So I see different people who are asking: why is my channel name this big on the video. First of all: Yes, I do not own the footage and also I don't earn anything with this content. I want to make sure, that no one steals the video and re-upload it, because it costs me several hours every time to search and cut the footage together. I hope you guys can understand the reason why.
Motorsports has also a bit of a combat essence to it with the overtaking and defending. Nascar basically turns all of that up to 11. You should try indy car and rally on board videos are great.
@ 0:35 -> Loved how the guy had his hand burning and stayed quietly waiting for his friend to spray it with his extinguisher... 😂 Like "hey bro, if you have some time, would you mind give it a spray ? No worries, just a quick spray" 😂😂
5:17 let's just appreciate the guy with both the balls and brains to keep that refuel canister locked in even with a fire underneath him so he doesn't spread it all over the front of that car or himself
Ariel if you have a Look at the other pit stops of this Racing series (indy Cars??) it’s quite common to spray water onto the leaving Cars. Don’t ask me why tho
Well, to be fair, he was safe. The bit that caught on fire is there to catch fire so *he* doesn't have to. Why panic if you're safe, y'know? Plenty of people around to help, robust fire protection, spare extinguishers... Ya boi wasn't gonna wind up barbecued unless everyone there wanted it to happen.
One pitlane marshal lost his left leg in the DTM pitlane crash (begins at 1:15) His left foot injured severely and his left leg had to be amputated below knee.
6:42 "crew member spilled fuel on car" - Oh, nevermind. Just a few drops."whistling" Car: "sets itself on fire" - "Notices scared faces of others" What are you loo... O-O-OH, SHOOT!!!
Yeah the dry break leaked and it was still pouring fuel. If you actually watch the clip you can see that the flame spreads up the sidewall where the fuel had poured. He set it back down in the pit so that the flame didn't spread any further and he was able to get out of the way of the fire marshall.
He was not doing his job right at all. The leak wasn't his fault ; but when he should have been the one calling for water/fire-extinguisher/etc he was blissfully unaware
6:45 So nobody going to react on how the guy who spilled fuel just gently drop the fueler as the flame starts spreading into his hand like it was an everyday thing?
I mentioned that I also watch the pit stops when I watch races and my friend was like why... that's like the most boring part, they're just getting maintenance. So I show him this video. Now he watches with me and we take shots when some bullshit happens 😂
From my side, the Raikkönen clip is to brutal to watch. Thanks for the Nascar input... i forgot that one. The Haas clips are critical to show... you know the FOM -_-.
0:46 thats not safe. Usually everyone in a 1 meter radius of refueling a car has to be a full fuel suit. What's the guy doing. I know bc I refuel cars.
Admittedly Ive never been on a pit crew, but I have worked around big stabby crushy vehicles a lot and I think if I were on a pit crew I would always have one eye towards jumping out of the way of an out of control race car.
It's good to see...like how these guys are prepared for everything,...one guy just has fire extinguisher open in his hands...in case something happens 🔥...now that's real safety 😎
