Pescara is something that fascinates me. The one time that F1 ran this track dates back to 1957. Even though it's not worthy of today's F1 cars it's still a very unique course. Totally one of F1's best one off tracks in the world. I can see some Formula One drag racing on the long straightaways to make it exciting.
What actually happened is Jack Brabham was running out of fuel. He was racing an F2 Cooper, which only had a fuel capacity of 12 gallons. Compare that to Fangio's pole-winning Maserati 250F, which had a 52-gallon tank. Brabham's car started sputtering going up the hill so he filled up at a gas station by the side of the track. Still a pretty incredible story.
Come pescarese, posso assicurare che il tracciato è riprodotto con estrema fedeltà. Oggi è quasi tutto immerso in un contesto urbano (Pescara, Spoltore, Cappelle sul Tavo, Montesilvano costituiscono di fatto un unico centro abitato), ma la ricostruzione di taluni dettagli è perfettamente riconoscibile. Bellissimo.
As an Italian, thank you for bringing this epic and historic circuit. It was an event that is passionately remembered to this day in Abruzzo (the region in which Pescara is located). Pescara lays between sea and hills/mountains
That's not true. Enzo Ferrari was in a dispute with the Italian government and automobile club. They were in the process of banning road racing in Italy after de Portago's crash in that year's Mille Miglia. Enzo was vehemently against this. When this, a road race, was announced fairly last-minute (after the cancellation of two other Grands Prix), Enzo withdrew his cars as a protest. Essentially "look you banned road racing because it's too dangerous and now you're doing a road race and you said those are too dangerous). It had nothing to do with actual safety concerns from Ferrari. This was trying to make the Italian automobile club look bad. This is all detailed in the book "The Last Road Race," which is excellent.
F1 raced ones here in 1957. Pole Position was the same lap time as moos in the race and was set by Fangio. That was crazy when you watch todays race laps been several seconds slower than the quali times. Simulation Lap: 3 Minutes faster and the average 60km/h higher than in 1957.
Imagine how many fatalities would happen if they actually held this GP today, even with HALO, HANS etc, the curves are extremely tight and there are many houses without protective barrier. Besides, that straight at the end is worthy of Le Mans 💀
@@iNTERS22 the original track actually didn’t have that chicane, it was added on later on. So at first they were just flying through that straight haha
@@phamlevinh821 Glad to hear that haha! Thank you for your support all these year my friend, I remember seeing your comments from 4 years ago, glad to see you still here 😁

I live in Pescara. A lot of parta of this track are changed SO MUCH. This year there was a 2 day car show for the centenario.
Part of the track is my daily route to work. Fascinating...
Lewis: “Bono, my tires are gone"
Bono: “Lewis, it’s only the formation lap”
"These tires are crap"
sets fastest laptime 1 minute later.
@@florichi*7 minutes later
fun fact: a driver had a mechanical problem during the race but he was too far from the pits so he got his car repaired at a gas station nearby

The GOAT is back 👍👏👏👏👏
@@eholanda01 Glad to see you still around my friend, you’ve always supported me from the very beginning 🙂
@@Mitsos1311 welcome back!
Amazing how the middle part of the track could easily be a tarmac rally stage... yet this was a F1 track, somehow
Feels like really catalunya 😂

imagine tried to remeber the entire track ...
Glad you are back brother
@@commandergeokam2868 Εχω ήδη βάλει 700 χιλιόμετρα σε αυτή στην πίστα στο AC 😭, δεν μπορούσα να τα θυμηθώ όλα
the race engineer gotta cosplay as a WRC co-driver for the driver to properly make it through the whole circuit
2 straights, 2 short straights. The rest is just curves.
HE'S BACK!!! WELCOME BACK MAN 🙌🥳
The king has returned! Welcome back Mitsos.

And welcome back Mitsos ❤️
I know, I've been waiting for years for this!
Un abraccio dall Abruzzo ❤️
Dajee
frechete compà!
Oppelamajell!
I love the railroad beside the racetrack, safety wise it was the icing on the cake, and I bet the trains were even rolling on during the race.
Fun fact, this circuit is so dangerous that Enzo Ferrari didn't want his drivers to race there
Did you see the Ferrari movie, he didnt care about safety at all?

The twisty part of the track would actually make an awesome rally stage
I'm so glad that he came back! I thought he'd never come back, but he did!! 🤝

depressing to see what happened.. glad to see you back mate
The absolute GOAT has returned 🎉🎉🎉
