Four-time F1 world champion Max Versstappen is about to race these 100 amateur drivers. Behind me are some of the world's best athletes and biggest creators. Max will start at the back of the pack and he'll have just 30 laps to pass all 100 drivers. Oh, I'm coming for you. They need to focus because I'm definitely catching them. Now, this track is unique in that it's the longest cart track in the world at over 2.5 km. Each driver is going to get a single qualifying lap before taking on an F1 world champion. All right, here we go. Green flags waving and they're off. First up is Zack Als. Now, Zach is a former motocross racer, so we're expecting him to be pretty quick around this track.
The faster these drivers qualify, the further they start in front of Max, the better chance they have at beating him. Zach's about to come across the line. There's his time right there. Woo! A 227. There we go. Yeah, I'm pretty happy with that one lap dash. This qualifying sets the grid with the slowest drivers starting at the back and the fastest at the front. This means that as Max progresses through the field, the competition should become progressively faster and harder to pass. Once all the drivers set their qualifying time, Max will then have 10 minutes on track to set his fastest lap.
No pressure. We have a huge variety of drivers out there setting their qualifying times right now. We got some drifters in here. We got some Red Bull athletes. Definitely not good, but watch out. The race is a whole new level. There are also some massive streamers and content creators all out there trying to set their best qualifying lap. We got some fast drivers in this group. The biggest challenge of this race for our drivers will be turn one. This is where most of the chaos will happen as all 100 carts funnel in to take that first corner. Oh, we got Lethal Shooter coming in.
Someone needs to tell that guy the gas is on the right. I have a feeling that if you want to beat Max, you're going to have to be putting in sub 230 laps. And Lethal Shooters coming across the line here. 2 minutes 52 seconds. They struggled a little and the qualifying times are in. We have our grid for the final race against Max. Now, let's go down and see Max and see what he thinks of these qualifying times. What's up, man? How you doing? Good. Good to see you. So far, the fastest time is a 226.38. But then I think something that's important is that the slowest person is about 30 seconds back from them. So, I mean, big difference.
Yeah, it's a big difference. That's good. That's good for me. Yeah. So, you got a hundred uh of your best friends trying to pass you. They're kind of going to work as a team. So, what's your strategy uh in 30 laps to get to the front? Well, I think the most critical is actually the first two laps where you probably clear quite a few. Yeah, at least I'll try. But that's also where you can lose the most time, right, to the very quick guys up front. So, they're strategizing right now on how they can beat you. They're saying they're not going to battle, but we'll see.
But, I mean, I need them to battle. Yeah, you need them to slow up. When the drivers at the front of the race battle between themselves, they slow each other down. This allows Max to make up time and catch them easier. You feel good, though? You think you got a shot at this? I first want to get like at least two laps in myself. Maybe that would be nice. And then and just go from there. You got 10 minutes to lay down some fast laps or at least get the track uh familiarized. All right, best of luck. Thank you. Now that all of our drivers set their qualifying times, Max is about to go out and lay some laps down on this
circuit. Let's see what a fourtime Formula 1 champion can do. All righty. Now, Max is no stranger to being in a cart. At the age of 15, he had over 20 titles and hundreds of race wins. So, even though he's never driven on this track before, he's going to be able to figure it out and figure it out fast. Now, Max has a little lock up there, getting a feel for the cart as he makes his left-hander go back towards the Silverstone Circuit on another long straightaway. Now, this section is super tight and super technical. This is a bottleneck area and could potentially hold Max up if people crash on this part of the track.
Getting back onto the actual carting track itself. All right, good. And here we have the S's running completely off the track onto the rumble strips trying to make as many straight lines as he possibly can and save as much time as he possibly can. I'm here with Zach Alop. He's the fourth fastest guy out of these hundred drivers to compete against Max. The man himself is uh getting familiar with the track. Yeah. What do you want to do at the end of this? Huh? Do you want to win or do you just want to beat Max? I'm coming for a seat in Red Bull. I think that's the ultimate goal.
I'm slightly terrified, but he was avoiding eye contact with me when he pulled out the pit. So, I'm reading into that, Oh, no. Yeah. 22369. Oh, no. Yeah. his first flying lap. He's 3 seconds faster than the fastest guy, which is 5 seconds faster than you. So, four, let's not be too mean about it. Four. Oh, I am just praying that people spank into him. He's an algorithm, right, of a man. Now, Max is in the exact same cart as all the other drivers here, so he doesn't have any sort of advantage. They also have to weigh a minimum of 85 kilos, which he weighed in on, and they add ballast if he doesn't meet up to
that weight. So, we are on a level playing field. This is all about talent and skill. His first opening few laps are going to be slow as well. Yeah, he's got a battle. That is our chance to get forward. For the final race to help level the playing field, we've introduced a fast lap. This is a shortcut that cuts out a big section of the track, but can only be used once by each driver. Here's Max coming around the final corner. Can he beat his first lap time? Okay, that was great. Max, you got to go back a bit. 100 places.
