“Sainz is going to need to get a victory soon” Sainz at the British GP 5 days later: “Hold my beer”

One of my favourites is one of Seb's: Shortest time elapsed before earning a penalty, which was 9 seconds for speeding in the pit lane.

Matt: "It's time for these drivers to show off their records!" The drivers in question: "please don't..."

it was giancarlo fischicella who replaced badoer in 2009 and he didn’t do much better. massa retuned in 2010

another unwanted record would be shortest career elapsed before getting a penalty, held by vettel at 9 seconds

Stirling Moss would have won the world championship in 1958 if he hadn't gone to the stewards and got Mike Hawthorn un-disqualified from a race. The stewards disqualified Hawthorn from the Portuguese grand prix but Moss disagreed with their descision went to teh stewards and got him reinstated. Hawthorn came second that race got 7 points and ended up winning the championship by 1 point from Moss

most poles without taking a victory (5) Charles Leclerc: Lemme give that record a try.

3:35: I think Sainz listened to you 😂 He won in Silverstone a moment ago 👍

Andrea de Cesaris also holds the record for most starts in the sport without a win, 208

3:38 To be fair, I think drivers who eventually got their wins should be counted for this as well. That would put 4 drivers tied for 1st position. Depailler, Alesi, Hakkinen and Irvine already had 15 podiums before their first win. So, that gives Sainz a little bit more headroom :)

5:13 Um... Felipe Massa didn't come back until the start of the 2010 season. Ferrari replaced him with Force India's Giancarlo Fisichella and it happened right after his fluke pole and 2nd place finish in the 2009 Belgian Grand Prix.

Fun fact: Nick Heidfeld has the exact same record of most podiums without a victory in Formula E as well

Needs to be a part 2 to this video: Most runner up finishes in the championship without winning a title. Most last place finishes in a career. Fewest laps completed in a season (must have competed in every race)

Fastest penalty after carrier-start: Sebastian Vettel speeding in the pit lane on his way to his first free practice :D

Love it how Matt says that Carlos Needs a win and Carlos win the British GP. *Matt Predicts once more*

De Cesaris achieved 19 consecutive DNFs (I'm including his disqualified at Monaco in 1986 for Minardi), while still missing the last 5 races of 1985 after Guy Ligier fired him, so it could've potentially been 24 consecutive DNFs if Ligier hadn't fired him. The only reason he kept getting jobs in F1 was due to his Marlboro sponsorship, which brought in money to smaller teams that they needed to survive. He was fast but a bit too reckless with the cars - he lost a number of points-scoring positions due to mistakes and mechanical failures. He managed just 2 finishes for Brabham in 1987 (with the very powerful BMW turbo engine, but shocking car reliability in general), on the podium at Spa and outside the points in Australia.

Here's one for someone to work out. Most F1 test laps driven without ever being entered for a race - I remember a driver called Emmanuel Collard who always came up in articles about F1 testing in the 1990s but never got a shot at driving competitively. There may be others who have done even more.

Verstappen having a higher win percentage when Leclerc takes pole than Leclerc

Lewis Hamilton holds the record for the most wins in a season without winning the championship (10 in 2016). He also holds the record for the second most wins in a season without winning the championship (8 in 2021).

* Most entries without starting: Claudio Langes (14) * Most failed attempts to pre-qualify: Gabriele Tarquini (25) * Longest time between successive wins: 7 years (Riccardo Patrese, 1983 to 1990) * Longest time between successive podium finishes: 8 years (Alexander Wurz, 1997 to 2005) * Longest time between successive points finishes: 9 years (Robert Kubica, 2010 to 2019) Also: Ernst Loof was 2:17 off the pace... but he wasn't last on the grid. There was Ernst Klodwig (7 seconds behind Loof) and three drivers who didn't set a time in qualifying!

5:11 Apologies for correcting but Massa didnt return until 2010, Fisichella was the one to finish the season

Sainz be like "My time has come for my name be written in F1 history books"

3:40 Sainz proved you wrong WTF1 😂😂😂

I am so sad about Mr.Moss. One of the legends of the sport though without a title.

Very unique video idea, love all the research that went into it! Edit: The craziest record is the last one…and that he did it twice!

