Man qualified P5 in the wet at 2021 Belgian GP with the 6th best car on the grid. Also stopped to check on Lando after his horrific crash. Form is temporary, class is permanent.
@@joaopaulopavesi6831 bro, stop the fanboying and overhyping. Yes, George's performance was incredible. There's no doubting that, he outqualified Lewis Hamilton. But Williams weren't 9th best. They were top 4 that day. They went for a super aggressive high downforce setup, while others didn't. If the race on Sunday had been dry, George wouldn't have finished even 10th. I don't think Latifi has the capability to outqualify Alonso and Sainz in a much slower car, does he ?
Why are the Technical Directors incapable of sticking with the on board shot for an entire lap. They always go to another shot, and usually right before an awesome corner or section.
I feel like it might've been an issue with the camera range. Sometimes, I think the cameras cut out through that off-camber right (I don't remember the name of the corner)
Yep, that is number one complaint of mine as well, just when you need to see every detail of drive line taken, braking points hit before turn, run off points legal, but what's really painful, PS4 GTSports have not acquired this track yet, vs PS3 GT6, where I was on this track for hours a day in Lemans cars like R18's. Man I miss this track for the intense learning curve at these speeds always on the edge. From members I race with in this class, they mentioned that the rights to these tracks cost Sony, etc over a million$. Kinda blows your mind if true. Then it's noticed on other consoles, that they have these tracks missing from GTSports. Drives one crazy. Cheers
That's so true man... I was crying when they change the camera angle... like Steve Carrel when he goes like ''Nooooo God, please noo, no... no... NOOOOOOO!!!!''
@@bram9595 Hopefully you are right,, I haven't had PS4 online since the big move for a couple years now. Back then our team noticed Sony didn't want to spend the million$ for the track rights for PS4. A few other tracks never made it back sadly, that were very popular on PS3 GT6. Yet other racing sims did,, if I recall Corsica SimRacing - TH-cam. Cheers
This is the only sport that puts me in awe. I just can't conceive how those guys drive like that. I know it's part talent, part experience and a lot of nerve but sometimes it almost seems mystical. They are all good if they are sitting in a F1 car but the really great ones make it seem like magic and it's a pleasure to watch.
BBC F1 and Sky F1, especially Sky F1, claiming that Lewis Hamilton's pole lap at Spa was perfect in every single way possible, and possibly the finest pole lap at Spa - ever, even though he made several minor corrections. They obviously forgot about Vettel's (record) lap from 2009, not a single mistake, no even minor corrections.
I agree with you, but you have to remember this is NOT a pole lap... this is a racing lap. Lap record = fastest ever racing lap, track record = fastest ever lap (any kind) on the track
@@Anon24052 Di Resta nearly did it in a Force India in changing weather conditions. It's now called Racing Point and only has one driver who deserves to drive in F1.
Couldn't agree more. F1 should not be about large auto companies trying to vet technology for road cars. When was the last time you saw a regular road car with carbon brake discs or slicks?. I guess that means F1 should go back to iron discs?. F1 should be about exciting racing. Not cars that are so complicated that multiple drivers in one race can't figure out what setting on the steering wheel they need to use in order to get the car running at top speed. No wonder ratings keep diving.
@MrLewisbate Mate, I think you would scream trough Eau Rouge and after Eau Rouge you probably won't say "Still not the highlight of the season" (in terms of corners of course)
That's just insane how late the braking points are and how quick the turn-ins are and then how much speed is carried before it's back on the peddle! I really get the impression there's no room for error; the slightest mistake = hitting something hard very fast. Add to all of this the need to hold your breath on every fast corner because of the G forces pushing your lungs into the side of the seat having just had all the wind punched out of them after the braking. It's controlled madness after an energy drink.
S AA trail braking - you keep on the brakes after turning into the corner to keep weight over the nose of the car, reducing understeer. The front aero also obviously adds additional weight on the nose.
I was searching for this lap, thanks for uploading !! :D (keep uploading videos like that, that's what everyone wants ! Onboard videos with pure engine sound !)
Look at his helmet when he’s accelerating/braking. You can see how much the car puts him back in his seat and pushes him forward. Can’t even imagine what that feels like
I love the Spa Circuit, of course Eau Rouge. Just something about that long downhill curve that does it for me. Thanks for the ride along, it was very cool.
I love this back then i love watching formula 1 i was 10 yo in front of a tv...now i don’t watch it any more bc its all about electronics DRS,ERS they shoud keep same cars and just put halo’s on them
What I love most about those F-1 cars is that for some reason, the speed at which they take corners sync up perfectly at the speed at which someone processes visual memories. Awesome.
Man, I had to replay it 3 times - Truly miss this track. The coolest turns and uphill at the same time, is just epic flat out, sadly w/o Heads-up display to show full chassis, engine & speed data.
while yes the sound of the v8 era is great, v10 even better and V12 is... don't need to be explained. this Seb's run on 2009 which is flawless is 1 second slower than Valteri's lap 9 years later, which is 1:46.286, while seb's 1:47.283 in a case yes the cars are getting slightly dull sound wise but the speed is improving, not slowing at all
But just remember that this is one lap try driving for 60 laps over 2 hours that takes great determination and skill that's why the great ones like Senna,prost, Schumacher,etc,were incredible talent
my favoraite hero for ever sebastian vettel i saw each and every race from his first race till the hungarian gp in ferrari i hope he wins like last race i hafe his ferrari cap too thanks formula 1 for putting on this video thanks thanks thanks thanks a lot.
You can say whatever you want but VETTEL in his prime was UNSTOPPABLE. And there is no other driver as unstoppable as he was, even Michael or Senna. Seb made lots of mistakes in Ferrari? Yep but he also made it a championship contender... Red bull and vettel were way stronger than any other combo in f1 history

