- F1 went over the top with dramatic driver introductions for the Miami GP, and most of the stars of the show weren’t fans of it

Of course Hamilton enjoyed it. Dude is a walking PR department.
Hamilton is the quirky weird one
He likes anything that gets black people involved. I thought the cheerleaders were hot but not interested in the rest.
Was about to say, dide loves the attention
he's also.. not white 😏
Why won't the princess like the attention?
Hamilton: "what did max say? Yeah the opposite of that"
Nah they just have opposite personalities. Neither of them will say something just to disagree with the other.. it just comes naturally
@@scimmytag so good to have someone that knows them both personally answer to my comment, thanks 👌
Hamilton has always been a bit of a diva and attention whore, so this type of environment is perfect for him.
@@DazeMusicTV i like the reply :)
@@XBullitt16X Thank god you know him so well, Wikipedia just won't give me this kind of information, obviously, as only people who have spent private time with him would really have the insights.
So we're truly fortunate to have one of his friends just puke it out in the open, thank you so much and please tell him one of his fans said hi next time you hang out with him.
Formula 1: "No more grid girls!"
Also Formula 1:
@queen buggo most truest thing ever 😭
Those are cheerleaders man. It’s an American thing
@@_________. Arent they just grid girls for american sports?
@@abc-oq7dt what’s a grid girl by definition?
@@_________. Same thing as a cheerleader, just without the pompoms
The fucking dead silence when each of them walked out ☠️
Bruce buffer introducing Checo in Vegas has to be the most cringe thing ever 😅😅😅
Fernando's point is a good one. If F1 think it's so great, then they're basically saying they prefer the American fans to every other country
That is exactly my point. There would be a lot fewer people complaining if F1 made the same effort with marketing in other countries. But I have the feeling that the other tracks are taken for granted. Especially in Europe.
There are market realities. That's a nice way of saying, from the premier league to Wimbledon, the US and Chinese markets are the most sought-after.
Part of it is they’re still trying to build a fan base in the US. While F1 has grown F1’s popularity is minuscule compared to any of the major pro sports, college sports (which is very regional), or NASCAR. What they don’t realize is all the celebrity nonsense they add in Miami does nothing for the American fans who already enjoy F1 and doesn’t bring in new fans NOT at the race.
I hope they don't start to introduce such travesty into other GPs. We are here for racing, not circus.
@@Photatum I don't think they should do the same everywhere as in the US. What I meant was that they should at least put the same effort into the other countries as they do in the US...
I wish Kimi was still there just to see what he would have done 😂
"I was taking a shit"
It's just a hobby for him anyway
Prolly woulda been all like “buwahhh if you are going to wake me up there should at least be ice cream … or drink”
Nothing, he would have been chillin somewhere else
He would just walk.
Why are all US sports events over-shadowed by the showbiz parts that don't add to the sport itself?
(Look at the Superbowl - the half-time show gets more time than during the season and as much reporting as the game.)
Yanks are all about the fanfare. It's an infection
Because money. The Super Bowl is watched by over 100 million people. The halftime show matters A LOT to the NFL as a business.
It allows them to charge $3,500 for the cheapest ticket.
Because American is a business and the superb bowl is the most watched commercial of all time.
Well the Super Bowl is different
My biggest issue with it was that it was most likely the first time LL Cool J said their names in his life.
He did pretty well. Whose name did he fuck up?
@@Parker-- I never said he fucked up anyone's name.
@@TangoNevada Then why would it matter to the presentation?
@@Parker-- I already said why.
@@TangoNevada Then it is a meritless complaint. Would you rather he stumbled threw it but had stumbled through their names before and stumbled through their names again on air or said their names correctly the first time on air?
As an American I was embarrassed by it. Even worse is the drive to the podium.
I'm honestly imagining Max riding to the podium and just thinking "fuck i wish I broke the driveshaft again"
As an American I feel the same way!
Yes, they gave the worst of what we had and tried to glamorize it
Completely agree. This reflects badly on the vast majority of Americans. This was an embarrassment. As is the Miami "course" itself.
The worst was still last year when the 3 drivers had to step out onto the podium wearing football helmets.
From fake marinas to a cringe worthy drivers parade.... Welcome to the Miami GP
But Loowis liked the attention =')
That should be the intro rsther than what we actually got😂
Miami was just a teaser for LV.
Also normally I support Lewis as a driver but man his appetite for attention never ends.
Imagine the Vegas GP 😂
As a resident of Miami, it fits. A lot fakes/fraud and nonsense happening here.
Vegas gonna have all the drivers introduced like they in the main event of WrestleMania
