On the WRC channel, every time they drive smooth on tarmac, they talk about their renowned F1 skills.

I swear once in a while there’s the phrase ‘renowned rally driving skills’ in a FP highlight

She CANNOT resist saying “the Monegasque” every time Leclerc is in the highlights.

Driver: Goes slightly sideways but catches the car. Announcer: RALLY DRIVING SKILLS

"Charles are you ok?" " I'm so *** *****" "He's ok."

Those high-speed blind spots are going to be the highlight of this race.

The track is as exciting as it is dangerous. Never inagined such a fast track narrowed between walls and blind corners. It can be a double edged sword and I hope we will never have to regret the day F1 chose to race here.

Remember the times when it was just Bottas and his rally-driving skills? Now it's Sainz and the rally-driving skills that he inherited from his father. What an exciting season.

If those lap times hold up for the race, the mid field battles are going to be nuts. This of course is dependent on how many get through the first lap.

If there is a crash at the front in the race, the whole pack is going to drive in them virtually without breaking.

Such tracks deserve aerial views of the entire race

i'm not a fanboy but max finding every millimeter shows how hungry he is for the title. and lewis has already shown his masterclass n number of times, brazil being the latest example. the title battle is so close, we're witnessing history here. to the haters, instead of commenting cringey things like 'crashtappen' and 'it's only the car', show some gratitude.

Mazepin blessing the track with his signature spin

I'm actually a bit afraid, which is unusual. Just seeing them passing slower cars with little to no space. Oh boy...

This is easily in the top 3 most exiting tracks this year. Practice has been more exiting than some races.

I'm impressed by Yuki, I hope he keeps that pace 'till the race day

Driver: *Goes a little sideways. F1: "Using his renowned rally driving skills!!!"

Thank you F1 channel for giving us non stop racing content this season, this channel has been awesome

This is the best fp highlights video i've so far seen on this channel

The turns are so fast that F1 are essentially swerving back and forth at 220kph. Sounds like a recipe for under/oversteer

Midfield is on fire! Gasley will probably get "this is James" version call to let sister RB move... MRC seem dominant but one can't rule out the impressive race start of Max..

2:53 Hamilton's skidplate was literally glowing red

Mazepin: -"It's a hundred and six miles to Chicago, times hundred, I've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and I'm wearing a tinted visor." His engineer: -"Hit it."

The shot with car passing by the traffic with full speed, just brings chills up the spine. One person just deviating from the racing lime means trouble here.

Just hoping to not see anything close to Grosjean’s Bahrain crash. Stay safe.

I'm here for Gasly's second podium finish with the B-team. With the track looking so narrow, if he can do this well in qualis...

This track looks amazing. Cant wait for it in next year's game

This new track is really testing the drivers experience to adapt . Going to be an interesting race

Those barriers are fantastic! For a car to hit something at such a speed and Charles to just hop out is amazing!

I just hope we don’t lose anyone this weekend

Love the constant updates

2:05 Well that sure looks like fun! Must be a heck of an adrenaline rush holding your line 6” to 12” off of a concrete wall at 200+ kmh.

Yuki rode like a veteran literally. What a lap. A rookie P8 on a hard tire on such a difficult track and that was 1st part of the FP2. If anyone tells me this guy doesn't have a huge ability to be great driver, he's completely blind. The only thing that is not there are kilometers and experience (also luck last time). He literally came to Europe in 2019 with 30 F4 races in Japan and 45 kilos of weight, without English. Look what he is doing, how he is improving in terms of speed. He will shine next year, I keep my fingers crossed. Such a great, charismatic guy

I said it when I first saw the layout of this track and I will say it again. F1 has great safety standards. But we all know that things can go wrong, they could on every track. But this is just massively increasing the chances of big accidents. Thankfully Charles was okay, but it won't be the last one. Just imagine coming down there with 300+ kph and someone had a crash before you. I just don't want another accident like from Antoine Hubert where someone gets T-Boned again...

Its almost been a year and yet every time I hear "Schumacher" I get chills. Hope to hear it a bit higher up next year and that he carves out his own successes in the years to come 😊

The one spot Nico said that scared him. All speed and then all wall. I do hope these guys stay safe, and out of the wall. Best of luck this weekend to everyone.

Thankfully Charles is fine. That hit was scary.

This circuit is like Monaco, one little mistake and you're in the wall... but with much higher speed 😬

Track is deadly Imagine bouncing of the barrier then being collected side on at 170mph

Schumacher almost 1 second ahead of Mazepin in the SAME equipment. Says quite a lot)))))

"Renowned-rally-skills"-by-association all over the place

'Renowned rally driving skills'

Welcome to Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦

It all looks so clean

As a Haas fan, this circuit is our nightmare.

The track looks really really dangerous, but also so fun with these high speed corners

It's been a great race in F1 history! I'm looking forward to the final race!

