#3 - 1988 - Winner: Alain Prost
The 1988 Monaco Grand Prix was exemplary of the great Ayrton Senna's skill and precision...up until the very end, that is, when the Brazilian legend made an uncanny error. Senna started on pole and had led every lap from the start, with the real battle going on behind him between three other legends in Alain Prost, Gerhard Berger and Nigel Mansell.
Prost trailed Berger for the first half of the race, although he eventually got his McLaren past Berger's Ferrari midway through the race. Mansell was taken off the track by Ferrari's Michele Alboreto, seemingly solidifying the race order as Senna, Prost and Berger.
Not only was Senna in the lead, but he was in the lead by around a whole minute ahead of his teammate. Even as the two traded lap times, the Frenchman couldn't make a dent in Senna's lead.
McLaren boss Ron Dennis even told Senna to slow down multiple times for the sake of the Honda engine. Senna did not heed, however, and eventually, he made a rare mistake and put his car in the wall, handing the race to Alain Prost for his fourth win at Monaco.
