F1 Monaco 2001 Qualifying - Jean Alesi Lap

[LDis1]

Heck of a sound. What is should be...

[ImprovedMexican]

My goodness that Prost Acer was a good looking car!

[unwicked91]

Alesi really could've done so much more had he been at the right team at the right time.

[darthbandon10]

Sadly Alain Prost was not as good a manager as he was driver.

@NathanaelOctavianus Pan-American Sports Network

[NathanaelOctavianus]

@Finnishdude107 Oh....I see, thanks

[altroval]

@Finnishdude107 Yes, that was "left over" sponsorship from Gaston Mazzacane - whom they had fired in 2001. Fortunately, they signed another South American driver (Luciano Burti) and were able to appease them.

[MegaMrDamo]

@NathanaelOctavianus In 2001???

[MrThreshold2009]

He eventually qualified an outstanding 7th and probably would have been 3rd on the Sunday but for mechanical bothers. It has to be one of the best qualifying laps ever, surely. Poor old Alesi; he never got the right car. If only he'd gone to Williams instead of Ferrari. But, then, we wouldn't have had races like at Suzuka in '95.

[altroval]

@MrThreshold2009 I think you are thinking of 2000 - not 2001. In 2001 Alesi qualified 11th at Monaco but did manage to bring the car home in 6th for a point.

[MrThreshold2009]

@altroval I was indeed thinking of 2000. I must have been drunk to not notice the giant "2001" at the top of the screen. I hang my head in shame and drink another litre of Jack Daniels. Then I'm going to hit the gin, pernod, vodka, brake fluid, and babycham. After that I'll sleep off (or lose consciousness) through until the morning and begin my day with absinthe and shots of rum. THen I'll drink seven bottles of red wine, a shot of tequila, a bottle of brandy, and a glass of water for health.

I miss Prost F1 ... Nice looking car they had.. good drivers two !

Really enjoyed seeing H-H. Frentzen in the Prost..

Good times !

[austeyr3]

poor alesi, he is working so hard in that wheel

[baddoer]

Holy shit. Look at steering work, this car is just horrible.

[Finnishdude107]

@baddoer Yes thats true but also Alesi`s driving style was very aggressive always and cool to watch.

[altroval]

@baddoer No it wasn't. The 2000 Prost was pretty terrible (and Alesi DID flatter that car at Monaco in 2000) but the 2001 was generally considered pretty good.

Honestly, Alesi had lost a step by this time and I'm sad to say that he was more or less eaten alive by Jarno Trulli once he more or less swapped rides with Frentzen.

[darthbandon10]

@altroval Indeed, the 2001 Prost had Ferrari engines (although their cost probably contributed to the team's bankruptcy).

[kinslowdian]

I miss the dark blue Ligier's and Prosts, their colour was just as classic as Ferrari Red. 2001 was a great season

[brusnabullet]

Thumbs up if you want Alesi Back in F1

[Finnishdude107]

@brusnabullet He will go to Indycar next year.. Brave man!

[theformulaman1]

[theformulaman1]

[Finnishdude107]

@theformulaman1 Dunno how long.. Easisest to find out to type to google "Alesi indycar" ;)

[NOXXism]

[JohnTocky]

Thumbs up if you want that Prost Acer bring back in F1!

[rvind92g]

[JohnTocky]

@rvind92g Yeah, there was a beautiful paintjob! I remember the Yellow Jordan (like Murray said)

[WeLWets]

01 prost looks hard to handle but thanks 4 the video

[sinnae404]

Great footage!

[Emiins]

Best videos of YouTube. I love you man!

[Jamirofan89]

orgasmic sound!

[arena2101]

what video game is this, it looks amazing?

[Finnishdude107]

@arena2101 Its called F1 2001 by Easports.. They just renewed the grahics! ;)

[chrisjones1980]

@Finnishdude107 WTF!? This isn't in game footage you idiot, its live footage of Alesi at Monaco in 2001. What a muppet you two are thinking its a game.

[Finnishdude107]

@chrisjones1980 LOL it was a joke sir :D

[chrisjones1980]

@Finnishdude107 You dumb liar, you really DID think it was a game and now your just trying to come back with some dumb shit response to cover up the fact you were an idiot.

[Finnishdude107]

@chrisjones1980  If you are that smart and understand what iam saying. Why dont you speak finnish with us? ;)

[chrisjones1980]

@Finnishdude107 Wow, fantastic retort, your comeback skills are simply epic...Douche

[FPtuotanto]

@chrisjones1980 idiot, can anyone think this is a game?! he uploaded the video and he knows what this is! IF SOME1 IS STUPID, IT`S U!!

[FPtuotanto]

@chrisjones1980 helkkari mikä ääliö :D

[Finnishdude107]

@FPtuotanto No älä :D 

[mrhighspeedtrain]

@chrisjones1980 YOURE the stupid one. You obviously cannot understand a joke. ' Its called f1 2001 by easports... they just renewed the graphics' is clearly a sarcastic joke. Anyone would know that its not a video game so im surprised u reacted like u did. And anyway the person who said its called f1 2001 is the guy who uploaded it in the first place so i think he would know what he was uploading.

[CorvetteZr1S]

@Finnishdude107 I loved F1 2001, played that until it broke, then I held a funeral for its broken pieces.

[TheAlexMah]

mamma miì... alesi fa paura

[MakaPaka27]

Sterling effort in a very bad car!
