Jesus christ, i know very little abt F1 and driving in general and this made me go “holy goddamn shit,” given how absurdly quick F1 is and how great his reaction time and decision making needs to be to pull this off.
Unless someone knowledgeable and experienced in this shit can tell me otherwise hahah.
This is the definitive video of “look where you want to go and the car will follow”. Of course it’s much more complicated than just that, but you can see Leclerc immediately look up-track as soon as his back-end comes out and keep looking that direction until the car snaps back. His pedal control is obviously top-notch because F1, but this should be shown in almost every driving-ed class on how to control a spin/slide properly.
I would imagine the car has some aerodynamic properties that also assist with self righting, a more elegant non moving version of the little flaps that come up on stock cars.
Edit: Not sure what the downvotes are about of someone who does it would like to enlighten me please do. I think you’re misinterpreting what I am saying.
I was standing with Wally Dallenbach Sr. at Laguna Seca watching Formula Atlantic practice when Steve Shelton spun out, was traveling backwards, hit the accelerator to correct it and drove off. I was all excited and blurted out “man that was some great driving.” Like the old bull, Wally looks over the top of his glasses and says “it wasn’t very good right before that!”
I mean if you’re going to lose it on a corner *that* is a hell of a way to make it right.
Is this the birth of F1 Gymkhana?
So good it looks fake
This literally looks like a scene from Tenet

Can anyone explain what he is doing here to fix that to someone who knows nothing about racing mechanics? All I notice is the brake lights go on.
Looks like that reverse feature in Forza. ” Let me just undo this mistake real quick! “
This is how I drive when I’m dreaming
Powersliding in Rocket League be like
Per the comments about him going in reverse, did he or did the car’s computer pull that? I don’t doubt his reflexes, but …

How is he doing this? Or can someone explain the physics/mechanics?

Magnussen’s save to not beach his car was way better imo. Just not as visually stunning.
Looks like he’s got packet loss
From the title I expected he saved his ferrari before it fell off a cliff. I think the better title is saves his position in a race.
How much money did he just save my not flipping that?
What were you all worried about?
Wow watching his fronts lock up in that rhythm is mesmerizing. I cannot comprehend.

Is there a penalty for this in racing?
That’s one hell of a clean drift.

Hope they had a spare transmission on hand.
