@Damar Fadlan im interested to see which new rules they will apply after the whole chaos with the championship race. I heard they are reforming quite a lot of rules, and the new car will also be interesting of course!
As someone who didn’t grow up watching Senna and Prost for example fighting for the championship I have to say that this was by far the best season I’ve ever seen and I’m so glad that we have those two guys in the sport giving it all they’ve got. Amazing!!
@@Tegneaufreak The FIA back then had a name: Jean Marie Balestre. If Senna wasn't disqualified for taking the wrong way for rejoining the track in '89, he would've been dq'ed for an illegal push-start. In any way, a frenchman made sure a frenchman won that season. Sometimes, that's F1 too.
In 30-40 years, I think the fans not around now will look back on this era in the same way we who weren't around for Senna/Prost look back at that era.
@@sgthulk9 except that's not the case, even if you give Senna the win in Suzuka, he would still need to win in Adelaide which he of course didn't because he crashed out. So prost deserved that championship
And it wouldn't have happened if Lewis hadn't pitted that early. He had a lot of great laps left in those mediums, would've taken a second per lap on Max with his hards. And he only needed 10 seconds more to have a free pit on Checo... First mistake by Mercedes team that sunday
@@hubabava Hamilton was more than just unlucky, he was the victim of a wrongheaded decision which put the show above the sport.

I'm not I just got to witness how rules can just be manipulated in the name of excitement in this sport. Sure every sport is unfair in some way but at least they a more strict and consistent rulebook. Doubt i'll recommend to anyone.
@@fernandb.6162 It is, Max said it. I have a friend that's in a private discord server with him. I also thought it was Albon, but turns out it isn't lol
The resilience by Max to fight back even when the last few races weren’t going his way is incredible. Not to mention the fight Lewis put on to win multiple races in a row to get back in the championship. What a season. Can’t wait for next year.
Max will another and it will feel alot better than this championship. No natter what it's tarnished. Great season. Michael masi won it. 2 great racers go again next year. Must be frustrating for both of them
@@crazypats1227 If you think this season was tarnished you haven't been watching F1 for long. Maybe ping pong is a more perfect sport? Honestly there are calls made every year in F1 that drivers and teams object to but the race goes on. One driver can get a tire puncture and be out while another from behind wins the race. That's not a tarnished win. That's a win. Max may win another championship but he has not indicated he feels the least bit bad about this one. Seems pretty happy to me. There are rules of course and that all comes into play. We hope for perfect calls but it doesn't always happen.
Impressed that F1 managed to narrow it down into 10 considering how dramatic this whole season has been. Might as well throw the whole season in 😂😂. Thank u F1 2021 this will be a season we’ll never forget and probably talk about for 20 years
Max is the most aggressive driver I’ve ever seen. He doesn’t yield anything ever. I truly believe that some of his crashes were simply to tell the other drivers that if they want to stay in the race they better yield cause he’s not going to.
Side Note: Max finished P1 or P2 all his races except when he was taken out in Silverstone, his tyre blew up in Baku and got hit by Bottas in Hungary. He deserves the title no matter what people say.
I’m a lewis fan and I’ve been busy through out the season so I don’t remember half of it but watching this shows how close max came so so many times but then just something happens. What a great season though
A lot of people have also forgot about the immediate red flag that came from that incident, VERY conveniently for Lewis Hamilton who had just went off the track into the gravel only seconds before and had dropped to 9th and counting until the red flag.
He tries to influence ("manipulate" lol) stewards. Experience with the system and giving it his best to win on all fronts. That's ok, now just has to lose with a little more grace as well if that's the persona he wants to create for his legacy. If he would spend a little less time with the politics of it all and his future I think he might be happier though, but who knows.
No matter what side you're on, that ENTIRE SEASON has to be one of the best moments in sporting history. Like in all of human history and sporting history. I'm so glad I got to watch it.
Im not even gonna lie, I was cheering for Max during the entire season, mainly due to the fact that I was a bit bored with the absolute Mercedes dominance we have been seeing for the last few years, but seeing Lewis after that last lap, so close to history, and still accepting defeat in such a graceful way, publicly congratulating Max, his father, and Redbull, really makes me appreciate Lewis's growth as a person over the years. Wish him all of the best. Hopefully next season will give us some thrillers like the banger that was the 2021 season.
