What a problem, Mansell allowed volountarely to Senna pass, but Alain jump in first place becouse that day was faster than Ayrton. I don't think that take under controll with one hand was a problem for Ayrton, is sufficent see him in Monaco with the manual up and down shift leverage. Alan is one of the most underated champs of F1 history. That's the truth.
Crixus Mauperthuis He wasn't underrated by Senna either. The only reason the rivalry existed was because Senna knew Prost was the only guy on the grid who was capable of beating him every time they raced
@Crixus Mauperthuis I think you are being unfair to Senna. He truly was one of the best of all time, but he was always pushing to the limit (like Stefan Bellof) even when he didn't have to. That's why he sometimes crashed, whereas Alain rarely ever did. But a lot of drivers pushed to the limit, likely none of them reached his level. That said, most people (99% of the general audience) severely underrate Prost. Prost was the Jim Clark of his time in my opinion, except he never had his own Colin Chapman.
No speed limit back then. The pitlane speed limit wasn't introduced until mid-way through 1994. As the commentators were saying, Ferrari were also trialing the flappy paddle gear shifters. Ferrari actually introduced them in 1989, in 1990 they were still trying to get the system right. By the end of 1994, all the teams were using them.
@@LukewMorgan pit lane speed limits were introduced in practise sessions in 1993. No clue why it took them a year to get it into races since safety cars were introduced in 1993, would've made sense to also implement pit lane speed limits in '93 too
I wouldn't say the semi-automatic gearbox from that time was a complete advantage, it was the second season that ferrari used it and it wasn't completely good and reliable yet
it really seems like it was more of a proof of concept more than anything else that was rushed onto the car, although that assessment has the added benefit of hindsight but yeah, iirc it was this car that convinced Williams to hold off on introducing their semi-auto gearbox until more reliability testing was done.

@@kayzenl7911 that is just rubbish. The driver may or may not have been better, but the Ferrari had certainly improved over the year, with Mansel winning the previous race and Prost here in Spain.

Prost should have been world champion in 1990. Unfortunately he was not often helped by Mansell his teammate. (remember Estoril !!). And Senna should have been DQ after Suzuka. Maybe Senna was quicker but he was taken much more risks and was driven at 110% of his limits. Prost was only at 90%. Senna was often quicker on a single lap but during an entire race they were at the same level. Except Senna did much more mistakes than Prost. That's why I think Prost was better.

Inside the pit lane such a speed! Unbelievable. Anything stuck to the car like a botched refueling would be the end of the pit at this speed. (🇧🇷Senna ⚔️ 🇨🇵Prost)
Só lendas! Senna, Piquet, Mansell e Prost. Detalhes, Senna no câmbio até então tradicional e Prost trocando marcha no volante. Os mecânicos sem os tradicionais macacões e capacetes de hj (proteção).
2 of the greatest F1 drivers ever! A nice time... Fierce adversaries on the circuits, but once Prost stopped his career, and so the tension fell between them who were no longer opponents on the circuits, they had forgiven one and the other, and are close together. He was becoming true friends when Senna was hit in 1994... :-( Senna is a great driver but Prost was better sorry for the urban legend made by his blind fanatics. Bernie Ecclestone himself, however English so francophobe, but objective and logical man, when he was asked in a recent interview, what was for him the best F1 driver he had met in his career as the F1 Boss answered: "ALAIN PROST" (and not Senna sorry for his fanatics). Because for Bernie Alain was the only driver to win his 4 titles of world champion and his 51 victories, having his main opponent in his own team, so with the same car. And in addition Prost was always or often disadvantaged by the teams which favored his teammate/opponent! Prost won 51 Grand Prix and 4 WC, but he should have won 5 WC! Senna who hit him on the first corner of Suzuka in 1990, while Prost left in 1st rank alone... Result, that eliminates in this last race for the title Prost, and so Senna becomes (shamefully) world champion. Senna himself will admit 1 year later that he had voluntarily hit Prost to win the championship without running the last race. And even 6 titles for Prost because the title was also stolen to him in 1984! In 1984 he finished second at 0.5 points, yes only 0.5 points from Niki Lauda. Except that both were in the same team, McLaren TAG, and the German engine manufacturer TAG had voluntarily favor the Austrian Lauda against the young French Prost! Senna is a great driver sure, but he was not an angel, and he had no fair play on the tracks vs his main adversaries and so vs Prost. He was ready for the most dangerous folly to win. Prost no. Prost will say later: "I drove with 90-95% risks, Senna drove with 120% risks" Prost is at least equal in drive to Senna. He was even better. It was just that he was not ready to take all the worst risks at the wheel to win, as Senna did. To finish of course here, RIP Monsieur Senna...
