    Prost is mainly trying to improve slow corners exit speed which was a weakness of the V12 engine followed by debrief in Italian with Engineers where he explains that playing with the throttle does not help much

      You welcome. Unfortunately, this is all I have although I posted other videos before where you can hear Prost discussing car setup with Bernard Dudot while at Renault F1 Turbo in 1981-82
