The best insights of races always came from Lauda, he was always very much to the point.
His comeback after the nearly fatal crash was arguable the biggest comeback in sports ever.
[Most of the Grand Tour is the silliest kind of entertainment - but they have done a few exceptional factual segments and that is one of them].
Statistically, MS trounces AS, but statistics aren't everything, of course. Senna's tragic death stole a real comparison between the two. And also, if Schumacher had to share Ferrari with someone like Hakkinen instead of Barichello, he'd obviously not have won as many races as he did.
In any case, it's almost impossible to actually determine who was better.
Idk, just passing time while brewing coffee. I always love an F1 discussion.
Some survive, some die.
George Harrison (of Beatles fame) later dedicated his song "Faster" to the memory of Ronnie Peterson.
Statistically, Prost outscored Senna in their time as teammates.
Alonso, for example, will never have the stats to represent his immense talent (Unless you use a method like f1metrics). Hamilton, however, is extremely good and has had the car to allow him to fully reach his potential
Today it seems most overlapping happens between mid-range teams, where car performance is comparable and the driver makes a difference; this is exactly what is shown in the documentary. But they managed to show that with great editing mixed with some backstage tension and politics that made the whole thing fun.
