"Taming the beast."

This drawing captures Ayrton Senna in the fast but brutal turbocharged Lotus 98T Renault en route to his first victory at the Monaco GP in 1986, his first of a record 6 victories in the Principality. The Renault turbo in the back of the Lotus was known to deliver its huge power very aggressively and with massive turbo lag, so Senna had to work extra hard to keep the engine on-boost while changing gears manually over 3000 times.
