Amazing guy. Such a waste. Hearing him talking about his qualifying laps at monaco '88 '89 time. He was in a different world, kind of dream like state that, in his own words scared him! Now that is comitment!

Amazing natural ability. Not sure he was born with it all though! I remember reading about one of the guys that helped him in his early karting days, in an interview for some magazine, he said that originally senna hated the wet, so this guy sent him out on track in the rain with a full tank of fuel, then wouldn't let him return untill it was empty, then sent him out again! Didn't do him much harm!
