I dont really collect autographs, but the one I did get was, for me, the greatest driver of all time... Ayrton Senna.
I met him at tyre testing at Silverstone in 88, he had finished for the day and was in the paddock just getting in to his Austin Montego hire car with his model aeroplane in the back and there was just me and him about. I was on the other side of the car and called "Ayrton" and he put his hand up, said hello, then actually came round the car to come and speak to me. I got his autograph but within 2 seconds we were surrounded by tens of people all doing the same, but it was amazing that he was so friendly and humble and it is a moment I treasure and will always stay with me and just wanted to share the story. Value of autograph.... priceless (well to me)
Keep it forever. Keep it. Even if someone offers you 1 Billion Dollars. Keep it - pass it on over generations . Never Lose it .
My F1 hero, I watch a race with ayrton in even now still at least once a week.... What a driver he was 🥺🥺
This guy got three legendary F1 driver's autographs in one night. AND one from a member of arguably the biggest ever band in the world. Talk about being lucky!
I will not be forgetting that night for the rest of my life
@@KymIllman what did you have for dinner Kym?
@@Madge104 Power of Porridge ®
The real question is how do I get one with kimi without annoying him?
Give him the drink
when he's drunk
@@rfs6517 oh that video when he's drunk... soo soo good! He is giving out autographs and partying like it's nothing!!!
"Yes Kimi, you WILL have the drink, if you sign" :-)
You don't
I remember when you told me to wait after practice at Singapore to get autographs, I waited until 3 am and left extremely happy with several photos and signatures, thanks Kym!!
I am delighted to hear that Aarush!!!
Where did you wait? And was it after Friday practice?
Do you mind sharing where is the best place to be in Singapore GP? I am going there for my first ever Singapore GP and dying to get Sebastian signature on his poster!!!!
@@nicodharmaputra7109 Sure, I waited outside the paddock entrance (near the flyer until 2-3am when they were leaving. I recommend you get as close to the entrance as possible so be there a bit early (miss a bit of FP2)
@@aarushyendamuri thanks a lot!! I will try my luck
I want a drunk Kimi's autograph, it's clearly worth more.💯😂
Just make sure he has the drink button turned on lol😂
i think a sober kimi authograph worth more considering kimi is more or less drunk all the time
I went to the driver autograph sessions at the USGP last year. There was a gentleman behind me that had a photo of Kimi on the podium when he won in 2018. I tried to get it signed for him, but Kimi looked at it and waived it off. I couldn’t understand why he would do that until you mentioned how Alonso won’t sign something that’s not from his current team.
Yes, I watched Fernando do it one day. I thought I had pictures of it and spent some time searching my database but couldn’t find it.
Michael Schumacher would happily sign Ferrari stuff when he was at Mercedes. There are some videos from Monza with fans hounding him.
I got Kimi to sign a Ferrari plaque with a 1/18 model of his 2007 championship winning Ferrari, when he was driving for Lotus.
@@barisondude7673 Schumacher would usually be the last of the drivers back in his Ferrari days. He even once missed a flight because he signed autographs.
Could you imagine the silent treatment if you stopped and asked Kimi for a photo
back in malaysia met kimi in thr hotel. I was too scared to ask a picture he approached me and i took a picture then he left quickly to avoid the other fans lol
Yes. In the WRC paddock in Germany 2011 and last year in the paddock in Spain during preseason testing. But I got my photographs with him!
I got to sit in Kimi's car at China 2012 and got a photo ;)
Kimi is a different one i think if you bother him like before qualy or before a race he wouldn’t stop for you just right timing and don’t rush him as the other guy said kimi approached him I think he picks someone to take a picture in the paddock that doesn’t want it so desperately but if he’s drunk well HAHAHAHAH you’ll surely get it
@@jaysss6636 lol show up to him with a bottle of vodka, pour him a shot and give it to him
he'll surely give you an autograph then
Thanks for mentioning my autograph from Lando :) loved the video!!
