THESE CRASHES ARE SCARY!!! NASCAR Fan Reacts "Formula 1 Crash Compilation from 1998 til 2016" 

Check out Grosjeans crash from last year. You'll be shocked he walked away and shows the amazing safety features of the cars.

"Ouh that's the big one!"..."Is that a beer can?" Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Nascar.

"Silverstone is a hardcore course" - yeah, those guys are really NASCAR fans

"Wow the first corner?" Yeah...that happens alot

18:15 Jules Bianchi didn't pass away in this accident, he was involved in an accident at the Japanese GP in October of that year and passed away from injuries 9 months later. RIP Jules Bianchi

14:38 "Is this guy still alive?" He is, and he won that exact race the next year. Another fun fact: He had to sit out the next race, and in his place, future four-times world Champion Sebastian Vettel made his debut. The driver, Kubica, sadly had an accident in a rally-race a few years later, dropped out of motorsport for a while, before making a comeback for the then worst team in the F1, add a singular point to his talley, before getting dropped again. Now he's a reserve driver.

14:12 What if we told you this was only the second worst crash Robert Kubica had in his racing career?

You should have a look at romain Grosjeans f1 crash from last year. I won't spoil it but it was horrendous, I was watching it live on TV and I genuinely thought I'd just watched some die live. Thankfully he walked away with minor burns to his hands and feet

"only people that win that, are those in the front" *laughs in 1984 monaco GP Ayrton Senna*

During the 60s and 70s these drivers were getting killed on a weekly basis. F1 legend Jackie Stewart, who had 27 wins during those times, has been a major campaigner for safety in the sport and has been instrumental in how far safety developments have come.

European GP 2007 The victim of that crash was Robert Kubica of Poland. Thankfully because of the monocoque design he escaped with very minor injuries. Later in a press conference, he was asked 'have you seen the crash?', to which 'Yes I saw it, I was there!' He had an unfortunate rallying accident a long time ago, but returned to F1 for two seasons a couple of years ago.

F1 cars now have halos around the driver, indy cars also have these underneath the windshield. F1 cars are 1000bhp 1.6 litre engines

canada 07 was kubica, he survived, then went and had a big rally crash a couple of years later which messed his hand up.

In the 70's the weekend between two GP's was regularly used by the drivers to attend a collegue's funeral. F1 has come a long way since but with these speeds you can never guarantee no one will ever die again.

15:05 - “That would have to break your head if a wheel hit you in the head” R.I.P Ayrton Senna. That is exactly how this legend died in the sport of Formula 1.

Watch the Grojean crash at the end of last season... absolutely spectacular that he got out. All the latest safety precautions showed their worth, especially the halo head protection and fire proof clothing. Amazing, so good that it had a happy out come! Now he's in Indy

Group b rally, the spectators stand in the road to get a better view it was nuts

So in the earlier races the big first lap pile ups resulted in a complete restart and all the teams had a spare car available to them, so the montreal and belgium races were restarted with much larger grids than would be the case now where each drivers car is locked down from qualifying onwards. In the spa crashes they also missed the point where Schumacher was trying to lap Coulthard while in the lead and ran into him losing a wheel. The European gp where they had the sheets and things up Diniz I think was the driver and he was OK the neck brace was more a precaution, that Grand Prix is one of them most epic races ever. Montreal 07 was a guy by the name of Robert Kubica, he missed the next race as a precaution for concussion, he hit the wall at over 300kmh (about 186mph), the next year he took his first F1 win at the same track as this accident. He had a big accident in pre season of 2011 competing in a rally car where an armco barrier went through the front of the car and partially severed his right arm, before this he was thought of as a possible future world champion, after he thought the lack of use of his right hand would make driving an F1 car again almost impossible. He managed one more season racing for Williams in 2019. Hungary 2009 was Fillipe Massa who almost lost an eye after a spring fell out of or was possibly flicked up by the car he was following and bounced up off the track and hit him. He competed until a couple of years ago. The footage from Spa 2012 is probably the worst angle Romain Grosjean in the black and gold car you see for a few frames just destroyed a heap of cars and went over the top of Fernando Alonso and Alonso had a tyre mark on his helmet I believe where the other car went over the top of him. They didnt actually show the Jules Bianchi crash just where his car came to rest, the crash before it was in Canada and Jules crashed in Japan, in the rain, going a bit fast when there were yellow flags waving and slid off the track into a tractor that was trying to recover another car from the sand trap. The Tractor should have never been on any part of the track but Jules had also not slowed for yellow flags as he should have. A tragic avoidable accident. The guy they pushed is at a demonstration event in some city in Europe where they basically drive around and do a few donuts for the crowd and that is super embarrassing. Where the Alonso crash happens there is a bigger pileup in 1997 with a car doing a very similar thing and unfortunately a wheel goes through the fence and a marshal ended up dying. Alonso walking away from that crash is testament to the safety of the modern F1 car. They missed Melbourne 2002 off this list for sure. As to F1 versus Indy, the modern F1 cars top speed is around 350kph at Monza so I would assume they could give an Indycar a run for its money on an oval for a very short time however they are not built for sustained running at that sort of speed or constant G force in one direction for an oval race. F1 only runs on what you would call 'road' courses, both purpose built tracks and street tracks made out of closed public roads. In this environment an F1 car would leave and Indycar in its dust. Circuit of the Americas in Texas is probably the best comparison and its about 14 seconds per lap difference. Sorry for the wall of text

