People forget his Williams days. Actual beast in the Williams, hope he has a great time at Alfa
I wasnt watching back then, but Williams were an actual mid tier team werent they? Bottas took podiums for the team?
@@arkangelgaming35 williams were the 3rd and 4th fastest cars between 2014-2016 and yet he got podiums and probably could've won for them
@@arkangelgaming35 Williams used to be best team too.
@@Bearical Yeah 30 years ago
@@Bearical I know that ha, I know they were world champions in the 80s and 90s. The BMW era was their best if I have that right.
they really had this video ready to go less than 20 minutes after the announcement!
They knew it earlier
Yup
@@shubhambhakuni9306 I didn't even know it was official when this video was recommended to me :D
They probably had it ready for years
True
Now he can actually race without a team constantly ordering him around.
plot twist: giovanazzi will be the team leader
@@horacio7465 yeah mate like what for giovanazzi getting drivers championship 🤣
You exaggerate the “ordering around”. He was fast but inconsistent. And he can’t mount a recovery drive after qualifying out of place or a penalty. Every other champion or champion to be can recover from last to a podium or even a win 🥇
It's going to take him a while to learn how to get his elbows out, I think.
@@ricky1231 well that kind of aged poorly.
It'd be very nice James connecting to the radio as we make fun of like "Valtteri, it's James..." but just to say he's grateful for all of these years he did put effort for the team.
Are you going be okay ? 😂 why don't you make enough stink about it so they do it for you. F1 does nothing but cater to these fans who can't even afford tickets 😂 so why not cater more to all you self centered babies who need instant gratification.
@@matthew-jy5jp are you feeling ok?
@@matthew-jy5jp Aww littol baby, did someone make you angry
@@matthew-jy5jp yea bro are you ok?
Valtteri doesnt like James so no
2019 Australia Valtteri was one of the most dominant drives of hybrid era.
How funny would it be if Bottas suddenly started winning every race now that he isn't having to fight for his Mercedes seat?
I wish he does
He has such an unnatural lack of aspiration that rather the opposite will happen. He will focus on being the utlimate wingman.
@@Kenjh71 Obviously its not going to happen. Red bull is the quickest car that is why its a wish
I hope he competes for 1st wigh new regs and russel dominates hamilton
Could happen, It has to happen
Now he’ll get his freedom. No more being no.2 and letting freaking Lewis taking no.1 always. Happy for you Valterri!
Bro he ain’t Lewis Hamilton and he is not George Russel
This exactly, the man deserved more respect from Mercedes than he got.
Would you like to live being suppressed or die with freedom
How about dominance of our lord and savior Antonio Maria Giovinazzi
Wouldn't have to be number 2 if he drove faster
For me 2019 bottas was the best.Wish you luck in the future porridge boss!
@utkarsh mehrotra Yeah mate
@@muhammadnabil413 And don't forget Turkey 2021
@@pizzalover1525 Talking about performance over the season
@@Tayoisdead I think the person we were replying to deleted their comment
You can just see his smile going away slowly every year that goes by...super excited that he will actually get treated like a person again.
Even now, he's a in a back-marker car but appears to be 10x as happy.
honestly very excited to see what he does with alfa, so used to seeing him on the backburner of merc it’ll be a welcome change to see him at a team that gives him more freedom
Not just more freedom but a mentor to however takes that second seat at Alfa next year.
@@drbadzer Bottas / Albon would be cool pairing :)
@@SininenVenom i would actually love that but albon probably wouldn’t leave red bull
I‘m mor excited of that fight between lewis and george
"Valtteri, ........ I mean, George, it's James"
Nah, just doesn't feel the same
I don't think George is gonna get in line like Bottas
@@GGoblin1 i hope he wont. Will be interesting to see if he does :)
@@Ivyticrea maybe in the first season, he'll have to learn the ways at mercedes a bit and not just him but everyone will have to get used to a totally new car.
@@niklnik1008 I don't know man, he already seemed used to the mercedes car in Sakhir..
@@niklnik1008 Nah, that's not the way to the championship. Look at those who have actually taken the championship, they didn't defer to anyone when joining a new team: Senna, Schumacher, Alonso, Hamilton, Vettel...even Rosberg finally learned this... you look out for yourself. You win races, you finish on the podium, the team automatically benefits.
Don't let them paint you in a Bottas shaped box George.
