Nuff said this video will show why it is that most racing enthusiasts now decide not to watch the parade that is Formula one today. Ayrton's career is legendary even if his life was cut short. This man's passion for the sport of racing will forever live on in my mind, he was and forever will be my hero.

Remeber one thing in the final races of his life......

Williams wasn't on pole for those 3 races........Senna was.

I forgot who quote that when I remember I will edit this message

Video has some footage of Senna's early go-cart years, interviews with mechanics, and nice 80's and early '90s Formula 1 images. Not to speak about Senna himself, in some almost intimate interviews. Great. Would be better if brought more go-cart and formula Ford images... But still great, a must for any car racing fan, Formula 1 fan or not, Ayrton Senna da Silva supporter or not. Watch this video and realize why there is so much writen, said and discussed about this genious. It doesn't show the dark side of Senna (victory at any price), but still a must. And it makes current F1 starts look so... insipid.

This was the first widely available English language documentary on Senna, filmed before his death in 1994. Note there are two versions of this video, there is this French production, and there is the copy with a different narration on the 2004 2-DVD set with Right to Win, which is a definite must-have, but not for that version of Racing is in my Blood.

I prefer the narration and soundtrack on this version, it's warmer and more emotional. I have this on VHS and as far as i know, this version has not been made in a DVD version.

This is a very personal account by Ayrton Senna himself. That is, they let the story be told through Ayrton's own words, and it is a very powerful and moving work that shows through to the very humble and kind spirit of Ayrton Senna. All the more fascinating considering how ruthless he appeared on the race track.

Great production, with an in-depth interview with Senna providing awesome insight on how he was able to establish his personality on the track. Would have loved more racing clips (e.g wet Donington race).

This video does include Senna's principles of racing, not only on the racetrack, but at home in his beloved Brazil. My approach to this Video is similar to my feelings through Ayrton's career:an unfinished masterpiece.

It has on the other hand great footage of racing incidents, including a Pole earning full onboard lap from Senna's car in Monaco¡¡¡

It avoids to show the darkest moment of the late champion: his crash with Prost's Ferrari in 1990 not to talk of the 1993 season that many of us regard as his best season ever.

Made before his death, this revealing video includes interviews with Ayrton in Brazil, where he carefully talks about his philosophy as a racing driver. Some intense racing clips aswell. This convinces you that he was the most amazing racer ever and it makes you feel sad about his premature death. Reccomended. END

One of the best videos of a great race driver.From his child hood to winning his 3 F-1 world championships.I cant wait for his other documentary scheduled to be released on dvd.

This video really captures the life of Ayrton Senna and is a must have for all die hard Senna fans. It captures his early racing life and his love for Brazil including the most amazing drives with which Ayrton Senna touched Us all forever. His racing can never be forgottena nd Formual One can never be the same without him.

This video was produced before the tragic death of Ayrton Senna. It covers his career from childhood to triple-F1 champion and lends much insight into the man and the legend. Hear Ayrton discuss the realites of Formula One and his beliefs and philosophy on life. An excellent video but one which cannot be viewed without sadness at the passing of this great man. END