So true. Seb is like an embodiment of that quote

i suppose pouhon wasnt that perfect, correct me if im wrong but he missed the second apex, but other than that yeah it was ridiculous
Spa is such a beautiful circuit!
The best one, well.. par with Monaco. And hum... Monza is not far behind.... Hockenheim has been butchered, sadly.
True but Hubert's crash ruined it for me for a while I like monza the most tbh
@@bobzihoMonaco is the worse circuit modern cars are too big to race there

yet the new engines are faster stop crying u sound like a chilfd
+Julian Duepre child*
Julian Duepre they are faster in qauli but they cant do that the whole race so the old engines are mutch faster in the race
bro mans was a BEAST i’m sorry but this is one of the best laps i’ve ever seen
What's "sorry" about this?😂
@@nirvanacirclejerk Sometimes you say "Im sorry" in disbelief... At least i do haha
This lap has to be fake though , ain't no way an F1 driver can go that fast without modern engines. Might be edited by FOM to add some spice

What’s funny about Formula 1 recommendations are that when the next race is about to start, I always see replays from that said track.
almost like youtube recognizes that more people search for said track when a race comes on
must be some sort of dark magic
just kidding bro :D
Yeah, also, welcome to everyone who finds this video and comment later : ) ...
It's about time you started uploading some real videos.. keep it up.

I miss 'maximum attack' F1.
damn good driVing. that late trail braking, he knows exactly where he has enough downforce.
S AA elaborate on what? there's trail braking and there's downforce.
S AA trail braking - you keep on the brakes after turning into the corner to keep weight over the nose of the car, reducing understeer. The front aero also obviously adds additional weight on the nose.
Wow. This got recommended to me right after 2021 Belgian Grand Prix
The sound of the engine lowering revs when he brakes it's just incredible

no
back then when you could push car on the limits, no fuel saving and not so much tyre saving.
Pizzahousu That's because there was refueling, So naturally there wouldn't be much fuel saving...
@114471064643404896987 Fuel-saving existed (not as much as since 2010 but still) even in those days despite in-race refuelling.
stowe07 it's not a qualy lap
stowe07 see the video yourself, you have the answer there
+stowe07 No its not.
sounds so good
This is the best lap i’ve ever seen.
imagine going from redbull 11 years ago setting a lap record to ferrari's 2020 only putting down a best lap 2 seconds slower
@The Archangel so much wisdom in this reply
The sound is just unbelievable. I would prefer this any day over any trending music.
Dam Vettel is no 1 what a driver
the 2020 pole for Spa was 6 seconds faster. Insane.
I was searching for this lap, thanks for uploading !! :D (keep uploading videos like that, that's what everyone wants ! Onboard videos with pure engine sound !)
Just beautiful, what a brilliant driver.
Fantastic! Make more videos like this.
bring back this man please,
i miss the old of him smh
@Horche Bortzie he lost his touch that's all i can say
I think the car really matched his driving style. More more than a Ferrari I think.
He is with Ferrari now. You will never see the old vettel again.
He back
Waiting for 2021 Belgium GP and this pops up. Ironic
Still faster than 2021 belgium qualifying time
That qualifying was in the wet so not really a fair comparison
we are just, like, missing old days when seb drive for redbull, former f1 drivers in golden era (for me), and perfect engine sound
I miss that sound :(
Masio1995 than start watching f1 2009 races you don’t miss any sound
He's now retiring from Formula 1. Thank you for the great memories, Sebastian 💚
I miss that Vettel
Next year we'll see this vettel at the new team
Yup, Red Bull Vettel was something else, should not have left.
He's getting there I guess
Look at his helmet when he’s accelerating/braking. You can see how much the car puts him back in his seat and pushes him forward. Can’t even imagine what that feels like
Dude had his foot floored thru eau rogue , respect
You mean Raidillon. Eau rouge has always been full out aside from 94 they had that disgusting chicane after Eau rouge.
This video will never get old.
Perfect lap perfect lines perfect everything...nice video...
I love the Spa Circuit, of course Eau Rouge. Just something about that long downhill curve that does it for me. Thanks for the ride along, it was very cool.
Today, the lap record during the race is 1:46.286, Valtteri Bottas, Mercedes, 2018.
The engine sound is million times better than 2021 spec cars...
You can really see the G forces when he brakes he just sinks into the car
There's something breathtaking about F1 on this circuit. The insane speed down the straights then massive G's on the corners. I like it a lot.
0:35 to 0:40 steep blind climb, does my head in. Great track.
Raidillon is beautiful and technical. These cars make it look easy
I love this back then i love watching formula 1 i was 10 yo in front of a tv...now i don’t watch it any more bc its all about electronics DRS,ERS they shoud keep same cars and just put halo’s on them

Its called Pouhon.
that beast was glue to the ground! beautiful machine
Amazing run!!!
The last sector he’s on full throttle for 20 seconds straight, I had never realized how long that stretch was. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Drivers have to be pushing to the limit during the race too. We need more "maximum attack" moments.
while yes the sound of the v8 era is great, v10 even better and V12 is... don't need to be explained. this Seb's run on 2009 which is flawless is 1 second slower than Valteri's lap 9 years later, which is 1:46.286, while seb's 1:47.283

I checked this video out on remembering playing F1 on PS1. Loved to wind it up and drive straight through the chicane.

10 years later he finds himself is a shitbox.
Aaaaaahhhh the good days of F1 love 2006 to 2010
