"Gentlemen, a short view back to the past..."

1985 - 1992 is my favourite period in formula one, the teams, cars and driver's of that 7 year period created an atmosphere that gives me tingles to look back on.

This is 100% what I was looking for. I've typically preferred cars that look like they could also be road-going. But I have started to really get into F1 lately, and I wanted to learn about the history via a long documentary-style vid. Most videos I found were pretty good, but only reached 20-30 minutes. Thanks, man. More than three hours is no joke. I really appreciate the effort.

@F1REVERSE

Thanks a lot. Yeh I lost count of hours after the 40 mark I think. It takes time but I'm glad it has paid off!

the '94 Season was very special and what's missing from the video is that the Benneton of Schumacher was down on power from all other cars, it had a V8 engine compared to the V10 in Hill's Williams and Ferrari's V12, what Schumacher did that year was truly outstanding in an era where there was no engine dominance over all rivals on the grid.

I've been watching F1 for more than 40 years: Congratulations on this massive work! Required viewing for Liberty Media / Drive to Survive newcomer fans, no doubt. #bringbackV10s

Congratulations on an epic 3hrs video on a subject we all love! Merry Christmas and onwards to the next era in F1

I still love that famous quote from Martin Brundle "That didn't work Michael, you hit the wrong part of him, my friend." He knew immediately it was on purpose. Amazing video and a great comprehensive history of F1, thanks so much!

Hope you keep enjoying F1. I have for 32 years now, and it's nice that others are getting interested now. The respectable ones are more than welcome to come along.

The car shown at 14:53 is clearly an Indycar. It appears to be Mauri Rose's Blue Crown Special of 1949 -- a front-wheel drive, 4 cylinder offenhauser.

Got to that stage where i won't watch videos unless there atleast 20 mins long. This is perfect an I recommend you post more even before I've watched this all

A tour de force of F1 history. Thank you for your cyclopedic knowledge of the sport. Back in 1968 I remember getting my motorcycle helmet signed by Emerson Fittipaldi when going to Kyalami on a Wednesday afternoon after school. We rode right into the pits and all the drivers were having tea. (You can’t do that today!) I asked Emerson for his autograph and he grabbed my helmet and signed it. All the other drivers ragged him by shouting “Emerson!” together. One thing I did not know was that Gunston was the first cigarette company to sponsor F1. The brand was famous in SA with all their sponsored cars painted in “Gunston Orange”. The racing Ford Capri Piranha was iconic at the time. Thanks once again!

In my opinion the 90s to early 2000s were the pinnacle of F1.

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@carnell7042f1 was just as financially motivated in the past as it is now. If anything, it might even be less so now. People look back on the past with rose tinted glasses, forgetting how many issues there were… if you weren’t in the top 4-6, it was basically a race of attrition. The racing was good when it was actually possible, but I’d argue there are just as many good races in the current era.

Feels unreal to be able to watch this for free. Absolute banger of a video.

I've been a long time subscriber to this channel and I really do appreciate the 3-hour work that you have put into it and I love all your videos. Just can't wait for the 2024 season

This is an incredible summary of F1 history. Really, really well done! thank you for making and posting this. As a tip to get more people to see this, you could divide it in to separate video's for each 'era'. Not everyone goes and watch a 3 hour long (amazing) documentary about F1 history. By making it more like episodes maybe more people would want to watch this. I think this is almost mandatory for all F1 fans. Again, really wel done, and thank you.

Well done guys, loved the video, the hard work you guys put in really shows. Thanks for making this for us🤙

Very impressive video, thank you for taking the time and effort to make this.

Phenomenal video, one of the best and most informative I've ever seen on youtube. Thank you.

Now this is awesome! This is the content at least I want to see from you guys, great job!

Incredible, the effort it took you to do all this deserves more than a sub and a like but it's the least one can do, thank you for such an amazing and complete video.

Damn dude. Appreciate the time and work that went into this. Really was amazingly put together.

WOW, that was epic. I hope the newer fans watch this in full just to understand why us older fans tend to respect all the drivers on the grid. Even though there's some that hang on to favourite drivers or teams, they're all brilliant. Thanks for this amazing video. This is getting saved to my favourites.

This video was absolutely amazing. Learned so much and got to revisit the glory years of the 90s by watching it. Well done.

Thank you for sharing this video for free. Keep up the good quality work!

Great video. Should be "required reading", so to speak, for new F1 fans. It's also a very sobering look at the sport for sure, when you look at the darker moments. In terms of most embarrassing moment, I would submit that the last race of 2021 was much higher on the scale than the Indy debacle. At least there, rules were followed, though it lead to a weird situation. In most prior controversies, it was teams doing something shady and against the rules. In Abu Dabi, it was the actual officials doing it!
