Hitting the reverse gear 247 times just to make a 3 point turn with that much space is INSANE. Idk how thats even possible without having some sort of mental handicap.
yeh even a tenth of that value is pretty much unheard of. Most people do it with one reverse, maybe 2-4 if there isn't much manuvering space and you have to inch the car step by step to face the correct direction. I can't remember having to engage reverse more than 4 times to turn around my car. Not sure how racing car wheel works when it's stationary like that tho.
Recently Somalia entered a woman in the World University Games in China who finished 10 seconds behind the winner in the 100m dash. Yes, you read that right - 10 seconds in the 100m dash, a race where the winner crossed the finish line in about 10 seconds. It turned out that Somalia's President of Athletics Federation sent her niece to race for Somalia. It not only embarrassed Somalia but cost the President of the Federation her job after it was discovered that the woman who raced had never competed in a race in her life. So yeah, money, fame, power and political status can buy people a place in sports where they should never be.

I have no idea why parents push their kids out of karting into single seaters so soon. Karts are where you can really push and get used to feeling tire grip at its limit with little consequences. It’s also where you’re going to have the most competition with equal and better drivers. Moving to single seaters too soon will stunt your growth as a driver.
Karts are great but Karts are also driven differently to cars. For example, physically leaning to the outside while rounding the corner is a technique that only applies to karting but is essential to be competitive. Fixed axel karts with no suspension will require different driving techniques than all other racing car series.
@@deanjdk True but one year of karts before single seaters is way too soon in my opinion. I feel like you should stay in karts for at least 5 years to fine tune your seat of the pants feel for tire grip. That feel is everything in racing, after you get that you can adapt to different vehicles and learn how to pilot those. But if you aren’t comfortable at and exceeding the limits in a kart where the speeds are slow, you are going to be overly timid in a car and slow down your development as a driver. Exceeding tire grip in a car can be a huge disaster financially and physically, in a kart you can do it comfortably and not worry about endangering your whole season financially or get hurt.
@@maxcalder1010 5 years developing skill in a different direction than the one required for single seaters. 5 years of muscle memory playing the cello when ultimately, you're in a guitar playing competition, will it help? Sure, but better than actual practise in a single seater, definitely not. Karts handle much too differently (as great as they are).
@@rileyh4169 I'm not arguing against karts, I think they're great and definitely a big help but ultimately, they handle completely differently than a car with suspension and a non solid rear axel. A kid developing in a kart is doing so a bit differently than the same kid in a car. Competitive karting is also arguably more expensive than clubman racing. Start in karts, get them into cars if/when they're ready after a year or 2 or 3.
14:28 The Sparco sponsorship branded right above the front windshield of the ride shown for his '24 bid is appropriate. "If Sparco's good enough for Mahaveer, it's good enough for you!"
That's pretty much it. Motorsports is expensive and not every skilled driver has a generous sponsor package that they bring along with them. There are a lot of very rich wannabes out there though, and sometimes a team just has to burn a season to take their money and let them have their fun.
Fun fact...Narain Karthikeyan was the NASCAR Truck Series most popular driver in 2010...then after 5 years came back to F1 driving for Hispania Racing Team.
I've recently learning about Danica, (Which yes she raced in a different Category) but.... this dude is much worse, and deserves the worst driver award (imo and the video also shows many examples lol) They should bring back "Canadas Worst Driver" but for all these "racers" who try to hop ranks faster than they're skilled
Danica is not nearly as bad a driver as redneck poor southern fried Americans attempt to make her seem. She was good in open wheel stuff and could drive a race car pretty well in nascar. Her “race craft” & temper often got her in trouble but I refuse to listen to clowns who can’t handle street cars at street legal speeds without accidents call a professional racer bad ( with the exception of this Indian fellow lol)
I remember signing Lord Mahaveer in F1 2020 My team as my teammate... bro had DNFed in 8 races out of 24, in the first season alone... Then followed by another 5 DNFs in the 2nd season, scoring 0 points in the first season and 2 points in the 2nd season 🤣🤣
The difference between Mahaveer and other “Bad” drivers in F1 (Specifically the examples you gave, Mazespin and Goatifi) is that the latter two were actually pretty quick in their junior careers but fell apart when they got into F1, which is a whole different kettle of fish Mahaveer achieved literally nothing in his junior career and still got a seat in F2 I dread to think how he could’ve been in F1, he could’ve been only the second driver in F1 history to have his Superlicense revoked for being too stupid
@@prashanthg8165 wow I clearly "don't watch racing". You clearly don't understand banter. Kush Maini is simply doing good nothing great. And good isn't good enough for formula 1.

