Are petrol turbo engines in vogue on high priced road cars these days. I wouldn't have a clue. :-\

They are the future of fuel economy petrol engines for production cars IMHO, so very much relevant to road cars. :y

At Monaco, Senna was almost certainly laughing his nuts off at Mansells attempts to get past him. It was never going to happen unless Senna cracked under the pressure, which was highly unlikely. It was just him playing mind games imo,and meanwhile Mansell exhausted himself trying.
I was a fan of both of them,but in terms of intelligence Senna was in a league of his own.
