Thanks for letting us know, Gary :)

Not one for the teary eyed :(

Thanks, I have the DVD but I have only watched it 47 times so far. Thoroughly recommended viewing. I watched every one of his 161 Grands Prix, pure magic.
No one has come close to Senna's skills in the wet since.

Fantastic, I saw it when it came out in the movies.

Very sad.

I watched it last night. Although I was a Alain Prost fan back in the day, I found it very interesting and moving. Definitely not your average bloke Ayrton Senna.

Good documentary. It's nice to see that he and Alain Prost settled their differences when Prost retired and that Prost is now a director of Senna's charity.

[EricB]

Yes. Prost was a pall bearer at Senna's funeral.
