  • This has probably already been posted but here is a link to the actual video.  Thumbs up so others can listen to the great f1 acceleration!

    youtu.be/ lCdzrAYAS6M

  • I totally agree with the top comment! We want to hear the car sound! That is the music about cars!

  • Wait you took the original video and downloaded it, recorded it off your screen with a potato for minimum quality, then overlayed completely unfitting music, and re-uploaded it as your own (no rights info in the description). Makes sense. Then you put up an annotation for people to go to a website. Why the hell would anyone go there after this shit?

  • worst music in a car video

  • Yeaaaaa........the music. This, tolerable in a concert hall, but really......I'd really rather hear the music of the engine whinning up its revs and screetching the tires.

  • damn music

  • With the 1992 Williams Renault, this McLaren is an absolute work of art!

  • @CheRevolution76 dont forget the maclren honda MP4/4 1988

  • V owels not vouls!

  • Yep, no music on racing/car videos. Engine noise way better :)

  • I want to see the telemetry!

  • shitty music

  • turbonegro

  • really fast

  • 240p makes me hate the internet

  • "an"

  • Total crap, take 4 kids and get the shopping in an F1.

    It was a pointless event, ones a race car the other family motors why compare they do different jobs and neither can do the others you dont need a test just to prove the obvious..

  • What an incredible creature! :O

    ->Duh. Of corse I'm referring to the F1.

  • [shakes head at reiny6474] "this is a copy of top gear" - this "copied" top gear 3 years before top gear did it???? moron. wish i'd watched this without sound on :/

  • The video about the NSR500 speed is way better, it has more dramatic music

  • The sedan didn't catchup to the first car nearly as quickly as I thought it would.

  • Fuck driving a F1, Chuck Norris could beat all those cars.. On a pedal bike.

  • this is fun. would have been even better if they could have figured it more closely so that all 3 would cross the finish line at the same time.

  • this is a copy of top gear!

  • TURN OFF THE F@@@ing MUSIC!!

  • musica idiota

  • Isn't there a version of this CLASSIC film somewhere without this bullshit music???

  • Who decided we had to listen to mindless headbanger music to watch car videos?

  • omg the f1 car won FTW!!!!!!

  • good vid spoiled by the usual crappy music==we want the sound of engines not some mediocre band............

  • 473 people drive quiet little civics..

    Dont watch a car video to listen to music. Thumbs DOWN

  • F1 car is fast but it nothing, it only for game, we never got a chance to drive f1 car forever..

  • @Gwee2008

    For those fortunate enough to drive one...It must be quite a rush... Nothing like it..Just like top fuel drag racing...nothing accelerates faster than a top fuel dragster...0 to 330+ mph in 4 seconds...but WHAT A FOUR seconds...But the F1....Constantly well over 200 mph and going through those curves....yeah we can only dream...

  • Y put it against 2 "soccer mom" cars??

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • its a formula ffs!!! we want formula sound!!!!

  • What? Music sucks? This song is fucking awesome! D:

  • Now aint dat bout a bitch?! lol, Dat was a pretty dope video, and its crazy how fast these F1 cars actually are. If the wings were mounted upside down, it would prolly take lift. Nice video XD

  • @lotusboy24 if these things are going at full speed they can drive upside down in a tunnel

  • video sux..sorry

  • To answer your question: Really Fast

  • no music allowed on videos about cars

  • @JesseCyrussHarlow no music period!

  • @JesseCyrussHarlow may i re-quote that from no music ALLOWED on videos about cars to no music NEEDED on videos about cars?

  • @JesseCyrussHarlow Yep way wrong sound, revving F1 engine is the only appropriate noise one should be hearing

  • @JesseCyrussHarlow I totally agree!!! ESPECIALLY GAY TECHNO!!

  • Superb video! I love it!

  • couldn't 2 worse cars to compete agaisnt the F1 car, it might as well would been 2 trollys, bring on a veyron and a zonda than compare.

  • @gojipoj Easy comparison. At the Top Gear track, the Bugatti and the Zonda did 1:18 while the Renault F1 car did a wet lap of 0:59. Of course, the whole point was to compare an F1 car to normal road cars, and really to recreate a video McLaren had made back in the 80s doing the same thing complete with the F1 driver reading the paper.

  • But it wouldn't be acceptable :D

  • Mclaren The Legendary Car

  • I think the fastest F1 car speed was 417KPH which is about 255 mph.

  • @ no f1 car has ever gone that fast

  • @lerroc An F1 car actually has yet they say it was "not-official" or some BS.

  • @NANOFORGE so no, it hasnt

  • @lerroc Erm yes it has, it says as much on Wikipedia.

