Well, on Lando's side of the story would be: I know the rate of how slippery the track is becoming, therefore I should make the call instead of the team. Eventually, his prediction based on his "feelings" was wrong and those at the pit knew better. So Mercedes made a better decision at the end. Dramatic :)
It could have so easily had gone the other way, if the rain had cleared people would have been calling him a legend. That's what motor racing is all about though.
Same with Danny. He held of Lewis for 25 laps or something and then held off Max until the rain started. He's the reason Lando even had a fighting chance at the end
Carlos just overtook Leclerc in the driver's standings, in his first year with Ferrari vs a extremely talented guy who raced there for years. Isn't that worthy of an applause?
Sainz WILL challenge the other contenders for the title if Ferrari is a top contender in 2022. That man is forcing Ferrari to be a two driver team. F1 needs to put respect on his name.
I'm glad Ive watched this one live. Thrilling battle for first between Hamilton and Norris. Heartbreak for Lando, historic win for Hamilton, and my oh my, P20 to P2 Max.
@@bariscelik9819 every thing Lewis does is great, everything Max does is luck. Still far better drive than overrated drive of Hamilton in Brazil with rocket engine and safety car.
I’m an American so it was really early in the morning for me. My alarm didn’t go off and I missed it. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
Exciting race but his team f up. Asking Lando, what do think about inter. What do you think a young driver that can sniff the flag is going to say. Of course he wants to stay out. Drivers take risk against other drivers the engineers gamble on a young driver to make critical evaluations about the car and weather. The difference between Merc Engineers and the engineers at McLaren. Merc was decisive, didn't care about Lewis opinion. There was nothing to learn here.
i don't know how you live your life, but i don't pat myself on the back for "nearly" doing anything. i certainly don't care if alonso "nearly" did something
@@Kevinschart Well I don’t know you live your life either, but Alonso is a x2 wdc, and you’ll always be a bitter troll. I doubt he cares much for you either with his accolades in this sport
@@mago97615 I literally said forsure and after others made the wrong call, I don't know who you're trying to argue with. I'm just stating that it wasn't all about the intermediates for Verstappen, because if he hadn't passed Ric & Sainz he would have finished 4th. They all pitted at the same time for inters. ( I wasnt talking about any other drivers, and i do agree, alonso was really strong)
@RYG Talking absolute nonsense. Haha. He took a risk. And it didn't pay off. That's it. He'll learn and improve. As for his attitude at Monza. Who wouldn't be upset. He had the pace to pass Ricardo, but he put the team first and didn't fight him. That shows great character, exactly what you want in a teammate
I feel so sorry for Lando, such an amazing drive and pace. I just want to hug him and whisper to his ear that in Soviet Russia you always change rubber before it gets too wet. ALWAYS.
@@sunflowersofinferno7904 That’s cringe, I can understand not liking a driver but calling someone a fraud when they drove brilliantly shows you’re hating.
I don't he was told to come in and he refused He'd almost binned it on the previous lap it was fast approaching undrivable on slicks. Hamilton was sliding around too the difference is he trusted his team and had less to lose an had virtually a free stop
Imagine telling someone in 2019 that the French, Hungarian and Russian gp were the most exciting races to watch in 2021, they would say you re crazy Edit: I didnt include Azerbaijan because every race from 2017-onwards has been thrilling, I included Hungary because 2019 was just a duel between Lewis and Max for only like 20 laps. And I didnt include Bahrain for the same reason like Baku
We don't talk enough about Max's last to 2nd here tbh. Amazing how many moments this season you can go back and say "That was the difference in the championship". Just spectacularly close competition all seaosn
I was noticing that during the race. All the great stuff going on that I was aware was happening at every moment (even sitting in my couch) was being dismissed almost purposely by the director. It's like there was a deal to avoid showing the best on track battles while boring the viewers with lap after lap of the same car not attacking or being attacked by anyone. One of the worst broadcasts of the year, close to the disgrace that was Monaco.
@@hjr_official yeah, I was thinking exactly this during the race... like show me verstappen overtaking or literally anything else, that isnt Lando going around corners while being 3s apart from car behind... the race directors are such a joke
@@ProWajxxx Precisely. There were top drivers carving through the field and lots of midfield battles going on, and we were being shown endless laps of the leading car driving by himself. All the action was only shown in replays, which is a joke.

