      I think some of you guys need to take some F1 history lessons and also learn that it's not the number of overtakes by which a circuit should be judged.

    Look how much more alive these cars were! This was in an era where the driver could still make a dent on some circuits, under certain circumstances. I wish we would get back to having smaller (lighter) cars with much less grip. The engines were big and the cars light so that made them more "tail" happy and nimble. Current cars look like they are on rails by comparison!

      They don't want it. Motorsport has been dying a slow death ever since the collective decided that doing dangerous things and accepting the consequences wasn't a 'good investment' or in some way socially irresponsible. Those assholes never liked open wheelers racing wheel to wheel at sustained high speeds on incredibly long straights, and many spectators inexplicably found long straights boring. Fools and cowards.

  • @jasonmcmillan4373
    @jasonmcmillan4373 5 років тому +5

    If one day they carve up up Mt Panorama or the Nurburgring, then, only then, will there be a greater travesty in motorsport then what was done to this track. All the finger nail biting from organisers, sponsors, and modern fans is why I hardly watch motorsport any more. If you don't like the risks of sustained high speeds, don't go racing.

    This track was terrible. Straights and chicanes... I dont see the appeal. It might be better than a new tillkedrome but that's not saying much. Still, gotta love seeing the drivers slide around with none of the downforce they're used to.

    • @ssssssss6889
      @ssssssss6889 4 роки тому +1

      The appeal is two things:
      1- Straight + chicane combination may look boring at the first sight but getting through the chicanes right were very critical for a good lap time. Check out and compare drivers between each others based on how they drive through these chicanes. Then, it will make sense.
      2. That was a atypical circuit that, most of the time, produced marginal races and results. This was true , not just for top running cars, but also for the midfield.
      Now , today there is no diversity in circuits and no diversity in cars specs. So, we get almost the same exact finish order race after race. That's boring!

      Amen it’s about track diversity … even super boring Monaco because it’s so much slower and different to even slow tracks like Dutch and Hungarian gp has survived this long which it wouldn’t have even with its
      Prestige ……with Hockenheim the cool thing was it was the nearest f1 got to a supper speedway except it was fat was divided by 3 chicanes and had a grid straight and a stadium section bolted on … and if it rained it was like watching a wet oval racing- the banking 👌👌

    • @discodavid26
      @discodavid26 2 роки тому

      And I forgot to mention what I miss most about 90s era cars …… you can guess which off the 16-18 championship track the car is racing at in maximum 3 try’s just by looking at photos off the car’s ( with track blacked out) front and rear wings …… no track had the cars running such small rear wings as Hockenheim with only monza looking anywhere close 👌

    • @discodavid26
      @discodavid26 2 роки тому

      One off the few things I hate about modern f1 is tracks differences how got so narrow …… say what you like about indycar but they race on four distinct types off tracks 👍
