2:10few people really do know myself they

2:15what it takes from a racing driver
2:18somebody that has left behind thousand
2:21thousand miles away
2:22family and friends to live in europe
2:26being so young and always in a fighting

4:43is in fifth position sixties frostburg
4:47seventh is madrid victor on eighth visit
4:53and has come up through the field he
4:56started in 13th place and he's now
4:59[Music]
5:08settled
5:11in third place
5:30[Music]
5:36but i think we are watching the arrival
5:38of air from federer
5:40as uh truly outstanding talent he's
5:42catching
5:43our pros for something like three
5:45seconds of that and that
5:46is a truly staggering performance
6:03stop the rain
6:09[Music]
6:18is
6:21[Music]
6:32foreign
6:48[Music]
6:58this year he will undoubtedly be world
7:01champion in the future
7:02if his career continues
7:14fantastic
7:17what about next year are you going to
7:18stay with the tallman team what
7:20what are your plans now for i don't know
7:22i don't know at the moment there's still
7:24no decisions and nothing clear we have
7:27to wait
7:28more time to to see what happened you're
7:31not going to be satisfied until you're
7:32in a winning position though are you
7:34i believe if you are doing something
7:36like competing like motor racing
7:38you either do well or forget it
7:56[Music]
8:02[Music]
8:04lotus was the perfect place for hayerton
8:07to move to it was a team that had won
8:10championships and had won
8:12many grand prix and they worked very
8:14very hard
8:15around iairtan to give his talent all
8:18the facilities that it needed to win
8:25when i first come to formula 1 in 84
8:28i was starting so i had so much to learn
8:31and to achieve that
8:33anything any good result was
8:36a progress was a motivation then i
8:40changed to a bigger team to lotus and i
8:43still
8:43went up and up and up and i'm still
8:46doing it
8:47so even when i have some problems i look
8:50always
8:51to the next race because maybe one race
8:53i have no chance but next one or the
8:55next five
8:56will be good against one bad one
9:00so you got to try to make the numbers
9:03bigger and bigger
9:32there's no doubt that senna came from a
9:35background of
9:36a privilege his family was very
9:39comfortably off
9:41once they recognized that his ambition
9:44was to be a racing driver
9:46they had no problem backing his early
9:48efforts in go-karts
9:54but it would be a great mistake to think
9:56that he was able to buy his way into
9:59formula one
10:00senna himself realized that to
10:04make a serious lasting impact on formula
10:06one
10:07he had to fight his way into it by
10:09virtue of his talent
10:35[Music]
10:58[Music]
11:12it's a unique thing like madrid
11:16this is something so strong and so
11:21intense once you experience it
11:24you keep searching for it all the time
11:29[Music]
11:32emily okada from japan tv fuji tv
11:35and i'm just a tv personality and not
11:38news reporter so i see so
11:55in japan thank you a little kiss bye-bye
11:59another kiss
12:11there's only one word that describes
12:12ayerton style and that is
12:15fast he would take
12:18the car beyond its design capabilities
12:22he would break later fly into these
12:25corners where the car was
12:27just over the edge and somehow
12:31he could dance and dance with that car
12:33to where it stayed on the track
12:39[Music]
12:40as i watched ayaton's early career
12:43what was very apparent was his pace and
12:45his dedication
12:47but in the end what you're looking for
12:50is an intellect
12:52and i thought this guy's got what it
12:54takes
13:00[Music]
13:05in the mid 80's mclaren was the team to
13:08beat
13:08ron dennis was the best manager the law
13:11of post was the best driver
13:16we all called the professor because he
13:18would do methodically whatever it took
13:21to be ahead on points
13:23if it meant coming fifth he would hold a
13:26fifth place
13:27and collect those points rather than
13:29fighting for a second
13:30third or first place finish and
13:34he certainly understood the politics of
13:36the sport
13:37and he played that game smarter than
13:39anyone