To be fair to Walker, Chapman put all his concentration into Fittipaldi and his car. He couldn't get any support as a rookie, then as time went on, Chapman paid less & less attention to him. He was on a hiding to nothing.

Nikita Mazepin - Finishing a season at a lower place than the regulated number of competitors: 21st out of a 20-driver grid.

Eyy you bois hyped for the Silverstone GP?

2:02 Hold my beer Ill show you slow xD

3:35 Carlos watching this: *and I took that personally*

@5:11 massa back? They got Fisichella to race for them. Massa was out for the rest of the season because of a spring from Barichello's car.

Well, I'm watching this vid after the 2022 Silverstone gp and there we go, Sainz finally got his win!

3:38 aged so well

2:12 Max Chilton is looking fly today.

Matt, you missed out the record that Charles now holds. He has the record for the most pole positions that he didn't convert into a win. He took it of off JPM in Baku I believe

Good ole’ anti-jinx on Carlos Sainz by WTF1, says he may break the record for most podiums without a win, then immediately wins at Silverstone to make sure he doesn’t take that record home

3:38 Carlos Sainz: say no more amigo

Massa didn't come back for the rest of 2009! Giancarlo Fisichella finished that season for Ferrari. Probably due to his performance at Spa. Then retired from F1 racing at the end of the season. Michael was heavily rumoured to return but was still suffering from a bike accident.

Im pretty sure you missed one. Most poles without a title - Rene Arnoux (18).

Andrea De Cesaris also owns the record for most races without a win (208) and most retirements in an F1 career (147). Bonus one : Most races for an F1 team without a win : 382 for Arrows/Footwork

"Carlos Sainz is going to have to get a victory soon." Here we are a week later

Carlos must have watched this video. Kudos to him!

Is it kind of a record that Brundle drove for Tyrrell, Williams, Brabham, McLaren, Ligier, Benetton, and Jordan - all race winning teams - but only once did those years coincide with an actual winning car (Benetton in 1992).

3:36 he did!

The type of videos you never expect to come out

You can remove that Sainz burn now...

Driver who has killed the most people: Christopher Wilder. An Australian driver who entered the 1984 Miami GP, Christopher Wilder was also known as "The Beauty Queen Killer," a serial killer who used his status as a race driver and photographer to lure in victims at the GP. I realize it's not a race record, but it is something that is not talked about at all in racing history but pops up a decent amount in the true crime world. Correction: he raced in the support races, not the f1 race. There are some sources that say he tried to qualify for the f1 race but failed.

Carlos Definetly watched this video

UPDATE: Sainz won a race.

Chris Amon's record just blew my mind, first time hearing about that - just when I thought I already read/heard about all of the crazy records...

Glad Carlos won't be the next Heidfeld after today!

I think that Mick Schumaher and Carlos Sainz can brake 2 of these records

Sergio Perez be like: -Most races before first pole position -Most races before first win If he only had most races before first fastest lap, it would be a nice hat trick...

We don't have to wait long to see Carlos on top step of the podium after this video 😂

3:37 AND HE GOT IT!

Even before the video starts, I liked and I didn't regret it. Very good ❤️

Yet another great video edit by Katie! ;)

Enjoyed this video. I'd forgotten about DeCesaris's DNF record. That banner about Badoer being slower than someone's grandma-ouch! Poor Chris Amon. Definitely the unluckiest of all time.

Out of contexts But I have had the best banana today

The most starts without finishing a race is definitely my favorite. My question is how does a guy keep a job if he can't finish a race 18 times to then match that record later on? It's unbelievable. And then you have guys like Sergio Perez who nobody wanted until Red Bull gave him a seat and now he's competing for a Championship.

Happy to report Carlos finally got his Grand Prix win this weekend in Silverstone. VAMOS!

This video was the boost Carlos Sainz needed 😂🤣

1:06 From what I remember, back in the day Colin Chapman was rumoured to be highly favouritist of his drivers, and it's entirely possible that, while Fittipaldi's car was a title contender, Walker was left with a comparative rustbucket.

