The double diffuser helped Brawn score a big points lead before the other teams caught up. I think there were three teams who had the double diffuser from the start of the season with Williams and maybe Toyota being the others. I remember Benson's first season in F1 with Williams. At Spa he told the team one of the track brake markers was in the wrong place. When checked he was proven to be correct. Edited: Big not bit points lead
@@simonkevnorris i think what makes the brawn story even cooler is the fact that williams and toyota did also start the season with the double diffuser. it makes it less that "oh they were the ones who found this loophole and ran away with it before ppl could catch up" and more of a prefect story story, the fact that the "2009 honda" had that aero advantage and they managed to luck into the mercedes engine fitting near perfectly into the chassis, then having 2 brilliant drivers in jenson and rubens
Definitely worth the watch. The Brawn GP car is one of my favourite F1 cars of all time and the story of Brawn GP's 2009 is truly fairytale stuff. As we won't likely ever see a season like it again.
Can't be any worse than some of the wings with in Jeremy Clarkson's words, sex aids on the front. The cars of that era were a bit challenged in the looks department at times.
I watched all 4 episodes today and I loved it. One thing I learned which I’d never heard about without spoiling anything for anyone who’s yet to watch it is when we find out about the camber angles 👍🏻
Just finished it, loved it, was quite the eye opener with all the legal wranglings and infighting, and of course seeing Jenson win his World Championship again is the best part.
Everyone is going to love it. This guy is being absurd and makes it sound as if it’s anything like the BS drive to survive is. This is a million times better and done in fine taste. Just awesome.
Definitely worth watching, I've watched the first two episodes so far and it's interesting how there is still some bitterness notably from Luca di Montezemolo.
Completed it today and loved it. It was quite refreshing to see that Brawn GP race engineers competed against each other and fought for their drivers rather than follow team orders and favor a particular driver and give the 2nd driver alternate race strategies. I would like to see more of that.
Watched it tonight. I thought it was really well done. The part that made me smile most was when Brawn got one over on Ecclestone who thought he'd cornered them but then shot himself in the foot (with the contract).
Just finished it. Found it very well balance and reminded me of how much those cars gave to us as fans. The story was brilliantly told and did a lot of justice to the brawn miracle. The knit picking this guy is doing is absurd. Give me whatever he’s smoking. 🤦🏻♂️
Very well balanced indeed, and told the perspective of each side as it is. I really liked the political behind the scenes, and Luca's frankness about Brawn GP.
Never had an overall favourite F1 driver as a kid I liked so many drivers and was more in love with the sport as a whole but seeing Jenson finally get that chance in a winning car at the time was unbelievable as a fellow Englishman.
I just can't bring myself to pay Disney for access to the one thing they've created worth watching in the last 10 years. F1 TV has all the races of the 2009 season, which is infinitely more entertaining if you ask me.
Me, who has been watching F1 since the 70s when it didn't even have its own programme and you got a few highlights on Grandstand - yeah 2009 is recent :)
damn! must've been a hell of a ride can you name an underrated driver that inspite of his immense talent never got to shine or maybe got overshadowed by someone else ?
@@nerd7387 theres probably dozens of them actually, but here's the first that popped into my head. giancarlo fisichella Never had a good enough car under him, but he certainly had the talent had he been given the chance. But he came up in a time of monsters around him. And early in his career he got out classed by alonso so that shadow kindo of dulled his career from then on.
Been watching f1 myself since 1974. What has f1 become. Back in the day's when the podium driver's was doing the odd interview on a muddy car park at the side of the track, smoking and girl's all round them lol.
Yep. All bar 2 teams got a podium (13 drivers got at least one). 6 teams got a pole position. Teams jumped up and down in the pecking depending on the track . Case in point : Toyota qualified 1-2 in Bahrain and then were on the back row in Monaco
Bro how is di Montezemolo still annoyed by Brawn? He's the one who removed Todt and Brawn from Ferrari, and then Ferrari becomes a shithouse. He did this to himself lmao. Man should cope harder.
