As a diehard nascar fan I am blown away by how in depth, high detail, and consice you explained nearly everything you need to know about nascar in 1 video... While showing what the race atmosphere is like! I've grown up with this sport and was so excited to have this video recommended to me. I can honestly say it's better than what most nascar content is for new viewers and I for sure will share this with people that want to get into watching nascar.
Thank you so much! I invite you to watch my contents and my Races on my new channel :)

Everything this guy said ☝️💯..from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 👋 🤠
@@AlbertoNaskaDELETED very well done! i enjoyed it and subbed...i hope you come back to cover nascar maybe in July when they race a street race in Chicago!
same
It’s really a shame Nascar can’t seem to make content this good.
I’m blown away that someone who’s never really watched nascar before and is into Euro auto racing made probably the most detailed, packed with information single nascar video I have ever seen.
i think thats because we are so used to it the basic info and easy stuff to us we gloss over, he came at it as someone whos also learning and put the training wheels on for others that are in his stage of it
that boy just loves him some racin
Never really appreciated what NASCAR was truly like in America or what it was about until now. Cheers Naska 👊
It truly is incredible to witness in person. From the ovals at Daytona, to the Triangle in the Pocono's, out to the road course in Sonoma or Watkins Glen. Back to the high banking monster in Talladega, to the short track in Bristol Tennessee..., there really is nothing like it anywhere in the world. If you have the chance, head to an event before you leave this world.
Seriously one of the best videos about Nascar on TH-cam right now.
We need to get this video viral. These other non-Americans reacting to nascar channels can’t compare unless they experience ANY race for themselves now like this
Ever….. never seen anything this good about our racing.
Another absolutely great one is EmpLemons "Why there will never ever be another Dale Earnhardt"
As a 20-year fan of US NASCAR, I agree totally. Loved seeing this version of the sport through Alberto's view!
The sound of the full pack on a restart coming up to speed, 40 cars with the hammer down, is the most intense sound there is.
Only thing rivaling it is NHRA Top Fuel. One of the loudest things I have ever heard or felt. You could be 100% deaf and be like WTF was that
@@brinkee7674 And then there are (were?) the jet cars. I had never felt stabbed through the heart by sound until I heard one of those just _warming up_ for its run.
The only thing better is a full field of 410 sprint cars on the throttle. Early double the HP of Daytona spec cars, and under half the weight.
@@backcountryme Well that or a full field of NASCAR Whelen Modified running at New Hampshire or Dover. They are faster than the cup cars and run with restrictor plates. That or Big Block Modifieds running dirt
@@brinkee7674 I’ll still take 410 sprint cars any day. Higher power to weight ratio then any of the cars you mentioned.
As a German NASCAR Fan who has no chance to see a NASCAR Race live a great Video, thank you for that!❤
you can stay at my house m8, i live 30 minutes away from the track
You can come to Hoschersleben 23/24 september for the Euro Nascar Races - I will race there
Never say never. You may be able to one day.
NASCAR has talked about trying European exhibition races in the next handful of years. Don't give up hope!
If you ever want to see Miami-Homestead speedway you let me know. I’d give you a place to sleep and go see the race.
As I die hard NASCAR fan who watches every Sunday you did an AMAZING job capturing what it’s like to experience a race in person great job!
💯

The BEST description of NASCAR ever. My first race was in 1974.
👏Been watching NASCAR and the Daytona 500 for the last 25 years and I’ve learned more and been more entertained by this crazy Italians documentary than I have from any others who have tried the same. Great job👏
Because of this fantastic video, I will start watching NASCAR.
This young man delivered what Mike Joy Darrell Waltrip and all the greats of announcing have never been able to do. I am blown away by his attention to detail and willingness to do the homework. He needs to be part of the race day crew.