0:30 I litearlly jumped off laughing when I recognize this crying man

Great video matt, Even better edits Katy 😂 #dontmissthejoke

I really enjoyed the Edit. Thnx Katie 😉

There is also one more: Shortest time from career start / session start to a Penalty: Sebastian Vettel when he was with BMW Sauber in Friday’s free practice sessions at the 2006 Turkish Grand Prix. Vettel was fined for speeding in the pit lane just 9 seconds into his Formula 1 career.

Carlos just saw this and is like shit aight

3:11 Jimmer is that you?!!

Did you guys synchronize this with "The Race" and their vid about the most unique records? 😅

In terms of shortest career Mario Dominguez is worth mentioning. His whole F1 career lasted only 1 lap during testing for Jordan in Silverstone in 2005. Conditions were too bad to drive for the most of the time given, so he drove only 1 lap and that's it. And he never got a chance to compete in official sessions and tests again.

Carlos Sainz won his first race today (3rd of July, 2022)

Once Mario Andretti said of Chris Amon "if he became an undertaker, people would stop dying". Andrea de Cesaris I guess still holds the record of flips in just one crash, that famous muddy at Osterreichring in 1985

5:02 Kimi only won the Belgian GP. He did not win in Valencia.

Heidfeld still holds that record.

Awesome video Katy, enjoyable as always

Two big things wrong regarding the facts around Luca Badoer: it wasn't Massa who replaced him after Spa (this is the other way round after Felipe's horror crash in Hungary), it was Fisichella. Also, it Spa where he was 14th and way behind Kimi, who won that race, not around Valencia

5:15 In 2009 Badoer was replaced by Fisichella, who scored 0 points for ferrari as well

One of my favorites: Most laps led in f1: Bernd Maylander (600+)

My favourite unwanted F1 record is David Coulthard 1998 Belgium grand prix when he caused the greatest crash of all time and wrecked 14 cars.

Would love a video to detail all those de cesaris dnf streaks.

I have a record for you guys: Not being able to even check Wikipedia to get a name right: It's "Hülkenberg" not whatever you were imagining when writing his name. (yes, even English Wikipedia has it right, you just had to copy and paste.)

7:26 I tried wiping my phone lmao

Hah, "Sainz has to win soon" -> Wins his first race directly afterwards

3:38 well that aged well.

Best story about Hans Heyer is that he participated in Le Mans 12 times and never Finished, but never because of a crash always because the car broke down... Won 4 WEC races though so quick guy

You guys and The Race having almost the same exact video on the same day is pretty crazy.. lol

The 2019 Haas should have a record for most race positions lost during a Grand Prix. Romain and Kevin would qualify in the top 10 only to finish 19th and 20th or not finish at all.

Mario Andretti once siad of Chris Amon's bad luck "If he became an undertaker, people would stop dying"

Hans Heyer: absolute legend for being the only driver to score the fuck up triple crown.

It's so weird that both you guys and The Race do a video on very similar subjects on the same day 🤔

Hulkenberg was also on for a podium in Singapore 2017, but retired due to a mechanical issue

Andrea was driving some seriously unreliable machinery when he scored that double 18 DNFs. Then again, Andrea was also pretty harsh on his equipment at times, and I'm not even talking about the many, many accidents he had.

Nice vid as usual

the last record is the most difficult to do. cuz in order for you to not finish 18 races in a row, you need to start 18 races without being dumped.

Thought of another one - Most Points score by a team finishing last in the Constructors Championship (doesn't really work for drivers as there's almost always a few no-scores and stand-ins). The largest I can find is 8 points scored by Toro Rosso in 2009. With the current scoring system, it could well be broken this year. One good race from Alex (Latifi? yeah, right) and Williams could get into double figures - yet still come last.

05:13 Massa didn't return for the rest of 2009. Giancarlo Fisichella moved from Force India to replace Badoer. Vitantonio Liuzzi then replaced Fisichella at Force India. Sadly Giancarlo Fisichella then showed how difficult the 2009 Ferrari was to drive, by not being much of an improvement on Badoer.

Major congrats to Carlos Sainz for getting himself out of the running here, finally WINNING at Silverstone!!!

0:45 that was a case of his car's rear axles locking up under braking, not his mistake.

Hans Heyer even managed a DNS as it was no official (legal) start and was disqualified for the next 5 GP races. Since Hockenheim was his only foray into F1 racing, you could also call it a lifetime ban.
