At the peak of their respective careers, Senna and Prost engaged in F1’s greatest rivalry. This feud set the standard by which all others are now judged – a standard that has never been matched. In one corner you had the calculated, ultra efficient and composed Frenchmen – in the other, the impulsive Brazilian, willing to win at any cost.
The two major flashpoints between the drivers occurred in the ‘89 title decider and the penultimate race in ’90. The first saw Prost go into the season finale with a 5-point lead. In perhaps F1’s most notorious driving incident, both men locked wheels and ground to a complete standstill. The clash put Prost out of the race, while Senna received an illegal push restart from the marshals, missing a portion of the lap in the process. He was subsequently disqualified from the race and Prost won the drivers’ title. After all this conflict Prost moved to Ferrari, even stipulating in his contract that Senna could under no circumstances be brought in as his teammate.
Heading into the Japanese Grand Prix the following year, the roles were reversed and the title was within Senna’s grasp. The pair lined up one and two on the grid, Senna then Prost. Prior to the race, Senna was unhappy that the pole-sitter was on the dirty side of the track. He stated that if Prost overtook him off the start that he would not play it safe and would try to reclaim the position at the first corner. And that’s exactly how it went. Prost got the better start and led the Brazilian into the first corner, where Senna crashed into the side of the Ferrari, taking both men out of the race. Senna won the title that day, though his tactic to take Prost out of the race was hardly concealed.