It was a great pic Anna.
I am very very lucky. I have michael schumacher's autograph, when we used to have race(s) in India.
@Bob Juff they still have but due to our govt, that circuit had to be closed. But I think it is open now and I think that various motorcycle companies like KTM test there.
Hey Mage, Funny to See You Here
@@nottcurious5284 lmao hahahahhahahahaha
@Divyanshu Singh lol
My most precious autograph is from Ayrton Senna, who in 1993 answered fanmail from a 14 year old Belgian kid - me - with a signed letter.
wow
that's awesome!
I wrote to Michael Schumacher in 2013. I was away for Christmas and came back to the house where an envelope postmarked 23 Dec 2013 included 3 signed photos of Michael that I sent for him to sign. Little did he or the world know what lay ahead for him 😢
I want to get kimi to sign a vodka bottle.
Give him one and have a second one ready to sign.
Kym Illman 😂😂😂🙌
Best way for the Belgian GP is during media day on thursday. You have to wait a long time, because all the gates open at once and a lot of people are present. But you have to choose between the autographs or a pitlane walk, which is a difficult choice. Got lucky in 2018 with Kimi, Seb, Leclerc, Stroll and Hülkenburg. Hamilton was about to sign my Ferrari cap and then thought "naw I'm out" and moved on.
In 2019 I got lucky with F2 drivers as Mick Schumacher just so happened to walk by. Was also close to a few F2 drivers during a media session on Saturday, but decided I didn't want an autograph or photo. Unfortunately an hour or 2 later one of them died in the feature race.
I was there that day. Won’t forget that.
I’m rewatching this and realised when I was in primary school, I’m now 17, that I sent a letter to Hamilton and receive an official autograph on a a3 poster/leaflet with his career statistics, starting in karting upto his days in the McLaren Mercedes team, hopefully I can find thst piece of memorabilia
That's insanely cool, and if you do sell it it could go for thousands
Thank you for the advice during last year's Singapore GP! Managed to meet almost all the drivers and met Sir Jackie, Martin Brundle and some reserve drivers too!
I feel super happy by having Vettel’s autograph.....not to mention how nice and humble he was by giving me attention and signing everthing I’ve asked 🙌🙌🙌🙌
When do you go to the track and how do you get it signed by Seb?
Love the "how difficult can i make this" @ 16:12 lol
I’m delighted someone stays till the end
I've got a personalized Dani Ric one when we had him in our restaurant and asked for his signature after serving his table, for me it's priceless and I will never sell it!
I entered a random torro Rosso online competition. Got signed photo cards of Daniil and Alex.
Pretty cool, considering Alex had already moved to RB.
Made my day, certainly
Although drivers may know that some fans are actually professional autograph hunters, it may actually be more beneficial for them to sign. First off, the more autographs they sign the lower the value others are making off them. But secondly, they know no every fan is able to meet them and that some fans want to buy their autograph. They'd rather the autograph that the fans are buying are real and not fake. If they don't sign the autographs, a lot more fakes will appear on the market, especially as the value of non-signers autographs are higher.
I love how Lewis loves the kids
Lewis got class and panache. C'est fou.ingretible.
😳
i had the pleasure of meeting ocon and gasly a couple of years ago, the nicest guys i have ever met. this was during a signing session and there were hundreds of people but both of them were nice enough to exchange a few words with other fans and myself too, charles handed me a photo of his with an autograph too but he was getting bombarded by legit everyone that was there because he had just been anounced as a ferrari driver. good times. wish i could go back
They both top blokes
I raced in the feature F4 race and met Kimi, Leclerc, and Giovinazzi in Shanghai 2019. Kimi and Giovinazzi lived in the Hyatt hotel and so did I. They both used the main elevator. I met Giovinazzi in the morning and astonishingly nobody around me seemed to notice him. Kimi is a big sensation in China, and hundreds of his fans waited in the hotel lobby. I finished my Friday track walk around 8pm, went back to the hotel and happened to ride the same elevator ride with Kimi alone, I was a bit star-struck and only said I was a big fan and wish him all the best, he nodded and said thank you. I met Leclerc on Saturday morning, he entered the paddock from the back, where F4 and PCCA teams are stationed. Got a few nice pictures.
