Prost and Stewart were meant to carry Senna's Coffin

In a new documentary which will be exclusively aired in Brazil, claims that both Alain Prost and Sir Jackie Stewart were meant to carry Ayrton Senna's coffin during the Funeral. However, the late Senna's PR Agent changed the whole idea and instead replaced them with Emerson Fittipaldi and Gerhard Berger. The change was made on the grounds that both them were not that close to the 3-time World Champion

Obviously Prost and Senna had a well publicised rivalery during the time when they were team mates at Mclaren. Sir Jackie Stewart was very critical of Senna's 'Aggressive Style of driving' after the crash that he had with Prost at Japan 1990
