Why does it look uncomfortable to anyone? They are basically in a lazy boy.

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.


Love that video. I show it to people whenever F1 comes up. That and the video comparing speed at Eau Rouge. (IIRC.) Man I'd love to try one of those cars.

F1 races are pretty short around 90 minutes and physical so unless they forget to go before the race I doubt its very common for F1 driver to pee themselves.

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


As opposed to most every other car on earth?
