If you guys haven't seen Top Gear season 15 episode 5, you should.
I didn't get into motor sport until I was already 24 years old. But after 8 years of watching various racing series, drivers, etc... I can say that while many drivers are extremely talented, fun to watch and all... Senna was inspiring in so many ways. Thinking about it and watching that video just makes me sad that someone like that had to die...

wake me up when this gets interesting!
While they did race in different eras....Schumacher did
win a few races over Senna...and this was Schumachers'
"pre-Ferrari" days.
What's Senna been gone for now?..17 years?
This is age-old...someone who has passed..e.g.Senna,Dale
Earnhardt etc. always seems to be greater than they really
were.
If you aks me..just about anyone that straps themselves into an
F-1 car(be it 2011 or 1990)..is someone that can drive a "beast"!

Senna?....eh?....he was ok...but the man is and will
always be Mr. Schumacher!
Even though I grew up in Daytona Beach(can right now hear the
mild roar of the 24 Hrs.)..I love F-1.....just beats Nascar
to death with all the technology!
If I were ver lucky enough to win a big lottery...I'd surely
try and see idf a RA807E could be placed in my Rio Yellow..
can you imagine...19,000 rpm's!

Schumy also thinks Senna was #1
