  • i love racing this track in need for speed, its my fav. idk why

  • I bet 100 bucks and a cookie he will win the Spa GP the upcoming season.

  • I'm trying to complete just one lap in an ok time in GT5 with the F2007. I always seem to go too fast through 1:29 to 1:33 corner though :( But i can't wait to see Kimi back in 2012. Kimi is the KING of Spa!

  • Amazing lap

  • With all those fast turns, its almost like a road course that drives like an oval.

  • @docmike1983 If you miss a turning or braking point youre done there no chance at pole no more, this kind of cornering makes the driving skills come up lot more than at oval where its alot easier to learn the perfect lap, i think oval is more about adjusting your car perfect for you

  • rofl, Kimi wouldn't have hit the wall in 2008 if they had Traction Control.

  • @Marcus666Sund TC wouldn't have helped. His car was pitched sideways so quickly that TC would've been useless.

  • @UltimateWheelman What I mean was, He got no traction on the outer asphalt and spun because of that.

  • I cant wait to see Raikkonen 2012 in spa!!

  • 2012's going to be good. How epic would it be to have Kimi & Seb battling constantly at the sharp end? Uhg. I cannot wait.

  • @danthemanpatrick sadly the best F1 brodcaster wont be there

    

  • He's back!!!

  • "Incredible speed on the way in!" Best part of the lap :) :D

  • i never got the 0:55 - 1:05 part correctly in my f1 2010 game

  • It's Iceman. Who the fuck else?

  • "...and live for another day" WTF? :DDDD

  • @IlaNiira In previous years there was a wall right next the circuit on the exit of La Source, not good if you get forced wide.

  • Schumacher is great 

  • 346 km/h? bulls*it

  • @85fredi The guys doin the Commentary said he was goin upwards to 180/185 MPH which roughly translates to around 330 - 340 km/h. 6 more is neither here nor there tbh. Point is that he is driving really fast on a very challenging course.

  • @DarkDragon9275 180mph is 290kmh and 185kmh is 297kmh

  • @DarkDragon9275 I assume you mean 185 MPH, and thanks for the correction, I didn't take the time to calculate it, was just roughly guestimating. lol. I live in Canada, so we don't use MPH or Imperial Measurements in general. We might use lbs. and ft/lbs, just cause its a little easier :P

  • Lol

  • This is going to be DLC for gran turismo 5! so excited!!!!!

  • martin brundle is hilarious!

  • this video would be great if it didnt have those effing annoying pop ups...

  • high speed corners daaam

  • Those 2008 cars was beautiful, much more pretty than those of 2009 onwards!

  • Love the video! Can't stand Martin Brundle yacking his head off like a six-year old though........

  • if he won´t come back to F1 i´m really gonna miss this guys driving!

  • I think the top speed at Spa is something like 320 km/h before braking into les combes. 340 km/h is possible at Monza.

  • 340 km/h??? man that's impossible xDD

  • looking forward to the race today

  • my buttocks were clenched watching that all the way through, don't know about anyone else!?

  • @Zanmatoffx agreeeeeeeeeeeeeeee,and i hope me to

  • this sunday yet another legendary F1 day in the making! One day i'll go there!

  • 2Bad Santander bought him out from Ferrari just becouse Alonso did not wanted Kimi as a teammate : (

  • @WeLWets wtf??? kimi decided to leave F1 for rallies, that one of santander is the gratest bullshit ever said about F1!!! XD

  • i usually dont like GP-style tracks...street-style like the green hell is my thing..but if there is a crazy ass nice GP track, then thats gotta be Spa

  • just love this track!

  • That is the best job of announcing I have ever heard. 

  • @wilis555 it's called commentating, not announcing and I agree Martin is an awesome commentator

  • Comment removed

  • @F1Raciiing

    why ?

  • HEY! Shut up and focus on the video its GREAT!

  • The only track in the world where if someone told me I could race here but never set wheel on Nurburgring, I'd be completely happy.

  • kimi should drive f1 in the red bull team

  • kimi in red bull???i saw it in a newspaper.BILD.DE....hope to be true...

  • @bigioannis8 I do too. However, the car is built around Vettel and probably wouldnt suit Raikkonen and has been out of the sport for a couple of years. Probably wouldnt struggle as much as Schumi did given Raikkonen did drive in 2009 with simmilar regs to today, but it may take him a season to get back into it; Schumi is still getting better after a year and a half.