Hospitality pass in China is cheaper than their face value, but no driver engagement session, at least for the Redbull paddock pass.
Interesting stuff. Thanks for sharing.
I mastered the autograph session at COTA. I’ve gone yearly and it has helped with getting a good spot. I was talking to a guy I’ve met at COTA a few times, about how Lewis’s autograph have changed over the years. And I replied “yes, I’ve noticed that too. It use to be like this....” and I showed him the tattoo on my wrist of Lewis Hamilton autograph I got in 2016. And he was blown away and replied “yesss, that’s the good style, he use to do.”
Last year Lewis accidentally signed my hat twice. He said “ I’ve already signed it” then signed it again. And I said to Lewis, “ I know. I’m getting squeezed by the crowd and can’t get my arm out. Sorry.”
Some people may think having two autographs on one hat is cool, but I wish it didn’t happen honestly. If I could transfer one to another hat, I would. Lol
People at the COTA autograph session act like ANIMALS ! So be prepared to get squeezed. I highly recommends sending your kids to the kids zone of the autograph session. The drivers send longer time there and it’s more safer for them
sadly remember when they (COTA) gave to us wristbands to attend to de sessions in a queue and the drivers were seated behind their tables. (2012 and 2013). Nowadays are a complete disgusting mess.
Would you mind giving some tips for the session to get autographs? I went to COTA last year and didn’t know where to go and I’m going back again this year
@@korrubz13 that’s because they were allowing the autograph session last year. Due to covid. Teams didn’t want to put there drivers out like that. It may be different this year
@@babiiblueboi how does it normally happen? Are you able to buy tickets to the autograph session?
@@Blackfintuna24 yeah I remember that. I didn’t get Lewis’s signature those years. I got Paul di resta and Adrian Sutil, I believe.
I don't really collect autographs but I do love getting selfies with the drivers and other team personnel. After the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in 2019, instead of going to the Killers concert, I went to the entrance of the paddock and waited for two hours to get as many selfies as possible. There was only about 20 other fans waiting so it was a golden opportunity to get selfies. It turned out I got selfies with all the drivers bar Hamilton, Vettel, Gasly, Kubica, Magnussen and Norris and many others including Helmet Marko, Fabio Quatararo, Fernando Alonso and Alain Prost. I couldn't believe my luck as I only discovered how to get to the paddock entrance that Sunday morning and I was originally planning to go to that concert instead until I felt like waiting outside the paddock entrance to meet some of the drivers after a fairly boring Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. I would say that the top three people who didn't want to have selfies were Kevin Magnussen, David Coulthard and Kimi Räikkönen. They didn't care whatsoever about the people who were trying to get selfies with them haha. I had to literally run up to Kimi as he was about to get into his car and leave the circuit. Unfortunately when Lewis Hamilton came out of the paddock, everyone swarmed him and it almost became a stampede. I decided to get out of the huddle and let my opportunity pass as there was a couple with a baby right in the middle of the huddle and it was getting very dangerous. Eventually Lewis told everyone to disperse as he saw the baby and was getting worried about it getting hurt.
I had an amazing opportunity to visit the paddock back in 2017 in Malaysia and Singapore back when I was a kid and had a lot of confidence. This video brought back a lot of memories. Such as Sir Jacky Stewart getting mad at me. Running to McLaren to chase Alonso and getting Lauda's signature. After the 2017 season a horrible thing happened that made me lose interest in F1. Watching this video brings joy and it helps me remember all the good and fun times.
What was the horrible thing?