Bortoleto even won the Austrian GP starting third, now that's called doing great. Your turn to prove you watch racing.
@@ifixthingsjr oh I see, I wasn't aware that it was banter but as far as kush is concerned, I think he's doing better than last season, this season he got unlucky because of his car. He drove in Monaco and imola with broken chiassis which hampered his performance. Plus there are exceptional talents in F2 like kimi Antonelli, bearman, hadjar, martins and others who are performing great. Also to mention that it has tight competition than F2, so we see different winners every grand prix race.
Bro how the hell did this guy not know how to reverse when he’s from INDIA. bro sometimes the roads are so tight or you barely have any space, so doing a 5-6 or 7 point turn is a necessity, especially when you have like a foot of space on both sides. It is an essential skill in India, I’m genuinely shocked he couldn’t do it with ease compared to other drivers

They almost all just make videos about F1 and try and capitalize on the fact that F1 was just purchased and is being marketed heavily towards people who had never heard of it until last year. F1 has to be the most soulless Motorsport right now.
Okay *user-mq6xu8ub2h*
Ah fuck this

I'm still trying to figure out why he is "the lord". Maybe we'll get the info in some other video.
Give his cars a horn and he will win every single race 😂
Yea typical Indian 😂
Bro 💀💀💀🤣
Just don’t make him race on street tracks cause he’s gonna stop for a number 2
@@blueberrymushroom8229 why my reply was reported but not this comment lol 😂
I can't stop laughing lol
if he have co pilot, his co pilot would scream "mahaveer, you're breaking the car"
If I was from India I would never disgrace my country like this I know India is feeling unwell because of this man
Actually, you would be if you knew our politics and the type of greedy people in our country :/

Never travel alone in India as a lone foreign woman.
Yeah, I have heard really bad stories. What was your experience when going there?
@@justno984 My sister went there 6 years ago as post highschool graduation holiday trip. Whenever she left her hotel to buy groceries, she was constantly stared at by men who kept following, asking for pictures and asking if she is single. She was scared to the point she always needed her friends to comeover to escort her just to buy food nearby.
@@justno984 Sorry 2 answers of mine just seem to disappear after being posted. Guess it was censored. But I you can easily figure it out.
So he technically finished an F2 season, with -23 points? Jesus christ.
This is a bigger indictment of the FIA and the sport as a whole being so money oriented and less about who are the most talented drivers.
This guy makes Mazepin look like Michael Shumacher.
Naahhhhh that's factss
The conceit that comes with being a bad player in the highest league is that you're still better than 99% of the people who ever try that sport/activity, but I didn't get that impression here. I feel like he'd put the same numbers up in a go-kart race as in an F1 championship.
watching him do his 3-point turn tragedy immediately gave me flashbacks of Austin Powers in his first movie where he manages to get that golf cart stuck in the tunnel. _hilarious!_
Dude, the scene is actually in this clip...
As a Spaniard, I wasn't expecting to hear my country's anthem as background music 😂 6:52
I have no idea why parents push their kids out of karting into single seaters so soon. Karts are where you can really push and get used to feeling tire grip at its limit with little consequences. It’s also where you’re going to have the most competition with equal and better drivers. Moving to single seaters too soon will stunt your growth as a driver.
Karts are great but Karts are also driven differently to cars. For example, physically leaning to the outside while rounding the corner is a technique that only applies to karting but is essential to be competitive. Fixed axel karts with no suspension will require different driving techniques than all other racing car series.
@@deanjdk True but one year of karts before single seaters is way too soon in my opinion. I feel like you should stay in karts for at least 5 years to fine tune your seat of the pants feel for tire grip. That feel is everything in racing, after you get that you can adapt to different vehicles and learn how to pilot those. But if you aren’t comfortable at and exceeding the limits in a kart where the speeds are slow, you are going to be overly timid in a car and slow down your development as a driver. Exceeding tire grip in a car can be a huge disaster financially and physically, in a kart you can do it comfortably and not worry about endangering your whole season financially or get hurt.
