Seeing all these backmarker teams who struggled to last for 5 minutes, I think Minardi lasting 20 years in the sport despite struggling to find results is actually quite impressive.
It is a very good point!
Just because they were a Minnow team didn't make them an incompetent one, that's the difference.
Minardi is Alpha Tauri now and not bad at all.
Show a little love and respect for Minardi...dont forget Marc Webber awesome driving for them...Also Pierluigi Martini is a legend...
@@FP1Will Aikatsu Friends 2015 and Aikatsu Planet 2017 are exactly as WORSE as LIFE RACING ENGINES.
this f1 team is like life in very way
hahahaha they predicted 2020 pretty well. Stuck and going nowhere...
Shit?
@@FP1Will You do excellent job and your videos are very cool...Young fans have to learn some history...Its not only Haas...
I love the description out of context
*Today we discuss Life*
Hahaha someone caught on already 🤣
@@FP1Will Haha good one
Life is hard
Fun fact: In the same season where Life competed, Claudio Langes made the record for the most attempts to start the race
His entire F1 was only pre-qualifying sessions.
"If you think 'W12' sounds familiar, its probably because its also the name of the car Mercedes will use to likely dominate the field with in 2021"
Lol that aged well 😅
Hahahahaha rip
I think the worst team might be mastercard Lola. They competed in only one qualifying session in 1997 and they didn't qualify. That was their only appearance on the track ever
They will get an episode soon enough don't worry
Not the worst team, but worst sponsorship deal. Their title sponsor forced them to race in 1997 instead of planned 1998. When others were unveiling their cars, Lola was just starting to develop theirs. No time for wind tunnel or on track testing. Way too late to secure a proper engine: The best they could get were Ford Zetec V8's from 1995. They weren't good then and this was time of rabid engine development.
The fact that they managed to build a car from scratch in like 2 months and only lose 11 and 12 seconds against Villeneuve and his Williams (He was 2 seconds faster than Schumacher who was third..) is something. Not much, but still a lot more than what Life and few others achieved.
@@kimnice And the team got screwed by their sponsor MasterCard. The so called sponsorship agreement made funding contingent upon MasterCard selling a certain amount of "F1 Club" credit cards. Unsurprisingly there was little public interest in buying a credit card on the name of a team with no recognition in the marketplace. As a result the team received almost no money from MasterCard. The team had run up large debts anticipating it would be paid off from funds received from MasterCard and after two races of not qualifying was essentially bankrupt and dropped out.

..on the other hand they knew the terms of their contract and still agreed. So that's on them.
Lola had failed earlier and quit in F1 after 1993 season. They were also trying to re-enter F1 in 1995 and Allan McNish tested their F1 prototype. Maybe that prototype was so bad they couldn't use it as a base for their 1997 contender.
Great series so far. I’d recommend doing stories on Pacific and Forti from the mid 90’s.
Both good ideas those!!!
How about Eurobrun?
Suggesting a video about the _original_ HAAS Formula One Team, Haas Lola from 1985-6
Can't be a bigger mess than my own life tbh
hahahaha and thats saying something... XD
I think you have succeeded at life bcs u managed to slide a Mazepin joke into a story about a 1990's f1 team
hahahahaha well thank you
@@FP1Will Imagine Mazespin on a ..Life...Andrea Moda...Caterham...Virgin...or an Osella...AGS....Eurobrun...or ...March...
I still think that Andrea Moda was a worse team. See, while Life's car was atrocious, the team was bad because of sheer incompetence, while Andrea Moda's case, was a dickish team boss who sabotaged his own driver. I would take a incompetent boss over a prick who could sabotage me.
Mastercard Lola “eat your heart out”
It even broke down at the Goodwood festival 🤘🔥
Could we get a video on the story of Orange Arrows, one of the coolest slow cars in F1 history!
WIll try and get round to it one day
The Prost Peugeot was by far slower than Arrows...
