No he’s referring the safety of the car being almost nothing. They were like giant go karts with 1000+hp. You can punch through body you couldn’t never do that today lol

can you imagine those days...with nelson prost nigel lauda keke and Senna ??? did i forget berger? and on and on?..and a german new driver name Schumacher? can you imagine these guys driving these new perfect machines ?
Don't they keep smashing the throttle repeatedly....if they try that in a modern car....they will put it in the wall Maybe Schumacher will do great cus he drove the V8 cars of 2010s which are closer to current cars
After watching this. I think they should have a classic race with this MP4 650 bhp and other top cars from that era .Great advertising for F1 on special occasions .If Lewis is anything to go by I think the drivers would love driving them as well
Modern F1 turbo technology is alien, it's so complicated in a good way. Especially Mercedes, I think that's why their road cars have exceptional turbo 4's.
Damn, that’s a moment Those were the wildest cars Wish that would come back with modern safety, that the manufacturers had the ability to make power and not have as many rules. Real racing

@@violinmiata I do not understand why we no longer have ABS, traction control, active suspension in F1. Formula 1 should be about the development of new technologies. The engines had 1400bhp (qualifying spec) in 1985, imagine what the power could be today
@@louiefos5710 Yep, failed steering column, the steerring wheel basically fell on Senna's lap. What killed Senna was the column that, without a steering wheel on the other end, punctured through Senna's helmet.
I believe to be exact... The steering column or wheel had been modified just before to save some weight. He probably never knew what went wrong as it happened. At least you hope so. Tragic beyond words.
That movie "Senna" is not just about the incredible Ayrton Senna. It also depict the exact moment when F1 cease to be a sport, and change to became a tecnological competition. Senna was the last great pilot of a age where pilots has to be pushed beyond the limit, to the extreme, not only in the track but outside also. Now, we just have a bunch of stupid guys trying to look cool piloting robots. F1 nowadays is too many buttons and no guts.
Clarkson and Hamilton are saying stupid things.On 80's there were 2 drivers that were shinning on top:Prost and Piquet.From 1980 to 1990 they had won 6 championships .Senna won one.And in addition Senna won championships only when he had a car which was 1sec faster than the rest

Every single time I re-watch this video it brings tears to my eyes. Unbelievable
Cheers from Brazil. Hamilton! The car surely did thank the opportunity of having a great driver driving it again in years.
I have to say, Top Gear did a very good job with this mini documentary in one episode.
Was Hamilton referring to Senna's death when he said this about racing in the old days:
'if a mechanic makes a mistake you're dead'.
No he’s referring the safety of the car being almost nothing. They were like giant go karts with 1000+hp. You can punch through body you couldn’t never do that today lol
I’d like to just stand near the car. It’s perfection, and was driven by the best driver to have ever lived.
Best driver ever lived is a bit over the top
@@TheRyan498 not really. When pretty much any other GP driver from 1990-current list Senna as the greatest, it’s saying something.
@@thesausage351 because he died on track. that instantly generates so much more respect and reverence for him. lets say prost switched places, we'd be saying everyday that alain prost was the best driver to ever live.
@@goomerpyle6005 negative.
Senna was amazing. Maybe the only one who could match senna or even bea little bit better was Schumacher.
True automotive enthusiast know what it's like to smile and laugh maniacally when you're by yourself in a car.
It's pure bliss.
The joy he had upon first acceleration sounded like myself when I finally had the funds to buy a sportscar whose 1/4-mile wasn't timed with a Mayon calendar.
Thumbs up to Ayrton Senna. Racing legend
also brought tears to my eyes...
When lewis was a normal guy
Sinto muita saudade de Senna. Hoje torço por você Hamilton e pelo outro Senna.
its all about the smile on the dial at the end of the day
can you imagine those days...with nelson prost nigel lauda keke and Senna ??? did i forget berger?
and on and on?..and a german new driver name Schumacher?

It would look like an alien race, "ufo" moves
Don't they keep smashing the throttle repeatedly....if they try that in a modern car....they will put it in the wall
Maybe Schumacher will do great cus he drove the V8 cars of 2010s which are closer to current cars
when he takes the car for a spin, they turn on the music :(
This. I just wanted Clarkson to f-ck off, no music, and just show Lewis driving the car and giving his thoughts
Monaco one handed just says it all 😳😳😳
Awesome to see that car again. Great job Top Gear and Senna is #1.
I HAVE ALWAYS HAVE A DOG FIGHT!.MAN, that car needs some damn serious balls to drive...AYRTON SENNA!.The name that chills your spine...RIP A SENNA!.
Senna was just the best pilot of all time... thats all.
I was in the 80 Ties a big boutsen fan. Great gentlmen driver!

Ayrton Senna!
The best.
Let this job for Alonso, he'll drive anything to the limit.
It’s like Marcus gold shoes driving a group B Audi Q
Pity the sound is off like 5 seconds, but fun to have seen this.
hey what song is used here
Damn, that’s a moment
Those were the wildest cars

This puts goose pimples and my hair stand up straight
Looks like a work of 🎨 art!!!.....
"Let's go, let's go! Can I go?"... XD
It was kinda funny watching it. To me Top Gear is all about fun and laughter, but this documentry was dead serious. Good job Top Gear...
Why does the thumbnail look CGI
1:26 to 1:41 - the 15 best seconds of youtube!
Im here just to hear the v12.
V6 1494cc turbo
If the shoe fits....
sin dudhas en esa epoca hamilton era elnumero 1 igual y los vi a todos marcelo miguens
How low were them side walls in Senna's car compared to nowadays,
And it took them incredibly long to introduce the higher walls, I believe it was only after Häkkinen's 1995 crash in Adelaide
Cool car. Senna was ferociously good but the speed killed him anyway. Just like Jim Clark.
I thought the steering column failed.
@@louiefos5710 Yep, failed steering column, the steerring wheel basically fell on Senna's lap.
What killed Senna was the column that, without a steering wheel on the other end, punctured through Senna's helmet.
im also watching this gem of a video in 2021. almost 2022. f1 season has ended and max is the new champion.
It is not the speed that caused his accident, it is basically a malfunction on senna’s car
I believe to be exact...
The steering column or wheel had been modified just before to save some weight. He probably never knew what went wrong as it happened. At least you hope so. Tragic beyond words.
Im actually surprise he knew what to do with the shifter.
It is a normal h shifter. The whole world (except the usa) drives them.

Hamilton is the new Senna. He is as good as the man.
You were right

Diego you fully predicted the future, now has 7 championships
What a privilege!
That’s why max won 🏆! Car not the person nowadays.

Smaller drivers only. Clarkson was definitely too fat to try.
@@Grunchy005 ignoring the fact that he's 6ft 5

What episode is?
I've got another question, I've decide I love another song in the video... Anyone know what the song is at 1:35? Dying to know so please answer! :)
I’m here also asking the same

sound if fucked up!
Hamilton does not deserve Senna Car.
He deserved to drive his hero’s car
screw Hamilton, too cocky, shumacher is the man.