13:46he knows the professor of motor racing
13:48because you plan
13:49everything out and you know where you're
13:51going is that actually true
13:53i'm very realistic so i think uh when
13:56i'm competitive i'm i know that i'm
13:57competing
13:58when i'm not i know what i'm not sure
14:02i don't know exactly why uh women
14:05are not very competitive in motor racing
14:07especially in formula one
14:09but uh you know you're a beautiful woman
14:11and i know somebody at mac line who
14:13likes you very much and i can arrange it
14:18you know if only someone would teach me
14:19how to drive a car
14:21a racing car i might be able to give up
14:22this job
14:31does your wife drive you home
14:43very hello that we have uh the best two
14:45drivers in the world
14:47uh the two most professional drivers as
14:49well and
14:50um if we're not consistently in the
14:54winning circle next year then
14:58we certainly won't be able to put the
14:59blame at the drivers
15:01it's a great opportunity for me
15:02professional and as a personal point of
15:05view i feel
15:07very happy to work together with allah
15:38to
15:42[Music]
15:53to be world champion and uh he doesn't
15:56want to let
15:57his chance i mean going away that's
16:00normal and then
16:01what about you what about you it's a
16:03little bit different
16:05so you're going to let it let it go i
16:07have a little bit
16:08more pressure than i mean you put me
16:11more pressure
16:14i think you could see smiles but
16:17at the same time some slightly strange
16:20body languages they realized just
16:23where they were and what was going to
16:25unfold alan who
16:27obviously felt he was well nested down
16:30at mclaren
16:31and the young pretender coming in and
16:33clearly
16:34threatening that position both had great
16:38intellects and both
16:39were very good racing drivers beating
16:42each other
16:43became far more challenging than beating
16:45the rest of the field
16:53[Music]
17:07that day i suddenly realized that i was
17:10no longer
17:12driving it conscious
17:15and i was in a different dimension for
17:17me
17:19the circuit for me was a tunnel which i
17:21was just going
17:22going going and i realized i was
17:25well beyond my conscious understanding
17:33[Music]
17:42[Music]
17:45bayern was multiple seconds into the
17:48lead
17:49had the race in hand with only a handful
17:52of laps to go
17:54and he received a radio message that
17:56said
17:57you are so far in the lead slow down
18:04senna has hit the wall
18:08ayrton senna is out of his car and out
18:11of this race
18:18[Music]
18:22he never wanted to beat me he wanted to
18:24immediately he wanted to
18:26to show the people that he was much
18:28stronger much better
18:29and that was his weakness
18:38his post-accident emotion was
18:41pure anger with himself
18:44and he couldn't cope with it at all he
18:47actually walked back to his apartment
18:50and it was two or three hours before he
18:54surfaced
18:57[Music]
19:01i just came to so close to the faction
19:04that we can that i
19:05i i relax and i open
19:08windows for mistakes and i learned that
19:11there
19:12and since then
19:15i progressively come back because i lost
19:17some confidence
19:18and progressively i fought i fight back
19:21and i got much stronger
19:23after that that instantly somehow i got
19:26closer
19:27to to god and that has been very
19:30important for me
19:31as a man
19:39monaco was the turning point in the 88th
19:41season
19:43[Applause]
19:44went on a amazing run winning six of the
19:47next eight races putting him just ahead
19:50of post in the championship
19:56[Music]
19:58what happens now you two good fun we'll
20:01have good fun from now on
20:03maybe we fight outside the car
20:09i think he's gonna get more and more
20:11excite the championship
20:13is it possible to be cool in the
20:15championship no
20:16[ __ ] can only be one winner
20:54the pressure was on earth he wasn't poor
20:58he was going to be world champion if he
21:00won that race
21:02so the pressure was huge
21:20[Music]
21:26[Music]
21:42is
21:47[Music]

26:51[Music]
27:051989 season was somewhat less harmonious
