McLaren Fan wrote:Why is this incident being brought up after sixteen years? DD must fancy attacking another of his pet hates, this time Senna. The thread is made all the more laughable, as DD and Gregg are fans of the most arrogant tossers in Formula One history: Schumacher.
It's nice of you all to see Senna's side of the story. He has been lumbered with a woeful Ford engine all season, but has exceeded all expectations to win several times, and drove a brilliant race that day. Then, as the leader, Senna was entitled to right of way. Hill was also arsing about, trying to assist Prost. Irvine's driving could hardly be described as terribly fair as well; there was an occasion when all three drivers could have made contact. Hardly an acceptable situation. Finally, Irvine was/is a smarmy bar steward - something that even comes across in the tone of the transcript - so he almost deserved punched for that alone.

He could have been in last place but felt everyone should move over for him because he is Ayrton Senna.So that's where Hamilton got his "shake fist at a Force India whilst BATTLING FOR POSITION with it" idea from.

He was far to arrogant at times, and I've personally never been able to warm to the guy.
A lapped car must allow the faster car past after seeing a maximum of three blue flags or risk being penalised.

bud wrote: And for a Schumacher fan to criticise a driver for being arrogant just made my day!Yes I'm a Schumacher fan BUT that had nothing to do with my post. Remember I was watching and appreciating Senna before most of you, who have issue's with my post/opinion , were born or out of diapers. The only reason your crying imo is because Senna drove for McLaren, who can do no wrong

Eddie Irvine "Insurance claim there"typical irish humour, brilliant
Honestly, in this case, what was Irvine suppose to do. Ignore the large amount of openings Senna was giving him. They were equally fast, they were racing, that's racing.
Definition of a blue flagA lapped car must allow the faster car past after seeing a maximum of three blue flags or risk being penalised.
Simple as, Senna wasn't faster.

And the Fact he drove for Mclaren is a Bonus.

The only fact is, that we all have our own opinions on who is the greatest.

Denthúl wrote:no seat beltI've heard once upon a time, they actually believed it was safer to be ejected from the car during an accident. And I've seen video from around 1910-1930-ish of drivers actually flying from their cars. Complete insanity if you ask me, racing with zero protective gear, at speeds of 100MPH+, expecting to go flying out of your ride if you make contact with anything.
