Review of Senna (2010) by Gary N — 11 May 2012
Top notch documentary on probably the best Formula One driver the sport ever had, who was last so tragically in the middle of his career.
Long before electronics and computers took over the cars and drivers just needed to hit the accelerator and hold on- you had to have raw talent and nerve in abundance.
The insights provides from the footage dug up is superb- particularly behind the scenes and in driver meetings. Other highlights include the famed rivalry between Senna and Prost, the latter who had the savvy to get very friendly with Dark Forces i.e. the race organising body officials.
The tale of Senna's disqualification- spurning what would have been his 1st drivers championship- highlighted jaw-dropping favouritism for Prost and alienation for Senna by the FIA. Shocking!
Highly recommended.
