True 101%. We know that they have always been unfair to Rubens and the reason is obvious. He succeeded Ayrton and they didn't want another Brazilian driver to kick their ass. Rubens is the man. True F1 fans know that. The rest are just ignorant or "in a mission"..
In the past I watched footages of Jim Clark driving on wet, man, the guy was RIDICULOUSLY superior to anyone on track, his car was dancing, and I remember some driver after race saying something like 'if I have to drive like this to be a champ, a prefer not to be'. Then I watched Ayrton Senna, who I instantly recognized Jim Clark's 'pedigree', these two guys were the two absolute GENIUSES and MASTERS of wet driving.
It is being told that Senna was a horrible driver on wet tracks back in his go-kart days so he deliberately went and practiced every time it was raining. Not sure whether it is a true story but this type of determination fits into his personality.
Donington '93 What everyone remembers: Lap Of Gods: Senna P5 to P1 in a single lap,to win the race and beat the favorites,Williams. What not many people remember: Barrichello starting P12 in a uncompetitive Jordan,in a point of the race he was fighting for a place to the podium,only to retire 6 laps from the end because of fuel exhaustion.
I was going to mention that..from 12 to 4 in the first lap, overtaking Alesi in a Ferrari and Schumacher in the Benetton, like they where backmarkers in slower cars.

Sim, mas o Ayrton passou Wendlinger, Schumacher, Hill e Prost. E passaria qualquer um que estivesse na frente dele, mesmo se estivesse numa Minardi. Mas o foda mesmo foi em Monaco 1984. Iria vencer de Tolleman se não parassem a prova.
Yep, I came here to tell Ruben's story as well. His feat was greater than Senna's on the first lap, shit car, shit engine, low budget team. Sadly many midfield drives are not recognised.
This shows how overrated Senna actually is. Merely one lap versus a whole race at the Green Hell, yet most lemmings here drool over Senna instead of appreciating what Stewart achieved. That's just pathetic.
To me the best moment should be Interlagos 1991, where Senna drove last 8 laps in rainy conditions being first and lasting 6th gear working only. To any other pilot would had been impossible to govern 1200 bhp in the rain with 6th gear, he did and won for the first time in his home land. Excellent mastering.
The cars did not have 1200 bhp in 91, which was well after the transition to NA from Turbo. And the cars only ever had 1200 bhp in quali during the turbo era because quali didn't have the same regulations as it does now. They never had 1200 bhp in the race. That would have blown the engine.
in 91 it didn't have 1200 hp... they had 1200 hp in 1986 during the maximum expansion of the turbo era and only in a qualifying configuration with engines that ran with turbo pressures of 5.5 bar!
@@rick.05 Agreed. Senna suspension was a couple of laps away from failure after belting the wall at the chicane. Bellof was taking time from both Prost and Senna
Bellof was disqualified at Monaco. The Tyrrell was underweight. In those days they were cheating with water tanks to cool the brakes, ostensibly. But yes Bellof was doing what he did best driving very fast. Also taken far too soon.
Jackie Stewarts race will be no.1 for a long time, racing in the Green Hell in the worst possible condition is unheard of, let alone winning the race in a time where F1 cars were considered death machines

