When it says at 2:06 that circuits are accurate up to 1cm due to laserscanning while the F1 game itself have none of this just make things worst for using the F1 game as example. But if GTS can make someone go to real sport so can the F1 game, both are simcade (dont mean you can not learn anything with it, it just will be far from the top simulators).
@@IronwillNeo Also, no F1 team will share their telemetry data with a 3rd party. You can't accurately simulate f1 cars because there is no data available.
@@hileutewie it could be iracing, AC, ACC, rF, rF2, AMS1, AMS2, RR, KartKraft ... hell, I would say even Project CARS 2 would be taken more seriously than a Codies F1 game for that matter as it can be a "not high tier" simulation on a laserscanned track with the right car, but slapping "simulator" and using GTS and F1 games as examples just dont feel right.
i think max is right on point there. yes they can get really fast, but they will need that track time to get ''fear of life'' that does not mean they need to be scared, but they need to experience what an actual car can do to you
Pedals in F1 are no joke. In a sim pedals are soft. In an actual F1 they are very hard. 40% brake pressure is hard to achieve from an average person. Also 5g+ for 2 hrs straight, Igor would pass out 😂
Really enjoyed making this video! Learnt so much from Igor and Max about the benefits of simulators. I'm keen to hear what you think after watching it.. Could sim racing make future F1 champs? 😊
Igor Fraga beat F2 driver Liam Lawson and now F1 driver Yuki Tsunoda with the same car, and the another brazilian F2 driver Guilherme Samaia in the brazilian Formula 3, won the 2017 championship, so, Fraga prove the simrace can make a champion, maybe soon in the formula 1, its a question of the time. Igor Fraga deserve the chance to test with the Red Bull formula 1 simulator.
Jann Mardenborough did well in Junior Formula as well. He struggle inn his first season but he did place 2nd in his later season which is not bad but unfortunately money block his path to get his chance to compete more and eventually made to f1 like many other good driver
the Codemasters F1 *games* are NOT simulators, they're arcade games, they have nothing to do with proper consumer SIMULATORS like iRacing, rFactor 2 etc
@@tiagoarsilva1 yeah well, maybe yuki improved since then?.....plus half the F1 grid? HAHAHAHAHA , Mazepin & latifi...sure but the rest? not even close
Nissan GT Academy has proved sim racers with some on track training / experience can outdrive other racers who came up through formula's and have more on track experience.
Igor Fraga is the future, he has already proved to be the best in the virtual world, in fact he only needs a team like RED BULL and he will surely be champion; he proved it by being Gran Turismo Sport world champion and Toyota Racing Series champion last year, he has everything to make history, he just needs someone who believes, trusts and invests in his work, because that boy is pure talent!
@@arthusmarande8885 What a silly question, just use your head a little to know that the Charouz Racing System team was very weak, he showed what he can do with a competitive car in the Toyota Racing Series championship.
@@TeoJunHao all equal, but teams have diffrent amount of money and facilities, allowing some to create setups that are faster, notice you still have backmarkers in f2/f3
The cars aren't real, but the racing is real. Sim racing absolutely has it's place and there really isn't much denying that. You made all the high points with this video. I'll probably never have enough money to sit in a F1 car or GT car, but I can pay a small fee and do it virtually and have a lot of fun doing it.
Yes!! We all know how talented and dedicated Igor Fraga is as well as we have seen what he can do with a real and competitive car. He proved to be in the same level as top drivers like Lawson and Tsunoda when they where teammates. He deserves all the support to keep showing his potential
As someone that does both, i understand that simracing can get you to learn the basics but one thing you cant do in a sim compare to a kart is have fear, the physical aspect (batteling g-force, leg and arm strength) aswell as well as the sensations.
Parabéns Red Bull pelo vídeo, destacando um assunto interessante. Um piloto virtual pode ser um futuro campeão de F1? Na minha opinião pode, principalmente se você for o brasileiro Igor Fraga, Campeão Mundial do Gran Turismo - virtual - e vencedor do Campeonato Toyota Racing Series realizado na Nova Zelândia em 2020 no mundo real.
Your body doesn't feel the G-Forces, you don't have emotions of crashing or messing up involved, you don't have the pressure of the whole team on your shoulders, you don't have to worry about your tyres, you don't need to communicate with your race engineer, you don't feel heat or require to be physically fit, you don't have to worry that if you mess this season up you could potentially lose the chance to drive next season. How can you even compare the two!
