Pre qualifying would be unthinkable in today's racing. Its amazing that you had these teams that have barely a shoestring budget attempting to "qualify" to just participate in the first practice sessions, with terrible engines, heavy cars that barely ran and less total team members than the top teams had in their catering department. Pre qualifying really showed the huge chasm between the top teams and the ones with hope and nothing else.
But there was a certain romance to the old days. The idea that you could buy a second hand f1 car and attempt to win your local grand prix. I know that's a bit before this but these guys represent the last vestiges of that era. The enthusiastic amateurs trying to hang with Ferrari
Danke für dieses schöne Stück Formel 1 Geschichte, find es genial, mal die damaligen kleinen Teams zu sehen, die mit Leidenschaft und Herzblut um das Weiterkommen gekämpft haben. Und ich vermisse diese Zeiten, wo noch nicht alles so perfekt, steril und abgegrenzt war, das war noch Formel 1 zum Anfassen.
It is a shame historic F1 racing only really covers cars up to the mid 80’s, I’d love to see them out racing. The pre qualifying drivers and team had great tenacity that I have always admired.
No one misses Pre-Qualifying but we don't have much loveable underdog teams anymore. The closest we have now is probably Racing Point and Toro Rosso and those teams came from other loveable underdog teams
@@hbbean5894 If you only watch 1989, I would agree. But they went on and improved. The V12 did better, was good for some points. And with the Judd build V10 they had 2 podium finishes, so please show a little bit more respect. Honda, Renault and Ferrari each burned more then 100 Mio Dollars every year, this for the engine alone! So no wonder that they were better. It's the waste of money that ruined the sport until today.
bad days for german drivers... Winkelhock, Schneider and Weidler suffering with them racing cars... but soon (1991) a guy named Michael Schumacher would appear in F1... and superb performance for Brabham cars, Tarquini in AGS and Raphanel in the Coloni in this weekend
That's because the 80's and early 90's F1 was unpredictable thanks to the technical gremlins most teams had. Or just look at March 1990: in Mexico both cars failed to qualify and just one race later they drove on P1 and P2 for most of the race (until Gugelmins March broke down and Prost overtook Capelli in the last reamining laps). Most teams got more professional in the 90's and this in turn drove the costs up and ruined the coincidence factor
In the early 2000’s I raced KT100 in a Top Kart. My team name (with my son in a twin kart) was “Shoe string racing”. Funny, many of these teams were running a shoe string budget!
Amazing video, thank you very much! By the way, how they could allow to race such a dangerous car like at 7:49?! WTF, not even a proper roll-bar? Seriously? That would be totally out of mind, even my mid-1990s standars. Astonishing how some cars where so unsafe even by the late 80s.
shame its in german, a 14 min vid dedicated to pre qualifying and i cant understand it! its a shame that only a few people like us here actually care about these cars. would love to have heard what wiedler and schneider were saying.
Oh yeah, sad he hadn´t had the chance to drive for a big team in formula one, but hey, he is a Le Mans winner ( together with Volker Weidler, which was also a driver in this pre qualifying). :-D
? Brundle would have finished 3rd in this race without a car issue that made him lose a lap in the pit stop. And his team mate DID finish 3rd. They were only in the pre quali because the team missed 1988, they were out of it by the mid season shake up, as was Minardi. You forget how slow old F1 cars were... Brundle in the MAIN QUALIFYING was FOURTH ON THE GRID!
The real heroes of that wonderful era in F1: manual gear shifts with one hand on steering through Monaco ! - what balls of steel and skills to match.

+Anthony Kernich Yes but Brundle ran as high as 3rd in the race from Pre-Qualifying. Fuck I miss those days.
that's because brabham missed 1988
yeah... after qualifying 4th...

all beautiful cars,real formula 1

Great f1 days ,underdogs with dreams of making it to qualifying proper.There were some talented drivers in prequalifying .
Mermão, pilotar carro Manual em Mônaco foi para poucos. Vencer, para os ícones.
Aguri Suzuki, aka what a LEGEND!
Some great footage of those underdog late 80's teams on the streets of Monte Carlo.
Brabham ,Osella ,Onyx ,Zakspeed those were the days now its not the same .

those were the days oh how i long to go back there
This is a brilliant video, be great if some of the 1990 and 1992 sessions were made available.
1989年のブラバムの二人、モデナとブランデル。両方ともヘルメットがすごいシンプルなデザインで好き。もっと色付けたいとか思わなかったのかな？
I love the look of that zakspeed, shame that they only qualified twice and a shame that it had a Yamaha engine
Yamaha were a pathetic joke in f1. One of the worst pieces of junk ever to sit on an f1 grid.
@RoadhogTime13 They were pretty damn bad in 1988 when they were failing to qualify every other week (or most weeks).
1994 Yamaha were decent
@@andregoncalves9271 but prepared by Judd and rebranded by Yamaha.

2000, the 50th anniversary year of the F1 championship, and almost every car ‘s liveries are the old national racing colors. Very cool to see.
I'm glad that you covered all the top teams from 89.

3:08 Emperor Palpatine and Anakin Skywalker
Lmao
What more is that some of these cars grasped a podium finish (Brabham - Onyx)

It wasn't Joachim (on this video) who was killed in an accident, but his brother Manfred, 4 years earlier
It was Manfred that was killed at Mosport
Ausome onboard angles!

It's the usual driver complaints......you can more or less do a driver complaint bingo and get it more or less spot on.

The Onyx was a beautiful car. Too bad it was handcuffed with the DFR engine.
Bloody hell, Bertrand Gachot really did have grounds to call himself a European first and foremost.
Oh yeah, sad he hadn´t had the chance to drive for a big team in formula one, but hey, he is a Le Mans winner ( together with Volker Weidler, which was also a driver in this pre qualifying). :-D
I'd take a Le Mans win over occasionally qualifying for a F1 race in my opinion
He was a true cont.
What a clown!
OK, wunderschöne F1 Bildern von damals....LG aus Brasilien, 12.08.2021.
I know that, but the fact that Joachim had DNPQ in all of his races for a team that treated him like dirt was nothing to smile about.
You should've seen how Andrea Moda treated Perry McCarthy
das waren noch zeiten...
It was good to see the brabhams there
Good old days
good good good
brundle onboard camera
5:15 onboard brabham bt58 V8 strange how he uses only up to 5th gear apparently
WINKLHOCK END UP DOING WELL IN TOURING CARS BY MEMORY!
Que bom formula um
exactly it makes it look like the cars are easy to drive
what ````knuppp.......
07:27 parece o capacete do Ayrton
WTF is Winkelhock getting from this guy on 2:09 a Smartphone???
Nothing to smile about for Winkelhock sadly
What ??? Volker Weidler...??????
WTF !? Johansson and Gachot.....are coming
Bom dia
9:41 the European.
😘😘♥️♥️🔥🔥👌👌💪💪👏👏👍👍💥💥🦶🦶
açò es una caña!!!!
Zaskschpid 😄😄😄
Visually slower and crap engine note compared to Footage (onboard) of Senna's v10 Mclaren
Poor old Brundle, my granny could drive quicker than that!