27:08than the year before both drivers
27:12took on different levels of aggression
27:16especially when racing each other
27:25that's when the gloves come off within a
27:27team
27:28that's when engineers stop sharing
27:31information
27:32that's where drivers start looking over
27:34their shoulder to see
27:35who's getting what from whom
27:40and i airton with his love of truth
27:44wasn't as in tune as allah approached
27:47with adding another dimension
27:49the politics of the sport
28:00is
28:14is
28:25[Music]
28:28so
28:31of course having a french fia president
28:34jean-marie ballest
28:35at the time was helpful for allah
28:37because
28:38they were close
28:49[Music]
28:56so
29:07all the driver in the world are looking
29:11after you in the tv
29:13because they sing stupidly that you
29:16are an example it is a big mistake but
29:21he thinks that
29:24i repeat no danger for
29:28the end of the worship country very
29:31clear
29:33now defend you
29:42the championship is neck to neck senna
29:45has to win
29:46the japanese grand prix to keep the
29:49points battle going on to the last race
29:53prost knows that if senna does not
29:55finish
29:56he will be the formula one champion
30:13[Music]
30:20foreign
30:26[Music]
30:42[Music]
30:48so
30:52[Music]
31:30here
31:39[Music]
31:57[Music]
32:05[Music]
32:12foreign
32:26is
32:54oh
33:04[Music]
33:16it may be 20 minutes [ __ ] you know a cup
33:20of tea
33:50foreign
33:53[Music]
34:04the decision
34:12[Music]
34:39apparently yes i was not
34:42100 true i know the regulation but you
34:45never know how it's going to be
34:48interpreted but to be very honest i mean
34:52i'm quite happy to
34:53to leave because i think it's it becomes
34:56absolutely impossible to work with
34:57seattle
34:58and and that's a good end of
35:01championship
35:11[Music]
35:21what i'd like to do now is
35:25show you uh some footage which i think
35:28is
35:29quite relevant because we're told that
35:31you can't use escape roads
35:33to rejoin the race escape roads are not
35:36for escaping through
35:39they're in fact for stopping in turning
35:41round and going out of
35:46very important to remember no exclusions
35:49no penalties no disqualifications
35:54and for that is excluded from the
35:56japanese grand prix
35:57where's the consistency
36:00it can't be right
36:07you said you took your normal
36:10aerial races it looked as though you
36:13turned in quite early
36:18i won 39 races and now a swiss
36:20championship
36:21do you think that i would i would do
36:24something like this and purpose
36:26you know you know i've already turned
36:28for the corner
36:29maybe a little bit earlier if you want
36:31but that was my corner
36:38tribute
37:06is like i have total responsibility for
37:09everything that took place there
37:11i was blamed for everything and i was
37:14penalized for everything
37:16i was treating like a criminal
37:19and this is totally unacceptable
37:45having left him alone for a while and i
37:48gently persuaded him
37:51if you are true to your values
37:55if you believe that your your values are
37:59correct values then walking away from
38:04the dark forces that you're faced with
38:06in life
38:07just doesn't become an option
38:23the 1990 season he came back wiser
38:26the team is harmonious pros has gone out
38:29of mclaren to ferrari
38:31and santa is in a perfect position to
38:33compete for the title
38:38image financially
38:44yes
38:55a small problem he thinks that he can't
38:57he can't kill himself
38:59because he believes in god and things
39:01like this and i think it's very
39:02dangerous
39:03for the other drivers
39:26b
39:30[Music]
39:45who is it
39:57i was in the pits the practice was
40:01stopped i hear
40:04by different people there was accident
40:06was donald
40:08was bad was too bad was disaster was
40:11and i decided to go to the place to
40:14to see myself
40:28[Music]
40:33million things went through my mind i
40:37realized i was not going to give up
40:39my passion just
40:42having seen what i had seen
40:47and i had to to put myself together and
40:51walk out
