"The McLaren MP4/8 was Senna's final race winner and the tool for perhaps his finest Formula 1 victory.
In 1993, Alain Prost won his fourth world championship in what turned out to be his final season in Formula 1, driving the most sophisticated grand prix car yet seen. And still Ayrton Senna managed to steal his thunder."