Prost was decidedly far better than Senna. Not only he outscored the Sao Paulo taxi driver twice at McLaren despite team and Honda favouritism, but only abdicated the title race by being criminally cheated out on the first corner in Japan. He then comes back three years later to show Ayrton who was the boss, and bowed out as the champion. Funny trivia : Senna was always after Prost's cars - McLaren (invited by Prost), Ferrari (invited by Fiorio), and Williams (invited by Frank)... Senna's first podium was alongside Prost, and so was his last podium.
Well, as we know Senna was obsessed with Prost, he wanted his set-ups, his cars, and such. The brazilian knew very well who the daddy was, Prost by far the king of that era.
@@fistoftulkas7335 So much so that he lost all will to win in 1994. He looked gauche and out of place. He was lost. Full of doubts. Without a purpose. Alain had been his target from 1984 to 1993. He lost his driving force. That image of him under the Imola sun, in his car, without his helmet on, staring from the void into the skies above, with no mojo... What a contrast with the fierce, reckless and dangerous determination he displayed under the pouring rain in Adelaide 1989 only three season prior, when he eventuality crashed into Brundle. That fire had gone. Did Senna had a few wins left in him? Possibly. Did he have a title left in him? Probably not. Schumacher tried a comeback. He failed dramatically. Only Lauda and Prost managed a successful comeback, as far as I can recollect.
It was crazy. All of it. No pit lane speed limit. No fireproof jacket on the pit crew members. No track limits😂 All was obligated to a time. If you don't shift in the pit lane, you won't be quick enough to win. It's better now, but it was great to see the people risking their lives for the team success. If it could be possible to see them in modern cars. With shift levers under steering consoles. What a relief that could be to them😅
These kind of onboard videos made me love driving classic F1 cars in sim racing. I don't even touch modern F1s. Modern speed is fun, but not as much as trying to convince an old ass car not to kill you on the track ;) Pozdro666
At this time, Senna was quickest because he was younger than Prost. Prost was quickest in 1983-85.. Prost and Senna are the best drivers of the 80's with Mansell and Piquet.
For Ayrton was not a problem driving with the manual gear box, the true problem was the different time for change gear. The manual around three-four thents of second versus the few cents of second of the semi automatic by Ferrari.
Ferrari in my opinion was the better car in 1990 and the most beautiful car ever seen in F1 but the rivality Mansell Prost ( portugal grand prix.... ) gave both Championships at McLaren
I think you meant to say "I admired Prost". What you said sounds like Prost was your biggest fan (I'm just correcting your english, please don't take any offense).
This is the golden age of F1, Senna, Prost, Mansell, Piquet, proper engines and manual transmissions. No stupid track limits and drs crap, the rules were a lot simpler as well.
@@gaucho5073 Senna only beat Prost by three points in 1988, had the FIA counted all races Prost would have won by 11 points. In 1988, the best 11 results a driver had counted to the points total of the championship, and not all races. Had this season had a normal points system, then Prost would've won it by 11 points. Don’t lie to yourself. Prost deserved 1989 because he would have won the title no matter what happened in Suzuka.Senna needed to win both races to win the title, and he crashed out in the final race, meaning that even if he won Suzuka, he wouldn’t have won the title. Not to mention that Prost had a 20 point lead, which in todays point system is about 60 points. That is a huge lead, showing that he was better than Senna consistently. I don’t like senna at all, he was arrogant, always bitching about something, and a pedophile.
That year 1990, Prost made one of his best season in F1 because the Ferrari was really not competitive however he pushed Senna in its last entrenchments.
Prost clearly was a more complete driver than Senna at this point. But his feud with Cesare Fiorio messed the things for him in the team and that's why the second season was so bad in comparison.
