So was I. Senna's car looked like it was almost bending as it passed through Bridge Corner in that hail of dust and sparks. It was one of the most mind blowing things i've ever seen.
This is what liberty media and the current management of f1 doesn’t understand. Going to a gp back then was a once in a lifetime experience. The sound of the cars, the drivers, the way the cars looked, the atmosphere, modern f1 doesn’t do it justice. Every year I go to a Grand Prix and each year it progressively becomes less memorable, less exciting and less interesting to me. Maybe it’s nostalgia, I don’t think so.
Its not, you just dont feel the atmosphere anymore, you don’t get the impact of a light, heavy powered machine and snappy only being able to be “tamed” by the best drivers of open wheel racing, current F1 is a money machine, rather than a Motorsport that transmites passion true TV and on track experience, like it was before.

Next lap he got the provisional pole. Then Mansell went back to the track and got it back. By the end of the 1991 Williams already had the upper hand and was close to finish the development of the winning car of 92 and 93. The most interesting part to me is right after Senna got the pole and Mansell gives a look to his engineer like he was saying " I told you he would make it possible".
@@dannymason6384 haha, sure bud, sure. Mansel, the mono-title driver who had to drive an "out of this world" almost fully automated car to win his one and only title.
@dannymason6384 Dude, just stop. I love Nigel for many, many reasons, he most definitely had his moments, but at no point did Senna have what you claim at his disposal. What he pulled off here was utter genius. And anyone who REALLY understands knows.
Have a day off son, did you watch it live when Mansell said Mclaren pushed the button and he could not keep up. So he lost and the next year the Williams was the better car and he one.🤔🤣🤣
@@ph4nt0m22You have to be quite a vile person to not recognize the greatness of Mansell. That doesn't mean saying that he was a better driver compared to Senna (I don't think he was), but if you've seen him drive you must understand what a beast he was behind the wheel: ridiculously fast and extremely determined, and one that would have certainly been able to fight with Senna the same way Prost did
It's not far off actually - the 1991 pole lap at Suzuka Japan (Berger in the McLaren in this vid) was only 2.2 seconds slower than the 2014 pole lap there (Rosberg in Mercedes).
The last season where we had the big four, Prost, Senna, Mansell and Piquet all competing at the same time. They were the reason I got interested in F1 in the first place.
Quando ele colocava a cabeça de lado, podia se preparar que vinha um "temporal". Pura velocidade. Em volta lançada é o melhor de todos os tempos. Imbatível, de longe imbatível. Fico arrapiado revendo suas voltas mágicas. Fantástico!!!
Would have loved if the camera crews could have zoomed out a bit so we could see his lines through the corners. What good is it just zoomed in his helmet the whole way with no frame of reference to the track?

Angles and lower frame cameras. These old cameras shot at around 30 fps. Could be wrong but that's what I've heard. People have incredible ways of up-scaling old footage nowadays.
I was just thinking the same. It's because those cars were much lighter and the tracks bumpier, so they move around a lot, despite the downforce (which is nowhere near what we have now). The engine sound helps too and as WombatXBT said, it's also the cameras as well. Last but not least the drivers were much more exposed so we can see them working the wheel and their heads bouncing around. A modern F1 can probably go 5-6 seconds quicker around this Silverstone layout, but it would'be too planted and smooth to give the impression of speed.
Apples and oranges. The McLarens Hakkinen drove were terrible chassis compared to what Senna had...Senna was better than Hakkinen, but there's no reason to make a false comparison just to prop up Senna or degrade Mika.
@@fiarandompenaltygeneratorm5044 they were good chassis and although the engine was highly un reliable esspeclly with Peugeot 94 it still had a V10 under it. And Mercedes engines 95,96,97 were much better 4 season's to win a single race was to long in my opinion. Even coulthard won 1 race before him. I'm sure if senna drove McLaren 94-97 he most definitely wouldn't have won a championship but would've won multiple race's. 1 race win in 4 season's not good enough
@@soilentgreen7 when we see MV in a Senna/Prost, a Schumacher/Hakinnon or even a Hamilton/Rosberg season, but not in best car, then he may merit such discussion. 1 controversial followed by 2 runaway championships, does not make a goat. Imho of course. The best is yet to come
It’s a possibility. With the car setup so low, it could’ve bottomed out violently and broken the steering column. However, to do this the steering column would had to have been faulty anyway, which it was. F1 did introduce the plank wear and minimum ride height rules after this though.
I was there with my father on that day stud at the exit of Mighty Bridge corner I will remember that day for ever .
great thing to have witnessed.
that is soooooo cool!!

I stopped watching it years ago after the v10s went the cars sound so crap, and for the driver's 🤣🤣🤣🤦♀️🤦♀️🤡🤡
