Micahel Schumacher Karting

[richyrich2336]

I think schumi owns the number 1 at this point, and the rights to the italian national anthem. Nothing was better than being 12 and watching him hold up the ferrari name and the anthem to set up all the celebrating. Truly inspiring

Take a look at some on board footage ,Snr Rotax Three sisters NKF round 4 -

[coolcarman555]

its funny how their heads all go on way when they r going around a turn 0:44

[34sodi34]

this track is "Kerpen" in germany, i kart to, rotax max junior, and i meet him but a field of 20 is nothing, because i drive with a field of 36

[Thejmat271]

wow hes good

[rowanationer]

how old is schuey here?

[3slotes]

CRG = Birel before i didnt know that

[douma4000]

Thats Nico Hulkenberg at 2:16

[puddingpants7]

@douma4000 Is it? He looks so young whats his age here?

[woody0900]

I gotta get me one of those!

[rtfk101]

karting looks so funny to watch.

[YPC94]

The Track is Erftlandring (Kerpen-Manheim), his homecircuit, isn't it? :)

[Crazyflasher10]

FUCKING 2006 WOW!! 4 YEARS... THIS MOST BE ONE OF THE FIRST VIDEOS ON UTUBE

[vinilaserman]

I have not seen worse

[scapache]

everyone probably got told to move out of the way on team radio.. lol

nah kidding, he's a great driver

[fathead5807]

this isant schumacher

[tatascritch]

@ekietido: before saying bullshit check out Nations Cup where M.Schumacher and S.Vettel represent germany and they won nations cup 3 times in a row. And check out race of champions and see how many times Schumacher won Race of Champions. And all racers have the same car and then you will see that Schumi is the best and will be the best ^^

[dalmacdenTV]

Sounds like a mosquito attack!!!!

[5italkart]

real kart engines not those boggy rotax long live iame leopard!!!!

[Rotorandi]

3d-heli.de.tl

[rizzleman]

sounds like flies

[ttjappiie]

This is his home track in Kerpen

[Marcelim02]

Schuey is even better at go karts than in F-1. He wins almost every race he enters.

[Topkartracing]

KERPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)

[bongst3m]

kart racing is some the most rawest form of racing.... Pure driver skills, not so much car. Mini f1!

[gokartlegend]

everyone are idiots, this is at the same time as when he was driving formula 1!!!

[fillefilander]

@gokartlegend hahaha....like everybody doesn´t already know that. It's only that you doesn't understand a joke! :-P

[nandokart27]

mano, ele anda muito

[MeTerryBailey]

uhmgerade ziemlich kuschelbedürftig wer möchte mit mir chilln hab auch ne web cam

[TheBusiness55]

Haha everyone just punts Schumacher at the first corner!

[MaharishiMahaYogi]

Wow this guys good, Maybe he will make it to F1 someday!!!

[jwhitner]

You gotta start somewhere!

[philiprobinson1991]

you dummy he is the 7 TIME WORLD CHAMPION

[elibeli2595]

is it really schumi? driving style is fairly apparent...

fan-fricking-tastic! =D

How does one start karting competitively? idk how =(

[jimscotland73]

Karting must be a great deal of fun when you consider that despite everything schumacher has acheived he obviously still get a buzz from it.

[FRFM00]

I didn't notice that was Hulkenberg standing there at the end. Wow

[elibeli2595]

hahaha is it really??

he's gonna be goood

[316whipyaass]

It is FA and ICA, not ICC. I drove in this Race too.

[danescuserban]

ICA,or FA, that means 100cc 2 stroke water cooled, direct transmition(no clutch or gearbox)

[Itech127]

Kerpen !:D

[tg1w]

wow... winning from so far back. That was quite a good performance!