@@koko400gt Ah, so edgy. Surely Hamilton can take a little time off after a long season. Even more so when losing the title in such a controversial way. Respect a great driver instead of dickriding or jumping on the bandwagon just because you think it's cool. Sincerely, A dutch guy who is obviously a Max fan.
People say anything on the internet, don't worry. If correct rules were used, Lewis would be champion. Still I am happy for Max, because I love controversy!
paling seneng dari setiap klip itu, ketua tim dan tim nya si max verstappen keliatan peduli banget dan support banget ke dia. setiap ada kendala dan kejadian ga sesuai pasti "are okay max ?" yang di tanyain kondisinya dulu. positif banget vibenya
@@syyeung That's why he sent a personal request to Masi to let the cars by on the last lap in Abu Dhabi. Didn't want to take a championship that was rightfully Max's.
@@syyeung He still gained that race though. With Max out the point gap didn't change instead of the gap increasing by 10 or 11 points if Max didn't get the puncture.
2021 was one of the best seasons in Formula 1. With many truly incredible races and epic battles between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton, from the first race in Bahrain to the World Champion Decider on the final round showdown in Abu Dhabi making this 2021 Formula 1 World Championship was a very historical season and will always remembered by all of us.
one of the most idiotic responses ever in any kind of motorsport racing... A nice way to lose your job and be hated by millions right there. Lewis's fans hate him because he robbed the win, Max's fans hate him because max will forever be remembered as being gifted the championship...
Toto wolf should be summoned and warned for interfering in safety matters . He is like giving commands to his dog while talking to FIA officials . He should know he is the boss of Mercedes team and not that of formula 1 . Horner requesting for racing to continue is also equally condemnable . But Toto crossed all the limits . The guys is a real cry baby
@@megarafjogos Seeing this top 10 edit , It's evident that Lewis Hamilton was protected by Masi & FIA throughout the season . From cutting corners in Bahrain to causing devastating crashes in Silverstone . his teammate took out Verstappen at Hungary . He got lucky with the Red flags . He just got a tiny punishment for running illegal car in Brazil . Even in the final race at Abudhabi he gained an unfair advantage at lap 1 which went unpunished . Benefiting all these throughout the year , Masi and FIA became redbull agents after the safety car . What a Mess 🤣
@Mikel It’s impossible to be certain how things would have played out in the run-up to the late safety car, and Hamilton could well have got back ahead and built a similar advantage to the one he had in the race that did happen, but what is certain is that the situation would have been different. It could very well have ensured Hamilton was able to close out the victory. I am not a lewis fan and i just see things unemonatiolly. Sure thing is taht FIA wanted max to win and they did the manupulation very cleverly.
@@huseyinerdem5376 It would have meant that Hamilton would have gone for the free pit instead of keeping pole position, so yes Perez's defense was incredibly key
What gives me goosebumps about the Monza Max-Lewis crash is that it’s like they were fated to collide. They came together only because they both had unusually long pit stops: Max’s was 11 seconds long (I don’t think he was serving a penalty or had damage, so a rare mistake from RB pit crew), and Lewis’ was 4 seconds long, nearly twice the average pit stop.
That "mistake" from Red Bull pit crew was because the light for the release didn't go out. And that was also because of rule changes that a pit stop was not allowed to go faster than 2 seconds. And that rule change was implemented because Mercedes was complaining that such a thing was "unsafe". It was purely aimed at Red Bull because Mercedes were whiney because Red Bull had the fastest pit stops and Mercedes didn't.
@@orphid you've exaggerated so much here mate, it's hilarious. This is coming from a McLaren fan not even a Mercedes one - the FIA decided to disallow a special component all pit crew members use in their tire guns. That missing component means the job that component completed now has to be done manually, which is why every single team on the grid is WAY slower at pitstops (especially McLaren). If anything, Red Bull have adapted best and are performing almost as well as before (2-2.2 vs the 1.9 last year). Ferrari have also greatly improved but basically every other car on track stayed the same or got slower. I hope theu bring back that component, I loved seeing the fast pit stops man!
