@@kingkiller749_6 uhm... nothing? Just because you believe for example Shumi is better doesnt mean that youre a bad person lol. If anything theres something with YOU
-If i ve honest to you, i was never a Senna fan. i always tought Gilles Villeneuve was the greatest racing driver of them all. but, to make this film, i've watched hours and hours and hours of footage and the thing is, Villeneuve was spectacular on a number of accasions, Senna he was spectacular every single time he got in a car. - Jeremy Clarkson -
Senna was magic, once in a lifetime real magic, there were a lot of great drivers and legends, Fangio, Clark, many drivers have better records, but Senna driving was different! His driving was completely and magically out of this planet!
One of my treasured moments during qualifying in 1991 at Silverstone out of a crowd of approximately 200 I was the only one that waved with my arms reaching up as high as possible to Senna as he went past it was then he lifted his right hand from gripping the steering wheel and made a wave hand to reply to my wave. That something I am very proud of! Senna you’ll always be a real gentleman!
Richard Bradbury I was at silverstone 91,92,93 Friday practice to race day I was 15 in 91 and my dad and me used to go to copse right on the apex My dad was a mansell fan and I was a senna fan and I remember him calling senna a wsnker everytime he went past 😂 Little did I know those were to be some of the best days of my life. We walked the track after and only now I can apriciate how privlaged I was You must feel very special when your remembering those moments and yes you are privaliged to even get a wave from Ayrton I saw imola94 live and a very long time later I still can't look at senna without bursting into tears
@@MrCatseyes01 you both are a privileged guys. What an amazing time to be alive and see those legends near you! I'm brazilian and a fan from both Senna and Mansell. They were entertaining, competitive and sportsman as hell.
"Ayrton Senna never died. He is just a lap ahead from the rest of us", someone once wrote. 30 years ago I lost my idol, inspiration, the older brother I never had and to whom I looked upon with admiration. I came to hate May 1st. And 30 years on it still hurts as if it was yesterday. A day that left me totally numb for a long time, as I wished every second to wake up from an awfull nightmare. One of the saddest days of my life. It was SO unfair!!! I miss you my Brother. I have tears in my eyes. I hope that there is an afterlife to see you race again.
⭐In 1989 the normally aspirated engines arrived and many thought that Senna would lose some of his amazing speed without turbos. But Ayrton remained supremely fast in all conditions. While going around corners he still refused to take his foot off the gas pedal, a technique he learned as a kid during his karting years. Ayrton Senna actually believed he had the God-given right to win. His trust in divine intervention helped him to go faster than he normally could have. Being guided by a higher power enhanced his performance beyond what it would have been without religion. His faith made all the difference. Ayrton had an unshakable belief that he was fulfilling God's will. He prepared himself better than any other driver before, both physically and mentally. He was an innovator in using sport psychology, physical, and mental trainer Nuno Cobra before anyone else in Formula 1. He used techniques to control his breathing and relax when he was becoming over-aroused. These methods allowed him to concentrate at almost superhuman level and get into the zone almost at will during races. Gerhard Berger: Once he was focused he didn't feel any pain or stress. Nothing. Damon Hill: He talked about a state of mind he got into whereby he was there, but not really driving the car. Prost describes how, after a race at Monaco, Ayrton explains how he monitored his performance during the race itself: He managed to visualize from a 'third person' perspective (i.e. as if watching from outside) during the race and corrected his mistakes. Ayrton Senna had the qualities to be the best racing driver of his time, and that is exactly what he was. His tombstone simply reads: 'Nothing can separate me from the love of God'
His passion for racing was such that he sometimes got transported in to another world. Some called him a genius. The eye of the tiger, you could have seen in Senna eyes. Whatever it was, Ayrton had that aura, his enthusiasm, inquisitiveness and energy was infusive. Alain Prost believed him to be a madman who thought God was his co-pilot.
In 1994, we lost a champion and an equally great man. Such was his greatness that an Austrian flag was found in his car after the crash. It was a flag Senna was going to raise in the honour of Austrian Roland Ratzenberger who had died on the same track just a day before.
Ayrton Senna is an inspiration to us all, that's his legacy. Your legacy is your destiny created through hard work, determination, dedication, discipline and an unremitting devotion. Dreams do come true.
In Japan, since senna died, many people stopped seeing f1. People who did not know f1 at the time also knew senna, and everyone liked him. Bring a lot of victories with the Honda engine, nurture friendship, He loved Japan. It is really sad that senna died. Antti Kalhola has a wonderful talent. I was impressed. Thank you. I think FIA should hire him.
I have been an F1 fan since a young boy. My father took me and my brother to the US Grand Prix in Long Beach in 1977. I've loved F1 ever since. My favorite driver was Nigel Mansell. But after Senna died I stopped watching F1 for several years. I can't explain why, but I just did. He was truly a great man on and off the track. He was, is and always will be missed. He was THE BEST F1 driver of all time.
"...you commit yourself to such a level where there is no compromise. You give everything you have, everything, absolutely everything..." Senna, Ayrton
"So, everytime you are close to those limits, the excitement increases, and your heart goes quicker..... and your breath goes stronger" this guy was very very emotional and soul
@@Fabtp76 My wife is brazilian and I am mexican ! Be proud to be Brazilian amigo , Senna will live 4ever and brazilian politics has nothing to do with what distinguish brazil , Senna is a hero , politicians are no one.
the brazilian hero. - he made f1 become soccer in brazil; - created the instituit ayrton senna that help childrens; - donated 400 millions for charity; - become the GOAT; - Did Things that no other driver did; - ETC. #eternochefe. #GOAT #Aceleraayrton
95%!!!! 🏅More Brilliant, Biggest Heart♥️, More Talent! Em uma Época que quatro ou Cinco Brigavam por Títulos. Certamente SENNA se competisse até os 40 como o Kimi Raikkonen Provavelmente teria Vencido de 8 a 10 Títulos🍾!!!
You may adore Hamilton , Verstappen etc but there can be only one Aryton Senna. He is miles ahead of the rest and adored even today. To me , the greatest ever F1 Driver. A Legend and an Icon.
Agreed, I wish I was half the man Senna was...with his talent, dedication, work ethics....let alone to be able to have the kind of work that I would absolutely love doing so much that I would even consider it my hobby.
@@Balnazzardi as he said "the main thing is to be yourself" - never, never, never look at someone like Senna and think "i wish i was like him". You are you. God created you this way, you are not incomplete, you are complete. Saying "i wish" shows me you haven't been expanding your limitations. You are trapped within your own psycholgical self-image. You think you can only run 7km, i bet you you could run 15 today. You just haven't pushed yourself enough to believe it.
@@Balnazzardi by the way correct me if I'm wrong on what I just said. Senna was a very special soul, these people are there to remind us what we're capable of, not trap us. They show us what can be done...
I can say I'm truly lucky to have gotten a picture with senna when I was a little boy in detroit.I'll keep it forever and one day I will send a copy to his foundation. Senna had no equal.
I was 17 when he died and I still miss him. He was our hero, our pride. It was like losing a family member or a close friend. The most crowded funeral in Brazil ever.
I was 19 myself. I remember that day as if it were yesterday. I remember watching the race at my friend's place and then having this knot in my stomach, even though the commentators were treating it like a normal accident. I told my friend I had a bad feeling about this one. I remember watching the news hours later and being so completely devastated. I may not be Brazilian, but I know exactly how you felt. Of all the great sports stars in all the sports I have ever known, there was no one like Senna.
i was only born in 2001 but although i never saw him racing, by the footage i can say that he was and still is the best driver and he is an inspiration to me. to do and i love and give absolute everything i have in what i am good. just to see him driving i always cry i dont know why
i felt the same that day. best of all time. true 89 champion(stoled by balestri). and he did not win 92 and 93 because willians had active suspension and mclarens losed honda motors. but he wins a lot of races in very inferior conditions, this guy was a alien pilot.
I’m 17 and although I never got to see him racing, seeing how much people adored him brings tears to my eyes. I believe it’s 25 or 26 years since he passed, but the legend lives on!
Oh yes.. I was 9 years old or young if you wish, when he died, i cried so much.. Even today, at age of 34, i cone here and watch this video every now and then.. Senna was a special man.. Such a great charisma.. He will never be forgotten, such a great person he was.. Just look for videos from his memorial, omg.. The whole Brasil was there, on the streets.. Senna was so adored, he was greater than life.. Something like Kobe Bryant.. Rip legends
Ayrton is so special, he's considered a Hero here in Brazil, i'm 22 years old, never got to see him drive, but it's impossible to grow up here in Brazil without hearing about Ayrton Senna, my parents, uncles, teachers all talked about him, and ONLY good things, he was such a humble and determined human being, he brought hope and joy to all Brazilians, and still do! I miss him so much even tho i wasn't even born when he died.
He Was First of all A Great Person... BETTER than A Great Pilot Of History...For BECO All Honour 4EVER...Mi Manchi BECO... TANTO SEMPRE AMICO FRATERNO VERO AMICO CARO... Max
I was at the San Marino Grand Prix 1994 in the main stand the day Senna crashed. The Pedro Lamy JJ Lehto crash on the start line happened right in front of me. Then the unforgettable sight of Senna's severely damaged car being brought back on a low loader to the pits after Senna had been helicoptered to the Hospital. A weekend I will never forget.
Other than sheer talent, what’s Senna’s secret? Focus, passion, restlessness and relentlessness, intensity, self-awareness. All of it in one person. Legend.
I'm a racing fan as of quarantine (got a sim wheel) and seeing anything senna makes my eyes sweat a little, and I've not even got a whole life of being in the culture and community forming deeper connections. Stories about senna make me weep man.
I used to hate you for being unbeatable, always faster than anybody else by far. Like someone from another planet. I have to admit to you Ayrton Senna, you are the greatest F1 talent whom ever walked the earth. You are the true GOD of formula one!
He was the "pantomime villain" to us, the man who was denying "Our Nige". I wish I had known and appreciated then, what I know now 20 years later. Ayrton Senna was the greatest driver in F1, and an amazing human being too. I often find myself wondering what would have happened had he lived. Would he now be a humanitarian working with UNICEF or the UN? President of Brazil even? As for the quote posted - It's one of the most inspirational things I've ever heard.
I find it funny you to say that, Mike, because I would not believe in this 2 years ago. Brazil is currently under a severe political crisis. Our "known" politicians are all under heavy scrutiny because they are all under serious accusations of being corrupted. Our next presidential elections are in the next year, and honestly, a fair share of the population is dissatisfied about their options. I believe Senna would've won if he was alive now. Seriously. And even though I don't like mixing TV celebrities and politics, I would vote for him, given our situation.
But he was beatable. Prost outscored him in both years that they were teammates. Senna had to always be at the limit to beat Prost, who just as fast but could do it with ease.
I've never seen Senna racing because I'm too young, but when I went to the memorial at Imola, I couldn't keep the tears inside. There's a strange and beautiful peace there; the silent is only broken by the sound of the cars on the track
***** Ah! Okay. I don't know much about cars or racing, but one day I'm going to make it out to a Formula 1 race. Probably the one in Brazil, but I am not sure.
yeah pilots like alonso and hamilton are totaly one of a kind... but i really think they cant beat Senna.... he was just a genius.... it ll be hard to born someone like him
Villeneuve was Senna's inspiration. He was crazier than Senna but that costed his life, Senna was also agressive in his way of driving but nothing like Giles.
As far as I'm concerned, Ayrton Senna DID have a God-given right to win! Unquestionably he was the most charismatic & electrifying driver in F1 history, and we'll never see another racer like him again. RIP Legend! You'll never be forgotten.
He drove F1 cars like a rally car!!!! Shimmying, drifting, overstearing, lighting the wheels kicking the back out coming out of bends! Amazing! The best driver ever to get in a car, Senna ✊🏼💯 🏎💥
He, like Gilles Villeneuve before him always left everything on the track. Never saved anything and gave it his all. That is why he was so determined and so bloody quick. What a legend.
I can't imagine how many more titles Senna would have won if he did not die and continued his career racing for Ferrari alongside Michael. Maybe in another reality in a different universe, Michael and Ayrton were teammates.
That would’ve never have happened because of his way he dealt with Prost. Senna couldn’t deal with a driver with similar talents. He had to be the number one in the team simple
At least two titles. Probably three (95, 96 and 97) and maybe more. To be teammate with Schummi would be impossible since both of them wouldn't accept be nº2. Schummi was very good, one of the best ever for sure, but he couldn't stand pressure to win a title, and that was his main flaw in my opinion. He fell to both Villeneuve (in a shameful fashion) and Hakkinen, good but nothing special drivers at all. He would even lose to Hill, shouldn't he do that ridiculous manoeuver at Adelaide. Whenever Schumacher faced real, tough competition, he fell. He only worked best with top team working exclusively for him, including his teammate. Senna, in other hand, was forged in those horrible times of the 80's. He was a competition machine as were Prost, Mansell, Piquet and many other tough contenders unwilling to submit to anyone. They're not in the same league. Maybe Schumacher would evolve himself in this regard if Senna stayed alive, I think he would.
@Bashir Hayek In a team with Schumacher, Senna would have been number 1, there are no doubts about that. Also, OP: I wish I could live in that reality.
Senna will always be like a God to me, try and live life by Senna approach, you will surely become a better person. RIP for eternity. Much loved and much missed.
Ayrton truly was one of a kind. Not only was he incredibly fast, but he had a mystique about him that hasn’t been seen in F1 since. We’ll never see it again.
I think' s dedication he put, he made alot of sacrifice to had that performance, and who study about F1, knows he had a results with cars the same level to another drivers, so was the driver made difference
