While Senna made his fans happy on the track, at the football pitches of the FIFA World Cup, which was taking place in Mexico, Brazil was eliminated from the competition on the eve of the race, after losing to France \u2013 the homeland of many mechanics and engineers who worked at Reanault, the maker of Senna\u2019s engine. On Sunday, Senna made Brazilians proud again by celebrating his win with a gesture that would come to follow all his victories. The driver stopped during the cool-down lap, grabbed a small Brazilian flag and effusively raised it, taking a lap while holding it high. From that day forward, Senna began showing the pride he took in defending his country\u2019s colors in the main motor sports competition in the world. And after each triumph, Globo TV announcer, Galv\u00e3o Bueno, started calling the winner Ayrton Senna \u201cof Brazil\u201d. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><strong>2- Detroit 1987<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Senna wins in Detroit - 1987 United States Grand Prix\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4wzwGUR2XsY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">After his first win at Detroit in the previous year, Senna once again celebrated on the streets, this time behind the wheel of the yellow Lotus. The Brazilian started in second place and trailed Nigel Mansell (Williams) for 33 laps. When the Britton stopped to change tires, Senna took the lead and stayed there. In a risky bet, he took care of his tires and didn\u2019t make a pit stop, unlike most of his opponents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\">3- Detroit 1988<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.senna.com\/na-terra-do-tricampeonato-de-senna-hamilton-iguala-marca-de-41-vitorias-de-seu-idolo\/88us_026\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-19709\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19709\" src=\"https:\/\/www.senna.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/88US_026.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.senna.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/88US_026.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.senna.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/88US_026-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.senna.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/88US_026-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.senna.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/88US_026-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.senna.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/88US_026-1536x768.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">At the 1988 Detroit GP, Senna scored his sixth pole position in six races that year \u2013 an amazing performance that started bothering his McLaren teammate, Alain Prost, who was a two-time world champion (1985 \u2013 1986). Not giving his adversaries any chance, Senna led the race from start to finish, crossed the finish line 38 seconds ahead of Prost and, to boot, lapped Thierry Boutsen, who came in third with his Benetton.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><strong>4- Phoenix 1990<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"AYRTON SENNA - Duelo com Jean Alesi - GP EUA 1990 -  Melhores Momentos F1\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HyEALoJHpUE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Surprisingly, a heavy rain fell over the Arizona desert during the Saturday qualifying sessions for the 1990 Phoenix GP, which meant that the times posted on Friday were the ones that counted. That led to Ayrton starting in fifth place. On Sunday, Senna was able to jump ahead to second during the first few laps, but Jean Alesi wasn\u2019t interested in giving up his spot. Senna intensified his pursuit and, on lap 34, he overtook Alesi at the end of the main straight. But the Brazilian couldn\u2019t have predicted that Alesi was going to get revenge on the very next corner, taking back the lead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">On the following lap, the Brazilian made clear why he was the front-runner for that year\u2019s title: when both drivers braked at the same time on the same corner, Ayrton Senna\u2019s McLaren took the inside lane and made it impossible for Alesi to recover. The Frenchman even tried the same maneuver again, but this time Senna didn\u2019t budge and closed the door on the Frenchman. It was Senna\u2019s fourth win in the US.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><strong>5- Phoenix 1991<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"1991 Phoenix Senna Onboard\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/S0QjCaqBBjc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Unlike in the previous year, Senna didn\u2019t have to start in fifth to win in Phoenix. In 1991, he took the pole by being one second faster than Prost (Ferrari) and led the race for all 81 laps, until he got the checkered flag. The win in Phoenix was the start of an impeccable season, when he won the year\u2019s first four GPs, opening up a commanding lead that would come in handy at the end of the season against the Williams driven by Nigel Mansell and Riccardo Patrese.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United States F1 Grand Prix takes place this weekend, at the Austin speedway, which made its debut in the category six years ago.
