Ayrton Senna's INCREDIBLE rise to Formula 1 

Especially when he punted into Prost like a delusional loser

Jermey 😂😂😂

That's was Senna's style, it wasn't a new thing he did, his style of racing is going for a move, and letting the other driver decide whether to have to crash or not, and apparently Prost chose to crash, because he knew the fia ceo would side with him and give him the championship​@@MrMustache-yn4zm

How long was it used for? Just curious if Massa also got to have his victories played out with this theme over there or not.

@@zeroelus Technically it could be used until Rede Globo lost the broadcasting rights for Formula 1 back in 2020. But it was played live for the last time in 2009 after Barrichello's last victory in Monza

Oh, another fun fact is that the Tema da Vitória's debut happened when Alain Prost won the 1984 Brazilian GP

I hope that Band tries to get the rights for the song once Drugovich or Rafa Câmara, or any other Brazilian driver, are driving a car that has actual chances of winning in Interlagos... Either that or I just hope they are fine with the idea of getting sued and play it anyway, because I can't stand the fact that the last time I remember it being played was in Interlagos 2008 (I had to take a break after Hungary 2009, so I didn't watch Rubinho's wins in 2009)...

@@Fidel9209 Obrigado!

Galvão e o tema da Vitória. Só podia dar Ayrton…🥹

Achei muito bom também. Deu até arrepio!

Fuck Nelson Piquet. From Formula One champion to cattle's chauffeur

Mississippian, you mean

How do u live now?

Right in the pumper? You got hit in the ass?

It's worth saying that Senna never had the best equipment when kart racing. But yes, it was one of his biggest non-achievements, he mentioned that many times.

With one of the coolest names ever, to be fair.

Ah yes, the incredible backstory of Lake Speed, one of the most unusual one-win wonders in NASCAR history. Makes you wonder how he did it.

@@thestarlightalchemist7333 Some people have their thing.

@@thestarlightalchemist7333 kinda makes you wonder if Speed should’ve gone into road racing

Yeah else you wont get into r1 right

I mean, they definitely wasnt poor, but also definitely wasnt that rich like NA or Europe pay drivers

Since you are Brazilian, is this how you pronounce his first name..? It sounds so different from how others pronounce it.

@@miker7920 i mean, Josh is trying his best to pronounce as we do here we pronounce like "ierton" (using english pronouncing rules)

Was there last year, and had to call my father, who grew up with Senna being his biggest hero. Such a place

@@andreluizbutzkedallacorte5242 yeah i was there with friends who knew nothing about him or f1 and they took their time with me to visit the place, we were roadtripping through Bologna and other nearby places.

@@saqtef Any comments from your friends who knew nothing about him or F1? What were their impressions?

@@samy29987 When I told them about the 3 million people who came to this funeral in Brazil they were speechless, I told them that he was a huge celebrity in Brazil.

Schumacher, Hamilton, Prost?

Jim Clark deserves a mention too. Only had two championships, but was leagues ahead of his rivals at the time and could’ve won much more had it not been for his fatal crash at Hockenheim.

@@josephchao7078 Nice try, but it has to be Senna, Schumacher, and Clark or Fangio (whoever you prefer).

@@thisusernamewasnttakensomehow would have won more

I really only think of 2. Schumi and Senna. Hamilton doesn‘t even come close imo.

I was gonna put that down as well. Big smile and a tear. Ayrton para sempre

Senna sempre meu irmao! que saudade ne! bons tempos.. hoje vivemos em guerra ai no brasil por causa de politicos. que saudade do ayrton!

I guess Fangio and Clark wasn't considered such before Senna?

@@lorddrac_dontaskmetodance Of course they were, they still are, along with Senna and Schumacher.

I thought we learned there was no “one goat” or “OG goat” there was a great in every era.

Dude wasn't even the GOAT of his era--that honor goes to Prost. He's only the GOAT for Brazilians and people who liked his over-sensationalized movie.

He went 50/50 with prost in Equal machinery and lost out of overall points gained over the 2 years.

Thats true, dale was amazing! balls of steel... just like senna!

Very true. And Dale respected Senna and was known to watch Formula 1 races when he could. And when he won the race just after Senna passed the first thing he did in victory lane was give condolences to Senna's family.

Yup👏👏

This could be their most sensible strategy yet

same here

ayrton senna is more comparable to kobe bryant imo, great player/driver that has been regarded as the goat even though there are better options, a lot loved them after their careers ended and influenced many within in their own sport e.g., lewis hamilton and devin booker but only a handful know they did something dodgy - senna dating a 15 year old and kobe doing something very unacceptable in a colorado hotel room in 2003

@Nigel Gearsley Stan Account to be honest, I don't know enough about basketball to make a judgement on him. However, what I will say is that the reason I used Dale Earnhardt is because of the things they did to get their way on track. Dale Earnhardt was nicknamed "The Intimidator," if he filled the rear view mirrors of the car ahead, he would either make a clean pass or just punt them out of the way. In many ways, Senna was similar. 1989 Japanese Grand Prix, the Casino Triangle. Firstly, against Alain Prost. Senna positions his car to dive bomb his arch rival, but Prost (rightly or wrongly) sees it coming and turns in early, knowing that in the event of them both retiring, he'd come out on top in the championship, and they collided. Shortly afterwards, same corner, same race, Senna, having pitted for a new nose, hunted down new race leader, Alessandro Nannini. As the race drew to a close, Senna dived inside Nannini at the same place he collided with Prost. However this time, Nannini, just wanting to finish the race, locked his brakes upon seeing Senna suddenly in his rear view mirrors and opened the door for Senna to overtake. Let's use an example for Dale Earnhardt. 1993 Coca Cola 600, he found himself back in the pack due to a pit penalty. He needed a Caution to get into contention. What does he do then? He decides to take matters into his own hands, causing a Caution himself by spinning out the car he was racing, of Greg Sachs. NASCAR, less than impressed at this, held him in the pits for a lap as a punishment. This didn't deter Earnhardt who out of tenacity and spite ended up overcoming this without any more Cautions to help him and he went on to win the race anyway. What I'm trying to say is that like Senna, Earnhardt used his driving to either win fans or enemies. They would both keep their rivals guessing about what they'd do to get past. Will they race them clean, or will they use dirty tactics?

@@SiVlog1989 wow TIL.....nice detailed summary there. thanks

@@nigelgearsleystanaccount66bh the legal age of consent in Brazil is 14 so it’s not illegal but it still feels a tad weird I remember being absolutely flabbergasted hearing abt it

@@cay7809 legal doesn't equal moral

portugese pronunciation is closer to what josh revell is saying