@@maxcalder1010 5 years developing skill in a different direction than the one required for single seaters. 5 years of muscle memory playing the cello when ultimately, you're in a guitar playing competition, will it help? Sure, but better than actual practise in a single seater, definitely not. Karts handle much too differently (as great as they are).
@@deanjdk The lack of consequences in karts is huge. You can't become great at something (car control) without failing.
@@rileyh4169 I'm not arguing against karts, I think they're great and definitely a big help but ultimately, they handle completely differently than a car with suspension and a non solid rear axel. A kid developing in a kart is doing so a bit differently than the same kid in a car. Competitive karting is also arguably more expensive than clubman racing. Start in karts, get them into cars if/when they're ready after a year or 2 or 3.
14:28 The Sparco sponsorship branded right above the front windshield of the ride shown for his '24 bid is appropriate. "If Sparco's good enough for Mahaveer, it's good enough for you!"
Why are people still hiring this guy? Seriously, is he buying seats? I can't think of anything else...
That's pretty much it. Motorsports is expensive and not every skilled driver has a generous sponsor package that they bring along with them. There are a lot of very rich wannabes out there though, and sometimes a team just has to burn a season to take their money and let them have their fun.
Same reason mazepin, stroll and latifi where in F1. They pay to be there.
@@legendtoni1094 Mazepin wins F2 races
a lot
shut up hater
@truekera you must be russian. Focus on the war not car races.
@@truekeraLatifi also. Shut up Mazespin fanboy.
I was a diehard F1 fan in the past...But those clowns buying their place in F1 made me quit following F1... straight up
His dad should have got him gym membership Instead of racing.
This is the reality of nepotism in sports in India. Where rich brats overpower talent.
takes a rare kind of driver to make Lance Stroll or Narain Karthikeyan look like Alain Prost but here we are
Fun fact...Narain Karthikeyan was the NASCAR Truck Series most popular driver in 2010...then after 5 years came back to F1 driving for Hispania Racing Team.
Lmaoo
@@PaperBanjo64he used to run Super GT too 5 years ago, and won one of the SGTxDTM Dream Race heats.
this guy n Narain , was like night & day….😅
I've recently learning about Danica, (Which yes she raced in a different Category) but.... this dude is much worse, and deserves the worst driver award (imo and the video also shows many examples lol)
They should bring back "Canadas Worst Driver" but for all these "racers" who try to hop ranks faster than they're skilled
Danica is not nearly as bad a driver as redneck poor southern fried Americans attempt to make her seem. She was good in open wheel stuff and could drive a race car pretty well in nascar. Her “race craft” & temper often got her in trouble but I refuse to listen to clowns who can’t handle street cars at street legal speeds without accidents call a professional racer bad ( with the exception of this Indian fellow lol)
The way he reversed that car, I seriously doubt he could pass his road car driving test!
9:51 "i'm not trying to be mean here"
*proceeds to further roast the lord*
Nobody remembers Alex Yoong? He can't even qualify for the Sunday's race on a few GPs!
I remember signing Lord Mahaveer in F1 2020 My team as my teammate... bro had DNFed in 8 races out of 24, in the first season alone... Then followed by another 5 DNFs in the 2nd season, scoring 0 points in the first season and 2 points in the 2nd season 🤣🤣
The first season in My team is brutal, you’re stuck with goatifi and lord mahaveer and forced to beat mercedes alone
You did WHAT?!?!?!
@@timothyS_taproductions I tried to improve Lord Mahaveer's stats 😆😆
@@Dr.Beatzzz damn
LOL... his face looks like an "Indian Mr Bean"...
I can’t believe he was never dropped from a team before he got banned 2 times in one season 😂😂😂
The difference between Mahaveer and other “Bad” drivers in F1 (Specifically the examples you gave, Mazespin and Goatifi) is that the latter two were actually pretty quick in their junior careers but fell apart when they got into F1, which is a whole different kettle of fish
Mahaveer achieved literally nothing in his junior career and still got a seat in F2
I dread to think how he could’ve been in F1, he could’ve been only the second driver in F1 history to have his Superlicense revoked for being too stupid
When your dad owns a call centre
Lmao, this makes Kush Maini look like Michael Schumacher in comparison.
