Senna was like the michael Jordan/Michael jackson of F1. He transcended the sport , I remember where I was and what I was doing when he passed. I was playing on my BMX when my uncle came down to tell me and my older brother with tears in his eyes . He just said: Senna died. Never seen my uncle cry before or since. The majority of my family were in rally so had a deep connection to racing. Man ....Senna was something different.

Senna, os domingos nunca mais foram os mesmos sem você. Eu tinha 10 anos e lembro vividamente até hoje aquele domingo. Eu assisti a corrida e vi o acidente ao vivo. Quanta saudade. Quando lembro do Senna e do ‘tema da vitória’ encho os olhos de lagrima.

Nigel Mansell 👍 I was a little boy in 1987 at Silverstone... Daddy loved Mansell so we bought tickets and went to our local British GP. That sunday Nigel became my racing hero fighting against Nelson Piquet. I will never forget his big british win at our home GP the great Nigel Mansell. Front page of the Times Telegraph and Guardian Newspapers on Monday morning day after the race. I was a paperboy 11yrs old and read the papers monday morning.

Moff lets the cat out of the bag at the 42 min mark. Most casual observers weren't aware the big dollar Holden teams were using fully imported NASCAR style Chev crate race motors at this stage. All the Ford teams were using these imports. Both the Chev & Ford crate engines were capable of churning out well over 600 Brake HorsePower straight out of the box. Larry Perkins was heavily invested in genuine Holden V8 power throughout the entire '93 ATCC season. While the big money Holden teams got their Chev engines settled in, Larry persevered with his beloved Holdens. By the time Bathurst rolled around in October, all the big teams were quietly confident their Chevs could outlast, outrun, outperform & beat Larry's old Holden. It didn't quite pan out that way. Larry had busied himself all year by heading off to Holden's engine foundary with some very interesting ideas. He asked the pattern makers to cast him up some thicker blocks & heads which he believed would help make the Holden stronger & also allow him to redesign the porting to make even more horsepower than any successful race winning Holden had ever had before. Larry's ideas worked (as usual). Those Chev powered Commodores ran strong at Bathurst in 1993. So did the Falcons. Larry had solid engineering on his side with just a tiny splash of good fortune. His 1993 Holden powered VP Commodore whalloped allcomers including the Chevs & his '93 VP was the last car to win at Bathurst with a Holden V8 under the bonnet. This fabulous victory ended the very successful reign of the Holden V8 at Bathurst after first arriving in 1974 with the L34 Torana. The L34, the A9X & the early Commodores with Five Litre Holden Power won more Bathursts than any other engine during that period. The Falcons all ran 351 Clevelands from 1974 until the advent of V8 Supercars allowed crate motors. The Camaros ran 350 Chevs. No Chev ever beat a Holden V8 at Bathurst & very few Clevos or Windsors ever beat them either. Thankfully, Larry stayed with his Holdens & proved to the world one more time in 1993 just how good Holden's little V8 really was even when it was absolutely surrounded by big dollar much fancied specialised imported race engines. By 1994, CAMS stipulated Chev engines in all new Holden V8 SuperCars... Funny bout that. Thankyou Larry. Love your work.

Senna was a racing animal and God at the same time. I remember perfectly the Square meter i was standing when i heard he died. I still cry ..
@alexmear5096Ай бұрын
I know for a lot of people they want to see their favorite racing driver be able to retire, but I also think that dying doing what a race driver loves is also a fine way to leave the world, despite the tragedy

Lost count how many times ive watched this vídeo. I was born in Brazil in the 80s. I remember Sundays watching F1. The music that would play on tv when a Brazilian driver would win (respect to Piquet also). Football nation would stop for Senna. Now living in the UK, I can recognise even more how many people he touched across the globe. Cried my eyes out when he died. Still makes me cry today. Thank you Airton.

2 points 1. When he stopped when Weidlinger crashed he didn't just 'help', the driver was unconscious with foot flat on the throttle and the engine running. Senna hit the kill switch and stopped the thing exploding. 2. The lap from 5th to 1st at Donnington was on slicks
@noirrain60052 ай бұрын
It wasn’t weidlinger, it was Erik comas. I would add a third point. His first win in Brazil after so many tries , he raced and won with a damaged gearbox that would only take 6th gear on the 2-3 last laps. It was insane. He could barely lift himself from the car and it was a herculeous work to lift the trophy at the podium.

8:13 it’s a lie ! The year before Prost hit Senna in Suzuka, leaving the race. Senna continued, changed the wings and was able to surpass Nanini with only 5 laps remaining. Balledtre (French F1) president disqualified Senna. The next year the situation switched, Ballastre again intervened changing the pole position spot (Senna) to favor Prost. Yes, there was a Gap and Prost knew that Senna had nothing to loose, Prost should had been smarter, but he wasn’t. Sweet revenge, unfortunately daddy Ballestre couldn’t nothing about the 2nd time around.
