Lewis Hamilton's Hair-Raising Lap, 2011 Monaco Grand Prix | F1 Classic Onboard

Onboard with Lewis Hamilton as he negotiates Monaco's tight and twisting streets in 2011...

Monaco GP: where the car in front of you literally hits the barrier and you still have to wait for an opportunity to pass them by

[MarvinNeumannOfficial]

That moment when 2011 is considered as "Classic" and you feel mighty old, even though you are just in your 20s

[ziggiable]

I don't understand how they can maintain that level of daring; concentration and speed for a whole race? It really is insane!

[AtrolinK]

I think back in those days drivers shat their pants every time they read "Venezuela" on the rear wing of the car in front.

[sevegarza]

I think at least 50% of the Monaco race broadcast needs to be from onboard footage because it's super entertaining even if no overtakes happen.

[EVENo]

Gosh, you really need big balls to drive around this track

[reichtangle]

I think red bull are still looking for Riccardo's tyres

[mrRTvids]

I could watch that whole race from this angle.

[csw]

To paraphrase Nelson piquet racing at Monaco is like trying to ride a bike in your living room

[MihirParmar]

That was pretty smart of lewis to slow down when the force india crashed, I bet many of the inexperienced drivers would've immediately gone for the gap and crashed into the other car.

[eriksouza]

That sound😍😍😍
I am brazilian, every time i look at Monaco Circuit i remember Ayrton Senna. I am really glad Hamilton loves Senna. Hamilton is a great driver too

[jfv]

0:19 how close I am to losing my shit as a Mclaren supporter this year

[stewartgrindlay]

The blown diffuser sound on downshift so amazing.

It was even more incredible in person

[johnps]

We really didn’t appreciate the V8 era when it was with us

[Synystr]

1:20 I'd've gone in there and crashed.

[FullmetalJun]

1:10 That rev limiter + KERS = eargasm! The whole onboard was pure joy with that heavenly Vodafone McLaren Mercedes which was always the best sounding car on the grid until the V6 came!
That force india driver is plain nuts though. He crashed into the wall & continues to drive on 3 tires XD

[casualmcztmc]

1:18 Hamilton Jedi sense ish to hold back there.

[Yaz]

If Hamilton doesn't win the championship this year, could you have Nico Rosberg do the podium interviews for the championship decider? That would be pure comedic gold

[acolytegnat]

1:08 - Hamilton applies the throttle early, spins the rear wheels to put heat in the tyre, transferring weight to the rear. He digs into the rubberised corner exit racing line for maximum traction, which locks the differential to slingshot him out

[shawnmarcum]

Wow he actually made 2 passes on one lap in monaco. Thats impossible.
