Lov this comment!
After this, I remember when Crofty, tongue in cheek, described himself as the "Second best Formula 1 driver from Stevenage."
When our lord and savior crashdonado says it’s going to be alright, you know you’re safe.
Crofty's out and away he goes!
They didn't even show him driving the car for more than 2 seconds......
:25- “working in formula one doesn’t make you a formula one driver”... immediately cuts to Maldonado. Cheeky little editors, well played! Hahahaha

"it's lights out and away I go!"
i see crofty, scott mansell, and maldonado. what a crossover in the first few seconds
Why did the cut the whole lap of him driving out?!?!? That was the whole point of this video
4:02 I just realised that it was Scott Mansell from Driver61 like 2 seconds before his name come up on the screen
There was only like 5 seconds of onboard footage of the F1 car 😕
Scott Mansell : "It was David, wasn't it?" Burn.
It’s always weird seeing Crofty talk in person because 90% he’s a disembodied voice in our ear.
It truly is the greatest driving experience on Earth. On Tuesday I drove a 2011 Williams FW33 for 4 laps around Magny-Cours. I was worried it would take the edge off the magic. It had the opposite effect! Greatest machines on Earth! How any human can drive one flat out is beyond me. How they do it with 19 others around them is incomprehensible!
Blimey, you can speak without screaming like a banshee at us!
Bro would be narrating his own race through the radio. “It’s lights out and away we go and as I go into turn one” or something like that 😂
Drives as good as hes commentating

‘Pastor Maldonado - Lotus F1 Driver’ Those were the days
Miss Lotus in F1. Crofty is amazing!
I would be so nervous. great stuff!
5 seconds of him driving it?
Great to see Driver61
His sound are louder than v6 turbo engine 😂
never actually seen this, he's a lucky man to get to drive that !
First time you get in the car you think you are Nigel Mansell. Brilliant!

Jack Ryeng Another clue is you see Maldonado for a split second. He’s probably not coming back to F1 anytime soon now that he’s full time in WEC.
Hearing Crofty talk about himself in his same commentator voice is super wierd
Bruh they didn’t even show him driving
Wasn't crofty a driver back in the day ?
i still cant understand why they put the red advertising on the lotus, the livery would've been so awesome without

A year ago, when I watched Mr JWW drive the Renault, he was amazing and I was so excited about following him on KZread to see more adventures. At the 4:00 minute mark, I paused the video, started typing this comment, and pondered if I can ever watch another F1 race on ESPN with this incompetent bone head.
1:33 "David, isn't it?" Oooh what a burn hahaha. Brought down to earth pretty quick, when the bloke doesn't even know who you are lol. I mean Croft is not a huge celebrity as huge celebrities go, but in the motorsport world he is a known face. Apparently not to this mechanic guy. Why did he think a camera team was following Croft around. haha
who the heck is Crofty?
