F1 Coulthard illegal parking in Bratislava

[NieelzzZ]

whats the song???

[multimedialo]

@NieelzzZ - Song is made just for this video by soundcloud com /formanek

[Haydinho21]

*would the man with the Red Bull racing car, thats the Red Bull racing car, please come to reception*

[Scalli97]

that wasn't a real f1 car

the guy removed it from the street like it's weight is less than 50kg

[Thunterpunter]

It was most likely a rolling chasis, cos who would leave a tens of million dollar

[Bandolero241]

wtf?

[NeNzO334]

XD

[BeauKnight96]

haha the guy picks the car up :D

[HekateMGO]

@BeauKnight96 Yes, 07-08 cars weighed only 545kg. Compare: a Smart ForTwo weighs 740-ish O_O

[shu225kan521]

what`s this???

[fastmclaren71]

transformers... Mechanics in disguise.!!!

[KingBucky898]

i guess he just drank too much alcohol!

[mouserorignal]

WTF

[hits888]

I know someone who used to be Red Bull Test engineer who used to go to promo events for setups. They did a loads of streets demos on public roads like the one in this video. The car in this video was most likely a shell model, i seriously doubt Red Bull leave a car on the streets and unattended.

[hits888]

Minimum car weight is 605Kg, but the actual car weighs around 450Kg so the teams add ballast to bring the weight to the minimum limit.

[clyrenternal]

I never understood right...

If the cars add lead wieghts, why do they reject KERS for being to heavy?

[hits888]

If you where add KERS, You would end up removing Ballast which you then mess up the balance of the car.

[gattopazzo80]

That's because the ballast (your lead weights) can be placed in the most useful places while the kers has an obliged placement ;)

For example kers is quite back while actual slick tyres demanded a more advanced weight balance than last year's tyres.

[guillermo968]

cause teams can't put the weight were they want if using the kers and hving it place on a certain spot in the car. therefore, thy use lead, and place it wherever they want to put it in the car

[hits888]

For those of you who think the mechanics lift the car in order to change the wing you are wrong, there are two sets of lifts on each side which the mechanics use once the car has stopped. If a nose cone needs to be replaced, it will be unclipped and carried away by 2 people whilst a third person will have a new nose cone waiting on the trolly which he would then place back into the slots and clip it in.

[Piccinels]

Guerrilla Marketing... LoL :D

[quaecky]

replica

[Streitstarter]

it's not fake ..a car weights around 500-520kg ..the back is much much heavyier than the front ...

i mean when a car loses the wing in the back while driving and it beginns the spin it always hits the wall with the back of the car beacause thats the heavy point

[opmike343]

While they indeed have a rear weight bias, that is not the reason why it would spin upon losing downforce to the rear.

[icemen77]

FAKE lol

[storck08]

seriously guys it's some replica, I saw one in Renault dealership, made from plastic, only size is the same

[julesana18]

LOL !

[ImmortalSenna]

and F1 is far from wimpy. it may not be a road car but its the pinacle of motorsport tech. Audi rules the road cars and they dont want to go to F1 because even they are scared to join. i dont see GM or Dodge or Ford in there. Ford have been there i know but they would get smoked today.

[BMaestro]

lol its not because Audi are scared to join F1. It's just financial planning whether they should go in or not.

[ImmortalSenna]

for sure that now is the case but they dont have any experience in open wheel racing.

[ImmortalSenna]

lol weird and just cuz a guy lifts the front of the car doesnt mean its not real. 600 KG including driver and all the weight is in the back. 3 power lifters could probably bench press an f1 car no more then 4 anyway. lol think about that and how many horses it has

[vuetube]

yeah, right. go ahead and try to lift the front of a 1500 lb car Einstein. It takes a know it all...you'd be lucky if you could lift your retard helmet off your head

[ImmortalSenna]

ok man ive seen a man lift a helicopter to get a drowning pilot out. all the weight sits on back wheels. its called phisics its A LEVER! i do believe ive seen 2 mechanics lift the car in the front when the wing is gone. THATS RIGHT THEY DO AND DO IT EASY. shut up man your a dick and you are far from Einstein yourself.

[KoivuTheHab]

@ImmortalSenna Actually it's called Physics...

[STOUTYCTR]

@ImmortalSenna PHYSICS......Dumb Cunt!

[regorgnow]

F1's dont weigh that much. Its mostly all carbon fibre and aluminum.

