  • In previous video we showed that Senna's steering column was damaged as Aqua Mineralli, lap 6. In this video we will investigate the last 60 seconds until the fatal accident to see whether the steering failure was out of a sudden or it was an accident waiting to happen. #senna #imola #tamburello

    The question in my mind is: How can a driver like Senna, that had this huge sensibility for everything that happens inside the car, not notice something so serious and dangerous? This is very strange.

    It’s an interesting analysis you have produced here. I’ve watched a few different videos on here of the moments leading up to the accident, up to the on-board footage which cuts out right before the car impacts the wall.
    For a long time I disagreed with the broken column theory and put it down to the car’s handling being uncontrollable due to the tires not being up to temperature. But looking at it further, I think that both may be true and one directly contributed to the other.
    When you compare all of the footage from the qualifying, warm up and the race, it’s clear something significant has changed on lap 6 (first racing lap footage) going into lap 7 compared to the previous footage from qualifying and the morning warm up…The car is bouncing around a lot more, to the point where the camera is lining out and even cutting out completely multiple times. The ride looks awful and like Ayrton is really trying to hold on to it.
    My best guess is that this change in ride is down to the tire pressures and temps still being very low due to the time spent behind the terribly underpowered Opel Vectra safety car after the start line accident. Senna at one point even pulls up alongside it, waving his fist and yells with his visor up at Charlie Whiting (in the passenger seat) to go faster, who shouts back that they can’t…
    Even the safety car driver was starting to panic that the totally unsuitable safety car was being driven too hard just to keep the F1 cars at a pace where they could anywhere near maintain tire pressure and they’d go off the circuit…In fact, when the safety car eventually made it back to the pits at the restart, the brake pedal was nearly at the floor, all the dash warning lights were on and it wouldn’t restart again. They literally drove the Vectra safety car so hard to keep up that they killed it.
    Then add in the factor that both of the Williams were probably running a fairly heavy fuel load (the cars of Senna and Hill can be seen to be the only ones of about 10 seen in the camera shot actually sparking and bottoming out earlier in the lap).
    All of the added vibration created by these factors would certainly have put a lot more stress on the modified steering column and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if this had started to fail halfway through lap 6.
    The most interesting footage is the last 5 seconds or so before the accident going into Tamburello. As Senna enters the corner, you see the car really flex over a series of bumps on the inside of the corner. On the third or fourth bump, there’s a strong vibration which shakes the camera heavily and the car bottoms out and twitches to the right (you can see this from Schumacher’s in-car footage behind if you look carefully). I believe at this point the column is literally hanging by a thread, so to speak…Senna then immediately attempts to correct and I believe the load from this probably caused it to snap completely.
    You can see Senna’s helmet in the left mirror. At this moment you see his head react to something and he looks down, or possibly being forced down by the sudden change of G-force as the column breaks…you see his full visor in the mirror for a moment (as opposed to the base of the helmet as previously) and you no longer see any arm or hand movements on the wheel as the car goes straight on.
    I don’t think he knew the column was damaged a lap earlier. I think the car was handling so unexpectedly poorly at that point due to the tires not being up to temp that he wouldn’t have known what the hell was even going on until perhaps 1 - 2 seconds before the impact, at most.

      don´t u think Senna was incautious? he surely knew the steering collumn was improvised on his own demands, and was the car was too tricky to be ridden, he could have been more cautious and stop. Words from a Brazilian here.