you are right about the mystique. It is impossible to compare F1 drivers of different periods, so much changes, so you have to express your feelings about their character, and leave the driving, the speed, the results, to one side, those are for others to argue about! There are several drivers who I admired, not in any order, so, Fangio, Moss Senna, Clark, Stewart, Bell. I was lucky to meet Stuart, Moss and Bell. I helped a friend race a Ferrari 250 swb berlinetta several times, he shared the driving at Goodwood with both Bell and Moss, on different years, their best times were the same. Derek Bell was great to talk to, very helpful to my wife and I, both amateur racers of historic Formula Junior cars. One time, in the pits, Moss's wife needed a chair, I got one from the office, put it down, and Stirling promptly sat in it! No comment! Anyway, Senna did have something about him, and it was a tragedy that a faulty weld to the steering column caused it to break, and his terrible crash. May he enjoy another life beyond this one he deserves it.
1200 horse power, no power steering, no paddle shifters and very little downforce compared to today's cars. Driving that car to the limit must have been like fighting a wild beast!
When he was shifting gears, he held the wheel with his left hand only! And he shifted a lot to keep his breaks functioning. The pedalwork he does is fun to watch too! His right foot simultaneously controlled the break and gas to keep the engine in the optimal Rev. Band and I doubt he was watching the tachometer he was listening to sounds. He worked hard but looked so effortless.
Those cockpits in senna era so shady compared to now crazy way unsafe that’s why drivers off senna years always knew could be there last race today cockpits look 20 times safer guess everything evolves for me greatest driver I’ve ever seen and his charismatic character made him one of a kind
Senna is remembered for his driving but he also did a lot for his country and charity for children without boasting about it. He was an apex predator on track and a deeply passionate and intellectual human being. Thank you Toleman for taking a chance on a rookie who would turn out to be a legend.
@@thepsychologist8159They didnt pass on him...I think I've read somewhere he had 3 or 4 options, He tested with Williams,Brabham and Toleman but those 2 were asking for a amount of money he didnt have at the time and then he bought the seat at Toleman. Cool to mention he was breaking the records of the official drivers on the tests and with Brabham at Paul Richard Piquet later said in an interview after Ayrton's passing he made a $100k bet with Bernie that Senna wouldn't beat his time, he said he knew Paul Richard sucked during the afternoon and that there was no way someone would be faster than a time set in the morning then he did his lap early in the morning so he wouldn't let the rookie beat his time. Senna's lap was 1.9 slower during the afternoon and Piquet won the bet 😂
Every time I watch anything like this or any tribute to him I have to stop myself from crying because to me he’s the father I never had. He’s my hero and shows me what it means to have faith and be a good man. It might sound cheesy to some but I don’t care. I’m crying now damn it.
Senna: the best. There is nothing more to be said. Don't get me wrong, I was a Schumacher fan too. Schumacher was amazing, almost superhuman, as were Clarke, Fangio, and Prost as well. But Senna was the best.
@@JonasH0707 Agreed! I usually remember Gilles when I see Senna racing and immediately watch some videos of Villeneuve's. I find them very very alike really. Miss them loads and also hope Shumi is doing better and better every day.
@@JIA1327 The only one going to hell is you for being a goddamned fool. Senna went to heaven - of course he did because he was a GOD! BOOM! MIC DROP! OWNED! HAH!
His Greatest mistake was changing to Williams racing. Even he was not sure of the car he was offered by Williams team due to lack of advanced safety that was put into practice during that season but he still chose to go with it and that too, after two major accidents in two days(one fatal and one near fatal) before his race day...thats what his commitment to the profession was...he was born to race without fear and success always chased him..if he had chosen to stay with Ferrari, then I doubt anyone in the near future would be able to break his records...most important and admirable, he donated almost 80% of his earnings at the prime of his career to the poor in Brazil
many do not understand that the cars that drove Senna were true indomitable beasts. today's Formula one cars are much much easier to control and to push to the limit The fastest Formula One driver ever in the wet he it was between one and three seconds faster than his opponents in qualifying he was unbeatable. And above all he was a great generous and very humble man with Senna formula one was another thing. the king of Formula one.
Finne72 I remember the last three consecutive pole positions that he get with the Williams, losing track and almost getting out in every curve, fighting agains a young Schumacher, everybody thought he was loosing time. When in reality he was walking in the limits of the F1, right in the edge of the limits of his car! Unbelievable he did it again and again, the perfect lap, I still remember the commentators “Senna got the pole position”
He’s been an inspiration to me, he’s the reason I love racing. I’ve been saving money for the last 4 years to buy a good race kart so I can begin my journey of a racing driver.
Don’t give up you’ll get there I had a crap go kart when I was ten it belonged to my cousin I drove the hell out of that thing and used senna throttle technique win a regional and state championship and used the prize money to buy a better go kart and better gear at the age of 13 and remember don’t be like maheever
Exactly same here, my dream is to get into F1, and I have been saving my money since I was about 11 or so, I'm 16 now and hopefully this year sometime I can start. When I really started seriously thinking about becoming a racecar driver was when my dad and I would go to track events and he would drive his car on track with me in it, and I absolutely loved the feeling of going fast. Its better than any other feeling, but at the same time I can't explain it. I started driving fourwheelers when I was about 5 years old, and was horrible, first time I got on a little fourwheeler I crashed into my mom's SUV lol, but ever since I have improved. I got to where I could ride it on the side two wheels, and my mom was terrified, but my dad knew. I started karting at events at a track. The first actual timed racing event I won out of 20 something kids, and I still have a trophy framed with my picture. A kid's parent said I didn't look the fastest because of how smooth I was, and I have had this want to be a racing driver. It's hard at times when I don't get a nice car and I get picked on because I want to save my money for racing instead of nice things, but I hope it is all worth it. I want to bring America back into Formula 1, and that is my goal, I'm truly lucky to have parents that are willing to support my dream and not kill me for not going to college. I wish you luck my friend, and hopefully some day we can be rivals.
@@noobednatherium4082 I see it as more of a celebration of Senna's refusal to give into adult cynicism by maintaining the optimistic idealism of a child and making into his own reality
Ayrton Senna was my hero...I remember when my dad took me to see the movie when it first came out because he knew how much I admired Senna...my dad would take my brother to dodger games...and me to formula 1 movies...
4:43 "The main thing is to be yourself. It's basically learning about yourself. Even if you try to be perfect, nobody is perfect. So of course I try to learn from every mistake I make, from every wrong decision I make to not allow it to happen again." (Ayrton Senna)
Ayrton, where ever you are, 26 years are passing by. The only thing that we want to say to you is; we, the fans are stiĺl missing you till de day you left this World at Imola '94. Rest In Peace Senna. - Your fans
This guy is a fucking inspiration a fucking legend!! In the F1 world we have to separate SENNA from the rest, he was fast and brilliant, he was also like a poet of the tracks, a distinctive personality. RIP King!!
@@matvt.2451 remember he won in 1972 and 74. Did he win a third? I was never a big fan of Senna although I know many liked him, but I preferred Piquet. He had a great sense of humour and was until his injury a better driver than Senna.
@@jameshogan6142 it’s not only about winning. Senna, even only through his speech - which wasn’t the case, anyway -, represented, us, Brazilians. Piquet didn’t. People accuse Ayrton of being arrogant, but that’s not the case. He was just “too” driven, Piquet was (actually IS) an arrogant prick.
I remember the day we lost him. I always cry when i see something about Ayrton. The King of the asphalt, the Master of the strategy , the Warrior of the racetrack, we miss You. Respect.
zz William it was the day of my communion. We were all watching the race. It touched me deeply. In later years i analyzed the crash and circumstances over and over. Was his life taken who really knows. Rip ayrton senna
Jon watson (ex driver and TV commentator) said that in 1987 Senna was going to Mclaren and asked him what he thought about the team,Jon answered to him "they are a great team,they have many world championships and they have the best F1 driver alive,you should be patient and conquer your space in the team step by step,slowly" Jon said Senna was riding a bicycle and before he finish his argument Senna brake the bike answered to him "No,no,no,If I go there, I will destroy Prost in front of everybody physically and mentally, I'll make Mclaren team improve to another level,I'll join them to win and dominate" and what happened in 1988,1989,1990,1991,1992 and 1993 in Mclaren shows exactly who was Ayrton Senna,what he said to Jon watson he did! Today it is impossible to speak about Mclaren without relate the team to that yellow helmet.
Reels Rihard Although a driving sport, it's still a very different sport. Rally drivers are meant to drive in tough terrain not meant to be driven on. It's about who's best when all conditions are against you. F1 emphasizes more on who's best when the conditions are meant for everyone to be at full driving potential; which is why F1 cars had 1,200 hp engines with huge slick tires meant for sharp turning, while rally cars, although modded to high hell, are modded more for performing in rugged terrain, which is why AWD cars are a necessity to even compete.
Reels Rihard shut up loser, group B drivers aren't God, they just so happened to be the best at driving on rugged terrain with strenuous training. There is a reason why F1 is called the pinnacle of Motorsport. There is no evidence to support that rally drivers are the best drivers on the planet just because they drive of road doesn't mean they will be instantly great on tarmac. By your logic I guess those that race planes or dirtbikes are the best, since the conditions they race in are much more hostile.
Reels Rihard No way man! What are you talking about? I watch both for many years now and I can say that. There's a reason why f1 drivers are called Pilots. Rally drivers for sure they have a very hard task but they are not Gods. They are meant to drive like that aka drifting. If f1 drivers were also trained from young age even later, they would do the same. Have you seen Hakkinen's drift in the snow? I mean it was just a small demonstration for the purpose of Top Gear but you can realise what I 'm trying to say. That it is fairly easy for a pilot to do anything. The speed and acceleration differences are chaotic between these 2 sports. Nothing compares to F1. Period. Ah almost forgot. The most important...Overtaking. Do you think it's harder to just trying to make the best time alone even with difficult environmental conditions or actually fight with 20 pilots for so many laps? Rally is just as the qualifying session in f1. The race is where you get all those amazing performances that the whole world memorises for decades. That is the actual proof that make f1 drivers unique and incomparable in people's eyes. Pure skills can only be seen there.
@@riemannx1 as a fan of both I can say with confidence that while F1 drivers are definitely at the pinnacle of driving, but group B was in another realm of its own. Those cars were not only modded to beyond what anyone imagined was possible the drivers oh god the drivers were just something not from this world. While F1 is definitely what comes to mind when one thinks of the best in precision driving, really takes a step further. Averaging 130+kph on a constantly changing track while dealing with variables such as people being on the track and massive cliff drops, I can't even begin to fathom the rate their minds were calculating every move. During that Era F1 drivers drove cars that wanted to kill them while Rally drivers especially Group B drive cars that not only wanted to eat them alive but as well as everyone around them, true demons. It's an unfair comparisons as they requirements to be the best in either are similar yet completely different
its just amazing how one man with one dream can capture all our dreams. how just by being dedicated to every thing you do you can win so many hearts and love now 20 years after his death. RIP big S
I had the pleasure of meeting him; he signed a McLaren brochure for me and the following year I meet him again and he signed two photographs that I had taken the previous year.
I will never forget those Sundays when we used to stay glued on the TV watching the races and see Senna winning. The sound of the cars fascinated me and Senna was my idol. The last race, the last chance we had to see Senna to win again, got frozen at the moment he hit... we all jumped, but in silent, watching and praying that he would get out of the car walking... and nothing... he was hurt, we were all crying like he was a family member or a very close friend... a little later we all learned that he passed... that was the most sad day of my life... Senna will be forever remembered and always the greatest racer we've ever known. ..
+Ana Rita Museitef Same memory being a little kid watching the race with my dad and my brothers, that accident it frozes us all, we were waiting for him to climb out, pero when he didnt my dad turned off the tv and he stood up and went to his room without saying a word! After the news of him being dead, my dad bought a brazilian flag and hung it in his balcony and had it for years! Gracias Ayrton por todo desde Argentina
i remember that race in Interlagos..i was so overjoyed that i lost my voice from happyness..thank you for that memory,Ayrton..always in my heart you'll be
you have to say, Senna was the most passionate F1 driver all time, causes the impression the he is racing even now! in my mind and in our memories he still driving he never stopped, he never die
01-05-21. Ayrton Dead 27 years ago. I am 47 year old, and I can say: Ayrton Senna was the best of te best pilot in the F1 history. No doubt! Argentina love you Ayrton. You were always on our mind..!
@@felipea.3221 Ayrton foi brilhante. Um piloto único. Tão legal quanto Pelé, Maradona, Carlos Monzon, Gustavo Kuerten ou Manu Ginobili poderiam ter sido. E são tão grandes que na minha opinião já não têm bandeira. Eles não pertencem exclusivamente a um país. Talvez como boas bandas de música. Ayrton foi diferente pela história de sua vida, por seus olhos, por sua fundação de caridade, por salvar a vida de Erik Comas, por lamentar a morte de Ratzenberger e por orar a Deus fazendo curvas a 300 km / h. Certamente haverá bons pilotos. Senna não haveria outro. Da mesma forma que não haverá outro Pelé ou outro Maradona
Some people were never meant to get old and wrinkled up. They were meant to be remembered young! I can't imagine seeing Senna as an old man, just like I couldn't imagine Cobain as an old man. Nature claims certain people earlier, as nature wants their images engraved as always young in our hearts.
Piloto para ganhar um campeonato sempre irá existir, mas com qualidades de um MITO como foi Airton Senna,nunca irá existir outro no planeta. Valeeeeeuuuu!!!! SENNA!!!!!

