Piquet had the superior car that year. Senna has got some
skills. He managed to overtake cleanly, whereas Piquet, in my
opinion, got the car too sideways into the corner. In an era of
slicks, u might get away with it, but my opinion is that the
drifting was more a desperate measure and a slight mistake, because
Piquet outbraked himself into the corner. In modern era Formula 1,
he wouldn’t get away with it, the tyres would give and he’d just
understeer straight on.
