I'd suggest to discuss the topic of Benetton's (alleged) illegality in certain years in a separate topic, as it dilutes from the actual thing we are trying to discuss here, best #2 WDC performances.
Putting on a digital asbestos fire suit on before I dare to say:
With regards to the events of 1994, (but also to an extend about what happened before that and lead to those events) one of the best manners of getting a decent insight of the big majority of all that is Ibrar Malik's book; 1994 the untold story.
But with one good piece of advice to they who either warship either Senna or Schumacher and/or think that either Senna or Schumacher is the most disgusting creep ever in F1.
Read this book in a neutral mood, try to forget your personal preferences and opinions about those two individuals.
Impossible to many, including some posters out here.
But if you can, this book will provide you with new insights that occasionally will force you to at least change your opinion into at least giving it a thought or giving a theory the benefit of the doubt.
DISCLAIMER: I have no personal interest to promote this book. But if it comes to the toxity of the 1994 season, I felt this book to be one of the best sources of info about a lot of those toxic subjects.
But diehard disciples and/or haters of either drivers mentioned who refuse to forget their opinions first before starting to read will see it as a waste of time.
So to a few of the posters out here: ignore this suggestion and this post.
Oh, and on topic: Right now for me: 1976. From next week Sunday on challenged by Max this year.
OK, back to the graveyard over here and under my tombstone again.