As an European, i find racing in ovals actually fun, I'm Nascar fan since 2015
This is a great way to give people outside the US a taste of the sport of NASCAR. I'm 39 and have been a fan since I was 5. I've been to 1/2 a dozen races at Michigan International Speedway and to a qualifying day at Indy for what used to be the Brickyard 400. I've seen a lot of changes, some not well received, but they've been slowly moving back in the right direction recently. I believe those fans of other series that aren't familar or perhaps don't have the context necessary to respect NASCAR could gain a lot from these type sof videos. Thanks for making this!
This is a phenomenal portrayal of what a NASCAR event is like. I haven't been to Daytona, but the experience at a NASCAR race is wildly different than non-fans would think--- and in a good way. I'm glad you had a positive experience because the US has a racing culture every bit as rich as Europe does, but it also operates in a much different way, regardless of whether it's sports cars, NASCAR, or open wheel racing.
I'm 64 and have never been a big NASCAR fan. And here, some guy from Italy, that I don't know, and have never heard of, gave me an education about NASCAR. He made me want to watch it, and I will in the future. Thank you Alberto, Buddy, from Panama City Florida.
29:35 Happy to make a cameo.
But even better video overall! Hope you had fun!
I was looking through the comments to see if anyone else noticed
I noticed some major NASCAR TH-camrs at 29:39
DannyBTalks and
BlackFlagsMatter
His enthusiasm about the campers is hilarious
You did an amazing job documenting this legendary event! Thank you having share this thrilling experience with us. I haven’t lost a beat 😊
Great editing and storytelling!
Thank you for making this video about Nascar, it was quite an eye opener. I especially like that they have only 1 big garage so that other teams can check other teams cars and i love the car scanning laser. F1 need those kind of lasers.
F1 cars arent all the same size and shape like NASCAR, they variate a lot from team to team, so it wouldn't be possible
Despite all the problems and division in the US. We tend to forget that the rest of the world is blown away by our culture and collective love for our country. We take pride in doing things bigger and better than everyone else. And that makes me smile a little.
why is it Americans hate America, but other countries find it fascinating?
@@jabber1990 the division we create within ourselves. the constant inner bickering within our politics, the division between the wealthy and the poor and almost EVERYTHING is being tracked in some way. some of us just want a simpler life with more benefits provided by a stronger government.
@@jabber1990 because a lot of people don’t realize how good they have it here. It’s sad to see people so unpatriotic.
@@jabber1990 It's not really that way but certain people are that way. Problem is certain groups like to emphasize the problems which really only consumes a very some amount of us. Most love our country even with it's problems. We really do things bigger here and others outside of the country have no idea what a true American is all about. They have some image they saw online or TV. Nobody is perfect and trust me we understand that. Problem is that showing problems gets views, showing someone going on about their life does not so many have an image that does not fit except for a very small percent of us.
Now this is about NASCAR and that is not the only spectacle here. We also have the NFL, NBA, MLB, IRL, NCAA and others that do the same thing just as big or close to it damn near every weekend
@@jabber1990 This applies to almost any country. If you told the average German for example that their country is the best one in the world they'd laugh to your face and start listing reasons why it's not. Most people have a laundry list of criticisms/complaints about their government and culture, even ones in first world countries ranked to be the "best in the world". But yes America might be more divided than ever.
I've been to Italy. Venice, Livorno, Pisa, Sicily and finally, Roma. The history in Roma made it one of the most spectacular places I've ever been. I grew up in Florida. I started going to The Daytona races when I was 8 years old. Because of my job, I've made friends with people in Nascar, and they've taken me on the behind the scenes tour you went on. I've been multiple times. I loved seeing your enthusiasm in this video. Watching this thru the eyes of someone seeing the Daytona Nascar experience for the first time, was a chance for us to be reminded of the things we take for granted. And some of those things are what makes America, America...
We must get you to Talladega (my home track). Been going since 1984. Its slightly bigger (in size) than Daytona, but a lot crazier. Watching your video made me proud to be a lifelong NASCAR fan. Hope you will visit more tracks down the road.
I’m a huge fan of NASCAR and this might be one of the best videos ever made on exactly what happens at a NASCAR race weekend. You got everything I can think of that makes the race happen. Great job!!!
