That photo of Ricciardo in the Renault with the wet tires is amazing. What a shot Kym!
I love that shot too, the light was perfect.
Gotta admit that's a lovely shot could look at it whole day and whole night and not get bored of it
@@michaelcooper4986 Those rain tires look mean, black and yellow are beautiful, and that "stop being them" helmet was great.
Kym, please drop the ai thumbnails. It's not it mate.
yea you're right
They are fine
He is still testing it clearly. I’m three minutes in and have thought of nothing except for the weird sponsor next to the weird car next to the weird fact that Leclerc has five fingers on the front of the clipboard😂
there’s literally nothing wrong with them what?😂 they work you clicked on the video because it’s appealing
@@brad9959 We clicked because it's a Kym video, the thumbnail could as well be all black. Doesn't mean we cannot say AI thumbnails suck.
thumbnail is good but if you glance for a couple seconds to try and read the text you notice the strange AI car
That's a shame, should just use his own picture, but this is probably the Editor's fault
Whine whine whine
Leclerc’s grip on that clip board is questionable
It's an AI Leclerc as well. Such a bizarre option coming from an actual photographer.
@@darodjati why try to “shame” someone over something so trivial? I’ll bet you’re a lot of fun at parties. 👎🏼
AI Charles Leclerc ? Cmon kym look at his hand 😂
Why does leclerc have 5 index fingers on his right hand in the thumbnail????
Thumbnail lacking a thumb with a nail ? Oh my!
The real question is: why do you not have something of substance to complain about?
Because his other name is Endigo Montoya, you killed my father...
Because crappy AI, come on Kym you’re better than that.
Love the videos Kym, but the AI thumbnails have to go.
Great video, thanks Kym!🙏👍
Hate these AI thumbnails. Everything else is fantastic on this channel!
I ain't here for the thumbnails, great video as ever Kym!
You're the best!
You always manage to share something that I didn't know before. Thanks and have a good
season.
Cheers, you too!
that shot at 5:15 is one of my favorites you've taken Kym! Fantastic work as always
I didn’t realise how good it was at the time
EXACTLY what I said lol
Imagine glancing across and seeing Max staring back 😂
New F1 fan, loved last season… counting down the days until the race year kicks off! Great BTS information 👍🏾
I’m right there with you!
Kym, the depth of information you're giving here, everything you're observing, noting & relaying, is awesome 👏 Super inspirational for me as I work my way into motorsports photography!
Thanks for the thumbs up there. Cheers
But you will find kimi sleeping under a table or in a closet til there is 10 mins left for lights out 😂
Kim you really make the waiting time for the new season good. Kudos
Cheers.
I always look forward to your latest uploads, Kym. Thanks.
I think we know where Kimi would be.
Hello Kym, I'm not sure if the teams would share this information, but in the future would you be able to cover the actual car start up and shut down procedures? I've always wondered how it's all done with all the modern technology in use.
Enjoyed the stream yesterday hope to be able to catch more throughout the year, And Really good video, Love the Insight as always!!!
Cheers for that.
Good information there Kym . Very good content as usual. ( btw how do you sleep with such an evil sounding doggie running around at nite!? 😬)
This video is a great example of why I am a supporter of your channel. Nobody else I have seen gives us content like this and a reason why people should subscribe so they don't miss your work. I will be with you for the 2025 season catching everything you put up for us. I'm going to stay passionate because I know you will.
Delighted to hear this Terry. Maybe I’ll see you at a Race one day.
7:35 "Big cold there, max!"
Great video very informative
I can tell you one thing “SIMPLY LOVELY” good job as always Sir Illman Also I believe it’s the Medical car at the back on the starting grid.
Thanks! And you are right about the Medical Car.
When I was at the Aus GP in 2018 Esteban Ocon came into the ladies loos in the paddock just before the race. You've never seen so many excited ladies in your life lol. But everyone understood that the drivers need the facilities (and need them ASAP!) so he got moved to the top of the line. No security guys came in though. Great insights as always Kym - thanks!