40:52go to the racing car and do it again
40:56and do it again and do it even better
40:58than before
41:00because that was the way to kind of
41:03cover that impact that had on me
41:08i was just not ready to give up as much
41:10i was scared to continue i was not ready
41:12to give up
41:13my aim my target my objective is my
41:16passion my dream
41:18my life this is my life
41:26[Music]
41:39[Music]
41:44[Music]
41:56[Music]
42:04as far as i i hear he's out of danger
42:08life danger which is a lot
42:12considering the accident and as it
42:15happened to him
42:16can happen to any of us there are some
42:18things that you can calculate
42:20and but there are things which are
42:22unexpected and those unexpected
42:24are the most dangerous ones like it
42:26happened to him today
42:28um
42:36i hope we don't see those things
42:40in the future
42:51amazing for the third time in a row the
42:54championship
42:55hinged on the race in japan
42:59but this time if pros didn't finish
43:01airtin would be champion
43:05gentlemen good morning
43:08numbers of laps from green light to
43:11checker flag
43:12will be 53 laps dangerously
43:16and or dangerous maneuvers will be
43:18investigated immediately
43:20and will lead to suspension of the
43:22license for one or more for one
43:24world championship events any questions
43:29yes it was a big yes [ __ ] up last year
43:33why you have to repeat the same thing
43:36the same thing is
43:37if a mystery came the story stop you all
43:40right
43:40i have no no traffic let you go
43:44if you have to turn around and go
43:46backwards
43:48against another car that's that's bad
43:52okay does everybody feel that way
43:59thank you thank you very much
44:04i can't stand it i can't stand this it's
44:06a joke
44:07what happened last year it's a joke this
44:09situation just prove here
44:11i said nothing and you see somebody
44:13raising the point
44:14and you see everybody agree and last
44:16year was really bad for me
44:18i'm sorry
44:28the story down in the pit lane and on
44:30the grid is one of tension with the
44:31world championship
44:33up for grabs everyone is extremely tense
44:35ayad jason actually walked out of the
44:37driver's meeting today
44:39he thinks that the pole position should
44:40be on the left-hand side of the grid not
44:42on the right if the inside was clear
44:45inside the shirt is better but because
44:47he's dirty the other side is
44:51the racing line is the line where the
44:54cars most normally
44:55drive it's the fastest line around the
44:58track
44:59it's really important to have pull
45:02position
45:02on the racing line if you are on the
45:06opposite side
45:07you are on a part of the track that is
45:09rarely used
45:10and has half the grip
45:30will be in pole position for tomorrow's
45:32japanese grand prix
45:34frost was second fastest
45:53the whole position was kiss and then
45:56suddenly the
45:57whole position was mysteriously moved to
46:00the dirty side of the circuit which he
46:02felt was
46:03unjust
46:06that decision influenced by molest i
46:09know that we know that
46:12i was [ __ ] many times by the system i
46:14told myself
46:15today is no way today has to be my way
46:19i don't care what happens it has to be
46:21my way
46:33takes the leader he's trying to go
46:39through
46:40the inside
46:51[Music]
46:53have come together again and they are
46:54both off the racetrack this
46:56is unbelievable
47:02we don't know whether we're going to see
47:03a red flag we haven't seen any yet so it
47:05looks as if the race is going to
47:08continue
47:18that's a very sad way for this year's
47:21world championship
47:22to finish
47:31can you tell us what happened on the
47:32first lap iairton
47:34well unfortunately we touched in the
47:36first corner when we were fighting for
47:38the lead
47:39and we both went off i think that's
47:41because the pole position is on the
47:42wrong side of the track here you wanted
47:44to change that
47:45absolutely you fight you break your to
47:48be on pole
47:49and then they put you on the wrong side
47:50of the circuit how do you feel about
47:52being world champion
