What was more amazing to me is that he could tell before a race if he was going to win it having optimised this car with the most perfect setup before the race th-cam.com/video/AJvZ56Kolec/w-d-xo.html
Heel-toe downshifting all gears in one shot at all corners and short upshift from 4th to 5th gear on the front and back straights due to rear wheels spinning apparently
No, Heel-toe downshifting all gears in one shot (e.g. 5 to 2) with more throttle rev up than normall instead of downshifting all gears sequentially like other drivers.
Only Prost was able to make F1 seem like a sunday ride

Quel fantastique circuit !
Oui, rapide avec du relief
Whoa, thank you for these rare footages! I'm a fan of Alain too, so it's such a pleasure

Solo Prost è stato capace di vincere GP e mondiali con 4 auto differenti... the best of all time!
These AFAVA films never get old.
Amazing
Professor Prost.
Practical classes.
I hope I will live to see when neural networks generate a 360-degree circular view from these videos.
That would be awesome to see.
I piloti di adesso se la farebbero addosso con queste macchine
It was good battle with Nelson.
Agreed, I will post something hot between the two at some point later in time and not the infamous passing at Zandvoort
Do you have any onboard footage of long beach? I've always wanted to know how was to drive there
There is a very good one already with Patrick Depailler driving aggressively th-cam.com/video/wDLuA0fQ1Mw/w-d-xo.html
Patrick was awesomely skilled. The footage of him in Montreal driving through standing water is insane.
Is that throttle lag on the downshift ? , it sounds like a real pig to drive.

We’re the box’s not sequential then ?
@@merrick495 Yes, but he was doing this partly to minimize wear and tear on gearbox which were not that reliable back then.

Thanks for enlightening me .
A racing driver that had mechanical sympathy . 👍
