he finnished 2 last day at 24H du Mans means alot...

    Great driver, but his style not suited to the STR F1 setup

    I think Bourdais is a good pilot but he missed some opportunities to prove himself and his capabilities and toro rosso were still the worst team for shuffling pilots... I think he should still be in formula 1.