15.19 Canada 2008 "Bone-headed move" Ironically, that was 7-time world champion Lewis Hamilton rear-ending the then reigning world champion in only his 2nd year of racing. He hadn't realized that the pit lane exit was closed, so he barrelled into the back of Raikkonnen and ruined both of their races. Hamilton had been leading the race from pole up until that point but a crash on track meant lots of cars went for a pit stop. Presumably, because of the location of the accident, the pit lane exit was closed.

15:05 This actually happened back in '94, when Ayrton Senna crashed into a barrier and the front right wheel ricocheted back off the barrier and hit him in the head, which unfortunately killed him. One of the GOATs of F1!

Take it easy on Max in the Reb bull demo, he was only 15 or 16 when he did that

Those pictures where from the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix. near the end of the race, which ended after being Red Flagged. Adrian Sutil spun his #99 Sauber and ended up in the in field just off line. A couple laps later Jules Biachi in his #17 Marussia-Manor aquaplaned at the same corner and hit the recovery tractor so hard it caused the tractor to jump and land on his car. Jules passed away from the injuries sustained from that crash on July 17 2015 in a hospital in Nice, France. Since then the #17 has been retired by the FIA and no driver can run under that number again.

I only truly appreciated the power of f1 when I saw Lewis Hamilton stood on a front wing and it didn’t even flex. The smallest contact from these cars and carbon fibre is flying all over the place.

You two guys are hillarious! I‘m very into F1 (living in Germany, I have to 😂) and listening to the thoughts of two guys who are into racing but not F1 is great entertainement! Keep it up 👍🏻😁

I don’t know if Spencer and Daniel will read this but if you want to get a little more familiar with F1 Netflix has a great documentary series named Dive to Survive that they have been doing since 2018. It’s bringing a lot of new fans in especially from America and will help you get more familiar with the cars , drivers, and politics that go on in the Formula One Paddock.

Watching this as an f1 fan and right at the start I know the biggest reaction will probably be the crash at the Spa circuit in 98.

You guys need to check out some Group B rally videos,crazy driving,but even crazier spectators

These aren't so bad. There are way worse crashes than this. Check out Grosjeans crash. He survived somehow

The Romain Grosjean crash at the Bahrain GP Nov. 2020 . His whole car disintegrated, split in 2 and got wedged in the protective barrier. It caught fire, he said he accepted he was going to die but then he stood up and escaped just in time as a fireball engulfed his cockpit.

You STILL need to watch the BTCC from the 80's and 90's.

It's not F1, but check out Sophia Floersch Crash at the 2018 F3 Macau GP. More horrific than anything you'll see on here!

"why race in the rain!" it's it's international series, it rains a lot in different hemispheres then just the USA

Montreal 07 " is this guy still alive" was Kubica. He missed the following race (US GP at Indianapolis) with concussion but was back the race after. 4 time world F1 champion replaced Kubica at Indy for his first F1 race

70's f1 and into the 80's were lethal.

Robert Kubica at 14:40 survived. I don't think he was badly injured there. He did get injured years later in a rally car during the F1 off season. Massa, hit by the spring, recovered, raced, fought for a championship. The pics at 18:15 the only fatality in this. He hit and went under a recover truck that was recovering another car. He died months later.

The first corner is always the most spectacular to watch in every race, sometimes it goes without a hitch but mostly someone always gets sandwiched. I love f1 I'm a huge huge fan love the whole weekend from start to finish

In formula one on the first lap they always have a car following the race cars. In that car they have the race doctor. It’s so he can be immediately on hand in case anything happens such as the case you saw in the clips. The race doctor used to be a guy called Sid Watkins, known as the Prof., who was a neurosurgeon. He started off giving medical support in America but quickly took over medical safety for F1. The number of advancements in car racing safety are numerous and are spread over all types of car racing.

Good video guys :) but Spencer, F1 takes things to a new level, I bet you’d be impressed by the measures taken for safety...but going round corners as fast as these cars can compared to NASCAR, it’s not an easy translation of safety in approach

If you want to know why f1 is driving in the rain. Chech out Max Verstappen, GP Brazil 2016. A epic drive, from P16 to P3 within 18 laps.

