I got to meet so many other people this year

and I want to introduce you to one of them.

This person wants my greatest discovery of a day.

I know you're all going to love him and be amazed at him.

And a great human.

Aiton Sena!

I know

you're all excited, but not as much as I am.

Isn't he a cutie?

Hi Aiton.

The 88 championship victory.

Was that your Christmas present?

Becoming champion this year was a big gift from the big guy up there.

He gave me new strength to keep fighting for more races, more victories.

And of course to keep the title in 89.

Is there anything else you really want to get this Christmas?

Well, what I want the most, I can't really say it live.

Why not?

It's answered.

But...

I just wish for lots of happiness... No whispering.

In my ear.

How about a message for the kids?

I wish all the happiness in the world to everyone in Brazil.

Especially to the kids.

Lots of love.

Above all.

Right?

To all you little ones, Merry Christmas.

And now, to my 1988 discovery... A Merry Christmas.

A happy 89.

A happy 91.

A happy 92.

A happy 93.

Mrs.

Nangy, I'm so sorry for showing up unannounced.

Don't worry, dear.

And you can call me Sasa, thank you.

And now tell me, who are those little ones?

Hey!

You're the race car driver, aren't you?

High five!

Is your friend staying with us, Bekel?

Yes, my girlfriend will stay with us then.

Where do I know you from?

Are you that TV host, Angelica?

Angelica rides taxis.

And I ride McLaren's.

Sorry, but I only have one seat in McLaren.

You can swim then.

No way, wait a minute!

I like her, Bekel!

We should have seen the look on my parents faces.

I was six years old.

I was taken home by the cops because I took my dad's car.

The cop even said that he thought the car was driving itself because, I mean,

I was small, you know, so from the outside no one could see me driving.

Who would have thought?

You're such a rebel playboy.

Playboy?

Look at that freppy hair.

Is it by choice or is it a foreign regulation, huh?

Looks better this way.

Come here.

Much better.

It can get tiring being Xuxa.

Feels nice being just back with girlfriend for a change.

Feels nice being Xuxa's boyfriend.

What are you doing there?

Well, I'm memorizing your curves.

You better, that's right.

What do you feel when you're out there?

Driving.

Yeah?

Everything.

The track, the car, myself.

It all becomes one and I feel like everything's under control and

unpredictable at the same time.

There's always a feeling of danger getting closer to the limit.

It is so irresistible.

If you don't think like that, you'll be stuck forever in the lead.

As inena is cruising here in Aymala as he was during testing early this year.

A top victory for the brazilian driver in the second round of the championship.

Please, look.

It's not possible.

We cannot go on like this.

His promises are worth nothing.

Run.

I'm not going to accept this kind of favouritism, okay?

There is no favouritism Alain.

Ah, come on, I know what is...

Oh, so I can see you're happy cheating to get the win.

I didn't cheat.

I was faster than you, that's it.

You broke our agreement.

I reached Tosa first.

No, no, no, I reached Tosa first.

You're crazy.

You wanna check?

Well, of course I want to check.

Okay.

You see?

Alright, you know I'm not talking about this.

You know I'm talking about after the accident, the restart.

Look, there now.

At the restart, I was in the lead.

And what do you do?

There you go.

You dive in and you overtake me.

The agreement was very clear.

Whoever was in the lead at the first corner would lead the first lap.

No overtakes.

It's simple.

And you, you saw a shake on this, knowing very well that this kind of

bullshit was going... Listen, I was in the lead.

So after the restart, you should have respected

the agreement and let me overtake you.

Let you over... Are you listening to yourself?

This is racing.

You're changing the agreement.

No, you are changing the agreement.

No!

A restart is a start.

Even you should know this.

And if this continues, I'm leaving this fucking team.

I'm fed up.

No, but it's not possible.

A broken pact.

Treason.

Come on, Greg.

Didn't you want a big scoop?

It's right here.

McLaren's fracturing in two.

Okay, I'll arrive at seven.

I'll go straight to the newsroom.

Thanks.

Shit.

Hi.

Yeah, it's me.

How's Claire?

Good.

I'm glad she got to go.

Listen, could she stay at yours again tomorrow, please?

I know.

I know it's my day with her, but...

There's a work thing.

Um...

Hey, please.

Things are on fire here.

Claire, I need you to apologize to Anna.

For what, Moon?

Because in this situation... Please.

This season, I'm trying to resolve everything on the racetrack.

You have to understand that in Formula One, not

everything can be resolved on the racetrack.

I know, but apologizing for something that I didn't do?

Anna is talking about leaving racing altogether.

And you may regard that as an empty threat.