@@tanyaghosh1311 they had 9/10 best pitstops this year which is still very impressive but compared to last year when it was 1.8-1.9s pitstops and the rest were having 2.0-2.2s its a big change. Mercedes and Red Bull are very close in pitstops now.
Max’s tire blowout was so unfortunate, and then for Hamilton to hit his magic button… we really were destined for the championship lap, given all the crazy stuff that happened
Never realized how much Verstappen managed to control his last turn acceleration oversteer with perfection at 13:12 Can you IMAGINE if he spun and gave out the championship at the LAST corner? Incredible focus with such stakes
I love how the top 4 most dramatic moments are all ones involving Max and Lewis 4. Max and Lewis coming together at Saudi Arabia 3. Max and Lewis coming together at Italy 2. Max and Lewis coming together at Silverstone 1. The championship decider between Max and Lewis
Dont forget Lewis horrible braking habits where he gave up positions,...Namely at Azerbaijan where he failed the first corner as if he had no idea how to turn or slow down correctly, and when he left his self wide open for Max to move in during the last race and braked way too early allowing max to take the apex correctly and cut him off
@@Shadow0fd3ath24 Jesus Christ dude you’re wrong on absolutely everything you commented on Did you even watch the season? 🤔 judging by your comment clearly not
Honorable mentions.. 1. Lewis winning in Sao Paolo from 25 place grid penalty 2. Bahrain Turn 4 overtake of Max on Lewis and then giving place back 3. Turn one of Imola between Max and Lewis 4. Lando pushing Perez off-track and Perez himself doing the same twice to Charles at Austria 5. P2 of George in Belgium qualification 6. Very successful Two stop and undercut strategy for Red Bull in France. 7. Lewis losing 4 places during Pit stop period and Bottas's wheel nut issue at Monaco. 8. Tire failures in Qatar may be missed many more... what a season
Alonso v lewis, helping Ocon win... All of lap 1 in Mexico Daniel taking out bottas, Lewis reversing on gravel in Italy n then going to win p2.. lol.theres so many
I love the fact that Max and Lewis always remained respectful towards one another, whilst their teambosses went at each others and Masi's throats like rabid dogs.
I remember it like yesterday, My heart rate was through the roof... Without any physical activity, simply by watching a screen😛, never experienced such a thing.
To all the people who say Lewis was robbed in Abu Dhabi. Just look at this video, how often Max got robbed. So all in all: Max maybe didn't deserve to win in Abu Dhabi but he Cleary deserved to be world champion this year!
@@me-xe9sg he had a small chance in both those years especially with multiple contenders. Although i miss the lewis from McLaren. Mercedes is a annoying team and have a huge ego. Next year they need to be put in their place of pre-2014.
3:37 if I remember right, max is very lucky his car went to the right here because if it went left he would’ve been looking at a very fast side collision with the start of the pit wall
Unlike in silverstone when he pushed max into the barriers and lie in hungary where bottas "accidently" pushed max wide. Lewis is nothing more than 6 times formula mercedes champion, and one time formula 1 champion, for one point. With his car Vettel, Alonso, Leclerc,Max,... would all be 7 times champions. And don't you dare to compare him with the all time greats.
That Toto call to Michael; I always think Toto is gonna say something like: “no Michael! This is not what we talked about! This is not how you said we were gonna do it!”
@@Gigantopithecus69 There are so many variables to the championship though, with Lewis having a great bit of luck to even make it a close fight. Bottas punting Max at that race start which majorly damaged his car so he only got to around 8th losing massive points, Hamilton being allowed to unlap himself because of the red flag from Russell and Bottas which was a major point swing, and of course Verstappen's tire exploding. Not even factoring in Silverstone it was only a close fight in the end because of a fair amount of luck.
I mean it was very clearly his fault and you can place pretty much all the blame on him for that incident. That doesn’t mean hating him as a driver and person though. Criticising a driver for a poor performance isn’t the same as hating them.
Lol , thats wt am saying and i really like Valteri but am talking about this one incident where he is clearly at fault and that one mistake destroyed the race
despite F1 needing some change (especially rules wise on track, and consistency with penalties), it was a great season. This is a season u get once every 5-8 years.