@FRANCESCO SOLA there's so much wrong with this list. Schumacher Spanish gp drive in 1996 was put in 6th place ffs, yet Damon's in 1994 was no where near as impressive when Benetton got the strategy wrong.
@@weallfollowmanutd I bet Surer(lost out to him by 0.156) and Brundle(crashed heavily) wished they made it in, but I doubt we'd have seen something similar by them with their NA cars.
That was a great drive by Seb but nowhere near number 1. The Toro Rosso back then was way better than it is now, and it was suited to Monza. Bourdais qualified p4 with it.
@@marcomolinari94 ok..it wasen't wet all the way..but starting from 18 and driving with dry tires..with invasion or not, it was a drive in the same level of some in the list.
@@resulnaki Cheater? Where was he in Donington '93? How many poles while Senna was alive? Won title in '94 with illegal car (we all know how) against Damon who was much slower than Senna.. All those mid-90's titles with later sorted out Williams would be Senna's had he survived and Schumi's statistics would look much different. Not to mention Shcumi's teammates which he choose to watch his back, easier competitors and many more things.. So maybe best for you but for most of us-not
I must say these drivers definitely deserve deep respect. Superior skills. The dry track is dangerous let alone the pouring rain. Slipping into it. Also these tracks are so darn impressive. Thumbs up!!! Lotta mist in rear. Well done.
How could you forget Ayrton Senna's incredible race onboard of a limited Toleman car at Monte Carlo on 1984. He was about to win when he was at second and approaching to Prost under heavy rain and they decided to end such amazing race.
LOL, Senna and Hamilton in wet conditions?? Anyone betting on Hamilton better buy a lottery ticket. More chance of winning. Hamilton is okay in wet, but far from being great, except when he hits the right tire strategy. Which happened twice. But other than that, many drivers are better than him in wet. Which was pretty clear in Turkey 2020, when he was horrible during the wet phase, and only returned to the top after the track got dry again. If it kept raining he wouldn't have a chance.
BTW, in Japan 2007 it was Kovalainine who made it from 12th place to 2nd place, in a much slower car. If he had a few more laps maybe he'd end up 1st. And even if he wouldn't Webber certainly would. As he was a lot faster per lap than both LH and Heiki. Fortunately for LH, Vettel took care of Webber, hitting him from behind and completely demolishing his car. So.... I'd say it was more luck than skill. But for Kovalainen it was definitely skill, jumping from 12th place to 2nd, ending only 8 secs behind LH. In a lot slower car.
@@TEGRULZ In dry weather, the "illegal" Tyrrells were the slowest cars on the grid, weren't they. How can such a slow car perform that way in the wet? Ask Brundle, he was driving the same car as Bellof.
Driving left hand only in a car that was all mussel to drive while holding down a gear box in poring rain knowing one mistake could be your life. Now that is raw talent and bravery.
Jim Clark was the greatest of them all...5 mins ahead & lapped the whole field after setting 8th on the grid! The man was just out of this world with his natural driving ability
That’s amazing but still only happened once. Like Perez from went from last to first but will we hail him as the greatest. No. Senna had many exceptional weather drives and so did Schumacher
Nakajima in the slow Lotus at Adelaide 1989?! He started near the back, spun at the first corner, recovered to finish 4th and set fastest lap in the process
Interesting thing about Nakajima, and other Asian drivers back then. They were very slight people, and didn't have the strength required to drive a F1 car for lap after lap, but when it rained, the cars were far easier to drive, lighter steering and less braking required, and that's when they could show their skill.
The best performance of all times was Senna's second place in Monaco with a Toleman in 84. A small team with a not so good car. If the race had one more lap he would have won. But it was suspended due to excessive rain.
No ! It was not suspended by excessive rain.. Jack Ickx suspended the race because Senna was rapudly approach french Alain Prost and would easily surpass him to win the race.
@@Jamo_7811 I know the stats ..you are not discovering anything new to me. However with a decent driver in the other car, for instance Johansson who substituted for Senna and showed that the car was quite compettitive, Toleman would have been much higher in the standings. Senna offcourse contributed a lot to the development and those results, but the car was not bad, otherwise it would not be so compettitve..the chassis was outstanding , designed by a man named Rory Byrne, ring a bell , perhaps?
@@kekepiket9153 so did we praise Aston Martin last year for finishing 7th? Don’t think so. Toleman was a mid field car at best but in the rain senna was in 2nd and gaining on Prost in a mclaren
Horrendous drive he crashed into anything that moved, including taking out Alonso and Hamilton. That was a crazy race, not a particularly impressive performance, without the 6 SC Jenson would have been lapped.
Nate Franco Definitely one of the best drives and surely the best race in modern history, but it wasn’t fully in the wet. He is a master in interchangeable conditions however.
@@arranclark5232 The best in modern history? Are you delusional? Button crashed into Alonso and Hamilton and got lucky there were 6 SCars....Schumacher Hungary 1998, Kimi Suzuka 2005 and Lewis Bahrain 2014 were all better....
Gilles Villeneuve's driving clinic in the rain at the 1979 USA Grand Prix at Watkins Glen in NY State .... it was a victory , as well ....... to me a top 3 drive in the rain of all time ......
His ability in wet weather driving is well documented in all the series he raced in before F-1, but as great as that was his design and mechanical skills in snowmobile racing, his 1974 allouette twin track was designed after his March race car, 2 tracks, inside track disconnected from the drive system by a clutch system hooked to the steering so the outside track would push it through the corners, yes it had breakage problems but at the end of the season when running the well financed factory drivers had a hard time beating it( u tube Gilles radical racer), his 1976 skiroule, I saw it’s first race in Lancaster nh, he dominated all 3 classes, later that winter at races in Montreal and next day Quebec City he and his brother dominated the ski-doo,Polaris and arctic cat race teams, with low budget, under powered, spare parts built super handling sleds.