Actually the Ferrari 641 was pretty evenly matched with the Mclaren MP4/5B. The Ferrari was designed by John Barnard the guy who made the MP4/2 that won the championship three times between 84-86. The Ferrari 641 had a better aero and chassis and had the faster shifting semi auto gearbox. The Mclaren had the upper hand in the engine department thanks to its Honda V10 engine that had more power than the Ferrari V12 engine. The Ferrari was faster on shorter twistier circuits and the Mclaren had the upper hand on fast circuits. That is why Senna pushed Prost out in Suzuka in 1990 because he knew that in race trim the 641 Ferrari was faster around Suzuka and if Prost got the lead he would keep it. Senna didn't want to push the championship decider to the final round in Adelaide.
A little bit like Mercedes and Ferrari in 2017 - Hamilton will surge ahead at Spa, Monza and Austin in the second half of the season but Ferraris will catch up in Singapore. Probably a tight finish in Abu Dhabi.
Senna was not above lying, cheating or dangerous driving to win, it is ironic that having caused so many collisions that when he died it was an accident and realty not hos fault.
Senna with a manual McLaren vs. Prost with a Ferrari which was the first to adopt paddles, the last hoorrays for analogue vs. the rise of the digital. Despite Senna being the last driver to win the World Championship with the manual (1991, on the McLaren MP4/6) and him still making a difference, in the early '90s it was yet clear what was the way to go. Then came Williams with the FW14 and 15, Formula 1 was irreversibly going not to be the same, and it mirrored the transition into the Digital Era the rest of the World was undergoing. By 1995, analogue, manual F1 cars were already in their death throes, with only backmarker Coloni still clinging to the concept, and that again was a sign of the times: Internet and Personal Computers were already omnipresent, and by that year, the World was mainly digital, and F1 with it.

Result, that eliminates in this last race for the title Prost, and so Senna becomes (shamefully) world champion. Senna himself will admit 1 year later that he had voluntarily hit Prost to win the championship without running the last race.
And even 6 titles for Prost because the title was also stolen to him in 1984!
In 1984 he finished second at 0.5 points, yes only 0.5 points from Niki Lauda.
Except that both were in the same team, McLaren TAG, and the German engine manufacturer TAG had voluntarily favor the Austrian Lauda against the young French Prost!
Senna is a great driver sure, but he was not an angel, and he had no fair play on the tracks vs his main adversaries and so vs Prost. He was ready for the most dangerous folly to win. Prost no. Prost will say later: "I drove with 90-95% risks, Senna drove with 120% risks"
Prost is at least equal in drive to Senna. He was even better. It was just that he was not ready to take all the worst risks at the wheel to win, as Senna did.
To finish of course here, RIP Monsieur Senna...
I fully agree with you, Pandemonium Lig.
Jo Ramirez, from the Mc Laren team, said himself Prost was better.
Prost was decidedly far better than Senna. Not only he outscored the Sao Paulo taxi driver twice at McLaren despite team and Honda favouritism, but only abdicated the title race by being criminally cheated out on the first corner in Japan.
He then comes back three years later to show Ayrton who was the boss, and bowed out as the champion.
Funny trivia : Senna was always after Prost's cars - McLaren (invited by Prost), Ferrari (invited by Fiorio), and Williams (invited by Frank)...
Senna's first podium was alongside Prost, and so was his last podium.
Well, as we know Senna was obsessed with Prost, he wanted his set-ups, his cars, and such. The brazilian knew very well who the daddy was, Prost by far the king of that era.
@@fistoftulkas7335 So much so that he lost all will to win in 1994.
He looked gauche and out of place.
He was lost. Full of doubts. Without a purpose. Alain had been his target from 1984 to 1993. He lost his driving force.
That image of him under the Imola sun, in his car, without his helmet on, staring from the void into the skies above, with no mojo...
What a contrast with the fierce, reckless and dangerous determination he displayed under the pouring rain in Adelaide 1989 only three season prior, when he eventuality crashed into Brundle.
That fire had gone.
Did Senna had a few wins left in him?
Possibly.
Did he have a title left in him? Probably not.
Schumacher tried a comeback. He failed dramatically.
Only Lauda and Prost managed a successful comeback, as far as I can recollect.