Drop this GP immediately. America has no right to have 3 GP's.
As a Brit, I naturally feel the same, but then I think for a minute more and realise the US is a huge mini continent with 50 states the size of European countries. It has a population comparable to Europe and a market of a similar size. Except Europe has how many GPs? 10? 12?
I dunno. I suppose in a limited season where lots of nations want their own GP, having so many European ones and then now 3 US ones seems selfish. Countries such as SA and NZ surely could put on a great event, as could many others in the developing world who could really use to the leg up for their economy, does India have an event? I don't think it does, does it?
The Miami GP does seem to be a poor event, anyway. I suppose the thinking is that it hits the latin market in North America. Then again if that's the aim, why not Mexico? Mexico doesn't have one, right? What about the Caribbean? So many great locations rather than the stinker that is Miami.
They race in Mexico city
@@thegreathadoken6808 Mexico does have a race in F1
@@thegreathadoken6808 I personally couldn’t care less where the track was on the world map. What’s important to me is that the racing is good, and safe. America is 1/3 on that front, Vegas will be shit and Miami sucks. Cota is fine, but America has better tracks.
Cash is King
My biggest problem with it, was that the most respected F1 commentator anywhere in the world, AND a 3 time F1 world champion, weren't allowed inside that area. But tennis players, rappers and actors were welcomed with open arms. The day Sir Jackie Stewart gets man handled for being anywhere on the F1 grid is a day when we know they've all lost the fucking plot!
Oh and it was generally a terrible idea in itself anyway!
wait what? i only watched the youtube highlights. are you telling me someone disrespected sir jackie at a f1 event?
@broncobalboa8730 oh yes! Sure you will find a clip on UA-cam
@@ThePippin89 this is outrageous!!! man i have been a fan since the early 90s, a hardcore fan since late 2000s and over the last 2-3 years it seeems to be slipping away from my likings cause they keep doing stuff that nobody wants and they ignore the stuff we do want....
@broncobalboa8730 yep almost exactly the same as me. My earliest memory is Senna dying when I was 4. The new owners have pulled a lot of new fans into the sport with stuff like drive to survive. But it seems to be at the expense of the existing fan base.
@@ThePippin89 i tried to keep calm over the last few months with the hardcore fans shitting all over the american influence, and i did enjoy the first 2 seasons of dts, but the last two years...man that aint it. not sure if im just getting old and im stuck in my ways but at the same time i am cool with changes as long as it makes sense. then again, making sense to my point of view haha. in the end i guess its what happens in all sports, the money leads the way.
If this is how Miami is like, imagine Vegas........
confetti fireworks and everything chaos with dancing shit and singing and idk clown circus for drivers intro parade
I can feel the Pain already
I'd prefer not to, thanks.
@@jimbojqmbo I am afraid you are spot on correct
Oh no, I hadn't thought of that!
Max Verstappen said this was "not necessary" and I can wholeheartedly agree with him.
Of course Hamilton loved it 😂
That only makes sense because the people who performed the intro are Hamilton's friends
ahhh, makes much more sense now.
I didn’t watch the intro entirely but was he the only one to greet and hug the announcer? Because then, like you say, if they are friends he isn’t likely to speak badly on him
Hamilton wants to be a cool American celebrity but he's just a corny British guy onc3 all the smoke settled
@@willjimenez9013 Except he doesn’t wanna be American at all, and is the greatest driver of all time… Who are you i wonder? 🤔
@@raveninnsbruck9166 someone with insight.
If Kimi had been on stage, He would’ve walked right through the stage, not stopped, not waved, not smiled, literally just walked by. He would’ve ghosted every single person on the stage, including the stage itself…
Probably happy he left when he did, before F1 did this. He had his fun in the time F1 was more about racing and car, and less about the investors and glamor.
He wouldn't even have been walking. He's be sleeping.😂
It is like a hobby for him so...
Kimi would have been hanging out at the ice cream machine...
Or maybe he'd be taking a shit
It was so bad, let alone the fact that there were intros, the announcer clearly didn't know any of them and sounded like he googled them just before the race. Introducing Leclerc as "competed for a race last year" is criminal
Rumor has it that Hamilton also thanked the fans for coming out.
he's very grateful
@Valinho666 Sure, but he says the same thing at every race. It's well rehearsed.
He should come out himself..........
Mr sales pitch does it again. 🙄🙄
seb timed his exit perfectly.
He still had to do it at the 2017 Cota Gp unfortunately
Nah, Kimi did.
Yeah he left the year before Aston was good
@@flowerpower26 but that enterance was atleast good tho
Not really, I think he would’ve happily taken the 2nd best car and a little cringe

Not suprised that LH Likes it 🙃
He would never Say anything negative about the US races. He’s said it before, Cash is King.

