Ayrton Senna's Incredible Throttle Technique

[JUTINPDX]

That video of Senna testing the NSX at Suzuka is legendary… beautiful display of his mastery of driving on the limit.😮

We miss you Ayrton Senna, we love you legend

A Magician. A Maestro. He is definitely one of "those" who are born every ones in a while and will change and influence his field. This is the legendary Ayrton Senna.

What I remember most about Senna was his no hesitation bravery to stop his car mid race and run to help a fellow driver who had a heavy crash. Leaving him unable to exit his wrecked smoking vehicle.

I didn't know Senna was driving on keyboard

To this day I mourn his loss, I was very young when he died and developed an interest in F1 long after his death. But to this day when ever I watch his races, I feel just in awe of this mans skills.

Those were the days. I usually fall asleep warching F1 these days.

Who ever owns a sim rig, try out his Lotus 98T. This thing is a beast! When the Turbo hits, you´re so fast off the track, its amazing. I wouldn´t be brave enough to go full speed with it in real life. Senna made it legendary.

“The normal technique on corner entry is to keep as smooth as possible, ” explains Takeo Kiuchi, Senna's Honda race engineer of 1990-92. “But Ayrton would use the throttle to put more torque through the tyre and change the yaw, a little bit each time. This way he could get a better trajectory before the apex without as much steering."

High RPM engines starts to push torque and HP at +11.000, so Ayrton kicks the throttle alongside the clutch to keep the engine in the exact RPM needed to exit the corner with maximum torque available

A legend. I wish he was with us. Remarkable man, and driver.

Senna kept the car on the very edge all the time and he could even do it in the pouring rain. He was all about driver safety and track safety....just a true legendary driver and the perfect balance between superstar and embassidor of the sport. He was loved. For he loved.

Beautifully explained. That’s his way of testing the car’s grip and balance.

If you’ve done any powersliding aka “drifting”, u might have found urself unconsciously doing it. You can also check out videos of people sliding, and you will see that they do the same.

The throttle blipping technique is exactly the same, Senna just took it to its highest most extreme form, with the precision required of an F-1 champion.

I’ve also heard this story that senna wasn’t very good at motor skills, so as a young kid racing karts he had to compensate for that somehow, and that lead him to this technique. I don’t know how true that is though.

Thank u for uploading 🔥🔥🔥

Not by stats, but just by pure talent, he is the true drivers driver, and the greatest of all time

[thegarlicbread]

I always assumed that the technique was about keeping the rear end a little loose, so as to maintain the slip angle when going through a turn and maximize the rotation of the car without spinning.

[fergabmmx]

I learned on Gran Tourismo 2 to never touch the brakes or stop accelerating on curves only acceleration control like this was the solution to mantain speed on the curve without slamming the wall or getting pass

[moremiatas]

Me on my race sim punching my throttle convincing myself in the mfn goat 😂😂😂

[AberdeenAnthony]

Watch his rain racing it's absolutely incredible.

[hassanfawad]

Senna doesn't need traction control.
Senna was the traction control ❤❤
