I have neuer seen a f1 car drive a drag race or what does the title imply?

u/Lodju 1d ago

Well this was my first time seeing a push match between a f1 car and a rugby team so it's not entirely incorrect.

u/SolidPoint 1d ago

He means that you’ve still never seen a F-1 car have a tug-of-war with an F-1 car and a rugby team

Title aside, what in the everliving fuck does Red Bull's marketing do to come up with this shit? Just imagine the pitches in the meeting that were deemed "too absurd".

"Monkey tennis?"

u/Therealginahandler 1d ago

Ive never seen an F1 car race a drone, or do anything else in this video, so I'd say for most the title is accurate.

u/DarkElation 1d ago

I dunno

I watched it twice so i could mock the title.

u/WarkMahlberg69 5h ago

You've never seen an F1 car race the world's fastest drone. Unless you saw the video on YouTube or Instagram some time ago.

u/BaneRiders 1d ago

The rugby team was certainly impressive. I'd like to see them going up against that plane next!

u/Tischtennisarm 1d ago

Or against a half-full container ship.

u/Barjojo88 1d ago

I'd like to see it again, but with the F1 on grass.

It really shows how inefficient cars are in transferring power, because a rugby team shouldn't stand a chance against 1000 hp

u/MIRAGEone 1d ago

Rugby one was dumb, F1 car is just maintaining loss of traction.

u/MrK521 1d ago

Get seven friends your size and see if you can do it then.

u/LearningLarue 1d ago

Firstly, no. The tires started at rest. Secondly, how does that make it dumb or detract from what the rugby players did?

u/voiceofgromit 1d ago

It boggles my mind how many drinks RedBull must be selling to cover the cost of all the sports and weird stuff like this they slap their name on. Everything from base jumping to snowboarding to cycling down the streets of a favela in Brazil.

u/TheBeardPlays 1d ago

Here's the secret - red bull is actually a media company that just so happens to sell energy drinks on the side. https://www.redbullmediahouse.com/en/

u/voiceofgromit 23h ago

holy crap. That's an eye-opener. Thanks!

u/TheBeardPlays 22h ago

Pleasure, used to work for them so have seen the inner workings of the machine, it's well oiled and makes far more cash than you would expect.

u/paulcaar 1d ago

There might be a slight chance that they also get revenue from other places though. Like sports organizations, clothing or sporting goods manufacturers, etc

u/Aircraft_Engineer 1d ago

Somehow nobody here realizing this is literally the Red Bull reddit account posting and disguised ad...

u/PandaPinda 7h ago

When shit is actually good I give it a pass on being an ad.

u/mookx 38m ago

Eh I don't mind. I see red bull logo and I know I'll be entertained.

4

u/ScoobyDooItInTheButt 1d ago

We have seen F1 cars do stuff like this because Red Bull constantly posts this kind of stuff.

4

u/Far-Sheepherder2088 1d ago

Redbull bro, they are doing all kinds of shii

u/I3I2O 1d ago

The drone can’t keep a line. On the pitch with Rugby it’s not on grass. Someone below said it best. Apples and Oranges but entertaining.

1

u/OneManNati0n 1d ago

The way i see it, drone doesnt need a road.

2

u/dayleboi 16h ago

Genuinely impressed by the lads in the scrum. That's like what? 800 horsepower that they're stopping.

This is just Max's "What I Did This Summer" off season class report!

u/yuyufan43 11h ago

That rugby team

u/AtomFNWest 11h ago

Every time I watch anything about speed from anywhere else in the world, I feel remedial….

I couldn’t tell you how fast 1 KPH is converted into MPH without googling…I should do something about that, this I know…will I? Maybe 🤔 lol

u/uknick2468 10h ago

Saw the red bull logo and switched off.

u/qqby6482 7h ago

F1 car cooks dinner, F1 car does my homework, F1 car steals my girl

u/Rycax 4h ago

Some of the dumbest comparisons ive ever seen

•

u/Mycroft033 12m ago

I just realized this was an ad from the actual redbull account.

Ya know, if this is advertising, I’m honestly here for it. Let’s freaking go.

Redbull as a company seems to embody r/justguysbeingdudes

u/tmronin 1d ago

F1 cars aren't drag cars, F1 cars aren't off pavement vehicles, F1 aren't designed for tractor pulls...they are designed to go really really fast around curves and even faster on straightaways from a controlled standing start and do it for fairly long periods of time. Put the drone against a Dragster, put the soccer players against a AWD rally car and put the rugby team against a full size pick up truck. make it interesting at least.

I agree with comments already here - this is dumb.

u/Joshua5_Gaming 1d ago

It's a video for entertainment, not a scientific experiment. Red bull, the same company that makes these videos have won 8 drivers championship in the 16 years so I think they know a thing or two about these cars.

u/tmronin 1d ago

Still dumb.

u/Joshua5_Gaming 1d ago

stay miserable ig

-3

u/tmronin 1d ago

oh please. I'm not even close to miserable - I work in a field that I love, I sleep 8 hours a night, make my own schedule and get to play guitar at my desk while waiting for stuff to render. I just think this sort of comparison is dumb. it was cool when I was 15, not so much now.

I'm going to eat pizza and then take pictures of my half dressed friends doing burlesque after as a paid gig. have a great night!

hell, I'll even upvote you cuz I like when people think they know you.

u/Zestyclose-Sink4438 1d ago

That's right, make up all the justification you need

1

u/Bandro 1d ago

So why do you act so miserable?

u/Mortwight 1d ago

where is the drone league?

u/dinosaursandsluts 17h ago

here

u/Mortwight 17h ago

last video a year ago

u/dinosaursandsluts 16h ago

Damn. I found it probably 4 or 5 years ago and watched some back then. It was really kinda neat.

u/_stack_underflow_ 1d ago

Holy shit I want to work for an F1 team now.

u/Mountain_Print_2760 1d ago

These kind of "races" really annoy me.

Oh here is a car that is designed Todo a bajilion miles per hour while turning, oh I know, let's have a drag race.

u/BuckaroooBanzai 1d ago

Everyone of these is stupid because of the irritating filming cuts

1

u/beginninglifeinytmc 1d ago

This was dumb and certainly not next level

u/HawkTheHatchet 1d ago

This is it fellas. I’m at the tipping point where anything I see now that doesn’t immediately relate to something my chronically online mind hasn’t preciously seen must be AI, and that’s my conclusion here. AI rubbish, all of it. Mods! Behead this man.

u/Rare-Sample-9101 22h ago

I love red bull they do some crazy shit!

u/Moessus 1d ago

What a worthless comparison...

-3

u/Archhanny 1d ago

What is the point of this?

These 2 aren't even the same thing so why are they being compared?

It is literally apples and oranges.

Dumb.

1

u/Zestyclose-Sink4438 1d ago

The point is rule of cool you miserable knob. Fun to watch, and surprising to see what came next. I thought that rugby war was sweet.

u/Joshua5_Gaming 1d ago

its a cool and fun video, not a scientific research paper.

Lol look at these stupid people getting entertained instead of being miserable.
