Just once. That’s all I want is one flying lap in an F1 car

You miss the part where they tell him he needs to hit the brakes harder because he's only at like 20% braking lol

[gradypusateri]

The best part of this is that it’s later revealed he only hit 40% brake pressure on that corner

[bookle]

My favourite part is when he got back, they congratulated him for braking at 40%.

[MrMafiks]

The British version of that Australian surfer dude interview

[sedzanithilivhali]

Imagine going through that and the engineer tells you you didn't even hit 50% brake pressure

This guy had the time of his life. Ten years later, he will still get this excited when he retells this story for the 1, 000th time.

I have huge respect for F1 drivers. Some people might assume it's just like driving a car but the amount of force their bodies have to endure is humongous. You gotta be in incredible physical shape to be a F1 driver

[Man_of_TheWay]

Speaking in sound affects like a true gear head.

*Describe what it was like*
_"Wrvrplrrrrsssh!"_

[HeatFilter]

F1 drivers do some hard-core exercises because they need everything they have to keep the car going for so long.

Aaand before all those G forces, he had a full head of hair.

If you ever to get the chance to get into an F1 car, I seriously recommend neck training even in the couple of weeks before hand. Just a couple of sessions of weighted neck curls and your neck will be a lot safer from the g force. The way this man was telling this Tory was quite scary. When your head is bobbling over the place and you can’t control it, that’s not exactly fun

[genlus_s]

That's truly an experience from another world

[spamcans]

Left the best part out… when he got in the pits, they were impressed with his ability to push the brakes that hard, even though it was only a fraction of how hard the professionals press the brake… hahaha

[flying]

Excellent recant, he sure is a great story teller!

[ArgenYargen]

They actually told him he did well and hit 40% of braking potential, which is good for a first timer.

[vinceblanchard]

That is the most accurate description of what I would imagine driving an F1 car would be like.

[scottsinner]

Top-notch sound effect speech-to-text there. 😁

[dememeitized]

him describing the g force, had the same energy as that one surfer dude "talking" about taking on a wave
