This is one of those races that clearly showed Alain Prosts' tactical ability at race, pace, and strategy.

I loved how Alain Prost was quite happy to sit back for so long and just watch everyone else fight it out at the front. He didn’t care about leading every lap. As long as he lead the last lap.

@@swistral1 His race craft was pretty amazing. Just sit back and watch the others trip over themselves and gradually make his move later on when things had settled down. The other race strategy of that era that worked as effectively was Senna’s which was almost the opposite. Pole position, lead into the first corner and drive off into the distance. Very different strategies but both deadly effective:

What a briliant camera angle at 01:39!!!

I love those early 90’s Benettons. The Leyton House is beautiful too.

I remember watching this race live and thinking....... "why does it sound like it's being broadcast from the Moon?"

What a good clean start of the race!

loved the chain at the start

Pole, win and fast lap this is the brilliant victory for Alain Prost and Ferrari. I like it.

Hello mate, could you please put the races from Brazil, Great Britain, Suzuka and Adelaide from 1990 please? Great racing.

@justAnotherJapanese I agree. The old days of F1 were the best. Alain's tactical abilities were amazing.

Senna overtakes Mansell at the outside.... 2.55

Today's F1, with goofy looking wings on the cars and drivers still in diapers, is a joke compared to the heydays of the 80s and 90s. I try to watch contemporary F1 today but it simply cannot hold my interest. Yet I keep going back to old VCR tapes and KZread videos to watch the same old classic races over and over again, and keep coming back for more. I am so grateful that I was able to witness these old races live, as they happened.

@Treetop64 I agree. The cars with the wings now a days look goofy. I too enjoy watching my tapes of old F1 races on rainy days. F1 these days is still interesting, but not the same.

Is it me or the Paul Ricard circuit was able to produce good races?

At this stage the Ford DFY V8 wasn't a straight line match for the Honda or Ferrari (but it was for the Renault). Come the end of the year it definitely was when Piquet was fastest on the straight in Adelaide.

some nice hum on the recording

Those were the glory days...todays F1 just sucks

The French TV coverage was always absolutely appalling in the early 90's - I see this is no exception. Thanks for the post though, great to see this footage.

9:43 so... whats going on in the sky here ? Is there an airfiled operaring next to the track? Looks more like an emergency landing by the sink rate..

They should host the French Grand Prix here, not Magny Cours in the middle of nowhere

How good was the Ferrari that year? Was its competitiveness due to their dream lineup or the chassis/engine? Prost: the Professor - nothing else needs to be said Mansell: hell, the Italians called him Il Leone I'd tell Enzo Ferrari it doesn't come any better than that! If I had a F1 team that year, I'd sign up Mansell and Prost, get the best of both worlds in the deal!

bom dia! caro GPjunkie82. voce tem os GPS do BRASIL,SAN MARINO,MONACO,CANADA.?

i was there.
