- This is a multi-angle spectator video of the FIA Formula 1 2007 United States Grand Prix shot in rare-for-the-time 1080p! If you watch only one part check out around 15:00, no words to describe that experience!
Around 21:20 is pretty cool too. Alonso trying to pass Hamilton and then ALO sending his team the angry message by running wide on the next lap, big drama back then at McLaren. Do a google of that race if you dont know the background. Im a huge Alonso fan now, back then he was a bit annoying, now F1, Le Mans, Indy... Respect.
The camera btw was a first gen Sony Prosumer HD cam that used DAT tapes I believe... Around the 8:30 mark the speed of the cars braking and the motion blur from me panning is too much for the camera to handle, every shot has dropped frames and artifacting! I also noticed sometimes the noise of the cars would cause data loss! Bleeding edge 2007!
Man, it sure is amazing to see full-HD spectator footage of this race. Keep in mind, this was filmed during the early days of HD and also filmed during a time when having an HD camera was still a luxury.
(Also, 2007 was the year when F1 began broadcasting in HD.)
Yeah man, I got lucky, work bought this for a project and I just sorta borrowed it for the weekend. F1 in HD years before Bernie would invest. lol Glad you enjoyed!
@@markschoennagel5076 Wasn't it also during this time and most of Bernie's reign where even posting F1 would result in some sort of copyright?
@@therago1456 They couldnt claim copyright on a video like mine where a fan recorded but any official F1 footage, even a 10 second clip would be instantly pulled down. Never understood some of the things that dude did.
@@markschoennagel5076 Yikes, it really has left a large void from the early 2010s and late 00s and it's quite sad.
Seriously, i was at this race and i didnt even own a cell phone yet lol i thought hd in 2007 was only like 480p haha this is great. I was sitting in oval turn 4
Real formula 1 sound..
almost the v10, where beter
@@Sarge-R1 Nah! the DFV was even better. :P
@@Sarge-R1 The STR's that year were running V10's that were "limited" ... but yeah V10's were better!
@@markschoennagel5076 No, the STR had a V8 this year. It was 2006 they had special permission to use a revlimited V10 from 2005 in their cars.
@@Mange070 I went to a race the year before and got mixed up, I fixed the description. ...compared to todays Dysons its an easy mistake!
The sound is EXACTLY as I remember. But THAT SMELL! NOTHING RECREATES THAT SMELL!
racing fuel? how's that smell?
I've never watch F1 flyby in my whole life
That smell was an acidic perfume. It was bizarre to say the least
Oh yeah, the smell of burn rubber and fuel. I was fortunate to be there at 2004 and 2006, meaning V10 and V08 era 🙏🏻
I have only smelt the new cars with the e10 fuel and it is kinda gross the smell
Or all the airhorns...
This video is a gem! These were good times for F1. Also beautiful father and son moment caught at 15:04!
I always hoped someone would recognize them and show them. Their reactions are priceless. :) Glad you liked the video.
I have been searching for the audio of the cars passing that spectator bridge. The deep explosive belches of backfire on downshifting into that braking zone were nothing I ever heard before. It was glorious, and I don’t think anyone has ever captured the sound, but this is close.
Yeah that belching was pretty sick im person, I remember thinking how cool that was as well. On some of the panning shots I think I get the sound pretty good but nothings like the real deal. :)
Great video!!! Great sound!!! Bring back V10 and V8's!!!!
An elegant sound, from a more civilized age.
@@sulphurous2656 not as clumbsy as turbo v6
HOLY SHIT. This how they used to SOUND!!!???? I'm fairly new to F1 this is my 3rd season and this season has been exciting. But man I wish I had became a fan during this era. These cars sound fantastic, it's orgasm to the ears.
Yeah dude. Ear orgasm, coudnt have said it better!
And those are "just" V8s... Now imagine the V10s ;)
Watch 2005 onboards for a real eargasm. The V10 was even crazier than this. 2007 had already downgraded to V8
15:34, that reaction is exactly how i remember it. The sound it goes through you 😂. I think if i experienced it again, like it was, after so many years the way its been, id cry.
you still can, not in a race, but there are some events that still give you a chance to experience that sound again
My only f1 races I have seen were at Indy 04, 05, and 06. Best screaming V10 sound on the planet. You hear it from a distance and then you open the door for the glass box and your ears explode with the best f1 noise on planet earth. It was so freaking cool! God I miss those cars.
This video is masterpiece even recorded on 2007 perfect quality
Thanks Burak! Thats a pretty awesome statement, most appreciated!! 1080p was definitely a rare thing back then, ot even F1's cameras were HD until 2011. :)
@@markschoennagel5076Very nice quality!
Nothing is better than a grid of 3 liter v10's at Indy😊
The only F1 race I've ever been to. Little did we all know this was to be the last F1 race at IMS, so I feel privileged to have attended and experienced that
Same. But hey we got to see hamiltons 2nd ever win and vettels 1st ever start. They cant take that away from us lol
1:22 Brought me to tears for some reason.
I knew exactly what you were talking about before clicking the link. So good!
@@markschoennagel5076 haha that’s awesome
I was there. I was like 10 years old lol good times
6:42 Rihanna playing in the background made me realise how much time has passed, somehow, I was having a good time and not an existential crisis before that
That's amazing, I've never noticed that before!
umbrella playing in the background
the sound of f1 v8
blocky cameras📸
man bring me back to the 2000s 😄 those were the days
what a soundgasm!
really miss it so hard..
I cringe at how "pussified" modern-day F1 has become...such a shame. Miss these cars. Thanks for the upload!
Kyle Niquette cars today are much faster
@@ben6993 but they look worse, sound worse, races are boring, teen drivers
Meh..
Mew Two
Races were boring back then as well. It’s not as if each and every race was non stop action. You get just as many good races per season these days as you did back then.
As for the sound, the F1 V10 is without a doubt the greatest noise ever to be made from a car. It would be great if they brought them back. However, why would they when they can get just as much power from a much smaller engine that uses considerably less fuel and doesn’t need to be rebuilt after every race.
Complaining about teen drivers is pretty silly as well, what’s wrong with that? Young, hungry drivers looking to make a name for themselves, racing against seasoned veterans, youth vs experience is always great to watch.
Don’t get me wrong, I fully appreciate your opinion, and if you truly don’t like modern F1 then nothing I’m gonna say is gonna change your mind. I just think people are too quick to judge and look at the past with rose tinted glasses.
@@mewtwo.150 Biggest thing is they feel they have a responsibility now to be a platform to develop engine technologies. Highly efficient hybrid era now of course, and they are pushing for 100% sustainable fuel by 2030. Being mainly European racing it makes sense, the majority support eco and ev tech and so it's best for the engine suppliers to develop the tech and prove it on track before converting it to road cars. Formula E is interesting once people start understanding the EV tech growth that has happened in just a couple years, nearly double the storage with a quarter of weight gain, not bad.
@@mewtwo.150 The cars are also rather large now.
3:22 Fernando my Boy on the run !!
Man this is amazing. I miss the loud obnoxious screaming Formula 1 engines. Just being there would be a thrill, feeling the sound waves go through you. The detuned V10 two-seater doesn't come close to the amount of energy the cars put out in race trim.
Yeah Vince, me too. :( so sad. Halo and these miserable hybrids have completely turned me off. Funny I havent watched this in while, I still grin ear to ear when I see those qualy laps! Most insane thing I have ever seen in racing.
I was there and it kills me watching this. Makes me more nostalgic and miss it more.
@@markschoennagel5076 The halo is a good thing.
@@maarten699 safer isnt always better
@@Gladkutje less chance of another justin wilson incident yknow
Wow Mark this is amazing footage and @10:36 the Ferrari pope cracked me up. F1 fans are great!!
I don't know if it's the same guy but there's a Ferrari pope that still comes to the USGPs at COTA. Also everybody was living in 2007 while the Mercedes guy was living in 2014!
I went to the first race at Indy in 2000. Unbelievable sound. One car going full throttle down the main straight in practice was so loud, without earplugs I would have been rendered deaf in five seconds.
This is truly one of my favourites F1 fan footages that I have ever seen. Simply beautiful. And in HD! (Which at the time it wasn't common).
I appreciate that! It makes me happy so many people seem to enjoy it. I was lucky to have access to that camera HD was definitely rare back then.
Thanks for the Great footage dude.... miss those days
Went to a few of those GPs at Indy, I remember one where Schumacher won in the rain. Man those cars were perfection. I miss the original road course!
That sound man, thank you so much
Yeah man. That sound. :)
Hamilton's second win and Vettel's first race, both captured from the stands in HD. Well done, man. Well done.
hamilton stupid
@@simondko93 Ah I see, some Hamilton haters who have nothing to do with their life
Yes I do know how hypocritic is he, but 91 wins isn't easy for a driver to beat, even in a rocketship Mercedes. Sometime u just got to put down hate, and start appreciating of other great work
@@curtistang7818 no
@@simondko93 haters do be like that...... I won't force u to change ur opinion tho so nvm
Took my Dad to his first Grand Prix that year. Great memory! I must admit Honda had the best exhaust note that season followed closely by BMW in my opinion.😉
1:45 I attended every F1 event at Indy, and every time trial on Saturday we sat in the same area as you.