[minimax33]

the class is either formula A or ICA

[tim350black]

i think its ICC which makes it 125cc gearbox. definately not a rotax/vortex/leopard

[tim350black]

sorry just got a good look at the exhaust, its not ICC its some kind of non-gearbox kart

[xxflavio2004xx]

excellent shumi one day I will be I will be a Formula 1 as good as you .. at least we hope ..

[yoGOES]

maybe rikonin and massa should retire as well since they will never accomplish what mike did

[marcmeynet]

@yoGOES bout u retire? they are still good! michael ofcourse is good

[laurelaitken89]

He won this Race in front of a young dutch driver...die favourtite german driver there was nico hulkenberg whos gonna drive in f1 2010 for williams along side rubens barrichello.

Enough facts?;)

[Fatoshi000]

So what place was he ?

[constantine4711]

it's 2003

[Worrall82]

what kind of engine in those little rascalz

[1foren]

Vortex KF 125

[yoGOES]

so for sprint class its only 125 not 250?

what are the regulations and what league is this called?

[1foren]

125 no gears. The class in US is called KF they have a couple different classes depending on Rev limiter. check Ekarting news or Pro Kart Challenge Michael was just in Vegas running a Vortex 125 Shifter.

[polychomaticzena]

@1foren This is NOT the abomination that is KF. It's FA and or ICA. 100cc direct drive reed and rotary valve. No starters, clutches or powervalves. Just pure, no compromise racing engines. Listen to the RPMs and its pretty easy to tell its not KF, even SKF won't hit these kind of revs.

[marcmeynet]

@1foren vortex or rotax? i cant see it

[freedomsoldier187]

watch out he might crash into you so you lose the championship !!!

[yahul25]

(:-D ...... jenson dint see that, he was looking somewhere else !! (you talkng about that montoya incident ya ?

[Rannngo]

Whats your point red33m23? Why are you saying colors, sounds like if Senna had black hemlet and blue suit that he would be just another f1 driver. He IS the best driver becouse of his skills!

[MaTeMeGo]

idiot... please read another time the comment and try to understand it. "WHO COULD EVER KNOW THAT "THE GUY" THAT WAS WEARING RED SUIT AND YELLOW HELMET WAS GOING TO BE THE BEST F1 DRIVER" ok now u understand it?

[red33m23]

who could ever know that the guy with the red suit and yellow helmet was going to be the best F1 driver of all times...

[azffaz]

i agree u.. dont give a fuck about the idiot who -1 ur comment

he is just stupid didnt get the point

[Mcyoussef]

@red33m23 hah you realize that this kart race is from the year where schumacher already was racing in the f1 ^^?

[Johnboy4310]

@red33m23 He had already won a couple of F1 titles when this was taping...

[artal85]

@Johnboy4310 Yeah, this is the the karting world championship in 2000, he participated after his 3° F1 title, the first with Ferrari. A curiosity: in this year the karting world championship was gained by Vitantonio Liuzzi, the driver that today drives Force india in F1 and schumy, in this race, finished 2° own behind Liuzzi.

[ekietido]

@red33m23

he is not the best... He had a rich team with a good car. Look at him now...if he is so good...why he can't win any race right now?

[red33m23]

@ekietido Because he is not young enough right now...F1 drivers have an expiration date because driving these cars at those speeds need superhuman reaction times. Sumacher is over this expiration date so it is expected he can't drive that well right now! I thought this was going to be obvious though...

[ekietido]

@red33m23

So you assume that if Schumacher would be in RBR or in Mclaren right now, he would not be in the top 3 leaders in this championship?

C'mon admit that - formula 1 is about of track work 70% and only 25% about personal racing skills plus 5% luck.

Put Hamilton in his sensational year not into Mclaren but into something like Force India...- yeah, no more famous Hamilton.

Michael Just had a very good back up team - whole Ferrari was working for him.

He is not the best of all times

[red33m23]

@ekietido Ferrari wasn't his first team...he was astonishing before he went to Ferrari. Button for example was with Honda at first. and now he is one of the best.

