That man was born to drive race cars. He was outstanding even among the most elite drivers. A natural ability that can't be taught and is either there or it isn't. In his case it was there.
there's no such thing as natural ability. maybe natural advantage (inherited predisposition), but everything must be learned and practiced to be really great. In senna's case he was kart racing since age 4.
Penguin Pie The idea of being "naturally" good at something comes more from the fact that some people are capable of learning amd comprehending things much faster and better than others. You do have drivers that are gifted in this sense.
Actually there is... The natural ability to learn something faster in given field. Natural ability gives you the ability to think while also doing that field at it's limits. In racing for example drivers with natural ability can drive at the speed limit for every corner as well as the cars limit and still capable to think "gosh did i pay my bills yesterday i hope i did i cba deal with that shit again" while other drivers will be so occupied at controlling the car at it's limits they just watch how to survive the next corner... THat's what natural ability is. More processing power in a given field.
This guy had so much Will, Character, Spirit, Passion, Heart, Temper, Humbleness... not only to be a F1 CHAMPION but as well to become a Great Human Being, that is a example for people that are trying to understand themselves and striving to do their best in life.
+Lauro Morais Senna would endanger your life to the point of possibly killing you or himself to win a race, while at the same time he would not hesitate to lay down his own life to save yours. Though that makes sense to hardly anyone, it has always made perfect sense to me.
I turned on English captions hoping for a translation, only to find that it says [Music] any time the engine revs above 7000 rpm. Pleasantly surprised.
Sin casco, punta-tacón, kick-down, siempre por encima de 5000rpm, con mocasines y gafas de sol. Un legendary thug life driving en toda regla. Ayrton para siempre. Crack!
I love the way he used to jab the throttle continuously in the corners...very unique. You could never tell that from outside the car as he looked so smooth.
I've always wanted one. NA1s used to go for 25k-35k for decent examples...But since, the Senna movie...My god, you would be lucky to find one at 45k...
Without helmet, without gloves and in shoes, the guy was a genius driving, he's one of those people that exist just once in a lifetime, R.I.P Senna, the greatest racing driver of all time.
Most of us mere mortals would probably only use 50% of the NSX's full potential on a race track, yet here is Senna pushing it to the very limit - what an absolute legend.
:D nice catch... if you look at how fast it reached the top speed of its speedo, either the speedo wasnt stock or there was a bit more power than in a standard nsx there
yea it's kinda strange how most japanese sport cars from that era, just went up to 180km/h one speedo. probably it has smth to do with gentleman agreement
Oscar Escobar on the Japanese roads, cars were limited to 112 mph, or 180kmph. More than likely, they took off the limiters. The nsx had a top speed of 170 mph, the fastest of all of the jdms at the time when it comes to speed. This is because the nsx was also made for the us market. So it didn’t have the 112 mph limiter nor the 155 mph limiter for the us models under the Acura emblem.
I had a coworker from Brazil. We couldn't talk much about Senna because we both would start crying. Piquet, on the other hand, would draw a laugh and huge smile.
The steering and throttle were "all over the place" because he is testing the car: its traction, how and when it will step out, how much steering lock it takes to correct, how the the car settles into the corner, what it takes to upset the car mid corner, etc. These are all things the Honda engineers need to know.
That unique throttle technique... very hard to find more details on it 😢 unfortunately we have very little data on his telemetry to analyze and learn what he was actually doing with those throttle snaps. Amazing. RIP GOAT!
If you have ever done the throttle snaps in a car, especially a throttle driven by cable, the way it jerks - he could've been using it for weight distribution through physics. Slightly upsetting the car for it to turn it a little better than without it as it would dance more
@@4our6ixkwvmz Man, if u had ever driven a racing car doing this u would know it is not simple like that at all. Even tough he could be making that for weight distribution, this technique would cause him lot of understeer by puting extra load on rear, lifting front, and also why would he be putting more load on rear to correct the car when he is not even close to reaching rears limit? I mean if u note, when turning the wheel he turns it into the understeer limit, because of the understeery behavior of that car, so the tendency would be to put more weight on front to increase the understeer limit, not put weight on back, that would work if he was in a more oversteery car, wich is not the case. And also he used to do this technique always, no matter what car he was driving, so I dont think it is related to weight transfer.
