      it's not missing in the sense "friend" but more like missing Ayrton to tell the true story about them. because a lot have been said about Prost in a bad way and Prost would love to restore the facts. even though i think Prost minimize few things that are important, i also think he doesn't get enough praise for others. and that's what drive Prost sad. the truth is not really what we all know about them. because we have to agree ith him on one thing. behind the scene, we don't know what happened beetween the 2. only a very small part.

    As a Brazilian who lived during that F1 years and being a fan of my countryman Ayrton, I should say that Prost's words are completely accurate. Here in Brazil we have an immense respect for "Le professeur", as we used to - and still! - refer to Alain Prost. A talented, fierceful, patient, steel-nerved and awesome driver.
    We brazilians respect, admire and in a certain way love Prost. That's because we know that without Prost there would be no Senna. Not the one we love and deeply miss. Just as Alain seem to too.
    Merci pour tout, professeur.

      Yes, I remember hating Prost due to the rivalry but always respect him for being a great driver. It was a great gesture of Prost coming to Senna's funeral and being a pallbearer. Those years were the best of the F1 with Mansell, Piquet,, Prost, Senna, and in the tail end Schumacher. That will never happen again. 5 World Champions competing against each other. Incredible.

    Senna had his last breakfast with Prost. Prost was doing media coverage on the day and Senna dropped by to the surprise of everyone to talk to him. In the test lap later before the race he gave a warm shout out welcome through the radio, to "my dear friend" Alan. That was why Prost was absolutely devastated after that day, it was as if Senna knew it was time to go and he dropped by for a final goodbye.

      Problem is, Prost already had a rivalry going before Senna even got to F1. Senna was not only 6 years older, he got to F1 5 years before. Prost was a big part of the 80's era, but the biggest part was Piquet. When Prost joined F1, Piquet became WC the following year and was already WC again even before Senna joined and Prost won his first WC. Prost had a massive rivalry with Piquet but it was overshadowed by other awesome drivers with great cars. Niki Lauda for instance. When Senna joined everything changed. Mansell started to get some attention and Prost begun to shine as Piquet grew tired and relaxed. So aside from some performances from Piquet and Mansell, the rivalry that dominated F1 was Senna vs Prost. However, Senna's life can only talk about it. Senna didn't have anything else, but Prost does.
      A Prost documentary should feature his life and not only Senna.

    I am one of the biggest Prost AND Senna fans on this planet, since 1991. One of the great injustices of modern F1 is how little recognition Prost gets today. Prost is an absolute TITAN of F1. I loved the Senna film, but Kapadia did Prost a great injustice by painting him as a cartoon bad guy. And I told him not to during the edit. But he wanted a Hollywood, good guy bad guy plot. It is the only thing (but serious thing) wrong with that movie and only true fans of Beco would know it. Not even his family would, and the movie was screened for Viviane, Leonardo, etc.
    If Senna were alive today he would not tolerate a single bad word said against Prost. I know that 100% in my heart.
    As soon as someone says that they are a Senna fan and says anything bad against Prost, I just know they started watching F1 like 5 years ago at most. They are clueless. They were not there in 1994. They do not know the beginning of that very fragile but beautiful reconciliation/friendship starting out between Ayrton and Alain during Feb-May 1994. I can feel that regret so strongly in Alain during this clip.

      Even the mechanics and engineers at McLaren would acknowledge that when Prost was at his best, when the car was dialed to his liking, he was unbeatable. This is not me saying this. Staff at McLaren have said this. He would beat Senna every time when he was dialed in. There are some drivers like this. When the car is dialed in, and they are in a groove, their performance rises dramatically, to a whole new level. But these same drivers drop off quite a bit when the car is not perfect, when they are not confident. And most of the time the car is not perfect, and the driver is not 100% confident. This is why Prost's performance was so variable. He would dominate one weekend, and finish 4th the next two races. Senna was a different sort of driver. He could drive around problems, and get more out of a care that was not perfect. Senna was better adjusting to new track conditions, hence his dominance in qualifying. Prost had far more fastest laps in races. They were just very different drivers, with different talents.
      In today's cars, with today's engineering, if I had to choose Senna in his prime, or Prost in his prime...I would choose Prost 100%. Over the course of a season today he would get your more points.

    Mr Prost speaking like a true gentleman. He paid a beautiful homage to Ayrton by being present at his funeral and walking next to his coffin, in Brazil. You can feel he really misses him in his words and he probably wonders how close they would have become after they both retired. The "Senna" movie makers could include this clip in a new version, it would be fair to have Prost's point of view. It was one of the best rivalries of all time in sport. I was 12 years old when Senna passed away, watching it live with my dad in a restaurant. It was a sad day. His legacy will live on, through the charity work of Senna's Foundation. The memories will last forever. 💛💚

Being so young and to see your idol parish live on TV, it made a huge impact on me and will always remember those feelings. I am now 37 years old...

    A F-1 dos anos 80-90 atingiu um nível de competitividade jamais visto. Máquinas super potentes com pilotos acima da média. Neste cenário encontramos Lauda, Mansell, Piquet, Prost e Senna. Desse time Ayrton seguramente foi o mais talentoso e obstinado piloto. Desde o início chamou atenção pela sua velocidade e técnica e o topo foi consequência natural do seu trabalho e dedicação a F1. Alain foi seu maior rival e o referencial a ser superado, talvez destruído! Seguramente Senna foi o maior e mais veloz piloto de F1. Seu prematuro e trágico fim impediram a consolidação numérica (em records) do seu talento. Porém, quem o viu correr sabe que se trata do maior piloto de F1 de todos os tempos e sua história demonstra claramente sua grandeza! Senna Eterno!
