you call Alonso and Hamilton merely a reasonably strong driver pairing? I think thats the strongest pairing in the history of the sport since Senna/Prost!

On paper I said. A rookie driver is always going to be a weak point, albeit to varying degrees.

The Prost/Senna pairing was ruined by one thing - Senna!

Hamilton and Alonso pairing had such huge potential. I think the problem was no one expected Lewis' speed........except Lewis. And when he showed that speed 'Mclaren didn't handle the situation well.
They clearly knew what potential Lewis had, but not that he'd be on it straight away. Otherwise they wouldn't have debated so long whether he was ready for the f1 seat. Also I recently saw something about Lewis' entry to F1,
Lewis was talking about just before his first quali and he said Ron took him aside and said " Dont worry if you're half a second off Alonso's pace". Lewis' reply(not to Ron but in the article) I wasn't worried, because I knew I wouldn't be.
They underestimated Lewis and then couldn't handle the fallout.

When they did realise he had the speed immediately they played fair by him and gave him equal opportunity, which pissed off Alonso.

Did he ! Senna was an arrogant jerk, albeit a talented one. Prost played so dirty that Senna drove into him! Good one.

Prost deliberately turned into Senna,the sore loser was annoyed about being beaten,he decided to cost a 1-2 for a sake of the title,and he thought he was being treated unfairly.




Prost is a coward(arrogant),Senna is a legend he owned him in many ways remember Germany 1991,Prost was sulking after he stalled while tryingto pass the McLaren

No he didn't. How can you turn in on someone who is on your left going into a right hand corner?

You're wrong. Prost is one of the true greats and would not call any F1 drvier a coward, especially one from years gone by where safety was not what it is today.

Senna did,anyway Prost is great,Senna is better,Prost turned right in a right chicane when Senna was on the inside,Jean Mare Balestre was French so it was always abit biased.

Senna is not better in my humble opinion (which clearly differes from your humble opinion). So when did Prost turn in on Senna? I recall Prost trying to take the first corner in Japan and Senna deciding he'd go straight on.

For sure Prost had the racing line but where would Senna go

[andrew]

The brakes are always an option.

Prost was awesome.

[racechick]

Prost is French. He had Balestre on his side, and he screwed with Senna. Senna payed back. And Senna was the better driver.

If u noticed Senna was braking,notice the hand on the gearlever shifting down

He should have given Prost more room then.

In the Senna movie, Balestre was a friend of Prost,once Prost sulked Jean DSQ Senna,its true not conspracy


Senna was alongside the grass,Prost turned in early to take him out

[andrew]

I think Prost gave him plenty of room.

What an extraordinary and potentially endless discussion.