Love to see more f1 reactions

Had to sub after seeing this, nice to see some home state boys getting into F1 and racing in general

14:37 Yes he is, and in 2008 he won the race on this track. His name is Robert Kubica.

I was at Silverstone in 2011 on practice day when Kobayashi crashed into the stand where I was sitting.

This cars are insane in the corners. Cornering speed is off the scale, because they have very little weight (900 kilos) and about 1000HP, plus the aero, they can go from 180 to 0 mph in 120 meters, and back to 180 in 7 seconds. Absolute monsters. Safety in this cars is paramount, thats why they have this wrecks and they (most of the time) walk away without any injuries.

Thats why Michael Schuhmacher was called the rain magician... Everytime it rained and he was on the track, you knew he would perform outstanding in 99% of all cases.

The @18.40 was Max Verstappen in the toro rosso. Demo in Rotterdam city. That was his first time driving an F1 car. At the time he was 16/17 years old. The antistall system pushed the car in the armco.

5:20 That glare to the side after making the comment was priceless.... Daniel was waiting for a reaction. 🤣

Rally racing is fun to watch. The older car & bike races are even better

A few clips you should look for... Starting of Belgium 2018 (Alonso, Hulkenburg, Leclerc) Mugello 2020 Safety Car restart Europe 2010 (Webber) Italy 2018 (Ericsson in Practice)

Great vid guys. It'd be good to see you do a vid on the biggest UK banger racing g crashes .

I wonder how many after first few crashes was like: "Oh, just wait for -07 Montreal"

Don't forget "inertial-tranference", it's not that the cars are weak per se, but if you're moving at that speed and suddenly stop, the whole mass of your forward velocity tries to equalise with whatever you hit. To stop the driver turning into jelly, the cars have impact-zones to split the damage across the vehicle in less than a second. The car gets shredded, so you don't have to.

You see these, and you have a much better understanding of why F1 and IndyCar have evolved to having the halo bar over the open cockpit; IndyCar currently also has a windshield. As others here have mentioned, the halo saved Sebastien Grosjean's life during his horrific fiery crash at the 2020 Bahrain Grand Prix. You should definitely react to that crash!

"It's WET?!?!" hahah that was a perfect first reaction lol

In 1976 Niki Lauda had a crash where he was stuck in his burning car at 800°C (about 1400°F) for some time . In the Hospital they gave him his last rites. 42 days later he got back into his car and finished the season in fourth place and becoming world champion next. One tough sob!

when it rains, it sorts out the men from the boys and demonstrates the reall racing tallent.

i always watch f1 fans react to nascar, never knew it would go the other way around

Foumla 1 is the best sport on the planet

I like how disgusted the guy in the right is when he sees rain :D „Red Flag the race there is a puddle in Turn 2!“

15:35 so here, Massa got hit by a spring from another car. It hit him on the helmet which caused him to get knocked out. His foot was stuck on the throttle and he hit the wall hard. He didn’t race for the second half of the season

Even if you are leading the race in the wet, inevitably you will start catching the cars in the back, and you will have to lap them. Drivers say that they listen to the engine of the car in front, when it starts downshifting, they start slowing down too. You can't really see anything from the spray

Quite a few missing from this time frame. I feel like i could sit and chat about Nascar/Indycar/F1 with spencer for hours. He mentions the indy500. It's this weekend as well as the Coke 600 in nascar

Fun fact: The F1 car floor it´s made of wood. Rectangle shaped planc to limit the down force of the car.

Great video guys you might want to check a colin macrae video hes a ledgend in rally

I saw Spa 98 live, it was really absolute chaos, one accident after another.

Being open wheel is the only thing that Indycar and F1 have in common. I love both! Could you make some videos introducing Nascar to us in Europe? I'm also loving IMSA. Those C8.R's are sexy as hell.

First corner crashes are a norm in F1

@20:56 Yes, that spring was around 2Kg (4 freedom-units) The driver got in a coma from it, but returned to racing after a long recovery.

To see some spectacular roll overs, hard to beat Sprint Cars accidents (I race speedway IRL so maybe a bit bias :D )

You guys should definitely do a more updated version

Hi guys you form an excellent duo really like watching your video's try max verstappen rain race in brasil a showcase how to race a F1 car in the rain. All the best wishes for you guys💪👍🇳🇱

F1 is one of the safest motorsports.. there is major safety for the drivers now, particularly above the cockpit to protect the drivers head, and also medics are on scene in minutes since the death of senna..

There is no motor-racing in Switzerland as it was banned after an horrific crash which saw spectators being killed by flying wreckage.