Life racing formula One team made Arrows look like a combination of Red Bull and Mercedes 😅
gotta see coloni racing here too at some point, after 1988 they couldnt even qualify for any races, and the ones they did only 1 car made it through and didnt even finish the race at all. Became andrea moda
Love the video’s man!! Perfect balance between information and comedy 💪.
65k subs at the end of the year!🔥
Blimey imagine 🤣🤣🤣. Thank you man!
one L190 is restored to the W12 spec and ran on Goodwood, The Sound is orgasmic but hell it is slow af
Non F1 fan: the hell why that Ferrari so slow
I can imagine! Cannot wait to get back to Goodwood after all this corona stuff is over!
@@FP1Will Yeah can't wait for Leclerc to bring his SF90
Some other suggestions:
Pacific 1994
Prost 2000
Forti 1996
Eurobrun 1989
Footwork 1991
And the biggie- BAR 1999.
You forgot March 1994, AGS , Osella and the biggest joke...Theodore Racing...
@@user-ns7tv2li1u Osella qualified and scored some points
Prost 2000? Despite Alesi's heroics
And BAR was at it's peak in 2005
I do miss the glory days of turning up for pre qualification in something vaguely formula one, it would have made for more interesting formula one games
This channel is some of the best f1 content on TH-cam , kudos man keep this up ✅👍
Thank you bro!
Death: F1's Greatest Team
This is honestly a good video. Not too straightforward, there is some Comedy and most importantly, the video is short, interesting and informative. Keep up the great work 👍
(Btw I subbed even though this was the first time I’ve seen one of your videos)
Thanks dude! Appreciate it!
Imagine if the internet was as it is now back then
Clear message, clear structure, easy to understand, thank you
Amazing video, watching all you videos from Germany✌🏼
Awesome! Thank you! Glad you like them!
Congrats on the growth of the channel and subs mate! Doesn't seem that long ago you were just talking to a few of us
It's been crazy for sure! Thanks man!
Great to see this series back again. Can you cover the 2 F1 teams that couldn't even make the grid in 2010. We know that Virgin, HRT and Lotus were bad but at least they actually raced. There were 2 other teams that couldn't even make the grid. I know one of them was USF1 but I don't know the other one name.
Once again thanks FP1.
Cheers man, yea I'm sure I'll get round to them at some point!
Stefan GP was the other one. Ironically they were actually best prepared for the season, but the FIA refused to allow them entry.
@@MrSniperfox29 Thanks I didn't know that.
Well done hitting your 20k goal! It's a good little channel
Cheers!!!
Worst upcoming F1 team
RICH ENERGY F1 TEAM 😂😂😂
give it a few years
@@FP1Will or Aikatsu Planet 2017 team.
Are you gonna do one on US F1?
Not a bad shout that!
The life was slower then the 1958 vanwell
The 1958 Vanwall was not far slower than the Cooper Climax...It classed it many times...remember Monza and Old Nurbugrung...
their cars looked cool
Could you make a video about the failed Mastercard Lola team from 1997?
I think he has done 1 video
we can say
the life team wasn't lively
Hi Will, Jeez 22K well done mate. This is new account for me. Bosuns Mate being my old one. I started following you from the beginning and I can't believe how fast you have amassed your subscribers. What's your secret Will?. Keep up the great work my friend 👍 👏
I know they didn’t actually come into existence but it would be interesting to see a video about Stefan GP
That's just Life..
I'd like to know what Patrick Head's opinion of the engine was when they were offered the W12
Class vid🤟. Definitely getting 30k before the end of the year🤞🤞
Thank you man!!
Looks like Life went downhill - anyways enough about me, great video on this F1 team!
Thank you man 🤣🤣
Loving the series 👌
Thanks man!
6:32 look at the sticker on the engine cover
Well, the car was a racing equivalent of ussr(cool in concept but terrible in practise and oh my god how did that even get here), so I guess it’s quite fiiting ;p
Hey Will, I am brand new to the sport of F1. Where do you recommend I can go so I can learn as much as I can about the basics of the sport
Cymotersport is a great channel
mate your jokes are on point. well done
Thanks man!
Maybe a vid about stefan gp cuz i cant find any info about it on yt
Definitely planning to do one soon!