That's why sim racing is good for learning the technical side of driving and racing but you still need a lot of real life experience in order to be good outside of the sim.
IGOR today is undoubtedly the best virtual driver in the world and an excellent real driver, for sure he has everything to enter Formula 1. Strength IGOR !!!! We are with you !!! IGOR hoje é sem dúvida o melhor piloto virtual do mundo e um excelente piloto real, com certeza tem tudo para entrar na Fórmula 1. Força IGOR!!!! Estamos com você!!!
Congratulations Red Bull for the video, highlighting an interesting subject. Can a virtual driver be a future F1 champion? In my opinion can, especially if you are the Brazilian Igor Fraga, Gran Turismo World Champion - virtual - and winner of the Toyota Racing Series Championship held in New Zealand in 2020 real world.
Lucas ordoñez is a Spanish motorsport driver, who entered the world of professional competition by winning a competition in the Gran Turismo video game for the PlayStation 3. In 2011 he and his team managed to be second in the LMP2 class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans 2011 , and champions of the Intercontinental Cup Le Mans. The Spaniard was champion of the Pro-Am class of the Blancpain Endurance Series 2013.
I think pro driver pride make they say it would very hard almost impossible for a sim driver to be successful irl but James Baldwin already proved it is possible and he is not even the best out there, I definitely think that f1 team will start to turn to sim racer to find future talent and run them in Junior series if trial like Igor Fraga are successful
On a different note, years ago I used to race karts but eventually life got in the way, affordability was out of the window and being a dad of 4 and 31 years old my opportunity has been and gone, however sim racing is an amazing way of continuing what I love to do, my set up only cost around £300 but the hours of fun it provides are invaluable... And now my kids are getting involved as well... Great fun all round
@@tbz1551 No I got it.... You were playing on the words so something in me just had to nitpick your nitpick by being literal. It kinda happens sometimes. Maybe I should actually say hi or something first.... Hahahaha
Before I went for my Private Pilot License, I had made thousands of hours in simulators. You do get a lot of experience in procedure, radio communication and the thing you missing at home is the feeling of speed, the smells in the cockpit, the subtle vibrations on everything in your cockpit. I don't think simulators are a replacement of karts, but I think they are a rather good addition to the training mix...
I think that simracing can, with a proper investment of course, replace karting. You can't just expect to replace karting with a low budget on simracing... Anyway, if there's someone who can make from simracing to F1, is Igor. He does have a lot of real driving experience, but simracing is a huge part of his career and he proved where this combination can take a racing driver.
I am a sim racer and someone who has a famous FFB tweak for Project CARS 2, and work for that with professional racing drivers as a hobby of mine. Some might recognize the avatar I am using on TH-cam. Now, my opinion is that yes it can be done BUT... there is always a but... the sim racer has to do a few things. 1. Dedicate himself to his goal as any driver does from a young age. This includes parental support, financially and mentally. 2. The driver needs to train from a young age. This by for one a healthy lifestyle by eating and drinking properly, sleeping properly. But also train (workout) with the same regime as an F1 driver but maybe less intense unless they find it pleasant to do. Never discourage those who like to do what they do. 3. As Max says, you need some experience with real life G-Forces and general seat of pants feel. You need to feel the road through your butt and back, as well as feel the strain on your organ of balance. Not to mention the physical strain on your body and where you might need more focus in regards to workouts. But most of all... even though physics is improving, there are still differences. So you need to get confident with a real car, and know how to translate your sim racing experience. So get into a rental kart maybe once a month for a heat or two. The faster the rental the better. Also go and do some ice Karting to learn how to slip and slide in real life, because differing track conditions aren't done in all Sims or done well enough. Go drive karts in the rain too, etc. So yes, it can be done but you need... health, real experience and dedication from a young age. Last but not least. You need to find a way to get recognized by the racing teams. Cause without that your hard work will be for naught.
Igor Fraga é a melhor promessa do Brasil para a Fórmula 1. Samurai Brasileiro!!!! 🏁🏁🏁 Igor Fraga is Brazil's best promise for F1. Brazilian Samurai !!!! 🏁🏁🏁
I started with sim racing but after 4 years made the swith to a KZ kart and after 9 months in Formula 5 and I was able to replicate almost 60% of what i learned in the 4 years of sim, that's impressive but sim doesn't give you balls to drive a real formula. Not every sim racer can make 200kph corners in reality.
