Now can you do a video about the life of an F1 driver: how & when do they get started, how long is an average career, what do they do after retiring, what are some examples of drivers doing different careers, and do they end up broke or all living the goodlife? Where are all of last year's drivers that aren't driving this year? In comparison, a pro American football player usually has a short career and can end up broke and/or brain injured.
Omg I watched my first race in 2018.... Had no idea what was happening who was driving but I was transfixed on the TV cheering for I didn't know who LOL. Immediately after, I spent the next few days on RU-vid University lol watching history documentaries and reading anything that would tell me what I was watching. So these videos I appreciate. Great Job!
Your F1 explained video is WAYYYY better than most of the North American creators who just show their own experience and talk about how much they are crazy about F1 rather than simply explaining it lol.
This video is exactly what I suggested in a comment recently. As expected, anybody can always learn something new and there were a few facts in here I'd never heard before. Well done!
Thank You for the informative video. I will be going to my first F-1 race on May 27 and 28th and I am watching as many videos to learn as much as possible!
Good to see you wearing an Amsterdam T-shirt! Looks good on you. And You know that Southern Comfort is prtty cheap here in the Netherlands, I texted you about that earlier. So take your chance next August!!
Congratulations Kym that was so simple and informative, couldn't have done better myself. My 4yr old granddaughter loved it. She said you forgot the lock ups, lolol she luvs lock ups 😂❤
Actually 6 dry tyre C0-C5. 3 are selected for each race weekend, so 1 week C1-C3, C2 would be the medium tyre. But next week C0-C2 making C2 the soft tyre. Or C2-C4 making C2 the hard tyre. Because apparently thats easier than the old hypersoft, ultrasoft, supersoft, soft, medium, hard, ultrahard system with individual colour markings they used pre 2019.
Did you crop yourself back to your house? I thought you were stuck in SA... or pre-made video for a time you'd be stranded in a foreign country? curious. Keep em up Kym, great content.
this jeda round is one of the most important F1 races in recent history. A dangerous track, with about five teams needing to prove something. I am so jealous you get to ride the circus... still think you need a chubby beardy assistant - you need 360 degree cameras to follow you around for your channel.
I love the video but the Haas logo is last year. I'd put money on the fact its a early 2022 video that's only seeing the light of day now. I might be wrong though but great video anyway
Kym Illman my man hi greetings from Vancouver Canada my friend how are you doing mate I have some news in regarding to the Las Vegas Grand Prix this year mind if I ask you a few questions
They should get rid of the DRS. Scotch and Soda is like a bad word in Scotland 😀Always drink Neat or add a few drops of distilled water if it is above 46% abv.
For the duration of the weekend, which includes practice sessions, qualifying and the race, each car/driver is allocated a limited set of tyres: two sets of hards, three sets of mediums and eight sets of softs per car plus intermediates and wets if needed. This was introduced partly to reduce the amount of tyres being shipped around, and it also introduces an aspect of tyre management through the race weekend to each of the teams, meaning that they have to be careful how they use them throughout the days. Some of the sets used during practice sessions have to be returned to Pirelli within a certain time limit after the session. Teams do end up keeping "used" tyre sets for race day, which they can and often do use during the race. Wet weather conditions modify these rules a bit, as during the rare race when wet weather tyres are used from start to finish, they're not required to use two different types of compounds. This means that doing a wet weather race on a single set of tyres can and has been done, most recently by Esteban Ocon during the 2021 Turkish Grand Prix. This is extremely risky, though, and the wear on Ocon's tyre by the end of that race was such that he started dropping back extremely quickly and would have likely suffered a tyre failure if the race had gone on any longer.
I don't think theres a restriction on number of laps but there is a time limit. Usually an hour before the race start the track opens and they can do a few laps usually called a shakedown. But the cars will be parked on the grid between 25 and 30 minutes before the race start time
Kym, I love F1, and love my cars (that all have ICE engines) and I don’t ever want to change. Why is it that F1 Wants to be woke and pretend to care, saying that they will be carbon neutral by xyz date. They race ICE cars, and fly huge teams on huge planes, race with gas, oil, tires, warming blankets, etc etc. and all the supplies to 20 plus countries and ship the rest in tractor trailers. No way that will ever be carbon neutral. It’s like Lewis Hamilton selling his jet, stating he wants to reduce his carbon footprint. Get real! Quit the sport. Can we all just agree to just love F1 for what it is? Leave carbon neutral to Pete buttegeig riding his bike, and all the movie stars claiming to be worried as they hop in their jets with their posse. Oh, not to mention Biden’s 200 billion gift to railroad travel as they derail and spew tons of pollution in Ohio
This sort of content frustrates me. It's constant pandering to new fans. Whatever happened to finding this stuff out for yourself through observation? It's not kyms fault but it is possible to recognise that some people were fans before drive to survive.