Kym Illman i was very close to the family of an F2 driver/F1 test driver at the time. I dont know what happened or what I did wrong but they basically cut contact with me. I havent been able to reach them ever since.
@@evanyonathan9455 that's a bummer. Hope you can rekindle the peace with them.
Thanks for putting my Daniel tattoo story in there! It was certainly ballsy to ask him but it’s created a wonderful story and something I’ll always carry with me. He actually saw the finished result at Montreal last year, when I was allowed to briefly hop over the autograph session barrier - dan was certainly blown away!
Chav
And now it’s documented on UA-cam!!
I have Leclerc's one on my Italian flag!!!
6:55 Jimmy Broadbent on the lower side rofl
Lol🤣
I got mine for about 5 dollars each. You write a card, include a card to return to you and get the autograph. As simple as that. Unfortunately, the only one that never answered was Senna so I had to get one on track. It was 1993 at Imola. In 1995 at Imola, I gave it a Brazilian fan. The kindest letters you get are the ones from the lesser known and popular drivers, they even write you a letter and thank you for that.
Enjoyed this! Thanks for the story about George Harrison! That’s so cool to get him and Jackie like that. And yes, Jackie signs a wonderful signature every time. Nowadays he carries his own blue Sharpie pen to sign for fans. He’s very nice.
Nice Video. Meeting one of the racing stars is very special and memorable.
- Sir Jackie Stewart: even his autographs tells us, that he is one of the biggest gentlemen ever to race in F1. I got mine on a white sheet of paper, I will never forget my excitement, when I saw him.
- Nice hint at the end: get autographs, when they are younger and racing in F2 or even F3. So I got some from Webber, Heidfeld, Montoya and more - and the never forgotten "Gonchi" Rodriguez (always had time for a quick chat!) and Justin Wilson.
Interesting story on how I got my Valtteri Bottas autograph. My partner's dad works for Mercedes Canada and they are always invited to the race in Montreal with access into the pit lane, the garage along with private dinners with the whole F1 team. When he tried to approach Valtteri at the event he couldn't even get near him. It wasn't until the next day when they were invited to the garage to see the cars that he spoke to someone on the team, I remember he said it was a gentleman named Cameron. They had a nice chat and Cameron decided to go around back to ask Valtteri for his signature for us. This made the autograph even more special to me.
Also, I remember him showing me that there's a signed one for sale by Mercedes and it was priced at $400 Canadian dollars. Maybe because he is a Mercedes driver they are able to price it higher than what's on the internet?
Thank you for another great video, Kym! Hope you're enjoying the season :)
Well I’m not doing any travelling but it’s interesting watching the races on TV with my sons.
Maybe I should look into working for Mercedes🤷🏽♀️😂
I met Charles Leclerc outside Radisson Blu in Abu Dhabi last year
I have a signed Murray Walker Autobiography. His writing is immaculate and he took about 10 seconds to do it. Thanks Murray. I might have annoyed JYS at the Silverstone Heliport in 2019 when I door-stopped him to wish him a belated Happy Birthday.
Back at the 2018 canadian grand prix I was in the paddock with my father because he had relations with renault as he used to work for them in pr and knew cyril very well so they got us tickets and I got my karting helmet signed by niki lauda and EVERY DRIVER from the 2018 season but lewis hamilton I still have it cased up never wore it to kart race again lol. They even let us in the garage during fp1 to see the car up close when the mechanics worked on it a day I will never forget.
Well done!!
Managed to get Lewis to sign my mini helmet and managed to get a picture of him signing it which was even better haha
I want to do that next year. Any tips?
@@sergioc404 managed to do this in spa at the Thursday autograph session
@@jonathanbradshaw2247 Never been to one, but that’s my plan for this year. Do you have to get there super early? Do you have to buy the spot like at cons? Anything else to watch out for?
