Such a psychological game, even then Senna: Most drivers beg for this opportunity but I’m so good Williams can’t even afford me Frank Williams: he begged so we let him play in the car for a bit Senna was an incredible talent for sure, but the sheer insane confidence played a big part
'It certainly isn't a winning car' followed by 'but it'll get me to the winner's platform' haha how sensational. Was an absolute prodigy and he knew it too. Polishing turds into gold nuggets.
What impresses me is how clear and sharpened are his thoughts, even at this point of his career, zero experience in f1 and very young. So self confident and mature.
Basically he was saying that car was not the best but give me a year and I will be wherever I like. With his talent back then he could probably win on anything that felt in F1 class.
1:40 Car swaying left and right under braking, front end goes into the corner, sharp and quick, rear steps out he controls it and in a flash he is out of the corner. So cool to watch 😌
I have followed F1 for the past 53 years, and can count, pretty much on the fingers of one hand the great drivers from the period since I was old enough to watch races, whom I did not see race in front of my eyes: Clark, Brabham, Rindt, Gurney, and perhaps McLaren. I had the privilege of standing one meter from Senna's Toleman when he engaged first gear and left the pits for his first lap around a circuit in Brazil with a F1 car. Back then it didn't mean a whole lot, but in retrospect, it was a bit of a historical moment. It was for a tyre testing in January 1984 at the now defunct Jacarépaguá circuit in Rio. Coincidentally, Emerson Fittipaldi was also testing that day, in a weird car with a Mickey Mouse livery (literally), and I believe it was the last time he drove a F1 in Brazil
Are u saying that past drivers we're more capable than modern day drivers like Hamilton? ...I agree that it was pure driving back in the day but on the other hand I think the modern day driver is a more sophisticated intelligent harder working driver. Senna was amazing and inspired generations.... But senna cars compared to modern era are night and day ....Modern day drivers have evolved along with the cars . LEWIS HAMILTON is the greatest F1 DRIVER to ever grace a race track ...he has came old school to modern and still won 7 titles ....Hamilton will never ever get the recognition he deserves until he's 20 years away from the sport
I've been a fan of F1 FOR OVER 30 YEARS and seen some amazing drivers ...Rosberg.. VETTEL... HAKKINNEN...SCHUMACHER...ALONSO. BUT imo Lewis Hamilton is the greatest driver to ever grace a race track ...Also I don't configure with the racist shit that happens in sport ,but I think F1still finds it hard to accept that the greatest ever is mixed race.
Ron Dennis offered a contract to Senna in ‘82 if I’m not wrong, according to a Brazilian biography, but Senna refused to sign it because he would assume a role as a test driver. Ron became very upset back then saying that any driver in the world would sell his mother to get such that chance, but Ayrton wanted to be a full-time F1 driver.
F1 lost so much with his death, imagine how valuable he would have been for the sport after retirement. His awareness about the sport even as a rookie is amazing, I'm positive he would have reached a big position at FIA, probably president.
Incredible. I didn't know he tested for both Williams and Mclaren before signing for Toleman. And he went faster than they'd ever gone, for both teams! Imagine if he'd have been driving for either since 1984, instead of scrapping away in backmarkers. How the history books might have looked different.
It is incredible how he aware he was of his position in formula 1 as a rookie.... like he could have pushed for a seat at williams or mclaren but in the end he decided to go to toleman to show off his skill he might could have not shown with a stronger car... He would have been maybe 5 or 6 times world champion if there wasn't the crash in imola
He could have been championship contender in ‘85 and ‘86, if it weren’t for Lotus unreliable cars that he drove + some silly mistakes. However Senna said he needed to grow up as a driver to learn how to be a serious contender, and according to myself, also how to play his cards politically speaking A.K.A. how he stayed at Lotus for ‘87 being able to move to Ferrari, because of Honda engines, and a chance to use them as a bridge to jump into McLaren in ‘88.
Imagine if he had driven for Williams or McLaren in that era - we might have been looking after so many more titles. Toleman and Lotus were never title contenders in that era.
goddaymn, so amazing to see the conviction with which he speaks, yes if you saw it at the time it would sound arrogant but by god did he back it up, and in his own mind he is only being truthful
he actualy won the race in toleman in monaco. but they predicted this will happen so stopped the race suddenly even if conditions were same since long time
0:38 It's kind of unsettling how seeing a non-paralyzed Frank Williams makes you feel... he really did put his heart and soul into F1, and we are all enriched for it
Yeah the last statement was so true. The little turbo charged Toleman got Ayrton on the podium in more than 50 percent of the races the car finnished that year and almost the top step at Monaco... almost☝🏾
Que calidad de piloto por Dios, que humildad!! Pequeña gran diferencia con Hamilton, creído soberbio, uf le falta mucho, pero bueno dejémoslo ahí, Señor Senna mis respetos. 🇦🇷
03:56 Exactly what Alonso said a couple weeks ago about Hamilton not winning.. But senna was a "kid" yet and with a couple of tests in a F1.. amazing understanding of how the thing work/worked
3:57 Senna knew it from the beginning. It’s why Hamilton held his lead for so long. He had the fastest car on the grid therefore he could win championships near effortlessly.
Fearless Driver.. Good human being... RIP Champion
Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
He’s testing for F1 teams and the way he speaks on the interviews compared to F2 drivers nowadays, the confidence it’s unbelievable.
Drivers were much older when they joined F1 back then. Senna was about what 24? 25? Today drivers are already for 4-5 years in F1 by this age.

