The one where Hammond was on the motorcycle.
Do special in Indonesia.. And try our new track at Mandalika circuit
It’s one of the best…. in the (pause) world!
Yes
Senna is a type of laxative
Jeremy is lasting longer without falling asleep when James is explaining things, 3 hours instead of the usual 3 second's 😂
The magnetism of his geniuses can last about 3 hours

seconds, not second's
@@michaelanderson7715 that is the effect of Jeremy's magnetism of genius
@@KingofFray It turns people into grammar idiots?
@@michaelanderson7715 Do you go round making sure everyone has the correct spelling? It is correct, plural more than 1 and few would be the same, and everyone knows what i mean.
Thank God this wasn't Hammond. I couldn't bear to see a Senna upside down on fire.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahhhhhhhhhahhhhhhahha mehe!
The fire would compliment the color nicely, a missed opportunity to not let Hammond drive the car and gift us a beautiful memory.
Seeing as it’s a McLaren it’ll probs catch fire at some point anw
Insurance companies be like MONEY MONEY MONEY
Well then, you'll have a convertible Senna then.
Wow! That brake test really puts things into understandable perspective! Incredible.
And that Jag stops much better than avarage eurobox car you see on the street everyday
Brake tests are a bit if a parlor trick though since it's entirely determined by the size of your front tires, you could equip any passenger car with massive front tires and stop just as fast as the Senna.
Ordinary brakes actually stop just fine so you won't lose a braking contest with consumer model brakes, what cheap brake pads can't do is stop from 200MPH repeatedly, you get to do that once and then the pads need replacing.
@@budthecyborg4575 "Brake tests are a bit if a parlor trick though since it's entirely determined by the size of your front tires" LOLWUT not even close. Don't oversimplify things. A 1700kg passenger car, no matter WHAT size front tires it had, would NEVER be able to out-stop a Senna weighing 400kg less. Period. Mass and braking calibration play a huge role, as do tire compounds (not just tire sizes).
@@spdcrzy "A 1700kg passenger car" With sufficiently large tires would stop faster than the Senna.
@@budthecyborg4575 Road-legal tires? I doubt it. Show me how that works. Contact patch can only take you so far.
The greatest car reviewer of all time.
Word.
Actually, he’s the greatest car reviewer…… in the world.
Anyone remember the piece he did on Aston Martin V12. Truly poignant
Not really because he doesn't review cars he just gives us an entertaining piece of cinematography to watch and learn a little bit about the cars
@@dietznutz1 we all have our opinions but I don't agree. I think he has a bond with cars that just can't be brought. I don't know if you remember, did you remember the Forza 4 intro. If that's not soul or heart. I don't know what is, sometimes you don't need words to describe a car. You just need actions. Just my opinion bud
He did well, I thought 3 hours of May explaining that could put him at risk of falling into a coma.
nah only hammond ends up in a coma
@@davoscookies2980 💀💀
true. most medical experts agree that the maximum recommended dosage of May is 30 mins per day and even that is pushing the limit on permanent damage. 3hrs in one sitting is suicidal
@@jimborat They should have warnings in May's shows. I watched "James May in Japan" and was never aware of the risks
pneumonia not coma
I remember that 24 hour race in the diesel BMW he mentioned doing for the other show he was on. I also remember Abbie monstering the eboladrome in the Senna (she set the track record iirc).
Was it the one sponsored by peniston oils?
Yeah I remember that other show he was on. What was it called again? Gearbox?
yeah it was around 3 seconds faster than the vulcan. On a track that short, that is mental
@@PublicBus09 you ruined it
@@PublicBus09 And Larsen's Biscuits.
Jeremy 's laughing in the end of the clip... is telling everything 🤣👍
😂😂
Jeremy... Still the Best Man who Can Speak about CARS👌🏻🥇
We need a bloodline... nothing going to last forever
He really is. Himself and Harris have an amazing way of getting across the real feel of the car
The Senna will go down in history as one of the greatest cars ever made. Absolutely superb
No idea on that one, its desirable but that doesn't make it great, I've never seen one and probably never will , most likely never own one , how is that great ?
@@jamsstar2010 To be fair, something's availability isn't the only criteria to judge greatness by. The Senna is, by all accounts, an engineering marvel. It's track performance is indisputably excellent. By those metrics, it is great.