but, to make this film, i've watched hours and hours and hours of footage and the thing is, Villeneuve was spectacular on a number of accasions, Senna he was spectacular every single time he got in a car.

There will never be another Senna again...
Great mate...
Senna was magic, once in a lifetime real magic, there were a lot of great drivers and legends, Fangio, Clark, many drivers have better records, but Senna driving was different! His driving was completely and magically out of this planet!
Sent from God. Returned. This is Ayrton Senna
Man, he is not a racer, he is THE racer.
*Whenever I need motivation I come here inmediately*
Whenever i need to cry i come tere immediately
Amazing video..
Brilliant music..
Very powerfull..
Rip Senna, rip Kobe
Truth.
True, this video relax me
Moi aussie
One of my treasured moments during qualifying in 1991 at Silverstone out of a crowd of approximately 200 I was the only one that waved with my arms reaching up as high as possible to Senna as he went past it was then he lifted his right hand from gripping the steering wheel and made a wave hand to reply to my wave. That something I am very proud of!
Senna you’ll always be a real gentleman!
Richard Bradbury
I was at silverstone 91,92,93 Friday practice to race day I was 15 in 91 and my dad and me used to go to copse right on the apex
My dad was a mansell fan and I was a senna fan and I remember him calling senna a wsnker everytime he went past 😂
Little did I know those were to be some of the best days of my life.
We walked the track after and only now I can apriciate how privlaged I was
You must feel very special when your remembering those moments and yes you are privaliged to even get a wave from Ayrton
I saw imola94 live and a very long time later I still can't look at senna without bursting into tears
@@MrCatseyes01 you both are a privileged guys. What an amazing time to be alive and see those legends near you! I'm brazilian and a fan from both Senna and Mansell. They were entertaining, competitive and sportsman as hell.
@@FiasaPower thank you for the kind words.
And yes it was a once in life time experience I'll never forget it
@@FiasaPower and I'd like to say, from every senna fan from every part of the world.... Thank you brazil we love you

