- When you think of Ayrton Senna, you think of his legendary rivalry with Alain Prost in Formula 1. However, few know the story of his first ever major rivalry which came in the 1983 British Formula 3 Championship with Martin Brundle. This is a rivalry that went down to the very last race of the season and a story about how, against all odds, Brundle took the fight to Senna in a way that nobody could’ve predicted. Joining me to tell this tale is the legendary Kiwi, Josh Revell who was kind enough to contribute his voice and his writing to this video.

British F3...the series which never should've been killed off. Yes, we now have BRDC F3 but it isn't quite the same.
How is it different may I ask?
@@triplecrownracing different organisers, no longer on the same level as the 'top' F3 series, and no longer runs to the same technical regulations as F3 (or F3R for that matter)
Oh yeah that makes sense
Great Video. Just bought a Ralt identical to Senna's to race against Brundle's car in Classic F3
I'm glad you enjoyed and that sounds pretty cool! Thanks for tuning in!
Brilliant season - I remember following it race by race, in the US via the top US racing magazine of the era, On Track. Great summary guys, thx!
Glad you enjoyed! Hope we did it justice. Thanks for tuning in!
This is a really nice collaboration, actually! The story was told well, and you complimented each others' styles. I'd love to see more from you guys.
Well Josh said he was open to doing more stuff. Maybe at some point in the future! Thanks for turning and in glad you enjoyed.
Lies again? Stamford Bridge Singapore Brazil
Very nice narration, thumbs up! :)
I appreciate it! Thanks for tuning in!
Fantastic work chaps, the voice over was really good and the research showed. Top notch! Subscribed and will watch out for your videos in future. Nice work!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for tuning in and welcome aboard.
Great Video!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
im currently doing a documentary on classic f3, i was wondering if you had any archive footage of the series and the drivers?
Pretty much everything you see in this video is pretty much the absolute maximum I could find. Footage from these types of racing series from around this time period is ridiculously scarce and it probably took me a few hours at least just to be able to find the stuff in this video. Sorry I couldn't be much of a help. Thanks for tuning in though!
Good content
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
Superb content
Thank you and thanks for tuning in!
Not a Word of a lie i started reading Sennas biography and i recently finnished that exact chapter talking about that exact season, plus it is a brilliant read if you like any form of open wheel motorsports.
You can tell im a fan of him
Nice! Well I hope we weren't just rehashing information you already knew. Thanks for tuning in.
nah i is just really good topic to make video on. thanks for the content
Senna had an engine with one less update opposite brundle, so I’m sure that could’ve been mentioned at some point
error @ 5:07 4/1000s not 4/10s as stated in the audio.
This is not really accurate, though, as the reason why Brundle could actually match Senna was because Eddie Jordan was having his team's (Brundle drove for Jordan in F3) Novamotor engines tuned in Italy, whereas Senna's were being tuned in Italy. After Senna caught wind of this, he flew himself personally, to Italy and had his engines tuned there as well. This all happened before the last race. After that, the balance was restored. To affirm that Brundle was anywhere near Senna is almost blasphemous. Martin Brundle was a solid driver, Senna, however, was out of this world, so much so that there's been no driver able to match his feats since, and dare I say before he came along as well. But, fantastic job on the rest of the story. Loved every minute of it.
Hi , interesting above / I was racing my Alfa GTV6 in 1982 /83 - and i think in 83 had forgotten to my bring medical certificate to Donnington -----a driver had died at the wheel the week before at Silverstone, so the Donnington establisment were freaking out and wouldnt let me drive .----( way before the days of emails ) ---------our mechanic knew Eddie Jordan and so Martin Brundle agreed to drive the Alfa , but after a rainy practice in the unfamiliar car, where Gerry whistled past scraping doorhandles + nearly took him out / he changed his mind to concentrate on being competitive with Senna . we were all pretty young and i remember Senna couldnt speak much English, but i stll have an image of him sitting on a rusty trailor mudguard whilst Martin was being strapped into the Alfa :) Norris Miles
