the Nico v Lewis rivalry continues.

Portimao is just : " you never see the track"

The way he describes how the track disappears and all you see is sky and front wheels is incredible! Love this dude!

gets pole position 6 months ago, doesn't even remember the turns in the track. what a legend.

Finally Lewis doing a video, we see him very rarely here. Good Luck to him and Mercedes AMG F1 PETRONAS.

Lewis is that student who never look like studying as hard as other but get AA all the time. Guy doesn't even do track walks or sim work. What a legend

Lewis' analysis is based on his talent and skill. It all comes to him where, when and how to drive and position a car around a race track, not just this one, that's why he doesn't remember exactly what corner is where, which I'm sure he knows all that....but his talent takes over.

This video ended Nico and Romain's youtube careers.

Holy hell do this stuff more. Lewis is surprisingly good at this. Like he totally conveyed how hard it is to position yourself in a track like Portimao. Big respect for that lap as well!

Having a Pole lap analysed by the Greatest Driver Of All Time with the most poles in F1 history 😭😭 it doesn’t get better than this 🥶🥶🥶

Enthusiasm is still 100% there as if he was still a rookie.

Lewis qualifies first out of all F1 drivers and then says "I gotta work a bit harder to improve." That's why he's so good

Lewis was so quick, he doesn't even remember it. Thanks to the team for slowing it down a few frames!

Nico: This is how you get the fastest lap using the sim Lewis: This is me doing the actual fastest lap on the track with a real F1 car

I remember Hamilton's track guides from 2007 and 2008 while he was with Mclaren-Mercedes. Always was willing to pause the video to give information that was extra to just what his body felt in the car (eg. what is he seeing? what is he thinking?). I thoroughly enjoy the information he shares with his onboards.

you are the one lewis, thanks that you on earth, my mother and me watch every race with you with heartbeating, your such a good person and great racer, thanks for everything, best wishes from my heart, rene, today you had drove soo good. best wishes for portugal, i believ in you we believ in you ! )

this track looks insane, even from my safe position in my couch! love the racing at Portimão, but it must be terrifying to be driving!

That 1st corner is really terrifying,.,, I LOVE IT

The *MAN,* the *MYTH,* the *_LEGEND_* Sir Lewis Hamilton describing his pole laps- _please_ make this a full series! :D (You don't know _how long_ I've been waiting for this!)

“That gap should be bigger” Wow so he could have gone even quicker 🤯 GOAT

1:21 "Bono, the road is gone." (Lewis, 2021)

How great to get this perspective from a 7 time world champ

The man said he got to work harder. 💪🏽 Got pole on this lap and he still going strong Legendary.

This track is crazy, one can barely see the corners when driving it... I love it.

Always a pleasure..thank you Champ #44💪

Thanks for this Lewis this helps us viewing from home understand the challenges you face in different trucks.

Please do this for every race, this insight is awesome

Man, the way this car could turn on Turn 1 is just incredible to watch.

I miss you, W11!

Wow, it's so cool seeing Lewis on here! Please bring him in more often!

This guy is so talented and cerebral in his approach. The wins and championships make sense now.

If you pay attention Lewis is already talking about corners and thinking about sections of the track that his car hasn’t arrived at yet. This is the sign of a very good driver who looks and plans ahead and a good lesson for young drivers on how to go fast.

I love it how he's not considering if he's going to get pole or not but simply how much he's going to get pole by. Unreal! The GOAT.

Great to see a track guide from the greatest qualifier of all time!

This is a really tricky track with blind spots and it's so good to hear from Lewis himself. The qualifying and Sunday race with traffic and these conditions I am really looking forward to it. Good Luck Team , may the best driver win. 🥂👍🏼 Please do share insights for upcoming races like these it helps get upto speed.

Excellent tyre management of the yellow wall medium compound, exceptionally smooth through Lagos throughout the first, awesome through the second sector particularly through Portimao & Sagres, brilliant amount of traction generated through the Galp corner onto the straight!🙌

One of the best tracks in the calendar 👌👌

Notice how Nico gets right down to objective details and the exact braking points, biases, apex positions, changes in downforce etc. While Lewis is talking more towards the experience of driving, how he feels during the turns and so on. Supports that old story of Nico being the more analytical driver, while Lewis is more instinctive.

I can't imagine going flat out and having the road disappearing in front of you. Pretty scary! A lot of what-if's that could lay just ahead when the pavement reappears in front of you at full speed afterwards. I guess one needs to have a good memory and a lot of courage to succeed in Portimão. You can do it, Lewis!!! 💪🏎🏁#1

Let's go Sir Lewis and Mercedes AMG F1!!!

