I imagine they take lots of baths.

That’s pretty wild. Seems quite uncomfortable to me.

LeGoat Hamilton ftw.

That's the least of driving one of those cars. Just getting them to move forward is beyond all of our abilities.

Seems uncomfortable AF. Can't imagine sitting like that for hours.

you literally sit in your pee and shite in that position, like it would puddle on your lap

This. I think all pro racing drivers should be considered legit athletes, but after guys that do shite like MotoGP I figure F1 has to be next up for best racing athletes. The physicality combined with the intelligence needed to drive an F1 car is unreal.

Well, except for the fact that you don't piss or shite during a race.

That's why a lot of drivers have a slight limp. The feet are out front in any accident.

Even with neck support it would seem like an awkward position for your neck

Seems like your feet would go to sleep the way they’re elevated like that.

That's why they have motors.

The car is built around the survival cell. It's the strongest part of the car.

Old Top Gear had an episode where Richard Hammond tried to drive an F1 car, really put in perspective how difficult those things are just to get moving, let alone drive at any speed.

The old video of Jeff Gordon driving Juan Pablo Montoyas F1 car on the road course at Indy is great stuff if you’ve never seen it.

Will Power says you do pee at Indy.
He says it's tricky AF.

Lewis Hamilton said in an interview that they are made to fit each driver perfectly and that they are incredibly comfortable and easy to fall asleep in.
