The best of F1 2021 season (thus far)
Ten races plus testing and a lot of travel has seen me witness quite a bit this year and in this video I’ll recap some of the highlights from the first half of the 2021 F1 season.
What the F1 drivers drove to the Hungaroring
Ferraris, Mercedes, Renaults, a Ford along with a couple of motorbikes among others were all used to convey the world's best race car drivers to the Hungaroring track just outside of Budapest for round 11 of the 2021 season.

Half way through season 2021 and McLaren driver Lando Norris is looking in fine form. But how well do you know the driver? After watching this video you'll know him a whole lot better.
The wild and crazy Hungarian F1 GP
A first corner crash, a surprise winner, Charles Leclerc locked out of the paddock, Lewis' outfits over the 4 days, Seb surprising a couple who'd just agreed to get married and so much more in this video.

It’s not just the images, it’s the way he phrases the captions. It’s his personal style as opposed to a team of content generators that don’t necessarily engage at that level with audiences.
