Out of the 3 Senna books I have read, this, I must say, disappointed me. It seemed to be an awful lot of guesswork on maybe the clothes he was wearing on certain days or what he may have been thinking. There was an awful lot of text that was not needed and could have been cut out which would have made for a more concise and interesting read.

Being a life long scatterbrain I am amazed by people like Senna who's total focus and concentration on the task at hand is unimaginable. He ability to asses a cars performance has no peers. But his death, like those of Jim Clark, Jochen Rindt and Gilles Villeneuve, prove that consummate skill cannot overcome mechanical problems or just plain bad luck.

Over the years I have read lots of books referencing Senna but I really enjoyed this one because it covered a lot of his racing career ...more

To say I have been deeply touched by the story of this amazing man is an understatement. The biography is fantastically written detailing his racing career in great detail and defining Senna as the great man he was. I pray I meet him in Heaven one day.

Not so much a personal biography as a profile of his career as the top Formula One driver of all time (I dare you to convince me otherwise!).
