''And Senna sprint's away, prorlrorlrorlprprol takes the lead, udhcbujvhfukkbprologlhjpgjjpgl­rool Senna is trying to get through on the inside''....

I was watching F1 when Senna was around and he was a great racing driver, there is no doubt about that. He could be a real *sshole on the track though. Prost was also a great driver. He could be quite the *sshole off the track.

All in all though, I don't think Alain Prost deserves the bad rap he is getting after the Senna film. The fragment that really should have been in the film is this: watch?v=xvTAvRxXsx4

@crazygeek777 I think this is a groundless statement. Anyway it is based on a prejudice: prost = always wrong; senna = always right

[crazygeek777]

@beqa16v he nearly was banned, prost miscalculated and it cost him the championship...

[beqa16v]

@crazygeek777 Then if Prost was so heavily backed by the FISA why was not Senna banned? This was a perfect reason to ban him

[crazygeek777]

@beqa16v to try and get senna banned from the FIA

[beqa16v]

@crazygeek777 what was the reason for him? a crash would mean the end of the championship. It was all prosts way into the corner senna was not even at his back wheel.

@spookedjunglist This is a clear example of what a false documentary can do! Pole was not changed it was always there. Check another comment of mine here or check the 88 and 89 starts. Just because one arrogant driver wants it to be changed it does not mean it has to be changed. Even today poles are not always on racing lines but people do not crash each other because of that.

[beqa16v]

Senna is speaking about starting from a wrong side as if the pole location was deliberately moved. Actually it was always on that side. Check 89 and 88 race starts. I absolutely admire senna's commitment and his deep personality but completely hate him for some of the things he did. If I was a sporting authority I would confront such an arrogant person always wanting things his way.

@crazygeek777 Woah I'm not saying it's a bad thing. Senna knew before the start that he would be World Champ at the first corner. There was no space for him, he knew that

Senna is one of the all time greats, but you cannot justify this accident by claiming it's revenge.

[AlejjSi]

Senna´s greatest reply to all this shit from FIA would have been to beat Prost fair and square in this race despite the change of sides. But I understand, he wanted revenge too and that part of his mind got the better of him. I wouldn´t do anything differently, being on his place...