  • @MetaKnightsKirby i agree with you man.but i don't think that red bull will give advantage to vettel.kimi is a champion.not like webber who 3 years before was an average driver.also when kimi left,the regulations was almost the same.also kimi drove in slick tyres in comparison with schumi who had different tyres and another car...although i don't think kimi will come back...it would be good for the sport with all these drivers at top level(alonso,kimi,hamilton,vet­tel,schumi)but...i don't think

  • GREAT

  • One of the best with Old Nürburgring and Suzuka!!!

  • @Tookisback maybe you mean the old hockenheim not the old nurburgring...

  • Easy - Medium - Hard - Expert - Chuck Norris - Kimi Raikkonen

  • @sotkapeli chuck norris is getting old. Fuck chuck. I kick his ass any day.

  • @vtnsx you spelled "kiss" wrong ;-)

  • @sotkapeli jajaja chuck norris jejeej xD

  • @sotkapeli - Asian

  • I really want to know how you can't like this video. What's wrong with these 15 people?

  • Kimi Raikkonnen needs to come back to F1 he's a really good drive. He was chosen to replace the great Michael Schumacher for a reason because he can do it. He won the F1 championship with Ferrari but they let him go and kept Massa who is crap. Raikkonen and Alonso would be great partners unlike Massa and Alonso. massa cant keep up with Alonso.

    Kimi is king of Spa. what a track!

  • @dizzywoop Alonso and Raikkonen would not work. Alonso and Massa require a car that tends to understeer. Fine for them, the car does and has since 2007. Raikkonen needs an overersteery car, something Ferrari did not provide him with and probably would not now (who are they to listen to, Alonso who pushes the team as best he can or Raikkonen who says nothing?) Massa works well for Alonso, as he cannot handle having an extremely fast team mate.

  • @dizzywoop massa cant keep up with anything

  • @93AlexanderBg Yes. The man who beat Villeneuve, gave Schumacher a run for his run for his money, gave Raikkonen an extremely hard time and now is more or less on the pace of Alonso despite his crash cannot keep up with anybody. Right.

    In 2010 he struggled throughout the entire season for grip on the universally hard Bridgstones. This year with the Pirellis, he right back up there. Might I add that the 06 Ferrari suited Schumi and not Massa, and that Massa beat him in the 2004 Race of champions

  • Kimi at HIS Spa

  • best circuit just cause eau rouge!!

  • i thought F-1 cars didnt have any help like traction control or any other sort of electronic help

  • @Guitarnoob99 They didn't after 2007

  • F1 drivers don't drive on circuits, they absolutely rape them!

  • "climbing gently uphill!" thist is poetry! the commentator is delightful.

  • It's shame this track is not in Gran Turismo 5 : (

  • @MetalGearSolidFIN Yes. Hope they will bring the course of my country in an update early.

  • The King of Spa - Winner of 2004,2005,2007 and 2009.

  • @yakisiklijojuk123

    In my mind he was the winner in 2008 too, but Hamilton's illegal overtaking maneuvre (which made him end up 3rd with penalty time and Massa inherit the win) meant he tried his very best to retake it, which ended badly indeed on the wet circuit.

    In 2008 Kimi led 37 out of 44 laps in Spa. Hamilton led 3 laps and Massa 4. I know who the real winner of the race was. Kimi.

  • @McLarenMercedes

    Well said sir.

    Raikkonen is one of the best drivers ever I think and I HOPE he really does come back to F1...

  • @yakisiklijojuk123 And almost 2008! :)

  • a driver who can't win in spa, does not deserve to be called world champion!..it's the most demanding track throughout entire F1 calendar along with Monaco and Monza

  • Great call from Brundle.

  • Who's the bloke doing the comments?

  • @fabaum22 Martin Brundle, the current BBC commentator.

  • Best driver in the world, and now he's taking on NASCAR. If he can win there, he's undoubtedly the best ever.

  • Master of SPA!!!!

  • Ferrari were awesome that race.

  • F1 is just not the same without Kimi, ITS NOT THE SAME!! ;(

  • @FreddoX1 You support teams or manufacturers, not drivers.

    Raikonen always said if he won a championship he would retire.

    He won it.

  • The Ferrari F2007 was perfect...

