Which is not accurate. check the starting grid from the '88 and '89 races...Senna was on pole and on the "dirty" side of the track. Pole position is normally on the inside part of the corner of the 1st turn. I know Senna claimed that Balestre changed things in '90. In '91 the pole winner was on the outside part of the track going into turn 1 which also was on the racing line.
