He was the best of the best. Very inspirational.

One of the worlds greatest athletes ever. Mindblowing to see him drive in Monaco with only one hand.

I'm eagerly waiting for the movie.

Senna was a bad ass that knew how to get the most out of his car

Every time I watch him drive I get the chills. Knowing how much skill it took to drive a car as wild as that. This was a great documentary by top gear.

I'll admit I grew up in a household that favored Hill and Mansell over Senna but those videos just gave me a whole new perspective on him.

Big Gilles Villeneuve fan but Senna is a driver that you can't help but admire! He's a one in a million and his sudden death was an end to an era.

G.O.A.T.

The way he danced the car around rainy tracks was crazy. I almost forgot how outrageous the cars used to be. (1000+ hp, shift lever, minimal computer)

Amazing!

Wasn't the car-- Senna did that with everything he drove. He had a very peculiar, knife-edge style, which was one of the reasons he was so fast.
