I used to have a petite collection of Senna's race in vcr and God knows where the heck they are now. If I remember correctly, it was 1993, Donnington, where Senna showed us all how much of a brilliant drive he was. "Magic Senna" was what they used to call him, The Master of Monaco. A gifted driver and an ace of wet track racing, Senna proved himself different from other championship drivers at his time, amongst them Alain Prost, Karl Wendlinger, Damon Hill and of course, Micheal Schumacher.

It was May 1st 1994 at the San Marino GP, lap 7 at the Tamburello corner that robbed me, us of of one of the most skillful wet track racer the world has ever witnessed, perhaps the best and yes, I dare say it.
This season, we witnessed the introduction of his nephew into Formula One, Bruno Senna of HRT Racing. Well, he started off with a bad start as he failed to finish both of his races of his debut season, but I'd reckon we haven't see the end of it yet. Given the chance, he'll prove himself worthy, maybe even as good as his uncle, better even!

what the HOOT do you know about friggin senna man.
You were freakin 3 when he raced.
Heck to be honest i don't even know who is Senna.
I used to watch his debut season races years back! He used to drive for a team called Toleman - a fucked up team with a fucked up car but when he was behind the wheels, he drove as if God herself took control of the car. Finished 2nd in 1988 Monaco GP when it rained like hell. The used to say that when you sprinkle some water to whatever car Senna was driving, the car becomes a ROCKET! LOL
