^ That was an EPIC race but although the Williams was perhaps the most avanced F1 car ever that year, Senna still had TC in that race while some including Schumacher did not.
But at Estoril 8 years earlier it was just him and the three pedals. I almost think technology in a perverted way made Senna seem less special or at least gave his competitors some room to hide. Had F1 always held to the rule that a driver must shift on his own (meaning learning to manage with one handed steering), control his own throttle, and overtake on his own without gimmicks like DRS, we would have seen many more special races by Senna. Without question he would have won many more races and championships and left many drivers looking absolutely humiliated like Nakajima who he regularly outqualfied by over a second in the identical car.