I wasn't expecting much, until after watching this video.
@@jamsstar2010 well you also can't own an F2004 or a Bugatti Chiron, that doesn't mean they are not great cars
Too ugly
Anothet tribute to Senna is Honda NSX ...
Tested to perfection by Senna himself, and gave birth to of one of most revered JDM legend
As a F-Type owner that test blew my mind.
The f type did hit the brakes a touch late.
@@YourBestFriendforToday Not 5 minutes late, though...
In the speed awareness course they give to drivers who’ve broken the legal limit they run a similar test in a family car driving at 30 mph but the driver in that video is wearing a crash helmet, fire proof clothing and there is a fire team on standby. Jeremy just did it at 100 mph whilst talking to camera in his jeans and shirt.
Shows what a scam them courses really are
Safety first.......
@@billb7876 They are just compliance humiliation courses with an added tax element. The money probably eventually ends up funding more ZOG war around the world.
@@lukasgarage956 Nah, booga safety, one should either have common sense or let natural selection do its job
@@rattusnorvegicus4380 yeah, people who drive recklessly always harm only themselves and never other people
If you pause right at 4:02 you can see his face being pulled forward by the sheer grip of tire, grab of brakes, and lack of weight. Amazing!
Nice to see a reference to the 24-hour race.
That's one of my favourite challenges.
Just too bad the compilation DVDs skipped the farming challenge that was the setup for the race challenge.
Can get them all on the iplayer though mate
@@ultrascreens5206 Yeah but for how long?
Chances are those will be deleted on a whim at some point.
I was a child when I experienced the crash that killed Ayrton Senna live on TV. Rip brother, you are still remembered
Me too. Not so much a child though.
Fabulous camera work and stunning driving thanque for the clips
The BBC was bloody foolish to allow these chaps to go!
I LOVE the Top Gear reference in this film. He references their 24 hour race in the diesel BMW back in the mid 2000's
"Some Say.... " -Jeremy Clarkson
I’m Brazilian and my family was raised watching F1 and we love SENNA. There are lots of funny stories people have no clue about if SENNA.
One of the stories I’ll say here because it’s 100% true because he admitted to this was of how many fender benders he got into in São Paulo Brazil. Hahahaha
He would race and drive fast everywhere he went and would always get into a accident. They where never big ones but most where his fault. People would get out of their cars pissed until they realized who was driving.
The joke was that people loved those stories and never got upset but loved getting into those accidents purely for the story.
He would always race anywhere he needed to get to anywhere in the city or anywhere in Brazil.
we all loved him
What a beast.Thanks for sharing.Great content as always
01:10 the best Line of all time about the supercar scene of London England
One of the cars I'd have in my dream car garage. Seeing one last year at Goodwood made my weekend.
Saw one of these at mecum, but it wasn’t painted. Green carbon fiber was weaved in to add color.
Absolutely beautiful
The purpose of the window on the door is so the driver can see the edge of the track when turning
No it's not, it's to see the drivers trousers.
@@GTiR23 😂😂😂👍👍👍
got chills when the words "Ayrton Senna" was pronounced.
You know he's a legend when the name just gives you goosebumps
@@thegrandtour exactly
absolutely GOAT.
@@thegrandtour That's a powerful name in places like this.
💯
Clarkson.. the best there ever will be at what he does! theres no question!! A master of his craft.
0:25 "That's a 120, 150, Hundred and Jesus H Christ!" ... Is Jesus H Christ a new form of speed? 🤣
Going that fast that quick, I probably wouldn't eat anything before hand. Just the shear force might make it travel back up when it has you pinned against the seat.
The 24 hour race in that BMW was prime TG 😮💨 that was class
I've never seen a speedo load up that fast past 150. Wow
It is written that all motor vehicles, two or four wheeled, bearing the Senna name, must be totally bad ass.
Yeah, it's an awesome car, no doubt. And this is another entertaining and informative video from Clarkson.
The best car journalism and certainly the most entertaining journalism. Full stop.
That giggle at the end was rather wicked 😁😜
Senna would be honored 🏁🇧🇷
McLaren making this car as a tribute to Senna is beautiful
James May explaining something for 3 hours and going on with no hint of stopping anytime soon, is the most James May thing ever
Wow the stopping test was unreal
Thoroughly impressed. That was absolutely amazing.