This was the last F1 race my dad and I have gone to. I miss these days, not just for the cars, but also because everything was relatively reasonably priced! Looking at COTA tickets is depressing, not to mention the cost of Miami or Vegas.
Ive been to a dozen grand prix and this was by far my favorite. I went to Spa 2 years ago which is my favorite track but ended up hating it. GA was so packed you couldnt move. But yeah, cheap tickets, all access all weekend except for the race. So good.
Fantastic footage! I was there that year and remember seeing Schumacher enter the front stretch at an insane amount of speed in his screaming V8 Ferrari inches from the wall…
Stunning visuals. The quality looks like it was recorded last week, let alone 2007! Brilliant! I seriously miss how these machines used to sound - music to the ears!
No kidding… the sounds, the glorious sound.
Here crying cause me and my family would go to montreal every year and the memories are just flooding me with emotions plus my mom and dad where car people and my sister. I love formula 1 and really can't be with out it
i was there in the 2nd deck on outside the end of banked turn. the v8s sounded absolutely amazing and i understand the big deal to bring them back.
Nice video, it's a shame what they did to this sport since 2014!
1000 bhp, more downforce as ever, great overtaking. What are you talking about?!
people just bitch about the cars because they don't make you deaf anymore,
the modern cars still sound really good and aren't exactly that quiet either
@@1106Winter the sound isnt that good
@@ecksoal well the old cars still sound miles better and i think the modern cars sound alright and arent exactly quiet but i still really want the old cars and i dont care if they are slower
@@1106Winter DRS overtaking?
Bring back that sound F1
This video is incredibly good. Once in a while, I watch this video to relax for a bit. The flybys, the atmosphere, wow. I really love the shots of the cars flying by at the oval. Thank you so much for this.
Thanks Dani! Really appreciate the nice words. :) Every once in a while I sit back and do the same, I really miss that sound... The camera I had was one of the first "pro-sumer" HD cameras there was. On some of the panning shots its gets stuttery or blocky because the camera couldnt process all the data lol. Thanks again!!
Oh the stuttering doesn't matter, I'm just grateful those videos exist. This really gives the feeling as if I'm there, which is cool as I've only ever been to champcar and motogp and never to f1. Just wish I'd be able to hear a grid of great sounding cars in the future.
@@dani02_mmd Go to a WEC or IMSA race, incredible sounding cars still. Le Mans is by far my favorite racing experience, we found a campsite right along a straight, around 3am we returned to camp for a little rest, its amazing to lay there and identify every car by its sound. The corvettes with their crazy low rumble, the Porsches RSR's wail like a banshee, loudest car I've ever heard..its all so good. :) Glad you like the vid, makes me happy its appreciated!
Wow these 2007 cars are just on onother level 😳 👌 👏 🔥
Thanks for the video, amazing sound..!!!.
Again the most awesome f1 fan video ever
Damn dude. Thank you.
crazy sound
Went to most of these Indy F1 races. Took for granted the cheap prices until Cota and Miami. Jeez. Shoulda went to all. I live in Indiana.
I think I missed the last 2
Incredible. The cars looks so good but the sound is phenomenal.
Thank you for posting this! I remember parking outside during FP3 and hearing this …even “outside” IMS while parking was absolutely amazing.
Hearing and feeling this in person back then. It sounded so violent. This vid only gives you an idea of it. I was sitting by turn 1. I forgot who had the loudest explosive downshifts…maybe the Ferrari’s or the BMW’s. Someone please correct me on this.
Then seeing VET and wondering who the hell was driving the BMW. No smartphones back then lol.
nothing like f1 sound , awesome job dude
Thanks man, when i made it i kinda thought it was shit but comparing it to F1 now its pretty fing awesome. glad you liked!

hey thanks for uploading this gem. :-)
The crowds in this video compared to now are crazy
I was thinking the same.
No doubt the sound is amazing. But that viewpoint you had from 8:30 to about 11 minutes really shows how amazing the braking is on those cars. Wow. Doesn't look real how they can slow enough to take that turn.
Whats also amazing is that it breaks the compression technology of the camera. It cant process the blurred background and unblurred camera which is why it gets all blocky aka compression artifacts! but yeah, the braking broke the camera. :)
La calidad de imagen, parece como su fuera de hace unos años. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Gracias, pude usar una cámara HD semiprofesional desde donde trabajo. ¡¡Muy afortunado!!
For anyone saying Americans does not love F1, I defer them to this video! Great Footage Mark!