@@barrymantz6026 Yeah once in a lifetime. No season compares to this for me. I'm 38, been into racing since I was a kid, and I don't think any season comes even close in my lifetime.
Silverstone: hamilton robbed max Hungary: bottas robbed max Baku: pirelli robbed max Monza: max and hamilton robbed eachother Abu dhabi: justice for everything before
9:10 if you pause here you can see that the halo literally saved lewis' life, if there was no halo he would have had the whole weight of the car on his head
Despite the poor handling of the end of the race by the stewards, I can't help but smile wide listening to Albon and Verstappen yelling at each other in excitement when the race was over. All of the emotion Verstappen held in throughout the year surfaced after the checkered flag fell 😊
@@anth00000 Hungary wasn’t the only race this season! Championships are won over the course the entire season, Bottas had his fair share of bad luck as well! So I wouldn’t say Hungary alone was the defining factor
Funny that all Lewis fans felt Max won by cheating but forgot Lewis would have won the championship only and only thanks to the Bottas bowling, he wouldn't even be fighting to the last race without Hungary
Max only had bad luck all year, even Baku with both out was bad for him because he should have opened 11 points bud didn't got anything... And when Lewis made the mistake leaving the track and getting one lap behind, Bottas just crashed and he got back to the race for free.
@2:45 bottas didnt just take out norris He took out norris, who flew into max, then bottas flew into perez, thats P2-P5 taken out of a podium or even race completion. THEN, because of the chaos, stroll drives into ricciardo and even leclerc gets damaged and everyone else drives over that debris. One of very few races lewis didnt get the win from driving the fastest car, this win was given by bottas taking out or damaging nearly 10 cars.
Lewis disadvantage this year was that he didn’t know how to deal with an aggressive driver like Max. Years of limited competition made him rely on his car speed which suited his non-aggressive driving style. Lewis never expected Max to overtake in turn 5 in the final lap of the last race. Max is an opportunist so he went for it straight away. Added to that, for years Lewis has had a teammate (Bottas) who is one of the least aggressive of all time. At least this is how I see it.
He left space on the last lap as he knew he would go past with the faster tyres, his only chance was to overtake him on the straight using the slip stream and superior mercedes straight line speed
Well, his time with Nico was something else, that was some fierce fighting after fierce fighting, so i think he knew how to behave in a championship battle, but certainly never had the experience with someone agressive as Max
@@zikalokof1challenge414 Hi, I remember his fight with Nico very well, and Lewis also lost that battle. And Nico wasn’t even that aggressive. You are right that Max is aggressive, but only in the slower corners where he can outbrake opponents. Cheers
Hamilton's only chance in Abu Dhabi was to retain track position and defend hard. As soon as he left the door wide open going into turn 5, it was over.
man, looking back, this season was absolutely brilliant, from start to finish. the amount of luck and bad luck combined and it all ended perfectly with both of them on equal points for an amazing finale.
Unforgettable season. Roll on 2022.
@Damar Fadlan im interested to see which new rules they will apply after the whole chaos with the championship race. I heard they are reforming quite a lot of rules, and the new car will also be interesting of course!
Add George Russell to the mix for 2022. If you thought two was company then three will be a crowd.
If bottas just helped Lewis in the last 3 races it would have been different. Glad he’s gone, useless in the last race.

Honestly there are calls made every year in F1 that drivers and teams object to but the race goes on. One driver can get a tire puncture and be out while another from behind wins the race. That's not a tarnished win. That's a win. Max may win another championship but he has not indicated he feels the least bit bad about this one. Seems pretty happy to me.

Max is the most aggressive driver I’ve ever seen. He doesn’t yield anything ever. I truly believe that some of his crashes were simply to tell the other drivers that if they want to stay in the race they better yield cause he’s not going to.

He is not very aggressive, he is the best driver in f1 history

@@huseyinerdem5376 It's called pit window, and it was crucial to keep Max on the fight.
@Mikel It’s impossible to be certain how things would have played out in the run-up to the late safety car, and Hamilton could well have got back ahead and built a similar advantage to the one he had in the race that did happen, but what is certain is that the situation would have been different. It could very well have ensured Hamilton was able to close out the victory. I am not a lewis fan and i just see things unemonatiolly. Sure thing is taht FIA wanted max to win and they did the manupulation very cleverly.
