Superb driver
My man's started a war by saying that
If U can't articulate a car's/track peculiarities,then one has a weakness.
A weakness you say? Does this mean if Mika could do what Senna did do you think he could have be vastly superior?
@@ironskyheart7749 Not as simple as that..We as individuals have Our peculiarities that make Us stand out or not.
@@4vepvik781 so, you retract you comment saying one has a weakness?
@@ironskyheart7749 Nope!!..I have just said that We are all individuals and have unique quirks in Our makeup.
That's why Senna is Senna,Prost is Prost , Hamilton is Hamilton and Verstappen is Verstappen etc..Their net qualities or vices make them what they are.!!
They certainly ain't Clones innit 😉
@@4vepvik781 but, you’ve literally just said one has a weakness because they and I quote ‘can’t articulate a car’s/track peculiarities’. So you are indeed going back on your comment by basically saying “they are all unique”.
More proof senna is overrated
Mika the equal of Ayrton? Lol good joke mate!
It is hard to hear I can relate being a big Ayrton Senna fan as well as a Mika Hakkinen fan. There was that one time he out qualified Ayrton in Estoril '93. Mika in his prime was very very quick to witness over a one lap qualifying. A good example is Imola 2000. Michael Schumacher had a tough time competing with Mika when McLaren became strong contenders again 1997-2001. I will agree though that Mika's raw pace over qualifying would be up there with Ayrton's pace over a lap. As conflicting as that is Mika had phenomenal raw speed.
I trust the engineer of both guys more than a random youtuber.
@@racr2687Mika was seriously quick but overall I’d say Michael had more natural talent. Suzuka 2000 is a perfect example of it. Schumi pipped Mika by just 9 thousandths and both drivers absolutely nailed their laps with no mistakes. Australia 2000 is another example where Michael was on target to beat Mika’s time, only for Coulthard to crash bringing out the red flag so Schumi had to abort his lap which would have likely put him in pole position.
Indeed, what does a former F3 team owner who was the team principal of both a young Hakkinen and a young Senna know. It's not like it was his job to develop and manage his drivers or anything, why should we trust his word over the word of some random idiot on UA-cam.
@@polar_inertia well, only if his being truthful as their could be motivations you dont know of