Sir Lewis STILL has the will to go faster !! if he continues to have that F1 buzz this season, I'll think he'll be back next year...Still He Rises :-)

This is really cool Guide!! Thanks to Lewis and the entire Mercedes team.

Mercedes' confidence is unbeatable. They did Q3 on mediums

Good Luck for Mercedes F1 Team in Portuguese Grand Prix.

This is of REAL value! Thank you.

That's dope having the king do the break down. Good drive to everyone this weekend.

Lewis, all the best for the oncoming weekend and the whole season.

Very humble. The ending explains why he is the champion of F1.

i love this, you should put out more of these. I'm going to have it play on a loop now.

I like how Lewis explains. Clearly he still have a lot of passion for his work.

*Insert funny joke about Lewis being like a professor in school and the other pilots taking notes here

I'm in love with this track. It's just beautiful. Lewis managed to describe it so well!

Love this guide and full experience. Good luck for Sunday😉

We need more of this!!!

Lewis, you are the best.

He used to love doing this when he was banging out pole position with Mclaren during his rookie season.

This track is like "I Believe I can Fly" Woooohoooo

Good luck this weekend team!

Thats the greatest of all time right here

This guy is awesome🙌🏻

Great vid guys been wanting this for a long time but its finally happened :)

Great job! Huge fan! Smart giving just enough information without revealing too much!

Good luck tomorrow Lewis! I gotta get some of that gear this year.

Rack up so many poles, you don't remember them. Legend.

Most amazing circuit ever made, fantastic flow! Really is an exciting track, the elevation changes are quite incredible!

Amazing video more of this please!!

Good luck Lewis! Now i understand the track. Good luck team!

I am enjoying it. All the best to you this weekend !

Great details, I didn’t realized that they can’t see the road in those hills

Total legend We re lucky to see him race

I loved this. Please let's have more of these guides from LH and VB in the future.

listening to james allison 🤝me🤝listening to lewis

Love that kind of videos

All of a sudden a goat appears in Petronas YT page..

Give us more Lewis content!! ☺️

Man, it's so clear Lewis has a crazy aptitide for keeping all these details in check. Not hardly remembering exactly which corner, but still sounds like he could be spending 3 hours or more fully detailing the crazy fine detail i suspect he has locked in that immensely talented brain. Hell, saw a short clip on youtibe some time ago where he was talking about spotting a brake distance by some ture rubber on a curb. Could barely see a faint mark when the curbing was shown. Bahrain a few seasons ago, 2018 i think, he said at the end of the race he passed Vettel due to the wind changing direction. Which he noticed becuase of the flags at the track changing direction. So he figured the headwind would make the Merc stick. It sure did, Charles Leclerc had a bummer of a engine issue allowing lewis to catch and pass but damn, charles was quantum locked for grip and atomic energy powered that race. The capacity for detail and intense physical effort throughout a race weekend will never cease to amaze me.

Lewis... you’re actually really really good at this ...the grins on your face 👍🏻😂

I hope it goes well for you tomorrow lewis and team!

Portimão seems to be interesting and a driver's track where skill and balls (or guts for females) separate pros from rookies :-D good elevation changes, and F1 needs more tracks like these (Spa, Mosport, Turkey, Glen end Zolder and Imola)

Good luck for quali and race, boys!!

I've been subscribed to this channel for 1 year now and been a fan since 2014

You can tell how experienced he is. He has been in F1 for so long with taking a break. He knows these cars and these tracks better than anyone.

Great to see the champ give us a walk thru!

Amazing video🥰 Let's go team for the win💪

Pls do all upcoming tracks with Lewis.

You master Lewis!! Get going bro!

Oh.my. god I love this commentry thanks Lewis. Man can't see road so accelerate to the sky!

Would love to hear more of these from Lewis.

This very interesting what Lewis says about your look up into the sky on track in the Portugal Grand prix and Paul from sky Sport F1 talking about that turn on the on track.

LM should do more of these

Seeing how their car handle this year compared to last year makes the w11 probably the best f1 car ever made to this day.

Lewis Hamilton,I'm from suriname and for us suriname people your a super hero,thank you man and we got your back brother,go for pole nr 100😃

Video honestly looks like it's in fast forward, so insane you control a car going that fast on a track like that. Looks like so much fun though.

When I clicked this link, I had to genuinely ask myself whether this was analyzing last year's lap or whether this video was uploaded a day early.

Congratulations on winning the 2021 Portimao Grand Prix Sir Lewis!!

More of these pleaasseeeee

Thank you champ

Lewis Hamilton the goat of F1!!

Legend GOAT

Man, that sounds really hard! Maybe this is where visualization comes in. On the portions of the track where you cannot see where you are going you have to imagine how it happens.
