Alain Prost's half century

Can't believe I missed this.

Alain Prost was 50 yesterday.

Congratulations to one of the greatest we've ever known.

I watched the 1989 F1 Season review video yesterday to celebrate!

Many happy returns!

Best wishes Alain.

Fellow posters, if you get the opportunity, you must watch a program called "In the lap of the gods", just to watch the professor do a lap of Kyalami in his Renault. It is a priceless example of his championship winning style.

I always hated Prost when he was racing, because I was a Senna fan. But, when Senna died I realised that Senna was Senna because of Prost, and Alain deserves maximum respect from everyone because of it.

I hope he doesn't make a comeback because he'll never be as good as he was, and I wish his team was still around today!

But, he was and will always be one of the greats.

Happy Birthday Alain!!!

But then i didn't know jim clark and other early drivers

In terms of raw speed Prost may have been the slowest of the 'gang of four', but he made up for it through hard work, determination and tactical nous. He was a great role model for F1 and a superb driver, and I really hope he can find further success in another area (maybe running a ChampCar team?) in future.
