+1, saw it opening night in San Francisco. Made my wife and father-in-law fans of F1 and Senna.

The director was great as well!

Ayrton is the greatest driver I ever saw. Simply, so amazingly brilliant. The Boss...

Senna

Got up to watch every GP at o'dark o'clock to watch that guy -- back in the day.

I cried this day...

The movie brought it all back - too much, so sad...

Glad the documentary has led to so many other's realization of the greatness.

Excellent film. I was never able to see Senna race in person but think at least one driver could match him for car control. I was lucky enough to watch Gilles Villeneuve at the Glen in 1979. Driving the Ferrari 312 T4 in the rain, watching him through the 90, the chicane & the esses, WOW. He was much faster in the wet than Alan Jones' Williams, which was the fastest car in the dry by far. Villeneuves car control was AWSOME. Check out the 1979 USGP on you tube & you will see a true master at work!

Great film about an amazing talent. Top Gear did an excellent tribute piece before the film was released. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNmqn3heGgE

Got to see this last June in Michigan at the Waterfront Film Festival in Saugatuck, Michigan.

It's one of the best documentaries about motor racing I've ever seen - the cars, the teams, the rivalries, the passions and the personalities are are all included with depth and compassion.

Oh. There was a little film screened at the same Festival where I played a small role:

That's why I think it is such a powerful film. My wife, who puts up with my car habit but doesn't have an addiction to autos or racing of her own, thought it was a great documentary.

wife sat through the WHOLE movie. Amazing pure driver.