@FRANCESCO SOLA there's so much wrong with this list. Schumacher Spanish gp drive in 1996 was put in 6th place ffs, yet Damon's in 1994 was no where near as impressive when Benetton got the strategy wrong.

@@marcomolinari94 Bellofs drive was very impressive, but he had a normally aspirated engine, which would've been miles easier to drive in the wet.

That was a great drive by Seb but nowhere near number 1. The Toro Rosso back then was way better than it is now, and it was suited to Monza. Bourdais qualified p4 with it.

I thought Jim Clarks drive in the wet was the greatest of all time. Particularly holding in the gear for most of the race.
Senna was undoubtedly the wet weather master, best driver ever to drive in wet conditions 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Well, it's doubtful since Schumi is the greatest wet or dry, basically the greatest driver ever .
@Resul Baggio in a top gear interview,schumacher himself said that for him senna is no.1 .you argue with schumacher if you want.🤣🤣🤣
@@florencemodina6293 yeah because he was gonna say he was number one right? Almost every athlete says the same thing. Lol were you born yesterday?
@@resulnaki Cheater? Where was he in Donington '93? How many poles while Senna was alive? Won title in '94 with illegal car (we all know how) against Damon who was much slower than Senna.. All those mid-90's titles with later sorted out Williams would be Senna's had he survived and Schumi's statistics would look much different. Not to mention Shcumi's teammates which he choose to watch his back, easier competitors and many more things.. So maybe best for you but for most of us-not
@@resulnaki yeah right
Senna, The Rain Master! #1
You guys are missing Ayrton Senna in Monaco 1984, that race was his first win in F1, they took it away from him.
I must say these drivers definitely deserve deep respect. Superior skills. The dry track is dangerous let alone the pouring rain. Slipping into it. Also these tracks are so darn impressive. Thumbs up!!! Lotta mist in rear. Well done.
Racing in rain is fun!!! Did a spin and win on slicks for karting ! For .005 was greatest driver ever! 😀 To do it in a F1 car must be insane!
How could you forget Ayrton Senna's incredible race onboard of a limited Toleman car at Monte Carlo on 1984. He was about to win when he was at second and approaching to Prost under heavy rain and they decided to end such amazing race.
Senna the best! Ever! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Yes. Much much better than our current "champ".
As a Schumacherfan. True that
LOL, Senna and Hamilton in wet conditions?? Anyone betting on Hamilton better buy a lottery ticket. More chance of winning. Hamilton is okay in wet, but far from being great, except when he hits the right tire strategy. Which happened twice. But other than that, many drivers are better than him in wet. Which was pretty clear in Turkey 2020, when he was horrible during the wet phase, and only returned to the top after the track got dry again. If it kept raining he wouldn't have a chance.
BTW, in Japan 2007 it was Kovalainine who made it from 12th place to 2nd place, in a much slower car. If he had a few more laps maybe he'd end up 1st. And even if he wouldn't Webber certainly would. As he was a lot faster per lap than both LH and Heiki. Fortunately for LH, Vettel took care of Webber, hitting him from behind and completely demolishing his car. So.... I'd say it was more luck than skill. But for Kovalainen it was definitely skill, jumping from 12th place to 2nd, ending only 8 secs behind LH. In a lot slower car.
Jim Clark is literally in this video and you’re saying Senna is the best😂😂

I respect all good pilots but Senna was incredible when he drove in the rain...
Senna was spectacular in the rain just about every single time. He was incredible.

@@TEGRULZ In dry weather, the "illegal" Tyrrells were the slowest cars on the grid, weren't they. How can such a slow car perform that way in the wet? Ask Brundle, he was driving the same car as Bellof.