I used to be a jackman in both Nascar and the ARCA Series, good to see more people are getting back into stockcar racing
Im a French leaving in europe, going to Daytona seing the daytona 500 race have always being one of my dreams ... This video really make me feel like if I was there , and it looks and sound even better than i was thinking ! Whoa thank you so much.
Welcome to the wonderful world of nascar my friend, we’re so glad to have you
Where’s your PFP from that creature looks familiar
I’m a Daytona employee who lives for these races, and you have me already excited for the next Daytona Speedweeks and Daytona 500!
Came here after seeing the YT Short version and I knew I just had to see the full version. Oh man, was I in for a surprise. This was such a well-edited, professionally produced video! I didn’t fast-forward any part the entire 43 minutes. The editing, the narrative… everything was spot on! I was hooked from beginning to end. This is the way to earn subscribers! Not with gimmicks or rage baits, but with good ol’ fashioned storytelling! Hope to see more of this type of content from your channel!
this was very similar to my experience watching the full 500 (from TV) it was the first time i had watched a full NASCAR race in over 10 years, maybe even ever. it was great! and NASCAR has quickly became my favorite sport ever and one of my favorite things of all time. and this video basically expresses exactly what i felt when the race went on.
I'm really glad that people like you are showing how difficult Nascar actually is. Most people don't understand that and they just put stereotypes on the sport. Thank you
As a fan i love this video, not only did you talk about the history of the sport and race but also go in depth on whets going in the weekend
One of the best videos you made so far
Really managed to capture the excitement of the event!!!
Thanks! It was truly awesome
I’m a diehard nascar fan and tries to watch every race and I thought it was cool. And for the casual fans it’s a really detailed video and explanation about how the Daytona 500 works
I live near Daytona in Orlando,Florida and have been to the races. Your video is the best representation and story about Daytona 500 I have ever seen. What an AMAZING video! You really nailed it. As you have witnessed , NASCAR is very professional from drivers down to event employees. 200,000 visitors and everything organized and running smoothly. You captured it all.
Thank you
F1 could learn SO much from NASCAR when it comes to fan interactions. It's really quite sad because F1 is so interesting as a sport but FOM and Liberty Media make it incredibly INaccessible to fans, whereas NASCAR realized long ago that the best way to promote the races is to let the fans get as close as possible to the action, both physically and virtually.
I’m 59, a hardcore mortorsports fan, from NASCAR to F1 and I gotta tell ya this was one of the best videos I’ve ever seen covering any Motorsport at anytime. Loved this, you did well.
What a great video!!’ Never took a look at NASCAR but you covered it very well and showed all the different sides so well. Unbelievable fan engagement in nascar. The fans can even walk the track and get close to the drivers and buy a ticket that puts you beside the mechanics.
The engagement is honestly nuts. I went to Atlanta motor speedway last year and on the way to my seats just walked right past Richard Petty, the all time highest winner and legend of the sport (200 wins), and who "the king" in Cars was based off of. 7 time champ, just right there. I waved and said hi and he waved back.
Thank you Alberto! So nice to have insight of Daytona 500 from European perspective, keep it going!😎 Greetings from Finland! 🏁
You should go to the Indy 500 and then you’d get to interview Conor Daly all over again 😂
Great videos Alberto!
It doesn't matter if it's the more expensive things or common, I enjoy seeing the best of their craft work the magic.
So cool! I love this sport so much and I’m thrilled that you were able to enjoy it!
After this experience I got incredibly captured!
In 2012 my dad and I went to Daytona 500. Sunday was rained out, so we came back on Monday. That was the race where Juan Pablo Montoya crashed into a jet dryer and had a big fire. I was on the back stretch where it happened. Im glad you got to experience that.
We were in the stands for the start of that race, but had to leave the next morning to catch our flight with the delay. Watched the start at the airport. Landed in Detroit three hours later and Montoya had just hit the dryer. Drove two hour home and watched the end of the race! Weird.
