      When people say power steering or lack thereof, they fail to realize once the car is moving over 5mph or even that, it becomes a moot apparatus. It's only taxing when you're trying to maneuver in very slow speeds.

    • @TheFPF422
      @TheFPF422 4 роки тому +18

      ABS and Traction Control are there... They are in your feet! and for the T.C., it’s a combo with what your ass is feeling... That’s why there is almost no padding in racing seats (and that a lot of sporty drivers prefer the German manufacturers with their “hard” seats)

      @@thatebutuoyguy788 Not in a race car. It's still difficult and adds up over the course of a race. Plus the higher steering ratio makes you have to move your hands around a lot more. Plus you have to take one hand off to shift...
      Max Verstappen recently lost partial power steering when Vettel plowed into the back of him and sent him flying off a curb and he said he got quite the workout. Of course, it's a little different with the lower steering ratio of those cars... without any power steering you can't even drive them at race pace.

      +Chris James I thought so too. I think some of it has to do with the curbing. It's much higher than it is now. Actually, the curbing is so even that the racing line is now straight over it, both on the left and the right. But the way it looks back then, you had to stay off the curbs and do more of a back-and-forth saw at the wheel, as a result. I could be wrong.

The cameras in those days were quite large and fairly heavy, though, and this camera is clearly mounted high in the cockpit. That in itself, would be a disadvantage, due to the adverse effect on CG height.

    *Spa-Francorchamps* is such an awesome track... you actually feel like you’re going somewhere unlike all these frelling *Herman Tilke* tracks that are just _”squiggly bit, straight, squiggly bit with a corner _*_inspired_*_ by a good track, straight, squiggly bit...”._

      Thank the FIA. They mandate the design of most major tracks or, rather any track that wishes to be FIA certified. They make the tracks boring or, less interesting, in the interest of driver safety. Shorter straights, turns of a certain radius, maximum and minimum banking, are all products of FIA mandates. Chicanes on The Mulsanne are a great example.

      thesantiso Eau Rouge is not meant for the kind of maneuver Stefan attempted. He had all of Kemmel to attempt an overtake. He was fast, but very hot-headed. Ickx is not to blame for his death, he had the line and Stefan should've backed off. Shame that he died nevertheless

    • @martytc
      @martytc 9 років тому +52

      thesantiso Outrageous statement. I understand that you are a fan of his but Stefan made a terrible decision to pass in an impossible place. I've seen the in car camera from Ickx's car and he can take no blame whatsoever. He was online, not blocking, Stefan ran into him and the impact into the Armco was not survivable. A racing accident brought on by a questionable decision by a driver. I liked Stefan and was sad about his death but to blame Ickx is crazy.

      You do know what the vulgar term "gentleman racer" means right? Gentleman racer means a man racer who would not make you hit the wallride for making a stupid pass, no matter how stupid it was.
      Ickx, is a piece of shit. I'm not balming 100% him. But he knew he could have avoided that, and he yet decided to press on. He was slower, he will always be... Maybe that's why this piece of shit had to touch Bellof's rear end
