Cool video where Honda took all the data from Senna's qualifying lap at Suzuka in 1989 and replicated the sound of his lap around the circuit with lights and sound.

Then, just for lushness her is the actual on board lap from 1989.

 

Love the fact you can see him changing gear and how much the car moves around - pretty much the whole time.

Ayrton Senna best driver to ever drive on this earth! You see how little steering correction he makes compared to other drivers of that time.. thats how my dad used to tell me what makes a good driver when we used to watch the F1..

I still remember that day when in the rain from 5th on the grid and overtaking everything in the first lap!

Epic car control at the bus top chicane at the end of the lap!

True legend. We worked out on average today that an F1 driver changes gear around 1.2-1.3 times per second over teh course of a season. Obviously at circuits like Monaco and Singapore you change more, and Monza etc you change less, but still an awesome stat.
