Unreal scenes, what a season finale. Hats off to both drivers for bringing us all the best F1 season of all time. 👏👏 A season that will be remembered forever 🙌
Every time I revisit the final lap, watching the safety car restarting & croftys coommentary, I can remember my heartbeat spiking higher than it ever could on that special day, just unforgettable.
same here mate, the best season ever in f1, and although the racing itself on that lap was incredible, croft can just generate the excitement on the tip of his tongue. what a race. what a season
Checo is an absolute beast. Some heavy lifting there. This season, Checo and Alonso has shown how F1 is a team sport. Not just in the pits but on track as well Give Checo a huge raise Red Bull! You owe him big time for this. And he deserves a giant slice of that celebratory cake.
Checo is a beast and an awesome teammate. I think next year he will find more consistency and continue to get more and more comfortable in the car that we all know is built for Max. Incredible job by Red Bull
I thought he showed some top notch racecraft. Direct message to Lewis that in equal cars, he won't just blaze through and keep winning with racers like Checo around.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Checo drive so hard when he was against Hamilton. You can truly see the passion he had for his teammate to go past his limit to give max the advantage. Enough to make a grown man cry
Literal tears happened when watching this recap and seeing that again. Didn’t realize just how important that was until after the race ended. Sheer will
Honestly checo's defending shows his class as one of the top drivers in the grid. Not many people have the racecraft to hold up a 7 time world champion on way older tyres.Absolute class by checo.
Honestly latifi's crashing shows his class as of the the top drivers in the grid. Not many people have the racecraft to crash on way older tyres.Absolute class by latifi.
Sergio Perez fully deserves all the praise he gets for defending like a true champion. He's knows for tyre management but today he's shown his worth as the 2nd driver for red bull. Gasly, Albon would nowhere be able to eat 6 seconds like Perez did. He kept his individual goals aside for team glory and he's helped max with the title
@@granofuru As Mikko explains, if Hamilton had another 6 or 7 seconds on Verstappen, he would've been able to pit during the safety car for free. You need 14 seconds to pit during the safety car, when it was called Max was 11 behind hamilton. an extra 6 seconds means hamilton WOULD'VE pit and still emerged P1, and probably kept his lead. Though it would've been a great last lap fight between Max and Lewis on fresh softs.
As a LH fan probably i've watched this over 100 times and can't get over it, even though it was so unfair decision in the final lap but we can't say anything bad to the season. definitely one of the best in history of F1. No matter if you like the result or not. That is how the sport works, nobody can win em all.
The only unfair decision was made when LH didn't have to give the position back on lap 1. Mercedes could pit Hamilton as well under safety car and he could win. Bad tactics from Mercedes. A great season that was.
@@ErnestDziadekGruzthe overtake and not giving the position back is debatable, only half the lapped cars overtaking and race restarting on the same lap is against the rules

What a class act by Lewis’s Dad Anthony. Coming over and congratulating Max and his Dad Jos. He knows the pride and elation that he feels for his son. It was such respect and humbleness shown. Like.....enjoy this moment as I’ve been there and know what it means and how you feel. Such a great moment. Well done to both drivers for such a thriller. Looking forward to next season. Max you beauty!!!! Also Checo is an absolute beast.....that was unbelievable. Put everything on the line for the team on the day and the tow during qualifying. What a team mate!!
Icl Hamilton has more respect than verstappen, he stood on that podium without having an ego and celebrated despite losing the championship while in Jeddah, verstappen lost the race in better circumstances compared to this and yet he just walked off the podium
Couldn't agree more, that tow Max got during qualy was a joy to watch. The defense put up by Checo against Hamilton was absolutely incredible given the state of his tyres.
On a worn, 20 laps old softs! How u can not love this guy? Its the best teammate u can have by your side. Much love for Checo, can't wait to see them both in next season!
Did not finish on the Podium, so was not fighting for the lead as did not have the pace. All he did was ruin Lewis's race. I don't care who won out of Lewis or Max, don't like either. But what Checo did in my mind was wrong. And I would say the same if Bottas did it to Max.
@Erik Netjes I said for me. I find it poor form. And have said it for years. It's not fair because another driver is interfering in 2 drivers racing. And the driver interfering is not on pace and does not finish on the podium. Anyway, it is my opinion.