It was crazy. All of it. No pit lane speed limit. No fireproof jacket on the pit crew members. No track limits😂 All was obligated to a time. If you don't shift in the pit lane, you won't be quick enough to win. It's better now, but it was great to see the people risking their lives for the team success. If it could be possible to see them in modern cars. With shift levers under steering consoles. What a relief that could be to them😅
These kind of onboard videos made me love driving classic F1 cars in sim racing. I don't even touch modern F1s. Modern speed is fun, but not as much as trying to convince an old ass car not to kill you on the track ;) Pozdro666
Due piloti straordinari grazie per averci regalato anni fantastici
Automatic shift in the Prost car????
Semi-automatic. Paddle shifters on the back side of the steering wheel for up-shift and down shift. Required no clutch depressed by the driver.
VALHALLAXE thanks dude.
Senna's manual vs Prost's semi. It's fantastic to see that there was competition on that aspect of the car back then.
VALHALLAXE Prost's gearbox still required a clutch pedal at that stage.
WOW when we watch Senna's onboard cam we can feel the power.
Can't believe this was 30 years ago
Prost-Senna 👍 🇨🇵🇧🇷
Magnifique Prost 💪🏻💪🏻 quelle intelligence de course , il était juste impressionnant 👌
Bons tempos eram aqueles, esse pilotava muito.
Best moments in f1 history
Senna and Prost were the best two of that era,way above the rest,such a shame the way Ayrton died
Real F1, engine sound,best drivers..👍👏..
You can see that Alain Prost had a lot of understeer through a corners because of dirty air
A.Senna is the best F1 driver ever👍🏻
Wrong: A. Prost is the best F1 driver ever.
Senna is the best F1 driver dead. Prost is the best F1 driver alive!
Wrong. Jim Clark is the best racing driver of all time.
At this time, Senna was quickest because he was younger than Prost. Prost was quickest in 1983-85.. Prost and Senna are the best drivers of the 80's with Mansell and Piquet.
Big Sam you still had to use a clutch in the Ferrari. Plus the Ferrari was no where near as good as the McLaren that year.
For Ayrton was not a problem driving with the manual gear box, the true problem was the different time for change gear. The manual around three-four thents of second versus the few cents of second of the semi automatic by Ferrari.
Senna é Senna é acabou.fim de papo.na minha opinião o melhor piloto de todos.
Che rompicazzo i brasiliani con Senna! Lui era velocissimo, ma Prost era molto più freddo e intelligente.
sereno353 verdade os dois foram lendas da f1 , é infelizmente nunca mais veremos isso de novo . mais na minha opinião Senna foi bem melhor.
ruclips.net/video/GG-YVa70-JE/видео.html&app=desktop
@@sereno353 Prost era un preparatore migliore.
@@alexvieira967 Eu concordo com você
Back when when a Honda engine beat a Ferrari engine
The Professeur... Speechless.
Back when they looked like race cars, sounded like race cars and were driven by fearless men.
Sério que a Ferrari já estava com câmbio semi automático? E o Senna na alavanca manual ainda
3:42 to 3:52. It's good to be alive.
Ferrari in my opinion was the better car in 1990 and the most beautiful car ever seen in F1 but the rivality Mansell Prost ( portugal grand prix.... ) gave both Championships at McLaren
Just blasting down pit lane 💪😱🏁👍
My first ever watching f1 was 1990 Spanish GP. I was really admired by Prost.
I think you meant to say "I admired Prost". What you said sounds like Prost was your biggest fan (I'm just correcting your english, please don't take any offense).
@@johndough247 Makes me remember my 12-year old me who wrote "I'm Alonso's biggest Idol" 😅
No speed limits in the pitlane that looks scary.
These guys make it look easy
PROST IS AWESOME !
Senna de cambio manual esse ano e Prost de automatico nas aletas e Senna ainda foi campeão mundial
Because Mansell,he must bé champion that year
This is the golden age of F1, Senna, Prost, Mansell, Piquet, proper engines and manual transmissions. No stupid track limits and drs crap, the rules were a lot simpler as well.
Alain Prost with steering wheel shift and Ayrton Senna lever shift
Prost professeur meilleur pilote au monde
Prost was the best, you my hero....miss thoses moments
Don't you think we need to add rockets and mines in todays f1 just like rock'n'roll racing!