      @@TravisSept79 I don’t think I’d say he was incautious or reckless. No more so than many other drivers would have been at the time, at least.
      I think you have to look at these things in context…It’s 1994 and Ayrton has had his worst ever start to a season (largely through reliability issues and no fault of his own). He’s a highly driven and aggressive, but talented driver who is willing to give anything to win again.
      He has moved from McLaren into a Williams that isn’t what he expected it to be, his main contender is Schumacher driving a Benetton (which Ayrton by this point believed - probably correctly - was using banned driver aids that the Williams didn’t have). If you look at the in car footage, he is desperately trying to hold onto that Williams ahead of 2nd place Schumacher, who probably isn’t working half as hard to keep the Benetton on the road due to the car being so much better than the Williams as this point in the season and his driver aids that Senna didn’t have. You can see from the footage that Senna’s Williams is bouncing around all over the place, unlike in practice or qualifying.
      Did Ayrton push it too hard? Possibly. But that’s the reason he won three world championships. The fact that he drove that way and had that kind of motivation to win at all costs is what separates a truly fantastic driver from simply a good driver like his teammate Damon Hill at the time.
      You also have to remember that a modification to a steering column in that way was something that teams did back then. A lot has changed in the last 30 years since. Ayrton probably had no reason to suspect that a fairly routine bit of work (at the time) would have been done poorly and failed on him. He also was a victim of bad luck in my opinion - had the start line crash not happened his tires would probably have been up to temperature much quicker and the car would have handled way better and bounced around far less, meaning the welded column may have lasted longer or not even failed at all.
      You know how air crash investigators often say a plane crash never usually happens for any one reason? It’s usually multiple reasons that come together. If any one of those things didn’t happen, the crash probably wouldn’t have happened. Same goes for Aryton imo…
      Sorry for the long reply. Felt like I needed to explain my answer fully as it’s complex.

      @@TravisSept79 No problem. I mean, it’s just my opinion as someone who has watched the sport since those days and learned a lot about it, but I’m sure other people will think differently to me. Ayrton’s battles with Nigel Mansell back in the late 1980’s/early 90’s were the reason I started watching F1, so Senna always has a special place to me.
      I can respect drivers like Schumacher and Prost as being greats also, but Senna had a natural ability to race wheel-to-wheel and race on the edge with all of his heart and soul that they never had in my opinion. It’s great that he is still the hero of Brazil and keep his memory alive there. He was a unique talent.

    Sem dúvida alguma foi a quebra da barra de direção,a improvisação deu lugar a um serviço que teria que ser feito na fábrica da equipe,ou seja,trocar toda a direção do carro,ou invés disso fizeram uma improvisação com uma imenda mal feita e mal SOLDADA,que não resistiu a força da pressão sobre essa imenda,tanto que o carro segue em linha reta por quase 90( noventa ) metros ,no início da curva e ao final da reta dos boxes o carro estava a 320 kms por hora ao entrar na curva TAMBOLLERO e ficar SEM DIREÇÃO,ou seja,quebrou a barra ,SENNA ainda consegue reduzir a velocidade do carro para 207(duzentos e sete) kms por hora, porém,ao bater no muro a essa velocidade a roda dianteira direita que foi a primeira a bater no muro de concreto,soltou-se e veio de encontro ao cokpit, como a cabeça do AYRTON estava jogada para frente por causa da freiada brusca,a roda empurra a cabeça do AYRTON com muita,muita força contra o encosto do cokpit,causando - lhe uma LESÃO NA BASE DO CÉREBRO,além do que o braço da suspensão da roda passou feito uma FLEXA pelo capacete do AYRTON,perfurando o mesmo e tbm a sua TÊMPORA DIREITA,este corte no capacete foi de aproximadamente 6( seis) centrimentros,causando perda de MASSA CEREBRAL e muito, muito SANGUE,o que acarretou em MORTE CEREBRAL,portanto quando a equipe médica chegou ao local do acidente, após 1( um) minuto e 40( quarenta) pós batida,o AYRTON já estava MORTO,apenas continuava com o coração ainda batendo,a equipe médica apenas fez manobras médicas para manter o coração do AYRTON ainda batendo para que não fosse aclamado que ele morreu na pista,portanto a causa - morte foi a quebra da SOLDA MAL FEITA que não aguentou a pressão da PISTA.🤦

After the accident the steering wheel and part of the column can be seen next to the car.

