Pierre Gasly and Naomi Schiff drive Ayrton Senna's FIRST F1 car 💛💚 

As a Toleman fan who followed the team in the early 80's this was great to watch. 40 years ago and in the year we also lost Ted Toleman, thanks for doing this.

I was 11 years old, when i saw Senna in this car.....see this helmet in this car again, gave me goosebumps and the Monaco race in my mind

I have to appreciate Gasly kind words on Senna after watching Senna drive live so many lazy Sundays growing up.

Pierre has been a Senna fan based on his previous interviews and he even helped with the charity events for Ayrton Senna's foundation or charity institution. Pierre is such a kind-hearted person and he deserves this opportunity. So happy for you, Pierre! ❤😊

What an era it must be to witness all of these live on track

Fantastic to see and hear. One overlooked link is that Pierre's current team, Alpine is the direct descendant of the Toleman team. Often called the "Enstone Team". If memory gets this sequence right; Toleman, Benetton, Renault, Lotus, Renault, Alpine.

@SkySportsF1, can you PRETTY PLEASE make a Playlist of people driving old and cool vehicles PRETTY PLEASE instead of finding them?

This was good. Real good. Pierre is a cool driver, but Naomi in that car was "oooh goosebumps." Not only does she look good in racing overalls, but she can drive and seeing how she loved this treasure, it shows that she knows her stuff. Sky, do more of these. With Naomi too.

Martin should have a run too!!

Hey Racers... I am an 88 year of make... so not quite your generation... And sometimes I really had my struggles to understand your generation. BUT what you both did for the honor of Ayrton Senna... thats incredible... its so nice to see that even your generation has not forgotten Senna! And to be honest: you both managed the stickshift really well! For me there is one simple thing for sure: if somebody fire up one of Ayrtons cars then the magic happens... Ayrton is alive in every single piston with every single ignition. Pierre and Naomi you are the top of your generation... and both great humans. some of the kind that dont laugh at older generations, some of the kind which look back and smile because of honor, respect and missing good people. go ahead and all the best... I hope there is always those little bit of space and time between you and a crash...stay well and stay fast...

The modern helmet Gasly commemorating Senna looks great and like the classic inline colour he had in the foam padding. That car is visceral and raw and like the sound.

For information, Toleman was the foundations of what Alpine is today (basically the whole Enstone factory). This is an incredible opportunity for Pierre, I would probably cry if I was him :')

Quite an emotional moment for me I can’t even imagine how you two felt

What an experience that had to be for those two, almost dreamlike. Especially with the kind of grey overcast weather, that seemed to add an almost surreal atmosphere to the scene. Like they might have woken up the next day and thought... "wait... wow, that really happened!". Also good for making a guy feel old (I'm close to the same age as Brundle), remembering watching Senna race the car on TV, now seeing it driven by people who were not even born until years later.

SENNA LEGEND FOREVER ❤😊

I'm a Senna fan since 1988 i was a little boy started watching f1 about 11 years old without somebody ever telling me f1 existed. Now i also would like to drive 1 of Senna's car, i think i deserved that too.

Cada lembrança do Senna é uma profunda viagem no tempo. Gasly e Naom, não eram nascidos quando o homem partiu, mesmo assim todos o admiram. Não há nacionalidade, classe social, religião ou qualquer outra coisa que não conheça ou feitos de Airton Senna.

Great tribute to the legendary Brazilian driver

Rei do Senna melhor do mundo e eterno e herói Senna 30 anos sem vitórias e alegres todos domingo sem Senna saudades pra sempre te amo Senna becão 👑🇧🇷👑🇧🇷💚💛💙🙏🏻 gratidão Senna te amo nosso coração tá vivo pra sempre amém fé paz amém 🙏🏻👑🇧🇷

Such a cool looking car. I wish cars could look and drive like this again.

とても素晴らしい走り～最高～‼️❤️💕アイヨ～❤️💕☀️😂😂🐍🐨🐨🐳💐💐💓💓❤️🎊🎊🐶🐶🎶😄😆😆😉🤣😍💮

Well done!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 really happy to listen that Senna is inspiration to Gasly!

It makes you realise how soulless the current cars are. Whenver modern drivers get the opportunity to drive a historic car, they're always blown away by the experience.

Lifetime memories for 2 very lucky people ......❤❤

Ayrton Senna 🙏👌👌

also shout out for giving Naomi the opportunity to drive as well!

ガスリーだ！ セナのトールマンをドライブする姿は感動する

Nice tribute, merci Pierre!

What an opportunity for them. So cool. Well done Pierre and Naomi.

Knowing full well the extent of Ayrton's talent, my admiration for Allain only grew in these last decades. I feel French single-seater drivers, of which Pierre is currently the more rounded one, could benefit from studying more under Le Professeur. When you're young you tend to root for the fastest on track, but age has this way of teaching you to appreciate smarts. Allain was never as quick, but he's one of the best race strategists of all times. He was Scott Dixon before Scott Dixon, always putting himself in the position to capitalise on the smallest mistakes anyone made, and that won him three F1 championships.

SENNA 👑

It was great to see the word HART and Senna won at Mondello Park.

