I love this channel! It’s convincing me to be an architect
Do it!! You'll never look back!
@@TheB1M sure will’
Don't do it you'll be a smelly virgin for life trust me
Me too
Compare 1961 East Berlin vs 2021 Hong Kong IN YOUR NEXT VIDEO!!
Now I understand how Kimi could just go off to his yacht. Nowhere in the world, this could have happened
Abu Dhabi could happen. Racetrack is right next to Yas Marina.
@@prof1crl also in abudabhi kimi straight up went to his road car
@@prof1crl Pretty sure alcohol is illegal in Abu Dhabi so he’d have no reason to go on a yacht.
Did u watch that f1 vídeo earlier as well 😂
@@DuffyBlanco Where have you heard it's illegal? As long as you're not a muslim, you're totally fine buying alcohol in Abu Dhabi?
a B1M and Formula 1 crossover?? I must be in heaven😍😍
Hahaha! You are. This is what heaven is like. Forget all those paintings on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, it's actually just your favourite sport and TH-cam channel combining!
Just what I thought aswell
It is
Perfect simply perfect
You know
I am a civil engineer and the work that goes into making this a reality is mind blowing. I have gone 4 times via boat and it never gets old. For me, it is the infrastructure, that amazes me, but the skill to navigate this engineering wonder is a close second.
Imagine using those resources to better mankind instead of entertain rich yuppies.
@@Sashko_Dee imagine whining because you stack no bread
@@faedrenn Wanting rich yuppies to build schools and hospitals instead of polluting the planet in the pursuit of making cars go around in a circle makes me broke somehow. Got it.
@@Sashko_Dee imagine how many profit that they get to pay their workers and money that come to that area from tourist. Imijinee
@@Sashko_Deedo you know what a job is?
"Its a sight and a sound that never gets old"
_plays pre-hyrbid era engine sounds_
Those weren't even F1 engines.
Sounds like IndyCar to me
Can’t wait to see Mazepin drive the car into the ocean
If he can make it through sainte devote😂
he will
Carbamazepine
If he can do that, he will be a legend like Maldonado, C'mon mazepin don't let us down!!
Funny comment, im dying of laughter
Being an ardent formula 1 follower and a civil engineer yet I never realized how monaco grand prix was so much more complicated than any other. Wow that was an amazing video
Narrow streets. Curves as hell. You can find easiest place to race with F1 !
There is a video of the Redbull building it's amazing. They ship it over on a barge. Huge.
@NobleGuy exactly. Overall, the logistics for any street racetracks are hella impressive.
Complicated than any other? You've never been to Singapore then.
I have sat and enjoyed watching the pitlane growing overnight while have a night out at La Rascasse.
Incredible teamwork from everyone
Monaco is the one track that will never leave the F1 calendar as it's the one race every driver wants to win besides their home race and to win it more than once is to join a exclusive club.
Ok, that animated circuit layout through the years graphic at 1:20 is excellent. Not seen a circuit's evolution shown like that before.
F1 did one for silver stone last year at the 70th anniversary race. It was good I recommend looking it up
It also has a ticking sound for every passing year. It's the little touches that make the video special.
Watch one for hockenheim and you'll get really depressed!
This video combines both my passions, really looking forward to the Monaco GP this weekend!!🔥
F1 is a logistic miracle, and no race highlights it better than the Monaco GP.
Ah.. you just read my mind
Hi mate, haven't seen you long time, so how's it going ?
The race itself will be really boring tho (if held in dry condition), but i agree the logistic and engineering for this gp is the most insane compare to other gp
wendover productions missed an opportunity here.
Sorry,you mean QUALIFYING?
One of my favourite tracks in F1 and the most challenging I think especially the corner into the tunnel, It cool to see how much work goes into creating the street circuit and the facilities brought in
Holy crap. I've driven around Monaco. It's amazing that F1 cars are doing the speeds they do on such narrow and twisty roads.
The amount of autosport puns in this video is just pit-iful :P
So many puns makes me exhausted. Hee hee.
All of these pubs are pushing me to my braking point. hee hee :)
one can never get tyred of puns xD
Has to be probably one of the most iconic tracks ever. Somewhere I've always wanted to go.
I just wish overtaking was more possible. Just a tad more possible. Like verstappen vs hamilton that one time...
