In case you forgot just how awesome the Brazilian was…

1. First test in Formula 1, in 1983

One of the few times you’ll ever see a nervous Senna.
2. First GP win, at Portugal in 1985

An early example of his mastery in the rain, as (almost) missed by Murray “Am I seeing things?” Walker.3. Opening lap at Donington in 1993

One of the most famous single laps in F1 history. Senna was “on it”.4. Greatest battles vs Alain Prost

Always much more fun with excitable Japanese commentary.5. Saying no to Nigel

Shutting the door on a charging Mansell at Monaco in 1992. A masterful display of how not to let an angry man with a moustache overtake you.

6. Winning his first Brazilian GP, 1991

It took Senna seven seasons to finally claim victory in his home GP. When he did, the crowd went nuts, as you might expect.
