Raw power? As opposed to what, cooked power? It’s just power, and if you think that looks terrifying then you aren’t really into your cars or power are you? Edit: You do realise as well that the shaking the camera shows isn’t representative of what the driver experiences, right? A camera is very different to a human head with eyes.

@@adamwake1915 Comparatively speaking, Steve was a lot more dialled in once his tyres warmed and was clearly the fastest out there. He wasn’t missing any apexes man. That’s an MP4/1 at Brands Hatch and it was obvious that the car was a handful at that track until he finally got the temperatures up into the operating window. When up to speed, he nailed all of the apexes (bar the final right hander leading onto the start/finish straight) as he preferred the wide line entry to help carry his speed down the stretch. The only times he wasn’t on the optimal racing line was when duelling with other cars and becoming unsighted, or whilst the cars are all entering the same corner together.

But understand, Ayrton Senna never drove this car. The MP4/1 was only in service 1981-83. Senna began his F1 career the next season, and in fact didn't drive a McLaren at all until 1988, when he stepped into the legendary MP4/4.

The McLaren MP4/1 (initially known as the MP4) was a Formula One racing car produced by the McLaren team. It was used during the 1981, 1982 and 1983 seasons. It was the first Formula One car to use a monocoque chassis wholly manufactured from carbon fibre composite, a concept which is now ubiquitous. The chassis was designed by John Barnard, Steve Nichols and Alan Jenkins, with the car being powered by a Cosworth DFY engine. The MP4 was the first car to be built following the merger of the McLaren team and Ron Dennis' Project 4 Formula 2 team; its designation was short for "Marlboro Project 4". From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Interesting though that he was content to be cautious behind the Williams, until the Tyrrell got past the Williams following him - then as soon as the Tyrrell had a nose down the inside at Druids, he carried WAY more speed next through Hawthorns and through Paddock Hill, leading up to the eventual overtake, than on previous laps - there was a notable urgency that lap after being caught by the 012; fascinating to see.

This is a 1982 car. I manually timed laps and it seemed he was lapping around low 1.20s. Pole position by Keke Rosberg here in 1982 was 1.09xx. So more than 10 seconds faster than this guy is going in the video. If this seems fast imagine how much faster it looked when Keke went around the track. The guys in the 80s were absolute madmen... Its a shame onboard cameras were fully reinstated just in the late 80s... They missed arguably the craziest decade of F1. What I would do to have on onboard of one of the pole laps in 80s...

You know, when I see this great video I remember Lauda, Reutemann, Pironi, Peterson, James Hunt, Villenueve that drove in the times of this video and these cars were very difficult to drive and these drivers were able to do it in great way. The principal problem with these cars was the fire in the seventies and Reutemann always tell about this. When we go to the past in the races we can find the cars were very dangerous to run and I remember Jack Stewart (that was a great champ driver in F1) and the cars he drove were more dangerous than the cars we can see in this video or in Fangio s times with cars that were very but very dangerous to drive. Anyway, to drive a race car is very difficult now and before no doubt jaja. Best Regards to you from Argentina!

Today's Formula One, is all about perfection, in terms of its technology, and it excludes the driver from being anything but a automaton in my opinion. These cars here, are the last of a breed of racing car, in which drivers and car had a fifty fifty stake in determining the eventual outcome. This MP4 McLaren is a beast vs the toyish F1 of today. I loved watching these cars at Monte Carlo for real. I literally cried as they went by and sounded so amazing and loud. Beautiful stunning cars, with ridiculous horse power and drivers, whose octane levels were equal to that of the engines. This course, is both fast and curvy with lots of room for passing, but it is also tight in places. Just listen too this MP4. Nothing today comes even remotely close in terms of sound, and beauty. Stunning race car. KB🇬🇧🏁

That’s an MP4/1 at Brands Hatch and it was obvious that the car was a handful at that track until he finally got the temperatures up into the operating window. When up to speed, he nailed all of the apexes (bar the final right hander leading onto the start/finish straight) as he preferred the wide line entry to help carry his speed down the stretch. The only times he wasn’t on the optimal racing line was when duelling with other cars and becoming unsighted, or whilst the cars are all entering the same corner together.

The McLaren MP4/1 (initially known as the MP4) was a Formula One racing car produced by the McLaren team. It was used during the 1981, 1982 and 1983 seasons. It was the first Formula One car to use a monocoque chassis wholly manufactured from carbon fibre composite, a concept which is now ubiquitous. The chassis was designed by John Barnard, Steve Nichols and Alan Jenkins, with the car being powered by a Cosworth DFY engine. The MP4 was the first car to be built following the merger of the McLaren team and Ron Dennis' Project 4 Formula 2 team; its designation was short for "Marlboro Project 4". From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Could have watched a full race from this POV and with the sound porn going on, and just imagine this was from the era they raced in. Amazing.

