“He’s won 5 championships, just like yourself”
Weird to hear this in 2020, after watching him win his 7th
even weirder, knowing George Russel, said to be a future world champion, will drive his car this weekend
@@lucif3r_op920 yeah
@@lucif3r_op920 He finished 9th😔

It's crazy how a car from the 50s still looks kinda futuristic
Fangio was crafted of steel-discipline and flawless concentration, he was 40 when he won his first F1 World Championship. His last race at The Nürbergring was a definitive and superlative example of what an F1 driver aims to be. His like was not seen before his era and never seen again.
ihopetowin, I agree....A time when even an old man can dominate F1 yep those ridiculous days will never happen again!
when men were men. They also box and smoke at the same time lol
Fangio won all his titles driving to different team. So, you can ask yourself, what's the best car? The one that Fangio drive. He was a truly master, the best of all times.
@@Moggy471 Beautiful story! I didn't know it by the way. Thank you!
He purposefully moved to the team he thought would have the best car.
@@kb5509 At that time the improvement from one year to another were minimum, so, still the best of all times. Fangio was not only a great driver, but an excellent mechanic, that makes a huge difference, he feelt every car, knew how to put a perfect setup and was able predict if the car could start to fail even before than any other pilot could notice.
Yea incredible but he won 2 titles with Mercedes and the other 3 with 3 different teams.
@@nicolas_clark Yes, this, both the driving and the perfect test driver for the team!
Fangio drove and beat Stirling Moss at the TOP of Stirlings career, while Fangio was in his 40'ties - In totally equal cars.
Fangio got 5 titles in just 7 seasons. Don't think that will ever happen again.
Runner up twice too! Unbelievable success rate. He adapted to and won the championship in the first year in just about every new car he switched to. Now that's natural driving talent.
Chris Fleming I thought it was only six seasons? And he came runner up in the one he didn't win?
Chris Fleming and is the third oldest F1 driver when he retired ever
Schumacher had 5 in 5
GARY Blend Schumacher had 7 in 17
This car still looks modern even today.
Unbelievable german enginering right here
The race cars of this era were just the most beautiful. The smoothness of its curves - amazing.
This body only ran on autodromes like Monza, with high banked loop.There is an open wheel version which gets most attention in history and Mercedes lore.
It also ran at Silverstone, but Fangio had a miserable race, according to Fangio himself "I kept hitting the drums". By that, he meant that he can't really locate where the apex is because of the all-enveloping streamliner body and as a result, he kept hitting the concrete-filled oil drums that mark the circuit back then, so while he started on pole, he finished in 4th place. Try doing that in today's cars... hitting oil drums in search for the corner apex...
New helmet looks so silly in that car 😅
Lol
*Yep Cloth Cap & Goggles much more appropriate for the Era*
you silly
Looks like a modern racing game mod
The pther guy used the oldies ne to look good in the car... probably they told to use the same one and he was like”no no no my satety is more important “
proud to be argentinian, proud to be F1 fan.
Má vale perro

I thought you'd hate anything British
@@Adam-zh4hm Why would I hate two people who recognize the best driver of all time?
@@manuelarregui I was talking about the sport
Probably faster than the Williams
Robert completed a mission impossible getting a point
:D
@Izumi Culture ehm...you know that Mclaren finished the race in hungary in the top 10?
@@nieleda2561 and you know that he was making a joke? Mclaren-Honda doesn't exist anymore, Mclaren is running Renault engines this season. It is Mclaren-Renault that is winning points again. not Mclaren-Honda
@@lunasilvermoon2283 no i didn't know that...when i first saw the comment i've only read mclaren,my fault.
Still faster than Williams getting to the Racing Point
Would’ve loved to see Fangio in a 2019 Mercedes.
He was racing in his 40s. And was very unfit. F1 back then was not as professional. Even stroll would swallow him up
Toro Loco Thanks. I’d like to see Fangio in his youth race now. If he was racing today he would of course get as fit as all the rest of them.
