Triple-H

Can we just leave you to sleep?

Yes, 17-years, Mother's Day 1994

IMHO:
Part of the reason Senna remains such a hugely worshiped driver is because it was 17-years ago, things were a lot different then, not only the cars and the technology and the safety standards/risk profile, but people were different, the world culture was different.

Just one example, and I'm not saying this is right or wrong, I'm just saying it is, it is what it is, I'm not evaluating, I'm merely pointing it out, nowadays when the leader of the race catches up to a back marker, the back marker remains driving as hard as he can, causing the lead driver to slow down and allow the cars he is racing to close the gap on him. The back marker is so full of himself he refuses to give way, claiming that it was critical he kept racing his race. That was not the way it was in the Senna era, and that is partly because Senna was Senna, and because of this cultural change. When Senna would zoom up someone's butt, they would not only get the hell over and let him carry on with his own race, but often they would be aware he was coming and they would have moved over even before he came up upon them. Respect. Ability to see the big picture. Less self-centeredness. It was a different time. It's easy to glamorize it, because itis gone, and we can never get it back.

Senna was, and remains one of the all time greats, and I don't mean just a racer, I mean the man himself. His talent was just a manifestation of the greatness that was within him.