47:54it's not a bad feeling at all is it
47:55congratulations
48:00what was very clear with ayaton when he
48:04got back
48:05is that his body language his
48:08mannerisms showed that he was in massive
48:11conflict
48:14he was certainly not proud of himself
48:17certainly not reveling in the fact that
48:21this had determined the world
48:23championship
48:26formula one world championship for
48:30[Applause]
48:32drivers
48:35[Applause]
48:41he knew i was right with him he moved to
48:44the inside line
48:45going towards the first corner i just
48:46chased him then and he opened the gap
48:49and knowing me like he does know
48:53he must realize that if there was a gap
48:55i was gonna try to overtake him
48:58okay let me ask you another difficult
49:00question
49:02if i were to count back all the world
49:05champions
49:06the number of times they had made
49:07contact
49:09with other drivers that you in the last
49:1236 months or 48 months have been in
49:14contact
49:15with more other cars and drivers than
49:18they might have done in total
49:21i find amazing for you to make such a
49:23question stuart
49:24because you are very experienced and you
49:26know a lot about racing
49:28and you should know that by being a
49:31racing driver
49:32you are under risk all the time by being
49:35a racing driver means
49:37you are racing with other people and if
49:39you no longer go for a gap
49:41that exists you're no longer a racing
49:43driver because we are competing
49:45we are competing to win and and the main
49:48motivation to all of us
49:50is to compete for a victory is not come
49:52third fourth fifa six but it hasn't
49:54mattered right has been the case
49:56well i think it's always irrelevant oh
49:57what you're saying jack
49:59is really irrelevant because i'm a
50:01driver that won
50:02more races than anybody over the past
50:04three years i'm a driver that
50:05is being on pole position more than
50:06anybody in history and i'm a driver that
50:09won
50:09two titles in the past three years and i
50:11don't think how
50:13i cannot comprehend how you can try to
50:16turn things around to say that i've been
50:19involved in more accidents than anybody
50:20because that is not true as well
50:44which went on for a couple of seasons
50:47more
50:47was just absolutely wonderful for
50:49formula one's appeal
50:53television ratings improved you know
50:55everything went up people talked about
50:57it
50:57it was controversial shocking and
50:59fascinating
51:03the success of the sport also grew you
51:05know commercially and
51:07bernie stone was very clever the way
51:08they distribute television
51:10but to keep an audience you need
51:12personalities and of course
51:14the prosthena story was a big hit
51:17and erton became very famous outside the
51:20sport thanks to the impact
51:21of formula one on tv
51:26[Applause]
51:30i feel so worried for the people because
51:42[Music]
51:49in brazil it was very different
51:52the people were unhappy under the regime
51:54that was ruling them
51:57poverty was just desperate so his appeal
52:01there at a hard time
52:02was extraordinary

59:01the good material things that
59:03money can buy but at the same time you
59:06have
59:06lots of problems social problems and
59:08poverty
59:10some violence as a consequence
59:14i try to help a little bit for children

1:00:14[Music]
1:00:17in 91 was in great form
1:00:20i think it was his strongest year he won
1:00:23seven races constantly on pole position
1:00:27the intensity is every bit as high as
1:00:29ever
1:00:30[Music]
1:00:35there just seemed to be a further wisdom
1:00:38a further bit of growth
1:00:46[Music]
1:01:04but then the car bit him hard
1:01:07for the first time he really thought he
1:01:09could be hurt on a formula one car
1:01:25a neurological examination to check the
1:01:27chest and the blood pressure the abdomen
1:01:30and the limbs and uh how did you feel
1:01:34he's fine no problems to worry about no
1:01:36none at all
1:01:40it's the deepest personal relationship
1:01:43that i've ever had with any driver
1:01:46whenever i got to the circuit and
1:01:49ran into seniors usually being