One of Honda's worst F1 moments and one of F1's better stories. Very much a tortoise and hare season for brawn, except they started as the hare and morphed into a relative tortoise by the end - but it STILL won!. Scary to remember that that car had no sponsors at the start of the season. 😲
First time seeing Val on screen, he's pretty cool. Very charismatic, easy to listen to. We should get more of him in front of the camera if he's up for it.
I liked that documentary myself. I also saw the Michael Schumacher documentary on Netflix which was also good. But Brawn GP was something and it wasn't just that Keanu Reeves was narrating it. It was also great to see Christian Horner, Felipe Massa and Reubens Barrichello. Also Bernie Ecclestone
My favorite was actually a bit from Bernie to explain the difference in Jenson and Barrichello's results. It's a single line, "Who told you they were the same car?". He then goes on to explain why Rubens had a worse car, Brawn didn't have the money to upkeep two cars in the same condition. But to me it was heartbreaking. He spent the majority of his career in F1 playing second to Schumacher, Ferrari was public about who they gave their resources to and who they wanted to win. As Ferrari made changes throughout a season Michael always got the more developed car on track first, they ordered Ruben to let Michael pass when he did somehow get ahead. They ordered him to make stops so he could defend Michael's position or slow the lead so Schumacher could catch up. He spent his career never being allowed to truly race. Then he signs with Brawn and the only legitimate shot of his career is destroyed by this. His career to me is just sad. Afterwards he'd sign to Williams and he'd spend his final years in F1 putting a backmarker car in the middle of the pack. And somehow, some way, in his final year of F1 he'd put the worst car on the field at one podium finish. I'm not a fan of his but I have always felt sorry for him. He deserved better than the career he got. His career was sacrificed so Michael Schumacher could have his.
It's a good documentary, I have watched two episodes and I have enjoyed what I have watched so far, like other people have said this will never happen to F1 ever again
That was fantastic!! The show I mean =) Just finished it....still a little choked up =) Though a general fan of F1 since the 70s, I missed paying attention to this era. The series drew me in, got me excited and emotional, very very good. Am recommending to all of my friends, whether followers of F1 or not. It's a great story, very well told.
I'm ready for this story. it was a great one to watch through the races, and I think it will be fun to see again through different perspectives. I can imagine in 10 years time, just when the fervor dies down from people who are upset with the way 2021 turned out, someone is going to make a mini series of that F1 season and plunge us all back into the same series of arguments over that season, getting to hear different stories from different people will make it worth it though.
My favortie season of f1. I wish they would do a documentary about Alonso's fight;s with Michae Schumacher. Epic. And how much did the j damper help alonso win? What did it really do? Why is it illegal now?
Very good documentary. As a long-time fan, you already knew a lot, but it was still interesting. And it didn't really feel like 4 hours. Keanu Reeves also did a great job. You can tell he likes motorsport.
I’d venture to say that Keanu has more Motorsport experience, not necessarily knowledge, than most F1 fans. And I’d venture to say he has more Motorsport pedigree than these arm chair pundits. The guy has raced before, he is a rider, and manufactures his own Motorcycles (Arch Motorcycles) but sure….
I thought it was brilliant. It doesn’t just heap praise on Brawn, it was fantastic at providing the context within and without of that title charge. Which is exactly what it should do, it shouldn’t be one sided and I felt it presented all sides really well. Reeves I also thought was excellent, and as someone who’s a petrolhead, it was a very good choice for the topic. He was very enthusiastic for the story, and I think props have to go out to the researchers because he always looked confident with the facts and notes he had
it would be cool if codies could remake F1 2009 since it wasnt on the Playstation an xbox of that current time with a new Brawn GP Story mode aswell as the normal create your own driver pick any team career mode would be very epic i thinks
It was very genuine. I watched this season live and even then there was stuff I didn't know. They got some great people to talk to and Lewis' dad was a great substitute for not having Jenson's around anymore for father sun dynamic RIP. Bernie was very worrying with his comments. Horner was far more likable than in DTS. Ruben's was great
Why tf aren’t you talking about the actual winning driver Jensen Button ?? I don’t even think his name is mentioned in this video at all yet Ruebens is. Jensen is the star character second only to the car imo
No, they didn't do it from that angel, saying that, he did keep that team running over the 3 month period until Honda sold it to him. Was quite the balanced documentary.