@@OttoIncandenza agreed, that's part of what it makes it seriously entertaining. Especially if someone knows how to actually drive they can watch the race and understand what these drivers are going through for that half a second they get to overtake a car in front of them and the risks that they're taking, but I digress, I agree with what you're saying.
@@jayfitmob8645 Monaco is the best Saturday of the F1 season but easily the worst Sunday
@@TimTomJimJom The best Saturday yes, but the Sunday atmosphere places it above Sochi, Paul Ricard or Yas Marina.
Iconic, yes but the worse track to watch a race on for the majority of viewers.
Oxymoron?
I live here , and I can tell you that when the race start you can’t do shit in town , you are literally stuck at home or if you have the courage to ho outside you’ll be stuck for 3 h in police controls or in traffic jam
NOICE ; )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
MONACO FTW
0:02 Especially V12 sound...
I wish every day could start off with such a perfect video! Thank you for this!
So true 😍
happens
Doesn’t matter how fast those cars are I clicked on this video faster
hahahaha, thanks!
speed
Same
Faster than Haas maybe.
IT'S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN
3:25 idk why but I thought he was going to say "200,000 people come in but only 100,000 leave" :O
Even as a kid, when I no one had told me yet that it's a country, it felt to me like the whole thing with a track going through a "city" of this size was crazy.
Well it's pretty much a city, it's just legally independent
@@MatakkoTV2 Which is a country.
Though it is hard to overtake, this track is one of my favorite.
As someone who has watched F1 for 15+ years its amazing that I had to come to an architecture/construction channel to find out way more than I knew about the monaco setup, they only cover stuff like this for minimal time.
The B1M makes millions of construction and racing fans happy with a single video.
Haha! Fingers crossed for millions...!
@@TheB1M yes looks like 3 million 😂
I’m a simple man, I see a new video uploaded by B1M , I tap
B1M x F1 absolutely Elite. Can't wait for Fred and Will Buxton to do a collab!
0:32 i love how he says that
Perfect timing for the tomorrow Monaco Grand Prix
F1 + B1M crossover?!?! 🤯😍
Unexpected but amazing! :D
I suspect a lot of us are fans of both here 😂
The crossover we never knew we needed
Probably the most iconic track of f1 history
SO this is how playing LEGO using real size objects feels like .
3:17
2023 Las Vegas GP: Hold my beer bro
Two of my favourite things to watch doing a colab, b1m and f1 😍
Haha, you're welcome!!
Some of my favorite things as well :)
Having been to Monaco a few times, the thought of 600 trucks driving through those streets is terrifying, traffic is already horrible during the regular summer months
A lot of it is done at night so the traffic isn't that much worse in the weeks leading up to Grand Prix. The traffic becomes bad in the days leading up because of the tourists + the streets being blocked off for the track.
This has got to be the biggest flex to show off their road quality!
Wow amazing indeed! It's one of those things we take for granted not realising how big of a feat it is.
Thanks for the very good video, I learned a few things and loved it for the amount of great content inserted in such short length :)
I'm actually impressed you chose to publish your video on the Monaco GP race weekend. Hence it'll catch up many F1 viewers to your video, anyway as usual your videos are informative and helpful. Cheers B1M 🙂
Putting a barrier and safety mesh around will protect spectators and building
Mazapin: im driving my submarine
This channel reminds me of those discover tv series (Megastructures I think one was called). But without the 1 million ad breaks and repeated content after each break, or filler footage to fill a 45min(aka 1h w/ ads) slot.
Just straight to the point. Thank you!
Having just lived through weeks of road resurfacing right outside of my house, there is no way I would live somewhere where they do it this often haha.
Fantastic video as ever!
2:42 , pretty sure there are 10 teams on the grid, great vis nonetheless
Yeah I’m with you on this one. Overall a great video, but that mistake makes you think they don’t really care to double check everything before reading the script.
@@ravimooruth4159 No hard feelings man but that makes no sense. There were 12 teams up untill 2014 I believe, that's probably is the reason he mentioned 12 teams.