Great clip. Well done N&P.

Oh the memories of seeing that dreadful race when the world lost Ayrton. It hurts but its wonderful seeing that car driven again. Thank you all. This brought tears to my eyes, fantastic! Thank you so much

Obrigado, Pierre

Stunning car

I‘ve seen Senna in this at the Hockenheim GP but was a fan of Piquet in the Brabham BMW. That was a great time with great looking F1 cars, not as big and fat as today.

never thought i would say this about sky but this video is amazing

They need to learn about Jim Clark

People today don’t really understand the impact that people like Senna and sport had back in those days. I tried to explain to people the impact that Australia had when they won the America’s Cup in 1983. Don’t get it. I think events like that and drivers like Senna , bands like the Beatles will never be repeated again which is very sad.

Gasly is one of the last people I have lined up to drive Senna's car.

Pretty sure that’s the 4 cylinder 1.5 litre turbocharged engine..? We live in such a superficial age…they never even mentioned the engine, which is at the heart of any racing car!

Amazing thing to see. And it puts current F1 in the spotlight in a bad way. These cars, the sounds and driving experiences is what it should be. Not these big heavy weird things they have to hustle around now.

That car slaps 🤩

The older that era of F1 cars gets, the more beautiful the look and sound.

Senna is the one 👑

Great video. Thanks.

Fantastic experience!

great video!

🇧🇷 Ayrton Senna um grande Homem!! Um grande Piloto.♥️

If you could pick one of Sennas cars to drive it would be the MP4/4.. but driving his first F1 car comes close.. Well any opportunity to drive a Senna car is special.

Wonderful!!

Senna ☺️🏁🏎️💨🥰😳😊

Toleman went through Benetton , then Renault then Alpine, so the lineage is there. Small, light, nimble these old F1 cars, unlike today's trucks .😬

Who else thought Gasly would say "Bring back the V12" 🤣

This is a W right here

Great piece of F1 on SKY !

Thank you for this.

Please FIA Bring back manual transmission & V10 engines to F1 😋

The goat, senna!

Amazing Helmet

Formula 1 should create a league where they drive this type of car

I wish they showed the outtakes! How quickly did he learn to shift the car without stalling?

Very very cool but I would like to see this pushed harder. It's like Vettel's run in the other car, they don't seem to push it hard enough. Not sure if they can't (those cars were REALLY hard to drive) or if they're not allowed but damn I wish they could drive them as they were meant to be driven 😆

Finally a proper car to drive for Pierre 👌

Why isnt Seb hosting these? Seb, Brundle and a young guest. Seb and Martin truly appreciate the old days.

I'm surprised Pierre wasn't asked how it felt driving a significantly smaller, lighter car than his current Alpine.

I would’ve liked to have seen Senna’s 2 biggest fans; Lewis and Alonso driving that car

Such a cool videos. Thank you Naomi and Pierre for bringing this to us. 💚💛🏁

we should make small car like that

Just another reason to go back to analog F1 cars

ครับ

I've been alive, but back then, we didn't have Eurosport or any channel to witness F1. And tbh, I wish we had someone else in this video. Wish it were Alonso instead. Who knows what he's talking about.

He would have won Monaco (84) in this car, but Prost got scared of him and asked to finish the race before Senna could overtake him…

I can't think of anyone less deserving to drive the car than Schiff.

Senna had done more than people knew in his home country of Brazil. His legacy lives on with his charity foundation.

Is there a plan for anything at Silverstone to remember Senna this year?

I think this Toleman is faster than his actual Alpine.

Naomi so fine

Naomi is such a catch.

THANKS ❤

Not my favorite era of cars, but much better than today’s overweight boats. The early ‘90s and early/mid 2000s easily had the coolest cars of all time. Bring back smaller, lighter cars. Bring back N/A engines on synthetic fuels. Bring back the REAL Formula One.

Good job that they didn't let Ocon in the car it would probably be in the wall.

Proficiat Naomi. 😘

Nobody wants to drive the Simtek of Ratzenberger?

At last Pierre has car he could probably win in!

What year did they race those cars? Looks very anemic.

I'd like to see Sky put Danica in an F1 car and see what she thinks of it.

the production of this video looks like it's from 2013. Washed out, shallow focal length, low frame rate, a lot of strange artifacts on the complex areas.

Should have put Martin Brundle in the car instead of that Schiff. He would have driven the car as it should have been

i thought segafredo was related to cigarettes but absolutely not 😂 well, coffee is also kind of a drug, in some ways 😜

Who is Naomi Schiff? Who? And I mean who? And why should we be enamoured that she drives the car of the late great Ayrton Senna?

Totally unacceptable to let the girl driving Senna's car. We all know why they did that.

Glad the car is still intact after they let an amateur like Naomi Schiff drive it! 🤣

💚💛💚💛

Gasly sounds like Vettel:)

make f1 simple again. no more hundred buttons on the streering wheel.

Pierre looks like Benedict Cumberbatch.

This car was one of the worst on the grid, Ayrton Senna almost won the Monaco GP with this car starting from 13th, taking 3 secs a lap from Prost time. Ayrton is a legend for sure.

Is it martin Brundles car?
