Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost brought to the track what is still the fiercest duel in Formula 1 history. Their rivalry was one of the roughest in the entire history of the sport.
They never punched each other in a boxing ring, but they did fight with their cars, risking their lives. Two champions, but above all two very different characters in the way they viewed life and racing.
Ayrton's complexity versus Alain's cunning. The absolute speed of the Brazilian against the perfect calculations of the Frenchman. Someone tried to put them together at McLaren, but he finally had to give up because the two came to the point of no longer speaking and disrespecting each other on the track.
Their rivalry, however, led them to overcome their limits. To always try to give their best on and off the track, when it came to being clever politicians, trying to manipulate those who ran Formula 1 in those years.
They came to hate each other, but at the end when Prost retired, Senna went after him because without that rivalry he felt almost empty. To the point that the last thing he said to him before he died on the track at Imola was: Alain, I miss you.