"Ayrton Senna never died.
He is just a lap ahead from the rest of us", someone once wrote.
30 years ago I lost my idol, inspiration, the older brother I never had and to whom I looked upon with admiration.
I came to hate May 1st. And 30 years on it still hurts as if it was yesterday. A day that left me totally numb for a long time, as I wished every second to wake up from an awfull nightmare. One of the saddest days of my life. It was SO unfair!!!
I miss you my Brother. I have tears in my eyes. I hope that there is an afterlife to see you race again.
tarde de Domingo mais triste de sempre...
This is honestly one of the most inspiring things I've seen...
⭐In 1989 the normally aspirated engines arrived and many thought that Senna would lose some of his amazing speed without turbos. But Ayrton remained supremely fast in all conditions. While going around corners he still refused to take his foot off the gas pedal, a technique he learned as a kid during his karting years.
Ayrton Senna actually believed he had the God-given right to win. His trust in divine intervention helped him to go faster than he normally could have. Being guided by a higher power enhanced his performance beyond what it would have been without religion. His faith made all the difference. Ayrton had an unshakable belief that he was fulfilling God's will.
He prepared himself better than any other driver before, both physically and mentally. He was an innovator in using sport psychology, physical, and mental trainer Nuno Cobra before anyone else in Formula 1. He used techniques to control his breathing and relax when he was becoming over-aroused. These methods allowed him to concentrate at almost superhuman level and get into the zone almost at will during races.
Gerhard Berger: Once he was focused he didn't feel any pain or stress. Nothing. Damon Hill: He talked about a state of mind he got into whereby he was there, but not really driving the car. Prost describes how, after a race at Monaco, Ayrton explains how he monitored his performance during the race itself: He managed to visualize from a 'third person' perspective (i.e. as if watching from outside) during the race and corrected his mistakes.
Ayrton Senna had the qualities to be the best racing driver of his time, and that is exactly what he was. His tombstone simply reads:
'Nothing can separate me from the love of God'
Thank you for sharing this.
His passion for racing was such that he sometimes got transported in to another world. Some called him a genius. The eye of the tiger, you could have seen in Senna eyes. Whatever it was, Ayrton had that aura, his enthusiasm, inquisitiveness and energy was infusive. Alain Prost believed him to be a madman who thought God was his co-pilot.
In 1994, we lost a champion and an equally great man. Such was his greatness that an Austrian flag was found in his car after the crash. It was a flag Senna was going to raise in the honour of Austrian Roland Ratzenberger who had died on the same track just a day before.
Ayrton Senna is an inspiration to us all, that's his legacy. Your legacy is your destiny created through hard work, determination, dedication, discipline and an unremitting devotion. Dreams do come true.
In Japan, since senna died, many people stopped seeing f1. People who did not know f1 at the time also knew senna, and everyone liked him. Bring a lot of victories with the Honda engine, nurture friendship,
He loved Japan. It is really sad that senna died.
Antti Kalhola has a wonderful talent.
I was impressed. Thank you.
I think FIA should hire him.
Alonso
the same thing in Brazil! Formula 1 is not the same for us after 01 May 1994
I have been an F1 fan since a young boy. My father took me and my brother to the US Grand Prix in Long Beach in 1977. I've loved F1 ever since. My favorite driver was Nigel Mansell. But after Senna died I stopped watching F1 for several years. I can't explain why, but I just did. He was truly a great man on and off the track. He was, is and always will be missed. He was THE BEST F1 driver of all time.
you from Japan?
@@superleggera7868 No. I'm from the U.S.
"...you commit yourself to such a level where there is no compromise. You give everything you have, everything, absolutely everything..." Senna, Ayrton
"So, everytime you are close to those limits, the excitement increases, and your heart goes quicker..... and your breath goes stronger" this guy was very very emotional and soul
“I just love racing. I just love the challenge of beating somebody else, and on many occasions, even beating myself“
He would have given the SHOE enough Headaches that he would not have Won 7 Would Championships cuss SENNA might have Won 7
He made be Brazilian proud. And I was proud to be Brazilian, for a while. Not so much in recent years. I miss him a lot
@@Fabtp76 My wife is brazilian and I am mexican ! Be proud to be Brazilian amigo , Senna will live 4ever and brazilian politics has nothing to do with what distinguish brazil , Senna is a hero , politicians are no one.