10 teams + Media + FIA ( Stewards) = 12
@@topiasr628 media and stewards are not a team tho
F3 has 12 teams
The moment I was notified of this video being uploaded I clicked on it to watch. Whoever in the B1M had this video idea I thank you wholeheartedly for this idea. Monaco GP this weekend and I can't wait
2:39 *10 teams; McLaren, Mercedes, Redbull, Ferrari, Alpine, Aston Martin, AlphaTauri, Williams, Alfa Romeo and Haas :)
I love the way the B1M always keeps things on Track 🙂
One of the reasons i want to visit Monaco.
I've been on the track once but of course you have to observe speed limits on normal days when it's just a road.
this channel brings out the architect in me
Maybe it will bring out the engineer in you too.
What an amazing achievement that a group of people can construct such a fantastic set to stage one of the greatest racing spectacle's seen in the Western world!
Well done to all who are involved.
Thanks B1M for bringing us such brilliant insight of a "behind the scenes" look how this achieved!
idc what anyone says Monaco is one of my favorite circuits in F1 and one of the most iconic. I get theres and overtaking problem but that just makes quali that much more important and the overtakes we do see are so much more insane.
This has got to be one of the few times where are the tiniest of nations is regularly able to pull off something that even the world superpowers can only dream of.
Do you ķnow how much money these people in Monaco have?
@@abdullahrashid7385 Do you know how much space Monaco itself has?
@@1Heptic what does space have to do with it lol
@@abdullahrashid7385 not a lot of space and can still pull of a very well known Grand Prix, what does money have to do with it? Last time I check some countries F1 has raced in don’t have a lot of money
@@abdullahrashid7385 they’re restricted to their roads because they have nothing else
lets gooo. ive been watching b1m for like a year and ive always wanted them to do something related to formula 1
Fantastic video....probably the top of my list for the most favourite content (being a petrol head) produced amongst all the other quality videos made. Keep up the great work! Also loved the billionaires row pencil towers in NY videos.
I absolutely love F1, love architecture. Awesome video. It really shows the amount of logistics and planning involved.
May I just say that this channel inspired me to pursue an urban planning degree (can’t drawn so no architectural stuff). Thanks for your hard work and broad knowledge base.
seein all these minis on the table, reminds of how many I've watched this year. Hope the next one will be just as great. Happy Holidays.
Absolutely wonderful segment. A real insight in2 how it all works.
oh my god b1m and formula one i love this
Favorite video so far, thanks for making it! Combines two passions of my life! Hope everyone enjoys the race!
Amazing working by everyone to make it happen 👍🏽💪🏽👍🏼👌🏽
I was thinking about the pit lane and garages yesterday, now I know how it's done. Brilliant video thanks very much for uploading it. 😀
Get in there B1M!
They also have to start protecting the apartments because Mazepin will be flying into them
This channel keeps getting better and better. I have been here since it only had less than 1000 subs.
This was awesome to see. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you B1M 👊
I love this channel. I’ve been following it for a while now and what a surprise while I’m watching some formula 1 content and that right before the race weekend at the Monaco grand prix I get this gem!!! Thank you!
That is amazing how they do this within three weeks time.
The temporary construction feats here are almost as amazing as the cars running the track.
2:24 I'm sorry 12 teams?
F3 has 12 teams
Awesome to see you made a video about this. I love F1 and I love engineering. Such a combo. Thanks!
Thisnis my favorite video on youtube ever.
One of the few channels I didn't regret subscribing
Massive F1 lover, I subscribed to you an hour ago and this is uploaded lol.
Haha, welcome on board!! Great timing!
I was lucky enough to be in Singapore when they were getting ready for their race. It was a few weeks prior but I befriended one o the top engineers and he walked us around some of the sights. The best part was the mechanics area and how they line up the cars. It was a great experience.
Definitely a bucket list event I'd love to attend.
very high quality video. thank you.
Amazing video again guys. Keep these going 👏
Thank you so much!!
This channel never fails to blow me away!
It is quite an incredible organizational Feat to have this prepared for each years race !
I've been there many times, but never had the chance to watch such amazing races
This is probably the best b1m vid that iv seen as I'm a f1 fan i knew it takes massive feet to construct the Monaco track but didn't realise the sheer scale
These videos are always incredible. Great information, great footage, yet not too long & overcrowded with useless info. Thanks to the B1M team who always produce these really interesting & educational works of art!
