Here is the battle, let's have it take place at Monza (to make it interesting, Monza was not easy to the MP4/4.

2008's MP4-23 driven by Lewis Hamilton the year that the car famously carried him to a world title (even if some say Timo Glock let him pass in Brazil!)

OR

1988's iconic MP4/4 driven by the equally iconic Ayrton Senna.

So, taking both car and drivers in to account, who wins?

Here is the track and the cars

I think in qualifying trim mp/4 cracked out 1100hp plus qualifying tires but manual transmission but some electro wizardry suspension

But the newer car corners and brakes with way advanced technology - so the newer car wins.

If they hadn't chicaned the fast curves after Imola 94 interesting to compare lap times