All right, so Max has done all of two laps in that time. He's bested the fastest driver out here by threeish seconds. And now it's time for you to go uh get in your cart. Yes, I'd go talk to all your colleagues down there. Spread the word and co-drivers and spread the word. let him know. But yeah, it's going to be tough. But I wish you the best of luck. You're lying. Thank you. Here we go. It's time for the final race. Now, the rules are simple. If Max overtakes you, you have up until this arch to overtake him back. Otherwise, you're eliminated. We're here at the front of the grid. 100 drivers behind
me. We're going to go talk to some of the top qualifiers. See how they're feeling. See if they got any strategy. See if they can work together to beat Max. Play it safe on the first lap cuz you can lose the race on lap one, but you can't win it. I'm kind of nervous. I was sat over there shaking earlier. It's It's hard not to be. Max Stapen is chasing me down. Okay, so you're middle of the pack. What's the goal? What are you going to try to do? The first aim, turn one, full set, die.
Yeah. Pray and then my aim is to just get to the cheat line. If I make that, I'm happy. Okay, good. Aren't you the go-kart god? Shouldn't you be up at the front? I know. I got to hold my title today. So, I was up the front talking to the fast guys. They're kind of trying to work together back here. It seems like you guys are just trying to So they want us to sacrifice not happening. I'm trying to win. I'm trying. SO YOU CAN TELL THOSE GUYS UP THERE, WE'RE NOT DOING NOTHING FOR YOU. CUZ YOU GUYS HAD an opportunity to be up there. All right. And it didn't work out. You are driver
100. What's your mentality? Maybe too close to him. And the first yellow flag. It's because of me. All the drivers are getting in their carts. Max verse 100 about to start. I think this first turn is going to be crazy. But first, let's check in with Max. You had some time to put some laps down. I think you're three to fourish seconds faster than the fastest guy. If you had to guess, what lap do you think you're going to catch up to these top guys? The race is 30 laps, right? I want to at least catch up to four. You don't want to use all 30. Uh 27. All right, you heard it. 27. I will say this. If you want some insider information, I talked to a lot of the guys in the back. They're gonna want to
try to bully you a little bit. Okay, I'm a bigger bully. All right, best of luck to you. Thank you. Max is getting in his car. All of our drivers are ready. It is time to see if an F1 world champion can overtake 100 carts in 30 laps. Here come the lights. Three, four, five, and we see the green flag fly and it's a massive brawl on the main straight. I'm looking at Max Stan at the very back and he's going through them. He is slicing through them. I reckon he's got 10 before he's even got to the start line. Unbelievable. He's weaving left. He's weaving right and he's picking HIS WAY THROUGH NOW. DOES IT TURN INTO BUMPER CARS? He's on the grass. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MELEE. He's having TO AVOID IT.
HE goes over the road and he saw that one coming. He did his homework. Matt, what is happening here? I think he's passed about 20 cars into turn one, Alex. The start he got. Look at this yellow flag out. We got cars facing the wrong way. I have no idea what's going on. Oh my god, it's Carnage. Oh, you predicted carnage. A 30 car traffic jam at the back of the field. There's a complete log jam at the hairpin. Max is going TO THE INSIDE. HEY, GO. We've given all the drivers radio comps.
You can hear them shouting at each other. There's been some pretty There's some pretty gnarly crashes already. Oh. Oh, damn. That was a big crash. Anytime these guys crash gives him an opportunity to pick up spots. Uh, it looks like he's about halfway through the pack already and we're not even five turns into the race. Max has just gone past more than half the field. It's Max. For the majority of the field, they didn't even get a lap. We've got a fullc course yellow out here, Alex, but a lot of drivers still pushing out there. So, I'm uh I'm questioning right now whether now they've seen it out in the front of
the field have now realized it's a full course yellow. So, deep breath everyone. Okay, here they come around. There he goes. First full official lap on a full course yellow. He has passed 64 people. While it's a full course yellow, let's go to the pit lane. See what the eliminated drivers have to say. What happened? It's crazy. It went terribly. He's so fast. I'm going to be honest with you. I blinked. I knew he was past me. Carnage. I honestly I cannot believe Max got through that. I didn't even look and you was already past me.
Hey, he has a cool helmet and I said, "Wait a second." Because Max is catching these guys so fast, they have given the remaining drivers an extra lap to the fast lane. The full course yellow is gone and Max for Stafen is up to spot 37. And Max for Stafford is warp speed right now. Look at the frustration of those behind. There's nothing they can do. He's picking through for fun. Oh, we got some boys here. How are we doing? All right. How far did we make it? I took a deep breath and he was gone.
Oh, you did? Okay. You make a little lap. I got about six corners. Yeah. You know, the one thing I can say about this guy, this is why he's the best in the world because what he does, he's a master of his craft. That's right. He's a ma and I was talking all this stuff when I first got here, but Max, I'm sorry. I think it was cool that you guys were went out there, you gave it your all. You know, he's the best of the best. You got to race with the best of the best. Max estappen and queen B on the line. Queen B, you've got Max closing in. I'm trying so hard to get away from him. Max, this is so stressful.
