Before you start, thank you so much for everything that you have shared this year in F1. I have been blown away by all the behind the scenes, which car did they drive, watches, helmets, women in F1, parents. But most of all the travel that you have endured to get to each race. I remember you getting your covid jab at Bahrain as a complement from the government of Bahrain. I will miss you. You must of had so much support from your team in Australia, and of course Your amazing wife. Thank you.
The reunion outside the hotel was so cute!! Lovely family!! Thank you for taking us along your F1 journey this year and the sacrifices you made to make it possible!!! Hears hoping to watching again next season!!
Thank you for taking us along with you this year Kym. I've followed each step of the way and it was highly entertaining and informative. Those restrictions are crazy btw. It was as if you stepped off the plane right back into April 2020. Good luck over the next 2 weeks, and I fully expect a LEGO update video soon!
The sheer idiocity of this whole process some Australian regions implemented is beyond amazing. There is no state of mind I can imagine in which any of this makes a single hint of common sense. I am amazed and deeply dissapointed in humanity. The worst thing is, they charge you 2000$ for being detained for 2 weeks, being atleast 4 times confirmed negative in the process. Stay strong Kym, and keep your mind healthy, good luck!
SCORE!!!! A Lego Grand Piano...that'll eat up some days Kym... Pace yourself. Thanks for a great year of coverage of the GP circus Kym, it has been effing awesome living vicariously through your travels and adventures.
GREAT TO BE BACK HOME !!!!!! HAVE A NICE REST ~~~~~ I have visited a dozen times to PERTH. I LOVE the PEOPLE, SCENERY, WINE and FOOD. Especially the FRASER'S Restaurant up at the hill with VERY NICE NIGHT VIEW and the FOOD. Look forward to visiting Cairns, Perth and other places ........
I must say, I got emotional with you when you documented your first return to Perth. wishing you the most restful and wonderful time off, thank you so much for your excellent documentary of the 2021 season and very much looking forward to what you have in store for 2022!
You can't tickle the ivories with that box but will sure give you something to do..... Welcome back to Oz mate.. Thank you so much for your brilliant vids and pics throughout this season. Hopefully be nice to catch up with Daniel on the farm at some time too. Well done legend..
The Lego piano seems infinitely more practical than rolling the baby grand into the room. Your wife is a pragmatic soul. Looking forward to seeing the stir crazy Kym as the two weeks rolls by… I’ve got a feeling that airport/hotel food is going to get old really fast.
Kym , I think I have seen every video you have made since starting your journey in March . I really looked forward to see your material on video . Thank you for the unique experience . Glad to see you back home in good health . Enjoy your stay home you deserve it . Look forward to your video even during winter break . Take care !
@@michaelzdanis3979 Danny Ric is coming home to Perth this year. Celebrities however, usually get to do hotel quarantine in luxury houses, and given Danny Ric has a farm, i suspect he will get to do it there.
@@jennyh3640 Just goes to show that although all animals are created equal, some are more equal than others. The Australian COVID rules are ridiculous, and getting more so in the face of omicron which may be as much as 70x as transmissive as delta.
We have almost no restrictions at all. I've not worn a mask in tge last 6 months, and only for a few days in total. I went out on the weekend with zero restrictions. If the world followed WA's lead, we'd be on the other side of this pandemic. But no... too many people think their "freedom" is worth years more global disruption.
I'm glad you're home, even if you're not quite "home home." I hope you're back home with your family as soon as possible. Too bad you'll miss Christmas with them. Enjoy the rest of your time off and thanks so much for taking us along with you on the 2021 F1 season.
Hey Kym, nice little burst of your mirrored image in your hotel in a 🇧🇷 ‘ian photographers bib…. Best wishes from Shoalhaven in NSW. loved your blogs throughout this year.
These rules are ridiculous. incredible. I'm sure you're just happy to be home after a long time away, its going to feel great to embrace your family again. Thank you for everything you did this season, it was great to see all the behind the scenes action. Looking forward to next year :D
Makes you wonder doesn't it, what was the point of the vaccine and constantly being tested if you're still treated like a Jew carrying the plaque? The world has embarked on fascism and most people seem to not care. No wonder they gave us all phones and computers so we feel we are free.