Dunno why they (Mercs) can't accept that Verstappen was the best driver this year but they were the best team. Its exactly how I would rate the season.
@@petertheawesome1 Well yeah, in order for Verstappen to have a chance at the WC against the dominant Merc, red bull had to run a low downforce setup which hurts the tyres in the race. The odds were stacked against him, but he got a bit of luck and utilized it. It's really pathetic to see how much sore losers Hamilton stans are.
Sad that he couldn't finish his final race. I wanted to hear his cooldown lap radio 😔 A true legend of the sport that stayed strong for twenty years. Thank you Kimi! ❤
In the end it really meant nothing because Lewis left Max behind as soon as he cleared Checo and if it wasn’t for the caution Lewis would’ve beat max by at least 12 seconds
That half of a lap of Checo's giving Max that 6 seconds or so back was hair raising. It was like watching some comeback kid disney sports movie from the 90s.
What a legendary drive by Perez, an absolute delight to watch. Alonso n Perez showed extraordinary bits of greatness this season, showing why they still deserve to be in the lineup. Gotta appreciate the brilliance of "other" drivers too and not get blinded by the hate/love for Max/Lewis.
"That was about all Perez can do" says the commentator "or was it?" Amazing move by Sergio Perez holding Hamilton back by "playing the ultimate team game". Checo Perez is Legend.
That may have been, but didn’t change much because with 5 laps left, Ham was leading by 11sec.. a sure done deal until that pure luck “the crash”.. the rest is history.. one lap on new soft tires vs expensed hard tires.. no brain there!
I just want to remind people that Bottas too... is an absolute Legend for the things he has done for Mercedes and Hamilton over the years, of playing the ultimate team game! I hope he does well in Alfa! Checo and Perez: Best sidekicks of F1!!
The year that I get into F1, and I’m blessed with this exciting finale… What a amazing season, thank you to all the drivers for this incredible experience! I’m totally looking forward to next years season and the brand new car!
dont forget super lucky hammilton all the season ... remember ocon crash with max on lap overtake ..... last race lewis crash 2 time and car still work ..... 15 sec pit stop for max ..... silverstone and .......
I like that Checo was a not so noticeable factor this race: his work made Mercedes keep Ham out of pits both safety cars and arrive at the end with disadvantage, and, as the Champion said "what a legend!"
Perez is trash. He was UTTERLY DESTROYED and HUMILIATED by Max this season. Anything but a legend. Calm down Perez fanboys (imagine being a Perez fan lol) Call me whatever you want but the standings don’t lie.
The race that had it all ! tension, joy, disappointment, drama, despair, plot twist, super racing. We should see this every season regardless of drivers.
Absolutely disgusting so many comments have been removed. F1 cannot stomach the fact that there were so many comments about the FIA breaking their own safety regulations and sporting rules to give an unfair 1 lap shootout for entertainment. And the fact that those comments had thousands of likes each!
Checo held back Lewis by about 10 seconds, just class racing craft. This was amzing battle from both Lewis and Max, to me both were winners after such a spectacle.
I always tell myself to keep watching every sport game/race to the end because crazy moments always happen. This race did not disappoint. What a race and what a season.
From the moment Verstappen overtakes Hamilton until the end of the race is the best sports commentary I've ever heard. The delivery and timing are just perfect. Thanks to the entire broadcast crew for absolutely nailing the documentation and commentary of this thrilling finish. It's quite simply one of the greatest sports highlights of all-time.
You do understand that, in the end, it was purely the latifi incident + the incoherence of the FIA that awarded max's title. Max could have been 1 minute behind lewis for that matter, because with the safety car he would still be able to catch up anyway. I mean, the defense from checo was great but it meant absolutely nothing...
I remember falling asleep watching after Hamilton had an 18 second lead. I woke up to Christian Horner being interviewed and that’s when I knew I missed the greatest Latifi moment of all time.
I was sound asleep throughout the whole race cause it was at a ridiculous time for me and I had a really bad headache. When I got up in the morning I made sure to not check the news or anything, I went straight on TH-cam to watch the race highlights and went from thinking I'm never gonna watch this sport ever again cause no matter what Lewis and Mercedes always win to being the happiest man alive seeing my man Max finally win that first World Title that was so long overdue
Let's all congratulate Yuki Tsunoda for a fine race for 4th place. I think it's fair to say we've all witness his temper and him being a rookie and how in 1 season he has grown as a racer.
well he did somewhat improve to the end of the season, but lets be realistic. this hasnt been an impressive season by him (just look at gasly). one great result at the end doesnt change that. lets see what happens next season before jumping to conclusions here...
Sainz is so under rated. Beat both Charles and Lando over the course of a season and finished it off on a podium. Title contender for sure in the future.
It is nothing, he only had the advantage the he knew Hamilton will JUMP out of the way if he gets close to avoid contact! If it has been somewhere in the beginning of the season he would have just gone by....
It was awful . I was there. Everyone was shocked. I have a question . Because I will start my activity on TH-cam soon, I want to know what time of day do you usually spend on TH-cam? My best friend has hit TH-cam, but he has a problem with the hours of activity of his audience. I suggested his channel on the first page of my channel. thanks
My heart's pumpin, felt like I was in the race. Insane driving to finish off a mad season (best ever). Max will have a little statue of Perez going into the man cave😄

