Went to see it last night in Stirling(showing for one day only!!!!!) with my kids and my cousin. Fabulous and very emotional in so many ways
 
Went to see it with Ally, last weekend I think it was and loved it. Just shows you what was happening behind the scenes that the BBC didn't capture at the time, though implied as it may have been.

I'll admit I was never a fan of Senna when watching F1 in the 80's and 90's, always followed Mansell even though he was fairly dull outside of the cockpit simply because he was the underdog and I always liked the way he drove and could often take it to Ayrton.

Senna, I felt was rather dominant, especially in quali and in sorted McLaren. However, if I were to view him as I view drivers these days, my thoughts would've changed. I never really got the full story about what had happened between Senna and Prost in the '89 Suzuka race - really showed how truly bureaucratic and inconsistent the way the sport was run at the time as well as the way Prost was out of the car.

And that Martin Donnelly crash...wow...true miracle he survived.

Anyone who gets a chance, basically go and see it. Even if you're not really a fan of F1, it's well worth a watch :)
