Senna
"And suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension."
senna to me was single-handedly the best driver there ever was- or ever will be. i've spent hours watching his onboards in awe at the speed, the control, the confidence. his presence is like no other driver and the raw talent he had gave him immense presence on the track. there's this aura to him that i genuinely cannot explain, and there are no words that could articulate his aptitude that felt so insane to watch. if i had a genie in a bottle or a time machine, his peak in formula one would be the first thing that would come to mind. RIP a true racing legend, this man inspires me like no other.