[ekietido]

@red33m23

Well True. But - what I want to say is that there are a lot of many other drivers who can be faster or the same good like Michael and he is not the only one who is good in f1. I don't mean any hating mate! I respect your point of view! :)

I would like to see the karting race between all f1 drivers with the same conditions for eachone. So then we could say who is faster and who is...not.

[red33m23]

@ekietido I agree! Kart racing is the rawest form of racing. a kart race would show us the best!

[sutton513]

@red33m23 ermmm all of us =P as this video was taken AFTER all of his world championships (if i remember correctly). The overalls he has on are Ferrari overalls.

[lindonise]

@red33m23 well, everybody knew, because he alredy was a multi f1 world champion; this video was taken just a few years ago, for Schumacher this race was only recreational (if the resolution was better, you would see the ferrari emblem on the yellow patch in the back of his helmet)

[RodoxRox]

@red33m23 But wait, isn't Ayrton Senna the best of all time?

[TheSmileandreas]

@red33m23

video was recorded a long time after schumi had several championship titles, and indeed the best f1 driver of all times had a yellow helmet and his name was Ayrton Senna

[alless22]

@TheSmileandreas we can all argue about that but sofar Schumi does have 7 WC and no one beat him and that makes him the best F1 driver sofar.

What if questions are ruled out becase i know some will come whit what if senna wouldnt die and that he would win more, well maybe but he didnt. Get over that people and start living whit that that Schumacher is best F1 driver sofar and for sure he will stay few more years if not for ever! Right now only one who can beat him is only himself!

[malja75]

@alless22 Yeah, he's got 7 bathrooms :) just kiddin'

[MrMofo4eva]

@alless22 sofar is two words so far you annoying freshy. and second of all how the hell do we know that is really michael schumacher i mean for all we know its some hungarian porn star called ferenc. its ridculous how gullible people are and just blindly believe anything they read. believing everythn u read is a big no no

[limcrew]

@red33m23 the guy with red suit and yellow helmet is not michael schum...

[tinyOnick]

@red33m23 THE BEST F1 RACER OF ALL TIMES WAS FANGIO, SCHUMY SAID IT.

[carmodifire]

@tinyOnick ? SCHUMY said senna was the best, he said so in a documentary about senna.

[KartDude123]

@red33m23 Schumacher isnt, Senna is!

[wimpiedimpie]

@red33m23 who?

[Onrizzle]

@red33m23 this video is when he was already a multiple f1 world champion. The video is taken between 2000 and 2004 when he had the ferrari logo at the back of his helmet. He's wearing his ferrari race suit

[TheUser10110]

@red33m23 Ayrton Senna... end of story

[NZ77NZ]

@red33m23 I wouldn't call him the best, Ayrton Senna in my opinion was, however Michael is ONE of the best that ever lived.

[dsgiag]

yo era el segundo tengo mi cartin aca en mi casa lu uso para andar por la calle

[LucasFD2009]

You have to look my newest Video mit my KART !!!!! ITS SOOOOO AMAZING !

[sbnature]

Wait, he went off track and wins in a field of 20? His skills are supreme on every level.

[puddingpants7]

@sbnature Dude these are like young kids hes racing. He knows all the tricks in the book they are just blossoming give it a rest.

[sbnature]

@puddingpants7

I don't even remember the comment above, but I see some sarcasm I hope. He's not god of motorsport for sure.

[philateliceun]

@puddingpants7 still a pretty impressive feat considering those children really aren't that bad, those kids way half what schumacher weighs and the fact that he started from practically the last place. Its an amazing opportunity for those kids.

[catgiu007]

sound like BEEes vrrrrrrrrr brrrrr haha

[BogusBubble]

what cc are those karts?

[JJTDevelopments]

125?

