The worst examples of Choking in Motorsports.

[Garry Walker]

I've never heard that theory before, even in books as recent as "Senna vs Prost" it's made out that Senna lost concentration and made a mistake.

Even in the Senna film they said that the reason he crashed was that he'd started to relax and lose concentration.

You were both answered by this post.

Former McLaren engineer/mechanic Neil Trundle said that it was a slow puncture in a 2006 (?) edition of F1 Racing magazine. I don't think I have a copy of it anymore, but it was only a very small excerpt.

I remember it as autosport, but memory can sometimes fail.
