The two German gentlemen are legends. They make Germany proud. Good for them

If you're looking for a cheap race in Europe, then try Hungary. I've been there with my son last year. We're from the Netherlands, but going to Zandvoort costs roughly the same as Hungary. If you want to see almost all of the overtakes, then pick the GOLD 4 stand. You have a great view on turn 1 (where 90% of the overtakes are), view on pit exit and the cars slow down from 300+ km/h to about 90 km/h. Very impressive and a great trip.

As a Bahraini, watching this video made me very happy. I’m happy you enjoyed our country so much. Please come again soon.

18:02 "just pick a reason of something you're interested in and that's your reason to go somewhere" is my main takeaway from this video. I'm not a F1 fan but this is such a great video to watch. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

Also those two German dudes are the best. Definitely made your experience much more enjoyable, and you just made two great friends!

making friends with the German dudes made the video 20x better. F1 races are always more fun together, because you can't get hyped by yourself!

"AND THE BEER, THE WHOLE BEER, I WOULD PAY" <3 That's friendship. He knows you would be spending money to fly to Europe, so he's saying he would take care of some of the things. That is so wonderful. Thank you for this video, I really enjoyed watching it.

"doing more things in person" really caught me in the gut. So tempted to head to the airport right now and take the first flight to some country I've never been to. Love the German instant friends.

I am always surprised how fast people connect when you are travel alone - shows that we all have more in common than we expect.

I was part of the engineering team that designed KAIA (Jeddah Airport). The reason it seems so empty is that it is the main airport for Makkah so during Hajj it is the busiest airport in the world for about a month. The rest of the year it is way to large for the number of passengers that pass through it. Jeddah is much more known as a seaport.

the fact that you got footage from your new friends in their own seats on race day is so SWEET I love it!

[ItzYamiii]

i love how you met the germans and all instantly became friends, and ended up all hanging out together. Racing brings the boys together

There are people who love F1 but could never afford a ticket, so channels like yours gives them a taste of a F1 weekend, and shows that its not overly expensive, hopefully they're people saving for race nearest to them☘️🇮🇪

A European vlog with the Germans is a must do adventure... Please bring the rest of us for the ride. Thanks!
😎🚗🧝

From an introverted, anxious style person's perspective, I am in awe of how you did this trip. Last minute flights, almost zero research, and such a frivolous attitude walking around. I aspire to be this level of easygoing. The video is great, man

[Simsimma]

Those German dudes were awesome and so friendly! You're lucky to have met them

[usaidhello]

You seem like the kind of guy I would definitely enjoy spending time with going to a F1 race. Really awesome and humble.

[safekraka]

Great video. Fantastic to see a "normal person's" trip to F1 instead of ballers with out a budget. Cheers mate.

[faiallica]

Michael, as a Bahraini this video made me very proud of my country and how great tourists like you enjoy it! I'm very glad you liked it and hope to see you again soon because there are many more to see in our country!

Our country is so small to the point that I knew each place you've been to! 😅

Great personality, coverage, and company. We hope to see you back soon! 🙏🏼🇧🇭❤️

[JohnnyGats]

Germans in my experience have always been super chill. Sinan and Vincent 100% have that same vibe!

YouTube recommended me this video and watching you enjoy your first race live was heartwarming.

I've been to the race track four times (2005, 2006, 2022 and 2023), and every time has been an amazing experience. The people attending is so friendly and it doesn't matter what team or driver they support, you can have a nice chat with anyone about F1. And watching the cars live, the sound of the engines roaring, the tires scretching, the smell on the braking points... It gives me goosebumps every time, I honestly will never grow tired of it.

So watching the sheer joy and passion you were feeling throwed me back to that moments. And it made me think about going to Bahrain next year instead of staying here on Spain!
