Gilles Villeneuve and Ayrton Senna...a brief comparison
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dT9XytcT74c
Both were VERY good in the wet.
I have seen the Senna video on Tampa Racing. Senna could get within 3" of the
guardrail when others were 6" away. It was said that Senna sometimes passed Through the guardrail.
In the Senna video (go searching for it) Yes, it DOES look like he passes through the guardrail.