@@sergioc404 no you don’t have to buy a spot to go to the autograph session it’s included in your weekend ticket. I suggest getting there very early though because they only let a certain number of people in once it gets too busy
What track and where
I have a few from former drivers (Barrichello, Maldonado, Sato) as well as former and future driver Alonso. Got them at the 24h of Daytona Beach 2 years ago, came to the racetrack 4h early to be the first in line to get the Alonso one.
Best thing is, I got Alonso to sign a hat of mine that I got from driving a speeddown race as a kid. Good personal memory + signature of one of the all-time greats of F1...
Glad to help you on this video, Kym! Competing for autographs could be very intense in Europe and AsiaPac. I wonder how much the crowd is in Bahrain and Abu Dhabi GPs when it comes to autograph hunting.
What was virtually no crowd in Bahrain but Abu Dhabi is quite busy.
When I was at Silverstone last year I was lucky enough to get my old McLaren MP4-29 cap signed by Lewis, Carlos, Zak Brown and even Johnny Herbert. I really wanted to meet Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris but it wasn't to be, the one driver I would give anything to meet besides Daniel and Lando would be Jenson Button as I named my son after him when he was born in 2009 and even after all this time I've not met him, I would give my left leg to meet JB Daniel or Lando 🙏
All fine gentlemen
Another fantastic video for the (new) fans!
Danke, grazie and thanks.
I have Jensen Buttons in US Grand Prix hat when he did a session at a Target and I felt awful for him because no one showed up. Also have Jaun Montoya’s when he did a session here in Indy before a race. It was considerably more well attended.
I’ve got a McLaren winner’s T-shirt from 2008 that I’d love big Ron & HAM to sign & have kept it jst for that reason but will never be close enough to any for that to happen but I’ve still kept it jst in case...plus a 2009 brawn T-shirt for JB & Ross as well...🤞🤞🤞
You probably know this but, I know you can get Sebastian's autograph if you send him a picture you want of him. I only sent one from his current Ferrari days, after 2 months of waiting, I got it signed back and one official Ferrari one. Both were properly signed of course, and the official one is not printed. You can find more info on his website.
12:57 Kym Grosjean’s signature outside of the straight line hasn’t changed much since this video.
You can also get some signatures by mailing the team an envelope with your address and postage on it they will send you cards with a picture of the driver and an autograph. If you request it this way it will take some months to arrive but that is probably the cheapest way outside of meeting a driver, please note however that not all teams do this but I know that McLaren and Red Bull at the very least do this.
I wish I’d read this prior to doing my video.
but where exactly do you mail that to? just their HQ's? :)
pauline
Where to send depends on the team, but it is generally the headquarters. To get a sure fire answer try asking them via social media or email through fan forms that are often available on their websites. I would suggest waiting until the virus is completely gone as they may not even open mail just in case to prevent all spreading of the virus. This reddit post has some more information for you: www.reddit.com/r/formula1/comments/ac0tze/received_a_few_autograph_cards_today_see_comments/
Really been enjoying your videos! I love the insight into F1 off the track.
You can also go to the teams website and it’s already signed but I know Mclaren has it but I’m not sure about the other teams
Thanks for a great video Kym 👍🇦🇺
My absolute pleasure
The saddest part is how long it'll take me to get enough money to travel to Europe, buy a paddock pass , etc.
I'm 14 rn, but by the time all this happens I'll probably be too old.
Nice to hear the stories of Adelaide. I've been an official for many, many Australian GP's and have never been in the right area on the track or the opportunity to get close enough to a driver to get an autograph. I am often envious of those who have the time to hang around. Often while I'm doing my job at the track.
Looks like Jimmy Broadbent at 7:10
How was this as interesting as it was? Great video!
Last year at Silverstone i saw GR63 in a merc he got given, i got a selfie but i had stupidly not asked for an autograph
I have a Autograph from vettel. Was standing 3h on the Brandenburger Tor after his first WDC to get a good place in the 1/2 row. Worth it!
