Happy birthday professor, always remembered, one of the very best. Lucianno buddy, there's a tuber out there, a good friend who thinks like us, an american friend called craigg1981, love this guy. You can see him on my Gilles Villeneuve tribute, a good man, he's welcomed here like the rest of our friends, you wrote the list earlier!!!!

That's no reason to rate him lower than the flamboyant drivers, though...

Great tribute for a great driver, I'm not fan of him, but it's clear that this guy is so fucking talented, much more than many F1 experts considered....................­............

Mimimimi! And to think I wanted to be taller than him... xD

Prost... "boring"? I doubt so. I like him because he epic technician :3. I cannot dislike him, and, why? He was also cool. Little, but smart, cerebral :3. I cannot understand why some people rates lower ;___;...

Yeah. Because my respect for the ultimate team (Senna and Prost) is because I like all those two opposite kind of driving.

Good tribute! :3 \o/

41 fastest laps and 51 wins speak for themselves. He almost got 8 championship titles. He competed against Mansell, Senna, Rosberg, Hill, Lauda and Alesi... on the same car... AND WON. Prost = The best F1 driver of the modern F1 era.

On Februry 24th, Professor's Birthday!!! 55 y.o. !!!!!. And still showing an awesome performance racing on ice in Andros Championship, still kicking asses (and getting his ass kicked as well) against some 20 or 30 something y.o. guys...... UTMOST RESPECT to this little frenchman today day: Happy Birthday Alain!!!. How I miss his era: Ayrton, Nigel, Keke, Nelson, Niki, René, Jones, Lole, Elio, Michele, even Damon and Shuey still novice. A 180% contrast to nowadays shameful, disgraceful F1....

That's why some people considered him as "Boring"(which I don't agree), because Prost was stealthy, silent, but as you said, fast when needed. Senna was more agresive in his driving style, and that's what people loves in a driver, no fear to overtaking and crashing, everything or nothing. Remember the Mexican GP 1990(a track that looks like hated Senna), with Prost starting from 13th, finishing 1st, while Senna suffered tyre puncture.

[lucianoestivill]

Very good explanation about Prost; you see his approach was different from the one by our idol Ayrton, but nontheless a valid approach: fast if needed, or if feeling comfortable.... The results are clear, with his approach, He had the same (and/or better) rates than Ayrton.... Commands respect, for sure....

[themagicayrtonsenna]

Prost was a driver which actually didn't care about get pole, he started from somewhere in the grid, behid the first row, then he slowly gains positions and by the end of the race you realize he's fighting for the first positions and already has the fastest lap of the race. His setups usually focused on the race instead of pole, a big difference with Senna. Prost began to go faster and faster, but saving the car, while Senna was consistently fast over the race, he usually won't do a fastest lap.

Prost was a good driver, but too computerised and boring to watch
