Jenson & Lewis meet up with a hero of the past: Ayrton Senna's legendary MP4-4

[@still_guns]

I can't believe that somewhere out there, there is a warehouse FULL of old F1 cars. Makes me giddy.

[@The_Curious_Cat]

I think this was before they built the big headquarters they have now, so some of these cars are displayed in the building, others on the museum section and the rest probably under the building, in some storage facility...

[@RB747domme]

Curious Cat the McLaren Technology Centre was built way before Jenson and Lewis visited this warehouse... .. however this warehouse isn't at the Technology Centre. And for obvious reasons, it's exact location is unknown to the public. All employees are asked not to reveal it to their friends. And apparently, the insurance on the building and contents, for fire and theft, is astronomical. It's in the millions. But what I can reveal, is that it IS near Berkshire.

[@RB747domme]

ConnorPlaysGamez yes, some very nice collectibles indeed. 😀😊😁🤗😎🤔

[@lop1942]

Curious Cat I have been to the technology centre, they have hidden rooms full of thousands or old F1 cars

[@alanhutchins5916]

Hallowed ground indeed.....

[@ibzit2]

I like how when lewis gets in, he just seems to be immersed in his thoughts, just like a child, dreaming of driving that car

[@projectjt3149]

I find it odd actually because he's already done that with Top Gear years before he came back with Jenson. Either he has bad memory or that's how special the influence of Senna has on him

[@onefastslimjim]

@@projectjt3149 Thats not bad memory. Unless you had Alzheimers, I don't think a single person in the world would forget an experience like that.

[@frankwaugh1894]

2 laps from perfection. Greatest f1 car of all time If I won the lotto I would pay whatever it took to own an mp 4/4 driven be Senna. I cried the day he died...to me I will ALWAYS see that yellow helmet in a Honda McLaren. It took me over 30 years but finally got a full race replica of Senna's 1991 helmet.

[@danielculyer8533]

You can see just how much this moment means to both of them, but Lewis in particular. Senna was his idol, and the awe he felt after sitting in the same car the greatest of all time sat in is iconic.

[@trapzzlol1098]

Daniel Culyer Imagine Michael Schumacher in this Room he would start crying

[@nunyabusinessmate420]

Lewis I think drove it on Top Gear once

[@Carlos27thFS]

And why wouldn't he? Senna was only the baddest motherfucker to ever get behind the wheel of a F1 car.

[@arg0nauta]

You can feel Hamilton's admiration for Senna ...

[@snowman01]

Imagine what kids today will think of Alonso's classic 2017 orange Honda... "Remember that race where it almost finished. Wow, what a special car!"

Ayrton Senna the best F1 Pilot ever. McLaren, please a museum and a documentary/ film about the pilots that drove your amazing cars.

[@liams080172]

I love the way Lewis imitates the sound of the car as if he's driving it when sat in the cockpit. How many of us as 4 year olds have done that sitting in the driving seat of our dads saloon car. Brilliant absoloutely brilliant!!!

[@josephb9377]

For some reason my eyes got a little wet watching this. There's a lot of emotion in that room, in that car, and this video really captured it for me.

[@Moss235]

+Joseph B you could have made a Senna movie scene based on these three minutes

[@rennji460]

[@thomasdacosta517]

Who's here after Lewis drove Ayrton's car in Interlagos? Such a special moment

[@edwardfirth49]

I love that bit at 2.10 wheres they both go very quiet, you can almost feel what they are thinking. Love when Hamilton says, ' I think I'd just treasure the moment'.

[@CherryBlossomRed08]

that garage gives me goosebumps, each one of those machines have a soul to them

[@vidaamericana360]

truye words bro.. so many souls of great drivers.. I can imagine they living there today! great words!

[@xDRAGONSTARx]

Senna v Prost, was one of the greatest sporting rivalries of all time. For those not born in that era, it was unbelievable. Today, things are all "commercial" ie, for the money. Back then, it was pure racing and pride. Prost is one of the greatest ever. He deserves all the accolades, but Senna WAS better. Maybe not on a "technical" term, but as far as pure instinctive racing, no-one at the time could match him, or since, particularly in wet conditions. What a champion!! Senna all the way!!!!!

[@chrissturgess4323]

You can see the respect they have for senna ... brilliant clip 👍

[@mcolmx]

Observe Lewis' eyes (2:15) while he looks the car. There is a moment of silence as if it was a deep sense of respect of these superb drivers to their legendary idol, Ayrton Senna. Amazing!

[@jdmk20aek]

this is an INCREDIBLE video, i loved the silent moment when he said Senna raced this actual car.......SO COOL !!

[@Mike_6691]

this was 1 of the greatest videos ive watched u can just see how proud they both are to be in a position to just be able to go and sit in ayrton sennas mp4.4 , amazing

[@davidsmith4083]

you can tell that just sitting in the car actually means something to lewis

[@hughbarned7660]

What a moment to witness, 2: 14 to 2 : 16. Hamilton sitting in Senna's MP4/4 having a deep emotional reflective moment on his hero

[@Orenchis]

Stunning !! the quiet part with Lewis near the end was great, I wonder what he was thinking right at that moment. Please make more of these videos. We love to see our boys getting along on and off the track. The amount of history contained under one roof is amazing.

[@msanches1967]

É estranho...Qdo falam de Senna, nós, brasileiros, sentimos como se estivessem falando de nós, de mim, aqui.....Senna foi além da pilotagem. Ele despertou num povo sofrido a dignidade, o respeito e o trabalho num momento onde o Brasil necessitava e muito de pessoas como ele, de verdadeiros heróis. O legado dele para o Brasil é inestimável e inesquecível. Agradeço por ter vivido e visto a história acontecer e ser escrita. A década de 80, é sem dúvida, talvez, a melhor das décadas.

[@GamessF1]

Can tell lewis studied the cars

[@piericsamaire7513]

Ayrton senna always with us 💓💓💓👍🌍🌍thanks for all!!

[@billbobaggins801]

The man the myth! Senna! Amazing man behind the wheel of a car!

[@Goron333]

2:06 when Lewis 'this is the car he actually drove'; he's getting so emotional! Great to see.

[@weallfollowmanutd]

I really like how humble Lewis is when he gets in the car. For all the money he earns, you can tell the respect he has for sitting in the same car Senna drove. You can sense the emotion he has when he says 'he'd tiptoe' around the track if he drove one to live for the moment.

[@innerstand.]

I love it when they're looking back and forrth like they're watching a tennis match. The picture taking. And that moment of silence... great to see them driving Prost's car at Goodwood last weekend. And Bruno drove another of his uncle's cars. (this time the gearbox survived.) would love to have seen Hamilton and Button in both Prost and Senna's cars. great vid!

[@Exevium]

You can never compare a driver from now even to a driver from 10 years ago. Ayrton was such a different driver from Lewis, just because of the cars. As the guys said, today it's much smoother. Back then, the car was just trying to rip the steering wheel out of your hands. And don't get me started on the pre-electronics and -downforce era... That was just insane.
