  • Ayrton Senna is one of those legendary F1 drivers who even today's drivers are inspired by. Among all his legendary feats, however, there is one that is not often recounted, but which makes us realize what kind of driver Senna was. That time when he Asphalted anyone in the wet and set the Fast Lap... From the Pits.

      I thought Schumi was slightly better until while I was watching SPEED CHANNEL one night and one of the engineers that always worked for Michael admitted they had found ways to get illegal launch and traction control. That was it for me and it explained Why Senna lapped him in Donnington on this day.

    "I'm a racing driver, I'm I am designed to win races, not to come third, forth or second, Im here to win" Something like that Ayrton Senna said in an interview with Jack Stewart. I can see a lot people talking about the other side of Senna, that he would humilate other drivers by lapping them. I guess those people have no passion in life. Senna breathed formula one. It was his passion. Real sports people don't care who you are, they will destroy you one way or another. Tennis players, soccer player, racing drivers, and the list goes on. They will eat you alive if you give them an opportunity. For instance, Max Vestapen is doing that very same thing. Louis Hamilton did it when he had the best car. Theres no such thing as being nice in sports, specially in formula one. Ayrton Senna was a great human being, he donated 400 milion dollars to charities in Brazil to help underpreviledged childrem. His charity still helps people even today in 2024. That's why he was the best!!

It's a shame I haven't seen any videos in English showing these tributes. Even in his death, Senna taught us to never give up on our dreams and to work hard with lots of love and dedication.

    I think it was the 1989 Adelaide GP, race day was extremely wet.
    On a particular right hand corner many drivers ,including Nigel Manson , spun out doing several 360° s and all eventually crashing into the wall.
    Ayrton spun out on the same corner, he did about 4-5 360°s however he did NOT crash into the wall, he regained control and continued the race. I thought it was sheer luck, but after getting home I watched it in slow motion and couldn't believe what I was seeing; as Ayrton was spinning 4-5 times , all in a mere second or 1.5 sec, as the car's nose pointed towards the wall he applied the brakes, as the rear of the car was heading for the wall he would accelerate hard and you could see the tyres spinning furiously.
    He applied the brake, then accelerated, then brake, then accelerate 5 times in a second or so.
    Ayrton Senna was head and shoulders above all his rivals, he was a true legend of motor racing, may he rest peace and his soul a blessing.

My friends and I were stunned, because it was hard to believe that an Argentine would do that. He asked if we knew the name he was referring to, and we thought together "Pele"? and he said NO, never! and we laughed together 😁😁😁. So he said it was Ayrton, and said that after Ayrton's death, he didn't watch F1 anymore. It keeps reminding me how one person can unite two nations like Brazil and Argentina. By the way, Messi took Ayrton's place, Brazilians love Messi...

      @@resulnaki That's your opinion, but after I have watched both of their careers I think Schumacher is the closest we have ever got to Senna who could dominate in all weather conditions. His performance in the dry is cemented by examples like Monaco 88, Japan 88 (due to technical issues he fell to 16th on the starting grid and fought his way through the grid and passed his teammate to win). His performance with a failed transmisson in 91 Brazil not only was more testemant to Senna's greatness by finishing a race with the car but winning with a gap that was multiple seconds wide against the 2nd place car that had no technical issues at all.

He was already pushing the the God status hit who was just reaching his prime, senna, in fact, he was so afraid of Schumi, he crashed under pressure. Car issues was a bs excuse to protect his memory. Schumacher was senna but better in every aspect, except for the girly drama aryton loved to cause.

    SENNA FOREVER! - I am Brazilian. About the fastest lap around the box there was no mistake. Ayrton premeditated that, because he realized in practice that he could do the fastest lap, inside the box. Watch this video, in Portuguese, with subtitles. "Galvão relembra malandragem e show de Senna em Donington-1993". Senna and Galvao was a very good friends. Greetings from Brazil.

    Super TKS for the video! About the Fastest Lap: Ayton was very close friend with two well known journalists, Galvao Bueno and Reginaldo Leme and both tell that Ayrton checked the rules to make sure that he could pass through the pit with no penalties. That confusion on the McLaren box was real because in that very moment they don’t have a clue what’s going on about any pitstop. They weren’t prepared. Ayrton planned all! Genius and a truly treasure here in Brazil. Once again, TKS!!!

    I am from Argentina and in my country it is not normal to have sports idols from other places. There are exceptions of course, from great legends like Magic Johnson, Nadia Comaneci or Steffi Graf, but with Ayrton Senna something special happens. He is still remembered, loved and mourned by Argentines. Fangio once said that he loved him like a son. He never recovered from his death. Argentina has a sporting rivalry with Brazil, but there are Brazilians so special that they touch the heart of difficult people like us. It also happens with Guga Kuerten or Ronaldinho. And with people from other fields, such as art, politics or science.

    Here's another Senna record that CAN be broken, which might make it better because it still has not been.
    Monaco is widely considered to be the track where the driver matters the most, where his skill can make the difference instead of usually the car making the difference.
    At this track Senna still holds the record for the most wins, 6. And that is only from 10 chances. If you look even closer, he nearly won that race 2 other times.
    That would make 8 out of 10 tries. Hard to imagine. 6 of 10 is still the best there has ever been. This is a fantastic example of why Senna is still considered the best ever pure driver of Formula One.

    Senna destroyed Prost, albeit Prost past his best, at Donington 1993. The men he overtook won a combined 12 championships between them.
    He did not make the most pit stops though - Hill made 6 and Prost 7.
    This was also back in the days before pit lane speed limits, making it even less likely to be beaten - I'm pretty certain he took the lap record from a Group C Peugeot and that last generation of group C cars had at least mid-grid speed for F1 too.

    Realmente, GP Brasil e GP Europa de 1993 são duas das melhores corridas de Ayrton Senna. Sobre o belo vídeo, vale destacar alguns pontos:
    1. Ayrton optou por pneus slick nessa corrida, devido à chuva intermitente. Em alguns momentos da corrida, havia um trilho seco na pista que permitia o uso desses pneus.
    2. Em uma entrevista após a corrida, Senna mencionou que sua passagem pelo pit lane, e consequentemente a volta mais rápida da corrida, foi um teste. Ele afirmou que, se necessário, iria ultrapassar Prost cortando a última curva utilizando o pit lane.

    You are correct, sir that a fastest lap through the pits is a safe record. I’ve always admired Senna’s skill in the wet. The other notable race in the wet was the 1963 Belgian GP at Spa, the old 14 km configuration. Jim Clark started 8th, passing everyone ahead of him for the lead, then lapped all but Bruce McLaren to win with a margin of 4:54; nearly 5 minutes ahead of P2. He also had the gear lever in place when using 5th gear. 😮
