Despite his death at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, Ayrton Senna’s legend still lives on strong in Formula 1. There have been many books written about him, but the one I have enjoyed the most for the way it both explored the man and career, and the impact of his tragic passing, is this one.
Richard Williams is a fantastic writer and he captures brilliantly just why Senna had this aura – which seems to get bigger with every passing year.
From Jonathan's list on Formula 1 that get you closer to its greatest legends.