1:01:51interviewed or
1:01:52surrounded by people and the moment he
1:01:55saw me his face would always light up
1:01:57with a beautiful
1:01:58grip because he had that wonderful
1:02:01humility
1:02:03which is not common amongst racing
1:02:13drivers
1:02:18yes
1:02:22question yes
1:02:25we talked about
1:02:29the chicanes and the barriers that we
1:02:31had with the paddocks
1:02:32yes you happen to hit those tires it's
1:02:35very likely that the tires throw you up
1:02:37in here and you end up rolling
1:02:40that's what happened with me in mexico
1:02:42and
1:02:43that can happen here with other people i
1:02:45agree
1:03:00he has
1:03:14we do today for the race we can do
1:03:18anything
1:03:19i think it's better to not have those
1:03:21tires there i happen to
1:03:23lose the breaking point at the first you
1:03:25came yesterday
1:03:26until you know finish what let me finish
1:03:55i'm sorry that is
1:04:10yes
1:04:25[Music]
1:04:35is my decision
1:04:49the decision is democratic vote
1:04:52unless the driver by end
1:04:56i don't know
1:05:02who are in favor we replace
1:05:05the time by the way
1:05:10your hand stop
1:05:15against attention
1:05:19everybody agrees okay immediately
1:05:22the world you replace the guy by the god
1:05:25okay
1:05:28[Music]
1:05:35what happened going into that chicane
1:05:38tried to overtake
1:05:39sinha it was blocked me
1:05:43doing the res not very correct
1:05:47i think everyone knows by now he's
1:05:49always complaining either
1:05:51by the car or the tires or the team or
1:05:54the mechanics or the few
1:05:55or or the other drivers or the circuit
1:05:58it's always somebody else's blame it's
1:05:59never his fault
1:06:01no problem but i have nothing to lose i
1:06:04can't win the championship
1:06:05but uh if i find him again the bet the
1:06:08same way
1:06:08if he's correct the same way i push him
1:06:10out
1:06:14prost was sacked from ferrari because
1:06:16he'd criticized the car
1:06:19the only thing he could do really was to
1:06:21take a year off
1:06:22telling everybody he was on a sabbatical
1:06:45if i finish second place the
1:06:47championship will be over
1:06:49if manso does not win then it's almost
1:06:52certain that the championship will be
1:06:53over as well
1:07:07[Music]
1:07:26ah
1:07:35[Music]
1:07:40is
1:07:42[Music]
1:07:54foreign
1:07:58third world title ensures that he'll be
1:08:00ranked among the all-time greats
1:08:14[Applause]
1:08:54[Music]
1:09:04foreign after that third world
1:09:07championship i saw another senate
1:09:10he was very satisfied very confident he
1:09:13knew the sport
1:09:15better than ever he saw it with real
1:09:18eyes
1:09:19for the good and the bad and he still
1:09:20loved it as much as anyone in the
1:09:32paddock
1:09:46foreign
1:10:14brazilian
1:10:27there is a great desire on me on
1:10:30improving
1:10:32getting better that makes me happy and
1:10:35every time that i feel i am
1:10:36slowing down my learning process my
1:10:40learning curve is
1:10:41getting flatter or whatever then it
1:10:43doesn't make me very happy
1:10:47and that applies not only as a
1:10:49profession as a racing driver but also
1:10:51as a man
1:10:54of course
1:10:57i shall have a lot more to learn as a
1:10:59man than a racist driver because
1:11:01my career could last not many years
1:11:05my life hopefully will go still for a
1:11:07long time
1:11:09maybe i'm only at the half of my life
1:11:13right now so
1:11:17there is a lot to go a lot to learn a
1:11:19lot to do still in life
1:11:22and happiness will come when i feel
1:11:25complete
1:11:26as a whole which definitely i don't feel
1:11:28today
1:11:30but i have plenty of time to fulfill
1:11:32that too
1:11:45for the next season the level of
1:11:47competition was distorted
1:11:49by what was going on technically with
1:11:52william's car
1:11:55the car balanced itself each corner was
1:11:59controlled by a computer
1:12:02all the driver had to do was put his
1:12:04right foot down and go as fast as
1:12:06possible
1:12:07so in a car without that you were at a
1:12:09serious disadvantage
1:12:11mclaren is still well off the williams
