Message: [QUOTE="KekeTheKing, post: 246600, member: 168"] Man I wish I had more Qualifying footage from 1985. The BBC needs to release this stuff on DVD somehow! Seeing Rosberg manhandling the FW10 and Senna taming the 97T is simply majestic. I just had a look at the quali data from 1985 and it really is unbelievable how great Rosberg and Senna were at qualifying those beasts with the engine turned up full boost. Rosberg's average Grid Position was [B]3.8[/B] in 1985. Mansell's was [B]5.7[/B]. (30.4 positions over 16 races) Senna's average Grid Position was [B]3[/B]. de Angelis was fully 3 spots back with [B]6.1[/B]. (49.6 positions over 16 races) For reference, the 85 Champion Alain Prost averaged a grid position of 5. [/QUOTE]
