The true speed of F1 - Jeddah Corniche Circuit (2025)

Описание: Its easy to forget just how fast Formula 1 cars actually are, until you stand trackside somewhere like the Jeddah Corniche Circuit. These 2025 cars take these corners at 250+ KPH (160+ MPH) nearly reaching cornering speeds of 300 KPH (185 MPH!) during qualifying this year. It's hard to believe until you see the cars fly through the first sector, like in this video. The insane cornering speed of these cars blows me away every time, and there is no better circuit to showcase it. All this footage was captured at the fastest corners of the circuit I could access, during qualifying, the 3 free practice sessions, and the actual race itself.

I was nervous to return to the Jeddah Corniche Circuit for my 6th time and 4th Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, as last year I had paddock access for FP1 and FP2 on Thursday, giving me access to the inner track where a lot of the cool spots to spectate from and see the raw speed of these cars are situated. This year I was not lucky enough to receive such a pass, so had to try my best to top my footage from a year ago with only grandstand access. I did manage to somehow reach the inner track for FP2 where I was able to film at a few spots you see in this video, but the rest of the vantage points are all accessible with a general admission or a grandstand ticket.

The security was far more strict this year than I have ever seen before, not even letting spectators stand near the fences during any of the F1 sessions (I had one security guard threaten to call the police on me because I was stood next to the fence) , so I apologise for the slight drop in quality because of that. A lot of angles have a couple more fences in the way compared to last year as I couldn't get close enough.

I also apologise for heads getting in the way/people walking in front of the camera, people were constantly going up to the catch fence (like you would at any other racetrack, but apparently thats not allowed in Jeddah now), so the security were constantly chasing after people and telling them off/making them move. If you hear any obvious, distracting background chatter that will also be the security guards, either telling me or somebody else off. Again my apologies.

I hope you enjoy the footage, regardless of some of the strange, and very anti-fan decisions made by the GP organisers this year.

This specific video was made really to just showcase the raw speed of the cars, I will make some more videos with the large amount of footage not seen in this video, like trackside highlights and maybe some car/team specific videos soon.