LOL thanks man. There are some F1 nutters here the bummer is on the west coast most races start at 5am!
Miss these sounds, the sound of F1
F1 car + Oval tracks = Light Speed
i really need to experience this in person one day, even if its only hot laps 🥵 too bad they're gone
Yeah man
i remember finding this video on a torrent site years ago but i was never able to download it due to the lack of seeding, cant believe i finally got to watch it after a decade +, thanks to the Legend who filmed this and to UA-cam's algorithm lol
Wait what!?!? This video made it on a torrent site?? thats amazing!!! Really happy to hear you enjoy it. I never thought when I brought that camera to the track it would turn into something so memorable. I watch it every once and a while and damn, it sure aged well! Cheers dude, you made my day.
Fantastic footage. Especially when you were track side. I would've loved to gone to Indianapolis. Hopefully they will come back one day? However unlikely with Austin and now Miami granted a race.
Austin wasnt nearly as fan friendly as Indy, I bet Miami will be worse. To be able to walk around to all the different sections on practice and qualy day is a rare thing at an F1 race, at least the ones I've been to. Thanks for the kind words!!
17:14 is the exact reaction I wish for in the future when people go to F1 races, but it won't happen with these engines...
totally agree.
I thought at first you were talking about that kid and has dad a minute or so earlier. You meant my goddddd dammmm lolol yeah that moment is my all time favorite in motorsports. Ive been to a dozen f1 races, Le mans, sebring, NHRA, Indy 500 and a bunch more, that was the most impressive feeling of incredible speed/performance/aero/sound. bonkers.
Thanks man for going closer and not moving camera too much...your coverage is better' than the coverage on tv
Glad you enjoyed. :)
@@markschoennagel5076 it's 1 million times better than the F1 today .. it's like vaccum cleaner now ..you video is damn nostalgic
Thank You : )
Man how I miss those days
Yeah man, me too. meee too. Halo kinda sucks and the "power units" are horrible.
Mark Schoennagel yeah I mean I can understand the halo for safety reasons but the new sound is just lame. The scream is what formula 1 is, REAL formula 1

15:40 he is soooo right. i remeber my first f1 race live at track in 2002. the sound of the V10s and later the V8s is... there is nothing like it, you felt that sound in your body
Empty stands, no wonder Indy was cancelled. I miss the sound.
D. 808LF It was practice at that point
Also is 2007, lot of people in USA quit after the 2005 gp scandal
@@mewtwo.150 who cares
God I miss the sound these cars make. Why can’t F1 go back to engines like this
2021 still amazing tô listen those v10 !!!
These are V8’s not V10’s. F1 started using V8’s in 2006 (except Toro Rosso they were using a restricted V10) and stopped using V10’s in 2005.
Damn they came down the straight on full blast on lap 2 even tho the tractor was outside turn 1, right in the way of any car that would have spun.
Dangerous af, but it was a different time back then.
i feel like people act like clear video was only invented recently but im pretty sure we got our first hdtv around this time, its not really as rare as people think. i remember when we first got that tv only certain channels offered HD
I didnt have an HDTV until 2-3 years after recording this which is rather hilarious. I edited it on a highend PC at the time which only had a 1280x1024 monitor. I dont think I actually got to see it in all its glory until a couple years after I shot it.
man 1080 in 2007 was insane
:)
amazing footage!
Thank you!
The sounds from 15:00 … beyond words.
Yeah dude, yeah! Im amazed how well the sound was captured. Everytime I hear it, it's exactly how I remembered it. When I got home and started editing this, even then I knew it captured it perfectly.
Where we are walking into the main grandstands, that metal roof was insane it was so loud with sound reverberating. My ears rang for a week! Glorious!!! Glad you liked.

Weird right! funny, Ive always wondered what was going on there.
Best section to see the cars and hear them break so late into the corner.
Heavenly music
The V10 is the greatest racing engine ever. EVER
Without question.
Nice, but no V10 in 2007 anymore (2005 was last season with (castrated) V10) All cars were V8 in 2007. Also this was Sebastian Vettels first Grand Prix.
Indeed! Being a fellow German made it all the much better.

those were v8s. great sound, much louder than v10s but the v10 were more emotional.

I made it to one F1 race...the 2005 US gran prix and I will never go to another. I've been to 7 Indy 500's and going again this year. My wife just text me, she's getting into F1 now watching that drive to survive show. She's working out going to this race, or maybe another one. I told her I don't have time for it. I think it was David Coulthard said on the 2005 broadcast, this will leave a bad taste for a long time. It certainly has for me.
Yep that race sucked. Blame michelin and boycott that instead.