What a roller coaster of a race. Heartbreaking to see Lando Norris lose out so much, but cool to see Max and George storm through the field at the very end.
@@adibzainulzaky his engineer wasn't firm enough like bono. Bono repeated multiple times to lewis to box so he did, unfortunately land never got the call they only asked him questions. I think McLaren should've taken their responsibility as the team and as the engineers that have all the information to call him in instead of listening to lando.
@@scully2671 they had information about the Rain, so they asked lando, wanna pit? Cause he should say how the track is. If Lando Pitet everyone would have said "Lando is GOAT, pitted in the right moment" and no one would have cared that it was Maclaren who told him. But in this situation it is Lando's fault.
@@oldcrawfish5008 I think it's both their faults Lando should have listened a bit more and the team should've talked more in the end it's disappointing and we can't do anything about it. But I still think the team should've have called him in like bono did with Lewis.
@@erikschwartz1214 lol I saw u in 2 or 3 comments here itself. So pathetic that u r trying to laugh at the most successful man in f1 whom u don't like. Try to do something in Ur real life man, instead of mocking the one's u don't like while they r actually winning.
This was quite the Anxiety inducing race, constantly wondering whether Lando could hold on and then the heartbreak with the rain situation. What a race!
@@Louis-vo8fd Disagree, all the cars behind Daniel were absolutely flying once he boxed compared to him before. I dont think Daniel had the pace today to get the podium.
I mean he was p7 then Leclerc spun, Lando did a whatever he did, Alonso Perez pit too late and lost a million hours. Great strategy and timing to go for the inters, he has the opportunity handed to him but most importantly he was there to take it.
Heartbroken for Lando. The final laps were insane. Made me really realise why I love F1 and how quickly it can change. Main surprised of the final laps were Bottas and Verstappen.
@@erikschwartz1214 Like Verstappen lucky to drive the most updated car in the game , and the fastest . Oh wait , this kind of comment only applies to Hamilton , according to the blind haters .
Definitely going to be a battle. I think max a slight advantage w upcoming tracks but It will still Be really close. If max is ahead going into ABU DHABI it’s over. LH won’t beat max on that track. The constructors is over. Bottas is more consistent than checo over a season.
To be fair, both of them were stuck in the DRS train for quite some time despite having faster cars.. Lewis behind Riccardo and Max behind Vettel/Gasly... But yes their experience helped them take a right call when it mattered at the end.
Such a bad call. The team knew, they should've forced him in especially if Mercedes were doing the same. They would've seen Merc crew get ready in time to call him in. Disappointing from Lando, he only has himself to blame really. But he will learn. 2-3 years he will be fighting for championship.
@@Harvles93 yes honestly... Mercedes ordered and forced a 7 time world champion against his decision... McLaren should've done the same because they have all the data and weather forecast... Lando can't see any of that
@@abirgaming1502 To be fair, if it didnt just start going crazy within minutes, he would've definitely been able to stay ahead. But as you have stated, he doesnt have the forecast data, the team definitely should've forced the move, even when they came on radio they seemed to be very reliant on Landos decision. Seems odd to me but they definitely have learnt a major lesson here. Not long ago did something similar happen to Verstappen when Hamilton pitted for inters and won. A few races later, the opposite happened. Its part and parcel of the game but Mclaren should've taken Mercedes forceful decision as their que.
0:26 Best shots of the F1 schedule. Sochi, turn3 carousel. Both last years and this year's camera shots were on point there. Although this year the shots were shaky, I think it might have added to the thrill.
Carlos Sainz is the definition of underrated Man performs spectacularly every weekend consistently but always gets overshadowed by other dramatic stuff happening. He has literally never won DOTD in his whole 7 years in F1.
True. I feel like the TV coverage contributes a lot to this. He had some spectacular drives while at Mclaren which most people didn't get to see. I was hoping the story would change in Ferrari but it is just not happening. Mclaren is getting more coverage than ever as well as the Aston Martins.
indeed, from point of infrastructure this one of the best circuit in the world. it's not a track problem if recent cars can't sit on rear wing. f2 and f3 have nice races, especially because of really wide track which hold 4 cars in a row.
yup i was going crazy when i saw in the standings that he got ahead of perez for p3 at some point between those crazy final laps (which obviously was missed by the broadcast. excusable though given the crazyness that was going around). and idk what happened with him afterwards when the weather flipped but i'd guess he chose to gamble and stayed a bit longer on slicks or just had bad timing on the pit window. but im feeling his moment will come soon :))
Yea straight lining on the first lap. Then when he overtook Checo he lost it again but this was when the rain came down. Checo overtook him and Sainz so if there was no rain the final podium would have been Norris Hamilton Checo.
@@debendragurung3033 Definitely, but Red Bull and Max were the ones who capitalized on the changing conditions the most. I actually for a moment thought that the statistics must be faulty, when I saw that Max had climbed up to P3 in one lap and was catching Lando quick.
Well, this might be one of the best seasons in our lifetime, when even the most boring track on the calendar gives us an insane racing experience. And thankfully the title fight is still very close. Fell bad for Lando however. Way to go, young man. You'll get there.
I don't feel bad for Lando. I started the race saying "he's always such a nice bloke" ... but by the end, the was he was handling his radios, the attitude and the shouting, I was glad he lost

