From the F1 archive: Donington 1993
Wednesday 7 November 2007
The 1993 European Grand Prix was arguably the highlight of Ayrton Senna’s career. Though he dropped from fourth to fifth at the start, the Brazilian ended the lap in first place, passing Wendlinger, Schumacher, Hill and Prost in the process. Senna went on to set the fastest lap through the pitlane (the speed limit wasn’t imposed until in 1994) and lapped the entire field before taking victory.
Here is a clip from that opening lap, showing all four passing manoeuvres. Jonathon Woss commentates.
Grand Prix Legends has a print of ‘The Greatest Lap’, signed by the two men Senna shared the podium with that day, Damon Hill and Alain Prost.