    What does left for Hill to say… when you’re lapped after 2/3 by you teammate (who is new in the team) in brasil, then constantly gets more than half a second in every qualifying. The only way to justify yourself in this tragic situation is to say that Senna was overagressive, risked too much and bla bla. “I also could drive this fast but i was more carefull”. Totall bullshit. All drivers said that in tamburello you can go out only because of mechanic failure. Steering failed 100 per cent, it was confirmed by Italian prosecutors and trial, there was fatigue on the metal. Senna hit on brakes so hard, that indicates that he realized he had no steering. Because drivers before hiting brakes so hard, try to realize the problem - front/rear suspencion and so on. When you hit it so hard it means no steering. It’s obvious, there’s nothing to discuss more. Great video!

      The Italian courts are hardly credible, I remember that they took 3 Years to exonerate Patrese for something he didn't do! Nobody will know for sure what really happened, but the FW16 at that time for a very nervous car than Senna and Hill did not have the greatest amount of confidence in and was known for behaving in a manner that would vary lap to lap. Senna was taking the quicker, but bumpier line through tamburello whereas Hill was taking the smoother, but less direct line. Given the nervousness of the car, coupled with the low ride height and type pressures and forums with FOM staff who examined the steering column, the generally view is it is likely he lost a massive amount of downforce and above all, very very unlucky with the angle the car hit the wall. As the years have passed, there seems to be more and more people looking - some who never saw Senna race - to find a reason that he didn't make a mistake. I watched him from FF1600 and he made plenty of mistakes. Saying it was 'driver error' does sound harsh, but I would describe it that he was simply driving too fast for the conditions. Cars have a limit and Senna has frequently drove beyond them. If you consistently do that, then sooner or later you're going to have a big one and sadly for Senna it was his last.

    The crash from the outside always looked like a broken steering column. The wheels snap straight in the middle of the corner and he goes straight into the wall with no evidence at all that Senna made any attempt to catch the car. If he lost control he would have spun the car or there would have been visible corrections as he attempted to avoid the wall. No accident has ever looked like this one where in the middle of a corner a driver just goes straight off into the wall with no apparent attempt to save the car. We'll never know for sure but it's always seemed certain to me that the steering column broke in the middle of the corner.

Also the rather hard "pink tape cuts" throughout the footage, especially on final bump before loosing signal is not THAT drastically seen in other cockpit footage from other grand Prix's in that year. It almost looks like to me that someone thought "lets build these in so that people get convinced that the camera failed in the last second completely and that's why the footage cuts off"
    Would be interested about your take on this one.
    Great video once again, you're the best! 😊
    I hope that some day someone finally can do a proper simulation. With the tools we have nowadays, that would be easily possible.

    Schumacher said Senna was bottoming badly and nearly lost it on the previous lap. I believe the car bottomed so badly that it lost ground effect and stepped out. Senna reacted with a reflex correction and as the rear wheels regained traction the car followed the direction of the front wheels which were still under correction. The car was then a high speed on the grass heading for the barrier. Senna was unable to steer or slow the car before impact. Berger, Piquet and Alesi suffered similar accidents but survived uninjured.

    If you watch the whole video of the crash from the Senna movie you can see him correct to the right just as he leaves the track (using the same button as a reference). Exactly what the data released shows and also what you would expect from the car bottoming hard at that part of the track. What you don't see is the wheel turn hard to the left as you would expect from the total failure of the steering.
    Also, as shown here that wheel adjustment was also not good and probably was flexing enough to cause Senna issues, and likely that it broke as well during the crash, or even during the correction. Both things can be possible. However steering column failure doesn't totally match all the facts.
    End of the day, cars have mechanical issues ALL the time. The exact reason for leaving the track is almost irrelevant compared to what happened to Senna during the accident. The changes made post accident (to the cars and tracks) should have been the focus and not the silly criminal trial that resulted.

