Ayrton Senna is widely regarded as the best driver ever. Although he has only been World Champion three times (versus four times for Prost and five times for Fangio and Schumacher), he still holds the world record for pole-positions (65), a true example of his extreme style. This illustrated biography looks back to his childhood in Sao Paolo, his first steps in motor racing and his career in F1.Like the man himself, the book delivers comprehensively what fans of F1 really want. The book features several hundred photographs and a dozen car drawings, as well as interviews of key people related to Senna's career.