Kush Maini makes Karun Chandhok look like Niki Lauda 😂😂
U clearly don't watch racing. He's doing good in F2 along with his Brazilian teammate
@@prashanthg8165 so apparently you have to watch F2 and F3 along with every regional F3 and F4 series to be a true F1 fan
@@prashanthg8165 wow I clearly "don't watch racing". You clearly don't understand banter. Kush Maini is simply doing good nothing great. And good isn't good enough for formula 1. Kush has got many chances to get his car on the top step of the podium, but everytime he has been on pole he has bottled the start ruining his race even ending up below his teammate who started below him. Bortoleto even won the Austrian GP starting third, now that's called doing great. Your turn to prove you watch racing.
@@ifixthingsjr oh I see, I wasn't aware that it was banter but as far as kush is concerned, I think he's doing better than last season, this season he got unlucky because of his car. He drove in Monaco and imola with broken chiassis which hampered his performance. Plus there are exceptional talents in F2 like kimi Antonelli, bearman, hadjar, martins and others who are performing great. Also to mention that it has tight competition than F2, so we see different winners every grand prix race.
You are talking about Lord Mahaveer like you don't know someone who is called Alessio Deledda - Greatest Of All Time
I think Deledda is worse because I know more about him and his personal life, through his actions, in media.
He certainly left his mark on F1
Kinda like how Hi*ler left his mark on History
Bro how the hell did this guy not know how to reverse when he’s from INDIA. bro sometimes the roads are so tight or you barely have any space, so doing a 5-6 or 7 point turn is a necessity, especially when you have like a foot of space on both sides. It is an essential skill in India, I’m genuinely shocked he couldn’t do it with ease compared to other drivers
This makes me watch documentaries on the best drivers now. I feel like these bad driver clowns don’t deserve the spotlight.
He's a racing lord, he is not worthy of the word "Worst"
Great content as always!
Suggestion: Make a video about the V10 era in Formula 1 (1995-2005) and how they pushed engineering to the limits (pushing out 1000hp)
appreciate the kind words mate & noted!
@@DailyFuelUp No problem, bud!
Underrated channel
Sometimes you like to think you could one day make it to F1 and be better than professional drivers.... Against Ragunathan there might be a possibility
the real reason you call him lord is because you're praying he doesnt crash into anyone else WHEN he crashes :P
Needing 247 steps to make a 3 point turn is absolutely mind blowing. 😂 I wonder if he even has a drivers license
Modest means my dad owns a private jet not a fleet of private jets
Someone might claim you're being race-ist.
I'm pretty sure I can outdrive mahaveer with a keyboard and mouse on the F1 game
why does bro look shell shocked in every picture 💀
I might add Danica to this very short list 😆. Great video, thanks!!
One thing I keep in mind, no matter how bad some race drivers are, that they made it into a racing career and the rest of us didn't.
I have the absolute privilege that I can say I ran a test day in Abu Dhabi with the Lord in a GP3 car..
End of 2015 season.
Never did explain why you call him “The Lord”, nor did you explain how got banned from F2.
Josh Revell anointed him with that name 3 years ago (see his video it’s had over 3 Million views!!)
Josh’s TH-cam store has merchandise available with his “name” also
Pretty sure it was Josh Revell that gave that name. This guy took it and made it sound like his own

oh my goodness i completely forgot about my glorious king mahaveer raghunathan. in the 2020 game i remember him always being 20th and lapping him just under 2 laps into the race. thank you for blessing us with your presence lord mahaveer
Maybe he was busy taking incoming Microsoft Support calls in the helmet headset?
i lol-ed hard at this hahahahahaa
Stand back everyone, walmart conan made a joke!!
Your parents are definitely related. Maybe they were busy fking each other instead of taking an ancestry test?
From being a taxi driver to F1 to taxi driver.
He looks like an Indian Mr. Bean.
ive once heard about a thought from NASCAR that they maybe put up a ''Danger Car'' to spice the boring races up a bit :D maybe F2 and F1 were actually trying that ! :D:D
Nice video btw ! you got me in to watching the funny stuff of Formula racing !
It wouldn't surprise me if an Indian company really did pay to get him in the spotlight without giving a damn how terrible he was. This kind of thing seems to be happening everywhere, people getting jobs not because they're the best but because they make up the numbers.
