@@KayJblue alonso's a rookie because he drove in the young drivers test in abu dhabi last year He is young and talented. Maybe he can become world champion one day, he is the most promising rookie of the season
Kimis Story ist actually quite heartwarming in my eyes. The one number he wanted was 6, but because he knew it meant more to someone else he let them have it
funny thing is in european culture 7 is one of the most traditional lucky numbers so i can only imagine it's a coveted number for a lot of people. Maybe not this batch of F1 drivers, but you know.
6 is the number Kimi used when he won the title. But he allowed Nico Rosberg to take that number despite Kimi actually have higher priority (he finished higher than Nico in 2013). That's actually very nice of him.
It’s one thing to give up a number that doesn’t mean anything to him, but 6 is the number used by his hero and idol James Hunt, and he still gave it up for a young rosberg.
FIA: « Kimi, pick a number. » Kimi: « 1... » FIA: « Only for reigning champions... » Kimi: « 2... » FIA: « Stoffel took it » Kimi: « 3... » FIA: « It’s Dani-look, it’s up to 7 now » Kimi: « Why didn’t you tell me right away?... »
Now that Kimi's retired, Charles can claim the number 7 in 2024, as long as Kimi doesn't come back (though that's highly unlikely). But Kimi using number 7 was quite appropriate, as he won his world championship in 2007, in his 7th year of competing in F1. Excluding 2013, when he was automatically assigned 7 based on championship position from 2012, after choosing it as his personal race number in 2014, he raced for 7 further seasons. A lot of special memories.
Can drivers change their numbers though? I thought it was permanent, unless maybe if a driver stops racing in F1 for 3 years, and comes back with their vacated number now being used by a new driver

Yuki: 11 is used by Sergio. So 2x Edit: Max: Wanted 3, taken by Daniel. So 33. Charles: Wanted 7 taken by Kimi. Wanted 10 taken by Pierre. So 10+6. Lando: Wanted 11 or 31. Both taken by Sergio and Ocon. So 4. Carlos: Seb had 5. So 55. Kimi: Sacrificed 6 for Rosberg. Mazepin: 99 was taken. So only 9. So many didn't get their favorite/ lucky number.
Funny thing about the numbers Lando wanted, Checo and Ocon were teammates with the team now known as Aston Martin If Jenson were still racing now, the only multiple of 11 Yuki would've had available is 66 (Checo, Jenson, Max, Lewis, Sainz, Bottas, Kubica, Giovinazzi)

Honestly that would be perfect in this video too. The emotional music and stuff just stops, and instead of a long interview the driver who picked it just says "nice." and it moves on to the next guy.
@@tedioussugar384 he mentioned that he won the championship with no.6, and since Keke was also Finnish, maybe his hero as well, also hunt used 6 as wel right?
everyone: it has such meaning to me, i had it when i was karting charles: well, the ones i wanted were taken so just did some maths kimi: i needed a number so picked one
He wanted the 7.. then the 10... And decided on 16 because "1+6 is 7" is Charles secretly still a child? Because if he went with 17, he could have 10 AND 7 at the same time. Now he's got none of them. He's got to do math to end up with just 1 of them. This is one very sad day for mathematics.

Yuki: 11 is used by Sergio. So 2x
Edit:
Max: Wanted 3, taken by Daniel. So 33.
Charles: Wanted 7 taken by Kimi. Wanted 10 taken by Pierre. So 10+6.
Lando: Wanted 11 or 31. Both taken by Sergio and Ocon. So 4.
Carlos: Seb had 5. So 55.
Kimi: Sacrificed 6 for Rosberg.
Mazepin: 99 was taken. So only 9.
So many didn't get their favorite/ lucky number.
Kimi sacrificed 6 (SIX) for Rosberg
@@lufetm Thanks!
@@VAMSEEKRISHNARJUNPOOSA no problem mate
Funny thing about the numbers Lando wanted, Checo and Ocon were teammates with the team now known as Aston Martin
If Jenson were still racing now, the only multiple of 11 Yuki would've had available is 66 (Checo, Jenson, Max, Lewis, Sainz, Bottas, Kubica, Giovinazzi)
I always thought that Charles took that number because of Jules
Everyone: Karting Number, sentimental reason, title winning Number