“Lando what do you think about Inter?”
“NOOO!”
Top ten costly decisions
@f1 please look into that
Top 10 heartbroken anime moments
I think he was a bit scared to loose the lead.... Of course he faced his fear so fast....
Hamilton didnt wanted them either, but he was overruled
The team shouldn't suggest it. Dry to wet tyre is ALWAYS the pit wall's decision. They know when it rains
Can't control weather, but you can control what you wear. and Lando said " NOOOOOOO"
Well, on Lando's side of the story would be: I know the rate of how slippery the track is becoming, therefore I should make the call instead of the team. Eventually, his prediction based on his "feelings" was wrong and those at the pit knew better. So Mercedes made a better decision at the end. Dramatic :)
He is still a kid. He will learn from this and get better. It’s always a learning opportunity for all of them on the track.
so did Lewis, the lap before he pitted he was called in and said No . Mercedes made the call, McLaren weren't as sharp.
It could have so easily had gone the other way, if the rain had cleared people would have been calling him a legend. That's what motor racing is all about though.

I swear Sainz gets no praise whatsoever… more people are talking about George getting a point than Sainz getting a podium with an amazing drive.
He is not English, most people in F1 tend to prefer English drivers, Alonso has said that many times and it is still true.
@@pedrott668 but still, Charles gets a lot of attention. When Ferrari is mentioned it’s always Charles it’s like Carlos doesn’t even drive for them.
i wouldn't say amazing drive, he did drop down a lot. because of not managing to overtake and bad tactic and only got the podium because of the rain.
He had a terrible middle stint and leclerc would have overtaken him without rain tbh
Same with Danny. He held of Lewis for 25 laps or something and then held off Max until the rain started. He's the reason Lando even had a fighting chance at the end
We need extended highlights for the last 7 laps, with team radio and all the spins that we miss.

Meeeh best Grand Prix of this season was Azerbaijan definitely. France was boring, Hungarian very entertaining and Russian also 😉
The Hungarian track just old but gold.. Never boring
Maybe Abu Dhabi will be interesting
rewatching doesnt hurt as much now norris has won
Who's here after Lando's first F1 win?
What a roller coaster of a race. Heartbreaking to see Lando Norris lose out so much, but cool to see Max and George storm through the field at the very end.
Lando should've listened to his race engineer but yeah sad to see him lose the race tho
@@adibzainulzaky his engineer wasn't firm enough like bono. Bono repeated multiple times to lewis to box so he did, unfortunately land never got the call they only asked him questions. I think McLaren should've taken their responsibility as the team and as the engineers that have all the information to call him in instead of listening to lando.
@@scully2671 they had information about the Rain, so they asked lando, wanna pit? Cause he should say how the track is. If Lando Pitet everyone would have said "Lando is GOAT, pitted in the right moment" and no one would have cared that it was Maclaren who told him. But in this situation it is Lando's fault.
It's also cool to see Hamilton get his 100th win
@@oldcrawfish5008 I think it's both their faults Lando should have listened a bit more and the team should've talked more in the end it's disappointing and we can't do anything about it. But I still think the team should've have called him in like bono did with Lewis.
Even sochi showed us a spectacular race, how amazing this season is
The guys who were laughing at Lewis yesterday are crying from their mom's basement right now after seeing Lando skid out. That's karma for you 🤣

Best driver today in my opinion is Max, he went from 20th to 2nd in a very competitive field. What a drive
Lando, Carlos, and George will definitely get their respective first career wins soon. Congratulations on your 100th career win Lewis!