I'm American and I had no idea Daytona was this much of a spectacle! Fascinating!
By far the best nascar video I’ve ever seen!
so what im getting is Alberto is gonna try and qualify next year on the 500!! fingers Crossed.
Excellent job doing the video
I've been going to both Daytona races each year since 1965, missing only a couple of races when i was in Vietnam. My Son is on the #48 Chevrolet Team for Hendrick Motorsports
Very cool 😎 👌, I wish you and your boy the best of year's together, I love watching 👀 my children and grandchild attain success!..from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 👋🤠
Alex Bowman?
Man, if THIS left you speechless, the 90s era woulda dropped you dead.
90s were amazing, but you shouldn't stop supporting Nascar just because you feel like "your era" is over. I started watching in 79 and I felt the same when restrictor plates were introduced. But I kept supporting the sport because it is made up of good people with good intentions!
It’s crazy seeing the cup garage looks with all the cup stuff in it vs when I raced the 14 hour race at the 1st of this month
Awesome video! Glad you loved the experience! I've never been to Daytona but maybe someday!
Thank you! You must go once in your life 😃
Oh dude the radio at the race is a must. You said it was quite boring well that’s how you make it much more fun the entire race because you can also listen to the radio broadcast the headphones also help with the noise
So yes once you have that radio it really isn’t ever boring cause you can really follow it and the mrn radio guys are very good
As a person who is apart of a family of nascar fans including myself, I want to thank you for making this video for people who are looking at this sport from the outside in. Us, the Nascar fans are extremely passionate for our favorite drivers. For a lot of us going to see these races is a family tradition, or even a gathering of friends who haven't seen in awhile. Everyone no matter where they are from, or their skin color everyone is welcomed here's. It is a complete other culture that you see at theses events. Even though we as fans don't know each other but when we all come together to watch nascar in person we are a family. I have personally have gone to three nascar races and I can genuinely tell anyone that on the day of the race I am at my most happiness tailgating and waiting to be let into the grandstands. If you do decide to come see another race here in America I suggest going to these two races.
1. Bristol. Specifically the Bristol night race. The night race is one of the only two races scheduled in nascar that happens at night. The race track is one of the oldest tracks that nascar still races on. It is known for the crashes, the drama, and the fights that happen there.
2. The Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte motor speedway. This race other race on nascar that happens at night. This race is also the longest race that happens in nascar. It is 600 miles and 400 laps. The length for Europeans who see this comment is 2.5 km. This race is the only one that has four stages. Each stage is 100 hundred laps. This race happens in memorial day weekend for America and lines up with the Monaco Grand Prix, and for F1 The Indy 500. Even the race happens on Sunday, the actual partying starts a week before with the all star race. The all star is a race that happens always on the weekend before memorial day weekend. This specific race is also a night race and isn't about getting competition point, its more about bragging rights and 1 million dollars. The all star race events begins in the evening at 6pm where the first race happens. That race is the all star opening which is for some the others driver is their last chance to qualify for the main race. The main all star race consists of 21 drivers who are seen as the best in nascar. The atmosphere during this race is different from any other race parties held by nascar.
As someone who grew up watching some Nascar here and there and recently got back into it, I love this documentary. This shows what Nascar is like, even comparing it to other racing styles, allowing people to understand differences between them. Nascar is also something that Americans can unite over and love in general because it doesn't matter who you root for, in the end, everyone is a winner because they all did their best.
Lifelong NASCAR fan here, great video and representation of the sport. You just did a better job selling the experience of a race weekend better than NASCAR does most days. 😆
see this is the type of car culture and enthusiast i like. instead of just going along with the norm of hating on nascar he took the time to dive deep into it all and was suprised from what he learned. i will say i never was into nascar but i also had no idea how deep it went. i love that we can come together all enjoy motor sports. at the end of the day we all are here because we love cars everyone has different preferences but we all can sit down and just kick it talking passionately about we love.
