The fact that the same team pretty much won every race in the 2014 season does not mean that there was no action to be had throughout. 2014 was action packed and the battle for the title went down to the final race. Relive all the best F1 action of the 2014 season in this awesome 2014 season review video montage which is aptly named, ‘ART OF F1 2014 – Season Review’. It’s packed with all the top highlights of the 2014 Formula One season and is brilliantly edited. Enjoy!
Super awesome classic F1 onboard footage of Juan Manuel Fangio driving the legendary 250F Maserati in Modena, Italy in 1950. Formula One has evolved so much over the years that this footage of Fangio taking the 250F Maserati through its paces is just an incredible thing to watch. You’re likely to watch this Classic F1 video a few times!
Good old pure Formula One racing action in Phoenix at the 1990 US Grand Prix between two legendary drivers, Jean Alesi and Ayrton Senna. Commentary in some very enjoyable Japanese :)Enjoy!
After Red Bull’s announcement that Sebastian Vettel will be leaving the team at the end of the season, and Alonso’s imminent departure from Ferrari, the rumour mills are in full swing again. And the drivers seem to love this silly season business as much as we all do. Felipe Massa had a bit of fun with Alonso during a post-qualifying interview ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka. Massa gatecrashed Alonso’s interview asking, “Are you going to Marussia? Huh? Huh? Caterham?”. Alonso laughed it off but quickly responded to Massa saying, “Come to Ferrari”. Haha. It’s good to see that the drivers can still be light hearted about it all.
This is one of the coolest F1 videos you’re going to see in a very long time.
We all know how cool doing donuts in an F1 car is. We also all love the thermal cameras we get to see glimpses of during a Formula One race weekend. Combine the two together and it’s just sheer thermal donut magic!
Infiniti Red Bull Racing teamed up with thermal imaging company FLIR to gather some info on how the RB10 F1 car’s various parts and components heat up and cool off so that the team could work on better managing temperatures and improve reliability.
Clearly Red Bull realised how insanely cool their cars look in infrared so they sent the RB8, the team’s 2012 car, to the Gamma Racing Day in the Netherlands earlier this month to show off a few thermal donuts. The results are so much of cool. Bits of molten tyre flying around feel almost volcanic. This is by far the best thermal F1 video we’ve ever seen!
The Stig headed for Durban earlier this year to find many temptations at the Top Gear Festival.
None could be as tempting as a 300ft bungee plunge in a Lotus F1 car! Watch as the Stig makes the jump at the Moses Mabida Stadium. Can you imagine the adrenaline?! We’ve always known the Stig has to be crazy, but this is totally INSANE!
Earlier this year, Lewis Hamilton visited the Top Gear Festival in Barbados. Watch this awesome video as he goes head-to-head with Ken Block! Formula One vs. Rallycross!
DC Shoes co-founder, Ken Block, is a professional rally driver who is well known for his amazing rally driving skills which he has used to create the incredible viral YouTube video series known as Gymkhana.
Ken Block essentially helped put rallycross racing on the map in America by competing in events at the X Games (his current X Games medal count is two silver and three bronze), as well as putting together highly successful campaigns in the Rally America Championship.
In this video, Ken Block and Lewis Hamilton go head to head – awesome to see!
Nico Rosberg tells Sky Sports F1’s Natalie Pinkham that the Mercedes team will have to “discuss internally” whether Lewis Hamilton should have let him pass in 2014 Hungarian Grand Prix. He is visibly unimpressed and annoyed. Rosberg was heard over team radio asking why Lewis was not letting him pass, and Hamilton was given a direct team order to allow Rosberg to pass him as they were on different strategies for the race. Hamilton however refused and has said that he made the right decision for him. No doubt there’ll be a team orders row brewing over at Mercedes.
F1 2014 : Hungarian Grand Prix – Nico Rosberg Post Race Interview
Brazilian Formula One driver, Felipe Massa, crashed and rolled in spectacular fashion just seconds after the start of the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim on Sunday.
Massa’s German GP lasted only a matter of seconds after he was clipped and rolled by Kevin Magnussen at the first corner on the first lap of the race.
F1 Rookie Magnussen had taken the inside line into the corner in an attempt to pass Massa, only to find the Brazilian attempting to sweep through the corner ahead of him. This did not work out for either driver and ended with Massa’s Williams in the gravel and out of the race.
Thankfully, Massa walked away from the incident unharmed but another DNF to his name despite the much-improved performace of his Williams car, will not have him feeling anything but bitterly disaapointed. .
The stewards investigated the incident but ruled that it was a racing incident and no further action was taken against Massa or Magnussen.
