A Williams Renault 1 - 2 in a hyper wet race, almost every driver crashed...even mighty Senna (I hated him those days), Alesi was in a tyrrel, Boutsen and Patresse in Williams, Senna and Prost (Prost didnt even started because the rain)...ufff 16 years...Senna crashed a Brabham at the back finishing the race with 3 wheels only...ahhh classic racing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Senna 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2006 Yes, Senna was dominating the race until he hit Brundle, when he tried to lap the Brabham... A bad end to a bad year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