- donated 400 millions for charity;

@@unchartedgaming4733 to me and to 80% of the f1 champions Senna is the best.(sry for bad english)
95%!!!! 🏅More Brilliant, Biggest Heart♥️, More Talent! Em uma Época que quatro ou Cinco Brigavam por Títulos. Certamente SENNA se competisse até os 40 como o Kimi Raikkonen Provavelmente teria Vencido de 8 a 10 Títulos🍾!!!

He gave us a near perfect sports car should be. The Honda NSX
You may adore Hamilton , Verstappen etc but there can be only one Aryton Senna. He is miles ahead of the rest and adored even today. To me , the greatest ever F1 Driver. A Legend and an Icon.
Eu levo no meu coração: Jesus caminhou sobre as águas, como te amo meu Jesus. Senna andou sobre a chuva.
I agree . 👌
@@NostalgicusIch stimme auch zu !!!
You could say, since Hamilton idolizes/respects Ayrton, that without Senna, there might not have been a Hamilton anyway..
@@threadtapwhisperer5136simply the best.
Damn, great film.
It wasn't about driving at all, but about the pursuit of perfection.
His principles can be applied to anyone's life.
Agreed, I wish I was half the man Senna was...with his talent, dedication, work ethics....let alone to be able to have the kind of work that I would absolutely love doing so much that I would even consider it my hobby.
I don't know if you follow Nascar, but Senna is the Dale Earnhardt of the Brazilians.
@@Balnazzardi as he said "the main thing is to be yourself" - never, never, never look at someone like Senna and think "i wish i was like him". You are you. God created you this way, you are not incomplete, you are complete. Saying "i wish" shows me you haven't been expanding your limitations. You are trapped within your own psycholgical self-image. You think you can only run 7km, i bet you you could run 15 today. You just haven't pushed yourself enough to believe it.
@@Balnazzardi by the way correct me if I'm wrong on what I just said. Senna was a very special soul, these people are there to remind us what we're capable of, not trap us. They show us what can be done...
@@leonardod1846 yes. But not only for Brazil, but also for the whole world.
I can say I'm truly lucky to have gotten a picture with senna when I was a little boy in detroit.I'll keep it forever and one day I will send a copy to his foundation. Senna had no equal.
Thats amazing, where was the picture taken?
You should at least sent a copy for then. That's precocious.
Esse era o cara
@@pablonavas8808 in Detroit do you even read?
@@n3n4d lol thanks for the aclaration, nerd
Here I am, to celebrate him once more. 30 years without the best F1 pilot.
There is a huge difference in being a world champion and being The Champion of the World, Champion of the People, Senna was that.
🌹🕊🌹
Well said! Champion of people! Champion in people's hearts! A true champion!! Senna❤️❤️
Not only that, but a Champion of Life too. He was an example, something to look up to.
Champion of the world, he was.
I was 17 when he died and I still miss him. He was our hero, our pride. It was like losing a family member or a close friend. The most crowded funeral in Brazil ever.
I was 19 myself. I remember that day as if it were yesterday. I remember watching the race at my friend's place and then having this knot in my stomach, even though the commentators were treating it like a normal accident. I told my friend I had a bad feeling about this one. I remember watching the news hours later and being so completely devastated. I may not be Brazilian, but I know exactly how you felt. Of all the great sports stars in all the sports I have ever known, there was no one like Senna.
same here
I was 29 in Berkeley, California, and I cried like a baby. Still not over it
i was only born in 2001 but although i never saw him racing, by the footage i can say that he was and still is the best driver and he is an inspiration to me. to do and i love and give absolute everything i have in what i am good. just to see him driving i always cry i dont know why
i felt the same that day. best of all time. true 89 champion(stoled by balestri). and
he did not win 92 and 93 because willians had active suspension and mclarens losed honda motors. but he wins a lot of races in very inferior conditions, this guy was a alien pilot.
I’m 17 and although I never got to see him racing, seeing how much people adored him brings tears to my eyes. I believe it’s 25 or 26 years since he passed, but the legend lives on!
Oh yes..
I was 9 years old or young if you wish, when he died, i cried so much..
Even today, at age of 34, i cone here and watch this video every now and then..
Senna was a special man..
Such a great charisma..
He will never be forgotten, such a great person he was..
Just look for videos from his memorial, omg.. The whole Brasil was there, on the streets..
Senna was so adored, he was greater than life..
Something like Kobe Bryant..
Rip legends
Ayrton is so special, he's considered a Hero here in Brazil, i'm 22 years old, never got to see him drive, but it's impossible to grow up here in Brazil without hearing about Ayrton Senna, my parents, uncles, teachers all talked about him, and ONLY good things, he was such a humble and determined human being, he brought hope and joy to all Brazilians, and still do! I miss him so much even tho i wasn't even born when he died.
01/05/96
He really gave hope to Brazilians. He was what we ever dreamed of. Successful thru really hard work and dedication.
*_Nice photo where i can find it?_*
pfffff.... miss you Ayrton! cant believe its 30 years!! 😔
best of all time, I believe he was born to race, he died while doing what he loved
I remember his funeral....more people than when our king died...
He Was First of all A Great Person... BETTER than A Great Pilot Of History...For BECO All Honour 4EVER...Mi Manchi BECO... TANTO SEMPRE AMICO FRATERNO VERO AMICO CARO... Max
He was A King Of Brazil..Still Today...tvb BECO..
Who king?
@@leonardod1846 kong king!
I was at the San Marino Grand Prix 1994 in the main stand the day Senna crashed. The Pedro Lamy JJ Lehto crash on the start line happened right in front of me. Then the unforgettable sight of Senna's severely damaged car being brought back on a low loader to the pits after Senna had been helicoptered to the Hospital. A weekend I will never forget.
I watch this video everyday, I just love it!
I can see why man. I love to watch this before i hit the gym.

