    Even though Norris is the best example, I think that the new generation of drivers in Sainz, Verstappen, Leclerc, Ricciardo (he is a bit older but eh), Albon and Russel are a breath of fresh air in the sport in general. I has made F1 a sport that's better to watch, both during the race and outside of it.

      Being funny on a press conference does not help you connect with fans.
      Doing parkour on your balcony is much better :D
      Tweeting memes and something funny after the race or dressing as a banana on live stream also.
      So teams need to let their drivers be as funny as they want and stop micro managing them like they did in the past. I don't know if Lando forced mclaren to be more relaxed or if mclaren embraced it immediately, but the combination kind of changed the game in social media.

    • @LethalWalou
      @LethalWalou 3 роки тому +11

      I feel that one part has been ignored and that is Liberty Media. They started bringing the sport much more into social media and started offering us glimpses of something else of the drivers and the sport. For a few races we even had access to the driver briefings and we saw behind the scenes. We've had video series like 'Grill the grid' and videos like ''Secret Santa'' given to us on social media. Liberty Media plays in my opinion quite a big part in starting this whole thing off.

      @9danny81 3 роки тому +1

      @@LethalWalou Yeah from what I understand, drivers options of engaging on social media were pretty limited back when Bernie Ecclestone was in charge. That's honestly the main thing that was keeping me from Formula 1 in the previous years, just the old fashioned nature, lack of engagement and connection with fans. Took me a while to see the changes and get into the sport, with this season being the first I'm following really closely, already buzzing for next season.

    People who followed F1 on Dutch tv have known the openness of drivers for a lot longer. Rubens Barrichello, to give an example, was joking with interviewers since the mid-90s already. It's not really that drivers are not open and joking, it's more the approach that interviewers and other outsiders have to drivers. If people feel good with a person, they are a lot more open. Or else they'll go into their serious mode, and just answer the questions. The most important thing is: let people be who they are, and don't try to make them something they are not.

    Also, the impact of Drive to Survive which was jarring for some drivers and teams, but also awakening on how to best work with and present transparency and imperfection. It helps with WTF1 (and similar) inspiring other journalist with their goofy interview formats to allow the Drivers to open up, Red Bull and their seasonal stunts, all working in a direction for the sport to be more colorful and engaging with the fan base that is always hungry for more.

    I think the timing for his entry together with a host of his mates from the lower formulae hasn't hurt. Without that, his online persona wouldn't have translated into his "official" interviews quite as much. The Sky Team tapped into that very cleverly as well, with the dual interviews where George and Albon for example would criticise each other's laps. If they didn't have each other to interact with in that way, none of it would have mattered much for one individual's perception in the public eye outside the steamers community.

    This video is exactly what I've thought about Lando's new influence in F1. Before him, everything was so corporate and serious, it felt as if there was such a massive detachment between the fans and drivers due to their television personas, but with streaming it shows the true side of them that they often keep hidden away from the public eye. I would have never imagined Leclerc's true personality to be so different than what was portrayed previously (in a good way of course).

    having these drivers streaming, talking to people, showing their jocky and fun side is more relatable than ever before, in the USA no one had any idea what the driver would be doing at all before or after every race. Personally seeing all these postings, streaming, interaction with fans has brought me closer to the sport, F1 is an amazing sport when you get to see the ins and outs of the drivers and their teams.

    With the lockdowns everywhere it has been great to see the drivers being themselves in different scenarios to normal. Really enjoying the iracing and rfactor too and Lando has made big impacts even in the iracing Indycar events with his win where he dominated despite spinning. Shows his driving ability. With Lando, Charles, Alex, George and Matt from WTF1 doing their streams it is encouraging to keep following them whatever they are getting up to, they are hilarious! Great footage in your video and you are right about the PR machines, very false, hopefully Lando, Charles and friends get to show their awesomeness, well done 👍🏼

    • @ronrolfsen3977
      @ronrolfsen3977 4 роки тому +2

      It all comes back to drivers being able to be themselves. Kimi might be stoic, but it's genuine. He ain't stoic because the PR department wants him to be. One of the things they do well in the US is that drivers personalities are more highlighted (While sure often there are fabricated or overdone). Not everyone will like it, but it gives fans more to connect with.

    As someone who is a newer fan of F1 id have to agree. I liked Ricciardo instantly when I saw his personality and watching Norris embrace the meme and his streaming I grew to like him a lot as well. I am sooooo stoked they are teaming next year. In general, though there were some drivers I didn't like at all and seeing them loosen up has made change my position on them but without a doubt ill be a Norris and Ricciardo fan for a long time. Great video!

    It really started to change around 2019 not only with Lando but also with the help of a show called "Drive to Survive" which is also doing a great job at humanising the drivers. That and quarantine. Leclerc playing fall guys in banana costume? I'm in xD And it makes you more engaged in the sport really. Back in 2008 I knew couple of the drivers, was big fan of Alonso, Massa, Raikonnen but outside of that you really didn't even remember their faces. Right now I can say something about any of the current drivers, because they are so damn recognisable. I know how they behave, what are their interests outside F1 and what....well...drives them to still pursue their dreams. Every one of them has an unique story to tell. You can see they are more like a family to each other, especially the young generation, that actually comes from one place.

    I think there are two things in this... Lando himself is an amazing character. His online presence is amazing. The other part that helps in this is liberty media, which opened up the chance for Lando to also bring f1 stuff into online. My opinion only, but good timing the two met in a good period for increasing online presence of drivers