But I need you to be the bigger man.

For the sake of the team.

Okay.

I will apologize.

For the sake of the team.

Thank you.

Thank you.

And I promise...

It will stay between the three of us.

It was good.

But I still have one second to find out that.

Okay.

Hey, Ayrton.

Ayrton, did they talk to you?

We need a little more air flow coming in.

Calculations from last year are no good for this engine.

The way it is now, I will run out of fuel before the

end of the race, even if I don't step on the gas.

And you know I'll step on the gas.

What?

What?

No.

Are you guys jealous?

Come here.

I'll give you a kiss.

Call me a traitor now.

Ayrton, I never called you a traitor.

You know that these people in the press, they like to exaggerate.

I don't know if I can trust you.

All I know, I cannot trust you.

I will give you a kiss, and I will be back.

Shusha, this is Ron.

Hi, Ron.

Ah, you look good.

You look okay.

This is Gerhard Berger.

Hello.

Gerhard is the competition.

For now.

Hello.

Oh, it's very, very nice to meet you, Shusha.

Nice to meet you too.

I must say you, you're stunning, and you, well, you, you're just a lucky bastard.

And you, you cannot shut up.

Shut up your mouth.

Ah, okay.

Are you coming to Portugal with us?

No, I can't.

Eight months, sixteen races, five continents.

It's not an easy job as a race driver's girl.

That's what my ex says.

I don't know.

Actually, I'm traveling with my show.

Just like you boys.

She's a singer, TV host, the greatest in Brazil.

You are.

Isn't love beautiful?

You behave yourself.

I have to make every second count.

With my boyfriend.

Excuse me?

You're excused.

Cheers.

I am a lucky bastard.

You're my luckiest bastard of them all.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Take it easy with her, Becca.

Mind your own business, Barrett.

Let's toast, yeah?

No, no, Gavão, not now.

Because now, I wanna dance.

She wants to dance.

She wants to dance?

So dance, my friend.

It's in the moment, no in

between What I find is pleasing and I feel it right The love is so confusing There's

no peace of mind If I feel I'm losing you It's just no good You're teasing like a

devil A little pause...

and we are back.

So this is like your dressing room?

I guess so.

So cool!

Is that you?

Me and Vivi.

So cute!

Oh wow, would you look at that!

My first love, Fax.

You kept it?

Of course.

When do you leave?

In a bit.

I wish I could stay to watch the race.

Stay then.

You know what I want?

Just the two of us.

Away from all this.

In the middle of nowhere.

In that nice little house with little pets.

Little ones?

I said little pets.

I heard little ones.

Little pets, little ones.

Wait.

You're already thinking about little ones?

Well...

In the future, maybe.

Right.

What about New York?

Nervous?

Nah.

Me?

Nervous?

Not at all.

Come here, Beko.

I wanna tell you something.

From what I gather, there are no races while I'm in New York.

It'd mean a lot to me if you came to see me perform.

I would love to.

Are you sure?

I think I am.

I like the way you see things.

We are.

What's the story?

I don't know.

I just want to say something.

What?

I don't know.

Good luck.

The engine gives up on Santa, and with only

eight laps to go, we'll talk about bad luck.

It's all going exactly the way Frost wanted.

Bad luck.

I've only just heard the news of Frost moving to Ferrari, and the team's

fanatical Tifosi is already right behind him.

Ron Dennis must be pulling out the last few hairs on his head.

I

was hoping for second place at best, but, you know,

I got lucky because Ayrton's car wasn't good as well.

So, and he crashed.

So, maybe luck is on my side today.

I'm so glad we'll have some time for just the two of us.

Is there anything that could stop you from winning this championship?

Normally I'd say, okay, 20 points is a strong position,

but I've been having so many problems with my car.

I'm sure it's beautiful.

And I don't think I'm McLaren's favorite driver.

Do you get here on Wednesday?

But it's Simon's car that keeps breaking down.

His problem is he pushes the car too much.

My problem is my car.

Bagel?

Bagel, are you listening?

Sure.

Sorry, can I call you later?

Okay.

Looking forward to driving for Ferrari next year.

Cannot wait.

Thank you.

You

were just perfect.

Yes!

From him.

Apparently he couldn't make it.

How about we take a picture to remember this moment?

Mm-hmm.

Please?

Almost a 20-point deficit is hard to regain, isn't it?

Any plans for a change of strategy?

No.

Strategy is the same.

It's always to win.

Ayrton, does McLaren have a favorite driver?

Excuse me.

Ayrton, Ayrton, if you win here and if he doesn't

score points, it'll all come down to Australia.