1:12:13renault piece
1:12:15with the result the three times world
1:12:17champion airton cena
1:12:18has no chance of retaining his title
1:12:23when you go into this sort of
1:12:29electronic war
1:12:33you can find yourself completely
1:12:37stuck the electronics do a given
1:12:41a given situation and
1:12:44no matter who you put in the card the
1:12:47tracks will do the work and not the
1:12:48driver
1:12:50and i don't think that is really what
1:12:52you want to have a
1:12:55a truly world championship
1:12:59of drivers
1:13:02it is
1:13:13the only thing i asked on the contract i
1:13:15said i don't want to be a team met with
1:13:18elton
1:13:19uh it has to be clear and they have
1:13:21accepted that
1:13:23very quickly no it's not our intention
1:13:25that is the only thing i ask on the
1:13:27contract
1:13:27because i wanted to be a champion i did
1:13:29not want to lose the opportunity
1:13:32it's no secret that i've been
1:13:35trying very hard to to get some
1:13:41some deal with williams
1:13:44the situation is very complex
1:13:48it is
1:13:51it's not nice it's not clear either
1:14:40eyes
1:14:54a he did
1:14:56accomplish some of his greatest drives
1:15:00even though he spent most of his time
1:15:03looking at the back of a williams car
1:15:04which was much faster than his
1:15:08french racing drive alan prost has won
1:15:11the formula one world drivers
1:15:12championship for the fourth time
1:15:14frost won the championship and duly
1:15:15retired
1:15:17thus getting out of the way
1:15:21it seems like a little goodbye from you
1:15:23to mclaren
1:15:25do you think it was the last season for
1:15:27mclaren
1:15:28i think so i think it will be my last
1:15:36season
1:15:40[Music]
1:15:54[Music]
1:16:03exactly as i
1:16:07[Music]
1:16:18it's never too late to change your mind
1:16:24but anyway he said he was happy for me
1:16:27and
1:16:27uh that's what he told me too
1:16:31that's wrong
1:16:35and i said you know must keep the good
1:16:37times the good moments
1:16:39and let's finish that way finish with
1:16:42the good things
1:16:51it was cena's last race for
1:16:54mclaren across the last race for
1:16:58williams
1:16:59and although nobody knew at the time it
1:17:03was
1:17:03the last time either of them would be on
1:17:06a podium
1:17:17[Applause]
1:17:28so

1:17:34ladies and gentlemen brazilian drivers
1:17:44going to be the best driver available

1:17:57is therefore the best piece of equipment
1:17:59if you like
1:18:00you can put in the machine to deliver
1:18:03to our requirements the international
1:18:05motorsports federation has
1:18:07banned some of the controversial
1:18:09computer devices which help
1:18:11drivers in formula one motor racing the
1:18:13ban is designed to stop the domination
1:18:15of the richest formula one teams like
1:18:17williams renault the world champions
1:19:14[Music]
1:19:16almost eight seconds between them now
1:19:23[Music]
1:19:36we're certainly not happy with the way
1:19:41things are with the car right as they
1:19:43are at the moment
1:19:45the handling isn't particularly good
1:19:52the cars weren't supposed to have any of
1:19:54the electronic aids that they'd had the
1:19:56previous year but senna became convinced
1:19:59that
1:19:59the benetton being driven by michael
1:20:02schumacher
1:20:02who had won first two races of the
1:20:04season had retained
1:20:06some of those particularly the traction
1:20:08control
1:20:09the thing that eliminates the wheel spin
1:20:15it didn't stack up that he was being
1:20:17blown away
1:20:18by the bennett and he wanted us to
1:20:21protest
1:20:23which we didn't do
1:20:44so
1:20:58[Music]
1:21:02we are here starting from zero so
1:21:03basically our championship
1:21:05starts here it's not a comfortable
1:21:07position to be in
1:21:08but that's the reality now you've won
1:21:11here three times already
1:21:12you really do need to make it four i

1:36:13maybe the power steering failed maybe it
1:36:16was
1:36:16the tyre temperatures that made the car
1:36:19skate straight off the road
1:36:21it will always be a mystery
1:36:49ran out of luck he did not have