[rogerwilco3]

100 CC engines running at high rpm approx. 21000 rpm maximum for the aircooled engines and a bit lower for the liquit cooled enignes around 17500 Formula A and Formula Super A are both running 100 cc the only difference during that time was the carberatur and the airintake FA reed valve only and FSA was free

[DontScatter]

sounds like the CRG 125 i used to race.

so i'm going to guess its a 125cc 2 Stroke

[GhostriderPL23]

You are wrong.....It was the GRAF BERGE VON TRIPS MEMORIAL....And a week later there was the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ;-) I know because i Race there too...sorry for bad english

[rogerwilco3]

it could be :-) since i not have been there at that time since i had a sabatical in that year because of to much work at home

[rogerwilco3]

yes i did but most of times at 100 cc machines. the ones i preffer more

[cncondron]

Was that the European championship race in Kerpen?

[rogerwilco3]

yes it was it was the European championship formula A and formula Super A if i am not mistaken it was in 2006 or 2007 correct me if i am wrong

[guusgraspop]

your wrong,

It was just a race for the traditional winter cup at kerpen.

He only won the last race. He had a bit of help because the top 4 all crashed. The one in the CRG kart is hulkenberg. I know because i was there.

[light911214]

yep

in Michael's own gokartcentrum

[mcmaexmcmc]

no its not. its in kerpen - manheim, the track he started at. first think then comment, ok?

[veyronzondaf]

I would love to see all current F1 drivers in a cart race to see who really is the best. F1 makes it real difficult to know.

[cncondron]

It'd be hard to know in karts too the top kart racers try 4 or 5 engines before choosing which one to race. There's a big performance difference when the driving standard is very high. The kart or car always effects a drivers performance. We'll never really know who's fastest.

[rogerwilco3]

i have been a go kart driver in the past and mechanic for several driversaroundthe world i can tell you that between the engines is not that big amount of difference. Max 0.3 second all commes if the kart is not getting to sticky on the rubber that the chassis keep rolling. because driving on rubber looks like run a car on the handbreak

[cncondron]

Really did you ever race or work on gearbox karts?

[Fuckenazerbejan]

I have see, Micahel Schumacher wins, i ting its was 2000 or 2001

[wDwxBravo]

In my opinion Michael Schumacher is the best racer to date :)

[nothingface1984]

yea but only because senna is death

[farindbz]

But still, Michael Schumacher did not able to pass him for a long period if with the same pace.

[dennipooo]

schumacher is a fucking beast god dahm passing like 6 cars in like 2 minutes shit

[Iroteck]

did schumacher win??

[Stinjek]

i think so... i mean, he was kind of happy in the end

[Iroteck]

thank you very much!!!

[kartracerkento8]

wat year was this

[vivaSchumi7]

tonykart #1!!!!!!!

[stride99]

its Formula A

[parilla93]

this video is old, The Kf1 2 and 3 engines just started in 2007

im pretty sure this is Formula A or formula super A

[markosracing]

it's changed all, new motori, longlifemotor and renamed ica= kf2, formula A=kf1 or super KF, kf3 is ica junior;)

[daphiL1337]

Its Kerpen Manheim

[aaalexxx78]

why did they remane the classes from ica j., ica, icc, fa, s2000, to kf3, kf2, kf1, kz3,

kz2

[montoya6k]

schuey drove pretty nice,and you can see how he move onto his opponents though,it's not all about winning,its all about skills..you win you dominate

[zoz53]

they drive s 2000

[javi0880]

that doesn't sound like a rotax engine maybe ICA

[kartingfreak88]

its prob one of those kf1 or kf2.

[holdengirl51]

is he racing rotax??

[primussucks]

Lewis certainly would ;)

[kartkid33]

The uk looks like they have good tracks

[primussucks]

thats' why we make the best drivers ;)

[5CRG]

Not really, you have hamilton, but what about senna??? or nikka H.??? and of course Micheal. not one of them is Engish

[holdengirl51]

yeah exactly... but i have to admit there karting get heaps of acknowledgement... im from australia and i race karts... and alot of people dont even know what it is

[5CRG]

I race karts to i race a 125 shifter. Everyone thinks karting is like battery powered 10 mph top speed. it pisses me off

[holdengirl51]

yeah and they think that there is no skill required and we are 'sitting on our arses doing nothing' they have no idea the fitness involved

[primussucks]

what about stirling moss? nigel mansell? damon hill? jim clark? design-wise, who invented the modern day f1 car? an englishman named colin chapman! do some research mate!