Nothing will suck you into it more than being there in person at a race. Completely different and somethng I recommend anyone do at least once.
Hey its cool to see a Europeans view on a motorsport hes a part of definitely subscribed because thats so much detail in a video covering an entire weekend of racing
The passion with which you describe everything is amazing! Not a Nascar fan but this has made attending the Daytona 500 another bullet on my bucket list. How does this video not have like 500k views at this point. TH-cam algorithm do your thing!
I was at the Daytona 500 this year. Got to be right next to the stage during driver introductions.
Amazing track amazing fans amazing times. Welcome to nascar. Amazing sport.
It makes me really proud to be an American when millions of us all stop and hold our hands over our hearts and salutes
Glad you enjoyed it!!! Welcome to the love of the land of the free.
The idea of NASCAR and stock car racing in general was invented in North Carolina from moonshiners running from the law but saw its rise to fame after the races in Daytona. Thanks for the in-depth review of NASCAR from a outsiders perspective.
As an American who loves f1 and doesn’t watch nascar I always knew that going in an oval wasn’t as easy as it looks on tv but I had no idea that for the drivers it a terrifying experience just being on the track alone. I had no idea about all this depth in nascar and maybe I might try it outs.
I've never been to the Daytona 500, but I watch it almost every year and I have been to America's (and the world's) other biggest race, the Indianapolis 500. 300,000 people in and around another enormous superspeedway, similar or even higher levels of pomp and festivity. I've always wanted to go to the Daytona 500 as well, and if you ever get the chance you should see the Indy 500 too.
dale earnhardt sr was one of the most aggressive drivers but one of the most kind hearted men
he won the week after aryton senna died and was visibly shaken in the post race interview and said "i would've placed second inn an instant if it would bring him back"
Great video! I was at this race myself, my first ever NASCAR race. and I totally understand what you mean by the noise. You feel it in your core, it vibrates your soul and gets you emotional. I can’t describe it any better
I'm so glad you loved your experience here in our country, F1 may not be my favorite but I do actually some what enjoy it but yes nascar is so so SO much more than just a left turn only kind of race. KEEP IT UP MAN hopefully you come back for some more races 😎💯
Rain delays are funny, I remember they had one team, (interviewer, cameraman, soundman) roaming among the coaches (RVs) asking random questions of anybody who would stand still to be asked, just to fill time. These coaches are where the drivers were waiting it out. Driver Michael Waltrip invited the wandering band inside out of the rain, let them sit down and get comfy, then took the interviewer's headset and microphone, and started to interview the interviewer, reversing the roles. NASCAR drivers are usually among the most accessible athletes around, they talk to people a lot, media and fans alike, but when there's nothing to do, they get bored like anybody else.
How come a Italian guy make the best documentary of NASCAR that ive ever seen?! 🎉 truly a marvel, so mu h that i have learned.
I just saw my first NASCAR race at Charlotte. Unbelievable!! The visceral feeling in my body was incredible. I am now a fan!!! I wish I'd seen this video before the race. God Bless NASCAR!!
I've been a huge NASCAR fan for 4 years. This reminded me of how crazy NASCAR things are if you don't usually watch. What a fantastic video!
I've been racing NASCAR in video games, it's fascinated me. Driving at up to 200mph while your opponents are around only inches away from you, is no easy task.
Thanks for making this wonderful video. I really enjoyed it. It reminds me of why I loved NASCAR.
I was really struck by your reaction to the pre-race rituals, especially the national anthem and the flyover. As an American, I never realized that other countries don't have that. The fact that the national anthem is played at every sporting event from the high school level up really serves to remind us where we came from. Every stops and listens, and for that moment everyone is together. Its something really special.
Glad you had gone to check it out. When I lived in Florida (16 years), Daytona was a destination in February and July for NASCAR racing. Nothing like it and nothing like Daytona.
This was so well produced I am baffled. I've always watched NASCAR try to get explained to those who aren't familiar with it and it just never gets communicated right. This. This right here. Is now the video I will tell people to watch. You did a fantastic job, thank you for this!
