    I cannot recommend this highly enough, a very gifted young man, achieving amazing results and sadly, at the pinnacle of greatness his life was tragically cut short. A remarkable documentary about a truly driven individual in pursuit of excellence.

    I am a keen go-karter and I am in the Scottish championships and I watched this film and it inspired me to focus. The qualifying laps that he did inspired me to become faster on track. I wasn't alive when senna was around but his legacy has lived on to the current generation and this is shown by the number of people who have watched the fantastic film

    As a boy a grew up watching Ayrton "dance" his way around the f1 circuits, absolutely captivated by his performance each time he got behind the wheel. It's hard to believe that 20 years have passed since that fateful weekend in Imola. This film focuses on the life on Ayrton Senna and also succeeds in communicating the reasons why those of us in the Motorsport industry all agree that Senna was in a class of his own. RIP Ayrton Senna.
  • Brilliant documentary about a racing legend!

    Was very moved by Senna's story. Impressed by how actual footage, videos and photos of Senna were used. A very realistic and moving portrayal of the greatest Formula 1 racer of all time.

    Sad and tragic storey at the end, but what an excellent driver He was. He took driving as an art.
  • Not an F1 fan but. . .

    Even if you have little to no interest in Formula 1, you should see this film. Gives great insight into Ayrton Senna, not only his ambition and his driving skills, but also his humility and his desire to give back and help those who were less fortunate. Makes you wonder what he would have achieved outside the racing track. Very moving.
