  1. [16:06:10] YeesusIsDaMvp: alright to start with formula 1 we might as well just take a look a the new logo change that took place this year
  2. [16:06:13] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/f1_logo_before_after_2.png
  3. [16:06:13] |html|<div class="infobox"><a href="https://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/f1_logo_before_after_2.png"><img src="https://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/f1_logo_before_after_2.png" width="400" height="166"/></a></div>
  4. [16:06:20] YeesusIsDaMvp: on the left we got the old logo
  5. [16:06:24] YeesusIsDaMvp: on the right we got the new one
  6. [16:06:49] YeesusIsDaMvp: this change has been done because Formula 1 is being run by a new company named Liberty Media this year who aims to "Americanize the sport"
  7. [16:07:21] YeesusIsDaMvp: because apparently it was too hard for american viewers to find interest.
  8. [16:07:33] YeesusIsDaMvp: Formula 1 is seen as the pinnacle of motorsports. In no other motorsports does the driver get challenged as much as he does in a Formula 1 car.
  9. [16:08:03] YeesusIsDaMvp: It is insanely popular in european, asian and south american countries
  10. [16:08:19] YeesusIsDaMvp: In this Lecture I will explain the culture around F1, iconic race tracks and legendary drivers and the challenges those drivers faced
  11. [16:08:22] Rosa☃Diaz: Do you think Its going to become popular in america?
  12. [16:08:25] YeesusIsDaMvp: but also looking at how F1 is not all about the driver as with the constructors championship it’s often about making the best car.
  13. [16:08:49] YeesusIsDaMvp: Rosa☃Diaz so far yeah Liberty media is doing great imo and aren't affecting the racing aspect and only focusing on the way it's broadcast
  14. [16:09:07] Rosa☃Diaz: Thats good to hear c:
  15. [16:09:24] YeesusIsDaMvp: Formula 1 is run by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA in short). who work in a similar way to FIFA in football
  16. [16:09:28] YeesusIsDaMvp: except they aren't corrupt
  17. [16:10:04] YeesusIsDaMvp: So now I'm going to do some history on F1 because it goes a long way back
  18. [16:10:23] Rosa☃Diaz: :o
  19. [16:10:46] YeesusIsDaMvp: The first F1 seasons was held in 1950. It featured 7 races (Britain, Monaco, Indianapolis, Switzerland, Belgium, France, Italy.)
  20. [16:11:17] YeesusIsDaMvp: so now to point how much F1 has changed since then I'm going to be showcasing some cars through the times from the 1950's to now
  21. [16:11:25] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6a/Alfa_Romeo_158_fr.jpg

  23. [16:11:41] YeesusIsDaMvp: the first car is the Alfa Romeo 158 which is the first car to ever win the F1 championship
  24. [16:12:18] Shadow Sirens ♪: when was that?
  25. [16:12:22] YeesusIsDaMvp: it's a fat and long body that isn't very wide and it is front engine
  26. [16:12:27] YeesusIsDaMvp: 1950 Shadow Sirens
  27. [16:12:40] Shadow Sirens ♪: no like what date
  28. [16:12:56] YeesusIsDaMvp: erh like date exact day?
  29. [16:13:01] YeesusIsDaMvp: idk that's too specific
  30. [16:13:06] Shadow Sirens ♪: oh ok
  31. [16:13:27] YeesusIsDaMvp: anyways the car has the nick name "Alfetta" which is Little Alfa in italian
  32. [16:14:05] YeesusIsDaMvp: it has basically no aerodynamics and is not too complicated
  33. [16:14:21] YeesusIsDaMvp: The next car is from 1963 and was made by ferrari
  34. [16:14:24] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://www.ultimatecarpage.com/images/car/3545/Ferrari-156-F1--Aero--27443.jpg

