The science behind this is to minimallize turbo lag by blipping throttle aggressively throughout the corner, thus letting this be in a higher spool and better and more consistent spools. According Ayrton, it's also a way of finding the grip and when to get on the throttle. In a nutshell, Senna was literally a human anti-lag and traction control system.
@@HandicapRacer It's basically throwing the concept of slip angle out of the window since you're also constantly going from understeer to oversteer then back to understeer to oversteer until you've exited the corner. He also did that in an FF car before which is really helpful since you're combating the understeer an FF car offers.
Looks about right. Senna brakes light and early and jabs the throttle around the corner before the apex. Normally, drivers trail brake all the way to the apex and floor the throttle at the apex.
It accommodates two things, turbo lag and understeer. By repeatedly jabbing the throttle, the sudden weight shift helps maintain speed whilst getting the front tyres to stick to the track. It works great in rally as long, fast corners usually have points of understeer, and throttle jabbing helps stick to the center whilst not losing any speed.
Very cool, but in a turbo that spools up this quickly (like the one in the car you're using) the effect of blipping the throttle it pretty much negligible... Senna used to do this because the F1 cars at the time had MASSIVE turbos, that by themselves were adding 300bhp to the engine. Turbos this big, usually take very long to spool up, with an obscene amount of lag, back in that time, that technique was really useful, because Senna basically eliminated this lag, that F1 turbo cars had at the time. Very cool video though!
I'm sorry but you're wrong because he did this and naturally aspirated cars and turbo cars this is to keep finding the limit of the steering grip most people will just let off the throttle and coast through the corner unknowingly that they have a lot more front-end grip which can allow them to go faster through corners if they do this technique. And that's exactly what he's doing blipping the throttle but not fast he's flipping it just enough to feel if the car is about to understeer and then he lifts off again.
@HandicapRacer The main focus of the technique is to keep the turbo spinning (idk if you ever drove one of those things, but the turbos literally take up to a sec to spool up, depending on the corner). But yes, taking the car to the limit of it's front-end grip IS PART of the technique, not the entirety of it
@jsstt he did it in N/A cars too.... Because the whole point is to create slip angle vs understeer.... But clearly turbo spoiling seems to be your reasoning... Even though it's wrong... He did it in the EF CIVIC and NSX at Honda's test days.... No turbos on those...
@HandicapRacer as I said, creading slip is definitely part of the technique, but definitely not the point. But aye, more power to what you believe, I guess 🤔
Doesn't really make sense to do it in a modern car. It was really just meant to keep the turbo spooled. Back when he did it there wasn't any torque to worry about without the turbo.
The comments on this about anti lag and all this shit are so dumb. It’s literally just driving on the edge of grip…. Too much throttle and you oversteer. No throttle and you’re not as fast as aryton was. It’s pretty simple and straightforward

You got it. Why waste grip.

Correct again. Grip is grip, even if for a second, what coast through a corner and waste time.
@@gdmya It is still slip angle
You'd be fighting the Lift-off Oversteer in a rear heavy car.
Senna's technique in a McLaren makes everything better
I normally accidentally did this and noticed it's become habit to stop from losing the rear of the car

Senna did this back in his karting days and continued with it in his career as it minimised weight transfer and maximised grip in corners
Ah, yes, the WASD user technique
After I googled it, I actually lol'd. Very similar if you think about it🤣🫣
Ayrton Senna was a keyboard player and we didn't know it
Bro is the embodiment of Antilag and TC
Bruh, I always do this everytime I play a racing game to turn faster.
With antilag on strong😂
No antilag.... It's gtsport...

What game is this?
Gran Turismo Sport
When I was driving my steering wheel like that I burned the gas spring...
Using a Logitech G29
I’ve been doing this for years. You kids are slow
Muito útil. Nice drive
Digital throttle

This was only partially beneficial
If it's a fast corner yea
If it's slow you'll just loose even more time
😂 wrong.. if it works in fast cars the principle is the same for small cars... Finding the limit and using it
i do this a lot with a controller on assetto corsa servers to keep grip lmao
looks insanely slow
Holy what game?
GT7
Gran Turismo Sport
Is this circuit Big Willow?
Correct (i think if its another name for willow springs)
