FIA Gala Formula 1 2008
its here, 2008 clip is here.

my thoughts :

really good clip, didnt really like how at the beginning they "compared" lewis to senna, but it was good. best part as usual is Brazil. really amazing, nearly wiped a tear off watch it

Nice movie, except the Senna - Hamilton comparison
great season
But where is WRC Gala 2008 video ?
Quote from TypeRacing :But where is WRC Gala 2008 video ?

They changed the name to WRC Gala S2008 and the only decent driver decided it wasn't challenging enough and didn't turn up.

Quote from Töki (HUN) :Nice movie, except the Senna - Hamilton comparison

You have to remember that if you ask Hamilton why he started racing he would only talk about one person, Senna, that is his idol and that is the reason they make comparisons. As I posted in the comments on that video, you shouldn't forget that there are people who think comparing Senna to Fangio is crazy, and yet the Senna fans will continue to argue that he was the greatest F1 driver of all time and not Fangio.
I didn't even see it as a comparison. Everyone knows Hamilton idolises Senna, therefore it's not surprising that they should show Senna in a film about Hamilton, and his quote at the beginning is the perfect excuse to. It's more about the things Senna says anyway, which are pertinent to all F1 drivers obviously.
It's not: Senna did this, now Hamilton's done this, aren't they similar?, oh and they wear the same helmet colours too. That's an over-simplistic way to look at this video imo.

nice! thanks
Woah what an awesome video. It gave me goosebumps (if thats how you write it) :P

I don't know how Senna would react if he had been alive seeing him being compared to Hamilton though. I'm not sure he'd like it that he is being seen as a has-been and that there is someone matching his talent now. Hamilton is great, but different from Senna.

I like the music, but the 2007 one has better music imo.
Re the WRC vid... why is it solely based on Loeb? Yes he's statistically the best driver to enter WRC, but they don't even say when Jari-Matti won that round, or when anyone else wins infact...
LOL @ the first one being taken down by F1 management

Quote from JJ72 :rather uneventful, guess they don't have much interesting track side action etc to add to the clip.

Karting can look a lot worse on TV that's for sure. The World Champs is over one race thus footage is far more limited to the 15-20 rounds of the F1/WRC.

I liked the song choice, but would've preferred the original and full version Not sure how that would have sat in the Gala hall though
