Truly a golden era. Senna, Mansell, Prost, Piquet, Schumacher, Alesi, Berger etc Add in a bit of James Hunt & Murray Walker, V10’s V12’s and Bridge corner. ❤️
@@reds005 loved. Bridge - gutted when it was removed from the main circuit. Murray, James Hunt , Jonathan Palmer, - no driver aids, 40 million horse power spooling up to throw you into space, bravery and fearlessness, different times.
The fact that Senna won the title in 1991 against the FW14 speaks volumes of his incredible talent. Mansell was a phenomenal driver too, just a great era of F1
@@David_D.sennas consistency by finishing on the podium in nearly every race he finished is what gave him the title even while Williams were dominating the mid season and latter half of the season. But yes it’s essentially Williams reliability issues allowing Senna to win 4 in a row at the start which sealed the title pretty much. Senna still the best in qualifying that year though
This footage is Great!!! I loved this time in F 1 particularly, certainly the golden era for racing and F 1, cars screaming, sparking, sliding, vortices coming off the rear wing, the drivers having to take a hand off the wheel to shift, look ma one hand through the corners, and they did all this at scary speeds with no gizzmos keeping the car on the track, lower safety standards and downforce. James Hunt and Murray Walker commentating and Senna battling with the other greats of that era, Mansell, Prost, Piquet, Patrese among others. It was Great!!!
@@andrealettich no it was not, only Alonso maybe would be good for 1991 hard competition, back in 1991 racing was hard, Senna still was using manual gearbox, in 2010 racing was way more easy, tons of electronics, power steering, etc.
Mansell was on semi Automatic gearbox and senna was driving with a mannual gearbox which is much more difficult to drive than the willams cars with semi automatic gearbox..
Senna would slap you in the face!! It doesn't matter how they change gear!.... the Renault williams was lighter and was better at the mid point in 1991! The V12 Honda was a beast but was heavy and Senna made it lighter with his skill!
it was dominant since they were not even pushing to the max, listen what Mansell said in the end, i had to do this last lap since Senna beat me and i "had" to do it. they didn't wanted to show the car potential. about the Mansell team mate we all know that who was considered second had no chance to fight.
I'd highly recommend you go and try driving an actual F1 car yourself if you say it's that easy. Today's F1 cars still are massive weapons. But I'd say that if we'd have the modern style of tv footage covering cars from the 90s, I'd still fall asleep, because it looks clinical. I actually enjoy watching onboard footage from current F1 without the commentary, but it looks so perfect that it's unable to capture the speed of the cars. The onboardcams from the 90s give you a much better sense of speed and I think we should conduct a test to show my point.
I agree totally, today's cars are mobile computers, pits telling drivers what to do, and listen to the engines, senna, mansell, schumacher, and big grip tyres
I remember watching it live on TV. Senna pushed the hell out of his car ! And Mansell with the better car by at least 1seconds per lap was cruising. Just imagine Senna driving the FW in 1992. He would have smashed every lap record and won 16 pole and at least 14 victories!!
@@gustavocesar4371 Not around Silverstone though. That accolade goes to Mansell. He qualified on pole in 1992 at Silverstone by nearly 2 seconds from his teammate, and was Senna in 3rd, 3 seconds behind.
8:45 because of Sennas throttle technique blipping he seemed to have far more overrun flames from the exhaust also look at his exhaust in the wet at Monaco 1984 Toleman same thing fascinating
Was at the Race that year just before Bridge when the cars came past the noise, vibration and smell was amazing Great memories Haven't watched F1 in years it's just not the same
Com 80 cavalos a mais é assim mesmo deu o que fazer Mandel foi um grande piloto mais olhem o nível de Ayrton Senna que luta com toda tecnologia que tinha a Williams e assim mesmo nós milésimos tendo a maclatem câmbio manual e sem tecnologia nenhuma por isso Nick Lauda falou ele foi o melhor piloto que já existiu
Great memories. I was there at Club corner and for the race when Senna ran out of fuel. I think qualifying was a more interesting psychological battle with just a few sets if qualifying tyres that could be used. Put drivers right on their mettle.
Damn I miss this. Senna was so exciting. The raw onboard shots always fading for all cars on the same part of the lap. Drivers were more engaged on the side of the circuit or in the garages, now they just jump out of the car and disappear. Who knows who is the best these days, but there are no rivalries left. Senna Mansell, Senna Prost, Hill Schumacher, etc, etc. Even Hamilton and Massa in the modern era. Particular cars used to run away with the season but at least there were opportunities for team mates to push each other, or various retirements adding a bit of excitement, that doesn't happen anymore.
Senna did miracles with not so competitive cars. His record of 60 poles in just 7 years (85-91) is astonishing, especially considering they only have 16 GPs per year back then. He was truly the master of taking the maximum out of qualifying tyres.
Loved watching this as brought back memories of watching F1 in that era in my late teens/early 20's. Mansell really was amazingly quick at Silverstone, destroying Prost the previous year in qualifying when they were team mates at Ferrari but sadly he suffered a mechanical failure in the race as he did many times in 1990. At least he won here in 1991 and again the following year in the iconic active ride Williams FW14B.
I will always have mad love & respect for Senna & what he could do. I'll also feel the same for Mr. Nigel Mansell, I like to call him Mad Dash Mansell cuz he could get on the wheel when it counted. He'd cut em up like pork chops.
@@pbysome i mean anecdotes sound good but its a fact that Prost was faster in both qualifying and the races. I mean I can say look at maldonado winning a race in the williams at tell me he wasnt the fastest of his time
Yet Berger was Sennas fastest teammate over a full season. He averaged 0.26 seconds slower in 1990. Prost averaged 0.405 off in 1988. Prost was much more complete though. After that it's a big drop to De Angelis at 1.05 seconds off in 1985 and 1.38 seconds for Michael in 1993. His slowest teammate was that Japanese Lemans winner at 4.05 seconds off in 1987. Even a slightly blinded Piquet kicked the crap out of the Japanese lad. It was a crime that Lotus allowed Ayrton such unprepared teammates in 1986-1987. Even Michael Andretti was a far better driver than The Earl of Bute Johnny Dumfries!
Amazing pilots, best F1 cars. But, japanese J-NTSC broadcasting it's way better than any Euro-Pal. This record, looks more like modern broadcastings than those amazing 60fps J-NTSC broadcastings. Compare this race to that year images from Japanese GP. Other than that, amazing times for racing 😎🏎️🏁

