Just watched a short tribute to him on telly - still brings a tear to the eye and a lump to the thoat. Please don't forget it's the 15th anniversary of Roland Ratzenbergers death also.
I mention this because I saw Roland race in NZ in a BMW M3 a couple of times, great guy - excellent driver - gone too soon

I remember it like yesterday, I was at an age when more interested in clubbing, Girls etc. I got a phone call from my older brother who was a Senna Nut, Ive never heard him so effected by an event and still is when it is brought up. His room is almost a Monument to him still, Posters, Videos, DVD's., Models etc.
Personally I remember Aryton for the look of absolute concentration in his eyes, Its like peering into his soul.
Yes gone to soon RIP Ayrton. And RIP Roland too, We never got to see his full potential. |

May 1st 94 is one of the few days you never forget where you have been and you can describe every little detail of this day, like branded into your brain ... an event like 9/11, the fall of the Berlin Wall, World Cup for Germany and the birth of my son.
RIP Ayrton

The blackest weekend that I can remember during my time of watching F1.
One can only hope that the safety measures that came out of this will ensure that such a tragedy will never happen again. |

| Another year gone and perhaps there is a fitting, lasting tribute with the upcoming release of the Senna documentary. |