Loved each and every video I watched, which is at least 90% of them. It was fun, and an honor, to go with you this journey. Season grettings. Best wishes for 2022.
Followed you since the start of your journey, and cannot thank you enough for everything you have posted on the various social media channels, take care, rest & relax and enjoy being home with your family (eventually), all the best from Argyll, Scotland.
A big thank you Kim for having some of these great photos from Trackside when does absolutely nutty season for the fight for championships Spend your holidays well and stay safe out there
Your channel was integral part of 2021 season for a lot of people, I hope you will have some more material for upcoming months until new season starts, but more important is for you to rest and spend time with your family
I have followed you the full journey it has been brilliant. Sorry you have to quarantine for a fortnight. Once again thankyou for making the formula one experience awesome
Welcome home Kym, you probably need some quiet time after a hectic F1 season. Thoroughly enjoyed watching your videos. Season’s greetings to you and your family.
To clarify for some people - the immigration card that Kym was holding up in the plane has been around long before COVID, and it's essential for passengers, as Australia's biodiversity and ecosystems are critical to maintain as we have lots of wildlife and plants unique to Australia. The two-week hotel quarantine is only applicable to Western Australia (where Perth is) as a result of the WA State Government being ultra-conservative on re-opening, which has been a hot topic in the news. In most other parts of Australia, where vaccine rates are higher, you can quarantine at home for a couple of days till you return a negative test after the plane trip.
Nice clarification Stuart. Australia does cop some bad flack regarding 'quarantine camps' and masks but these circumstances are nothing new given the 1918 pandemic also saw masks, isolation, distancing, quarantine and no large gatherings initiated by governments worldwide..
Man that whole process is insane to go through! 14 day quarantine over Christmas even though you aren't sick at all. Crazy!Thanks for the little trip report though, it made for a good video. Merry Christmas!
Glad to see you made it back to Perth safe and sound but gutted to see you have to spend in hotel quarantine during Xmas time. At least you are fortunate to come back home during this busy time. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas Kym. Sorry you have to spend it locked up. But that's what you get for living the life of the high octane and the fast corners all caught on your camera. Love from all your fans
I guess your quarantine period ended today. I hope all went well and you've finally met your family. Thank you for all your videos and showing us a different side of F1. Looking forward to 2022!
Thank you so much for ALL your posts. As I have thoroughly enjoyed everyone. Hope you will have a lovely Christmas with your family. Ciao ciao Wayne ( from Seychelles)...
I'm sure it's great to be home... Almost. After traveling all around the world, dystopian Australia must seem like an out of body experience. Thanks for a WONDERFUL ride along on your F1 season. Cheers from Texas. See you in Austin, 2022!
Hi, only just found your videos through my son who's wife works for you! and of course we are F1 fans! Will watch your video in conjunction with DTS when available. Wishing you and yours a fabulous Christmas!
Certain, um, elements in the States are depicting Australia-in-COVID-time as an authoritarian hell with people confined to their houses 24/7 and constantly surveilled by drones. Doesn't much look like there are any flames roasting you, Kym. (With a few good books, a computer connection and a telly and reasonably decent food, two weeks in the Inter seem more than bearable) Maybe this is why there've been a little over 2, 100 deaths in Oz, compared to better than 800,000-and-counting in the US where a jab and a mask are regarded as manifestations of government tyranny. Even adjusted for the considerable differences in our respective populations, your country has done yeoman work during the pandemic, to say the least. Really enjoyed your take on F1 and enjoyed at least as much your accounts of your travels between venues. And I continue to feel not a little envious! May your hols be happy and merry -- during and after quarantine. Be well always.
Kym many thanks for all the videos . they gave me personally a great in- site to the sport that I have followed since the mid 60's . Looking forward to next year , have a good Christmas when you leave the hotel