I have a new love for this car in Red!!
0:58
No disrespect to the Senna but I wish they could have done a review on the Koenigsegg
@Terminus Est err.....Koenigsegg just broke the track record at Ring Kuntstorp. It broke the record by 0.5 seconds dethroning the previous holder.......The Mclaren Senna. Leave it dead I think not ;)
I would love to have seen Ayrton testing that car in place of Jeremy had he still been around.
Great test and extraordinary supercar
There is an orange one of these on the McLaren Boulevard. It's the LM edition and anyone who see's that body kit would weep like a baby because its so nice.
Jeremy can sell you ice in winter the way he reviews the cars is very impressive
Have you seen his review of the Jaguar XE? 👀 ua-cam.com/video/iIk2q7_cmxg/v-deo.html
@@thegrandtour No i haven't let me check it out now
It's a monster in performance that one. Also in the looks department too..
I'm honored to be entertained by such a natural talent.
Keenly yearning for the new seasons and episodes.
Truly a Super Car. Deserves its title
I know about the illustrious Ayrton Senna due to his contributions and advice to Honda during the development of the NSX in the late 80s early 90s. Feels like everything related to him is legendary 😎
His wake alone had a four-hour queue! I know because I was there.
one of my uncle's girlfriends was senna's girlfriend before him. she was cool. my uncle is an idiot to let her go (that was in late 90's still)
Love the transition at 3:36
ich vermiss die Sendungen richtig, schau mir immer wieder gerne die alten Folgen an....schade das das ganze so enden mußte
I'm surprised it stopped at all considering all the extra weight it was carrying.
So true. A weird to to mention when trying to go faster is brakes but 100% true cuz you can staying faster longer and deeper.
Godzilla had a stroke reading this
🎶 Work it better
Do it faster
Brake it stronger 🎶
Ahh the Mclaren Senna. Giving you the driving experience as one of the fastest and legendary driver
the editor and foley artist on these top gear videos is getting really good
ah yes the classic clarkson from top gear last time i remember him reviewing something was him reviewing the koenigsegg CCXR
This ISN’T from Top Gear, it’s from The Grand Tour.
@@AtheistOrphan he was first from top gear
The Senna is aging quite beautifully.
There is one of these parked up on the corner of park lane, beautiful up close and personal.
Fun fact… Save fuel by selecting neutral at speed whilst rolling and braking. Judge it right and you can pick up where you left off, eliminating engine wear and adding longevity to your clutch plate. Use the apex where possible to add longevity to tyres/tires… every, little less input helps! 😉
That break test though holy crap.
The Jag would break. The Senna brakes.
The Senna is such a beautiful car
but it isnt really , the doors are stupid
Named after an incredible man as well
It looks made of plastic, and has no air conditioning 🤣 , it's still the fastest thou , but it's not beautiful
McLaren. Such class and also so functional. Beauty and the beast, all in one .....
Thank you guys for all the years of fun. It stinks that the show is ending but it was great while it lasted.
Oh my god, I swear to god, I was just watching the top gear ayrton senna tribute and this video came out
'They are watching us!' 😂😂😂😂
Clarkson looks like Thanos in the thumbnail for this video....lol.
You guys are legends
Ayrton Senna.., I will ALWAYS remember the crash..., I was watching at 2 am on the TV.., horrific. ;( R.I.P.
To be fair he did press a button that said, LAUNCH.
that braking example is just mind boggling.
Dam yes!! Classic Clarkson canoodling carelessly careening a course!!
The 650s is, in my opinion, is the pinnacle of McLaren styling. It looks distinct from the other little mid engine Supercars without looking contrived. They even managed to integrate the McLaren swoosh into the shape of the headlight.
Ive really grown on the senna. Especially because it seems so classical. It reminds me of an old car
@eioshen boboi yup.
lmao it has nothing to do with old cars in terms of looks.
Good Jezza. Like old times.
I cant wait for new seasons, best show ever.
Only going to be another episode or so. They cancelled it
3:14 Great job on the weight reduction and engineering. Clearly though they did not give a crap about sound proofing this... Great gimmick.