It’s a good feeling when you get what you want after waiting a while
I was lucky enough to get handsigned Max Verstappen, Alex Albon and Pierre signatures, dad works with Red Bull Racing and told them I was a huge fan, so they sent me the pictures as a surprise (this was back in mid 2019 when they swapped the drivers :PP)
Brilliant video!
I needed to hear that. I spent way too much time on this one.
Top Tip would be to go to something like the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The drivers are always happy to sign anything and also to take pictures.
One day maybe.
I got Robert Kubica autograph while he was leaving hotel before 2019 Hungarian GP race :) Esteban Ocon who was reserve driver didn't get a lot of attention so it was quite easy to get autograph or high five, some people even didn't recognise who he was :)
You just have to be on f1 trip groups on facebook to get insider info on logistics :)
One of my dreams is to get an autograph from Mika Hakkinen, he's one of my favorite drivers ever.
I have a Force India shirt signed by Ocon and Perez, got it framed and everything.
Ad is from 4:40 to 4:55 if you care to skip.
Hey that saves you from pay per view.
Kym Illman I watched it and I appreciate your content. Sorry to be contrary; support this man.
I have a signed official post from the 1992 Detroit Grand Prix with most of the driver's signatures on it. all the big ones like Emerson, Andretti, Rahal, Unser, Tracy, Hill, and Gordon. All in, I have probably 16 of the drivers and Mario signed it too! I worked the pits for SCAA for the race so I got to meet most of the drivers. It's been framed since 1992 and still in perfect condition. Wonder what it is worth?
Really good tips, there's definitely a lot of social engineering involved and luck to meet and get signatures from your favorite drivers and personalities :)
To commemorate his maiden victory, I recently purchased a signed Checo mini helmet and also ordered a custom glass case with engraved plaque. It's amazing!
You’re a serious fan.
@@KymIllman thanks mate. Great content /photos!
Back in the 1970s and 80s. It was so easy to get drivers autographs. First drivers autographs I got was the ever kind New zealander Denis Hulme. Who went about talking to nervous 12 yr old me feel very much relaxed. He was such a lovely man. Funny as hell. Sir Jackie I waited for at the same Rafe but he was extremely busy. I'd asked him earlier if when he wasnt busy could he sign this poster I had. He said yeah I'll be back in a bit I promise. I'm like okey cool I'll hang around watching other drivers around. Got a very sweet Emmerson Fittapadlis autograph. And a rushed off his feet Colin Chapman's signature. Another really patient guy.
Anyway started talking with some other fans. And I get this tug on my shoulder. I turned around it was Sir Jackie. He says you still want me to sign your poster. I was over the moon. He's such a kind guy.
Over the years I got a number of autographa from various drivers.
I thnk it's best to try to guage how they're being around other people. Don't tell don't scream. Be polite. One thing autographed at a time. Àlways say thankyou.
Dont keep bothering people. .
Easy.
Chriss from London UK
Great video! I was lucky enough to get Sebastian Vettel signing two pictures for my brother (not ip but TTM) They came back yesterday from Switzerland. He even dedicated one and wrote me a short letter 😁
Jackie Stewart gave me his signature on a pic of him and the caption of his quote "Cornering is like bringing a woman to climax."
watching this in order to try to get some autographs down in miami this year!!
Can you please make a video about your experience in 2016 with the Red Bull hospitality pack. I have been thinking about doing it and would really love some information about it.
I will consider that one.
You can actually ask the teams in writing. They will send you the autographs. And with the accompanying paperwork it’s way cooler
Won a package for Red Bull hospitality at Turn 17 of Austin through the virtual Pit Stop Challenge. Here's hoping Checo or Max swing by!