    • @gmay8493
      @gmay8493 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think the criminal trial revolved around the wrong thing imo…I mean, you can’t really hold engineers and mechanics responsible for something like that, especially when it was Ayrton who requested the adjustment himself and the fact that the column may never even have failed in the first place if numerous other factors hadn’t happened (assuming that it even failed prior to the accident in the first place).
      Now, if they’d brought a trial against whoever knowingly told the safety car driver to use a car they’d raised concerns about previously regarding it’s speed and suitability in keeping the F1 tires up to temp, then that might actually be something…in fact, the driver requested the Porsche 911 from the Supercup race organizers who allowed him to use it, but while he was transferring the equipment from the Opel to the Porsche, he was told by either someone at the FIA or local race organizers (it’s never clearly stated by him) that he had to use the Opel for sponsorship reasons and to put everything back in there.
      That decision contributed to Senna’s accident as much as anything else in my opinion.

    La telemetría indica que estuvo ejerciendo presión a la dirección hasta el final. Así q no estaba rota en carrera. Es normal q si la barra estaba soldada se rompiera por mismo impacto accidente.
    Algo se fastidió más si cabe en el coche y me inclino a pensar que está más relacionado con el embrague ya que en la telemetría tiene unos cambios bruscos y la fuerza del acelerador también cambia a mayor, lo mismo que primero baja y después sube (la frenada)
    Creo q el coche llegó a correr por encima de sus posibilidades y no respondió bien, y si lo hizo fue a destiempo, cuando ya no había remedio por estar muro delante.
    Una rotura de embrague perjudica también la dirección coche. Ayrton Senna baja un poco la cabeza antes de chocar, alguna décima de segundo después del último chispazo del coche por contacto suelo y después de que unas piezas negras salieran desde su coche y rodaran por el suelo (esto se vio desde coche Shumacher)

    I don't agree with your conclusion. Everybody who are a professional driver have a very high sensitivity with the steer, pedal and balance of the car. If the steering is loose like you said, Senna will feel it before the accident.
    The real cause is a rear suspension failure. After the first rear bump (viewing from Schumacher onboard cam), the rear suspension breaks and Senna's lose control. Even Nelson Piquet, after Senna's death, said that's the only possible cause for the accident.
    The steering button position analysis is cool, but the low quality of the generated image and the high vibration compromise your conclusion.

Lis causa danos ao afirmar uma falta de informaçães como essas Senna na verdade foi vítima não foi porque ele foi e porque não seguiu alinha reta não ele foi reto inexplicávelmente reto e isso nem pode nos mudarmos nossa história e nem o dia que aconteceu 😃😃 entendeu e também ele não foi por pressão de jeito nenhum 😔😕 de maneira nenhuma tanto que ele não pagaria por sua imprudência no volante e nem por causa de indeposblidade e por pressão de jeito nenhum tanto que ele não pagaria pir uma coisa que não envolveria nisso ele morreu porque pelo colega estava fazendo a mesma coisa que ele e que ele foi espatifado no muro 🧱 assim que como ele Senna não e um cara suicida não de jeito nenhum e melhor pensar direitinho mesmo com todas sua experiência ele sabia o poderia acontecer fazer viu não adianta argumentar tudo e qualquer coisa não viu e isso vamos e respeitar a memória do cara se tem alguma sugestões e so e mas com raiva o Dio que isso e uma sem graça chato da gente ficar argumenando uma coisa pôr e um braço show respeito a sua família 😁☺️😃 gostei do vídeo as imagens ficaram muito bons isso mostrar muito bem como Senna tentou.faze alguma coisa alí no carro mas não teve e tempo se estivesse pneus e caixas de brita eles estavam bem vivos até até próxima semana viu um feliz páscoa para todos Deus abençoe todos vocês e valeu 💯 gostei viu muito obrigado show de acelera Ayrton Senna do Brasil 🏎️🏁🏆🏆🏎️🏁🏆🏆🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️ 🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️ tantã tantã e Senna do Brasil 🇧🇷🏁 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁

    it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out... the steering wheel is all over the place for one whole lap.. F1 should be held accountable and got away with murder. still, it was the fastest lap with a doomed wheel. this gay wasn't from this world...

    Car position / suspension on heavy breaking zones deceleration and low breaking acceleration. This analysis is not correct and misleading