The Great Ayrton Senna, the fastest F1 driver of all time ✨
Other than sheer talent, what’s Senna’s secret? Focus, passion, restlessness and relentlessness, intensity, self-awareness. All of it in one person. Legend.
We are in 2020. I cried. Nothing more to say.
I cried too....BECO ALWAYS SENNA...
You are The Best..4EVER
Ayrton You Still Are in Our Heart..Forever...ti voglio bene BECO ALWAYS...
me too
Tears just roll every time i see him,words cannot explain the grief
I'm a racing fan as of quarantine (got a sim wheel) and seeing anything senna makes my eyes sweat a little, and I've not even got a whole life of being in the culture and community forming deeper connections. Stories about senna make me weep man.
I used to hate you for being unbeatable, always faster than anybody else by far. Like someone from another planet. I have to admit to you Ayrton Senna, you are the greatest F1 talent whom ever walked the earth. You are the true GOD of formula one!
He was the "pantomime villain" to us, the man who was denying "Our Nige". I wish I had known and appreciated then, what I know now 20 years later. Ayrton Senna was the greatest driver in F1, and an amazing human being too. I often find myself wondering what would have happened had he lived. Would he now be a humanitarian working with UNICEF or the UN? President of Brazil even?
As for the quote posted - It's one of the most inspirational things I've ever heard.
+Mike M Senna was the only hero I ever had. 'Nige' was the only driver I respected as much as Ayrton.
Atti Trollhättan no, Fangio is the best F1 driver that has ever lived.
I find it funny you to say that, Mike, because I would not believe in this 2 years ago.
Brazil is currently under a severe political crisis.
Our "known" politicians are all under heavy scrutiny because they are all under serious accusations of being corrupted.
Our next presidential elections are in the next year, and honestly, a fair share of the population is dissatisfied about their options. I believe Senna would've won if he was alive now. Seriously. And even though I don't like mixing TV celebrities and politics, I would vote for him, given our situation.
But he was beatable. Prost outscored him in both years that they were teammates. Senna had to always be at the limit to beat Prost, who just as fast but could do it with ease.
Hoy cumpliría 64 años. El mejor piloto. Un gran ser humano. Nadie como el gran Ayrton Senna.🏆🍾
Ayrton un mito!! ❤❤❤❤❤
I've never seen Senna racing because I'm too young, but when I went to the memorial at Imola, I couldn't keep the tears inside. There's a strange and beautiful peace there; the silent is only broken by the sound of the cars on the track
I saw him racing and i was 16 when he died.
I remember my older brother was very sad and i remember he said Senna was the best...
The onboard videos from back then are much more intense.
***** Ah! Okay. I don't know much about cars or racing, but one day I'm going to make it out to a Formula 1 race. Probably the one in Brazil, but I am not sure.
***** really the cars today are beasts... but that thay it was like 1500bhp and the H gearshift makes it much more dificult to drive on the limits
***** yea thats true, it just took a lot more balls
yeah pilots like alonso and hamilton are totaly one of a kind... but i really think they cant beat Senna.... he was just a genius.... it ll be hard to born someone like him
yeah... when u see an onboard take of him on the rain... u can see he correcting the trajectory every second.... its insane
The first driver I've seen drifting a F1! A real legend!
As much as i love Ayrton, check Giles Villenueve
Villeneuve was Senna's inspiration. He was crazier than Senna but that costed his life, Senna was also agressive in his way of driving but nothing like Giles.
Villenueve you sure? i know clark and fangio were his inspirations but didnt know giles was too! Fantastic driver! One of a kind
DaCensored Fangio
Search for best overtake on F1...is actually a drift OVER Senna, by Piquet.
As far as I'm concerned, Ayrton Senna DID have a God-given right to win! Unquestionably he was the most charismatic & electrifying driver in F1 history, and we'll never see another racer like him again. RIP Legend! You'll never be forgotten.
One of my greatest hero’s. Certainly one of the greatest drivers of all time. Without a doubt the greatest qualifier in the history of F1
25 bloody years.
Ayrton, how can we forget you??
Luis Ignacio Vargas Franco #Never_Ever_Forgotten!
Luis NEVER.. AYRTON vive SEMPRE IN NOI... AYRTON Is A Legend...and Only Him Is A GREAT DRIVER OF HISTORY...

legends cannot be forgotten
AYRTON Is in OUR HEART ALWAYS...BECO VIVE..
He drove F1 cars like a rally car!!!! Shimmying, drifting, overstearing, lighting the wheels kicking the back out coming out of bends! Amazing! The best driver ever to get in a car, Senna ✊🏼💯 🏎💥
He, like Gilles Villeneuve before him always left everything on the track. Never saved anything and gave it his all. That is why he was so determined and so bloody quick. What a legend.
3:15 that downshifting exhaust fire and sound... INSANE!

I have only one regret, he never drow a Ferrari... But in Italy we all love Senna. 🇮🇹🇧🇷
I can't imagine how many more titles Senna would have won if he did not die and continued his career racing for Ferrari alongside Michael. Maybe in another reality in a different universe, Michael and Ayrton were teammates.
Maybe 1 title 2 tops
That would’ve never have happened because of his way he dealt with Prost. Senna couldn’t deal with a driver with similar talents. He had to be the number one in the team simple
At least two titles. Probably three (95, 96 and 97) and maybe more.
To be teammate with Schummi would be impossible since both of them wouldn't accept be nº2.
Schummi was very good, one of the best ever for sure, but he couldn't stand pressure to win a title, and that was his main flaw in my opinion. He fell to both Villeneuve (in a shameful fashion) and Hakkinen, good but nothing special drivers at all. He would even lose to Hill, shouldn't he do that ridiculous manoeuver at Adelaide. Whenever Schumacher faced real, tough competition, he fell. He only worked best with top team working exclusively for him, including his teammate.
Senna, in other hand, was forged in those horrible times of the 80's. He was a competition machine as were Prost, Mansell, Piquet and many other tough contenders unwilling to submit to anyone. They're not in the same league.
Maybe Schumacher would evolve himself in this regard if Senna stayed alive, I think he would.
I think he would’ve won a 4th title. And that would’ve been it.
@Bashir Hayek In a team with Schumacher, Senna would have been number 1, there are no doubts about that. Also, OP: I wish I could live in that reality.
Senna will always be like a God to me, try and live life by Senna approach, you will surely become a better person. RIP for eternity. Much loved and much missed.
He was an example not only in the sport, but in life as a whole. He will live forever.
Ayrton truly was one of a kind. Not only was he incredibly fast, but he had a mystique about him that hasn’t been seen in F1 since. We’ll never see it again.
Lewis j agree with You..Ayrton Is A Legend..and A Friend..
I think' s dedication he put, he made alot of sacrifice to had that performance, and who study about F1, knows he had a results with cars the same level to another drivers, so was the driver made difference
you are right about the mystique. It is impossible to compare F1 drivers of different periods, so much changes, so you have to express your feelings about their character, and leave the driving, the speed, the results, to one side, those are for others to argue about! There are several drivers who I admired, not in any order, so, Fangio, Moss Senna, Clark, Stewart, Bell. I was lucky to meet Stuart, Moss and Bell. I helped a friend race a Ferrari 250 swb berlinetta several times, he shared the driving at Goodwood with both Bell and Moss, on different years, their best times were the same. Derek Bell was great to talk to, very helpful to my wife and I, both amateur racers of historic Formula Junior cars. One time, in the pits, Moss's wife needed a chair, I got one from the office, put it down, and Stirling promptly sat in it! No comment! Anyway, Senna did have something about him, and it was a tragedy that a faulty weld to the steering column caused it to break, and his terrible crash. May he enjoy another life beyond this one he deserves it.
El mejor piloto de la historia. A 25 años, recordándolo como cada día. Un saludo desde Argentina. SENNA #1

This is the best senna tribute on UA-cam período!
i watching this almost each day
i agree..just..try to be yourself..by Ayrton
Yes
No
After a year, are you still watching this? hahaha
I do the same bro!
1200 horse power, no power steering, no paddle shifters and very little downforce compared to today's cars. Driving that car to the limit must have been like fighting a wild beast!
When he was shifting gears, he held the wheel with his left hand only! And he shifted a lot to keep his breaks functioning. The pedalwork he does is fun to watch too! His right foot simultaneously controlled the break and gas to keep the engine in the optimal Rev. Band and I doubt he was watching the tachometer he was listening to sounds. He worked hard but looked so effortless.
fully manual also, no traction control too
Those cockpits in senna era so shady compared to now crazy way unsafe that’s why drivers off senna years always knew could be there last race today cockpits look 20 times safer guess everything evolves for me greatest driver I’ve ever seen and his charismatic character made him one of a kind
Exato, agora soma td que vcs disseram aqui, e lute contra essa fera ( carro de 1.200 CV) no braço em Mônaco.
Senna is remembered for his driving but he also did a lot for his country and charity for children without boasting about it. He was an apex predator on track and a deeply passionate and intellectual human being. Thank you Toleman for taking a chance on a rookie who would turn out to be a legend.
Yes, but don't forget Williams also did a test with him. They also had the opportunity but passed on him.
Senna was a F3 Champion by then. One good team or the other would've eventually snapped him up. He was always destined to be a legend.
@@adityanarain9428 And yet idiots like Hamilton went straight to a top team.
@@thepsychologist8159They didnt pass on him...I think I've read somewhere he had 3 or 4 options, He tested with Williams,Brabham and Toleman but those 2 were asking for a amount of money he didnt have at the time and then he bought the seat at Toleman.
Cool to mention he was breaking the records of the official drivers on the tests and with Brabham at Paul Richard Piquet later said in an interview after Ayrton's passing he made a $100k bet with Bernie that Senna wouldn't beat his time, he said he knew Paul Richard sucked during the afternoon and that there was no way someone would be faster than a time set in the morning then he did his lap early in the morning so he wouldn't let the rookie beat his time. Senna's lap was 1.9 slower during the afternoon and Piquet won the bet 😂
@@thepsychologist8159I think he also had talks with McLaren but they offered a reserve role with no guarantee he would race for them..
Every time I watch anything like this or any tribute to him I have to stop myself from crying because to me he’s the father I never had. He’s my hero and shows me what it means to have faith and be a good man. It might sound cheesy to some but I don’t care. I’m crying now damn it.
The best driver ever.
Me too. And remembering him with joy for who he was, what he did, what he stood for.
110% agree!! I always come to see this video when happy or sad. It's like your father/uncle giving you a advice to take path with precisely!
You're strong Man Aaron! Believe me
Great luck for us to see him driving
The Best👑👑👑
Senna: the best. There is nothing more to be said.
Don't get me wrong, I was a Schumacher fan too. Schumacher was amazing, almost superhuman, as were Clarke, Fangio, and Prost as well.
But Senna was the best.
Paul White he was the driver's driver
Don’t forget Villeneuve 😃🙏🏼
Senna was the best but henri toivonen was the bravest
Schumacher said for him the best is Senna.
@@JonasH0707 Agreed! I usually remember Gilles when I see Senna racing and immediately watch some videos of Villeneuve's. I find them very very alike really. Miss them loads and also hope Shumi is doing better and better every day.
Let's be honest. There is no one like Ayrton in F1. Before or after.
He was not just an special driver. He was an special character.
wrong, there was Gilles.
There will never be another Ayrton Senna. The epoch of which he was a part is over and will never return.
That's why he crashed all by himself and went to hell.
@@JIA1327 The only one going to hell is you for being a goddamned fool. Senna went to heaven - of course he did because he was a GOD! BOOM! MIC DROP! OWNED! HAH!
His Greatest mistake was changing to Williams racing. Even he was not sure of the car he was offered by Williams team due to lack of advanced safety that was put into practice during that season but he still chose to go with it and that too, after two major accidents in two days(one fatal and one near fatal) before his race day...thats what his commitment to the profession was...he was born to race without fear and success always chased him..if he had chosen to stay with Ferrari, then I doubt anyone in the near future would be able to break his records...most important and admirable, he donated almost 80% of his earnings at the prime of his career to the poor in Brazil
One of the best Men in the history. I miss him :(
i wish we could hear him talk one more time...
Sérgio Gonçalves :( if he don't die senna will be winning and Winning the race
many do not understand that the cars that drove Senna were true indomitable beasts.
today's Formula one cars are much much easier to control and to push to the limit
The fastest Formula One driver ever in the wet he it was between one and three seconds faster than his opponents in qualifying he was unbeatable.
And above all he was a great generous and very humble man with Senna formula one was another thing.
the king of Formula one.
Still cry sometimes when i watch this...
Senna NEVER died. He reached a speed no being ever has and turned the universe inside out. We're the ones who died👍
The yellow helmet will never forget, the immortal legend of all time....
Kugel the colour of Ayrton Is A World...He Was And He Is Still Today An Icon..and It s a our Idol 4EVER..