  36. [16:14:41] YeesusIsDaMvp: The Ferrari 156 F1 Aero highlights how much 10 years can change in F1
  37. [16:15:14] YeesusIsDaMvp: it has a completely different bodywork than the earlier 1950's cars and is low to the ground with an air intake and a rear engine instead of front
  38. [16:15:30] YeesusIsDaMvp: I will just point out all these cars I show have won the F1 championship at one point
  39. [16:15:52] YeesusIsDaMvp: the third car is from the 70's and also made by ferrari
  40. [16:15:55] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d4/LaudaNiki19760731Ferrari312T2.jpg/280px-LaudaNiki19760731Ferrari312T2.jpg

  42. [16:16:19] YeesusIsDaMvp: This is the Ferrari 312T seen here driven by Legendary Niki Lauda who I will talk about later
  43. [16:16:50] YeesusIsDaMvp: the 70's is where the future look of the F1 car starts to show as it was the era of big spoilers and the first proper front wings
  44. [16:17:13] YeesusIsDaMvp: aero became key in development and the cars had small front wheels and giant rear wheels
  45. [16:17:57] YeesusIsDaMvp: next we take a jump to the 90's. The fourth car is from the late eighties and early 90’s which is one of the most legendary F1 due to Senna (who I will talk about later) The McLaren MP4/5
  46. [16:18:02] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cf/Mclaren_mp4_5.jpg

  52. [16:19:10] Rosa☃Diaz: Ive always loved the design of the F1 Cars
  53. [16:19:15] Rosa☃Diaz: whats your favorite yeesus
  54. [16:19:38] #Lionyx: Ive since this one during all my childhood
  55. [16:19:49] YeesusIsDaMvp: the Ferrari F2004 was made in 2004 (surprise) and is a clear image of the modern f1 car
  56. [16:20:16] YeesusIsDaMvp: Rosa☃Diaz the F2004 is my fav
  57. [16:20:20] YeesusIsDaMvp: I grew up on Schumacher
  58. [16:20:39] Rosa☃Diaz: My favorite is the 1963 one you showed :)
  59. [16:20:49] Rosa☃Diaz: I love old vehicles
  60. [16:20:53] Krossfade: same here
  61. [16:21:07] YeesusIsDaMvp: now the next car is from 2013 which was the most aero heavy years where red bull managed to win 4 championships in a row by driver Sebastian Vettel
  62. [16:21:09] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/02/Sebastian_Vettel_2013_Malaysia_FP1.jpg/1200px-Sebastian_Vettel_2013_Malaysia_FP1.jpg

  64. [16:21:19] YeesusIsDaMvp: it's a beauty
  65. [16:21:35] Krossfade: agree
  66. [16:21:36] YeesusIsDaMvp: now until this year most cars looked very similar to that
  67. [16:21:46] YeesusIsDaMvp: however this year the halo was introduced
  68. [16:21:57] YeesusIsDaMvp: which received huge backlash because... well it's ugly
  69. [16:22:02] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://www.formula1.com/content/fom-website/en/latest/technical/2018/3/tech-feature--have-ferrari-cancelled-out-a-mercedes-advantage-/_jcr_content/image16x9.img.1536.high.jpg

