could just imagine Toto and Christian going at it 😂

And their drivers at radios 🤣

Toto would have Christian into the wall

@@Dazinho88 He'll need someone else to send the emails then

Toto would crash the kart, casually turn it off, and walk over to the paramedics before passing out

Hi Steve!

I was wishing it'd been you racing Lando, but then it would've been way closer

Hi Mr. Albon!

steveee love ur vids bro keep up the great work!!

When Barretto's driving, it's certainly a joke

Yep, this is lando's new LN chassis with an OK engine which they are driving at South Garda which is the same track as the infamous Luca Corberi incident, to brake in these karts you really do have to just mash the brakes, you can hear lando doing this because when he brakes hard into the corner the tyres make a squealing sound and try not to panic when the rear end of the kart tries to step out and make you lose control (which it will by the way). These tyres are also extremely grippy but they only last 2 days of driving max so you have to steer extremely smooth and use as little steering input as possible to be fast compared to rental karts which normally have tyres which have done thousands of laps and have to have massive steering inputs put into them to get any kind of response

True. It is hard but also fun at the same time and that’s exactly what makes me racing with Karts every time a got a chance.

it’s not that hard. Yes, it is hard but not that

technique (skill) and fitness. Lawrence evidently lacks both

Thanks for the recognition

I think he will get his beard in around 25 then he will look little bit aged..... just like Martin Garrix or me lol.

@mountaindew420 yes. Even Leclerc sometimes still looked like 14.

@@daveblue3733 hi Dave Blue.

@mountaindew420 2022 F1 season almost kicked off man.

Gillete is his sponsor, so we won't see him soon with beard.

With that category they can do 1.5 secs faster lol

Doesn’t help that the amateur driver looks like he’d take 3 attempts to pass his driving test😂

@@PhilJegier He wouldn't, he would just use public transport.

Hes in f1 what other confirmation do you need,jesus these people are unbelievable

@@cristianmolina6889 who is this comment directed at? What are you referring to? 🤔

Lawrence: Crashes

I would have died if he said “If you can keep me behind… P1”

250cc superkarts, fun idea!

Dang, that needs to happen!

Replying after Monaco 2023. Agree entirely. Even with rain.

Super dangerous in kart definitely not happening

so you want people to die? 😂

🤣🤣🤣

So you crash

Yup i too drive like an untalented version of colin mcrae

Moonlakes elite comment

I think he was also trying to find the limits at the start to get his bearings and more confidence with the kart later on.

he'd have been too knackered to race

Would have been better just sacking him and getting someone that knows even a little about driving

@@Hermanos22 don’t call him an idiot

@@plebiusjonbson823 Not the point....they were comparing an F1 driver to a normal everyday driver. Someone with no racing experience. I guess to show just how quick an F1 driver really is.

The point of this video is to show the difference between someone jumping in for the first time and a professional

Karts are not cars. There's no hard breaking in karting

He's likely never completely off the throttle, you want to keep the revs up in the 2 strokes. They are also solid rear axle, so you are often trail braking to twist the chassis and get the mechanical grip required to corner at those speeds. No diff, so your inside rear works against you if you're not initiating some of your turn in via braking to unload that wheel more than you would in a sprung car with a differential. All the grip in these 125cc 2-strokes is mechanical, so perfecting it makes you faster. The tires make a distinct sound when done right, which you can hear from Lando's kart at the hairpin. The pitch of it varies based on speed. You can see him using the braking into the hairpin and even a slight move off the line to set up this action into the apex, like an extremely gentle and controlled Scandinavian flick, just to start rotating the kart early. He's on the gas when he is because it helps plant the kart into that attitude where it makes the highest amount of grip. That's why the handling seems magical when you see pros doing it. You honestly want to have the kart rotated for apex before you even get to apex whenever you are able to carry speed in.

It's not a single hairpin, it's a sharp apex that opens up substantially. Most of his turning is done very early because of this and he's back on the throttle early

Lewis Hamilton would lead the whole race then get robbed by some dumb rule.

Yeah it would pretty cool. Would rather see that then sprint racing.

It would be cool to see a Monaco race with everyone having a Ariel Adam car lol

@@missourimongoose8858 "Ariel Adam" lol

@@michaelschneider1365 it depends on the category, but im pretty sure the best f1 driver would not even qualify in the final of a big karting event in my category, he would not even make it into the top 40 out of 200 drivers. i say that because it has already been done and the f1 driver was really average in a kart that was not his own kart.

Wholesome? Barretto is an embarrassment, an identity token. Now Norris has zero respect for him.

@@johnsmith1474 LOL My perspective was that the pros are spending time with the production crew. creating new content, a bit like a family. No idea what your on about.

@@johnsmith1474 have seen you in quite a few comment sections spreading hate and stupidity. Cope man.

@@doctoronishispsychosislab1474 Exactly. This is great content

Thats hard

That would be so cool but hard to actually do. I reckon either Max or Charles (most likely Max) would win. He won 23 out of 28 karting championships in the same time frame as Charles who only won about 7 or 9.