"Valtteri Bottas' Best Moments with Mercedes"
More like "Moments When Mercedes Actually Respected Bottas"
@@greenglass8779 checo is not going to threaten the top 3 with his pace and he is not going to get near max and bottas is easily better than checo
@@amithshastri2123 Maybe you're angry on Checo for this last race... But he did much more helping RB and Max, then what Bottas did this whole season. Me, as a Merc admirer, would definitely choose Checo, over Bottas any day. Facts... Anything important done by Bottas??? Nothing special to name... And bout' helping Lewis.... A hesitating personality... Checo never hesitates, and to add, he just cheers Max for winning. Does Bottas do that????? Hahhahaha
@@greenglass8779 well checo knows he can't beat max and bottas is quicker in qualifying and wheel to wheel compared to perez and perez lacks outright speed to threaten the top 3 and bottas has shown he can easily beat lewis on his day
@@amithshastri2123 Hahaha Bottas can beat Lewis????? Do you really watch f1????? I'm sorry, it's me. Bottas is a 10 times World Champion... A legend!
@@greenglass8779 when bottas is on song he has shown he can pretty easily beat lewis but that is very rare . I know for you as a lewis fan it is hard to digest the fact he can't win with a car which is not faster than the others and without bottas lewis would have definitely lost 17 and 18 titles
Bottas is a legend from other interactions, a pilot that even Valtteri does not find easy, who would let his colleague be the starter and you "co-" pilot.
Bottas deserves and deserves more value for the work he has been doing 💙
True.
What
the finish man was the best 2nd driver in F1 history. Mercedes and LH should thank him deeply for everything he did for the team and especially for Lewis during the last 5 years when the team win the two kind of title 5 times consecutively.
What about Barrichello?
Like best 2nd driver based on some statistics or....?
Barrichello is better in rain condition.
The best 2nd driver was Ronnie Peterson in 1978 for lotus
He absolutely beat Lewis by quite a margin in some races. He just wasn't as consistent. And was against one of the greatest. His achievements are overlooked by some. He still has chance though not like he's retiring.
merc didn't appreciate how obedient valterri was for years
He'll be remembered as one of the best wingmen ever, second only to Barichello. Oh no, he's second AGAIN!
Oof
Second behind Rubens ,second ahead of Webber
bruhh
"OH NO, HE'S LOST IT, HE'S OUT OF CONTROL!!"
I think Bottas was actually a bigger wingman than Barichello. The last year's proved that hard. The moment Hamilton got behind Bottas, he was immediately told to pull over.
So many amazing memories, and we're sure there are many more to come before the end of the season, too! 💙
Hello merc (i hope we can see valtteri win one last time with you guys at least)
You should let him win at least one more Grand Prix in a Mercedes car
Please send him off with the respect he deserves in the remaining season, for all the years he's given
Mercedes it's james
just don't do to Russell what you did to Bottas
His best moment was Sunday at the Dutch GP when with Max catching him
he ran wide at the Apex and Max was gone, and Hamilton was left wondering.
Brilliant.
He was an integral part of Mercedes dominance since 2017, a driver like him certainly deserves more respect and a better team environment......
He was a fairly decent 2nd driver. He's not consistent enough for being the top dog in a team with Hamilton. His race pace is too slow in general.
Still, Hamilton with Rosberg was superb.
@@disadadi8958 the man is incredibly consistent, what are you on about
What about Checo... Just driving for Max archieving and trying Max getting his best??? Checo really helped Max much more, then Bottas to Ham...
@@greenglass8779 Not really. Perez did nothing the last race, except performed poorly in qualifying, whereas Bottas tried to slow down Verstappen.
In Hungary Bottas took both RBs and Norris out single handedly in the first corner, virtually gifting Hamilton a free race win that was denied by the lousy strategy by Mercedes.
Yessss King latifi to Mercedes :), George should’ve been considered too NGL.
Our 👑 and 🐐
xD
Kid needs more time, Goatifi for 2022 world champion
Ragunathan should be paired with Valterri in Alfa. He doesn't get enough attention in the F1 world, unlike Antonio Giovanizzi, who gets too much screentime.
@@Nou-fo6pp battle between mazepin vs ragunathan will be legendary
2:16 imagine Bottas saying this after denying to give in to team orders
F1: Bottas’ best moments with Mercedes
Bottas in Monza: It’s not over yet!
Bottas finally won't listen again,
"Valtteri It's James."
Season is not done yet.
Valtteri: "So?"
Wish him the best he is the most genuine driver on the grid
I am more excited about rest of the season tho, imagine Bottas taking his revenge for all team orders in remaining races xD
i hope
It really hurts to see such a talent being suppressed to support other team mate. He deserved so much more at Mercedes.
