Senna constantly beat him when they were on the same team.
- cgrealy 6y agoThe facts disagree. In 1988, when Senna and Prost were on the same team, Prost won 7 out of 16 races.
- hluska 6y agoYou might want to read a bit more about 1988. Prost won 7 out of 16 races, but Ayrton Senna won 8/16 with 13 pole positions and the World Championship. So, the facts agree.
- cgrealy 6y agoSenna won 50%, Prost won 43%. Senna won the championship by 3 points over Prost. Explain to me how that falls under the definition of “constantly” beat.
- mav3rick 6y agoLOL I like how you tried to mislead everyone by just putting Prost's stats alone. Then you argue it wasn't constantly. If your driver was better head to head you wouldn't have to do that. Long live Senna and his flame to win.
- cgrealy 6y ago/Sigh Yeah, I was the one trying to mislead people and shifting the goalposts. You said “Senna constantly beat him”. I simply pointed out that that is clearly not true. Unlike you, I’m not biased. When I was into F1, I was a huge fan of both drivers. Senna was an amazing talent, but it’s disingenuous to suggest that he had no competition.
- hluska 6y agoWhy did you only cite Prost’s win rate? At best, that’s a highly misleading use of statistics.
- cgrealy 6y agoI wasn’t trying to claim that Prost was better than Senna. I was disputing the obviously bullshit claim that “when they were on the same team, Senna constantly beat him”. They were both amazing drivers and 88 was fantastic for how tight it was.
- hluska 6y agoOh geez, I'm an idiot. Sorry friend.