@@AndresCamachoTaveras doesn’t matter. It’s whoever has been practicing in karts the most in recent years consistently. Professional kart drivers straight away are much quicker than f1 drivers in karts

@@willbb yea i know and that’s exactly why I’m saying max would win. Lewis wouldn’t be as fast because he has said he hasn’t gone karting In years. Max karts quite a lot still today

lewis would lose horribly so he’d throw a fit and refuse to participate.

i was about to say the same because this comparison is lacking fundamentals from lawrence.

Lando did this with someone from his e-sports team a few months back, from what I know he’s a kart driver and it was much more interesting

@@dianabenitez4420 you got a link?

@@MrOod67 Pasting the link will likely get the comment deleted, so just search for a video called "I Challenged Lando Norris to a 1v1 Kart Race" on Super GT's channel

Watch when Lando raced against the guy who runs the ‘Super GT’ channel. He’s a decent amateur driver and it’s much closer. Even so Lando is still on a different level of course.

This has happened, hasn't it?

Don't forget Hamilton was a champion kart driver, as a youngster. 😉

@@grahamw56 this wasn't meant as offense against Hamilton. Thing is almost all of them were Kart champions once, that's why it would be so interesting. I would think Max or George would probably win but you can't really predict, it would be so exciting

I mean, if you race karts it really wouldn’t be impossible

Of course it's impossible Lando's an F1 driver... ... Lando also has years of Karting experience but "he's an F1 driver" is all that needed to be said.

Nothing is impossible bro. Yes i get it, some have it and some dont, but nothing is impossible.

Not without practice

Just because Lando is an f1 driver doesn’t mean he’s the fastest karter. He doesn’t kart that often, and there are people who do this every single day and are probably faster than him. It’s all about practicing and believing you can do it as well.

To be fair when you're a kid you're really light which is a huge advantage, and we all learned when we were 8 years old so you get pretty used to it, do miss it but I doubt I'd even fit in a kart now.

@@fingmoron I don't think weight alone accounts for 5 seconds Plus I am quite underweight myself, and at the time we went karting I was under 50kg myself

@@Wizzkidwas nah of course but when you start young you'll be much faster than a new adult, weight helps with that.

@@Wizzkidwas i am weighing 80kilos and i'am the fastest on my home indoor track. I'am driving 29,6* Just for fun a few weeks ago I put in an extra 50kg and I got a 30,6* Yes weight does make a difference but not as much as people think. Skill is much more important

@@joey-a.2412 and thats at an indoor track at an outdoor track with long straights like spa karting track its much worse

@@Cryptoni_X very annoying*

Looks like he’s never driven a car before

Now lets put 19 drivers in one of those and Hamilton in F1 car and see who's really the fastest.

@@blue4fr probably still the drivers in the karts since its a small track with lots of tight corners that f1 cars just wouldnt really be that effective at

The results would be surprising...for Hamilton fans anyways.

In the Video the Karts were SUPERfast!

he didn't design it OTK did

True banh

Probably Lawrence isn't that used to drive fast. He travels all around the world all the time, he probably takes a lot of taxis and buses and almost never really drive. I'd say a guy that drives daily in both heavy traffic and fast roads, with an aggressive style to begin with, a ricer car guy or an amateur track day kart racer would be between 7 to 20 seconds slower than Lando. I'd say all the extra is on Lawrence

Gap would most likely be within tenths

Talk about a comment that aged like milk ...

@Everything You Want That was heavily damaged in Austria so it has to be something else!

You should check out a video with Carlos Sainz and Lando Norris going out karting. The rest of the field might as well be mobile chicane.

@@dyingearth Think I’ve seen that one actually. I was told a story at my local kart track that a guy was winning a few races well ahead of the pack and thought he was going somewhere, until he tested the same day as George Russell who drove circles around him.

that's sooo wrong

@@Str8representing no hes right

No need for stress, everybody knows what to expect out of that

And also they started their careers in karting haha, most of them as early as 5 or 6 years old

its really quite easy. just look up 2stroke kart tracks and go

@@lucianomorano3394 There is a big difference between the gokarts we mere mortals get to use and try when we spend big money for an hour at the track, and the karts that pro drivers use like that one :)

@@Jovi_97 ehh. not really. sure they have there's fine tuned and setup right but it doesn't make a huge difference. also they were using OK motors which are super expensive. so you wouldn't go as fast but even an X30 would blow your pants off. Ive raced in both, and OK is better but for you it wouldn't make a difference. you just have to go to the right track (not indoors) and use a 2stroke

given charles , max , lewis , russell , sainz are still on the grid i'd say there's still a bit of doubt

It's also the fact that drivers like Lando have done this since they were like.. 6 years old, so he knows exactly what he's doing when you would wake him up in the middle of the night and put him in a kart

Willingness to fail is a key thing. You can't know where the limits are without having exceeded them often enough to become familiar with where exactly the limit is. I'm terrified of drifting even in a PC racing simulator.

@@justyeetthechicane656 absolutely, probably what allowed them to get the balancing act right

Not sure if I can back up your assessment. However, I do remember Lando watching the recently posted 2021 season reactions and saying something like "I risked my life in that corner" while smiling like if he was remembering a fond memory. These people are willing to risk life and limb for a pass and they do it on the regular and they LIKE it.

They are willing to fail only beacause the mistakes are not that big anymore with great experience & skill, plus they know how to correct them

*immediately gets Sochi flashbacks*
