The greatest driver in modern F1

Theres no doubt that the late Ayrton Senna was the greatest F1 racer of all time, to be matched only by Jim Clark, Fangio, Stewart, and to a lesser extent Schumacher. Mr Hilton, does an excellent job in covering one of the worlds greatest athletes from his early childhood days, karting to his final race and tragic end at Imola 1 May 1994. The book has many nice photos of Senna in action. This is a must have for any racing fan. This is a tribute to Brazils national hero and king of modern era of Formula One. Long live Ayrton Senna..Sempre Senna!

From a former Senna's school colleague

I have studied at the Colegio Rio Branco, during the same time as Ayrton's, and all of us who met him at that time remember him as being a very quiet and nice guy, already a big name in kart racing in Brazil. He indeed was an introspective young man, but was not a bad student at all. The initial chapters of this very good book made me remember our old times at high school, and the author did a very good job in describing the psychological profile of the young genious Senna. This book also recounts nice anecdotes about his life after he'd moved to England, all the way up to becoming the greatest grand prix driver ever. From this book we all can see that the man was not only a great F1 driver, but also an exceptional human being, who left us all too early. A very enjoyable reading.

Awsome book

Great book with lots of information that every Senna fan will like. Many good quality photos and interesting well developed story. It covers all personal performance of the driver including comments from people that he knew, he raced agains ant ppl he worked with. A must have for every single Ayrton Senna fan. I'm really happy that I bought it.

Masterpiece

people if you are a true Senna fan you have to buy this book. It doesnt contain statistic, numbers, etc.The book goes about Senna s life in and out F1. There are a lot of people who worked with him and they are telling his whole life. How he was, what he did, etc. Bye the way: Schumacher and Senna are also compared a lot of times with each other. That is really interesting. They had almost the same career and abilities.Even his school is written (and pictures of that). This book is very good to read. If you really want to know how the person Senna (in and out F1) was this is a good book.Really

A very attractive book about an outstanding driver.

This book is very attractive for every Senna fan, from the expert to the neophyte. The 2 central chapters are very important to clarify what happened form the last days to the moment that the car struck the wall. A extraordinary "slow motion" of facts in the last 5 seconds before the impact and a summary of the investigation and the trial made in Italy are the highligths of this book. A lot of interesting interviews with some important persons of motor racing and formula 1 help to built a mosaic of pictures of Senna as a driver and a human being. Nearly to 100 photographs, most of it "first release", and a touchy chapter nomination with the strophes of the famous song "AS TIME GOES BY" are another outstanding features of the fifth book of the more passionate and racional balanced author of lots of Senna books.