I thought I'd read somewhere that it was a technique he'd picked up from the turbocharged 80s F1 cars to keep the turbos spooled up throughout the corners? Not sure if that's the only reason or I could be making the whole thing up lol
It's amazing how you would rationalize much like every other F1 driver that the quickest way around the track would be with smoothly finessing the throttle. Telemetry showed that to be the case with virtually everyone but Senna, he would aggressively stab at the throttle to learn where the limit of adhesion to the track was.
well and the fact that he was in a mid-engine NSX he was driving most correct to the breed. It would seem counter intuitive to many but stabbing the throttle throughout the turn helps proper weight transfer to avoid snap over-steer when driving a mid-engine sports car flat out. Former mid engine driver here. Senna is the master even in loafers. Awesome clip.
ohedd In most mid engine vehicles the weight distribution is more favored to the rear of the car. When you go into a turn the momentum and inertia of the vehicle will cause the heavy end to want to breakout and 'switch' ends under deceleration. The counter is to apply acceleration to keep the back of the vehicle planted so the suspension doesn't change dynamic in an unbalanced way. Hence the feathering, finessing, or "stabbing" to keep the mid-engine from trading ends. There are so many variables too, consisting of driver, track, and vehicle that i wasn't trying to make a blanket statement that encompasses every possible scenario. Alas.. This applies.
Some serious racing driving skills to be learned there: 1:58 See how he shifts the weight to the front wheels when it's starting to understeer by just touching the breaks. It's been argued why Senna blipped the throttle. In a turbo car, it could partly have been to keep the turbo pressure up but likely he also used it as a manual stability control. Also, and this is something that Sir Jackie has promoted as well: Once you have pressed the gas pedal, you don't lift off again. Never press it until you are 100% sure that you don't need to lift off. Senna can be seen doing that throughout the clip.
+Kenneth9725 No, the front wheels are the one that direct the car. If there is more weight, there is more traction, and therefore less slip while turning.
+CF88DRUM Yeap. azynkron you just trying to be too professional. Every driver slows down at the famous spoon curve so it's not something that special. While I agree that Senna is a great driver, your "professional" analysis is invalid
+Kenneth9725 It depends on how much you brake. If you just brake something 5% till10% you will increase the grip of the front tyres because of a better tyre footprint deformation. Check out race car vehicle dynamics for more infos. Best book out there.
Say what you like about his choice of footwear, but if driving was a religion, Senna would be God. The man had super-natural skills..... What a shame he's gone. RIP Ayrton.
Absolutely amazing. He feathers the throttle constantly. Even going round corners. I was always told to get to entry speed then not adjust until apex. Absolute legend. Luv and Peace.
Still stoked to see this in 24. There are Artists who can play an Engine like a Violin. A loud, friggin fast Violin. It is great to see this. All of this. And I'm sure to watch it again.
Your not, from every automotive lover around the world. People waste time arguing if he was the best, the important thing is that he was one of the greatest and his legacy is eternal.
"I have a God-given right to win" - that's what he used to say... he was that passionate & committed about winning. I wish they had shot the video through the first past of the track, through the Ss... would've been wonderful to see him flog the NSX through the Ss.
@Jake not really considering motoharu kurosawa aka gan-san's driving and senna's driving at suzuka are almost identical. tsuchiya isn't slower than gan-san. watch?v=PmAZI31_jtE also, the nsx has been pushed to its limit at the ring by gan-san too. watch?v=hMqYxjkW9Vs
I do admire that you pick a time at which the car loses traction when his foot is off the throttle and he isn't dabbing it. What Superbdrivemate was trying to say was that he couldn't put his foot down, feel the loss of grip and get it up so fast in such quick succession. He did not talk about feeling lateral change of the rear of the car in relation to the front and then altering the steering angle to regain control, which is the part of the video that you have pointed out as fast reactions.