Finne72 I remember the last three consecutive pole positions that he get with the Williams, losing track and almost getting out in every curve, fighting agains a young Schumacher, everybody thought he was loosing time. When in reality he was walking in the limits of the F1, right in the edge of the limits of his car! Unbelievable he did it again and again, the perfect lap, I still remember the commentators “Senna got the pole position”

Best racing driver in the history of the sport
He’s been an inspiration to me, he’s the reason I love racing. I’ve been saving money for the last 4 years to buy a good race kart so I can begin my journey of a racing driver.
Don’t give up you’ll get there I had a crap go kart when I was ten it belonged to my cousin I drove the hell out of that thing and used senna throttle technique win a regional and state championship and used the prize money to buy a better go kart and better gear at the age of 13 and remember don’t be like maheever
Good luck brother, I hope you fly very high
Exactly same here, my dream is to get into F1, and I have been saving my money since I was about 11 or so, I'm 16 now and hopefully this year sometime I can start. When I really started seriously thinking about becoming a racecar driver was when my dad and I would go to track events and he would drive his car on track with me in it, and I absolutely loved the feeling of going fast. Its better than any other feeling, but at the same time I can't explain it. I started driving fourwheelers when I was about 5 years old, and was horrible, first time I got on a little fourwheeler I crashed into my mom's SUV lol, but ever since I have improved. I got to where I could ride it on the side two wheels, and my mom was terrified, but my dad knew. I started karting at events at a track. The first actual timed racing event I won out of 20 something kids, and I still have a trophy framed with my picture. A kid's parent said I didn't look the fastest because of how smooth I was, and I have had this want to be a racing driver. It's hard at times when I don't get a nice car and I get picked on because I want to save my money for racing instead of nice things, but I hope it is all worth it. I want to bring America back into Formula 1, and that is my goal, I'm truly lucky to have parents that are willing to support my dream and not kill me for not going to college. I wish you luck my friend, and hopefully some day we can be rivals.
@@elirussell1796 Good, Senna has his throttle technique from Karting so it's a big advantage. 👍 I would love to Go-Kart, but it's too expensive.

Ayrton is so much emotional, still a child at heart.
Is that an insult? Nothing angry but just a question.
@@noobednatherium4082 I see it as more of a celebration of Senna's refusal to give into adult cynicism by maintaining the optimistic idealism of a child and making into his own reality

Ayrton Senna was my hero...I remember when my dad took me to see the movie when it first came out because he knew how much I admired Senna...my dad would take my brother to dodger games...and me to formula 1 movies...
What movie?
@No No the senna film
This isn't just a vid, this is a piece of art.
It is indeed
The way he talks and what he says f1 was spiritual to him.
4:43 "The main thing is to be yourself. It's basically learning about yourself. Even if you try to be perfect, nobody is perfect. So of course I try to learn from every mistake I make, from every wrong decision I make to not allow it to happen again." (Ayrton Senna)
Daniel AYRTON WAS AND He Is Still Today A Special Person...you Love You BECO...
Daniel For ME WAS AND Still Today Is A Dear Friend And Example as A Person Above All...descanza en Paz BECO ALWAYS SENNA