You must of had so much support from your team in Australia, and of course Your amazing wife. Thank you.
Thanks Kym for sharing these great moments with us. Enjoy the holiday with the family...in 3 months the roller coaster starts again..
The reunion outside the hotel was so cute!! Lovely family!! Thank you for taking us along your F1 journey this year and the sacrifices you made to make it possible!!! Hears hoping to watching again next season!!
The pleasure has been mine Corey. Cheers
I have enjoy out the season final of Kym back in hotel In Perth Australian and Sebastian Vettel image from Abu Dhabi F1 grand prix in 2021.
Your Lego Piano!!! You must have been a good boy to get that! But opening your Xmas present early might put you on the naughty list for 2022!
A giant Lego set is a PERFECT gift for someone stuck in quarantine. Don't go crazy and keep up the excellent work!!
It was nice seeing you on my fav segment of a weekend's broadcast.
Ted's Notebook!

I'm glad you're back in Perth but sorry you have to spend Christmas in a hotel room. The Lego piano will come in handy!
Thanks @Kym Illman for the whole year!! Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas :)

Look forward to the build updates on the piano. Cheers Kim.
so happy to know you are back home and with you family soon

Enjoy your stay.
Big punishment there.
That's actually ridiculous! Good luck with that, hope you get through it okay
Thank you Kym, you are brilliant, hang in there!!!
Thanks for the tour of the F1 world Kym and glad that you didn't lose anything on the way home 🙂
I must say, I got emotional with you when you documented your first return to Perth. wishing you the most restful and wonderful time off, thank you so much for your excellent documentary of the 2021 season and very much looking forward to what you have in store for 2022!
Black Rapid strap!!!!! Love it.

Welcome back to Perth Kym. Would have been funny if Danny Ric was on the same flight.
Thank you for your insights into this amazing F1 season.
Welcome back ,lol.. Go to isolation prison for 14 days first..
Danny Ric lives in Monaco. No reason to put himself through this level of self-punishment.

This has been amazing journey. Thank you so much for sharing far and wide. Have a good holiday season. Looking forward to next season.
Kym.. You are a legend.. Stay safe and stay passionate..
I'm glad you're home, even if you're not quite "home home." I hope you're back home with your family as soon as possible. Too bad you'll miss Christmas with them. Enjoy the rest of your time off and thanks so much for taking us along with you on the 2021 F1 season.
Thanks for your best wishes Michael
Hey Kym, nice little burst of your mirrored image in your hotel in a 🇧🇷 ‘ian photographers bib…. Best wishes from Shoalhaven in NSW. loved your blogs throughout this year.
That’s a big bill for a mandatory stay.
Best to you. Great watching some of your video’s during the season.
I've heard as much as $3000+. It's cheaper if you share the room with somebody, if you don't drive each other nuts in 14 days.
Glad you made it back home safe, Kym. Be well!
That lego set is brilliant. Livestream it that you are building it while answering questions about F1!
These rules are ridiculous. incredible. I'm sure you're just happy to be home after a long time away, its going to feel great to embrace your family again. Thank you for everything you did this season, it was great to see all the behind the scenes action. Looking forward to next year :D

Yeah it’s not that bad
It was almost this bad in Canada in certain parts but they removed it. the truckers had a point with this
Loved each and every video I watched, which is at least 90% of them.
It was fun, and an honor, to go with you this journey.
Season grettings.
Best wishes for 2022.

Glad to see you home safe, I couldn't imagine being away from your home country for that long
I'm sure it's great to be home... Almost. After traveling all around the world, dystopian Australia must seem like an out of body experience. Thanks for a WONDERFUL ride along on your F1 season. Cheers from Texas. See you in Austin, 2022!

Thanks for the year, Kym.
