I bet i will have a tear in my eye, i shed a tear when Top Gear did the review of Senna, especially the bit when it showed you his coffin being unloaded from the aero plane with his helmet on top of his coffin.

No, going with a mate of mine who is a bit of a Senna fan. Has about 40 Ayrton Senna model cars and 1:2 scale replica Senna Helmet.

Tremendous movie, deserves all it's praise. She really enjoyed it too, it would be nigh-on impossible not too! Some incedible in-car footage but the stuf we never see, like driver's briefings and interviews, just amazing seeing how life was back then.

Couldn't help but shed a tear, not at the end but at one of his greatest victories. You all need to see it.

His first win at Interlagos - when his gearbox broke and he drove the last 8 laps in top gear. So knackered he couldn't get out of the car, on so much pain no one could touch him. Watching him trying to lift the trophy when his arms wouldn't work...
