For seven frustrating years, Ayrton Senna's dream of a victory at home, in the Brazilian Grand Prix, eluded him. He finally won the race in 1991, but only after a cliffhanger finish and typical heroics. He was leading comfortably, with only a few
kilometers to go, when the gearbox of his car jammed. By the last lap only one gear was functioning, but Senna wrestled his MacLaren-Honda to the checkered flag. So exhausted he could barely lift his arms, grimacing form the pain, he hoisted the
trophy and the flag.
