What I liked about it is that you can see Senna looking over on two occasions while Mansell is completely focused on the corner, almost as if Senna blinked first and hence lost the corner. 8)

I don't really see how it's more exciting than Webber on Schumacher or Button on Schumacher from last race.

p.s. km/h

and

Alonso on Schumacher in Suzuka in 2005

Agreed, you have to give it up to Barrichello there even though it sounded like he cheated death afterwards.
The truth will come out...

I was looking for this one, it was definately a flashy one!

Mine would have to be between the Spa 2001 battle between Hakkinen and Schumacher, and Raikkonen on Fisichella at Suzuka in 2005 [even though I supported Renault back then!]

^^^that was quality..

What a move, on a very fast and dangerous corner. Mansell was far better than people remember him to be.
