The Highest Speed EVER in Formula 1... 378 Kph! 🥵 #Shorts

No Formula 1 car has ever been measured going as quickly on an F1 circuit as Valtteri Bottas in his Williams FW38. Back in qualifying for the 2016 European Grand Prix at Baku City Circuit, the Fast Finn was measured by his Williams team travelling at a truly astonishing 378 Kph, or 234.9 Mph!

It's safe to say that Valtteri Bottas is the fastest F1 driver ever

[Wizzkidwas]

Crazy to think this was done on a street track rather than somewhere like Monza

[Ors]

New F1 fans would never understand this… a Williams attacking a RedBull 😂

[Everie]

"Bottas, what would add to your car?"

"A 9th gear"

[scsutton]

Imagine the noise if that were a V10 at 20, 000rpm.

F1 permanent course: we’re fast.
Baku street circuit: hold my giant main straight and watch this!

Back when the Williams had the most beautiful livery on the grid

[aleblasco]

If only the Martini Williams livery would have stayed for the next years, what a beautiful livery

[gentlemanghost]

These camera angles make you feel more on track

[Novabeagle]

imagine being in that red bull and the guy behind you started coming up on your tail at 378 khp XD

[_ilsegugio_]

you are at 378 kph, you have 2 km slipstream, still cannot pass the opponent.
modern F1 in a nutshell.

Why does this Shorts feel longer than Melbourne restart ?

[diggarsa]

Martini Williams livery was so awesome

[Rando]

Broski went so fast he went back to the 2010 engine sound 💀💀

[johnger]

You need Fast & Furious Gearbox bro.

[tonybailey]

234mph is absolutely mind bending fast! 👐🏾

[jonnydavison]

You know that’s max up ahead because he moves twice under braking 😂

[callmeshaggy]

I would still like to see a team do what Honda F1 did and go for a pure top speed run. They reached 413kph and averaged 397 over a flying mile.

[ItsSanty]

bro the brakes were screaming in pain💀

[bobdonovan]

That's ~234mph for us metric deficient Americans