Can somebody please do a highlight video of all the Mercedes Team Orders that were pushed down on to Bottas?
Isn’t there a time limit on TH-cam?
@@vectro4284 Yes 🤣
Hungary 2017, Germany 2018, Russia 2018, Singapore 2019, Russia 2019, Spain 2021, Great Britain 2021, Netherlands 2021. That's honestly not that much
"Valterri.. It's James" won't be there for him.. he can now complete the fastest lap too 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm waiting for the "Lewis It's James. George is faster so please let him through"
James: "Valterri it's James, allow Lewis to go past please."
Valtteri: "I'm driving for Alfa now." James "Copy that, on this lap please."
Well If Hamilton doesn’t win this season George is going to work for Lewis.
The fact they probably had this video prepared since like the start of the season is frightening.
Fun fact: valtteri bottas won more race at sochi then other tracks
He deserves more respect. We shouldn’t be so frustrated that he can’t match one of the greatest in history behind the wheel, rather appreciate how close he can get to him so many times. He’s gonna thrive at alfa
He would be closer more times if the team backed him as much as they backed Lewis, but that's never going to happen.
Yesterday breaking Hamilton fastest lap was his very best moment.
he didn't. he was told to abandon the fast lap and hamilton took fastest lap on the last lap.
@@apple_with_a_human_butt its james
If this was not a clickbait video this would be like 20 minutes of "valtierri, its james" 🤷♂️
My opinion Bottas is a far better driver than George Russel
Thank you VB. You are the man!
As a Alfa/Sauber-Fan I'm so glad he'll join us next year. It'll give us a huge boost for sure. But It's still sad that Kimi leaves :/
And what about his fastest lap yesterday? That was a huge highlight.
Merc controls FIA, they don't want proof of Bottas being held on Hamilton's leash.
"Valtteri, it's James!!"
Typical phrase from Bottas' team radio in his Mercedes' stance.
I wouldn't be surprised if he gets PTSD everytime he hears it
I can just imagine the smile one George's face eight now😁😁😁.
George, it's James...
@@mece66 I dont think it will be that way. Russel is more talented. Will be more like Rosberg instead of Bottas
Well this confirms everything...
its already been announced
Latifi in Mercedes 🥵
lol
De VRIES to Mercedes confirmed on Twitter
@@FerrarisMasterplan yes the goat 🐐
Popular Opinion: Every single one of y'all agrees these Valterrie moments (LIVE) made our Day:
To worm it may concern... Press F for Vallteri
He deserved better 😔
He had to act better on the track then a 7 times World Champion for that...
He was a great teammate and team player to the success of Mercedes’s dominance.
Naaaah' Checo in one year is really helping Max much more than what Bottas is doing. Yesterday, being rebellious for that fastest lap??? Do you think Checo would do the same to Max???? Nothing to say???? Hahhahhahaha
Btw, teammate??? He could not retain Max(that means.. Helping Mercedes, and Lewis)... Not a single lap... Is that helpful???? Checo is much more capable of retaining. Me, and you, know that. ;)
Hey at least george Russell can forfill his dream hopefully
2022: (Valtteri leading in an Alfa) "Valtteri, it's James. Let Lewis past you or we will ensure you will be replaced"
*poor Valtteri
I will feel bad for George if he is actually faster than Lewis in 2022, but the team favors Lewis and destroy George career. George need to go all out and beat Lewis from the start.
Such a humble and nice guy, love him
I'm gonna miss him at merc, even though george is a better option something about Valterri hit different
lets see if george is really the better option. He may be more competitive towards lewis which may be bad for the team
@@Ivyticrea 100% agree and especially since hamilton is on until 2023 it could be another Lewis-Nico Situation, but Toto sees george as the future and if he doesn't give George the run then he could go elsewhere like Esteban did
@@JP-ml3cs If you honestly believe that they will let an hamilton roberg happen they won't. 1 year contract deals. On top of that they will pull so many stops to make sure it does not happen. Russel is the new bottas:]
Honestly he deserves an apology from Mercedes .
Time for Bottas to throw the 'shield' he was given by Totto to protect Lewis right back at them next season.
Hopefully he gets a car that can compete.
You mean doing what every wingman does in F1. If Bottas had the pace of Lewis, he wouldn't need to be a shield. Regardless, Bottas is a top driver on the grid.