This video shows why true petrol heads can never love EVs. The noise from that screaming V6, Senna deftly balancing the car on it's very limit on every bend - just sublime !!
1:32 that's Senna's iconic driving technique right there, alongside his heel toe. Jabbing the throttle in order to regain lost grip, on off on off Not many driver can do it, and only Senna perfected it.
@@halolime117 he jabbed the throttle way more rapidly to be called feathering it. Why i say it's his 'own" technique is because he literally does it on his F1 cars. Other drivers would apply smooth application on the throttle when turning on a corner. Senna meanwhile would jab the throttle agressive when turning in. There's a video for that that highlights the difference between his cornering and other driver's.
@Nathan/Will - agreed - missed upshift-- First to say, Senna is my favorite, all time driver, it's nice to see even HE missed a shift now and then. But, in this case, remember, this is a RIGHT HAND DRIVE car..(Just coming back from Australia, I can say, it's weird!) Pretty sure not something he drove too often, making it even MORE awesome how he's driving it here. Just incredible car control! RIP Ayrton, you were one of a kind ...
Note Ayrton's unique Blip,Blip ,Blip technique to balance the car on the throttle as he goes thru the corners, A legacy of his karting days,....I heard it many times watching him on the track, nice to see it in action so to speak.
That's what happens when you're at a high level at any physical skill. You aren't actually thinking through your actions, most of it is muscle memory (or similar).
look at the way he stabs the throttle in the corners that was what made him so fast the quick on off throttle jabs kept the car right on the edge of oversteer
To all the people that question his driving is totally full of shit. The way he can balance the throttle and he doesn't make quick or jerky movements in the steering is amazing. I can guarantee that most of the people who talk crap couldn't get within 20% of the skill that Ayrton Senna has.
jerky movements you mention would kill you on these tracks. rally racers use them. I don't. it's the way to stabilize the car on bumpy road ful of bends and surface unevenness, or when driver doesn't exactly know or have time to clearly see whether he goes to the right or left, in case the velocity is higher than his reflexes and ability to react. it badly influences the inertia fi driviing on race tracks in higher speeds. but it all at the end of the day comes down to individual car's suspension and setup.
No sé si Senna fue el mejor de la historia, pero reunió características únicas: carisma, obviamente un talento inconmensurable, pasión por su profesión (que en ocasiones se convirtió en una intensidad mal vista por sus colegas) y una competitividad sin igual al volante. Por eso fue especial y 25 años después de su muerte su nombre sigue siendo tan grande y reputado como en 1994. Descanse en paz, Gran Campeón.
todos, apesar dos hater's, que o Senna é o melhor piloto de automobilismo da história, muitos colocam Shumacher como um piloto superior a ele, o que discordo, se não fosse aquele fatídico acidente que infelizmente tirei a vida dessa lenda, na época muitos falavam que o diferencial do Senna era a super capacidade de fazer com que ganhasse muita velocidade na saída das curvas, todos citavam isso como uma grande vantagem, além da grande perícia nas trocas de marcha e nos pontos de frenagem, sou leigo a respeito de dirigir carros, mas sempre gostava de assistir as corridas de f1 na época do grande Ayrton Senna, pelo que eu pude entender do vídeo, esse ganho em velocidade nas saídas das curvas se dava porque ele tinha uma grande perícia de ao fazer frenagens, conseguir ao mesmo tempo dá toques de aceleração e assim manter a rotação do motor maior em comparação aos demais pilotos que não possuíam a mesma técnica que ele, não sei se os demais pilotos pilotavam do mesmo modo, mas se ele fazia isso para na saída da curva ter o carro já numa rotação superior a normal se ele apenas freasse para depois acelerar, a técnica dele era de um gênio, alguém me corrija se eu estiver errado, mad pelo que eu pude entender e que esses toques no acelerado era justamente para que a rotação do motor não perdesse giros nos pontos de frenagem nas curvas, sendo assim na saída delas ele conseguia sair com mais velocidade em relação aos demais pilotos, era esse o diferencial dele?

