Chris, just because you spun under throttle with cold tires and an engine with a high revving sharp power curve does NOT mean you needed to brake 17 years early everywhere and roll through the corners like a 1000 year old woman. If you know you aren't capable of warming tires with the gas peddle you need to do it somewhere plus the brakes needed warmth too. I remember my experience in a VERY similar car, downforce, brake, and tire situation vividly and yes easier said than done. If you get another chance please compartmentalize mentally a bit better so you can actually have the privilege of fully enjoying one of your dreams come true in a real way next time. I know you're a 98 percentile driver or better so I've got to believe this was caused by nervousness, cold track, and or embarrassment over your first spin and you didn't manage to straighten yourself out mentally in time. Anyway, I do enjoy your car reviews and encourage you to keep up the good work and continue kicking ass.

It's amazing now to hear about Force India and Sutil being at the back of the field when they're regularly in the top ten at this stage of the 2013 season.
Anyone who has ever spent any time in a single-seater on a race-track will completely get what Chris is experiencing, even if you didn't have 700+ HP to play with. These 3 videos were superb.

Take a bow Mr Harris. That, even for a driver of your pedigree, was a bloody impressive performance. Anyone unimpressed watch Richard Hammond make a total 'see you next tuesday' of himself trying to drive an F1 Renault around a comparatively baby track to see how hard it really is. Respect to you squire, that was a classy performance:

brundle is right about the rain. i did a silverstone single seater day in the pissing rain, and i shit you not only at 150 mph behind another car i could not see a SINGLE thing. i had to drive completely off the racing line just to see where the track was going. how on earth f1 drives do it is beyond me

You will never be the same Chris. The La Ferrari is an incredible car, but pales in comparison. I enjoy watching your videos, because you know how to drive, and I enjoy your commentary. Good for you that you got to drive an F1 car. Something that is on my bucket list for sure.

That really was awesome. Confirms that F1 cars are just otherworldly. Forgot the supercars, the Veyron, the 918, the P1 etc. These cars are seat of the pants through the looking glass stuff. And Martin Brundle is awesome and such a nice bloke that way he complimented Chris.

Just like what Matin said -He did a good job -There is no doubt about it. Now common drivers should realize one thing, those professional F1 drivers are all Talented. Very nice Videos. Thank You Chris.

Brundle's the man. An gentleman who's brushed elbows with Senna, Prost, Schumacher, and always there or thereabouts with them. Doesn't need to roast others to get attention. He speaks, you shut up.

If Martin Brundle said you did really well, that's high praise. Martin raced with Senna in the 70's and 80's. Chris did a lot better than Richard Hammond did in a F1 car. Thanks.

Just did the math and if my one-and-a-half ton car was to have a similar power to weight ratio as the car Harris and Brundle drove, it would need 2, 225 HP.