Concordo com o Nelson, de talento puro ele é o melhor. Tem outros pilotos com mais chances, por causa de dinheiro, prestigio ou até mesmo o 'time' que deu certo a eles. Veremos. Fraga com carro competitivo tem o necessário para mostrar o talento dele
@@negocioslendarios Reginaldo leme é bacana, mas ele é mais um museu do que um comentarista. Se for pergunta a historia do lugar e os restaurantes ele manja tudo. Mas de formula 1 atual e o que está acontecendo na corrida, ai ele não se destaca.
Drugovich, Collet, Petecof, Pietro, Enzo, até o Samaia tem fisicamente mais chances de estar futuramente na formula 1 do que o Igor Fraga. Até o presente momento a Red Bull retirou dele todas as chances que tinha imputado a Ele, tirou ele da Hitech na FIA F3, não deu nenhum carro rla ele em categoria nenhuma e já estamos nos 50 do segundo tempo. Então não, Igor Fraga não é o brasileiro mais próximo da Formula 1, na verdade ele só é o menino propaganda pra convencer um monte de gente a comprar itens e jogos de videogame achando que um dia se tornarão pilotos de sofá, digo pilotos de qualquer coisa.
I once read that a guy hit some black ice while driving and his car spun. But he instantly knew what to do because he did sim racing. He said sim racing saved his life
Here is your answer. Fraga beat (finished ahead on a championship) this list of drivers as a teammate, with similar equipment or with an INFERIOR car. Those drivers already have a seat for 2021: - Yuki Tsunoda (F1) - Lian Lawson (F2) - David Schumacher (F3) - Caio Collet (F3) - Olli Caldwell (F3) - Roman Stanek (F3) - Jack Doohan (F3) You can also quote Frederik Vesti (F3) since Fraga beat him several times on the FREC with a modest DR Formula, while Vesti was driving a superior Prema.
What a lot of BS - seriously, you guys perhaps forgot Jann Mandenborough or Lucas Ordonez (he won le mans in an lmp2). Obviously, it takes time to get used to the g forces, but essentially its more difficult to train mentally than physically. And f1 2020 is not a sim, try to go same f1 hybrid in rf2 with default setup - good luck
Congratulations my dear Igor Fraga. You are also a future champion on the F1 tracks. God always accompany you to protect you. Thank you for being here!!🙏💖👏👏👏👏
Well.... Igor is good, but he is not a Verstappen or Leclerc. He is also only competing in a regional F3-championship where he does well but nothing phenomenal... Yet.
@@Roguescienceguy Well I guess you haven´t seen his entire career. He has already 35 Points to the FIA F1 License. He Won the Brazilian F3 championship. He got 2nd at the FIA NACAM F4 even though he could not race the entire championship. He got 4th place at the USF2000 championship with an inferior car and a very low budget. He Was 3rd on the F3 European/Regional when he won a few races even though he had an inferior car he beat the so powerful Prema Racing. He is the 2020 F3 TRS FIA Champion. So, I believe he just needs a good car to reach the results he is capable of.
RedBull channel....show F1 game and Max Verstappen(he say F1 game is sh*t, nothing to common with real cars and don't run in F1 Virtual Grand Prix). And nothing to say/show about REAL simulators like iRacing, rF2 where a lot IRL pilot's drive.
Nope... you dont get the feel from the sim. I have both experience with carts and sim racing and the biggest thing missing in sim racing is the feel in you body when you loose grip, gain grip and you can feel the things happening under neath you.
I would guess so. The current gen of Simrace setup and games are so detailed of the real world that you can train a lot of youngsters. Then you can choose the yearly champions to draft into the lower level of F3s. I would say it exposes a lot of hidden talents who otherwise would not have been spotted as not everyone can have a car to race.
I feel like Jarno Opmeer could make it into f1 because he actually competed in formula renault, and with that experience plus being the quickest sim driver at the moment, he could do it
If you have the talent and you try Sim racing then you can become someone that can race in real life very competitive no matter what the category is. Sim racing gives you the techniques of how to race properly. Of course with some real driving time to merge both worlds.
I think its very likely a "SIM Driver" will successfully transition into a very competitive "F1 Driver" sooner then we realize..!!! 🤔💯👍Every new year(version) of SIMULATION development closes the gap on REALISTIC racing..!!! (ACC/iRacing/rF2) 😉💯😎
I wouldn't say that only training or driving in the simulator makes you a future champion, but I would say its part of the same talent and the very best simracers can also be very fast in a real race car
Sim racing can open the door for so many new prospects that cant afford cart racing or in coutries where it isnt a viable option. I hope this becomes more mainstream
Max is right... I'm just now getting into sim racing coming out of the street racing world just as a fun weekend hobby... But having all the sensation of going 140+ mph in a actual car makes u very aware of ur mortality. Where as sim racing u can take more chances because it's no real danger.
Any driver that came up thru karting is going to have a hard time admitting that simulation is the future. I think we are seeing it already, but in the future I believe that will be how all the professional drivers get there start. Simulation is only going to get more realistic.
I think it's possible, but nothing beats driving a real car. No matter how accurate sim racing equipment gets, you can't get past the bit Max said about feeling the car, the speed, etc. Not straight from a sim to Formula 1, but certainly feeder series. Still need a ton of cash unfortunately. Come to think of it, why doesn't Formula one as a whole invest in some kind of scholarship for talented drivers who can't make it higher up because of the lack of funding? all that talk about diversity, equality and inclusion, surely doesn't extend only to those people with enough money to make it?

@@negocioslendarios Reginaldo leme é bacana, mas ele é mais um museu do que um comentarista. Se for pergunta a historia do lugar e os restaurantes ele manja tudo. Mas de formula 1 atual e o que está acontecendo na corrida, ai ele não se destaca.
Drugovich, Collet, Petecof, Pietro, Enzo, até o Samaia tem fisicamente mais chances de estar futuramente na formula 1 do que o Igor Fraga.
Até o presente momento a Red Bull retirou dele todas as chances que tinha imputado a Ele, tirou ele da Hitech na FIA F3, não deu nenhum carro rla ele em categoria nenhuma e já estamos nos 50 do segundo tempo.
Então não, Igor Fraga não é o brasileiro mais próximo da Formula 1, na verdade ele só é o menino propaganda pra convencer um monte de gente a comprar itens e jogos de videogame achando que um dia se tornarão pilotos de sofá, digo pilotos de qualquer coisa.
Hey.. tell us which F2 Team Igor Fraga will race... he deserves all the efforts to make him a F1 driver.
All f2 seat are taken, and Igor flaga may not continue f3 according to news report
He didnt show anything in f3 last year
Go Fraga
I once read that a guy hit some black ice while driving and his car spun. But he instantly knew what to do because he did sim racing. He said sim racing saved his life
Vim pelo 1gor Fraga 😎✌
Here is your answer. Fraga beat (finished ahead on a championship) this list of drivers as a teammate, with similar equipment or with an INFERIOR car. Those drivers already have a seat for 2021:
- Yuki Tsunoda (F1)
- Lian Lawson (F2)
- David Schumacher (F3)
- Caio Collet (F3)
- Olli Caldwell (F3)
- Roman Stanek (F3)
- Jack Doohan (F3)
You can also quote Frederik Vesti (F3) since Fraga beat him several times on the FREC with a modest DR Formula, while Vesti was driving a superior Prema.
@Tiago Assunção On point ;)
I can see eventually VR mixed with Sim mixed with more realistic feedback controls really taking things to the next level.
Igor fraga the best
The other way around happened to jarno opmeer.. he was in F3 but cause of no budget he changed to sim racing and now dominates F1 esports
My guy Igor ❤️
What a lot of BS - seriously, you guys perhaps forgot Jann Mandenborough or Lucas Ordonez (he won le mans in an lmp2). Obviously, it takes time to get used to the g forces, but essentially its more difficult to train mentally than physically. And f1 2020 is not a sim, try to go same f1 hybrid in rf2 with default setup - good luck
Now here when Cem Bolukbasi has earned an F2 seat 🤯
Congratulations my dear Igor Fraga. You are also a future champion on the F1 tracks. God always accompany you to protect you. Thank you for being here!!🙏💖👏👏👏👏
Igor Fraga is the future of motorsport!
Well.... Igor is good, but he is not a Verstappen or Leclerc. He is also only competing in a regional F3-championship where he does well but nothing phenomenal... Yet.
@@Roguescienceguy Well I guess you haven´t seen his entire career.
He has already 35 Points to the FIA F1 License.
He Won the Brazilian F3 championship.
He got 2nd at the FIA NACAM F4 even though he could not race the entire championship.