this guy a legend bruh, no race suit, loafers and sunglasses LMAO
I do admire that you pick a time at which the car loses traction when his foot is off the throttle and he isn't dabbing it. What Superbdrivemate was trying to say was that he couldn't put his foot down, feel the loss of grip and get it up so fast in such quick succession. He did not talk about feeling lateral change of the rear of the car in relation to the front and then altering the steering angle to regain control, which is the part of the video that you have pointed out as fast reactions.
never forgotten----his legend lives on !!
0:09 "I drive and come back here?" Yes Ayrton,we don't expect you to run away with our precious NSX
Senna... What a brilliant mad man.
Love it how it taps the throttle as he's coming out of a corner...
Im pretty sure hes doing that to keep his revs up, he just does it by sound too as he picks his line coming out of the corner
Cool to see the legend put the car he was involved in the development of through its paces properly. What a guy, one of the all time greats.
This video shows why true petrol heads can never love EVs. The noise from that screaming V6, Senna deftly balancing the car on it's very limit on every bend - just sublime !!
1:32 that's Senna's iconic driving technique right there, alongside his heel toe.
Jabbing the throttle in order to regain lost grip, on off on off
Not many driver can do it, and only Senna perfected it.
Not only grip, this way he keeps the engine in optimal RPM and power all the time
You mean feathering the gas? 😂 That’s hardly his own technique it’s completely normal to do that
@@halolime117 he jabbed the throttle way more rapidly to be called feathering it.
Why i say it's his 'own" technique is because he literally does it on his F1 cars. Other drivers would apply smooth application on the throttle when turning on a corner. Senna meanwhile would jab the throttle agressive when turning in. There's a video for that that highlights the difference between his cornering and other driver's.
Basically just makes his own traction control
@Nathan/Will - agreed - missed upshift-- First to say, Senna is my favorite, all time driver, it's nice to see even HE missed a shift now and then. But, in this case, remember, this is a RIGHT HAND DRIVE car..(Just coming back from Australia, I can say, it's weird!) Pretty sure not something he drove too often, making it even MORE awesome how he's driving it here. Just incredible car control! RIP Ayrton, you were one of a kind ...
What a Legend ! - You can see the speedo right off the scale down the straight
Straight to attack mode. So refreshing to watch a Senna highlight.
Note Ayrton's unique Blip,Blip ,Blip technique to balance the car on the throttle as he goes thru the corners, A legacy of his karting days,....I heard it many times watching him on the track, nice to see it in action so to speak.
*Looks down at own $200 Piloti driving shoes*. Bollox!
after the ride he's like "Oh THAT's the NSX? I was gonna switch to my real shoes instead of these loafers"
Inspiring :') Thank you Senna
I hope he rests well, at peace, knowing all of the racing fans and manual drivers admire him!
I swear to god the man could put a school bus full of kids on the podium if given the chance. He was amazing.
Sin palabras el mejor piloto de los tiempos
This is really cool. I loved watching his feet "dance". Thanks for the upload!
I love how instinctive his hands movement is. It's like he is in absolute control of the car without even thinking about it.
Ummm, it's Senna
That's what happens when you're at a high level at any physical skill. You aren't actually thinking through your actions, most of it is muscle memory (or similar).
look at the way he stabs the throttle in the corners that was what made him so fast the quick on off throttle jabs kept the car right on the edge of oversteer
God that engine sounds great
gotta love the socks!!!! RESPECT!!!
Like a boss! (Literally!)
