McLaren fan or not, Im sure you'll agree that this is a good clip, both taking a trip down memory lane as they sit in Ayrtons old car..

Thanks for posting it. I recommend everyone take a gander.

Yeah saw this on Autosport last week, great clip. If the clip had have been longer they could have let Jenson sit in his hero's car too. Prost's MP4/4 must have only been feet away.

You can see from their faces how much it means to them to be touching such a great car. http://www.motorsportforums.com/imag...lies/smile.gif

Prost being the greater driver of the two and without the spoilt brat syndrome that affected the cheating Brazilian all his career.

And why did you feel the need to say that?
Looks very much like fishing to me. http://www.motorsportforums.com/images/smilies/ermm.gif

Modified train of thought:
Satisfaction is a present nobody wishes to give to a fisherman who takes delight through his bait. http://www.motorsportforums.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Great video...kids in a candy store. The look on their faces is brilliant. And they're right about how wide those cars are - its only when you see those guys in them you think...damn those rear tyres look huge!!

(Ignoring the troll)

That's a wonderful clip, and further evidence that McLaren's reputation for being grey and soul-less is ill deserved. Even more encouraging is the way there appears to be a genuine rapport between the two drivers.

There should be a thumbs up button. You'd get one from me for sure Henners. Some blatant fishing going on here fo shure

Indeed Dave, I'd certainly love to be left alone in that room for a day or two and I wouldn't even request food.. http://www.motorsportforums.com/imag...ies/tongue.gif http://www.motorsportforums.com/imag...lies/smile.gif

They seem to get on well in every clip I've seen. Not quite the fall out people have been expect/hoping for since the partnership was announced. Great stuff.

what a magnificent collection of some of the greatest ultimate racing machines. Lewis and Jense looked like they were in a dream world, and these are Formula One World Champions, imagine how it would feel like for us normal mortals....

What I love most about that video is the reflective silence as both drivers take a moment to remember Ayrton Senna. It's almost chilling, but in a good way - if that makes any sense.

Am I the only one who thinks the video seems a bit contrived?

It is to a degree yes, with an element of acting but there's true admiration I think when they enjoy touching the car. It captures the respect they have for a great driver too. http://www.motorsportforums.com/imag...lies/smile.gif

It just kind of spoils my enjoyment of the video. It doesn't seem like it's capturing them being natural and how they would actually react in that situation. But perhaps it's just me.

I'm not going to draw some flimsy conclusions about Lewis and Jenson's personalities from it, they're clearly in PR mode

You won't get to sit in them but the Donington Grand Prix exhibition gives a thrill like that, rows of Senna & Prost McLarens, amongst other delights. The MP4-4 was never there whenever I went though, just a big space for it.

Fascinating video. Quite a spooky atmosphere in there too.

yep, I would be like a kid in a candy store.

Makes you wish for a proper F1 museum that would have all the great cars there as well as some of the distinguished ones as well. Even the novelty cars or nicely designed cars would be included. Also at the museum would be a nice 4 theater cinema showing great races and an auditorium for events etc. Can you imagine that kind of museum. It would be a mecca for for all racing fans. I'd pay $100 easy for a day pass. ( btw $100 because in typical FIA/FOM style, everything is overpriced)

As to a certain poster trolling, I have my opinions about prost/senna but this is certainly not the thread to bring those issues up. It makes you look small and petty.