As for Valtteri it works with Bo77as too ^^

47 - For Michael
checo was a football reason
@@kivol.3454 Pierre have the same reason as well. And F1 actually show Zidane while using 10. They showed Zamorano while using his Famous 1+8 jersey
Meanwhile...
why did you choose number 13?
Maldonado: "I didn't, the number choosed me"
The cursed number!
Actually, 13 is a lucky number in Venezuela, all of our great athletes, mostly baseball players have worn it
@@santialvarez8163 oh wow! I didn’t know that
It's a lucky number in Venezuela. Many top athletes, e.g Omar Vizquel, Asdrubal Cabrera, Dave Concepcion wore #13.
@@kevind7708 vizquel for Venezuelans is 23, as for when he played for Caracas. But can also skip younger kids such as Ronald Acuña Jr
Lance Stroll is the real version of Michael Scott: «I'm a little bit superstitious, not very superstitious». So Lance, you are a little stitious, aren't you?
"Why did you choose this number?"
All the drivers: "It mean a lot for me"
Kimi: "Yes"

*For what?

@@jayrusty2012 i think most people who go as far as checking out replies to comments of a video of Formula 1 drivers explaining why they chose their racing number will get the 'for what' reference :)
Mick's story is very emotional. You gotta root for him.
what a nice backstory
@@rotary_7812 the 47 reading it as "for Michael" actually brought a tear to my eye, thats beautiful
Years from now, I swear there has to be a driver who will pick *69.*
Closest chance was Lando. He let us down. It could have been Kimi too but it is what it is.
Honestly that would be perfect in this video too. The emotional music and stuff just stops, and instead of a long interview the driver who picked it just says "nice." and it moves on to the next guy.
Im Sure if the three were taken by the Time ricciardo had his Pick hed choose 69...im mean He drinks of his shoes.
Noice
Said driver who picks it: "I just thought it was a nice number"
Kimi's story was so inspirational, when my kids grow up I will pass this on to every generation, a real tear jerker for sure.
It's nice that Kimi left the 6 for Rosberg as that was Keke's old number.
It was also the last digit in the years both Rosbergs retired from F1 (Keke in 1986, Nico 30 years after his dad.)
It also meant Kimi won his title in 07, so it kind of fit... perfectly.
@@tedioussugar384 he mentioned that he won the championship with no.6, and since Keke was also Finnish, maybe his hero as well, also hunt used 6 as wel right?
@Mr Myra ToRoNtO
@@urville Hunt used 11 in his title season in 1976, cuz of the way driver numbers were assigned by team back then.
That was the most Kimi has ever talked in a single interview.
Out of everything in this video , the most uplifting part is Kimi's enthusiasm
Micks reason hit hard
Lance: "I'm not superstitious, but I am a little stitious

This joke is funnier to Canadians 🤣🤣
@@AndrewGeierMelons Interesting. Why is that? To me it's funny because it's a quote from Michael Scott of The Office.

I'm still surprised that none of the younger drivers like Lando took 69 just for the lolz 😂
Kid Lando doesn't even know what it means.
They didn't let him
He tried 😂
I will pray there will be no other idiots to ruin the 69 likes....if anyone is feels like liking somewhere do it here...keep the 69

charles: well, the ones i wanted were taken so just did some maths
kimi: i needed a number so picked one
lando : it fits my logo
Gio : I’m last
He wanted the 7.. then the 10... And decided on 16 because "1+6 is 7" is Charles secretly still a child?
Because if he went with 17, he could have 10 AND 7 at the same time. Now he's got none of them. He's got to do math to end up with just 1 of them.
This is one very sad day for mathematics.
@@DimitriMoreira he cant take 17 it was jules number
@@DimitriMoreira no. 17 is the number of Legendary Jules Bianchi. He wont take that number. BRUH
I'm at awe how emotional Kimi's response was, lot of words for him too. Never change Kimi, I'm really going to be sad when you retire.
Kimi and Mick's stories immediately turned my eyes into tear waterfalls ...
Just the two opposite ends of the spectrum 😂😂
Kimi's number 7 story was so deeply emotional... just loved it!
Fun fact : Vet won his first f1 championship with No. 5 as well.
Edit : Even MSC won his first f1 championship with No. 5.
I thought that he picked it because of that
Back then the numbers were based on constructors championship placings
Adding to that, Seb won 5 races that year.
