Review of Senna (2010) by Bill C — 21 Dec 2011
Although a little one sided and uneven it is an opportunity to view behind the curtain of Formula 1. The racing points of view shots are amazing, you can see Ayrton correcting the tires 2-3 times a corner.
My favorite part is a candid interview when the interviewer asked who was the greatest racer he had ever challenged. He picked a European carting driver. Anyone who grew up around or been involved in professional racing can attest to the petty bickering and overall lack of enjoyment of the sport at that level.
My second favorite part was his first drive for truly competitive car the Mclaren Honda he was 55 seconds in front of the field. Team order came through to slow down so Alain Prost did not look bad and he lost his rhythm and crashed the car.
I was concerned on how they would handle his death in Italy Its not handled in the morbid side show fascination like Weldon in Las Vegas.