Oh, it is. Yeah, it is. Oh my god. Right. Where are you? I'm trying so hard. Right. Okay. Thanks. Honestly, they're all about to have a massive fight. So, yeah, I'm going. Remember, you can't win it on the first lap, but you can lose it. You told me that. Yeah, exactly. I'm going to catch you ON THAT FLOOR. I STILL GOING. There's lots of this. Hey, what the heck, bro? Oh my god. But now he's getting into some guys who are pretty quick here.
We've got 75 minutes available. I'm not sure we're going to need all of it, man. I'm just looking. I think we're going to be done by lap 12. Let's catch up with Queen Bee and get her take on that crazy 1v one battle with Max. Hello. Are you okay? I'm all right. Yeah. How'd you do? We got four laps. That's incredible. Four laps. It was so much carnage, but I'm just happy that I lasted four laps. I moved up five places.
Come on. It's a win. That's a win. He is absolutely flying out there as Max Mustafen. Remember, Max didn't even know this track earlier on. He was learning it earlier this afternoon. Max has now made it into the top 10. OH, MAX IS OFF. HE'S OFF. I misjudged the corner a tiny amount. Oh my god, he lost the win. This has just been a joy all the way through the race. Here he goes. Picked off another one. Max is in sixth place. He had a little bit of an off, so he's a little bit further back. He's about 13.8 seconds from the leader. And
then the top three guys are within a second of each other. So they better pick up the pace because Mr. Versstappen is on a roll. Please. No. Hey, Max. Jeremiah here. How's it going out there? Hello. How you How are you guys doing in there? Max, you are 4 seconds faster than the leader. You're in fifth place.
They need to focus because I'm definitely catching them. Zack also. Zach, good news. You are P3. Bad news. Max is getting closer. Oh, thanks for the good news. Oh, he's on the same straight. Oh, no. No mercy from Max Stafford as Max goes to the inside and makes the place. Okay, Max is fourth right now. He's got three more guys to take down. We are at the start of lap 10. Max just laid down a 221. The leader is doing a 224.
This might be a sub 15 lap showdown. He's not messing around. He wants to win this. It's key to mention that top three have become the top two now. Osna's made a big mistake somewhere and lost five seconds to the front two which has left him all on his own with Max Vstappen bearing down on him. He's going to be scared out there. He's got Max right behind him but he's taking the fast lane to get away from him. I had a good look over the shoulder. I can't see him yet. Keep pushing. Oh, he's there. Trust me. He was on my backside before I took the quick lap.
Once I get some clean air, I'm coming for you. So, the top three are changing positions a couple times here and there. Not great. They should be working as a team, staying in a line. Now we're talking. I'm really in battle right now. Let's go. Come on, Martins. No scrapping this lap. And Max has got them in their sights. They're on the same straightaway now going into the Silverstone circuit. And we have also Osler and Martins as our top three. Maxappen closing the gap. closing in. He's now in the same turn as them.
Oh, there he is. Oh, I'm counting my lucky chickens. We make it another lap. Max, what do you think of the track? It's uh it's really a lot of fun to be honest. This is the first time that I drive it, but it's looks like a really great track. The funny thing is he's having a full-on conversation, and these guys are fully concentrated. They're fully locked in. Oh, no. He's right behind us, gentlemen. He is closing in right now. Ah, come on, man. Who's looking behind? He's not looking out the front of the cart, but now he's looking alongside at them bumpers as he goes through and a friendly wave.
Now Martin still has a opportunity to pass back because he didn't get him before the arch. And it looks like he's using his final fast lap to get back ahead of Max. But they've used their jokers now. They've used the corner cutting. Maxappen closing the gap. All right, Max has dropped back into fourth. But here's the deal. They cannot use the fast lane any more times. And Max is 3 seconds behind them. These guys want to win, you know, and they want to be at least the last person standing. Oh, they're fighting. Very lovely. Max on the radar just said, "Oh, they're fighting. How lovely." Cuz he's right.
The more they fight, closer he gets. He's within two seconds now. Oh, he's right behind last. You're seeing the lockups. You're seeing the bumping. They're locking up the tires. You can tell they're getting nervous. You have a four time F1 world champion behind you. And he's coming quick. Oh, dare me. And they are out of time and out of options. They are not ugly fast mates right now. Osler who's driven brilliantly is trying to hob the apex and neck. And now it's a fully defensive drive.
He's still ahead. Oh, they're still buying at the front AS WELL. THEY'RE BATTLING AT THE FRONT. AND WILL THEY OPEN THE door for Vstafen? Two for one right there. Oh, there he is. And has one car to go TO WIN IT ALL. THIS IS THE MOVE. There he goes. Well, boys, see you later. Max has passed 100 other drivers. When starting from the back of the grid, he made it look way too easy. And here he comes on the final stretch. Oh, that was simply nothing, wasn't it? Look at that. You said 27 at the start of this and you did it in half. So bad, isn't it?
You did 60 plus past 60 drivers with before. Yeah, lap one. Yeah. Is that a record for you? Oh, for sure. Yeah. I don't think I'm going to break that one ever again. So, I'll take Yeah. Well, Max, congratulations. You did it once again. You're the best.