@@amjan yea diva that’s a better then every driver on the grid and has the most f1 titles ever
Of course. He is a household name in F1 circles here in the US. I think he got the loudest applause when he was introduced. It's a matter of opinion, some liked it, some didn't.
@@cornbaIISchumacher has 7 while Hamilton has 6 though
@@cornbaII i don’t want to put shit on his talent but he’s one of the only drivers, if not the only one on the grid right now who’s driven the longest and consistently been in high performing cars, and it shows because the car sucked in 2022 and he was barely even able to squeeze points out of it at times, the start of 2023 echoes the same situation, same can be said for verstappen, the only reason why he’s walking away with it so easily is because the Red Bull overpowers every other car by an insane margin, with barely any competition in the field to go against it for long enough, similar thing happened around the start of the T-H era with Mercedes just blasting off, once again, not trying to shit on any of the drivers, but the car does a huge part in deciding if a driver does well or not
Not just the drivers, fans are also dont like it, just look at the comment section of Miami GP intro video in F1 official channel
Hamilton is always a yes man.
Alonso has an excellent point. Take something away and it'd be fine.
Certainly doesn't help American stereotypes
Most American stereotypes are true.
They are often loud and obnoxious ✅
They have a terrible education system ✅
They think every European country is socialist and teach ideologies of marx and Stalin ✅
No, it wouldn’t be fine. A driver parade is 200% more entertaining than this cringe fest
@@lor7780 lol no it's not. You're just used to the cringe.
Oh the spoiled littke rich kid needs his baabaa before the race. Poor thing. Doesn't help the European stereotype either
No American gives a damn. Y’all are just haters.
Sorry Lewis, disagree. On TV it just looked cringeworthy and took away valuable time for the drivers pre--race.
LH is cringe, what do you expect.
@@fiveromannumeralsnot imo
@@fiveromannumerals based off what? 🤔
@@christiansimmons630 Good driver who benefitted from having the greatest machine in F1 history for many years.
But his desire to draw constant attention to himself, the way he dresses when showing up to the paddock, trying to kick it with other celebrities to seem cool, his constant virtue signaling, and so on, it makes him pretty cringe to any real F1 fan.
@@pablovasquez83 are you talking about Schumacher? Or Vettel? Or Alonso? Or mansell? Or senna? Or Prost? 🤔
I sense a moron here…..you’re commenting on how he dresses and who he hangs out with 😂 of wow how pathetic of you
Define a “real f1 fan” because I know loads of “real f1 fans” who find it cringey that for years none of these drivers seemed to have a personality (ever watch Kimi Raikkonen in an interview?) it’s such a piss poor excuse to just attack someone who someone that has no relevance to the sport
Does your work place judge you on your own clothes? Or your friends in your personal life? I thought not……
honestly the world (f1 fans n non fans) would prefer really hot F1 showgirls holding umbrellas for the drivers on track as introduction rather than this typical hollywood stunt
bro said it... I'm gonna support... Yes... Grid girls were better than whatever this abomination was...
Goes to show how top tier professionals these men are.
Lewis loves nothing more than being the center of attention.
Yeap. He loves being a diva.
And you love hating on him because he's the greatest driver of all time ☺️

No way we got 2 more US GPs after this... Especially 1 in Las Vegas where this'll probably be 10 times worse 😭

Cota remains unmolested, just racing
COTA is great, I'm not excited about Vegas.
Of course Lulu liked it. He got the biggest intro, effin prema donna

Literally every single basketball game starts like that
Basketball is different + that doesn’t make it a good thing

Yeah I noticed on the broadcast they didn't even get a shot of him walking out. Embarassing and just flat out half-assed lmao
Got to agree with the drivers - just pointless tachy nonsense.
So do you believe that more people would turn up to a GP with zero added ambiance or anything. Just 3 days of running on a track for a few hrs, and go. Nothing but the racing. No flags, no hats, no merch, no beers, no dancing girls, no paddock hospitality. Just 20 cars on track nothing else. You would get a few thousand racing fans and that's that.
I grew up on F1, I remember when it was a sport, not a PR event. F1 currently has nothing to offer, I am enjoying other motor sports
I knew LH was gonna be the one that liked it. 😂
Lewis being a contrarian? Who knew!
Big shock. 🤣
Big ups for use of the word contrarian.
Social Justice Warrior, not suprised there.
I think he was just saying that for good PR. LH walked out with his AirPods in and did not look like he was enjoying it
Agreed. Not surprising in the least.
Just bring back grid girls, thatll keep us all happy 😂
Umm, the nfl does exactly what valterri bottas said no other major sport does
Ofc Lewis liked it. Stuff like that is 100% what he likes.