[stoopid12yroldkid]

Indeed

[mix69rtk]

yes, but the engine is between the wheels, and if you trie to wake up it from the nose, it's heavy! you can't do that!

it's fake

[gordie22rip]

hey lift them in pit stops when the nose is damaged its not fake

[mix69rtk]

but they do that with a lever, not just with the hands, and when they do that in pit stop, they raise it about 5 cm, notso much like in the clip

[sixtolojunior]

the engine is on the back, not in the front, you can wake up a Formula One car from the nose, but i'm sure that Red Bull Racing would not leave his real car parked there.

[1996kj]

you mean the engine is in the midile

[sixtolojunior]

well, behind of the seat

[lolsokje]

they weigh somewhere like 500 kg. I wonder if you could lift it!

[syedjaafar]

hahaah!

[tussisussi]

lol nice

[toetagjeee]

LOL!

[AngelH91]

can i make the point that if that was the real red bull f1 car then one man could never lift it that easily. Obviously a PR stunt.

[luputtaja]

now almost all weight of that car still is back so it could be posible :P

[Antipwnsurmum]

easy to lift the front mate, engine's in the back

[AngelH91]

yea i realised that after i posted the comment. wasn't thinking right. but still i seriously doubt Red Bull would leave a million dollar car like that on the street

[bicho28]

why did those guys removed the frontwing??

[multimedialo]

because of driving on bloody city streets...

[craigg1981]

@multimedialo Actually cause they couldnt get it on the flatbed without taking ot off........ Thats a red bull mechanic pushing the car dumbass......

[MultiJimmyHenry]

@multimedialo Actually it was so it could fit on that trailer

[tuned2008]

they stole it to sell on ebay

[bicho28]

xD that was a good one...

[HighAlbino]

whahaah lol

[djoli101]

the angle of the car on the ramp would of been to steep for the car to go up the ramp. like on topgear when hammond struggled to get out of the carpark in france with the zonda

[kybusch18]

@bicho28 porque si no el carro no podria subir la rampa

[elpumi16]

@bicho28

ask your self how could they but the car on the truck with the wing on the car?

they cant.

[master11555]

@elpumi16 lol watch again pleease, ther was no one on the car :D

[elpumi16]

@master11555

What?

I said they cant put the car in the truck with the nose cause it will hit the floor doing that.

[messsssup]

@bicho28 cause frontwing will snapped if car tilt by tow. its happen on my car.

[davorsertic]

@bicho28 because they had to move the formula on the truck...

[cassin16]

@bicho28 that had to take it off so they could get the car on the flatbed truck. if they left it on, they would have damaged it

[F1Mad93]

@bicho28 because if the front wing had been on when rolling the car back onto the truck, it would have broken off

[MwMichelin]

@F1Mad93 im not sure but i dont think it would break that easly sure it breaks at 200/300 kmph at some rear wheels turning like crazy,, but it would most defenitly scratched the surface underneat wich would impact the results of that wing:)

[Woodp3ck3r]

@bicho28

If not they would damage it when towing the car <.<

[Bruce10000]

@bicho28 To stop it bottoming out on the ramp.

[zabraoota1]

@bicho28 because the front wing will hit the ground and won't make it on to that flat bed!!

[hotmailyu]

lol their little fucks there

[jessse288]

its pry legal in alaska you can even take monstr trucks on the road cuase theres no wheele size limit due to all of the machines that drive on it

[yorchreloaded]

WTF?

[TrevorOfCrete]

wasnt this just a pr stunt?

[multimedialo]

It was opening of a new highway tunnel in Bratislava, that was the main reason why F1 was there.

[minirampskater]

a didn't hink they were road legal..?

[RoachGhia]

Oh, they're totally legal on the street. I drive one to work every day. no biggie.

[Jermainesmit21]

haha you wish:P

[Bruce10000]

@RoachGhia There is a guy in Japan who has a road legal F1 car :)...indicators n all lol

[plmcmm]

@Bruce10000 do you have any links about the road legal f1 car?

[Bruce10000]

@plmcmm Well it was a long time ago and i can't fully remember the TV show , it might have been "The Jonathan Ross" show but no sry i don't have any links only a fading memory of the segment , i guess it was aired about 15 yrs ago.

[plmcmm]

@Bruce10000 Ok, thank you for your answer :) I'll try a search, maybe I'll find something

[Bruce10000]

@plmcmm gl, i'll have a look later too.

[D4mo84]

I guess the only thing that isn't legal (depending on country) are the tires. It's safer than any other road-going car :P

[RoachGhia]

Yeah, throw a set of goodyear eagle radials on it and it'd be good to go.
