I've always remembered that bit of footage. It stinks of Balestre enforcing protocol ("get on the podium immediately!") and also not wanting his thunder stolen. Senna and Boutsen look very "what's up with 'im?! Typical Jean-Marie innit?!".

Great share👌The Senna/Prost rivalry was fascinating and it's also interesting to see Boutsen interviewed here, where he was ultimately disqualified along with Nannini after the season had ended, which meant Capelli unknowingly at the time scored his first podium here.

Extreme lucidity displayed by Prost. The point system forced him to drop many points and because the McLarens were so dominant and reliable only wins counted. Funny how Senna started at McLaren with a short haircut and then let it grow to match Prost's hair length 😂

it is somewhat typical of all those truly dedicated to their profession or business.

That may be.According to Senna's chief mechanic,at times Senna asked for his car to be fitted with the same set up of Alain's car.The point is that Senna had a unique capability to master a car whatever the set up ! He could get a good performance out of Prost personal car while Prost wasn't able to the same.They had such a different driving style.The frenchman was hell fast and consistent in the race and sometimes even quicker than Senna when the car was perfectly fitting his own driving style though.

Mate, don't be fooled by one picture. Balestre was very severe with all drivers and he loved them all. His safety record is second to none. If you don't trut me, trust Senna; in 1991, when Balestre presented Ayrton with his third title, the Brazilian offered him a valuable present : his iconic yellow helmet. That was a gesture of gratitude and respect.

@@alessio4832 That is an unfounded lie. Under Balestre Piquet won three titles (of which a dodgy one due to fuel quality) and Senna won three titles (of which one was acquired thanks to the dropping point system and another one thanks to a criminal move). Did Arnoux win a title? Did Tambay? Did Pironi? Did Alesi? All French and pretty good too, all racing under Balestre. Repeating a lie doesn't make it true The truth is that the best driver was Alain Prost. Every single relevant result shows it. Oh, and the second best was not Senna. It was Piquet. Yes. You read correctly. Piquest is the only driver to have won two titles without driving the best car. Prost and Schumacher managed 1 each. Senna only won while driving the best car. Now, if your favourite driver is Senna, you can worship him all you like but don't you dare pretend he was superior to Prost as he clearly is not. When Senna won his first title in 1988 he'd insisted Prosr was the best. In 1993, when Prost retired as a champion Senna admitted yet again that Prosr was the best he'd ever competed against. Prost regarded Senna as a fierce, fast, dangerous and special driver. He lost both his greatest rival and a friend. As to Balestre, he was devastated by Senna's death. In 1991, when Balestre presented Senna with his third and last title at the Automobile Club de France in Paris, Senna offered the FIA president his helmet. That rare gesture was a tribute, a mark of respect and admiration from Senna to Balestre.