  71. [16:22:11] YeesusIsDaMvp: the halo is the thing that you can see there infront of the driver
  72. [16:22:51] YeesusIsDaMvp: it's called the halo because it protects the driver and it had a lot of backlash because it's not that pretty however it has already saved people from injury and backlash is now gone because driver safety matters more than beauty
  73. [16:23:09] YeesusIsDaMvp: that was a quick view on the progression of the cars
  74. [16:23:11] Rosa☃Diaz: Thats very ugly
  75. [16:23:37] YeesusIsDaMvp: from small garage built machines to technological cars that are more complicated than rockets
  76. [16:23:59] YeesusIsDaMvp: In the current ongoing season F1 has 21 grand prix. Spread all across the world and it would take too long to name and post each track here so I’ll focus on some of the first original tracks from the 1950 season that are still here today and one new track.
  77. [16:24:23] YeesusIsDaMvp: Britain was the silverstone grand prix, Monaco was the street circuit, the belgian grand prix was at Spa-Francorchamps, and the italian grand prix took place at monza
  78. [16:24:32] YeesusIsDaMvp: I will be focusing on Monaco and Spa
  79. [16:24:43] YeesusIsDaMvp: The Spa Grand Prix being this weekend if you need anything to watch on sunday
  80. [16:24:58] YeesusIsDaMvp: to understand races it's important you know that it is built into race weekends
  81. [16:25:26] YeesusIsDaMvp: Friday is practise (unless it's in monaco then practise is thursday), Saturday is practise 3 and the qualifying, Sunday is race day
  82. [16:26:06] YeesusIsDaMvp: and it's like this for all races except for monaco where practise is on thursday and there's nothing friday
  83. [16:26:29] YeesusIsDaMvp: The two most iconic tracks will always be Monaco and Spa. Monaco for it’s flashy lifestyle and looks with tight corners and Spa for it’s insane elevation change and what is known as the best part of any race track ever the Eau Rouge.
  84. [16:26:41] tiny_1234: skrrt skrrt
  85. [16:26:43] tiny_1234: mario kart
  86. [16:26:52] tiny_1234: rainbow road is elon musk's dream
  87. [16:27:33] YeesusIsDaMvp: I'll start with Spa
  88. [16:27:40] YeesusIsDaMvp: which is again this weekend
  89. [16:28:04] YeesusIsDaMvp: Compared to Monaco, Spa is a lot bigger and is currently the biggest track on the calendar
  90. [16:28:47] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/54/Spa-Francorchamps_of_Belgium.svg/1200px-Spa-Francorchamps_of_Belgium.svg.png

  92. [16:28:53] YeesusIsDaMvp: this is the Spa track
  93. [16:29:04] YeesusIsDaMvp: the highlighted blue part is the most famous part of any race track in the world
  94. [16:30:03] YeesusIsDaMvp: The Eau Rouge takes the drivers down hill at the start until it has a steep climb and turn at the same time
  95. [16:30:31] YeesusIsDaMvp: it is a corner taken full speed and the drivers have to trust their car keeps downforce to keep it flat out
  96. [16:30:41] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://images.cdn.circlesix.co/image/2/1200/630/5/1/wtf1.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/eau-rouge.jpg

  98. [16:30:45] YeesusIsDaMvp: this is Eau Rouge
  99. [16:30:55] YeesusIsDaMvp: to me the most beautiful corner in racing
  100. [16:31:17] YeesusIsDaMvp: the elevation change and direction change is unlike anything you see on a normal track
  101. [16:31:45] YeesusIsDaMvp: here is a pic from the top of eau rouge
  102. [16:31:47] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link http://www.visitardenne.com/incontournables/sites/default/files/imagesContent/circuit-spa-francorchamps.jpg

  104. [16:32:03] YeesusIsDaMvp: which even further highlights the elevation change
  105. [16:32:38] YeesusIsDaMvp: I'm very excited for the race at spa this weekend but now I will talk about a track most people who don't even know F1 have probably heard about
  106. [16:32:39] YeesusIsDaMvp: Monaco
  107. [16:32:55] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/36/Monte_Carlo_Formula_1_track_map.svg/1200px-Monte_Carlo_Formula_1_track_map.svg.png

  109. [16:33:05] YeesusIsDaMvp: this is the current layout of the monaco monte-carlo track
  110. [16:33:40] YeesusIsDaMvp: every corner on this track is iconic however in modern times the track is not that good for racing because the cars are now too fat for monaco
  111. [16:34:14] Chiraq War: thicc
  112. [16:34:15] YeesusIsDaMvp: there's not space for overtaking many places however it will always stay in F1 due to the historical legacy it has together with it being the most challenging track for drivers
  113. [16:34:34] complexities?: Watching them go through the tunnel is always amazing
  114. [16:34:44] YeesusIsDaMvp: yup
  115. [16:34:58] YeesusIsDaMvp: now the grand hotel hairpin is the slowest point of the entire f1 season

