I've got to say, Montoya's "Blind or Stupid" is probably one of the best F1 press moments

[gambinoi]

Alonso, Raikkonen and Montoya. What a line up of rookies

[TheGabe]

Despite public warnings from two-time Indy 500 winner Al Unser, Jr. claiming that if a driver does not respect the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the place "will bite you – hard" Montoya shrugged off the advice claiming that all four corners were exactly the same and that the track required less attention than the road courses in the CART series and in European racing.
In the event, the Colombian led 167 of 200 laps and claimed top honours at the end of the 500-mile (800 km) race, taking an easy victory on his first attempt.

What a guy.

What made Montoya one of a kind? Two words: “fucking Raikkonen”

[chico]

My favorite thing about Montoya is how he left F1 because he genuinely didn’t like the politics involved, he just wanted to race. To this day he’ll even say he doesn’t regret so not only is he a super skilled driver, he’s super down to earth and just wants to do what makes him happy above anything else.

[modergav]

Montoya in my opinion is just like Nelson Piquet in terms of personality and wheel to wheel battles. Would he great seeing him up against Lewis, Fernando and Kimi on 07 and 08 seasons.

[giomilahy]

Raw speed. That what make him different. Him and Nando have that kind of agressive yet smooth driving style. Thats why i really rooting for both of them.

[nascarnational]

One of auto racing's greatest personalities. If you followed one series, you saw him compete and at a high level. In F1, he battled the best of the best at a time that is very much iconic. In IndyCar, he was one of the many drivers that proved that grand prix victors can translate their skills into two wins at the Indianapolis 500, auto racing's biggest event. In NASCAR, he enthused fans and competitors with multiple thrilling wins on road courses. While an oval victory didn't come, he was able to compete with the likes of Tony Stewart, Jimmie Johnson, Kyle Busch, etc., on very unique tracks and cars that he didn't grow up dedicating time to. In sports cars, he proved that closed-cockpit comfortability & open-wheel masterclass can indeed translate to trophies @ Le Mans & Daytona.


The best part? He still has it today. He can race at Indy and become a threat to score a third Borg-Warner Trophy. He can jump into a NASCAR Cup car @ Watkins Glen and potentially outduel Chase Elliott, who is set to become NASCAR's road-course god. He can sit behind the wheel of a Toyota @ Le Mans and crush the competition with unimaginable force. Say what you want about the GOAT statuses of Lewis Hamilton, Jimmie Johnson, Scott Dixon, etc, but Montoya is only one of less than of a handful of elite individuals to succeed in literally anything and everything he's touched. In the modern day no less. Simply put, Juan Pablo Montoya is a generational talent, and one that's set the bar for racecar drivers across the world.

[jacobogomez]

As a Colombian, this guy was amazing. Local tv would broadcast the races at 5am with the soccer commentators, just amazing.

[botortamas]

The very first driver I rooted for when I first started watching F1 20yrs ago. While everyone was glamorising Schumacher and Ferrari I was always rooting for the underdog. He kept it exciting with his wild overtakes and would bully passed Schumacher which no other driver had the balls to do. Single handedly kept 01 and 02 interesting. Fearless driver he was and not your typical eurospec crop driver which made him different. Shame his career unravelled the way it did.

[MadeByPerspective]

An unforgettable F1 driver that’s for sure 🔥
Thanks for having me on bro, video turned out awesome!

[DanHill]

After Hakkinen retired Montoya was my favourite driver for a while, still gutted he never won a championship in F1.

[DiegoRomero-gjzn]

He's the "moral" winner of the 2003 championship. Without his car failures in Austria and Japan, he would have scored enough points to outscore Michael and Kimi in that year's championship. He really only came 12 points short of winning it.

[Jueen_]

I think right now he’s still trying to win 24 hours of Le Mans, I think with that he’d get the triple crown of Motorsport

[GamingTohru]

I love Montoya even though I’m a Schumacher fan, he’s so competitive and passionate. He had potential to become an F1 world champion.

[GarfieldRex]

As a Colombian, first heard about Montoya in the 2000 and followed him to F1. 2003 was the year of the championship if the engine didn't blow up on Austria. I remember the F1 mania in my country, as a kid i have picture of me in a mockup FW24, love that photo. But even when Montoya left F1 me and my dad sticked around, we have been following F1 since then. My dad loves Hamilton and I am an Alonso fan, means this year, 2023, I'm happier than him xd. The early 2000s was an era I will never forget ❤

[H-Real_]

He is a legend. Put him in any car he will be undeniably fast and relentless. I remember as a child, like 1 or 2 years old, watching f1 with my dad, nothing would get me excited except for that Williams BMW charging alongside the Ferrari, I would just scream things like "Montaya" and "M" because I couldn't pronounce BMW for some reason.

[estesandia]

Thank you for talking good about one of our Colombian heroes. He really made us proud back in the day

[abrarkhandoker]

Finally, a video on my Favourite driver in all of motorsports not just F1. This cheered me up.

Thanx Aldas

[charamia]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video! I have to say that press conference of Imola -04 is one of my favorite moments. You can feel the tension in the room when Montoya said 'blind or stupid', and the relief of 'that's racing'. That one sentence I feel sums up Montoyas attitude towards the sport - and towards Schumacher.

When Montoya was asked to describe Schumacher in one word, he chose 'target'. He was the one driver he wanted to beat more than anyone.