@@TheTororist Based on what ? The guy was racing in an era when cars had no power steering, no power brakes, no anything. Hell changing gears required fuckload of effort. In Races that lasted lot longer then todays. Drivers also didn't have the entourages of staff and same living conditions on season like todays.
I'd say Fangio and pretty much any other drivers of said era were pretty fucking fit.
@Claudio Cadalço Investimento Imobiliário im not questioning their courage but if you think racing drivers even 30 years ago can compete with these kids nowadays trained since they were toddlers then you're being naive. Fitness and professionalism has only increased. doctors and princes used to enter grand prixs just because they could afford it back in the 50s. middle aged men with little training who would be embarrassed on a circuit nowadays, let alone the massive confusion due to the infinite dials and buttons controlling brake bias, engine modes etc
@Claudio Cadalço Investimento Imobiliário so you're telling me they were as fit as todays drivers? smoking cigarettes at the paddock just before the race and such? have you seen fangios pics? im not saying i could, but a current driver sure can. they drove on the edge, no doubt, but you're joking if you say you can compare their exercise regiment to todays pilots
Name a Formula one driver who won 5 championships with 4 different manufacturers now that's a superb driver.
that's like Walter Röhrl winning the Rallye Monte Carlo 4 times with 4 different cars, against superior competition.
@@TheWolvesCurse both legends of their eras
It was a different era. Back then it was more who had more balls than skill. The man was fearless, but you can’t compare to drivers later on. There is a great argument to say Niki was the best driver, survived a crash he shouldn’t have and within weeks he comes back bleeding and comes 4th. Almost wins the championship and dominates following year, retires and comes back to win another one. Andretti and Graham Hill didn’t only win F1 championships, but did so in plenty of other series. Ascari was a champ on 4 and 2 wheels. Jack Brabham built his own car and won a championship in it, and even made fun of his age at the time. Hamilton is also an amazing talent behind the wheel, and not so much in front of a microphone, but definitely worthy of being in the goat talk. He had the measure of FA in his rookie year, was totally cool to have Button in the team as a world champ, and I believe him that he is open to having Max in his team. That’s what makes F1 great! So many great characters :)
No disrespect to Fangio, but back then drivers normally signed 1 year contracts. He was a good driver, but was also savvy enough to sign for the team that would likely provide the better car for the following year
Fangio... Simply the all time best... The person who Ayrton Senna admired... The same as Nigel Mansel...
Fangio orgullo argentino 🇦🇷
Fangio was a visionary: he studied the tracks, walking them to observe the type of surface, irregularities, and more. Additionally, he possessed extensive mechanical knowledge, having worked in that field when he was young, which allowed him to provide precise instructions to his mechanics. He prepared himself physically, within the limitations of the time, but above all, he possessed exceptional mental strength. He once recounted a race where a hose broke, causing oil to drip onto his leg. Despite the freezing cold, he persevered until the race was over.
I'm no Hamilton fan, but videos like this bring a tear to my eye. The history of Formula 1 is rich and beautiful, and I hope it stays that way.
@ArianOriginal21 I guess you could say so are the people of the time(dead I mean)... Life must go on. It wasn't perfect back then and it isn't perfect now. People always talk of the good side because that's what we like to remember. No matter the hate right now... in 2050 people will look back and see the good... this f1 will also be missed.
@ArianOriginal21 F1 evolves, and we are constantly reminded of how it's evolved. Back then things evolved quickly and changed all the time so newer things would be seen more often but now as we push to the pinnacle of technology is the sport we see the smaller changes make all the difference. F1 is alive an well, the racing is incredible and the speed is just phenomenal you should get yourself to one to experience the speed and then come back and comment
Now if only Mercedes would put together a lookalike car rather than a priceless heirloom so that Hamilton and Brundle could chuck it around in a 4 wheel drift like Fangio and Moss used too
TheMightyAntar it is just not possible to make such a beautiful car again
Crusader Juan Are you fucking kidding? We have the knowledge from that time, along with literally more artists, designers and engineers, along with more precise engineering, fabricating, and amazingly strong lightweight materials. We indeed can build this easily AND vastly improve upon it. Your statement is ridiculous.