[5CRG]

Yes that is ture but they are not the best

[primussucks]

how aren't they the best? graham hill and jim clark won both the f1 champ AND the indy 500! graham hill even added the le mans 24 to his collection! in cars with no gizmos and aerodynamics! are you mental?! what about john surtees? motorcycle champ AND f1 champ! with the exception of emerson fittipaldi, how many other drivers won indy and f1? really, do some research.

[lylelammers]

Think you lost this one 5CRG, Hamilton may be the only great English F1 racer right now but when you look at the history, England and if you include all of Great Britain, Jackie Stewert, have the best drivers. Second is a fight between Brazil, Germany, and Finland. Might I add Hamilton is a beast, I live in the US and went to the race in Indy every year, he was amazing, the races are starting to blur together but I think it rained that year, he was turning laps much faster than anyone else.

[gnarkillkicksass]

Sure Hamilton is a good driver but he is the first to admit in 08 he had the best car and strongest team, his performance so far this year says it all. He had a great battle with Webber for a few laps but came off second best to the RB. I think he may become another Jacques Villeneuve.

[kezzaf1]

no Ferrari and Massa had the best car

[gnarkillkicksass]

Well he told all the Mclaren employees in Woking during his speech there after Brazil 08 he owes a lot to them fielding the best car in the field. Straight from his mouth, and I'll take his word on his car I think.

[kezzaf1]

well it did at some parts of thee season (Australia, Canada, GB, Germany, Hungary, Belgium, China, Fuji) but the other 10 events Ferrari had the best car, I'm a Mclaren fan and I can admit in more GP's last year Ferrari were stronger

[fortnightproductions]

The best car is really a matter of opinion for the top performing teams. The cars are very similar and the manufactures like McLaren and Ferrari and even BMW can produce some very potent cars.

[dj7oya]

u can say that ferrari had the best car, but their mistakes killed any chance of massa...

ferrari was and still is comitting fool mistakes.

[biritsuee]

schumi is so good lol

[DrHouse83]

l'unica gara che ha meritato di vincere.... :P

[MrTiti]

he won it ;)

simply

[jorherru]

schumacher is the machine with alonso

[xxxprayerexxx]

do you know what place he came in

[schueyisdabest1]

That vid is sweeet :D :D

[bernhardtsen74]

A legend in the making!

[5CRG]

he already is. He has won 7 F1 championships. He is one of the greatest ever

[burglar2000]

Obviously, he was saying that watching this video is like watching a legend in the making. OberonRacing is correct.

[ghoulunaticzdylan]

your 20 years behind pal :p

[OberonRacing]

Perhaps he meant "this is a legend in the making", I.E. we are viewing a legend in the making.

[need2speed88]

Would have been fun to be the guy or kid who beat him, even though Schumi was clearly fastest ~!

[rottendamned]

Schumacher now this track very good because it was from his father. This is Kerpen, Germany. Schumacher's indoor-track is also in Kerpen about 1 mile from this track.

[nutsonrc]

i like all them carts

[wolfmother4eva]

god karting is exciting to watch! it's even more exciting to do it...

[gutavo12]

CRG is better than tonykart!

[satanhater93]

I personally like topkart.

[cncondron]

What size engines are on those karts 125cc or 250cc?

[veyronzondaf]

Sounds like 125cc

Schumacher went off on the 1st corner and fought back to 2nd. Another lap & he would have won!

[intrepidLFS]

no, they are 100cc direct drive engine3s that rev to around 20,000rpm