Tests were in ‘83, his accident was three years later.
It's quite amazing he managed 3 podiums with that Toleman

That's crazy. When they said that in the video, I heard it, too.
@@brotendodennis and frank they dont get him? Why? Experience or other driver in the grid at the moment?

In the end it was the reverse of how the tests started, he entered toleman, he went to mclaren and finally to williams
5:21 - 5:41: A premonition of things to come, several years down the road still...
A National hero. 🇧🇷
Back when talent was so important, that you could get into an F1 car he first time and beat the teams lap record by a full second.
His intensity, concentration and confidence were so great, I'm convinced that he could have bent a spoon with his mind
4:45 - If only he'd started with McLaren then, he'd have skipped ahead five years.
Ron Dennis offered a contract to Senna in ‘82 if I’m not wrong, according to a Brazilian biography, but Senna refused to sign it because he would assume a role as a test driver.

he definitely knew his worth
Drifting in the Williams while testing! 😎
That helmet. That livery... it's F1
Literally ahead of advanced human conditions this guy.
F1 lost so much with his death, imagine how valuable he would have been for the sport after retirement. His awareness about the sport even as a rookie is amazing, I'm positive he would have reached a big position at FIA, probably president.
or maybe an advisor in some f1 teams to help rookies and give them useful tips.
How ironic, his first ever test was in a Williams and his last race ever was also in a Williams. Destiny
But they not join Williams at first
I don't see the irony?
That's not what irony means, but ok.
309* people, plus the OP, don't know the meaning of irony.
That's not irony dude.
People still wondering who's the goat in F1...
Simply the best... as Tina sang for us.

Well,Lotus of course wasn't shining as he used to but still wasn't backmarkers when Senna joined to them.
This rookie looks like he will always go for a gap if it exists
A great man and a great driver!

He didn't crash by himself he was shot by an ice bullet... Do the research it's still possible to find the info on the net

