why is my newsfeed full of guys repairing broken cars instead of this? great talk. liked, subscribed, commented.

[@TheRacingYears]

@@whattheluck7 thank you very much, this means a lot and I couldn’t agree more. Not many people want this format nowadays they would rather have 10 seconds of cars sliding around and move on the the next video.
More will come soon

Hey... Did you do the F1 Liveries channel?

[@TheRacingYears]

It’s not me no

[@dundeedideley1773]

good video, but a tip:
Saying "yea" 500 times adds nothing and is not necessary for an interview

[@TheRacingYears]

Noted thank you

[@RoysIdea]

Is Steve the most successful F1 designer or is it Adrian? I believe it is Adrian.

[@TheRacingYears]

An interesting question and one that we touch on in the video, the mp4/4 that Steve designed has technically dominated more of the season in percentage terms in the 1988 seasons than any other F1 car had done before or since. Steve however has great respect for Adrian as he mentions but currently from a dominating point of view Steve’s car was more successful. A great pub chat though!!

[@RoysIdea]

@@TheRacingYears what statistics are you referring to? Percentage of most wins in a season is last year’s RB.

[@kondjanegongo796]

most successful? Aldo Costa is my friend... even more than Newey and Rory Byrne