He got 4th place at the USF2000 championship with an inferior car and a very low budget.
He Was 3rd on the F3 European/Regional when he won a few races even though he had an inferior car he beat the so powerful Prema Racing.
He is the 2020 F3 TRS FIA Champion.
So, I believe he just needs a good car to reach the results he is capable of.
@@well26brasil fair enough. I hope he comes through in the FIA F3-championship. Talented enough for F3, now let's hope he goes all the way
RedBull channel....show F1 game and Max Verstappen(he say F1 game is sh*t, nothing to common with real cars and don't run in F1 Virtual Grand Prix).
And nothing to say/show about REAL simulators like iRacing, rF2 where a lot IRL pilot's drive.
Give Igor Fraga tools, he will certainly do the best with them!
Nice video, I think it can happen🙋♂️
Nope... you dont get the feel from the sim. I have both experience with carts and sim racing and the biggest thing missing in sim racing is the feel in you body when you loose grip, gain grip and you can feel the things happening under neath you.
I would guess so. The current gen of Simrace setup and games are so detailed of the real world that you can train a lot of youngsters. Then you can choose the yearly champions to draft into the lower level of F3s. I would say it exposes a lot of hidden talents who otherwise would not have been spotted as not everyone can have a car to race.
I feel like Jarno Opmeer could make it into f1 because he actually competed in formula renault, and with that experience plus being the quickest sim driver at the moment, he could do it
Max has a point at about 6:50
It cant replace it fully. Here's why.
Sim : Send it turn 1
IRL: Don't be Kvyat
Igor Fraga is really very talent. Please Red Bull, keep suporting this guy, he is fast!
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

If you have the talent and you try Sim racing then you can become someone that can race in real life very competitive no matter what the category is. Sim racing gives you the techniques of how to race properly. Of course with some real driving time to merge both worlds.
Igor fraga na f1
I think its very likely a "SIM Driver" will successfully transition into a very competitive "F1 Driver" sooner then we realize..!!! 🤔💯👍Every new year(version) of SIMULATION development closes the gap on REALISTIC racing..!!! (ACC/iRacing/rF2) 😉💯😎
people forget G-force! huge impact that can’t be teached in sim racing
Noone says sim racing is 100% the same as real racing.
I wouldn't say that only training or driving in the simulator makes you a future champion, but I would say its part of the same talent and the very best simracers can also be very fast in a real race car
Sim racing can open the door for so many new prospects that cant afford cart racing or in coutries where it isnt a viable option. I hope this becomes more mainstream
Igor returns to RBR junior academy?
I didn't understand, he left of rbb
Igor Fraga is Brazil!!!!!!!!!!! Let's go Igor
Pls red bull ❤❤❤❤
Max is right... I'm just now getting into sim racing coming out of the street racing world just as a fun weekend hobby... But having all the sensation of going 140+ mph in a actual car makes u very aware of ur mortality. Where as sim racing u can take more chances because it's no real danger.
Cem Bolükbaşı made the same ge raced in gt4 and f3 asia from f1 e sports
Jimmy Broadbent has gone from sim to racing for praga so it is starting to happen even if not F1 yet but there is a possibility of it in future
Really liked the video. I follow Alex on his personal youtube channel where he talks about video gear. It was a pleasant surprise to see him here too.
Any driver that came up thru karting is going to have a hard time admitting that simulation is the future. I think we are seeing it already, but in the future I believe that will be how all the professional drivers get there start. Simulation is only going to get more realistic.
🇧🇷
Yes, he can!
excellent driver, I can't wait to see him in F1
I think it's possible, but nothing beats driving a real car. No matter how accurate sim racing equipment gets, you can't get past the bit Max said about feeling the car, the speed, etc.
Not straight from a sim to Formula 1, but certainly feeder series.
Still need a ton of cash unfortunately.
Come to think of it, why doesn't Formula one as a whole invest in some kind of scholarship for talented drivers who can't make it higher up because of the lack of funding? all that talk about diversity, equality and inclusion, surely doesn't extend only to those people with enough money to make it?
Fantástico Igor!!!
Seeing and reviewing a green and yellow winner is always great, but with Igor it’s fantastic!
Igor Franga going above and beyond!!!!! Go Igor!!!!!
Biggest problem is that hardly anyone plays them other than Gran Turismo and iRacing. Very hard to cultivate a competitive scene in that case.