  • XD . . . sicuramente è stata una scommessa tra piloti, dopo una serata MOLTO alcolica... MA DAI!!!!!! XD

  • I wonder what the pit crew were doing while Coulthard read the paper.... oh yeah working their arses off :O amazing machines though.

  • why do people put music on vis like this? let's listen to the cars..not some shitty music..jeeze

  • you forgot to capitalize the F in Finnish

  • name of the song???

  • @xXwarstuserXx Mother fuckers' got nothing to lose? Haha. Just kidding.

  • great video

  • gret video

  • they copied this from Ferrari

  • @matrixlalala, u mean that schumacher lap? Actually this kind of challenge is older, theres one on 1990 with Senna on Estoril, when there were an Honda Civic, a Porsche 911 turbo and Senna on his MP4/5. It's on youtube.

  • @ferhdas yes, but what i mean is that they copied even the reading of the newpaper!!!

  • @matrixlalala, ahh, i got your point =D

  • wtf....where's the engine sounds!

  • I miss this layout of Silverstone. Another F1 season with yet another "refinement" of THE classic, and first, Formula 1 circuit. And now we have an additional design by Tilke being installed in Austin, Texas of all places. Bernie Ecclestone should fucking retire...like right now.

  • wild boys

  • Unfunny meme is unfunny.

  • slow car is slow

  • Pit orders were given to Fiat to slow down.. That old hag still had enough gas to finish at least 2nd..

  • DC rulz

  • short answer; very fast.

  • ki bom

    

  • F1 cars not the fastest but they have the neck snapping cornering, stoping, and acceleration, but not the fastest

  • @jhund5 Exactly, but if u cant do those cornering or stopping.. Then it aint racing :P

  • @skvakagud

    Fastest means fastest lap time on a normal track, where car is going like a car, not like a rocket on lake or oval.

  • @jhund5 that's simply because of regulations, safety, etc...

  • LULZ PLZ COMMENT KK??!!!!11

    faggot

  • el clase A levanto un poco el pie el final

  • like gt4

  • DAMN beautiful old mclaren!

  • Great timing, this F1 driver is reading newspaper :D

  • Real nice, its hard to realise how terribly fast those cars are when you see them all at the same speed in a GP. Interesting vid.

  • garbage.

  • Well of course they had to do this since Jeremy Clarkson did it a year or so before... though his race was Rally v Road v F1 around Silverstone

  • you should of thrown a smart car in there with you guys

  • "If you like this video, pls comment!" So, I'm not supposed to comment?

    You guys who think you like cars make me sick. As soon as the audio is overdubbed with music, you lose a vital component of the recording. You don't have to drive a race car to understand that the ability to hear what is happening is important as that is also vital information.

    I am guessing that this trend in automotive videos is due to all the simulations that are out there in game land/lame land – Go play, kids.

  • @BradfordtheEclectic I agree 100%, I had rather hear the cars.

  • that's awesome, very dangerous for the normal driver, I guess I'll just stick with my video game

  • David and McLaren is and was cool thanks for the effort for our enjoyment

  • ogoood

  • This is a copy of the Ferrari test for the TOP Gear shown from BBC.

  • @danielribeiro1

    really? this was made back in 1997 when McLaren still used slicks on their F1 cars. It's the OTHER way around.

    The Mercedes A-class was new in 1997, and the E-class looks like a mid 90's model. Not to mention David Coulthard looks a lot younger than he does today.

    This was from 1997. End of freakin' story

  • isnt the song calle age of pamparius!

  • that lewis hamilton driving the black merc?

  • nope, it's some other guy. lewis was just a kid when this was made!

  • @jordanr1504

    nope, because he was only 12 in 1997 when this was made

  • @jordanr1504

    No as Mclaren in old silver livery & coulio looking so young must be late 1990,s close up of other drivers faces i think 1 was a German driver from DTM.

  • no luggage compartment.

  • A bit boring, and they got it wrong, they set the F1 car off too soon. You can see the F1 is waiting as they go through Luffield (the last corner) when they are finally together so the F1 looks like it can only corner as fast as 90's saloon car

  • this is gay

  • @poochybaby69 i think if it didnt have the music it would be alright. but with that music it is fucking gay.

  • outstanting!

  • I remember seeing another version with Niki Lauda driving a MCLaren I think and I seem to remember one of the other cars was a 928, I think It was made by Shell.

  • i like this video(:

  • Remember a movie from the 70's called the quick and the dead where they did the same thing

  • Its 1997 - first year of the West livery on the McLarens. Coulthard was with McLaren in 1996 though, but they still had the old Marlboro colours.

  • the video made by ferrari is from 1996. this one must be made later because david coulthard was driving for williams in '96....

  • Nope, he was driving 'til 95, Jacques Villeneuve became Hill's teamate with William in 96. Coulthard drove with Mclaren in 96

  • ferrari did it in one lap these is doing it in two laps

  • @scrapkilla321

    how is that TWO laps in Silverstone???