We need a "Every _Valtteri, it's James_ " compilation video
Welcome George
I dont know why but the overtake at 3:26 looks so funny :D
To whom it may concern: Bye Bye
But honestly I hope he will find some rest and a supportive team in Alfa Romeo next year
As an underdog fan this guy is my favorite driver. Glad he still has quali records to remind Mercedes of their years of mistakes now.
Goodbye, Valtteri Bottas. You are amazing, where did you go❤️❤️💝💝💕💕♥️♥️
Let this season end ffs 😂. For how long have you had this video prepared lol
George: "hippity hoppity your seat is my property"
Great to watch with a cup of coffee!
1:34 jännittävä
Would been funny if this was a compilation of "Valterri it's James"
I have enjoy looking at best moments with Valtteri Bottas with Mercedes.
He was to Mercedes what Rubens Barrichello was to Ferrari, Schumacher and Hamilton got all the accolades, these two men helped them get there selflessly. Anytime, they looked out for themselves, the teams were ruthless in showing them their place.
Everyone remembers the alphas, never the betas. Their own fault for being betas.
Valtteri it’s James…. No more 😭
now GEORGE ITS JAMES
“George, it’s James”
I think his time in Alfa is going to be a transitional period for him. I bet a top team will pick him up in the future as their number 1.
Can we please get a compilation of every savage Bottas radio moment?
Where is Valtteri, it's James? Don't try to beat the fastest lap
really wish he could’ve been a champ, he earned that Merc seat in 2017.
Best persona in a row with Rai
Hope he wins one last time with Merc, maybe even while disobeying team orders.
Valteri is very underrated. Not because of him driven for Mercedes, but because he has been a proven driver. The pressure he had to endure and make certain sacrifices for the team. Hats off. And please argue with me!!! Lol
One of the Best and one of my favorites on the F1 scene, fierce and safe in a driver!
Thanks for everything bottas
All the best for the future 👌💯🍻
Great dirver and great team player~! Biggest of respect~!
'He will always be a member of the Mercedes family,' says Wolff as Bottas announces his decision to Alfa Romeo.
At least Bottas doesn´t need to listen to team orders for the rest of the season anymore
Seems like a great guy to hang around with
Thank you, Valtteri. We love you.
This should just be a compilation of him letting Lewis through and holding up everyone else.
Alternate title: Best of "Valtteri, Its James" compilation throughout the seasons
F1 drive to survive takes a whole month for 1 race episode
In 20 mins after the announcement, they have a video with the best moments for Valtteri
Drive to survive is Netflix… this is the official formula 1 media.
5 years summed up in 4:40 doesn’t do him justice.
How come the Spa 2021 race highlights are longer then this video?
The behave of mercedes with Bottas of yesterday's Dutch gp astounded me hard. It was overly bold than previous.
Wish him all the best 💕
2:21
for those snowflakes who keep saying that Bottas is not fast enough compare to Hamilton
Bottas is great race driver, if not earlier, at least last race prove it. He has helped Lewis and Mercedes more than they like to admit, or co-pilot should.
Really excited to see what happens in next season
Whatever you might say about his racing skills, but he is a very rare breed of drivers who has constantly put the team and its harmony above themselves and that takes some serious strength of character.
If he is leaving Mercedes hope he returns to Williams and maybe to fix himself. He is championship material
He’s going to Alfa
But he is already confirmed in Alfa so...
Confirmed at Alfa Romeo
wow this one was already finished, ready to upload
So happy for him. Valtteri is an excellent driver. Excited for his stint in Alfa.
I feel so sad for Valtteri he was in a very toxic environment being the fastest car but not being allowed to drive the fastest
Didn't expect that video to be so long
Sad but my best wishes to him, hope he does well In Alfa Romeo and has a great stint there.
the 1 best moment: entertaining fans to fail mercedes by stealing fastest lap from lewis
Man... that was golden 😀 I almost fell off from my seat when he took it 😆
Couthard - "But what about Loouises best moments when Valtteri was with mercedes?????"
He will forever be one of the greatest damage limitation drivers
Hope he has a gret rest of his carrer he has the talent and the ace and he van do it.I hope Alfa have a competitive car next season
this dude reminds me of coulthard
a great driver on his own right but always overshadowed by an ever greater teammate
Lewis owes him for his titles. Imagine a team mate who doesnt settle to play as number 2
We’ve seen it. His name was Nico Rosberg. Lewis still won 2 titles
@@metrofilmer8894 They have the fastest car in the earlier stage of the new era. Other competitors still have lots to catch up. When it became more competitive, you need a number 2 to help u out a bit when circumstances requires.
find yourself someone who looks at you the way Lewis looks at Valtteri at 3:48
