Malaysia 2009. Monsoon weather, Massa wanting the white visor and Raikkonen having ice cream. Remember watching that one live. Was 11 years old and just getting into the sport at the time following Hamilton's title win in 2008 and the incredible Brawn GP story that was currently unfolding.
Dude, sounds like we've lived the same Formula One journey haha! Exact same for me, first started watching in 2008, was 11 during the 09 Malaysian GP 😅
The 1955 Argentine GP was also notoriously hot- So hot that a grand total of 2, yes, 2 drivers were able to complete the race without another driver taking over for them while they rested. Also, you missed the hailstorm at the end of the 1975 British grand prix which took out most of the field
Those 2 drivers where Juan Manuel Fangio, who won the race from 3rd, and Roberto Mieres, who came 5th after starting the race from 16th. And Fangio got severe burns on his legs as his legs were rubbing against the chassis of his Mercedes W196, when track temperatures were as high as 57 ⁰C (135 ⁰F). They were so severe that it took 3 months to heal.
@@slender_04f14 back then, drivers subbed out during pit stops occasionally. Only two drivers completed the entire race without being replaced. More than 2 people still finished.
2000 German GP, where a disgruntled Mercedes employee was walking along the track and the 2003 British GP, where some priest carrying some messages from the Bible was running straight into the cars come to mind. Incidentally, both races were won by Rubens Barrichello for Ferrari.
Did a spring kart race and it snowed! Was tons of fun in slicks! My fingers had a different opinion . Took a good 15 minutes of full heat in cars before fingers thawed out enough to undo helmet ! Thankfully it did not stick to the track ! Had to lift visor for one right turn then wipe before got to end of front straight! Have no idea how I kept kart on track ! Once your private bits soaked then the misery began ! Classic case of shrinkage that day !!😀
Malaysia 2001 was also a proper monsoon, drivers spinning off everywhere. It also apparently snowed at Imola in 2001 during Friday practice, but not heavily.
All the drivers in Japan 2007 deserve a medal. Despite the safety car periods and the wet conditions they completed the full race distance within the 2hr time limit. The following year which had no rain or safety cars took 90 minutes
RoadhogTime13 if someone makes a smart gamble and is fast enough then it could spice things up or contact between ham and ver but ham might be too fast
I was there at COTA 2015 I must say the rain made it amazing we got to go down to the pits and see the drivers and cars, then we got a great race Sunday.
The f1 Belgium Grand Prix for this year was suspended thanks to heavy rain that made it impossible for the race to go ahead and it was 30 years since f1 had a really short race since Australia 1991
Conditions were not that that bad at all that Sunday. We have seen racing in much worse conditions. What killed Jules Bianchi wasn't racing in wet conditions but the entire sport not respecting the extra hazards of wet racing and slowing down significantly under double waved yellows, with a recovery vehicle trackside. All the drivers did it for years unpunished, this kind of accident was just waiting to happen... He paid the ultimate price for something every driver did, because they were never reprimanded for it. It could have been even worse had his car hit the marshals. One was very lucky he had good reaction time and he leaped away from Sutil's suspended car, which then crashed back down to the ground Not blaming Jules, he was racing, just like everyone else...the system itself allowed it to happen.
Double Bubble Disco Queen honestly, adrian sutil hitting the tractor at the nurburgring in 2007 should’ve been a clear indication on how much worse it could’ve been.
@@samcastles9091 I'm not sure it was him, but doesn't matter...that even happened with a safety car and in even worse conditions with cars skating off track everywhere. Japan 2014 was nowhere near as bad conditions, the recovery truck just 10-15 seconds later would have successfully finished the job...they are very good at recovering vehicles at Suzuka, impressive efficiency. So I understand why race control didn't deploy the safety car for a 2 minute job...only slightly longer than one lap around. They relied on drivers following the flag rules but the FIA had undermined them so much they became meaningless. I miss Jules, he was such a nice, sweet guy. Got his autograph at Silverstone that year, he was shy but very engaging and kind with fans. I genuinely believe he would have become a World Champion one day too.
Malaysia 2009. Kimi famously grabbing himself an ice cream, and the race was called off halfway through due to fading light. Canada 2011. Produced arguably the greatest GP of all time and went down in history as the longest ever race.
Well equipped, highly skilled and motivated people in a large group with fuck all to do and a lot of time to kill? Might as well make something for a laugh.
You mentioned rain at Fuji but didn't think to mention the 1976 race? The championship deciding race was under threat, but went ahead in heavy rain because it was one of the first races that was being shown across the world live on TV, and the organisers felt pressured to get it on. Niki Lauda decided to pull out after a lap due to the danger, handing James Hunt the chance to finish third or better to win the championship, which he duly did, although not without drama later on after having to stop for fresh tyres.
I live in this region of Canada (not Montreal, Ontario side, up the river farther), let me tell you, that type of rain was/is not normal. like at all. if you remember, the only time it really rains like that is when its a thunderstorm. Which means it would pass in about 15 -30 mins...
The 2021 Olympics showed just how wet it can be at Fuji Speedway. They did all the road cycling there and you couldn't see more than 10 yards ahead for how heavy the rain was.
I'm missing Monaco 1950 (freak wave), Argentina 1955 (extreme heat) and Fuji 1976 (title deciding monsoon). Not really weather related, but nevertheless ... a glorious sunny spring day in Monte Carlo, 1981, and the tunnel is flooded.
Perfect Just what I needed after this day to make it a bit better. Formula video + listening to the music I like (Delta Parole, Metallica and other) make me feel the speed and excitement!
Oh, c'mon! We already know for sure how's gonna be this weekend. No matter if the weather forecast says that a biblical deluge is 2000% guaranteed on Sunday, one hour before the start of the race the skies will open, the sun will shine shinier than ever and dry the circuit... And we're gonna get a dry race.

Felipe baby! Stay cool!
I hate to be that guy, but other than Kimi’s ice cream and ‘Felipe Baby stay cool!’ What other memorable moments of Malaysia 2009 were there?

Perhaps its because it was the last race to have been stopped midway through a race?