@@SD-mi2vcNonono Brawn's car is a carryover from Honda. It's a Honda car with a Mercedes engine. The Brawn's miracle was managing to keep everything running with next to 0 budget.
@@SD-mi2vc No, it wasn't, and Brawn said that himself plenty of times in interviews, people just seem to ignore it. The car was more or less finished by the time he took over because Honda abandoned the 2008 season very early on and focused on making the best possible car for 2009 with Alex Wurz as development driver. Honda then left F1 because of the financial crisis and Brawn saved the team.
Jenson is in he's 40s now and who rembers every little detail come on man. I don't rember all 4 of my kid's birthday's and I'm the same age as Button. Or I can't remember my number plate on my bike and I had it since new 4 year's ago.
It is a amazing fairy tale Ross Brawn and Nick Fry buying team from Honda for 1 pound. The double defuser technology was going to destroy the opposition.
Can’t wait to watch this. This was most certainly the most poignant stories of F1 history. Button who was a good driver but certainly not the best , found himself in this rocket ship , right place right time. I was delighted he won that championship, but even he would say he got lucky that year. Id button around the same standard as Sainz is today and both have similar careers and driving styles.
He deserved the opportunity to have a contending car after having his break out year in 2004 and then years of underperforming cars with Honda (exception being Hungary 2006). I disagree that Button was lucky though.
@@tombardsley3081 He was lucky to find himself in championship winning car. After being kicked out of Williams after one year then i think he was at an under performing Benetton team for 2 years I believe, and then at a Midfield BAR/Honda. To suddenly be a championship winning team was unexpected.
@@AtlanticwayExplorer could say the same with any driver that landed into a championship winning car. Just need to look at Villeneuve and Hamilton for examples of that. Agree about 2000 but as I said from 2004, he showed what he could do. Massively helped BAR as they were at the time get 2nd in the constructors. Not to mention he was beating his teammates. And of course that fantastic drive in Hungary for his first win when he started 14th. Brawn had 2 cars so Button still had to go out there and perform at the level required to win, especially when the car wasn't as good after Turkey
Luca Di Montezemlo came across as arrogant jerk, Bermie was just vile and I'm glad he got completely outsmarted by Brawn's legal team (as did Max Mosely) . I think Jock Clear knows deep down he took things too far that year although he'll never admit it
just finished watching the whole series. It was generally good but I found the presentation style a bit jarring. They didn't dwell on any of the interviewees for very long so you end up with a series of short responses rather than a real conversation. I'm guessing this style is targeting US audiences, and meant to bring more US fans into the sport.
I found out later he did a lot of training to do a lot of the shooting in John Wick. Given Hollywood is pro violence in their movies but completely against me having a couple guns was a bit surprising.
You might want to watch before criticizing. Keanu Reeves has been following and attending races for years, he’s very much a speed freak - is a true (motorcycle) gear head too. Remember, not everyone has been following formula one for decades, so the storytellers are beholden to keep things easier for the new fan to digest. Since Martin Brundle’s first grasp of the microphone, he’s always had a careful way of describing the goings on of the sport with both the avid and novice viewer in mind. Generosity’s not something to be ashamed of, and it’s not a bad thing to share “your” sport with others.
Reeves is about as genuine as you will find in Hollywood. Truly a good guy.
He did a really good job in the documentary. It was really fun to watch.
In a polarizing world, Keanu is one of the few actors that is loved by everyone
Keanu Reeves is the real deal. He's a gearhead, a fan of racing, and there's no doubt he was chosen for those reasons.
Actually, the whole doc was his idea
In 2009, everyone was a brawn fan. A true underdog story and just amazing to see button who isn't always considered that fast but dearly loved by many
The double diffuser helped Brawn score a big points lead before the other teams caught up.

@@sophiaemily1819Honda does what Toyota don’t.
We did not.