This was quite the Anxiety inducing race, constantly wondering whether Lando could hold on and then the heartbreak with the rain situation. What a race!
Norris could have still won if he pitted when his team told him.
@@xThePsychoNautx yes 100% without a doubt :(
@@xThePsychoNautx He took the gamble and he lost it. Could have gone the other way, but it wasn't. He will learn from that

Fun fact: You are Here after Lando's First Win
Who would have thought that the last Russian Grand Prix gave us such an exciting race. What a shame!
One of the most hated Formula 1® venue but with happy ending.
This was very close to Lando and Daniel both being back on the podium. Super intense race
Very incorrect cause how would Ricciardo get a podium
@@MaxBarwell-sx6ir with a better pit stop
@@Louis-vo8fd Disagree, all the cars behind Daniel were absolutely flying once he boxed compared to him before. I dont think Daniel had the pace today to get the podium.
Daniel had no chance of catching Max. What a drive by Max
@@richard_nj Had Mc not been spooked into pitting Daniel. I think they may have had a chance.
Max being so silent, and then he just "Hello there!" on the podium
I mean he was p7 then Leclerc spun, Lando did a whatever he did, Alonso Perez pit too late and lost a million hours. Great strategy and timing to go for the inters, he has the opportunity handed to him but most importantly he was there to take it.
@@pixelboujee Gianpiero: "Keep it on the gray stuff"
Heartbroken for Lando. The final laps were insane. Made me really realise why I love F1 and how quickly it can change. Main surprised of the final laps were Bottas and Verstappen.
after almost 3 years he win yeees lando
Not seeing enough appreciation for kimi coming p8 in alfa and alonso's overtakes!!
Legends!
Amazing
and Vettel overtakes on Russel, Raikkonen, Ocon and Stroll aswell as his defence on Leclerc and Verstappen
V10 veterans are shining
Completely agree. I posted some of his overtakes on my channel as we didn't get to see them live
Gutted for Lando, but at least the title fight is still close 🤷♂️

The real winner today was Verstappen. Mercedes is prolly shook.
@@Caleb_K yep, I never though max would end up 2nd
The title fight would still be close if there was a 100pt gap because merc and FIA can always make it happen.

4:42 that noise sums up how it felt watching this race
It definetely is going to be a battle until the last race between hamilton and max. Truly insane.
Most gp's are RedBull-tracks from now on, Lewis should have 30/40 points in front after today...!
Today if Hamilton didn't listen to his team like Norris did and stayed 2 laps more with the old tires.. we could see different winner maybe :)
It's advantage Red Bull from now, unless crashes.
Definitely going to be a battle. I think max a slight advantage w upcoming tracks but It will still Be really close. If max is ahead going into ABU DHABI it’s over. LH won’t beat max on that track.
The constructors is over. Bottas is more consistent than checo over a season.
@@paco_lord87 Verstappen might have won in that scenario. Norris should've pitted. He would have won
6:00 I wonder how long they have been waiting to use that "100 victory" montage hahaha
Such a perfect start. No crashing out of any car. This is how we'd love to see every race begin.
George Russell to Lando: “First time?”
No second time. F**K, IT'S BWOKEN !

Watching that back, this was something incredible. How people treat him the way they do is beyond me.
I'm blown away that no one has mentioned Kimi working his way into the points after being nowhere in quali
Dude. Exactly.
Just too much stuff happening, unfortunately. Not everything will get noticed.
so this is kimi's full potential when you give him the drink?
Meh it’s only a hobby for him
ikr, if im not mistaken he gain so much position because he is one of the first to put inters on
One of the most enthralling races from start to finish. 7 minutes of highlights won’t do it justice. What a season it has been 🙌