Not perfect needs some more research example 2:40. I’m semi new to f1 I’ve only been watching since 2012, but was there ever 12 teams. i know there was eleven but i don’t think there were twelve at least recently.
Amazing. My favourite Grand Prix venue.
yeah keep showing the same thing i over and over again will always make me come back to this channel.
1:06 - Green flag guy just casually walks in front of F1 car during a race.
Safety was a bit more of an afterthought in the 60s. Though to be fair to him he was the guy whos flag signified the start of the race.
@@vberl9573 You'd think it would have been more of a concern after the horrific 1955 Le Mans disaster.
@@Ozymandias1 doesn't matter how horrific the crash is if it isn't the same racing series it's pointless.
You'd be surprised how unsafety 50-80s f1 race was
-there we're no such thing as a survival cell (it's the part around the cockpit that is purposely made to be very durable (almost indestructible) just in case of a fatal crash) they only have roll cage and even then it's flimsy af
-there we're no pit limiter which means driver can enter and exit at full speed everytime they go to pit
-Race officials (like the one you're pointing at) can enter and exit the track whenever they please without needing to deploy safety car
-everytime a car is broken drivers are instructed to park the car on the side of the track and will be retrieved when the race is over, yes *when the race is over*
-protective/crash barriers are very unsafe and often used materials that are not fit to be a crash barriers in the first place
-safety car is only deployed when weather becomes a problem and when a *massive* crash is happening
-I could go on and on explaining how dangerous f1 was during those time periods but I suggest you watch about it on TH-cam or at least google it instead
@@Ozymandias1 Le Mans and F1 are different series. Even though it led to Mercedes pulling out of both Endurance racing and F1. The reason why people didn’t think too much about safety was because people assumed it just came with the territory. They had the mindset of ‘If you think it’s too dangerous then don’t race’.
It wasn’t until people like Jackie Stewart began pushing for change in the 60s and 70s that things began changing. The biggest safety advancement in Motorsport though was the introduction of Sid Watkins as the track doctor in the 70s.
Rules have very rarely changed due to events. They have changed due to how people react to those events. The issue with the wreck at Le Mans in 1955 was that they didn’t know how to prevent this in the future as a lot of the technology and track safety innovation had yet to be invented and until it had been invented, drivers and spectators simply accepted the risks involved.
I really love this channel, it opens you to the world of architecture, and the diversity in it, well done B1M ❤
Fan of F1 here. Did not know about this channel, but awesome content you have. Subscribed 👌
One more thing to add to the bucket list
Wow! F1 is here. And B1M made a great video about it 🏎
As soon as I read the title , I knew we are talking about the most difficult track of the F1 , Monaco.
An absolute masterpiece of a video F1 x B1M must be the greatest crossover I've seen
Very informative. Thanks for good work
it starts tomorrow! can't wait
? Nah it starts on friday
@@chrislfc2317 fp1 and fp2 are on Thursday for Monaco races.
@@chrislfc2317 nope the Thursday fp1 and fp2 for Monaco yuo aer wrong
Friday is for doing business or having a big piss up depending on who you ask.
I always love this channel. I am a Certified public accountant by profession but my heart leans more about structures, technology and history. This channel always caters my alter ego.
Remarkable work to get this happening
Porsche 918 sypder at 1:49 on the right
Being held on city streets, you can drive the track all year long and dream of being an F1 driver, though with traffic.
Just when I was about to go back sleep, B1M says “Not today, Mate!”
But Fr tho, this Channel is Awesome! Fully awake or tired, I’m a happy subscriber! 🔥💪🏽😎
"... one of its most picturesque cities."
Is that meant to be ironic?
It's Croydon-on-Sea, and most of the architecture makes the Whitgift Centre seem attractive. Look at 0:49, and mask out the sea. Is that array of concrete slabs picturesque?
I have watched the Monaco Grand Prix since I was a kid and got into slot car racing. Back then the cars weren’t as fast and narrower than todays cars. It amazes me that they still have it on the calendar. It is an amazing undertaking that Monaco goes through every year.
This video is the perfect mix of engineering and F1, both right at the top of my favourites list 👌🏻
One note: you mention 12 teams... there are 10 teams. Perhaps you included the medical team and FIA's race director and stewards crew?