Ayrton, where ever you are, 26 years are passing by. The only thing that we want to say to you is; we, the fans are stiĺl missing you till de day you left this World at Imola '94. Rest In Peace Senna.
- Your fans
Senna was truly an amazing human being
@@thiaguinhooitodois2211 he was and to the people who call him arrogant he replies for us " Very few people know myself. My true self"
Example of Self Improvement
28 years on, we still miss you legend. You’ll always be the best for me. #sennasempre
my son's called senna.. im 38.. I seen him race.. I love him very much
God Bless your Son !
S2N Moon sir senna is a last name , it would've made more sense to name your son ayrton
Senna is a female name from the Middle East lmao
Not really the same. But i gave my cat the name of Senna.
"But at the end there is no end, only love will remain"
we are energy and the body is just a very temporary experience.
Yes !!!!
This guy is a fucking inspiration a fucking legend!! In the F1 world we have to separate SENNA from the rest, he was fast and brilliant, he was also like a poet of the tracks, a distinctive personality. RIP King!!
Si
Victory belongs to those who believe in it the most and believe in it the longest. Senna’s made us believe in Brazil. Thank you Senna.
Piquet won two world championships before Senna was known in F1.
@@jameshogan6142 fittipaldi won 3 before piquet but Senna is still the most popular of the 3
@@matvt.2451 remember he won in 1972 and 74. Did he win a third? I was never a big fan of Senna although I know many liked him, but I preferred Piquet. He had a great sense of humour and was until his injury a better driver than Senna.
Piquet is homophobic and racist i hate him
@@jameshogan6142 it’s not only about winning. Senna, even only through his speech - which wasn’t the case, anyway -, represented, us, Brazilians. Piquet didn’t. People accuse Ayrton of being arrogant, but that’s not the case. He was just “too” driven, Piquet was (actually IS) an arrogant prick.
Senna is on the pole ,
Example. Human. Spiritual. Unique. Inspiration - SENNA - The One.
I watch this video once a week to motivate myself to do better (along with Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan videos Senna is on the level)
the best of the best.
"The fear fascinates me". - Ayrton Senna
Nelson Piquet say: ''F1's greatest natural talent''.
I grew up with Senna on my TV ,, he was my favourite and I miss him :(
Year after year i came back here to see this footages, everytime i have tears in my eyes at the end...... Man i still miss him so much 😢
I remember being more sad when MJ died.
I remember the day we lost him. I always cry when i see something about Ayrton. The King of the asphalt, the Master of the strategy , the Warrior of the racetrack, we miss You.
Respect.
zz William it was the day of my communion. We were all watching the race. It touched me deeply. In later years i analyzed the crash and circumstances over and over. Was his life taken who really knows. Rip ayrton senna
Wow this video is incredible. I had only recently discovered Ayrton Senna, he seems to have been a fascinating individual.
QueenA watch the documentary Senna (2010 film).
Jon watson (ex driver and TV commentator) said that in 1987 Senna was going to Mclaren and asked him what he thought about the team,Jon answered to him "they are a great team,they have many world championships and they have the best F1 driver alive,you should be patient and conquer your space in the team step by step,slowly" Jon said Senna was riding a bicycle
and before he finish his argument Senna brake the bike answered to him "No,no,no,If I go there, I will destroy Prost in front of everybody physically and mentally, I'll make Mclaren team improve to another level,I'll join them to win and dominate"
and what happened in 1988,1989,1990,1991,1992 and 1993 in Mclaren shows exactly who was Ayrton Senna,what he said to Jon watson he did! Today it is impossible to speak about Mclaren without relate the team to that yellow helmet.
Closest thing to magic
Not dude..the best ever..
Love him. Tears from Thailand
Just like Earnhardt. He wanted to die racing. Finesse feeling car. Machine and man become one
If god wants someone to rip it up in the sky he has his man
2 pac
Did you know when he prayed before his last race, he prayed "give me the best gift of all time"
@@theshanamaster Yeah, amazing, and God give him, the best gift to ayrton was to go with the lord!
Too many unfortunately. No doubt they’re all running in the greatest GP of all time.
Ayrton Senna is the best racing driver all of time and for ever.
No way men, Senna is the greatest f1 driver of all time. But the mad guys of group b are the best drivers of all time.
Reels Rihard Although a driving sport, it's still a very different sport. Rally drivers are meant to drive in tough terrain not meant to be driven on. It's about who's best when all conditions are against you. F1 emphasizes more on who's best when the conditions are meant for everyone to be at full driving potential; which is why F1 cars had 1,200 hp engines with huge slick tires meant for sharp turning, while rally cars, although modded to high hell, are modded more for performing in rugged terrain, which is why AWD cars are a necessity to even compete.
Reels Rihard shut up loser, group B drivers aren't God, they just so happened to be the best at driving on rugged terrain with strenuous training. There is a reason why F1 is called the pinnacle of Motorsport. There is no evidence to support that rally drivers are the best drivers on the planet just because they drive of road doesn't mean they will be instantly great on tarmac. By your logic I guess those that race planes or dirtbikes are the best, since the conditions they race in are much more hostile.
Reels Rihard No way man! What are you talking about? I watch both for many years now and I can say that. There's a reason why f1 drivers are called Pilots. Rally drivers for sure they have a very hard task but they are not Gods. They are meant to drive like that aka drifting. If f1 drivers were also trained from young age even later, they would do the same. Have you seen Hakkinen's drift in the snow? I mean it was just a small demonstration for the purpose of Top Gear but you can realise what I 'm trying to say. That it is fairly easy for a pilot to do anything. The speed and acceleration differences are chaotic between these 2 sports. Nothing compares to F1. Period. Ah almost forgot. The most important...Overtaking. Do you think it's harder to just trying to make the best time alone even with difficult environmental conditions or actually fight with 20 pilots for so many laps? Rally is just as the qualifying session in f1. The race is where you get all those amazing performances that the whole world memorises for decades. That is the actual proof that make f1 drivers unique and incomparable in people's eyes. Pure skills can only be seen there.
@@riemannx1 as a fan of both I can say with confidence that while F1 drivers are definitely at the pinnacle of driving, but group B was in another realm of its own. Those cars were not only modded to beyond what anyone imagined was possible the drivers oh god the drivers were just something not from this world. While F1 is definitely what comes to mind when one thinks of the best in precision driving, really takes a step further. Averaging 130+kph on a constantly changing track while dealing with variables such as people being on the track and massive cliff drops, I can't even begin to fathom the rate their minds were calculating every move. During that Era F1 drivers drove cars that wanted to kill them while Rally drivers especially Group B drive cars that not only wanted to eat them alive but as well as everyone around them, true demons. It's an unfair comparisons as they requirements to be the best in either are similar yet completely different
This is the best tribute on yt.
This one and "Ayrton Senna - Ad Infinitum" are my favourites Senna tributes :)
The best F1 driver of all time
A true genius. No equal in history.
its just amazing how one man with one dream can capture all our dreams. how just by being dedicated to every thing you do you can win so many hearts and love now 20 years after his death. RIP big S
well said bro.
Ahmed El-Genedi very true man you've said a great life's purpose in us all in a few lines. Thank you
Fuck you
Team Slayer vollidiot
Today he died 28 Years ago. Gonna do a minute of silence at 14:17 (the moment he died) Who's with me?
Mandatory watch every year on this day.
It gets emotional even for me, who's never seen him race. Gosh I wish I knew him
And I could know you
Leonard Ayrton Was Incredible..Is Also a Legend..but First of all Was A Great Person...for me a Friend first of all..
The most impressed tribute video I have ever seen.
@Erik Gonzalez Only a few scenes, but he did the editing, put the videos together and synchronized the sounds.
Totally agree.
The best driver of all time. A human in the first place. Something we all forget about.
I had the pleasure of meeting him; he signed a McLaren brochure for me and the following year I meet him again and he signed two photographs that I had taken the previous year.
I will never forget those Sundays when we used to stay glued on the TV watching the races and see Senna winning. The sound of the cars fascinated me and Senna was my idol. The last race, the last chance we had to see Senna to win again, got frozen at the moment he hit... we all jumped, but in silent, watching and praying that he would get out of the car walking... and nothing... he was hurt, we were all crying like he was a family member or a very close friend... a little later we all learned that he passed... that was the most sad day of my life... Senna will be forever remembered and always the greatest racer we've ever known. ..
I have the same feeling and memories....
+Ana Rita Museitef Same memory being a little kid watching the race with my dad and my brothers, that accident it frozes us all, we were waiting for him to climb out, pero when he didnt my dad turned off the tv and he stood up and went to his room without saying a word!
After the news of him being dead, my dad bought a brazilian flag and hung it in his balcony and had it for years! Gracias Ayrton por todo desde Argentina
i remember that race in Interlagos..i was so overjoyed that i lost my voice from happyness..thank you for that memory,Ayrton..always in my heart you'll be
you have to say, Senna was the most passionate F1 driver all time, causes the impression the he is racing even now! in my mind and in our memories he still driving he never stopped, he never die
So true.
01-05-21. Ayrton Dead 27 years ago. I am 47 year old, and I can say: Ayrton Senna was the best of te best pilot in the F1 history. No doubt!
Argentina love you Ayrton. You were always on our mind..!
I haven't the pleasure of seein he Race. But i have the pleasure see the history he made, and be Brazilian as him.
@@felipea.3221 Ayrton foi brilhante. Um piloto único. Tão legal quanto Pelé, Maradona, Carlos Monzon, Gustavo Kuerten ou Manu Ginobili poderiam ter sido. E são tão grandes que na minha opinião já não têm bandeira. Eles não pertencem exclusivamente a um país. Talvez como boas bandas de música. Ayrton foi diferente pela história de sua vida, por seus olhos, por sua fundação de caridade, por salvar a vida de Erik Comas, por lamentar a morte de Ratzenberger e por orar a Deus fazendo curvas a 300 km / h. Certamente haverá bons pilotos. Senna não haveria outro. Da mesma forma que não haverá outro Pelé ou outro Maradona
Some people were never meant to get old and wrinkled up. They were meant to be remembered young!
I can't imagine seeing Senna as an old man, just like I couldn't imagine Cobain as an old man. Nature claims certain people earlier, as nature wants their images engraved as always young in our hearts.
That brought peace to my heart and understanding...thank you very much.
The McLaren Senna was named by this person.... this car will be my dream car now
No crap
Obviously
Piloto para ganhar um campeonato sempre irá existir, mas com qualidades de um MITO como foi Airton Senna,nunca irá existir outro no planeta.
Valeeeeeuuuu!!!! SENNA!!!!!
Insubstituível
Ver Ron Dennis rindo, Mansel, Berger, Prost com aquela cara só comprova podem bater todos os recordes mas piloto igual a ele jamais surgirá igual.
Verdade
Jamas nadie como SENNA jamas!!!!
Amazing memory of the unbeatable Ayrton Senna
"We all miss u, Ayrton..."