Prost has great numbers in Australia.

Congratulations on the interview.

In Monza?

Prost would have spoken to anyone... Not Monza.

I mean the email agreement.

Or pact, as you wrote it, right?

You should double-check before publishing.

Well, what's your side of the story?

Why?

You've already picked sides anyway.

I'm not picking sides.

I'm just doing my job.

A bad job.

He doesn't like what you said?

No, he loved it.

How long is this going to go on?

Until Prost stops thinking of showing any favoritism.

Which means?

Until he's contractual then.

All right, Ayrton.

Let me see the telemetry for the qualifying.

Did you ask Ayrton for this?

I'm asking you.

Thank you.

Ah, fuck, man.

He's fast, huh?

Not exactly fast, but impatient, no?

12 pole positions and still 16 points behind.

Pushing the car until it breaks down.

What is it that he said?

Ah, oui.

Second place is first of the losers.

I solve my problems on the racetrack.

I don't send messages through the press.

I don't do things behind anyone's back.

If you need this, you're a coward.

You're calling me a coward?

Go back to your site.

Don't touch me.

Don't touch me.

This is your fault.

It's my fault.

This is my fault.

Don't be serious.

One month before the first direct presidential election since the end of the

military regime, the leader of the polls is Fernando

Collar de Melo from the National Reconstruction Party.

The polls show that Collar is likely to win.

So let's leave.

Prost has no chance.

Senna's gonna win.

Just like last year.

An absolutely thrilling Formula One Suzuka Grand Prix.

Once again, the championship can be decided here in Suzuka.

But this year, Prost has the advantage.

He has to win this one, right?

He has to win.

I mean, Prost has more points than Beppo.

If Beppo doesn't win, Prost is champion.

What's that?

Ayrton has made it to his 12th pole position of the year, my friend.

Now let's wait for the green light.

Last year, Ayrton had some issues at the start.

But he ended up winning the race after an amazing comeback.

And the championship right here now.

Prost

has a better start.

Prost is first and Senna is second.

Prost got a head start.

And what a surprise, it looks like Prost jumped the gun.

But the officials didn't signal it.

Prost starts ahead of Senna, trying to recover at any cost.

How did the engine do it?

Hovered.

No

study's the line!

He's waiting for the right moment.

And make no mistake.

All Prost needs to do is stop Senna from winning.

He doesn't need to win.

He's pushing the pace to keep Senna behind him.

Thrust clocks in at 44.4, Senna at 43.7.

The gap narrows again!

Every tenth of a second counts!

Lap after lap, my friend!

He is right behind the leader!

He's waiting for a jump now!

He's been waiting for his chance, and it looks like he's having the pressure.

Senna is approaching Thrust.

There's nothing between the pair of them.

It's been a 27-lap chase here in Suzuka.

A duel between giants at the Japanese Grand Prix.

This is a truly decisive moment for Senna.

Katsuyoshi Kane is his best shot to overtake.

Senna hasn't found an opportunity to overtake the Frenchman yet.

Maybe now.

Maybe he'll do it now.

Senna's looking for a gap.

He's waiting for a mistake from the Frenchman.

Senna tries to pressure, but Thrust is using

all his expertise to avoid being overtaken.

That's right, my friend.

That Frenchman is a tough nut to crack.

Thrust keeps his eyes on his rearview mirror.

He's defending himself the best he can.

He's right on the tail of the French rider.

We're 40 laps in, and Hayato's still waiting for the chance to pounce.

And he can't wait forever, ain't that right, Higinobu?

Yeah, and all this time behind Thrust might wear him out.

He still needs to make it to the end of the race.

Oh my goodness!

This is fantastic!

They've crashed, which works in Thrust's advantage.

Now Thrust will get the title.

You did it on purpose!

Asshole!

Fuck you!

Thrust is leaving his car.

Push back!

Push back!

Push back!

Come on!

Back!

But Senna asked him to push his car.

Drive!

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Push forward!

Push forward!

Senna will try to go back.

Come on, come on!

Push, push!

Senna is trying to get back to the race.

There's been a collision.

If he comes to chicane, he might incur a five-second penalty.

He'll make up for it.

He'll pass Nene and pull away.

Senna's back after the collision with Thrust.

It's the 48th lap and Senna hits the gas and hits McLaren.

Then Ass pushed back into the race with a damaged nose cone.

He has to win at all costs.

The wing is broken.

I've got a bet.

He needs a new wing.

A new wing.

La Ramposte is going back to the pit and is not happy.

It's not looking good for him.

Senna just got to chicane.

What are we going to do about this?

He broke a rule.