The halo would be the only thing missing, but considering how people would have to be more careful if no halo was added, the safety would balance out.

Perfect sound from engine, tires, even from wind sound when pulled out gas. Perfect
Driving these cars alone is insane, doing that on a raceway, with dogged competitors, for more than 1 hour, even when raining, several times a racing weekend, several times a year, for several years, is just out of any scale I can imagine.
Absolutely brilliant. We need more of this. Motor racing is the best sport to follow.
I was expecting this to just be the club layout but when I saw them take the GP circuit 😍😍😍
This is a 1982 car. I manually timed laps and it seemed he was lapping around low 1.20s. Pole position by Keke Rosberg here in 1982 was 1.09xx. So more than 10 seconds faster than this guy is going in the video. If this seems fast imagine how much faster it looked when Keke went around the track. The guys in the 80s were absolute madmen... Its a shame onboard cameras were fully reinstated just in the late 80s... They missed arguably the craziest decade of F1. What I would do to have on onboard of one of the pole laps in 80s...

I remember racing a kart on a long track for the first (and only) time 20+ years ago, this is carting x100, absolutely fantastic to watch but something you absolutely need to have proper talent and a decently long time on the track through the range of racing cars. I settle for coming down steep descents on a bicycle for my high speed kicks!

Ahora como argentino no puedo dejar de admirar a Carlos Reutemann que fue un conductor estraordinario y corría en estos tiempos que vemos en este hermoso video y creo que el Williams que se ve acá era piloteado por Alan Jones y creo que esta carrera debe ser del 78 en que Reutemann corría en Ferrari aún. Viendo esto aparecen en mi memoria Nikki Lauda, Andretti, Pironi, Reutemann, Laffite, Peterson, que monstruos por favor! Un gran saludo!

@@colinrunciman5166 Hello. You welcome and no problem about your spanish. I read you are an HGV Driver and you can understand about the feelings on board in a race car. You know, when I see this great video I remember Lauda, Reutemann, Pironi, Peterson, James Hunt, Villenueve that drove in the times of this video and these cars were very difficult to drive and these drivers were able to do it in great way. The principal problem with these cars was the fire in the seventies and Reutemann always tell about this. When we go to the past in the races we can find the cars were very dangerous to run and I remember Jack Stewart (that was a great champ driver in F1) and the cars he drove were more dangerous than the cars we can see in this video or in Fangio s times with cars that were very but very dangerous to drive. Anyway, to drive a race car is very difficult now and before no doubt jaja. Best Regards to you from Argentina!
I think back to the very begginings of auto racing , IF they could only see this now! The evolution of motor sports in such a short time has evolved insanely! Makes me wonder where it’ll be in another century!??
Seeing the cars following in the side mirrors is so awesome.This is an amazing video.
That engine noise is just 👌
Today's Formula One, is all about perfection, in terms of its technology, and it excludes the driver from being anything but a automaton in my opinion. These cars here, are the last of a breed of racing car, in which drivers and car had a fifty fifty stake in determining the eventual outcome. This MP4 McLaren is a beast vs the toyish F1 of today. I loved watching these cars at Monte Carlo for real. I literally cried as they went by and sounded so amazing and loud. Beautiful stunning cars, with ridiculous horse power and drivers, whose octane levels were equal to that of the engines. This course, is both fast and curvy with lots of room for passing, but it is also tight in places. Just listen too this MP4. Nothing today comes even remotely close in terms of sound, and beauty. Stunning race car. KB🇬🇧🏁
I'd just like to salute these brave drivers and show my appreciation for what they do and this amazing demonstration!

The camera shake and distorted sound give a very visceral sense of the physical strain and mental stress that drivers have to contend with. This is the most realistic experience I've yet seen. I wonder if digital simulators (i.e. racing software) will (or has already) incorporated/simulated such perceptual effects in order to heighten the realism of the experience, and the authenticity of the contest.
I got goosebumbs because of the engine

"Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear".. take a look on the left mirror and just imagine to pushing this beast at his limits, on a wet track, trying to overtake your opponent without crushing into him and with a tailgater glued at your exhausts.. and you may have a little idea of what Lauda, De Cesaris and Watson were fighting for during their glory days. This never stop to amaze me, heavy balls of steel. Big kudos to this men and to Hartley too.
