Found this in a drawer: Ayrton Senna's Super Monaco GP II on the Sega Mega Drive, 1992. Ayrton was my idol. At the beginning of 1992 I had no job as a professional racing driver anymore. Who could have guessed that two years later I would be standing on the Formula 1 grid with him in Sao Paulo? Who else spent hours with this one?

A bit of #MondayMotivation from Phil 👏 He built this brilliant Scalextric setup for the grandkids and safe to say they’ve got a pretty good circuit to race on! Who else started building a layout for the kids and ended up enjoying it just as much? 👀

Indianapolis, if you’re only driving the oval, is a different matter — that banking, that high-speed corner in Turn 1. For Formula 1 it was too easy. That’s because we had to run much more downforce because of the whole circuit, in order to be faster. And that’s why Turn 1 in Indianapolis wasn’t really a corner for us at all. You could just cruise through it one-handed and relax.
That time, 25 years ago, when Frentzen drove without hands in his Prost at Indy! #F1 #RetroF1
