5.0 out of 5 stars A truely gripping video of a man who was a phenomenon, 9 Jan 2001

By	sc2198@soton.ac.uk (UK) - See all my reviews

This video truely has a lot of personal insights in the life of Ayrton Senna.

Vivian Senna talks about Senna when he was a child, his adult life as a racing driver, the difficulties he experienced and the objectives of the Ayrton Senna Foundation.

Interviews with close friends, his manager (Julian Jacobi), his cousin and people working at the foundation outline the tremendous character and joyful personality of the great man. While interviews with work collegues/friends (Prost, Alesi, Brundle, Ron Dennis and Jo Ramirez) give an insight into Senna as a driver...The hard working and dedicated life he had devoted himself to.

Senna himself talks about many subjects, his life inside and outside of motor racing, death, his most memorable races, the importance of training and health, relaxation, problems and so on, which really gives you an idea of Senna's way of thinking.

The video is also packed with coverage of races in F1, F3, FFords, karts and whole laps of in-car footage from Monaco 90, Donnington 93 and Brands Hatch 85.

Overall.... A compeling video. Not to be missed by fans of Senna, or people who mis-understood him. This video brings you closer to the phenomena, man, driver and philosopher, that was Ayrton Senna.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing! This video is a REAL must! Believe me !, 29 May 2000

By A Customer

Of all the Ayrton Senna video biographies I have viewed this one is the one to have. Not only does it show how incredible a driver he was but also what he was like out of the car, there is much more to this great man then racing. Hearing Senna saying how that 'In one moment you can be gone - just like that' still sends shivers down my spine no matter how many times I view the footage. To appreiciate and enjoy this video you don't need to be an avid fan of F1 or Ayrton because you can see an insight into how this great man worked and lived.

Whatever you do buy this video, you won't regret it I promise you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best F1 video I own..., 16 Nov 2000

By A Customer

This is an absolute must buy... This video shows so much about Ayrton that no other video has ever shown. It includes interviews with his old school friends, his sister and also old karting rivals. The video shows how dedicated Ayrton was to his profession and just how much effort he put into it. It also shows the relaxed giving side of Ayrton and even includes his own thoughts on death and the risks associated with his passion... motor racing. If I could give this video more stars I would! As I said before, a must buy... no F1 fan should be without it...