LH just always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Hat's off to him and his team.
If Lando stays out and gets the win, he’s a genius for not pitting. He took the chance and it just didn’t work out.
We tricked him. That's how great my team is.
yup - if he pitted, Hamilton stays out, and vice versa, so it was really a bet on the rain - he bet it wouldn't rain hard enough.
I don't think he knew torrential rain would come up, he was asked when there was a slight rain
Mclaren should have said it would get worse like mercedes too
Never a genius . It was blind gamble move. Team have better situation awareness than driver about the weather especially in rain.
That escape road at the start was a life hack also man F1 in 2021 was exciting
Prior to this season, I wouldn't even dare to think that a Sochi race would be much more fun than Spa. 2021, you really taught us. Respect
Everyone (with 5 laps to go): Ohh it's over now
Russian GP: Hold my Dmitry
Its just incredible to see two absolutely insane drivers like Lewis and Max just carve up the field like a Christmas turkey
Big agree
To be fair, both of them were stuck in the DRS train for quite some time despite having faster cars.. Lewis behind Riccardo and Max behind Vettel/Gasly... But yes their experience helped them take a right call when it mattered at the end.
I do agree but I do think DRS needs to go it ruins a lot of races.
@@AkshatKai I feel like to was more the teams experience, as Mercedes forced Lewis to box.

WHO IS HERE AFTER LANDO NORRIS WINS MIAMI GRAND PRIX
me!
Radio:“ lando how do you feel about winning?”
Lando : “NOOOOO”
Such a bad call. The team knew, they should've forced him in especially if Mercedes were doing the same. They would've seen Merc crew get ready in time to call him in. Disappointing from Lando, he only has himself to blame really. But he will learn. 2-3 years he will be fighting for championship.
@@Harvles93 yes honestly... Mercedes ordered and forced a 7 time world champion against his decision... McLaren should've done the same because they have all the data and weather forecast... Lando can't see any of that
@@abirgaming1502 To be fair, if it didnt just start going crazy within minutes, he would've definitely been able to stay ahead. But as you have stated, he doesnt have the forecast data, the team definitely should've forced the move, even when they came on radio they seemed to be very reliant on Landos decision. Seems odd to me but they definitely have learnt a major lesson here. Not long ago did something similar happen to Verstappen when Hamilton pitted for inters and won. A few races later, the opposite happened. Its part and parcel of the game but Mclaren should've taken Mercedes forceful decision as their que.
0:26 Best shots of the F1 schedule. Sochi, turn3 carousel.
Both last years and this year's camera shots were on point there. Although this year the shots were shaky, I think it might have added to the thrill.
Ok
Hamilton and verstappen leclerc
@@DeangeloGaming what?
Who else thinks that 2021 was an interesting season for F1?
Me.
Carlos Sainz is the definition of underrated
Man performs spectacularly every weekend consistently but always gets overshadowed by other dramatic stuff happening. He has literally never won DOTD in his whole 7 years in F1.
Also has more points than leglerc now.
I had never realized that he has never been driver of the day is that info correct?
True. I feel like the TV coverage contributes a lot to this. He had some spectacular drives while at Mclaren which most people didn't get to see. I was hoping the story would change in Ferrari but it is just not happening. Mclaren is getting more coverage than ever as well as the Aston Martins.
And even Red Bull who were looking for someone to partner Max never thought of giving him an opportunity.
@@bkl43 yeah I thought that finally at Ferrari whould get his screen time , but looks like tv directors don't like him .

The best race I’ve seen in 2021 so far!

Man this season, even the worst circuit in the calander gave us this thrilling race
Worst circuit is Abu Dhabi
We're not to Saudi Arabia yet I'm afraid...
Not much, Monaco wasn't as eventful.
monaco is worst and it was boring
indeed, from point of infrastructure this one of the best circuit in the world. it's not a track problem if recent cars can't sit on rear wing. f2 and f3 have nice races, especially because of really wide track which hold 4 cars in a row.
One of the most entertaining races of the season. Watching this live was heart-wrenching at every moment.
What a beautiful Race Track. Best I've ever seen...
Definitely one of the best races in 2021...

Alonso is the real star. He passed redbulls ferrari(sainz) and mclaren(ric) with his alphine. Legend
yup i was going crazy when i saw in the standings that he got ahead of perez for p3 at some point between those crazy final laps (which obviously was missed by the broadcast. excusable though given the crazyness that was going around).
and idk what happened with him afterwards when the weather flipped but i'd guess he chose to gamble and stayed a bit longer on slicks or just had bad timing on the pit window.
but im feeling his moment will come soon :))
He also cheated on lap 1 😂
Yeah, straight lining the start was dodgy aF
Yea straight lining on the first lap. Then when he overtook Checo he lost it again but this was when the rain came down. Checo overtook him and Sainz so if there was no rain the final podium would have been Norris Hamilton Checo.