  • Formula 1 just isn't the same without Kimi :(

  • Kimi come back to F1 Please

  • I'm sorry but you greatly overestimated the speeds in those pop-up messages. There isn't a single turn in all of F1 taken at 340 kmh.

  • @MarciareOMarcire hes showing you the top speed not the apex speeds

  • @MarciareOMarcire ofcourse there isnt... hes showing the max speeds at the straights... except for eae rouge

  • too bad hes gone to nascar lol

  • @Jumbomasters "Too bad" you're an idiot.

  • Awesome track for sure. But they really need to race at Nurburgring Nordshleif. I know that will never happen but it would be spectacular to see an F1 car going round there flat out.

  • The King of Spa

  • im so glad TC is gone. such a disgusting sound

  • Norbi.... You only use about 5% more downforce at spa compared to monza and keep in mind the flat out sections at spa are hell of alot longer than the straights at monza ,therefore you reach the same speed if not faster than monza. Do your research of the cars and tracks before you go questioning facts mate.

  • raikkonen the king of spa after schumacher M xD

  • keeping in mind that spa is using more downforce than mozna track

  • 346 km..come onnnnn..:)

  • I think kimi could've won the 2010 belguim grand prix with a hispania car!

    He trully is the king of Spa!

  • 318 was real top speed, 346 is fantasy number:)

  • @Norbi224466 almost 340 is the real topspeed ;)

  • @BabaDerBaer80

    comeee onnnn, i still think official F1 results doesn't lie, 314 km/h is Raikonnen's real top speed in 2007

  • @Norbi224466 come on you just showed that your knowleadge of F1 is really bad and that you cant research well 2010 cars did about 330 there and to correct my last comment 346 was the real topspeed ! 314 is at the middle of the straight after Paul-Frere Curve ;)

  • @BabaDerBaer80

    come on, you want to make me beliave that they get same top speeds on spa like on mozna? reminding that F1 top speed record is around 370km/h on mozna done with v10 engine. From where you can confirm your informations?

  • @Norbi224466 you are totally right! I remember also a 364 KMH from jean alesi in around 1996 or something like that. just remember that the name of the italian town, is MONZA, not mozna.

  • @Fra42below

    lol

  • Kimi Raikkonen = The Legend !!

  • This circuit is insane...The best in the F1 track off all times!!

  • @40blackbrian i wanna back this cars and i wanna back on f1 kimi

  • @40blackbrian this sunday , i will be their at this circuit ;)

  • now this is a driver who should of stayed in f1. Ferrari should of kept him i have so much hate 4 alonso. if kimi returns in 2012 it should be at maclaren lewis hamilton and kimi raikkonen they would be unstoppable!

  • @CUMCLOSERMYDEAR

    he wont. It definitely looks like he is enjoying WRC a lot more and I can't blame him for that

  • Ferrari was not the fastest that year, they won though

  • I dont know much about F1. But where is Kimi now.

  • @bsmashingu24

    He is starting his 2nd year in WRC, and has his own team since this year: ICE 1 Racing. He will be driving the same Citroen DS3 WRC as last year.

  • @grimmie187 last year his car was Citroen C4 WRC...

  • simply amazing!! :-D

  • why dont you go faster kimi?

  • Kimi, my sincere condolences for your Dad:((

    hoping you'll get better soon and get back to car:)

  • Fantastic lap. Go Kimi.

  • I wonder what these machines would do with soft rubber slick tyres...

  • F1 thease days with new rules = BAD

  • he should comeback to f1

  • @distrongker

    he doesnt want to

  • holy ####!!!

  • From 210 miles per hour down to 90 in the scope of a 100 meters or so. That's damned amazing. Excellent driving by Kimi (as usual). Come back to McLaren already! :D

  • 13 bastards,Kimi rules

  • The master of spa

  • How about that? I wonder where is Jeremy Clarkson with his curls now? Even an IDIOT can find out a true talent from FINLAND. He is NOT a drunk!!!

  • @TheBlister4u

    Jeremy Clarkson is the Jerry Springer of the automotive world. Take his advice with a grain of salt and a heavy dose of skepticism. :D

  • What' s there not to like?

  • @crapoglindacernuc This comment of yours.

  • @gasfgiop ??????

  • I watch this video about once a week and everytime I watch it, I'm dumbfounded by something new.

  • this guy who uploaded this video is a joker putting the speed traps in the captions !

