@@thomasrowann My thoughts exactly. But I fear we will not see a single overtake in this race. If European Formula 3 cars can't overtake here, how are F1 cars meant to do so? I'm not looking to this race one bit, I'm afraid.
This incident is so memorable to me for two reasons. 1) they were both so gentlemanly about the incident afterwards when there was a world title at stake. Credit to them. 2) it’s the only time I can recall aside Suzuka ‘89 Prost making an in race mistake which resulted in him eliminating a competitor. He was such a smooth driver and, without question, the best driver and bringing points home as opposed pole positions.
Piquet was calm firstly because he knew without looking at the footage that Prost was a gentleman and that he won't do any calculated stupidity, and secondly, because he was not going to finish the race as his engine was at the end. Also, it was not all what Prost said, he added that he hopes Piquet wins the next race in Italy to make it up, which actually happened.
You forgot to say that day it was the most amazing start by any driver I can recall in Formula One history. It was Eddie Cheever in the other Renault jumping from P11 on the grid to P2 RIGHT ON THE FIRST CORNER. Amazing stuff.
Yes that was the last race that season that the Renaults were dominant. I felt a spell had been broken after the Piquet Prost accident. If Prost had driven to finish and he could well have been first since he still had the speed to beat the Brabham's he might well have been champion that year.
Eddie Cheever having a Lance Stroll moment there! Anyway, Prost learned a lot from his time at Renault, his mistakes in those years, which caused him to miss out on the world title at least twice, made him rethink his driving style. And thus the Professor was born, becoming 4 times WDC.
wow 2 people crash and dont carry on like children? one accepts it was his mistake and the other was just like, that was fun mistakes happen, many respect to both of these drivers, that happens today and everyone complains like 4 year olds.
I think it would still be same it was just that youtube was not born yet or social media were not that advanced people only read newspaper and doodle on their drivers rival besides both of them crashed
A lot of it's just the risk factor- There's not really much reason for Prost to take off another driver if he risks injuring one or both of them, so the idea of deliberately crashing someone out for the title is, while not entirely alien (*cough*AlanJones*cough*), almost non-existant- especially given that the reliability back then could easily have seen Piquet DNF anyway. That, and it's Prost. He had enough reputation as a fair, safe racer that if he did crash it was simply one of those things, everyone's due a mistake every now and then, as opposed to an idiot who can't control his car, unlike (for example) Scheckter and Patrese early in their careers.
Zandvoort layout is all about keeping your momentum by perfecting the racing line through a corner. There's several spots in the lap that, if you get it wrong and lose that momentum, you could fall prey to the guy (close) behind at the next corner.