The golden years of F1. In my opinion 1991 championship had the best pilots ever.
Ayrton Senna, Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell & Alain Prost
It was a very different era, no electronic gadgetry just screaming engines, big tires and even Bigger Balls!!!
My favorite year tbh. V10s, high downforce flat floor way ahead of its time in terms of relevant qualifying lap time
2010 maybe was better,hamilton, vettel,alonso and schumacher!!

Why do I find it genuinely exciting to watch, even though I know the outcome of this session, whilst I yawn my way through nowadays' qualifications ?
Because you are a true fan!
Totally different gravy these days , not taking away from the danger they still face every race , but the old days were hardcore racing
When square heads and pr agents came along it, started getting watered down on the character department
Mansell v Senna. Some incredible battles between two incredible drivers
Such precision, millimeters from the big kerbs. Best drivers in history
Sir Frank Williams's satisfied face is unique when Mansell achieves pole position!!!
Senna on The limit 8:45
Goosebumps every time again.........i miss the 90`s
James Hunt was the supreme commentator. By golly he has been sorely missed.
Mansell was on semi Automatic gearbox and senna was driving with a mannual gearbox which is much more difficult to drive than the willams cars with semi automatic gearbox..
Senna would slap you in the face!! It doesn't matter how they change gear!.... the Renault williams was lighter and was better at the mid point in 1991! The V12 Honda was a beast but was heavy and Senna made it lighter with his skill!
People say the Williams was dominant. But Mansell was almost 2 seconds ahead of his teammate. Come on, the guy was frighteningly quick.
it was dominant since they were not even pushing to the max, listen what Mansell said in the end, i had to do this last lap since Senna beat me and i "had" to do it.
they didn't wanted to show the car potential. about the Mansell team mate we all know that who was considered second had no chance to fight.
in race Williams was more than 1 second faster for lap.
if this it's not dominant!!!
Patrese said himself: "i wish i knew how strong the car was, cause my arms for it were to weak"!
@@leart78an you imagine Senna driving this Williams , fighting with mansell by pole ?
@@alejandrozuniga1459 Then Mansel would be destroyed, like Prost destroyed him in 1990!
1992 the pole time was TWO seconds faster due to active suspension (and other upgrades)
Crazy.
Williams from 91,92 and 93 some another world!
of course modern drivers are amazing, but these guys had some kind of a gladiator aura that we just dont find nowadays...
Today is all fluffy and soft snowflakes. Any PS4 or sim driver can drive a F1 nowadays

Senna eternal!
Anyone who beats Ayrton is a top bloke. Mr Mansell was just that. 👍🇬🇧🏆
It's really great the watch this again.
I miss this era of Formula One, Ayrton, Nigel were so fast and rivals.
Really Cool.
Those cars look incredible in qualifying trim, sparks flying!
For sure ...
Mansell Mania! Great times
From those days when drivers were men, we had thrilling tracks and challenging cars. Look at what we have nowadays!
This is like watching gladiators battle compared to the Dyson Vs hoover battles now
Couldn't agree more

I so wish I was alive to watch this in person. What a spectacle
I wonder what time Ayrton would have done if he was driving that FW14. He drove the wheels off that McLaren.
I guess max 0,100 to 0,300 quicker.
Nigel was a great and quick driver also, so I don’t think the difference would be huge.
I know this is probably controversial but I don't think he would have been faster than Mansell at Silverstone. Nige was epic there.
Probably slower. Mansell was super quick, especially at Silverstone. Mansell qualified over a second faster than his team mate in this race
@@adelaidecity76 absolutely. His 1990 pole lap was insane
