^ maybe I misread this portion on the Original Post

I think that because of Senna and all his winnings and championships with Honda Maclaren we are proud to own and have the NSX and S2000 because they develop both cars thanks to these guy who brought a lot of emotions and happines to the brand .
No big deal really.

That contradiction made him unique.
not to mention that he would run you off the track or purposely make you lose if have a chance at winning the world championship.

Don't know how anyone could call Senna, "not a nice guy". The guy gave unprecedented amounts of money to local charities and organizations. Brazilians thought of this guy like he was some sort of saint, and he was extremely modest and humble. But as already stated, he was 'hyper-competitive' but he brought up a good point.... if you're competing, you should be out there to win, and be willing to give it all if necessary. Otherwise, what's the point?

I think a majority of F1 drivers would point to Senna being the greatest, overall, driver yet. Not to mention the machines he was driving, and the ones Schumacher drives are totally different beasts.

I also feel like anyone who doesn't know who Aryton Senna is, would think it's very odd that my current desktop background is a man spraying a hose at a car.