Gonna say it: this is a great track. I look forward to seeing racing on it.

Ngl, kinda scared for this weekend GP, haven't felt like this in a while. I love Singapore and was excited for this at first, but the circuit just seems too tight and with the blind corners, there'll be no time to react if someone spins in front and bounces back onto the track. Hoping that they all come away from this okay

No run-off + blind corners... I'm most worried abut a car crashing out, becoming stationary on track, then getting collected by another car at full speed. Paying that all goes well.

2:04 This has to be the most beautiful corner I have ever seen being driven.

No one: Not a single soul: A car goes slightly sideways in practise: ReNoWnEd RaLlY SkIlLs

Exciting! So looking forward to the rest of the weekend. Understand the apprehensions, however, these are the ultimate professional drivers who will exhibit their skills at driving fast and staying safe. There are dangers on every task, this one is no different. Let's just pray and hope nothing untoward happens and we have a grand racing weekend as we do every race week.

History will be made this race !

Frank you very much for helping to make F1 what it is today

Polished glossy finishes are so gorgeous under the lights.

Man Gasly is really becoming a top contender as the season is coming to end.

loving Gaslys consistency

what a perfect music for this resume!!

Aside all the things related to the danger of the track and its overtaking possibilities, it does have some marvelous and satisfying high speed corner combinations (a bit like Mugello has as well); I love it

Mercedes is too far ahead. When Bottas on mediums can get one over on Verstappen on softs... it's pretty obvious what were in for this weekend. Hamilton will take pole. He won't pull away much on Sunday, but he'll have a tyre surplus.

The entire track being lined by barriers on both sides reminds me of the Valencia track F1 went to for like...4 years then abandoned

Literally anybody slides: F1 Commentator: *He was showing off his rally skills*

Love Mick's driving style. He is going be quick when he gets a competitive car.

I'm nervous for this one. The safety car might need a second set of tires before the checkered is waved.

Glasly showing up!!! Would love to see him on podium

This track is just one big chicane, i love this

Real concerns over safety here, if there's an accident at the front the rest if the field could hit them at full speed

Really impressive from Gasly being better than Verstappen on the same tyres!

Track looks great, nice to see something a bit different for a change

It'll be a miracle of no one gets hurt this weekend. Almost every corner looks like Imola's Tamburello without runoff, which says a lot to me...

What a tight circuit with super sharp corners it’s gonna be a interesting circuit no mistakes allow

Charles doesn't like street circuits.

this track is dangerous. I don't know why we are racing here

Those racing 🏁 🏎 looks so freaking cool on that track with the night 🌙 lights

Less than a second between the top 12 is crazy

Red Bull: "That's it boys, time to pack up and go home, it was fun while it lasted."

0:53 Mazespin putting in the work!

Amazing under the lights ❤🏁👌👍

Its the learning curve at this track for all the drivers as its a first time anyone has raced here !! Mistakes and accidents are bound to happen because of that.

This race is gonna be epic! Or horrifying... idk looks like it will be a close race, but I don't think they're gonna make it 50 laps

Its gonna be one heck of a race on Sunday

I don't know what it is but the camera view of Raikkonen at 1:12 is just so vivid. It feels fast and the way kimi is shifted under breaking just adds so much force to it. I love it.

Nice to see the track that narrow. Thats why is looks so fast onboard

Everyone though this track would be really boring but it looks like it might make for a very exciting race on Sunday.

Note to the editors: less is more when it comes to the sound track volume.

That Castrol Alpine livery is simply beautiful!

Crazy having a new track at this time of the season....But fun

This track is incredibly unsafe and the FIA should be ashamed for letting them race there.

This is going to be a dangerous race on Sunday. One little mistake on one of the fastest tracks in the world and you’re going into a concrete wall. Not to mention if there’s a blow out or someone gets spun around in one of the many the high speed blind corners theres going to be a big problem. I’m a little nervous for this race.

I am from jeddah , I like it so much ❤❤❤

Leclerc's onboard camera doesn't do his crash justice. It looked monumental from the other angle imo.

I feel so sorry for Charles, he's been so unlucky and I can't even begin to imagine the pressure he is under. He deserves a win!

I can’t get over how cool the cars look on the new track, the track is new, so the fresh look is 👌

That Alpines will be a force next season

This is gonna be an exciting race can’t wait👍.Fingers crossed no major accidents to anyone.

The walls are dangerously close for a track this fast. Surely there will be some crashes which may be fun for the championship fight

So it's because of Charles that my crypto is going down 😅

Mazespin whips out his signature move ♻️

Aggressive fast-vibes on the sections🚀🤩, this looks very promising for a great speed battle in the race the championship will be on fire♨️ but i guess lewis will catch it after all 😎😁🤩