No momento 00:22 segundos passar uma sombra na frente do alan Prost Senna na frente
Alain Prost foi maior piloto da sua geração, está entre os dez maiores da história da f1
Sorry brother, no one else to compares to Ayton Senna!👍fact
@@edsonbatista4137 The truth is that Prost beat Senna 1988 and 1989
@@gaucho5073 That’s absolutely false. Senna only won 88 because the FIA didn’t count all the races, and Prost deserved 89 and 90.
@@gaucho5073 Senna only beat Prost by three points in 1988, had the FIA counted all races Prost would have won by 11 points. In 1988, the best 11 results a driver had counted to the points total of the championship, and not all races. Had this season had a normal points system, then Prost would've won it by 11 points. Don’t lie to yourself. Prost deserved 1989 because he would have won the title no matter what happened in Suzuka.Senna needed to win both races to win the title, and he crashed out in the final race, meaning that even if he won Suzuka, he wouldn’t have won the title. Not to mention that Prost had a 20 point lead, which in todays point system is about 60 points. That is a huge lead, showing that he was better than Senna consistently. I don’t like senna at all, he was arrogant, always bitching about something, and a pedophile.
Errado. O Senna foi maior.
The speed on the pit now - as "Sesame Street"
The speed on the pit then - "Deep Throat"
"put it in reverse, Terry!"
That year 1990, Prost made one of his best season in F1 because the Ferrari was really not competitive however he pushed Senna in its last entrenchments.
Prost clearly was a more complete driver than Senna at this point.
But his feud with Cesare Fiorio messed the things for him in the team and that's why the second season was so bad in comparison.
Actually the Ferrari 641 was pretty evenly matched with the Mclaren MP4/5B. The Ferrari was designed by John Barnard the guy who made the MP4/2 that won the championship three times between 84-86. The Ferrari 641 had a better aero and chassis and had the faster shifting semi auto gearbox. The Mclaren had the upper hand in the engine department thanks to its Honda V10 engine that had more power than the Ferrari V12 engine. The Ferrari was faster on shorter twistier circuits and the Mclaren had the upper hand on fast circuits. That is why Senna pushed Prost out in Suzuka in 1990 because he knew that in race trim the 641 Ferrari was faster around Suzuka and if Prost got the lead he would keep it. Senna didn't want to push the championship decider to the final round in Adelaide.
muy cierto lo que dices.
18 points short in the Championship!!
A little bit like Mercedes and Ferrari in 2017 - Hamilton will surge ahead at Spa, Monza and Austin in the second half of the season but Ferraris will catch up in Singapore. Probably a tight finish in Abu Dhabi.
This was real Formula 1 #Dijon1979
Ayrton senna....the F1 legend that died....but showed persistence....confidence and great sportsman ship R.I.P Great lad!
Senna was not above lying, cheating or dangerous driving to win, it is ironic that having caused so many collisions that when he died it was an accident and realty not hos fault.
Alain overcutting Senna and overtaking Mansell at the same time GOAT
Is that a young David Hobbs commentating?
Max Benard *Younger
I'm not a big safety guy when it comes to F1, but even I think it's crazy that they didn't have a pitlane speed limit before 1994.
Professor deu aula em Senna.
I think now I know why Prost said the Ferrari is handled like a truck
Senna with a manual McLaren vs. Prost with a Ferrari which was the first to adopt paddles, the last hoorrays for analogue vs. the rise of the digital.
Despite Senna being the last driver to win the World Championship with the manual (1991, on the McLaren MP4/6) and him still making a difference, in the early '90s it was yet clear what was the way to go. Then came Williams with the FW14 and 15, Formula 1 was irreversibly going not to be the same, and it mirrored the transition into the Digital Era the rest of the World was undergoing.
By 1995, analogue, manual F1 cars were already in their death throes, with only backmarker Coloni still clinging to the concept, and that again was a sign of the times: Internet and Personal Computers were already omnipresent, and by that year, the World was mainly digital, and F1 with it.
セナは片手でシフトチェンジしてるのがカッコイイな。
Era no braço antigamente, Senna the best.
Le professeur a appris à Senna comment conduire.