Not quite the underdog story it’s made out to be. Honda spent so much money on this project and brawn spent a year developing this concept.
Definitely worth the watch. The Brawn GP car is one of my favourite F1 cars of all time and the story of Brawn GP's 2009 is truly fairytale stuff. As we won't likely ever see a season like it again.

I loved the season but I disliked those cars so much lol
'09~'21 gosh... rule makers only had ugly cars in mind lol
It’s probably why the F1 teams doesn’t want Andretti and GM team in formula one 2024.
Amazingly , Williams also came up with te double diffuser and no KERS, however they did not win a single race in that season
Without Whitmarsh they wouldn't have had an engine. Completely underappreciated figure in this story.

Yeah, the fact that they got Jenson to play himself is incredible!
Read Ross Brawn’s book for details on the double difusor.
It's well known that Mr. Reeves loves motorcycles and cars. I'm sure he's not doing any acting in this doc.
Going to watch this today. I really hope they’ve done a good job
I’d recommend to anyone unfamiliar with the sport. It felt very accessible, as well as being a great intro how F1 used to work.
It is worth listening to the audio book- Total Competition written by Adam Parr and Ross Brawn. It tells the story with more depth and detail.

After being kicked out of Williams after one year then i think he was at an under performing Benetton team for 2 years I believe, and then at a Midfield BAR/Honda.
To suddenly be a championship winning team was unexpected.
@@AtlanticwayExplorer could say the same with any driver that landed into a championship winning car. Just need to look at Villeneuve and Hamilton for examples of that. Agree about 2000 but as I said from 2004, he showed what he could do. Massively helped BAR as they were at the time get 2nd in the constructors. Not to mention he was beating his teammates. And of course that fantastic drive in Hungary for his first win when he started 14th. Brawn had 2 cars so Button still had to go out there and perform at the level required to win, especially when the car wasn't as good after Turkey
Luca Di Montezemlo came across as arrogant jerk, Bermie was just vile and I'm glad he got completely outsmarted by Brawn's legal team (as did Max Mosely) . I think Jock Clear knows deep down he took things too far that year although he'll never admit it
Camera work not matching commentary? Sounds exactly like F1.
just finished watching the whole series. It was generally good but I found the presentation style a bit jarring. They didn't dwell on any of the interviewees for very long so you end up with a series of short responses rather than a real conversation. I'm guessing this style is targeting US audiences, and meant to bring more US fans into the sport.
Need to sort out the hum on Glenn's video. Just throw a high pass filter across it
Zhou Guanyu and Christian Horner???
How old were you in 2009? :)
Twice Honda pulled out from an F1 to be World Champions.
sucks that it is only avalible in the UK 😭

Available in NZ
a vpn my dude
@@husamalosh329 don't got a VPN so I will need to get one first lol
@@marcelinamichaek3580 I red a article that said it is only in the UK but I guess not 😂
How are you already watching it?
piratebay
It’s been out since 8am uk time
Why the hell can’t I watch it?
It appears to be only released in some markets. Try a VPN with a UK server. That worked for me
It's on Hulu in the States. Disney+ in Europe.
Star of the show has to be Barrichello's hair plugs.
Keanu Reeves is a petrol head so I guess it didn't take a lot to get him interested.
I found out later he did a lot of training to do a lot of the shooting in John Wick. Given Hollywood is pro violence in their movies but completely against me having a couple guns was a bit surprising.
this ain't no disney shit this is hulu
How much Andrew Shovlin has changed 🤔
You might want to watch before criticizing.
Keanu Reeves has been following and attending races for years, he’s very much a speed freak - is a true (motorcycle) gear head too.
Remember, not everyone has been following formula one for decades, so the storytellers are beholden to keep things easier for the new fan to digest. Since Martin Brundle’s first grasp of the microphone, he’s always had a careful way of describing the goings on of the sport with both the avid and novice viewer in mind.
Generosity’s not something to be ashamed of, and it’s not a bad thing to share “your” sport with others.
there’s nothing disney can’t ruin.
Good old johnny silverhand
