It's amazing to see that!! he deserves to win in monaco in 1995, he had a probleme with his car during the qualify and had tu use berger's car so he qualified just 5. During the race he was the fastest(best lap) but brundle destroyed his race when he put him in the rail...
Alesi was a great f1 driver, especially in 1995 with the ferrari 27
If only Jean hadn't been so loyal to Ferrari ( they showed very little to him when the car started to come good) he could have moved to a winning team and would have been a sure World Championship contender. A driver of amazing ability and talent who just made the wrong choice of car.
The Ferrari in the video had about 700 bhp. Today they have about 780 without the use of KERS.
Furthermore, the tyres weren't much wider in 1995 than they are now. The rear tyres were reduced to 15 inches wide in '93, nowadays the rear tyres are 13 inches wide.
If anything, the cars of today resemble the early 90's cars a lot. Especially when you look at what the cars looked like from '99 until '09.
@Cain353 I wasn't referring to the width of the tyres, I am talking about the width of the cars. The cars of today are too narrow in my opinion, and the front wings look way too big. The cars were changed in 1998 by the FIA with the introduction of the grooved tyres to reduce grip and the narrower front and rear track was also introduced. Slicks came back in 2009.
They have ruined the end to this circuit, all the swimming pool chicanes don't have walls and casino square is wider, it isn't as good as it used to be bfore 2001
@RoxasSP come on what ??? you realy can't compare Senna with eny other driver ,and specialy not at streeats of Monaco ...he was out of this world ...but you have to agree that this was spetacular to watch :-))
@bcrljen5 He was so out of this world that he was impressively 0.465 faster in that qualy than S.Modena in a tyrrell... And we all know that Modena was one of the best of all times... *irony off*
@bcrljen5 he can compare whoever he wants to. yes, he was few secs slower, which is a massive gap. and yes, this video is fucking epic. i love driving on the limit. u dont see that today :( pity.
Actually the 1991 Williams was better than the McLaren. Unfortunately it was very unreliable at the start of the season so Senna got a nice points lead, but then Williams won 4 races in a row, mid season. After the 9'th race in Germany, Williams led the constructors' title and Mansell was just 8 points behind Senna, after his 3 wins in a row.
The 1991 McLaren was not a total dominator. Berger only won 1 race, compared to Patrese's 2 in Williams, and Mansell's 5.
You can't simply look at lap times. Changes to rules regarding cars and even qualifying e.g. low fuel,qualifying tyres etc. In fact I am pretty sure they had special qualifying tyres in 1991 abut they where banned later.
@RoxasSP You can't compare 1991 to 1995 like that. In 1995 there were more restrictive aero rules, narrower tires, no special qualifying tires, and this was during the first qualifying session. If you knew anything about Monaco, you would know that the track gets faster over the weekend. And of course Ayrton Senna behind the wheel would make a difference too, though Alesi managed 1:21.8 for 3rd in a Tyrrell in 1990, .5 off Senna's time, finishing the race in 2nd, 1 second behind Senna.
@RoxasSP they were different cars... regulations change from year to year, and not always they're faster. anyhow, i never saw senna give 3 seconds to schumacher in his last races... and he had a better car too. He was a very aggressive driver, very good.. but he' also greatly overestimated; a driving like his would be disqualified today.
@RoxasSP Well, between '91 and '95, tyres radius and width were reduced dramatically, engines dropped from 3500cc to 3000cc, electronic aids and active suspension were banned, underbody work was reduced, ect... a lots of changes to reduce the speed and increase safety. No wonder why there is 3sec between Senna's performance and Alesis'.
@ossusman lol, OK maybe you're right. My God they blew up so often. There was a gag running those years that if one Ferrari driver blew his engine the other would too in 10 laps! Most of the time it was actually true haha!
But they were really pretty and made a great sound, love the 412
that is actually incredibly masterful driving

In short. Senna's great driving and Williams' bad reliability in early 1991 saved McLaren.
As it were, Williams used the 1991 car, the FW14 in an improved form in 1992 called FW14B, with which it totally dominated.
The '95 Ferrari was reasonable competitive (3 fastest laps showed it had pace), but was unfortunately very unreliable, and something always broke.
