I went to see the Senna film last night and I was thoroughly engrossed from start to finish. And I'm not often a fan of subtitles in films, but it added something to it this time. I even had a tear in my eye when the inevitable ending appeared.
If you're a motorsport fan it's a must see!

Seen it a while back and recommend it
It shows the golden era of F1, 1000BHP+, no traction control, non of the new idiotic rules and "FIA inspired technical crap" like DRS
The dark weekend part was quite saddening, especially Prof. Sid Watkins' account of attending Senna's crash.
TBH I was never a Senna fan, but after watching Beyond the Speed of Sound I had a new found respect for the man... although I always acknowledged him as one of the finest drivers ever0 -
going to watch it soon, i was always a prost fan, and as such saw Senna as the enemy, but i was at a race meeting my self that weekend and was deeply saddend by Roland Ratzenburger the day before, and shockingly when senna crashed i actually remember saying "Good, Hope he's dead" :shock: I was a teenager who obviously had too many sweets and was excitable.
How i look at it differently now. May try and watch it tonight as i'm certainly not going to race tonight as its raining.
I watched the documentry "F1 the killer years" a few weeks ago which i can only assume i recoreded xmas time. i was almost in tears watching it, especially some of the shocking footage of the fires etc.0 -
I watched that as well. Some scary stuff. While I enjoy a bit of excitment during a race, I don't want to see anyone actually hurt, so while some of the new regs may be a bit overboard, the safety stuff makes sense.
They should just stauy out of the tech side.
Make it simple - give teams x amount of fuel and leave everything else up to them. Size, weight, etc. And let them make the best of it.I don't do smileys.