@@DoctorShocktor thats not actually true the tools and skills for making this car can be lost. Look at the saturn V rockets, they were build to go to the moon and now that we use more modern ways of manufacturing it became impossible to even make an acurate replica of those rockets could be the same with cars like these (sorry for the bad english)
A race car, old or new is meant to be driven from time to time, not to be "a priceless heirloom" or a glorified chachka sitting in a museum to be looked at only.
Of course we can do it again. Businesses don't want to retool factories, pay or find experts to relearn bespoke hand-crafted machinery. Because there isn't a market for it anymore. The safety regulations started costing too much versus the labour of making it happen. The average jane and joe couldn't afford anything better than a rusted out Lancia and needed family cars that don't throw the kids out when you over-accelerate with one back wheel on a slippery surface. Competition and mass production ends up being a massive blow.
But...
I bet if the dedication, tools and buyer market was largely prominent then we would see beautiful cars again being made again.
Que orgullo fangio, que leyenda de piloto, saludos desde Argentina
mas q leyenda ...fue es y sera el mejor d todos , de todos los tiempos.....y manejando la flecha de plata.
Hamilton already drove his car with Fangio's teammate and British racing legend Sir Stirling Moss (around a banked circuit).
Is that so Where ?
@A Sharaawy just search for Hamilton and Sterling Moss
The big No-No when making clips of old race cars. Putting music over the engine sound... *sigh. Apart from that, very enjoyable
I didn't mind it on this video, the music was much more respectful than what people like Red Bull do. You could still hear the brutal growl of the engine over the light and delicate violins
And of course it's the sosososo typical rolling-piano-with-reverb-over-strings Korg keyboard crap.
Timeless classic. Fantastic drivers. Brilliant video.
Brundle: "It sounds amazing"
The audio editor: "Let's put music and old commentary over the parts where they're driving so nobody can listen!"
You’re right: the editing is a disaster! That engine would have made the best background music!
Fangio 🇦🇷FANTASTIC !!!👏👏👏👏
Corrio 51
Gano 24
Podios 35
Casi 50% de efectividad !!!
nunca vi correr a Fangio pero el respeto que le tengo es mucho
Que viva la Argentina
Fangio no era argentino, era italiano
@@youtuytumaddrre jajaja nada que ver
@@youtuytumaddrre El padre era italiano el nació y se crio en argentina
@@constanzavera2022 siempre los Argentinos dicen que los negros de Francia no son europeos, con esto es lo mismo.
"This is the perk of the job...." How many others would love the ordinary day job part of being an F1 driver!!
Different world mate
No perspective on peasant life
One of the most successful sportsman and F1 driver the works has ever seen - films in portrait....
Vespertide Waking its for instagram but yeah… big Oof
@@northgen1062 and this is where I now get old and irrelevant! I don't have insta and didn't know filming like this was a thing!
@@camangoo It's not, mentally disabled people is unable to rotate their phones 90º. So, they became instagramers.
I always enjoy listening to Martin and Lewis' conversations. To me, they both seem to have a healthy respect for one another.
Fangio, Hamilton and Sena the greatest of all time
Not Hamiltom
Hamilton? hahahahahahahaha
Rip both fangio and senna
If you dont know fangio died from i think pneumonia
Schumacher too
Imagine saying a man who has won 6 world championships isnt a greatest of all time
The video, that Fangio is testing a Masserati in a t-shirt and caquis, is incredible
2:10. "the sound is incredible". I wish we could hear it over the music.
Isn't the internet brilliant - thanks to all who brought us this
Martin Brundle is the luckiest guy ever. He's driven so many F1 cars, and many other cars as well.
Yash Nayak hes also a le mans winner.
So unlucky. Probably the best driver never to win a Formula 1 race.
Fangio the best of history (f1) .
Juan Manuel fangio el mejor piloto de todos los tiempos... Ídolo absoluto
Junto con Ayrton Senna de seguro son los conductores oficiales de Dios
The engine sounds sexy, no music next time during that beautiful sound 😂
Well done everyone on this project. Great little piece of film. I truly enjoyed it. Thanks to Lewis and Martin, humble champions.
