Bullsht. Close analysis of in-car footage does indeed show Ayrton's arms fly right over just as the car begins flying off the track. The right hand yellow button suddenly appears in view just before the footage cuts out meaning that the steering wheel had suddenly turned through more than 180°. The left hand yellow button had disappeared down to the left and had not come back up.
Adrian Newey, the man who designed the car Senna was driving, gave this quote: ” The honest truth is that no one will ever know exactly what happened. There’s no doubt the steering column failed and the big question was whether it failed in the accident or did it cause the accident? It had fatigue cracks and would have failed at some point. There is no question that its design was very poor. However, all the evidence suggests the car did not go off the track as a result of steering column failure… If you look at the camera shots, especially from Michael Schumacher’s following car, the car didn’t understeer off the track. It oversteered which is not consistent with a steering column failure. The rear of the car stepped out and all the data suggests that happened. Ayrton then corrected that by going to 50% throttle which would be consistent with trying to reduce the rear stepping out and then, half a second later, he went hard on the brakes. The question then is why did the rear step out? The car bottomed much harder on that second lap which again appears to be unusual because the tyre pressure should have come up by then - which leaves you expecting that the right rear tyre probably picked up a puncture from debris on the track. If I was pushed into picking out a single most likely cause that would be it.” Patrick Head blamed driver error for the cause of the crash, a theory also believed by Damon Hill.

@@shepleonard8695the car bottoming out harder the second time they came around to Tamburello only makes sense if he got a puncture which lowered the car, as Newey suggests, because otherwise the car was actually getting higher and should’ve been ever better the 2nd time they approached Tamburello, so, Newey suggests a puncture, BUT, could he really of had a puncture based off the telemetry? Senna managed to go from 310kph to 230kph in the time between leaving the racing line and hitting the wall, and we see that he applied full brake pressure and downshifted twice, now if he really had a puncture, would he be able to scrub off that much speed with one or possibly more tires blown up and dragging and catching along the ground? People say it was a slow puncture so that’s how but that still doesn’t make sense because a slow puncture will still turn into a tire with no air in it, the same result will happen, just not instantly. In fact if a car has one or more punctured tires, it’s actually likely that massive amounts of braking like we saw in Sennas crash would pitch the car into a 360 spinning out of control rather than just travelling in a straight line. While the puncture theory sounds plausible at first, it seems more unlikely upon analysis. The cold tire pressure and subsequent bottoming out theory is BS because that should’ve happened the first lap after the restart not the second according to logic and the fact that the tires heat up more and the car got higher every corner he took. Steering column is the only plausible explanation. Thanks for listening to my TedTalk. Also of course Damon Hill, DC, Patrick Head, and Newey are gonna attribute it to driver error, not driving to the conditions, punctures, bottoming out. Of course they will say this when they work for fucking Williams. Meanwhile we have much more unbiased valid opinions in the form of Nelson Piquet, Alain Prost, Gerhard Berger, Ron Dennis, Michele Alboreto.. these are just some of the guys who are sure it was steering column failure
@@lorenzoboato8818the cable that connected to the gearbox was inside the column which could’ve broke around the cable but not necessarily broke the cable as well so he still definitely could’ve downshifted even if the column was broken
@@Chironimo100 Why? I dare you to rewatch Sennas onboard and then listen to what he says about his hands. Yes, you don't see Sennas hands crossing over, but you see that immediately after the car goes straight, his steering wheel goes left more and more and the car keeps going straight. Everyone can see it, there are enough videos out there.
Steering... Column... FAILURE... To believe that amount of movement is normal, or that the car was designed to have that level of steering wheel movement is ludicrous. RIP Senna... that was the weekend of my 10th birthday and i will never forget the sorrow
Agreed. There's footage in another video demonstrating FW16 steering behaviour in the previous races. The steering column is stable and the steering wheel rotating securely as it should. At Imola footage demonstrates the gradual deterioration of the stability in the steering column with the steering wheel making greater erratic movement as it is being turned.

@pierovittori1076 Not a fable. Telemetry and video clearly shows it was driver error. Senna was trying to drive as fast as Schumacher and couldn't. F1 wasn't going to allow Senna to die from an error, so the broken this or that story was born. Senna always over drove and hit walls trying to out drive his car. 1984 in Dallas is a perfect example, But his excuse for losing control of the car towards the end of the grand prix was that the concrete wall had “moved” and it was that which caused him to crash. Sure it did 😂😂😂.
@@shepleonard8695oh yeah Schumachers car with launch control and spark cutting traction control and an illegal fuel valve that nearly killed like 10 people..
Brundell, finally an F1 driver that has understanding the truth. Too low suspenction set up, the huge bump and the FW16 immediately lose of few millimeters, the asphalt - wells contact - grip. Brakes full on, but just 2 meters of the brake black track. Like the Williams after the bump, leterally jump and than 15 meters, touch again the asphalt but jump again at couse of the speed and fallire Venturi effect. Only 2 meters of brake sign, on 35 or 40 asphalt meters, before finish on the grass and crasch against the low but strong wall. 0:48 what's that, fireworks?. C'omon just abnormal and a scary quantity of sparks, comes out..

It was Williams fault
"I wasn't going anywhere near as quick as ayrton" tamburello was easiest of the easiest flat corner 😂
if you analysed their racing lines, Damon Hill's didn't take Tamburello on the very inside where the bumps really are