@@huseyinerdem5376 It would have meant that Hamilton would have gone for the free pit instead of keeping pole position, so yes Perez's defense was incredibly key
What gives me goosebumps about the Monza Max-Lewis crash is that it’s like they were fated to collide. They came together only because they both had unusually long pit stops: Max’s was 11 seconds long (I don’t think he was serving a penalty or had damage, so a rare mistake from RB pit crew), and Lewis’ was 4 seconds long, nearly twice the average pit stop.
That "mistake" from Red Bull pit crew was because the light for the release didn't go out. And that was also because of rule changes that a pit stop was not allowed to go faster than 2 seconds. And that rule change was implemented because Mercedes was complaining that such a thing was "unsafe". It was purely aimed at Red Bull because Mercedes were whiney because Red Bull had the fastest pit stops and Mercedes didn't.
@@orphid Well it was unsafe. It doesn't happen often but it does happen that wheels are not put on safely.
thats what you get if you change pitstop rules.....karma
@@orphid you've exaggerated so much here mate, it's hilarious. This is coming from a McLaren fan not even a Mercedes one - the FIA decided to disallow a special component all pit crew members use in their tire guns. That missing component means the job that component completed now has to be done manually, which is why every single team on the grid is WAY slower at pitstops (especially McLaren). If anything, Red Bull have adapted best and are performing almost as well as before (2-2.2 vs the 1.9 last year). Ferrari have also greatly improved but basically every other car on track stayed the same or got slower. I hope theu bring back that component, I loved seeing the fast pit stops man!
@@tanyaghosh1311 they had 9/10 best pitstops this year which is still very impressive but compared to last year when it was 1.8-1.9s pitstops and the rest were having 2.0-2.2s its a big change. Mercedes and Red Bull are very close in pitstops now.
Max’s tire blowout was so unfortunate, and then for Hamilton to hit his magic button… we really were destined for the championship lap, given all the crazy stuff that happened

The more I watch this top, the more I rejoice on Max's championship. Totally deserved, for both max and hamilton.
I also love that Alonso said “He (Max) should be two cars in front of me.” when the lapped cars were told not to overtake
Max only had bad luck all year, even Baku with both out was bad for him because he should have opened 11 points bud didn't got anything... And when Lewis made the mistake leaving the track and getting one lap behind, Bottas just crashed and he got back to the race for free.
@2:45 bottas didnt just take out norris
He took out norris, who flew into max, then bottas flew into perez, thats P2-P5 taken out of a podium or even race completion.
THEN, because of the chaos, stroll drives into ricciardo and even leclerc gets damaged and everyone else drives over that debris.
One of very few races lewis didnt get the win from driving the fastest car, this win was given by bottas taking out or damaging nearly 10 cars.
This season was just mental! One in a million.

Lewis disadvantage this year was that he didn’t know how to deal with an aggressive driver like Max. Years of limited competition made him rely on his car speed which suited his non-aggressive driving style. Lewis never expected Max to overtake in turn 5 in the final lap of the last race. Max is an opportunist so he went for it straight away. Added to that, for years Lewis has had a teammate (Bottas) who is one of the least aggressive of all time. At least this is how I see it.
what? look at silverstone
He left space on the last lap as he knew he would go past with the faster tyres, his only chance was to overtake him on the straight using the slip stream and superior mercedes straight line speed
Well, his time with Nico was something else, that was some fierce fighting after fierce fighting, so i think he knew how to behave in a championship battle, but certainly never had the experience with someone agressive as Max
@@zikalokof1challenge414 Hi, I remember his fight with Nico very well, and Lewis also lost that battle. And Nico wasn’t even that aggressive. You are right that Max is aggressive, but only in the slower corners where he can outbrake opponents. Cheers
Hamilton's only chance in Abu Dhabi was to retain track position and defend hard.
As soon as he left the door wide open going into turn 5, it was over.
9:23 the fact that this moment is number 2 makes me think how amazing this season was
man, looking back, this season was absolutely brilliant, from start to finish.
the amount of luck and bad luck combined and it all ended perfectly with both of them on equal points for an amazing finale.