  • @McLarenMercedes they went all the way around twice before it cached up

  • You guys have nothing to loose, Pamparius...

  • yeh ferrari did it with all italian cars

    not sure which one came first

    great indication of how fast f1 cars really are!

  • Great video,Lots of imformation.Thanks for posting this video.

  • phonetically its an F1 since we pronounce f as eff, but gramatically its a F1, in the end who reaaaaally cares say it how you want to say it

  • music suck.. it is originally narrated.. that was much better

  • Comment removed

  • Thaaank you!

  • @hemfrid But like 'an hour' you write and pronounce it like you would pronounce it. No-one will ever say 'a hour'. An F1 car, a Formula 1 car. END OF !

  • @abcd827 Not to be a douche, but even if it does start with a consonant, but has the vocal sound of a vowel (EFF 1) then it's AN.

    Example: An Xbox, An F1 car.

    But not for: A FIGHTER JET (FFFFFIIIIIIIII - doesn't start with a vowel)

  • @ba3cool Maybe I wasn't clear enough when I referred to the words "formula one," not the shortened "F1"

  • @abcd827 but when there is only a single F, then you will add the "an", so this video's title should be How fast is an F1 car?

  • @srwtk100 that doesnt make sense....

  • @rossesc Oh yes it does If you don't think about what F1 stands for ;)

  • @abcd827

    No. The factor determening the 'a' or 'an' is not the letter of the following word as vouls or consonants, but the phonetic dynamics involved with pronunciation.

    Eks: "An hour"

    even though 'h' is a consonant, the phonetic letter for it in this case is 'ó'

    An F1 car

    A formula one car.

    Hope it's understandable.

  • @Gisatan OH MY GOD. I am taking down my comment because people are stupid. I said that if you read "F1" as "Formula 1" then it would be acceptable.

  • @Gisatan Yup! I hate it when a lot of people on youtube get grammar wrong. Microsoft Word and spell checkers are making us dumber...

  • @Gisatan i came in here ready to explain that to someone. haha. nevermind

  • It should be

    How fast is "AN" F1 car.

  • =o wow

  • Ferrari did THIS a looooong time ago. Mercedes copied it, as so much...... (e.g. LED's in the front of the e-class => invented by audi)

  • @BremerSohn

    really?? This was done by McLaren in 1997. The proof? The slicks Goodyear tires.

  • rape

  • I think they should have all started at the same time, to see how many times Coutlhard would have lapped the road cars during their one lap

  • this is done sooooo many times.... and all tries were on silverstone... why don't they use another track or something?

  • so does every company in F1 have to do this or what?

  • the answer is......VERY FAAAAST!!! <3

  • very good video.. worthless retarded soundtrack.

  • Surprised Coulthard managed to catch them and then not crash into them.

  • hahahaha

  • that fat mercedes van, oh, should have got an slk the challenge cld have been better

  • hell yeah Turbonegro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • That was very well made and very well timed obviously. Very cool!!!

  • P.S. What's the name of the song?

  • "The Age of Pamparius" by Turbonegro. Off the album "Apocalypse Dudes".

  • ahahahah very good!!!!!!!

  • The guy walking up to the e class is white so I don't think it's Lewis Hamilton.

  • that was David Couldthard

  • No, Bernd Schneider

  • @PersiaTeddy95

    Coulio finishing reading the paper, great humourous touch.

  • he is also probably not a fuckhead, so its definitely not lewis hamilton!

  • @trevorwinton

    Why be rude about Lewis none of us mortals could drive as well him, plus there will only be a few professional drivers in history & to come, will be in his league, I think over next 10 + years we will realise what incredible F1 history we have witnessed.

  • @1schummif yeah he is talented, but i just think he is a fuckhead...

  • @trevorwinton Based on what?

  • Awesome vid.. well timed

  • its amazing that the maclaren made it a whole lap with out its engine braking down! :D

  • coolll

  • Does anyone know if thats lewis hamilton driving the E class, would make sense, he would hav probs been racing in formula renault at that time and be backed by mclaren so would make sense

  • @james28987

    no he was only 12 in 1997 when this was made

  • F1 Rules

  • holy shit!!

  • 3:48 = SMOKED.

    HAHAHA

  • They should have put a ford ranger in there too.

  • heh, the point of the video is to make a COMPARISON.

  • awsome

  • I Like it

  • DUDE WHAT SONG IS THIS

  • The Age of Pamparius, Turbonegro.

  • cool vid!

  • awsome!

  • It was actually shot by ITV F1 for their F1 coverage in the UK. It did not transmit with this song on it. The track is Silverstone. Now that is a fact.