Only F1 driver autograph I know that I own is Fernando Alonso. Got it 2 years ago at the Rolex24 endurance race in Daytona Beach (which I think he went on to win)
Edit: came about 4h early and was the first in line for the autograph. Also there were some other former F1 drivers there (Barrichello, Maldonado, Kobayashi), but I’m not sure anymore who’s autograph I got and who’s I didn’t get)
My dad had picture signed by Jacques Villeneuve at the 1997 Canadian Grand Prix. A couple years later he found out that my grandmother (his mother) had accidentally thrown away the picture while cleaning the house!
Sad
Moms and their cleaning habits, amirite? _But I had everything in a perfectly, orderly fashion!_
What a great insight into the world of f1 you offer! how do you store your pictures on your computer, by race, by driver, date etc?
All pics are Keyworded for easy searching.
If you live in the UK it`s worth sending a nice letter and SAE to the teams based in The UK. (all teams except AT, Ferrari and Sauber). I have done this before and have got autographs and driver cards.
Got Bottas autograph in Monza last year
Thanks for making me wanting an F1 drivers signature even more haha
Last Gilles autograph, 12mins before. Bought from the son of a marshal, who had the presence of mind to have it date stamped by the clerk of the course. Owned for 35 yrs.
Getting Kimi to stop for you is probably gonna be the hardest challenge ever LOL.
i´m lucky to have Fernando Alonso´s signature, and maybe not as valuable as that one, but i also have Daniel Abt´s signature
absolutely love the channel!
great vid i’m a big indycar fan. and i got fernando alonso last year. and i also love that jackie stewart auto. reminds me of johnny rutherfords signature
I got Mika Hakkinen's autograph after Malaysia Grand Prix 1999 in hotel he stayed where I worked.
Thank you for the video and tips!
I got Roger Federer’s autogra..... crap wrong sport
it is a better one than any F1 driver autograph... and... Roger has a ver nice signature
I have Robert lewandoski autograph 😁
Really enjoyed that👍
Great video! Any specific tips for Lewis Hamilton in Melbourne as in what day he arrives or what hotel he stays at?
Only Lewis knows where he’ll be staying and what he’ll be doing
So what could be a good strat for this year's race at Nürburgring? My only opportunity for a long time i guess
Hey Kim the autographs we ask through email to the teams and they post it to you are they hand signed by the drivers??
I would imagine so. I can’t see the teams forging signatures.
Thank you Kym for taking time to reply :)
Hi Harsh!
How do you ask them? Just curious:)
@@descz go to Google search f1 drivers signed autograph cards you will get a Reddit page of f1 teams email addresses . kindly Ask them for an autograph card with Ur address written in it. Done now all you need is patience.
P.s just now I received mercedes autograph cards
next year, fingers crossed.
I'm going to 2021 silverstone quali and I want to get a drivers autograph especially georges but I dont mind who tbh any advise
Do you have an idea where they stay when they are in Montreal? Ritz Carlton? W? Queen Elizabeth. It should be easier to catch them when they’re gettimg out of the hotel no?
Hi Kym! Great video and information! I’m a new F1 fan, burgeoning collector, and going to my first F1 race at COTA and am SUPER excited to try and get some autographs!! Any tips for getting them outside of the paddock area or for the track with autographs in general? From what I’ve seen they have a private parking lot so it seems a little different than some tracks possibly?
COTA is not a good track for meeting drivers
I would love to get Damon Hill's autograph and Jenson Button but I don't know what is the the best option for these.
Love your channel👍🏻🙏🏻
Yessss!
Thank you for the video! Do you know if you could get a Selfie with a driver during the autograph session?
Absolutely yes
@@KymIllman Awesome Thank You!
I was fortunate to get Jackie Stewart although @ 15 years old I was accused of stealing JS trademark black cap. I was taken by an official to Jackie’s trailer to investigate but as JS arrived wearing his own cap it became clear that that I was just a lucky young race fan who’s dad had acquired the cap while in England 🇨🇦 😇 Great day for a motor car race … that was 50 years ago … 🏎
What a story!
I got a signing of lewis back in Hockenheim 2016