Greetings from Brazil, São Paulo, Senna's homeland !!!!!!
This rookie Senna looks pretty promising, let's see what he does with his talent
What a legend
3:09 Frank Willians proving that the team made wrong decisions since always hahaha
Yep, that's why they won in 1987,1992,1993,1996, and 1997 right? Foolish boy.
I think not a single team principal would take such a risk to make a rookie debut in a top-level team. Don’t be slow on the uptake.
Maybe because Ayrton unfortunately wasn't there anymore in 1996 and 1997?
@@grandprixrejects7027 and where is his team now? all because he though Adrian Newey was a nobody
Yeah that's why the entire team was there. So that they can give laps to a kid who they are not interested in.
Imagine if he had driven for Williams or McLaren in that era - we might have been looking after so many more titles. Toleman and Lotus were never title contenders in that era.
goddaymn, so amazing to see the conviction with which he speaks, yes if you saw it at the time it would sound arrogant but by god did he back it up, and in his own mind he is only being truthful
It's one of those statements that would either become a meme or something of a premonition... In his case, the latter.
My God!! just a Kid and so serious. And your focus!!! Miss you Senna
The greatest, pure dedication
really amazing and very rare video thnx ..
Senna was the benchmark. a drivers driver.his best for me was monaco in the mp4/4 pure class.
Senna was a God on wheels
"It's not as good as Ferrari"
"I'm still gonna win"
Legend.
Actually the subtitles are wrong, he says "but maybe it can go to the podium"
he actualy won the race in toleman in monaco. but they predicted this will happen so stopped the race suddenly even if conditions were same since long time
@@oogway351 that’s not what happened at all if that race had run Bellof was gonna win he was smashing both the Legends on pace
He took on Toleman knowing, what was coming. What a fucking vision!!!
he is so adorable, I love him *sights
the real GOAT
Wow, I wish I could have met Sir Williams in the day. He seems a very respectable and honest individual.
1:40 Only his first experience but driving a F1 to its limit = absurd car control.
Where the LEGEND began
Very determined, even before F1 he only think about winning or podium.
Fascinating look back to the past. Thank you for uploading and sharing with us 👍
LEGEND!!
0:38 It's kind of unsettling how seeing a non-paralyzed Frank Williams makes you feel... he really did put his heart and soul into F1, and we are all enriched for it
The yellow helmet made ayrton stand out...
Sliding through turns. Frank Williams: “I’m not signing a rookie” lol
Yeah the last statement was so true. The little turbo charged Toleman got Ayrton on the podium in more than 50 percent of the races the car finnished that year and almost the top step at Monaco... almost☝🏾
A bigger statement to get that car in the podium so many times than maybe doing it in a better car. A showoff legend.
He was robbed of the Monaco win!!
Impressionante a maturidade e frieza de julgamento de um rapaz iniciando numa carreira.
De fato, Ayrton não era um ser humano "normal".
Ironically he drove all of those teams
That sliding around
Amazing footage.
Senna with no experience in F1 acting like he was the best driver. Because he was.
What a delicious video. Amazing footage and a good record of Ayrton personality since his first debut on f1. Thanks for the upload
I'd be doing an job interview soon. And I'm gonna use his answer when getting the question like: "how do you compare 2 contracts?"
Genius.
Que calidad de piloto por Dios, que humildad!! Pequeña gran diferencia con Hamilton, creído soberbio, uf le falta mucho, pero bueno dejémoslo ahí, Señor Senna mis respetos. 🇦🇷
Excellent rare footage
It does give quite an insight on what senna thought initially when he was just dabbling his shoes into F1
03:56 Exactly what Alonso said a couple weeks ago about Hamilton not winning.. But senna was a "kid" yet and with a couple of tests in a F1.. amazing understanding of how the thing work/worked
Alonso only had to explain this to the press and younger fans. I'm pretty sure everyone else involved in F1 knows this
Just to think, if he had made a different decision back then, he could have been alive today.
Desde muito cedo na carreira de piloto o Senna já demonstrava muita maturidade. Isso o tornou um dos melhores em pouco tempo.
Cant believe he was once referred to as "inexperienced" by Frank Williams.
he actually was lmao
well frank is not wrong.
Well, because he was.
Bruh, why not? He didn't start his F1 Career yet. So there's nothing wrong in that. smh
what is there to no believe in that? every damn f1 driver was inexperienced at some point.
❤
BTW: Frank's biggest mistake. Senna would bring him SO many titles!
senna would not drive if you could not help him win.. williams at that stage were weak, Alan Jones had just left because of a slow car
As much as he chose to race for Toleman, I think it was good that he ended up racing for all three of them!
3:57 Senna knew it from the beginning. It’s why Hamilton held his lead for so long. He had the fastest car on the grid therefore he could win championships near effortlessly.
Apesar da didade, Ayrton, se expressava como uma celebridade com muita responsabilidade.
R.I.P Sir Frank Williams, will be remebered as one of the great persons of f1.
Well look at Stroll and Sirotkin right now at Williams...
The Best Ever 🙌👏👏👏🙏
