Not sure how much you can rely on Prost as an independent commentator...Prost and Senna were bitter rivals.
It wasn't over-confidence that got Senna killed it was sketchy welding on his Williams steering column.
I was never a fan of Senna as a person, but he was obviously on a different level right from his first outings in F1.
This on board lap show just how demanding the cars from that era were to drive.
Turn the sound up.