The one with the spring was Felipe Massa. The spring was 800 gram and he hit it at about 150 mph. He survived and raced againg a year later. Best advertising for schuberth (helmet brand) ever.

The amount of water that is displaced by those rain tires is turely mind blowing.

F1 cars do have roll protection. The roll hoop (where the air intake it) and the front of the monocoque provide roll protection.

15:40 Respect for Felipe Massa, returning after taking a spring to the head and holding down a legit career - in the old school Brazilian style.

The hungary 09 was a spring off the car in front. It hit the driver Felipe Masa in the head qnd knocked him out.

In 2018 F1 introduced the halo and this protects the driver from get hit by tyres, other cars and have saved a lot of lives but it can't prevent the driver from getting hit by smaller things like the one the video shows.

These F1 cars weigh approx 1500lb compared to a NASCAR's 3200lbs. F1 cars make 1000hp+ from a 1.6 litre engine, NASCAR engines make approx 800bhp from 5.9 litres on the fastest unrestricted tracks. The difference in power to weight ratios is huge.

"Europa.. - i believe that means europe" You know, it does actually! Hahah, I’m enjoying your videos, keep up exploring the great thing that is F1

Formula One safety is the pinnacle of auto sports. The roll frame is embedded into that central air duct and the safety structure of the carbon monocoque is crash safety rated as well as the nose structure. Formula One had the Hanns neck restraint device well before even NASCAR. That Fernando crash you saw last is one of the reasons they now drive with a cockpit halo much like how Indy has a driver wind shield apparatus. You guys should review more F1 races I think you would enjoy the F1 format. You might particularly love the street circuits like Monaco or Baku. Lastly driving in the rain is wildly entertaining and plenty of race drama comes from those rain races.

Hey guys, just watched this videdo on '22.. loved the Formula Juan joke... have you seen/reacted to the Alex Zanardi's crash on Indy Car? his story is amazing!

14:40 incredible to think he had his almost certainly last 2 f1 races this year 14 years after the accident and only missed out on a le man class win due to a last lap retirement. it’s honestly incredible!

Interview at that time with Alexander Wurz. "What did you think when you rolled over three times and were upside down in gravel?" "Hopefully they'll have my spare car ready when they restart." Another interview back then with Alexander Wurz in Monaco. "What was going on?" "I didn't get the chicane at the tunnel exit and crashed into the barrier at over 200 km/h. Luckily there was a concrete flower pot there, which prevented worse things from happening."

13.30min at Silverstone I was on that bend marshalling the race Trulli was a bit shaken up. We had a Maserati have a similar accident the day before. Some of those were very tame

Montreal 2007 is Robert Kubica, he survived, returns the next year and won the race.

The third crash, Germany 1999, was Mika Hakkinen's left rear tire failing right at the end of that straight. You can see it going pop just as he hits the brakes. At that point of the racetrack they were doing nearly 210mph. Scary one...

The one at around 6:50 Gotta remember with it being upside down, they did not even have a halo back then.

The F3 Macao GP 2018 Sophia Floersch crash is one of the most scary crashes I've ever seen, closely followed by the Grosjean 2020 fireball of course.

Not only is he alive. He has raced in F1 this year, 14 years later. He also won that exact circuit the following year. Robert Kubica

Quick question, did Ericsson hit them?

THE HORROR clip was Robert Kubica, polish, criminally underrated driver in both f1, Rally & World Endurance Racing. The man has survived atleast 3 death defying crashes & still has a lot of his pace today. amazing bloke

nice reaction guys, i would like you to react on tech, money spent etc. on F1 car .. because there is the biggest difference between nascar and F1

Jules Bianci’s death was perhaps the most senseless and saddest death ever in the history of motorsports. He skidded off in the wet and collided with the side of a tractor/loadall that was on the edge of the track removing a car that had crashed a few laps previously. At relatively slow speed, his car slid halfway under the tractor and his head struck the vehicle’s counterweight side on.

Daniel reminds me of when dogs hear a word they recognise and move their head from side to side :D

The guy from the Montreal 2007 crash is Robert Kubica. He is still alive. Worth it to read up about his life.

You guys should see some of the spectators perspective to see just how fast these cars are and how they carry speed through the corners 👍

We have Sir Jackie Stewart to thank for most of the driver safety improvements that are used for most of the different racing organizations in motosports today. He finally got the drivers union to boycot or stop a race when the safety of the tracks was non-existent, pressuring the promoters to make improvements. He was tired of attending so many funerals traceable to conditions they were forced to race under.

the "the horror" 2007 canadian GP, yes the guy, robert kubica, some polish dude, was alive he only had a broken leg and this crash led to the debut of sebastian vettel, maybe heard of him :)