@@sergun5804 hahaha lol 😂😂
Driving left hand only in a car that was all mussel to drive while holding down a gear box in poring rain knowing one mistake could be your life. Now that is raw talent and bravery.
Jim Clark's drive is super impressive around Spa as back then it was the 14km circuit not the 7km one we are used to these days.
Never heard this story about Clark, arguably it shouldve been no. 1.
Completely agree
Was looking for that comment absolutely agree
No, no. 1 is pretty clear Stewart. Nothing is nearly as impressive as this race performance
How is that better than Stewart, Nurburgring alone is dangerous, then add to it rain, fog and driving against your will.
Shame we don't have footage from back then. Would have been amazing to see Stewart on the nordschleif in the rain
Yellow helmet, Monaco 1984, Nurburgring 1984- Mercedes-190, Estoril 1985, Donington 1993... Senna the GOAT.
Jim Clark was the greatest of them all...5 mins ahead & lapped the whole field after setting 8th on the grid! The man was just out of this world with his natural driving ability
That’s amazing but still only happened once. Like Perez from went from last to first but will we hail him as the greatest. No.
Senna had many exceptional weather drives and so did Schumacher
@@Jamo_7811 Clark has done many others incredible race, wouldn't compare him with perez
Nakajima in the slow Lotus at Adelaide 1989?! He started near the back, spun at the first corner, recovered to finish 4th and set fastest lap in the process
A total joke driver. 😂
Interesting thing about Nakajima, and other Asian drivers back then. They were very slight people, and didn't have the strength required to drive a F1 car for lap after lap, but when it rained, the cars were far easier to drive, lighter steering and less braking required, and that's when they could show their skill.
Did I miss Jenson Buttons win Canada 2011 or was it not in there, that was one of his greatest drives!
Senna was from another world. Master!
The best performance of all times was Senna's second place in Monaco with a Toleman in 84. A small team with a not so good car. If the race had one more lap he would have won. But it was suspended due to excessive rain.
No ! It was not suspended by excessive rain.. Jack Ickx suspended the race because Senna was rapudly approach french Alain Prost and would easily surpass him to win the race.
Toleman was not a bad car
@@kekepiket9153 Toleman finished 7th in the constructors in 84. Prosts mclaren won both championships driven by niki Lauda
@@Jamo_7811 I know the stats ..you are not discovering anything new to me. However with a decent driver in the other car, for instance Johansson who substituted for Senna and showed that the car was quite compettitive, Toleman would have been much higher in the standings. Senna offcourse contributed a lot to the development and those results, but the car was not bad, otherwise it would not be so compettitve..the chassis was outstanding , designed by a man named Rory Byrne, ring a bell , perhaps?
@@kekepiket9153 so did we praise Aston Martin last year for finishing 7th? Don’t think so. Toleman was a mid field car at best but in the rain senna was in 2nd and gaining on Prost in a mclaren
Jenson button 2011 Canada? I must have missed it bc surely it was on there right?
Horrendous drive he crashed into anything that moved, including taking out Alonso and Hamilton. That was a crazy race, not a particularly impressive performance, without the 6 SC Jenson would have been lapped.
Nate Franco Definitely one of the best drives and surely the best race in modern history, but it wasn’t fully in the wet. He is a master in interchangeable conditions however.

DIDN'T GILLES VILLENEUVE HAVE A WET ONE LAP QUALIFYING LAP 11 SECONDS FASTER THAN THE SECOND PLACE CAR 1979 ? MAYBE WORTH AN HONORABLE MENTION .
when the usual difference between pole and last place on the grid is 1 too 2 seconds
he also was a legand in the rain
Gilles Villeneuve's driving clinic in the rain at the 1979 USA Grand Prix at Watkins Glen in NY State .... it was a victory , as well ....... to me a top 3 drive in the rain of all time
......
His ability in wet weather driving is well documented in all the series he raced in before F-1, but as great as that was his design and mechanical skills in snowmobile racing, his 1974 allouette twin track was designed after his March race car, 2 tracks, inside track disconnected from the drive system by a clutch system hooked to the steering so the outside track would push it through the corners, yes it had breakage problems but at the end of the season when running the well financed factory drivers had a hard time beating it( u tube Gilles radical racer), his 1976 skiroule, I saw it’s first race in Lancaster nh, he dominated all 3 classes, later that winter at races in Montreal and next day Quebec City he and his brother dominated the ski-doo,Polaris and arctic cat race teams, with low budget, under powered, spare parts built super handling sleds.
In another dimension: A class of his own, on a different level: SENNA DONINGTON 1993
*Senna Lenda Eterna!*
Max in Brasil looked like when you play F1 game on 40 % difficulty
I mean...
Fresh tyres
Juan Manuel Correa 1. The tyres weren’t ‘Fresh’ they were 3 laps old 2. Fresh tyres don’t give a big advantage in the rain, why? Because safety!
Jim Clark definitely deserved that No. 1 spot.
Imagine driving on the Nordschleiffe back in the 60s in the rain
So did Jackie Stewart... in worst conditions
