I miss not only the car god, but also the era of pure racing

There is a chain of contempt in the racing circle. Those who run track races despise rough rally races, and those who run rally races despise calculated track races, but it is undeniable that F1 is the most popular car race in the world with the most fans. F1 competition has also made a lot of racing talents, Ayrton Senna is one of the best.
The film did not start with Senna's highlight moments like a traditional documentary, but started from Senna's go-kart, first appeared in Europe, and talked about Senna's entire career until Imola in 1994. The entire film is 162 minutes long. Fans and movie fans can fully appreciate Senna's every bit. At the end of the film, the car accident that happened at the Imola circuit is introduced.
It is said that the F1 in the 1980s and 1990s was the best-looking. There were not so many electronic auxiliary equipment, and it depended more on the driver's own control of the car. The "original" racing car without any auxiliary equipment has very high requirements for the driver. In the 1985 Monaco Grand Prix, it was raining heavily, and Senna, who was in a small team, was chasing him all the way. Can complete a shocking comeback to win the championship. (Toleman is the predecessor of Benetton. And in Imola in 1994, another little-known young driver drove Benetton to win the championship, his name is Michael Schumacher, a metaphysical historical reincarnation...)
No mention of Senna without mentioning Prost, the French driver nicknamed "The Professor", known for his utilitarianism and calculus. It is a stark contrast to the pure and direct Senna; it also makes the F1 fans at that time divided into two schools, either supporting Prost's race first, and the results are the most important; or supporting Senna's pure racing, regardless of the consequences. It is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong. The collision of the two styles made the game a lot more interesting until the two became teammates. After Senna joined McLaren at Prost, everyone took it for granted that Senna was the team's number two driver. However, as Senna won game after game, the atmosphere began to change subtly. The two after that were like fire and water, and the team couldn't forcefully interfere with their behavior due to their outstanding performance, which also made the competition between the two gradually develop from the competition itself to the outside of the competition. There was even a situation where Senna continued to speed up and humiliate Prost, who was second, despite winning the championship, and the car lost control and lost the good game. In the end, things got completely out of control. For two consecutive years, in order to prevent the opponent from competing for the annual championship, the crashed cars both retired from the race after the start of the race. . .
Senna is a devout Christian, in addition to racing, his favorite is God. For every successful race, Senna not only thanked the team, but also thanked God for his help. Even when he won the Brazilian Grand Prix, Senna said excitedly that he had seen God and gained strength because of it. Genius is always paranoid, and paranoid pursuit of championships can allow him to realize all his potential; paranoid believing in some things can also make him too simple and forget to do other things, such as relationship with teammates, such as on-court politics. At this point, the utilitarian Prost has done much more successfully, and thus more.
The 1994 San Marino Grand Prix did not go well. In practice, Barrichello's car hit the wall and was fortunately slightly injured. In the practice race, Ratzenberger was killed due to serious injuries because the car lost control and hit the retaining wall. Two consecutive accidents cast a shadow over the competition. Senna was also uneasy after Ratzenberger's accident, but the desire to win and to tune up the new car helped Senna take pole position on a terrifying weekend. . . The race didn't go well, with Senna's car oversteering and understeering at times, on the verge of losing control until lap seven, when Senna lost control at the Tamburello corner and hit a parapet. . . . . .
Senna's body was transported back to Brazil and a state funeral was held. The genius's life ended abruptly at the highest point, which was extremely emotional.



The car god is gone, but the voice and appearance are still there.

Senna quotes

  • Viviane Senna: On that morning when he woke up, he asked God to talk to him. He opened the Bible and read a passage which said: God would give him the greatest of all gifts. Which was God himself.

  • John Bisignano: There's only one word that describes Ayrton's style, and that is "fast." He would take the car beyond its design capabilities. He would brake later, fly into these corners where the car was just over the edge, and somehow he could dance a dance with that car to where it stayed on the track.
