SENNA - Exclusive Clip ('88 Monte Carlo Grand Prix)

Exclusive clip from SENNA, opening in the US beginning August 12. Ayrton Senna describes his almost spiritual experience racing in Monaco, and his feeling of racing "way beyond my conscious understanding".

"That day I suddenly realised that I was no longer driving it conscious. And I was in a different dimension, for me. The circuit for me was a tunnel, which I was just going, going, going. And I realised – I was well beyond my conscious understanding.”

Ayrton Senna.

55 seconds difference in the same car! Senna the best ever!

Man had a psychedelic experience while flying in a F1 car. Not many can say that.

Ayrton Senna is not dead, he is just one lap ahead of everyone...🏁🏁🏁🙏🏻

55 seconds ahead of no. 2... In Monaco? Dear God...

[gilbertobm]

Crashing was irrelevant, Prost winning was irrelevant. He reached perfection on those previous laps. It was the apex of race driving, it's gonna take years for some other driver to reach this peculiar peak.

The moment they tell him to slow down, they distracted him.
He was in genius mode.!
R.I.P LEGEND ❤❤

[mikethomas]

It cracks me up that Ayrton Senna could've won at Monaco seven times because in '88 he was hot-lapping. Legend

[stevesousa]

55 seconds ahead of 4 time world champion Alain Prost, in the same car. Absolute LEGEND!!!

[captainzeppos]

This is why 30 years later we don't care who won that race. This is why true legends are forever. Ayrton Senna, the last true F1 race driver.

[Nikko]

It's amazing that Senna can put himself into a subconscious state that allows him to have almost perfect reaction times. 

[CelicaSainz]

No matter how many years will pass Senna will be the best driver and this bacause he had the ability to drive the whole race like he drove a qualyfying session

I see the comments on unprofessional and so on because of his lead and the crash and the team... when I watch this I see a man in competition with none other than himself. At this point it wasn’t about the race. It was about the purist form of his racing spirit. He was in the zone chasing absolute perfection on the track for himself. I can’t think of a more noble characteristic for a human being. To pursue excellence at the highest level of whatever it is you’re doing. The fact that he crashed I couldn’t care less about. I have the utmost respect for him for going after it. This footage is an example of him growing personally. And the crash, without a doubt, was yet more lesson for him to grow as a human being. It’s beautiful to watch.

Сенна, лучший гонщик за всю историю Формулы-1, ни до, ни после, никто даже близко не смог подойти. Легенду делают не количество побед. Сенна - лучший, навсегда.

He wanted show to everyone to be the greatest driver all time. Was captured and deeply absorbed in a fight against the time. No opponents, nothing else around, just the road and his tempre. Was extremaly conscious, but also totally no conscious about the useless to push at the limit. In front of him only one opponent: himself. Extraordinary images for understund the man behind the legend...

[vbvogas]

His unique technique (especially under the rain), his obsession to win, his courage to keep pushing it to the limit when nobody else would do so, his incomparable speed, his unbelievable laps in qualifying, the miracles he performed (mostly when didn’t have the fastest car in his hands): that’s why Ayrton Senna da Silva will always be simply the best.

"when you no longer go for a gap that exists you are no longer a racing driver"

-Ayrton Senna

[josephbacash]

That's incredible, he said he was in a tunnel and no control over himself, that is just exactly another dimension, he was so in tune that fear had no hold whatsoever. What a feeling that

[WesRider]

A intenção dele era simplesmente colocar uma volta em cima do segundo colocado, o Alan Prost. Se tivesse conseguido, seria um feito extraordinário. Um recorde absoluto que certamente não seria feito por mais ninguém na história da F1 nesta pista.

gets told to slow down, crashes car. only way he knows to slow down