Fascinating. Esteban does not have security, but certainly Lewis, Lando, Oscar, Charles and Carlos would’ve had their security guys clearing the loos
Thanks for sharing.
Can't wait .
Being a creator, you can't use AI. That's really bad.
I spotted a lot of Ricciardo while watching this and I liked it 🥹
Interesting vid , can you do something similar explaining the mechanics prep
Why are you using ai thumbnails again??? they don't look good.
Professional photographer, and not a bad one, uses ai thumbnails. Wtf.
Hey kym, it's actually good advertising. Because if we're going down this path, well let's do it for real. I'll have a AI f1 poster, it'll be ok once we're all used to it.
Thanks for your service Kym, hope you'll be successful in your next venture.
Great video Kym, love this content and would enjoy more of the same!
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Enjoy the videos, and still do. AI thumbnails cheapen your brand. hope you move way from them, im sure its for some reason though
Michael Schumacher: having a pee.
You must have some really shit photos if you have to rely on AI pictures.
should probably lay off the ai thumbnails. you're an amazing photographer; we'd rather see your work!
Why are you up so late Kym?
To provide you with a video.
Dude seriously, you’re a pro photographer and using ai images for thumbnails. Just sad really
1:27 They 100% do a track parade at Bahrain. I've been to the previous 3, and they always go round. I usually sit in the Batelco stand.
Dayta is how the UK pronounces it, data is the USA way!
I always wonder is the medical Car that is doing the start driving the hole lap if there are no incidendts?
at 00:30 Martin Brundle starts his grid walk
"We've got a driver here, can they please go in front to the urinal"
"....which driver?"
Kym - how much weight does a driver lose in a typical race?
I couldn’t think of anything worse than having to go through all of that just before you take the wheel of a 300km/h+ canoe…
Shows their mental and emotional strength as well as their physical, it does.
Crazy.
The answer to this is relative
“ Breakfast of champions “
Going to Suzuka this year, I can’t wait to experience this in real life !
Good to see Chris Gale at an F1 race. The Universe Boss.
He’s a funny man
3:32 dah-tuh vs data 🤔🤔🤔🤔
10:59 is the evil Pomeranian friends with Leo? 🥰
Well done Kim.... very informative and for those who go.............. Ummmmm what is going on?
Glad you enjoyed it.
Great videos Kym. I watch the actual videos, not focused on thumbnails or anything AI. The content is always good.
I appreciate that!
kym lewis year
Before Bernie took over the start times and everything else was super fluid. Formula One is the most punctual sport out there now.
I once stood next to a race driver at the urinal, it was Colin Bond at Adelaide International Raceway probably about 50 years ago.
So do drivers sell autographed race worn fireproof underwear and socks?
I really want to see what's on their screens when they are sitting in the car...
me, an american f1 fan: Oh, races all start a 2PM, hm. I never knew that.
That was just an example
Pop Quiz: Anyone know what Kimi did before the race when Pele was getting his award...
Have always wondered if the “AH-ROO-GAH!” horn used to signal certain events in the preface countdown an actual horn, or a sound effect played over the PA.
is no one going to mention Brad Pitts car being taken off the track at 9min 31 sec?
I thought the start delay was a random number of seconds (milliseconds) between x and y. Not the starter hitting a button. I get you are summarising but I always found that interesting and wondered why it sometimes seemed quick and other times they are held a little longer
How do you think the random timing starts? Someone somewhere has to hit a button
Listen to the sequence again that he describes…..
I thought the start button was pressed THEN the red lights came on, one at a time, then i computer timed delay between the last red coming on to all off to indicate race start
I’ll have to check that out
Love your videos mr. Illman, BUT I'm not going to pay $2.00 a month for your "Members Only" content...... (and that goes for any other youtuber)
Noted.
Question off topic....is there anything in the F1 rule book that says driver has to be male? Right through this vid, the talk is about "he has to" or "his mechanic" etc.
Genuine question. Not looking to get into any gender debate or whatever.
Drivers can be either sex, but but they’ve all been male in my time
Thats 1 to many fingers
An Easter egg
Too
first
Welcome
Please Kym, do not use AI thumbnails.