I really appreciate this video, you made me smile. Id go to Daytona again and explain even more to you
Rain tires are used in NASCAR for some short tracks and for road and street races. Chicago Street race is an excellent example.
I've been a NASCAR fan for over 40 years. You, sir, put on a very detailed, informative show. I knew about everything you covered, but seeing you present it, from your perspective, was very entertaining.
I have been a Nascar fan for 28 years just curious who's ur favorite driver in the 40 years u have been a fan
Bro…you did a great job…I hope you get an ambassordship with nascar..you represented your experience well…it’s not F1..but it’s our own thing…thanks for being here
28:20 seeing that guy rocking the Cannibal Corpse shirt going nuts was awesome lol
AMAZING!....I love that not only you're a very good driver, but your love for racing and what it means to you and others is captured perfectly in this video. Great job and please keep being you.
This channel is so underrated, only 30K views?! This video is amazing Alberto!
Thank you buddy! :D
I live in Florida and never been to a Nascar race. but this is touching from an outsiders perspective.
I've been a Nascar fan for 22 years and you did a fantastic job explaining the sport and how it works. Great video and glad you had fun!!👍🏻
I used to be part of the crowd thinking that Nascar was so easy because its just turning left. Then I did research and started to see how tough it really was. the strategy for tires and the drafting as well as the amount of looseness each driver wants really allowed me to gain respect and enjoy the sport. It is just a different kind of racing that is just as tough as anything else.
I was actually at this race.
Up on the lowest end of the stands going into turn 1.
Was a lot of fun as well.
I live deep in NASCAR country right outside of Charlotte, NC and this is the best NASCAR content I've seen from any channel
Having just started getting into the Whelen Euro Series and hearing you say that you're a driver for it, you've got a new fan. Great video
I was at the Coke Zero 400 one year and it got rain delayed for HOURS. The drivers were so cool. Joey Logano walked through the stands and just talked with fans. He was so humble and funny.
Fun fact: Before NASCAR, Daytona Beach was where people would go to set land speed records. So the beach was actually legendary in the motorsports world even before NASCAR came along
I am truly amazed and envious of the pageantry you were able to capture and decipher for the world to see! I knew everything you covered beforehand, but the joy it brought to you to experience something with such raw excitement made me feel like I was learning something new with you. There are so many tracks in NASCAR with rich history and I hope you have many more opportunities to get to other NASCAR races! Incredible video!!
Wow this is the best video I’ve ever seen breaking down the expierence going to NASCAR. Thanks for highlighting the sport and having an open mind!
This is a great video. I was there this year as well. It's awesome seeing it through the eyes of someone who isn't used to it and is genuinely intrigued and interested in everything they're seeing. Thank you for the great watch
I’m sure lots of people mentioned it, but the trucks are called the Craftsman truck series again.
Besides that, this was awesome! I went to Daytona for a tour last year. Hoping to see a race there one day.
Im from Daytona, so cool to see this. Makes me want to travel to the Nurburgring.
Really neat seeing an outsider's perspective on a Daytona race weekend. I'm an American marveling at how awesome Formula 1 is but probably don't appreciate what we've got here as much as I should, honestly. Motorsport is this huge tapestry of so many different patches and it's all glorious.
I'm so glad you got the chance to go! NASCAR is my favorite sport and there is so much more to it than going around in circles like everyone says.
We need the “Beef. It’s what’s for dinner Miami Grand Prix” now
The way that he interviewed a #47 member and the 47 still won is bonkers Love from Atl ,Ga
My brother and I met Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. here in Las Vegas last year. I happen to work for Kroger. We got a picture standing with him by his car pretty cool. Nice guy! He asked who my brother bought his candy for it was around Halloween time. I thought that was sweet. 🇺🇸🏁
You should really do one of these for NHRA Drag Racing as well. It is another completely different experience of horsepower. I think you would love it.