Someone call the cops. There's a driver that likes a bit of entertainment.
@@MohitSingh-mr5pz no YOU need to
as expected from the guy whose go to response to any question is....."to all the kids out there....."
Not the only sport. Football walkouts are pretty intense
NASCAR does driver intros at most races, although it's usually pretty professional intros that just let the drivers get the spot light for a few seconds before they go on pit road for pre race ceremonies
Yeah, driver introductions are pretty standard for American motorsports, I think it's just a cultural thing that F1 hasn't adjusted to.
Because Americans care more about show than actual racing, technology and tactics
That's why F1 has to keep distance from that
@@goxyeagle8446 I think on the contrary, NASCAR is far less of a spectacle than F1. F1 is very much an upper class motorsport, whereas NASCAR is middle-lower class. F1 travels internationally and exhibitions are in luxurious locations, I imagine many of the "fans" in the seats are just wealthy individuals who are out to enjoy the weekend/spectacle, whereas NASCAR fans who travel to sit at a run-down oval track are far more in tune with the racing
@@cameron9292no discount to what you said, but I would much rather watch people go around very intricate circuits, with many corners, following car brands I love, with drivers I love more. Imo it's better than watching the same 3 or 4 brands go around an oval
And if you want cheap or "low class" racing, go to a rally event. I've been to a lot of amateur events and I went to the Croatia WRC last year (I forked out all of my savings, which wasn't much anyway lmao) that is pure speed. Plus the amateur events are loads of fun too, it's really cool to see a suped up Citreon battle it out with a BMW with bits falling off. Had the privilege of being in the passenger seat of a rallycross event at Lydden Hill, and it was amazing
Yeah because NASCAR has people who know the drivers names, or the drivers have names like Dale, more familiar names in their language. Not hiring rappers who know little about F1 or there drivers.
Europeans will say "look what the Americans have done" when the Americans are cringing just as much if not more 💀
just another reason to watch endurance racing
I literally cannot endure that type of racing.
welcome to america where everything is a cheesy marketing opportunity
I didn't realize they interrupted their preparations for it.
Well obviously they did. they have their pre-race routine all set up because it used to always be the same, not they add shit like that making them run out as if it‘s the super bowl of course that disrupts their usual routine
"No other sport where competitors have their preparations interrupted 30 minutes before." How about EVERY OTHER AMERICAN SPORT?
People outside the sport just don't get how hardcore F1 really is lol
Lewis "my American accent is natural" Hamilton likes the American pre show
It's not an American accent, it's an accent a lot of Brits of Caribbean-African descent have. That said, yes, Lewis is definitely American as far as his interests go. Except of course, he, a champion of human rights, is also a royalist.
It was awful. Everything about it was awful and cringe. USA turning F1 into a clown show.

Give each driver a musical theme with a titantron of the their best career highlights or CGI of them body slamming other drivers.

What if Mazepin’s was just him spinning 💀
And recruiting Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler as the race commentators
Of all people, Lewis has to be the only one to say he actually liked it
Actually is a strong word. Thing about Hamilton is that he's a very Politically Correct person. Even if he hated it or disliked it he'd still say that it was fun.

The NHL and NFL do this too lmao
That bothered me haha. I completely agree that it was cringe (LL Cool J/whoever wrote those intros at least but the orchestra music in the background kinda got me going)but just relax and embrace it. If the growing popularity in the US wasn’t threatening Europeans then they wouldn’t care
@@polarpenguin3 Key difference between this and the NFL & NHL might be that those intros only happen right before the game starts, something that is literally impossible with motorsport because the drivers need to get into the cars afterwards. You don't see the NFL introduce the two teams competing in the Super Bowl and then have those players hang around on the field twiddling their thumbs for half an hour before the game actually starts. The NFL actually states that t-minus 20 minutes is the EARLIEST time before the game that a team can be required to end warmups.
Indy 500 driver intros are also a slightly different situation, because they happen close to an HOUR before the race, mostly dodging this problem in the opposite direction, while not taking as long to get through 33 drivers because they introduce them three-at-a-time and far more quickly
Oh yeah, and IndyCar only ever really does this at the 500, while F1 is planning to do this at MULTIPLE races, now.
Major means watched on a global scale. Indy definitely isn't that.
