F1 Mexican GP: 5 memorable moments

#1 Ferrari claim memorable one-two in 1990

Ferrari claimed the top two spots on the podium

Widely considered the greatest Mexican GP of all time, the 1990 edition had drama aplenty. This was one of those races that will stick in the memory of racing fans forever and for good reason.

Ferrari claimed a memorable one-two here after an inspired drive from Alain Prost and from Nigel Mansell. Prost actually started the race in the thirteenth position after a dismal qualifying session, but somehow managed to pick apart the rest of the field one by one till he made it to his arch nemesis in Ayrton Senna.

A memorable battle ensued between the pair but the Frenchman capitalised on his ailing opponent and secured the race lead. Senna had to give up a strong position due to a damaged tire and couldn't complete the race. Mansell, on the other hand, just managed to fend off Gerhard Berger to keep second place intact and bring up a sensational one-two finish for Ferrari when nobody expected it.