  • Kimi, Please come back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • how can this be over 340 km/h when webber in RB simulator for 2010 Spa GP stated top speed is 310 km/h? webber had time of 1:45, kimi of 1:47

  • @Bucoalmighty Straight line speed isn't everything

  • Spa-Francorchamps is better than a rollercoaster!

  • Great lap! But missing the times before traction control. At the time it was between the ears! Ofcource nowdays driver can drive faster, but it is not so amasing to watch.

  • @qettyz WTF.... this was the last year with traction control.... so what are you missing?

  • @AkatsukiRei something like this =) watch?v=1A_dapnwgEc

  • @qettyz Traction control has been banned for years now, pace hasn't gone down much even with the banning of refuelling and all kinds of aerodynamic tricks as well, F1 has always been full of doomsayers but it's still a great spectacle in 2010 although i miss the V10 sound dearly :(

  • @00haze You are right. Every year FIA is making rules that makes cars slower. But biggest lost is those awesome high revving V10 sounds!

  • Kimi=King of Spa

  • Dude no one has ever hit 340 km/h on Spa with the V8 cars... Get your shit right!

  • 2007 cars were good, but because of the TC they sounded horrible

  • just about the top speed... he had around 328-330 kmh at the first long straight, and around 320 on the straight before the finish line... i confirmed these by analyzing the telemetry provided by official live timing...

  • @MultiOKC.......I agree with the Raikkonen - Vettel pairing. It's just a waste not having him in F1. They have some WRC coverage on the Versus - VS - channel. Not sure if you get that channel. OKC not too far from me.

  • Martin Brundle = Anchorgod !

  • I wish Kimi would come back to F1 in a top ride, but I don't blame him if he doesn't want to. I just wish we could watch him in WRC on the television in the USA. F1 needs characters like him though, and it is a shame he was booted for that cry baby. I 'd love to see Kimi take Webbers ride at Red Bull. That would be cool. He and Vettel would be a great pairing.

  • GeNN19192 the "faster old cars" cant run near each other cause they deppend too much of "clear air" for the areodinamic works, so, they cant do much overtakes, what let the races very bornig with pratically nothing happening in all the circuit. And, the 2010 cars are not slower than that one of video. Maybe in top speed, but compare the lap times, in a lot of circuits of year the time of 2010 car is the same, or better! Including Monza! The record is 1 sec. faster than better lap of 2010

  • Italians betrayed Kimi for money!!! Fucking pizzafachists...

  • without Spa the calendar of F1 will be booooriin.The best track ever!

  • Auf dieses Video antworten...  g

  • this circuit is badass!

  • For all due respect, but whereever you have the information from that pretend to display the vehicle speed in the pop-ups, they're definitely wrong. 1st, Eau Rouge at 0:35 : that's rather 280 kph instead of 313. 2nd, Les Combes at 0:45 : better make that 320 kph tops instead of 346. 3rd, Blanchimont at 1:47 : this is just under 300 kph, but by no means the 340 you mention. still sensational enough, I'd say.

  • @TheColinChapman noo, eay rouge is actually done at 313 giv or take a few kilometres, and blanchimont is actually done at 325, give or take a few kilometres

  • @alinasser4 I still tend to contradict. In this year's Grand Prix, Lewis Hamiltons McLaren was the fastest car on the 'Kemmel' straight, with a top speed of 310 kph. This is the fastest section on the circuit. Suggestion: we both check the displayed telemetry data in next year's qualifying and come back to each other then - agreed?

  • @TheColinChapman agreed :)

  • @TheColinChapman noo, eau rouge is actually done at 313 giv or take a few kilometres, and blanchimont is actually done at 325, give or take a few kilometres

  • еееееее чувак ты лучший !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Spa - no.1 circuit

    Räikkönen - no.1 Spa-driver

  • the best thing about this video isn't Kimi's drive, but still the legendary Martin Brundle's commentary. He's a legend and unbeatable commentator. No one like Him. Love Brundle.

  • raikkonen is unreal... but brundle was on special form with the commentry on this lap. What a great commentator. FUCK OFF LEGARD YOU RETARD!!!

  • dude 310kph max

  • perhaps the best track in all of racing

  • KIMI RAIKONEN miss u so much ,go back F1 please.....

  • Eargasm and eyegasm

  • 190 through eau rouge? Fuck that

  • The V10-era was definitely the coolest one through time