  127. [16:36:14] YeesusIsDaMvp: it gives a perfect view of the cars and is popular among tourist that are in monaco for the race
  128. [16:36:50] YeesusIsDaMvp: Monaco is ofc a rich persons city and a lot of the F1 drivers live there because it means that on one weekend of the year they can literally go outside their building and step onto the track

  131. [16:37:38] YeesusIsDaMvp: it is very much connected with the 1% of wealth as can be seen by all the yachts
  132. [16:38:26] YeesusIsDaMvp: here's a fun video somebody made from the sparks going up beau rivage which is the 2nd turn of the track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eAhik4EhSk
  133. [16:38:44] YeesusIsDaMvp: somebody edited the sparks to the f1 car travelling back in time to an earlier f1 grand prix
  134. [16:38:51] YeesusIsDaMvp: back to the future style lol
  135. [16:39:49] YeesusIsDaMvp: The winner of the f1 monaco grand prix has to by tradition to drop into the pool. This year it was won by Daniel Ricciardo and this is the picture of him dropping into the pool
  136. [16:39:51] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464212906959962125/482650229859155979/skysports-daniel-ricciardo_4322414.jpg

  138. [16:40:42] YeesusIsDaMvp: Ricciardo nickname is "Honey Badger" and he is a fan favorite because he's so chill and fun and overall just enjoys racing
  139. [16:41:17] YeesusIsDaMvp: Now F1 has always had legends and I will focus on the bad and good parts of f1 through these legends
  140. [16:41:34] YeesusIsDaMvp: The first Legend I will talk about is Jochen Rindt who won the 1970 f1 champioship

  143. [16:42:33] YeesusIsDaMvp: sadly Rindt never got to celebrate his world championship
  144. [16:42:47] YeesusIsDaMvp: as 4 races before the end of the season he had crashed and died
  145. [16:43:14] YeesusIsDaMvp: he had however got enough points to secure it before and was the first and ONLY driver to win it posthumously
  146. [16:43:39] YeesusIsDaMvp: His wife Nina Rindt was given the championship on his behalf. She is seen here timing her husband in a race and writing it down on a notepad.

  149. [16:44:04] YeesusIsDaMvp: F1 have always been very close to european fashion
  150. [16:44:50] YeesusIsDaMvp: now when Rindt died there was a question of safety for the drivers if anything could be done or not
  151. [16:45:07] YeesusIsDaMvp: however FIA decided that nothing could be done and that drivers had to live with the dangers of driving
  152. [16:45:39] YeesusIsDaMvp: In the mid 70's a legendary rivalry formed that would eventually be turned into a hollywood movie called "Rush"
  153. [16:45:46] YeesusIsDaMvp: The rivalry of James Hunt and Niki Lauda
  154. [16:46:20] YeesusIsDaMvp: the two drivers were so different in style and manner
  155. [16:46:51] YeesusIsDaMvp: James Hunt was the rich playboy who'd party everyday and always had time for models and his cigarettes

  158. [16:47:08] YeesusIsDaMvp: He was loud and had an ego not seen in the sport before, and on track he was reckless and took major risk to win.
  159. [16:47:34] YeesusIsDaMvp: In Britain he got the nickname "Hunt the shunt" because he was so reckless that often he'd cause crashes
  160. [16:47:53] YeesusIsDaMvp: On the other side you had Niki Lauda who was the down to earth technical racing driver who didn’t party and on track he was calm and focused
  161. [16:48:01] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Lauda_at_1982_Dutch_Grand_Prix.jpg/220px-Lauda_at_1982_Dutch_Grand_Prix.jpg

