If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

not hating here, i really do like Alonso, but.
This does not seem like a fair race at all. His kart seems to be faster. And, these guys
are his friends, not professional F1 racing car drivers. So that's a double F1 world champion
with a whopping load of experience versus some 'guys' who are either engineers, doctors,
team members or just simply friends.

If this was versus Hamilton, Vettel, Kimi, Montoya, Button, Webber, Ricciardo and Massa i'm fairly
sure wouldn't have had the same result.

It was clear as day these competitors are amateuristical, a lot seem to lack much concept of racing lines,
braking points, driver positioning and throttle-brake combining.

That Alonso video felt totally like videogame gameplay! His car was clearly superior in braking capability, grip and power. Only you can actually tell it wasn't!

Seems to be being the operative phrase. It seems to be faster because Alonso is carrying more speed through the corners than them, and hence not requiring the tiny little kart motor to do as much.

Sure - that's kinda the point of the video isn't it? Look at how much a really good F1 driver will whup even pretty good ammeter go kart drivers.

Excellent display of what happens when you stick a high level driver in a group of what can be considered rookies by his standard.

It´s true, his kart was faster, it was fitted with a certain component that has been racing for well over 20 years.

A guy in the youtube comments nailed it:
Alonso coming to a karting event is like bringing a nuclear warhead to a fist fight.

No, really?

You´ve just discovered the wheel...

And no, his car is not faster, he simply is a higher level driver who brake later, corner faster and accelerate sooner so his kart looks better :roll:

Same as last season with Raikonnen :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :lol:
