What you are forgetting is that Senna had to win that race and win the next one too...to win the championship
Coming second at Suzuka simply wasn't an option.
His kamikaze move at the chicane was his last chance roll of the dice.
Either Prost gave up the corner and Senna took the lead or he nerfed Prost out of the way or they both were out of the race.
Senna had simply nothing to lose.
As it happens it became irrelevant to the championship as Senna crashed out of the next race.