I am looking forward to your take on Super Aguri. Terrible team with the worst F1 driver.
What about including the Willy Kauhsen WK F1?
I think it would be an hard race
You need more subs I think your content is very good.
Thank you man!
@@FP1Will no thank you good sir!!! May I ask how long you have had this channel? I always watch f1 stuff but I just found yours not long ago I wasn’t sure if it was new or I just missed it somehow, either way best of luck to you and keep up the good work.
I've been on TH-cam for 9 odd years but started fp1 back in 2019
It may be slower than a Prius but the car actually looked pretty darn good
This is the actual definition of a 'shitbox'. I wonder who even agreed to drive it in the Goodwood Festival. Anyway, nice one again, Will. I joined the channel when it only had about 550 subs. Seems incredible how fast you've reached here. Congrats on 20K.
Thanks mate! Yea it's been mega this last year!
6:07 so THIS is a GP2 engine...
Hahaha Indeed!
What I wanna know is how on earth they got a Soviet brand (Pic or Ris?) on the car
Sorry but I consider the cumulative state of a team before calling it the worst and I think Andrea Moda has too many dings against it beyond just dreadful pace, even if Moreno was able to get into the Monaco GP.
Suggesting: Prost GP
Good idea!
(Lack of) Life racing.
I guess you can say this team had a terrible life
This makes 2021 haas look like f2004
My F1 team be in the series.
Thought about Mastercard Lola?
I literally cannot listen to or talk about this team with a straight face😂
Nah they actually restored and showed off an absolute shitshow of a car. That thing makes the 2021 Haas look like a Mercedes
U should do the pacific f1 team or coloni f1
Will defo end up on this list at some point
The video starts at 1:58
I appreciate your general shithousery
Haha thank you 🤣
Those striking engineers should have been fired for such a level of pettiness
As hard as they tried. This team just didn't have enough life to make it to the grid
Have you ever heard of Josh Revell by any chance?
HOW DO U HAVE 20k SHOULD BE 2M goat
Thank you man!!!
When the announcers roast the team...ouch.
Wait, Brabs got conviced for /that/, whatthefuck?
Yea surprised me as well
Life master🅱️lan complete. Now for Ferrari s🅱️innala master🅱️lan.
Hewwo
洗練されたチームだけより、ライフのような弱小チームが現れる方が面白かった。
Hey fp1
hello!!!
@@FP1Will Thx fp1
Aikatsu Planet 2017 team is like Life F1 team. Plain WORST.
So according to you, this car literally had a GP2 engine?
Pretty much
More like a Formula 3 engine
@@AdamTheMan1993 yep
1:50
How to make the Mercedes W12 more W12... Oh, I know! Get that W12 engine into the car! Surely the Mercedes dominance will be over.
Noncy brabham
Who does Ferrari manage it shit them selves two times
German junk like the Zakspeed-Yamaha 891B
Mhm, the team is dead.
I know I'm very late, but why is there an USSR flag in the car?
Soviet sponsor
O U R F 1 S H I T B O X
6:30 red, ussr flag, that is why it sucked so bad
Still the worst ever is Haas Lola
They'll probably get an episode too at some point
This was worse, it did a lap time of 7+ mins around san marino
@@forza3943 Poor,, unfunded teams are not worst ones. They are just amateurish. Haas Lola had a lot of money and superb team, but no results. It makes them worst.
@@marguskiis7711 Not rly, they just were rushed by their sponsor. They would have been fine otherwise
Remember a fat Alan Jones strugvling with that car...and a veteran like Patrick Tambay could not find qualifiyng time...
Life Is by far the worst F1 team ever. By far.
life has the worst f1car, the team itself a (very) little better than andrea moda
You cant help the sly digs at ferrari I see.... look at your own pom git teams
Video starts at 1:59
You are laughing and judging. But are you yourself a competent mechanic in a team. First be that, then look down on others
Hahaha oh little do you know… 😉
You speak too much and too fast, it’s hardly possible to follow. Plus, the jokes and the parentheses make the whole impossible to understand.