In the end it really meant nothing because Lewis left Max behind as soon as he cleared Checo and if it wasn’t for the caution Lewis would’ve beat max by at least 12 seconds
And what he did was blocking Ham from getting the cheap pit stop of the virtual safety car, GRANDE Checo

An unforgettable season. What a year!
"That was about all Perez can do" says the commentator "or was it?" Amazing move by Sergio Perez holding Hamilton back by "playing the ultimate team game". Checo Perez is Legend.
That may have been, but didn’t change much because with 5 laps left, Ham was leading by 11sec.. a sure done deal until that pure luck “the crash”.. the rest is history.. one lap on new soft tires vs expensed hard tires.. no brain there!
@@bigben3205 Lewis would’ve had a free pit stop if checo hadn’t slowed Hamilton down. Verstappen gained over 8 seconds in those two laps
I just want to remind people that Bottas too... is an absolute Legend for the things he has done for Mercedes and Hamilton over the years, of playing the ultimate team game! I hope he does well in Alfa! Checo and Perez: Best sidekicks of F1!!

@Joanna ok we don’t need your opinion Ms BOT
Absolutely disgusting so many comments have been removed.

And the fact that those comments had thousands of likes each!

1:39 - Sergio Pérez is an unsung hero. He fought off Lewis so well, and then seeing Max close the distance on them gives me goosebumps.

You gotta admit if Latifi didnt have that accident, its Hamiltons Champion all the way!
I’ve never seen a team driver(Perez) impede another driver (Ham) for their teammates championship.
Did Bottas drive that way against Max?

When he was defending against Hamilton on older tires I was cheering him on. I could hear Alonso’s voice saying “defend like a Lion!”
Checo held back Lewis by about 10 seconds, just class racing craft.
This was amzing battle from both Lewis and Max, to me both were winners after such a spectacle.
Cuando los easter eg de 2042??
A legend once said “ I don’t have to help you but I can.” Checo
Lewis disrespected Checo in press conference . Now Checo got his revenge and showed him what he can do on a comparatively slower car and torn tyres .

You do understand that, in the end, it was purely the latifi incident + the incoherence of the FIA that awarded max's title. Max could have been 1 minute behind lewis for that matter, because with the safety car he would still be able to catch up anyway. I mean, the defense from checo was great but it meant absolutely nothing...
"Checo is a legend", is definitely top 3 driver's radio for the season.

That must hurt permanently…
Let's all congratulate Yuki Tsunoda for a fine race for 4th place. I think it's fair to say we've all witness his temper and him being a rookie and how in 1 season he has grown as a racer.