That thing is absolutely beautiful. Love how streamlined the bodywork is.
By far Lewis's beat trait in recent years...his ability to appreciate what's going on in the moment!
Epic! Lewis Hamilton one of the Greatest Formula Drivers alive and at this moment driving, Juan Manuel Fangio closed-Wheel W196 Monoposto was a difficult car to drive but was ahead of its time. Juan Manuel drove for racing teams, Afla Romeo, Maserati, Mercedes of Course, Ferrari. He had five championships in the years, (1951) (1954) (1955)(1956)(1957) He won the World Championship Of Drivers five times a record that stood for 46 years until beaten by Michael Schumacher, a feat that has not been repeated. Just Amazing!
As a Ferrari fan, I cannot avoid to recognise the beauty of this car and the charming that it brings... It really is astonishing when you think about it... I'm amazed.
By the way, does anybody know the background music? It fits so well with that car and I need to know what's it called :)
Sure! Luca D'Alberto - Wait For Me :)
@@julienhyg thank you very much! :)
Sólo fangio podía conducir está locura a la velocidad q lo hacía...sin seguridad de ningún tipo ...solo fangio ....unico
Certainly one of the most beautiful Mercedes ever.
The legendary Silver Arrow, the true one.
Lovely to see Lewis just geek out at driving this piece of work. No Mr. Cool just the kid who fell in love with fast cars and racing.
Una leyenda Juan Manuel Fangio !!!!❤️
Awesome car, sounds amazing. too bad the video was ruined by the classic music. So frustrating
Who ever said that only italian designers could make beautiful cars. This is even better than most Alfa, Lancia or Bugatti. Not to mention the sound of makes.
Harry Meijer Bugatti is french not italian
PowerFuel created by an Italian
Fangio is the best of all time
Fangio will always be the best following by Senna.
Fangio's era: Suidical cars and tracks, the car didn't do anything for you, it was all in the driver.
That sais it all
Lol no
@@7Criska Lol YES
Both fangio and senna said Jim Clark was the greatest. I think they would know more than us about these things. Myself I put Clark slightly above senna but not sure about fangio.
Fangio the master. Can wait for Lewis to stamp his own history and win 8 F1 championships. That old Mercedes is beautiful. Back in Fangios’ day drivers were also accomplished mechanics in their own right tinkering and adjusting.
Fangio was a great driver, Hamilton is a great driver in these times and here in Argentina there was another fantastic driver: Carlos Reutemann. Reutemann could be champion and different circumstances don t let him to be but he was a marvelous F1 driver. To compete against tremendous marvelous drivers like Nikki Lauda, Petterson, Andretti, Pironi, Piquet, Prost, Fittipaldi, Villeneuve, Alan Jones and to be too much times in the principal positions in different circuits and having been driver in Brabham, Ferrari, Lotus and Williams is impossible for me to forget him.
That car is beautiful it looks amazing with all the curves
Nice to see respect paid from one Champion to a another.
That car is as they said in the video stunning and beautiful
Excelente vídeo,mís saludos desde Argentina 🖖🇦🇷❗
I have so much respect for this man, honestly. I don’t care how much people hate him, he’s a phenomenal driver. He wouldn’t be where he is if he wasn’t. It’s just because of repetition and domination people have stated to dislike him. And I’ve gotta say, undefeated talent is no fun, but you can’t deny it’s uniqueness, and this is coming from a diehard Vettle fan.
would be interesting to get some lap times with any existing circuits from that time to see driver difference of the past with today.
Cut out the stupid music, we want to hear the roar of the car, if we wanted to hear classical music we would go to the opera.
Agreed. I never understand why everyone does this.
The sound is a precious part of the experience. As soon as the engine starts running, the music should take a back seat.
it's for building drama or some tv shit like that .... they learn that in school and do it without thinking about it ....
Its not bad it adds to the atmosphere. This is a documentary type video not Vehicle ASMR.
I couldn’t agree more! I can’t believe that the person who edited this shit pile video together has any idea what somebody who is interested in racing would like. It’s like taking a giant piece of duct tape and putting it over the Mona Lisa smile.🤐🤢🤮🥴🤔It just doesn’t make sense.
