These don’t seem as popular/common as other sports, but this one popped up the other day - some of them are pretty good!

There used to be another guy who did a cracking impersonation of Kimi too.

Wow! Honestly, what are we d... er, I mean, I was ready for a bit of cringe, but the guy is really good.

Vettel did that great Kimi impression back in the 2010 (IIRC) FIA gala.

Couldn't quite see Christian Horner in that impression but otherwise very good.

Horner's voice isn't spot-on but his diction and mannerisms are  :D

Who's the first guy?

Also really you should start and finish with big hitters, whereas he's done the exact opposite.

Otherwise, very good!

First guy is Will Buxton.

Thanks. I'd just looked into it and worked it out. I suppose him and Steiner are big with Drive to Survive viewers (which I've never seen).

Will was brilliant years ago with Paddock Pass, but went all weird since DTS.

He's been a pit reporter & presenter for F1 for some years, and before that he was the lead commentator on world feed for GP2. Hardly an obscure character to be fair...

Enjoyed these impressions a lot :lol:

Nicolas Latifi does a fair impersonation of an F1 driver.

That guy is very clever. His George Russell impression is really spot on!

IMHO, best of all time is Peter Ustinov doing the entirety of a race. :drunk:

 

- a Marecan announcer

- commentators

- drivers

- cars

 

It’s linked around here somewhere… :stoned:

 

Found it! :)

Yes. :up:

 

But merely one of the latest in a loooooooooong list. :cool:

 

There have also been quite a few who have done very poor ones - e.g. Mazepin. :smoking:

I've posted this one a few times over the years. It's pretty much every driver of a dominant car.

I recommend the lollipopman F1 comics on youtube.

 

He mimics the voices pretty good too.

 

Just two examples:

I havent even smiled once when watching any of the Conor Moore films. Is there anyone who thinks the same? Or am I the only one missing the actual humor in this?

Same, his voice is incredible but he desperately needs a writer. His stuff simoly isn't funny at all.

Some sketches are stronger than others but I generally find him pretty funny.

The late great Rik Mayall in his "Our Nige" impression for the Nigel Mansell's World Championship game TV advert in 93.

Alright, grumpy!  :D

 

I'll admit he's not exactly a comedy genius, but his voices are excellent. The Russell impression is pretty funny! Max/Sainz voices are spot on.