To all the people that question his driving is totally full of shit. The way he can balance the throttle and he doesn't make quick or jerky movements in the steering is amazing. I can guarantee that most of the people who talk crap couldn't get within 20% of the skill that Ayrton Senna has.
I think when we say, "wow, hes got a nice heel and toe technique", people are actually looking at his feet not the rev-counter.
Sean Larson try 0.005%
"people that question his driving"
That's a funny joke!
jerky movements you mention would kill you on these tracks. rally racers use them. I don't. it's the way to stabilize the car on bumpy road ful of bends and surface unevenness, or when driver doesn't exactly know or have time to clearly see whether he goes to the right or left, in case the velocity is higher than his reflexes and ability to react. it badly influences the inertia fi driviing on race tracks in higher speeds. but it all at the end of the day comes down to individual car's suspension and setup.
Well I beat his lap time in Gran Turismo 6. 😎
Senna has this magical way of bringing the absolute most potential out of a cars performance and putting it on the track
And on top of everything else mentioned - hes using his left hand to row thru the gears instead of his usual right hand. Absolutely brilliant!
oh my crap this is legendary
One of the best driver on history, probably the best.
Fucking awesome downshift...
0:22 how the fuck would someone refuse that invitation?
Rafael Oda i would
He must be scared)
water comes out of my face until this very day. RIP
A real Master. The last Brazilian F-1 champion and one of the greatest drives of all times!
2:17 .. not only heel and toe.. even tapping a little the gas for not losing back end on late deep into corner braking.. he was a real talent..
And that corner is the original 130r!!!!!!
See how he regulates the throttle so well, and how his wheel is almost never straight? Yeah, he was truly one of a kind...
I'd rather have this exact NSX than any slammed, stanced, track ready, modded example anywhere.
Wow, what a stud! Those shoes, those shades and that hair... As if his natural driving talent wasn't enough!
No sé si Senna fue el mejor de la historia, pero reunió características únicas: carisma, obviamente un talento inconmensurable, pasión por su profesión (que en ocasiones se convirtió en una intensidad mal vista por sus colegas) y una competitividad sin igual al volante. Por eso fue especial y 25 años después de su muerte su nombre sigue siendo tan grande y reputado como en 1994. Descanse en paz, Gran Campeón.
This is the most important video on TH-cam.
I would have liked to see him drive rally
Yes, he did try rally driving..there's a vid here on youtube somewhere :)
*****
Where????????!!!!! (>.

Senna...THE WORLD LOVES YOU AND MISSES YOU. I wish I could have seen you drive. truly magnificent.
todos, apesar dos hater's, que o Senna é o melhor piloto de automobilismo da história, muitos colocam Shumacher como um piloto superior a ele, o que discordo, se não fosse aquele fatídico acidente que infelizmente tirei a vida dessa lenda, na época muitos falavam que o diferencial do Senna era a super capacidade de fazer com que ganhasse muita velocidade na saída das curvas, todos citavam isso como uma grande vantagem, além da grande perícia nas trocas de marcha e nos pontos de frenagem, sou leigo a respeito de dirigir carros, mas sempre gostava de assistir as corridas de f1 na época do grande Ayrton Senna, pelo que eu pude entender do vídeo, esse ganho em velocidade nas saídas das curvas se dava porque ele tinha uma grande perícia de ao fazer frenagens, conseguir ao mesmo tempo dá toques de aceleração e assim manter a rotação do motor maior em comparação aos demais pilotos que não possuíam a mesma técnica que ele, não sei se os demais pilotos pilotavam do mesmo modo, mas se ele fazia isso para na saída da curva ter o carro já numa rotação superior a normal se ele apenas freasse para depois acelerar, a técnica dele era de um gênio, alguém me corrija se eu estiver errado, mad pelo que eu pude entender e que esses toques no acelerado era justamente para que a rotação do motor não perdesse giros nos pontos de frenagem nas curvas, sendo assim na saída delas ele conseguia sair com mais velocidade em relação aos demais pilotos, era esse o diferencial dele?