Neither of them are driving the car at WOT. It's an heirloom.
Sensational! Amazing and so beautiful!! Thanks for posting!!!
The progression of F1 is insane
Search "Turismo Carretera" is the oldest competition in Argentina,fangio is a legend here
It is a work of art and Lewis was humbled by how good JMF was a dress shirt no gloves and a wooden helmet at 200 mph.
200mph hahahahahaha no mate, you need to check those speeds again
The car look superb, classy, amazing.
grande lewis como se divierte con esa belleza plateada. hermoso vid
I love how respectful Lewis is towards history. The younger drivers like Max (even though I am a big fan of him), don't know what this means. I believe Max once was clueless when he was asked about heel and toe downshifting.
Johan van der Velde Hamilton is like 10 years older than max so its expected
I would even love to own a replica the lines are so beautiful! I wonder has someone built a replica..?
It makes me sad about when people say who is the greatest. Fangio, in his era. Hill and Stewart in their era. Mansell, Senna, Hill in their era. Schumacher in his era. Vettel in his era. It comes down to the era. Now its Hamiltons era, without a doubt. Someone will come along and surpass Hamilton for sure. Its all about eras.
well put
True.. Very True
Jim Clark?
@@aydankhaliq2967 definitely
Verstappen
Now do Pastor Maldonado driving Jim Clark's Lotus 49
A work of art is what this car was, if people still get excited seeing this in the 21st century, can't imagine the excitement when it was unveiled in 1954 at the race at Reims.
One day. The future will look back at our cars. With wide smiles and nostalgia for an era they were never a part of.
A legend drives a legend’s car
Lewises helmet is really pretty i never noticed 🧐.
But it looks funky in this car haha
Thank you for all you do behind the wheel, Lewis Hamilton! Same to the entire Mercedes F1 team and family!
I want a model of that car, just to look at every beautiful angle myself :D
I love it, that he's enjoying it, as anybody of car enthusiasts would do!!!😁👍
*Go **-Forest-** Lewis Go - this year you can achieve 6 World Championships ! You Can Do it.*
I was just watching the '57 championship! Fantastic drivers, losing Ascari a year earlier must've taken a toll.
The most beautiful race car ever created!❤️❤️❤️❤️
This car is just... beautiful....
Grateful to have seen Micheal.....Fernando........Sebastian.......and now......... Lewis is...... a Champion
At first glance. I thought it looked the like Speed Racers Mach 5. I wonder if this car gave them the idea for the Mach 5. It's a great looking car.
What a beautiful piece of engineering

Vertical video?
Come on now Lewis.
Probably an instagram story so vertical makes sense.
This car is so amazing unbelievable if you think about that the people fought on track with 150mp/h
It sounds so good.. magical.
Se suben a ese auto y ahi se nota que clase de pilotos son. No saben manejar como lo hacía Juan Manuel Fangio. El mas grande de todos!
Que enorme desafío es ganar campeonatos en la f1...solo tres tipos tienen 5 o más campeonatos...en casi 70 años...congratulations Lewis!! 👍👍
I like lewis' anglo-american accent mashup
Merc should make an exact replica and race it at goodwood revival and silverstone classic etc. That would be good for the classic motorsport industry.
That is one beautiful car. Does anyone know if there is a model of it available?
Hermoso el "Flecha de Plata"
He is so lucky, he has been drivin Ayrton's MP4/ 4, Juan W196
When they say that Hamilton had more titles, or Shummy, remember that Fangio got 5 titles with 4 different brands, nobody does that, because it is clear that he was the winner, not the car.
Victor Lugones, Mate he always jumped into the best car, this is common knowledge
SAD HATER
Iconic drivers and cars looking into the future while driving history. mobeleash
why would you put Music over the video?? Insane???
The most beautiful looking coffin ever built.
Great video apart from the music! We want to hear the car
L.Hamilton, pilotando f1 do Fangio. Mostrou ser o grande piloto, adaptou-se ao carro com tranquilidade ou seja é só treinar.
