What happened at imola in '82

[oblique dock]

Ferrari ordered Gilles and Didier to slow down, while Gilles interpreted as an order to maintain position. Pironi then passed Villeneuve later on, causing Villeneuve to become angry with him. Villeneuve swore that he’ll never speak to Pironi again.

[round swift]

Interesting

I don’t know who to blame now for that crash

[round swift]

Bad luck

The cars maybe, but i don't think neither Gilles nor Jochen were to blame

[gaunt rover]

only thing you can really blame is the shit seats

[round swift]

wdym by seat, the position in the cockpit?

[gaunt rover]

seat broke off of the car pitching him out

also made by the same company with a very shit record with good racing seats

[round swift]

oh ok, thought it was the harness that broke

Thousands of kilometers away, in Modena, an 84-year-old man collapses with grief, exhausted by hours of anguish. Enzo Ferrari harbored an almost fatherly feeling for Villeneuve. Never perhaps had he loved and admired one of his pilots so much. For him, Villeneuve was the best of all since the great Nuvolari. This drama highlights the humanity and the fragility of the Commendatore, frozen, statufied during his lifetime in his role of feared and inflexible patriarch.

[icy veldt]

listened to a great interview once... dont remem who. some old driver, maybe raced for ferrari in sportscars (guessing). they summarized that the room was full of cacophony of human voices with food on the table. engineers arguing, drivers speaking etc. Enzo entered and then there was a pin drop silence. he sat down and said something into someone's ear. then he started eating and the chaos we had before broke out as well as everyone started to eat

cant remem the driver... maybe derek bell? one of the old guard

that era

it was the first meeting the driver had with enzo.. and well, no one he had seen b4 had that power

[round swift]

not sure Derek Bell drove for him, but ye that sounds like peak Enzo era

when Piquet and Mansell were the favorites, but both lost the title due to Mansell's tyre puncturing and Piquet being made to pit just in case

also the only time in the 1980's when the same driver won for 2 consecutive years

[round swift]

it was the first time since Brabham in 1959 and 1960 a driver won the title 2 consecutive years

really rare occurences then

[woven zinc]

yeah, and then it happened thrice in the 1990s (Senna 90-91, Schumi 94-95 and Häkkinen 98-99), and well the 2000s had the whole first half of the decade be won by Schumi

[round swift]

yep, now it's almost the norm

comes down to reliability as well.

reliability was increasing exponentially year after year. i wonder when it really shot up.. like today

And then his car wouldnt stop for a while

Hamilton has suffered five specific instances of debilitating unreliability this year. They are:

An ERS failure at the start of qualifying in China, relegating him to 22nd on the grid. He finished seventh.
An ERS failure during Q3 in Russia, restricting the Mercedes driver to 10th on the grid. He finished second.
An engine mode issue during the European GP. He finished fifth having started in 10th following a crash in qualifying.
A hydraulics fault during Practice Two in Singapore which was cited as a critical factor in his defeat to Rosberg. He finished third.
An engine blow-out in Malaysia which cost him an almost-certain victory

1992 WDC: Nigel Mansell (Williams)
1992 WCC: Williams

[meager pewter]

I wonder if Senna would've still persued CART like Mansell

[silent escarp]

Imagine not having to wait 69 years for the next chance

[round swift]

Looks like the toleman wing from 1984 season

[round swift]

It would’ve been close that’s for sure

I personally think that micheal would’ve won the 95 season though

many cars had this in early 1994

[round swift]

Yes because of the ban of pretty much active suspension and other electronic’s

[low valve]

Senna woulda defo won the '94 seasom

I mean hill came so close

So surely senna couldve done it

[low valve]

Sameee gasly is on fire atm

[woven zinc]

they were used in 1993 as well

and as for the 1994 season, I think it would've been a close battle, but Schumi could've definitely won it as well

depends on whether he would've still gotten the 2-race ban he got irl

regardless of how 1994 and 1995 go though I think Senna would've definitely won 1996 and 1997, assuming he would've stayed with Williams past 1995 (which he most likely would've)

[round swift]

Hill came close only because Schumacher got disqualified for two races I believe.