"I asked James May to explain why, but I'm afraid, after three hours I went into a deep sleep."
I felt that.
A car befitting of the name of one of the greatest f1 drivers to ever set foot on a track
Feels like Top Gear again! Love it
Acceleration is just not the big thing anymore since Tesla has a rolling washing machine do 0-60 in not much more than a pair of seconds.
right? a 2.5 ton grocery-getter beating most super cars to 100mph. thats why drag racing isnt for me. if you want to impress me, take that series of corners that scares all the muscle cars
@@ghomerhust You're still not much faster than a lawnmower in NYC traffic.
@@ghomerhust idk if that's something you should say anymore. In terms of muscle cars, the Camaro ZL1 1LE is a track monster that slays supercars. The Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is faster than a BMW M5 CS on the track while just being rwd and a manual, and also faster than a Ferrari 458. The GT500 is also a great track performer. Not going to mention Corvette though since those have always been track focused grand tourers
Yes it can do that, but only after you've spent 15 - 20 minutes waiting for the battery to reach the right temperature. And then you can't do it again for another 20 minutes because everything needs to cool down first. The brakes are also an issue, I saw a side-by-side comparison between a Model 3 and a Polestar 2 doing multiple consecutive 100 - 0 km/h brake tests. The polestar consistently stopped at 41 meters while the Tesla stopped at 42, 44 and 47 meters and then they couldn't go on because the brakes had gotten too hot. Granted this isn't an everyday scenario but when going down a steep road in the Alps I'd still prefer to be in the Polestar.
@@JC130676 kinda stretching to call that a real issue, right?
Hey I have a question: Imagine the Senna stopped an inch right before a wall. How fast was the Aston Martin still going when the Senna stopped?
If both went 100 mph and fully braked at the cones, then using the most technologically advanced method I have available (equally-sized lines copy & pasted in MS Paint), it seems that the F-Type was only 60% done braking, meaning it was still going around 40 mph. Going that fast into wall would probably kill you, as far as I know.
Beautiful car
Are these new episodes of TGT forever on UA-cam now?
I was very grateful when the old gang got together and brought it to us via Prime... And I haven't been able to see any new seasons since I believe S3 or S4...
Wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't have a stereo considering the way Clarkson was screaming while doing the breaking experiment with the Jag...
My daughters god father designed the brake calipers for this, he’s a humble Yorkshire lad
Nice.
Must be so proud
Cool
Remarkable. Does anyone know what episode and season this is?
Can't wait to see a head to head race between that and any Porsche 🔥
914 4-cylinder?
What a strange comment
Yes but he isn’t Hammond so it’s fine
He won’t crash that easily
Uhhhhhhh this ain’t worrying at all 😥
For an old fat guy; hes a beast. Also Richard Hammond isnt driving, so... should be ok.
Top video!
Wow, that is one beautiful car..... I'd love to see that in matte black. 😍🖤
The Senna is a remakable piece of engineering and not bad to look at either! Not as nice as a Jaaaaaaaaaaaag
I would of preferred more of this opposed to the current adventure format. Still love it though.
This makes you enjoy it that much more.
At 0:13 Jeremy is throwing himself in the seat before the car even moves! haha
That's some legendary braking power
The Senna is an absolute engineering marvel no doubt but i am curious….. does anyone else think it looks HIDEOUS? Everyone seems to fawn over it and ive never seen anyone really criticize its looks….Idk maybe its just me
its built for aero not for looks
Yep hideous…..function over form…….I can gap it in a straight line in an 18 year old Audi A3, but corners, although my car handles well, this thing would absolutely destroy it 🤣
I think its the best looking mclaren!
@@Mr_OoOsH Your Audi gets to 200 in 18 seconds? I doubt it.
@@NaruSanavai the senna doesn’t do 200 in 18 seconds but I also have more power than the Senna, a considerable amount more!
Ironically the only Senna I’ve ever seen was near Harrods.
I saw a blue one at a garage on the A34 near Oxford 3 years ago.It’s imposing in the flesh.
Somehow they managed to make that braking more exciting that the accelaration.
My 1987 GTA Trans am, special ordered performance options, do 150 easy and quick, would ride so smooth, and not even be close to full pedal, handle so well that speed scared me.