  163. [16:48:21] YeesusIsDaMvp: Niki Lauda quickly got the nickname of "the rat" or "king rat"
  164. [16:48:30] YeesusIsDaMvp: I'm going to ask you guys now if you got any idea
  165. [16:48:35] YeesusIsDaMvp: why people would call him "the rat"
  166. [16:48:58] complexities?: Would it happen to be his facial features
  167. [16:49:05] YeesusIsDaMvp: indeed it would
  168. [16:49:18] YeesusIsDaMvp: he got the nickname because of his teeth
  169. [16:49:29] YeesusIsDaMvp: tho he has embraced the nickname
  170. [16:49:47] YeesusIsDaMvp: in fact I think he'd rather look like that than what he does after this next part I'm about to say
  171. [16:49:53] YeesusIsDaMvp: The Hunt-Lauda rivalry lasted from 1973-1979. In their early career they had shared a flat and where friends however their differences would clash in the peak of their careers as they both fought for the championship.
  172. [16:50:16] YeesusIsDaMvp: their rivalry laid ground for one of the most legendary F1 seasons of all time in 1976
  173. [16:50:58] YeesusIsDaMvp: Lauda had built a lead in the championship and hunt seemed to be out of the running however Lauda crashed at the nurnbergring race in germany and had near fatal injuries
  174. [16:51:25] YeesusIsDaMvp: the crash scarred him for life as his face was left disfigured
  175. [16:51:31] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/dam/film/Rush/jameshunt.jpg?imwidth=450

  177. [16:52:23] YeesusIsDaMvp: Lauda’s injuries only kept him out for two races which allowed hunt to close the lead in the championship that lauda had. The return Lauda made was so fast and miraculous that he was not completely healthy however he didn't want to give up on the championship
  178. [16:52:38] YeesusIsDaMvp: The season came down to the last race in Japan where Hunt needed 4 more points to overtake lauda.
  179. [16:52:57] YeesusIsDaMvp: Lauda had to retire in Japan as he had some problems with blinking due to damage from the near fatal crash earlier in the season.
  180. [16:53:08] YeesusIsDaMvp: Due to the retirement Hunt won the championship by 1 point in what is known as one of the best F1 seasons ever.
  181. [16:54:00] YeesusIsDaMvp: now this next part of the lecture had me kinda crying when I was writing it because the events around Senna are tragic
  182. [16:54:21] YeesusIsDaMvp: Ayrton Senna the Brazilian legend that is to this day known as the greatest legend in f1 history
  183. [16:54:33] Andy30: grats on % dp :o