[round swift]

Yeah if senna was still with Williams then Jacques wouldn’t of won the ‘97 championship

Nor be with Williams

[woven zinc]

1996 would've been a slam dunk especially considering how Hill held his own against Villeneuve irl

1997 would've maybe been a little more complicated since Villeneuve did take the fight to Schumi irl and win it

but yeah I can see Senna coming on top then as well

would've likely been a repeat of 1991 in terms of competitiveness

[round swift]

That Ferrari from 1997 was terrible so definitely senna

I think he would’ve retired at the end of the season though

[woven zinc]

yeah

just in time to avoid Williams's decline

[round swift]

Yeah

[woven zinc]

and give Williams 0 and 2 as their race numbers again

I wonder how David Coulthard's and Heinz-Harald Frentzen's careers would've gone if Senna didn't die though

even Damon Hill's tbh, he could've even been axed after 1995 already

[round swift]

David coulthard would still be a test driver 😂

[woven zinc]

yeah he could've definitely ended up as a "could have been" F1 driver

like Anthony Davidson is irl, even though he did do a full year and a half at Super Aguri

[round swift]

Damon would’ve ended up with Jordan though eventually right?

[woven zinc]

perhaps

they did let Irvine go at the end of 95 so maybe he could've gone there then, thus 2 years earlier than irl

[round swift]

Yeah that’s true

Then Berger would retire at the end of the ‘97 season

Same as senna I believe

Senna probably could’ve won 4 or 5 championships

Maybe even 6

But I still think micheal would still win the 94 and 95 season

96 senna and 97 senna possibly

[sour moon]

It’s crazy to think Williams is now bottom field, like… if you told one of the kids watching these days that they are actually emblematic of F1 they’d think you’re pulling their leg

[round swift]

Senna would've won 95 instead of choking like Hill did

The Williams was the fastest car by a short bit

Peak Senna driving would've done the rest

[turbid tundra]

Sadly I'm not that old

[hard chasm]

What if senna wasn't die in imola 1994

[late crag]

He'd be alive past May 1st, 1994

Simple answer

[round swift]

I don’t know didn’t the Benetton have launch control or some crazy illegal shit haha pretty hard to beat that, but all seriousness I think it would’ve been very hard to beat Schumacher in this season

Good car and a experienced driver by then

[hard chasm]

And teach his nephew bruno

[round swift]

“Schumacher won nine races en route to the championship, equalling the record set by Nigel Mansell in 1992. He also continued his rivalry with Williams-Renault driver Damon Hill, including collisions at the British and Italian Grands Prix. Both these races were won by Schumacher's Benetton teammate Johnny Herbert, taking his first two F1 victories. Hill's Williams teammate, David Coulthard, claimed his first victory in Portugal, while Ferrari's Jean Alesi achieved his only F1 victory in Canada. Just like Honda in 1988, Renault engines won all but one race in this season.”

Nine races in a 17 race season wow

Unbelievable

“In 1995, Benetton and Schumacher comfortably won the championship. They weren’t completely unchallenged, despite Schumacher’s 102 points to Hill’s 69, throughout the season the German and the Brit having several collisions, namely at the British, Belgian and Italian Grands Prix.”

No doubt though that the Williams car was faster though I believe Damon out qualified Michael by .6 seconds at the first race I believe

But micheal was the bomb for achieving high consistent fast laps

Isn’t he in second or first for fastest laps

[analog jasper]

didnt they say they never used it

[woven zinc]

the B195 looks so good

[potent tendon]

Indeed

What's so impressive about it, it managed to win the Constructors and Drivers championships despite the poor weight balance it had.

[floral spoke]

yeah

[potent tendon]

Also that was the same thing Schumacher for its predecessor, it was quite twitchy in the rear end, but I guess the integration of the Renault engine made it more of an issue than before.

[round swift]

I don’t know but senna thought that the B194 had it and he was right it either have launch control or traction control…
