1988 Canadian Grand Prix

Senna wins from pole after taking Prost at the final chicane before the straight. I'm not 100% certain, but I believe that pass was the first time Senna overtook Prost on-track since becoming team mates; the stage was for one of the most bitter rivalries in F1. Results here.

Photos taken with Nikon FG and Sigma 70-210mm zoom; scanned from (poor) prints and (over-) processed with Photoshop. I really need to scan the negatives with a good film scanner and try again, now that I actually know a little about using Photoshop.

More F1 photos coming soon; I've already posted my 1999 photos (see below), and still have several years left to sort through, including stills (by Oliver) and video (by me) shot in the Sauber garage during the 1994 qualifying sessions. Also tons of stuff from the CART races at the Meadowlands, and a few vintage events at Watkins Glen (the GT40 reunion!) if I can find them.
