I was still young when the first Formula 1 race came to Hungary... I was there and watched in amazement a black and gold car as a young driver dismissed famous great drivers one after another. I will never forget how I saw in this driver the fighting spirit, the love of racing. I loved him from the first moment... Since 1986 I have been an unwavering fan of Ayrton Senna, the best racing driver the world has ever seen. I saw every race he did after him... I was personally there among the enthusiastic audience at many races. I read every available newspaper article, news, book about him that I could. His accident and death really affected me... I didn't watch Formula 1 racing for years afterwards. In recent years I have started watching Formula 1 races on TV again... It is very different from when he was there. Of course, this is a different generation. I miss the passion, the desire to win, the heroism that I saw in him every minute he was in the car. Ayrton Senna is a three-time world champion. Others may have more world championship titles, but they will never be as iconic as SENNA.
He was the best... He is still the best!