I just don't back on the track in second place behind Nene.

There's a five-second gap and only four laps to close it.

A nearly impossible task for ISO to keep his championship hopes alive.

But impossible isn't new for the Brazilian driver.

I don't think Senna is enticed.

He gets everything to do.

He crosses always.

And I think rejoining the race, the way he did, doesn't mean he gets the regulation.

The question is, will the race regs have the courage to handle the penalty?

One way or another.

The Japanese Grand Prix is going to have a dramatic ending.

Senna will have to risk everything once again.

He's coming up on Nene.

With grit and determination.

Because ISO Senna is only interested in winning.

Senna should have rejoined the track from before the corner.

The marshals didn't follow the damn procedure.

That's a penalty for sure.

ISO Senna is racing against time.

And

now, on the chicane, Nene brakes.

And ISO Senna passes him.

Unrelenting, determined and strong.

To win Monday for a title.

When all hope seemed lost.

Senna got back on the track, took the lead.

And he's still in for a title that seemed lost.

And Ayrton Senna over his wife is from Yashin.

A fantastic combat.

Count Senna out.

If he wins here and in Adelaide, the title's his.

Nice one.

Here he comes for the flag.

Go get him, ISO!

ISO speeds up and takes the checkered flag.

First play!

He did his part.

He showed him what he's worth and what he's capable of.

Brazilian flags are waving.

The crowd is going crazy.

He won, kiddo!

The Brazilian flags are waving here in Suzuka.

Everyone is on their feet.

We hope for a great victory, ISO Senna!

The game for me now is that there will be a penalty presented.

I've never seen this before.

Over 45 minutes and still no podium.

There must be something going on behind the scenes with the race directors.

They'll be inventing something.

Senna's gonna pull me along.

The marshals followed the right procedure.

When cars started, Senna got back in the track and won the race.

Where do the regulations forbid any of these things?

We did it!

What happened to this guy in here?

I saw Uncle Baku won the race.

He did win, sweetheart.

But it's all rigged.

Calm down.

I'm done.

There was absolutely nowhere that I think Ayrton could overtake me.

I was quite confident in front of him.

The only way he could pass was...

How do you feel about Senna's disqualification from the race?

You know, it's difficult.

In fact, it's not my business.

You know, I just read the regulation and the regulation was very clear.

Fuck, I've seen five-second penalties, but losing points, being disqualified?

Completely out of proportion.

Because, I mean, he had to do it.

If he didn't cut the chicane, he'd go against traffic.

That would have been way worse.

He could have crashed into someone.

This is bullshit, isn't it?

To be very honest, I'm quite happy to leave McLaren

because it becomes impossible to work with Ayrton.

So...

And it's a good end of championship.

Look, Xuxa, we've spent months producing this special.

What, do you want to fire 300 people?

Break the contract with our sponsor?

Listen.

You can't have everything at the same time.

Hey, Ron.

Welcome to Oz.

RFP was denied.

Federation decided to maintain the penalty from Suzuka.

So many things have gone through my mind.

But, as I said before, the values I have in my life are stronger than any other

people's desire to influence those values and to destroy those values.

What we had in Suzuka, it just reflects the present

situation, the political situation that we have in Formula 1.

And we all, not only me, but we all drivers, you people, the press,

we all have a responsibility to millions of fans that follow racing on television.

It's our duty to make sure that people with credibility

don't use Formula 1 to put forward bad values and lies.

Unfortunately, that happens often.

And in many occasions in my life, I paid a high price for staying quiet.

But if that's what we have to face to prove that there

are still some people that have got some values, we'll go.

And I'll go right to the end.

He's gonna get himself suspended from F1.

I refuse to walk away from the fight.

It's my nature.

And that's what I'm gonna do.

Okay, and now the collar.

You have to raise it.

Otherwise it will fall, so raise it up higher.

Can I come in?

Of course.

Let's go.

No.

They're lovely.

I was thinking we could spend the weekend in Angra.

What do you think?

We can get a helicopter and go there from here.

I have rehearsals this weekend.

What's going on, Shu?

We haven't seen each other in two months.

Next month I go on tour.

I know things haven't been easy for us.

But I think we can do this.

You're never here.

But I am here.

Right now.

What's wrong?

This is about New York, isn't it?

It was very important to me.

I know.

But it's not that, Beko.

It's not just that.

I wasn't in Suzuka with you either.

Yeah, but that's not a problem for me.

It's fine.

We're not gonna make it.

Shu Xia.

You're up in two.

You were saying that we're not gonna make it.

But I have all the time in the world now.

You don't have all the time, Beko.

Neither do I.