  187. [16:54:50] Andy30: oops
  188. [16:55:14] YeesusIsDaMvp: He won the championship 3 times however his life was cut short in what would be known as F1's darkest hour
  189. [16:55:26] YeesusIsDaMvp: darkest (weekend) not hour but it's an expression
  190. [16:55:44] YeesusIsDaMvp: At the 1994 San Marino grand prix one of the darkest race weeks in F1 History. Senna complained about car performance to his engineers during friday practise.
  191. [16:56:12] YeesusIsDaMvp: during the same day Rubens Barrichello, one of senna’s friends and fellow country men had been in a crash and suffered serious injuries. (he would return to f1 later though and is also a legend)
  192. [16:56:26] YeesusIsDaMvp: During Saturday Qualifying Austrian rookie Roland Ratzenberger died after his front wing broke while he was going 310 km/h and the car slammed into a concrete wall.
  193. [16:57:26] YeesusIsDaMvp: After Roland's crash Senna immediately visited the accident scene and medical center. Here he met the FIA Medical Chief Professor Watkins who told a tearful Senna that this race was too dangerous and it would be best to stop racing and go fishing instead.
  194. [16:57:59] YeesusIsDaMvp: Senna however was a man born to race and said he could not stop racing. He lived for racing and he could not just stop even knowing the dangers
  195. [16:58:18] YeesusIsDaMvp: Sunday morning race day would be Senna’s last. He used the morning talking to his friend and former rival Alan Prost about recreating the former Grand Prix Drivers association.
  196. [16:58:40] YeesusIsDaMvp: Senna wanted to improve safety in F1 and he saw the best way was for the FIA to include drivers in decisions instead of people who didn’t race and know the dangers of it.
  197. [16:59:20] YeesusIsDaMvp: Alan Prost had retired in 1993 and was now a media presenter
  198. [16:59:30] YeesusIsDaMvp: As the most senior driver in the grid Senna felt that he had to take the lead of the association starting at the monaco grand prix.
  199. [17:00:19] YeesusIsDaMvp: During the last drivers briefing before the San Marino race at imola concerns were raised about the race and if it was a good idea to even have the race at all as people would risk their life on a track that was not all safe
  200. [17:00:31] YeesusIsDaMvp: FIA ignored complaints and the race would start anyways
  201. [17:00:57] YeesusIsDaMvp: Senna started the race in front however their was a stoppage after Pedro Lamy crashed in his lotus and debris flew up into the stand and injured 8 fans and a police officer. (this weekend was not only the darkest for drivers)
  202. [17:01:14] YeesusIsDaMvp: The safety car used was an opel Vectra and it had driven so slow that tyre pressure had fallen too low in the cars making them more unsafe to drive. Senna pulled alongside it and gestured it to drive faster.
  203. [17:01:33] YeesusIsDaMvp: When the race was set off again Senna set a high pace however lost control going into Tamburello at 307 km/h and he smashed into the concrete wall at around 233 km/h. Telemetry showed that brakes where applied 2 seconds before the crash.
  204. [17:01:46] YeesusIsDaMvp: The red flag (race conditions are too dangerous to drive so force race stop) was waved as FIA Medical team had called for immediate airlift and was keeping Senna barely alive.
  205. [17:02:05] YeesusIsDaMvp: Senna died that evening at the hospital as his injuries was too extensive. Watkins the FIA Medical Chief Professor said that as soon as he had seen Senna after the crash he knew it was over.
  206. [17:02:41] YeesusIsDaMvp: When the car was investigated an Austrian flag was found which Senna had put their in honor of Ratzenberger who died the day before.
  207. [17:02:59] YeesusIsDaMvp: Back in his home country of Brazil his death was viewed as a National Tragedy and the government of Brazil instated 3 days of national mourning. Millions came out in Sao Paulo for his funeral
  208. [17:03:00] (Lionyx notes: I feel like there arent a lot of people interested :/)
  209. [17:03:05] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DcboSxyXcAAkNiD.jpg
  210. [17:03:05] |html|<div class="infobox"><a href="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DcboSxyXcAAkNiD.jpg"><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DcboSxyXcAAkNiD.jpg" width="400" height="277"/></a></div>
  211. [17:03:32] YeesusIsDaMvp: Over Three million people attended his funeral to give their favorite Brazilian driver a last salute
  212. [17:04:09] YeesusIsDaMvp: FIA President at the time Max Mosley decided to not attend Senna’s funeral and instead went to the funeral of Ratzenberger in Austria giving the reason "I went to his funeral because everyone went to Senna's. I thought it was important that somebody went to his."
  213. [17:04:38] YeesusIsDaMvp: After that race week FIA stepped up their efforts to ensure the security and safety of their drivers and the Drivers Association that Senna wanted was recreated and in many eyes Ratzenberger and Senna’s death became a wake up call that arrived a little too late.
  214. [17:05:45] YeesusIsDaMvp: Senna life ended in tragedy but his death inspired safety regulations that saved lives in the future so in many race fans eyes it was a sacrifice nobody wanted but that formula 1 needed
  215. [17:06:23] (warrdd notes: i say let him finish and we will make a guideline for lectures from now on )
  216. [17:06:35] YeesusIsDaMvp: Now I'm going to talk about the most winning driver ever and even more tragedy because well F1 legends haven't been lucky
  217. [17:06:41] YeesusIsDaMvp: Now the most winning racer ever in F1 is Michael Schumacher who won an impressive 7 championships.
  218. [17:06:49] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/78/590x/Michael-Schumacher-health-944757.jpg

  220. [17:07:04] YeesusIsDaMvp: I grew up on this guy and he was one of my heroes as a kid
  221. [17:07:22] YeesusIsDaMvp: Every time F1 was on I'd be sitting in front of the tv with a Ferrari hat on cheering him on
  222. [17:08:10] YeesusIsDaMvp: Schumacher left F1 however the tragedy comes in his personal life as he was in a skiing accident in which we do not know the extent of the damage of due to his family staying very private about it
  223. [17:08:45] #Lionyx: 💔
  224. [17:08:46] YeesusIsDaMvp: Recent news however suggest that he’s capable of thinking and expressing emotion and as sad as it sounds it has to be said. He often cries when the family make him look at beautiful landscapes and when he hears his children's voices and his wife.
  225. [17:09:28] YeesusIsDaMvp: signs suggest Schumacher as I saw him as a kid will never be back but his legacy remains and as long as he can be happy with his family and his family can be happy with him then I'm happy for him
  226. [17:09:49] YeesusIsDaMvp: now I'm going to focus on the future of F1 and the current drivers and POSITIVE stories YAY
  227. [17:10:03] YeesusIsDaMvp: Currently in F1 there are two drivers who are at the top battling it out at the top in a rivalry that has similarities to the James Hunt and Niki Lauda one.
  228. [17:10:27] YeesusIsDaMvp: Lewis Hamilton the british driver for Mercedes is like Hunt a very ego filled and party animal (tho to less extent than hunt) He is seen by many as whiny if he doesn’t get his way in races and often comes off as a sore loser.
  229. [17:10:32] YeesusIsDaMvp: However there is no doubt that off the track he is overall a nice person, he is just so used to being number 1 that he gets easily frustrated. He has won the championship 4 times and is set to make more records and is one of the most talented drivers the sport has ever had.

  232. [17:11:36] YeesusIsDaMvp: he's also the first black f1 champion
  233. [17:11:42] YeesusIsDaMvp: and also the first black f1 driver ever
  234. [17:12:14] YeesusIsDaMvp: On the other side we have German driver Sebastian Vettel who after a successful career start at red bull where he won 4 Championships he eventually joined Ferrari. Vettel is like Lauda very much down to earth
  235. [17:12:24] YeesusIsDaMvp: .link https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ad/Sebastian_Vettel_2015_Malaysia_podium_2.jpg

  237. [17:12:37] YeesusIsDaMvp: Vettel is my current favorite driver
  238. [17:12:47] YeesusIsDaMvp: Vettel is also set to make more records and him and hamilton still have years left in the sport and they’re already seen as legends of the sport.
  239. [17:13:03] YeesusIsDaMvp: Currently the future looks bright for F1 and it has never been healthier and is now run by Liberty Media as it was taken over this season. They have changed the look of F1 and have “Americanized it” to make it easier for Americans to digest in order to attract more fans.
  240. [17:13:13] YeesusIsDaMvp: The racing is still the same however more focus is being put on the broadcasting layout and interviews than before.
  241. [17:13:34] YeesusIsDaMvp: Formula 1 is very much tragedy and triumph in its essense
  242. [17:13:57] YeesusIsDaMvp: F1 often lead the way for road cars to change as well
  243. [17:14:26] YeesusIsDaMvp: the first hybrid cars was F1 cars and eventually hybrid was transferred into road cars as F1 is the top of technological advancement in cars
  244. [17:14:49] YeesusIsDaMvp: To end the lecture now I leave you with a Daniel Ricciardo Shooey
