I think it's very disingenuous to say that formula 1 fans were shocked when Senna died. A fans didn't know by then that the sport was extremely dangerous then you're never gonna get it. And it's the fans that are responsible for all the deaths because you people keep paying for it. But never once said it should be safer and made it a demand of the fans to protect the drivers. And everybody loves a crash when they survive.

If you knew the story of the Hill family and the unfortunate plane crash with Graham Hill as the pilot 94-96 was unbelievably tough for Damon Hill personally and profesionally. People now may not think of him that highly but what a test of character he had to go through and he delivered brilliantly

The whole team did

Ayrton senna the best driver.

I have the highest esteem for Damon Hill. His mental strength is unequalled in these circumstances. How he rose to the level he did to become world champion is something that should be told in a proper heroic Hollywood production.

I will never forget that day. I knew he was gone in the aftermath of the coverage. His body twitched before his head rolled and I knew he was gone. It was truly heartbreaking cos Ayrton was my hero.

So why would Hill be so emotional about Senna specifically? The only relevant story that's consistently never told any more about Williams and 1994 is about how the team and its drivers gave it all to avoid any accountability about Senna's death. Coulthard made the claim that the steering wheel movement was absolutely normal, even using a ridiculous video where the steering column was supposedly so flexible that the wheel could deflect for ten centimeters or more with no cause for concern. Hill made his infamous "I don't know" testimony, where he couldn't remember any modifications about the car, whether it had power steering, or even if Senna complained about the car, but he somehow had left a briefing convinced - of course, he couldn't remember exactly why - that Senna must have left the track for reasons other than his steering column braking: namely, driver error. I would suppose that's a greater indication about how much Hill cared than the fact that he and his team were happy that they managed to turn around their fortunes and win in Spain. The ones who took a stand like decent persons and deserve to be remembered for that where Pierluigi Martini, who maintained that Senna wouldn't have gone off at Tamburello without a mechanical fault, and Michele Alboreto, who was especially annoyed at the way this was being handled and said that Senna deserved at least not to be blamed for his own death.

SENNA LEGEND FOREVER 1994-2024 ÍMOLA.

If Ayrton Senna never raced for that bloody team he would still be alive today. The car was a bloody death trap. And Williams to this day should have been bought to justice over the great mans death.

All 4 of my kids including my two sons were already born or I would have named one of my sons Ayrton. I named my dog Ayrton. Countless people would say oh that’s such an unusual name for a dog and I would lovingly tell them that he’s named after the late great Ayrton Senna.

Well told story and a wonderful tribute to both Hills. This touched me personally as I had the great pleasure of shaking Graham's hand as he worked the crowd after being presented his trophy by the Prince in '63. Still display the race poster un-stapled off a telephone pole for my by my dad. Sat front row center behind hay bales on the Gasworks hairpin. Ah; the great old days!

I have all the time in the wolrd for Damon Hill - a criminally underrated driver, and seems and absolute sweetheart of a bloke too. It's ironic that I now live not too far from where Damon Hill went to school and where his father was tragically killed in an aircrash, add to that I rented a room from a former classmate too.

If only Senna had listened to Dr Sid Watkins who said to Senna “what else do you need to do? You’ve been world champion three times. You are obviously the quickest driver. Give it up and let’s go fishing”. Senna replied: “Sid, there are certain things over which we have no control. I cannot quit, I have to go on.” They were the last words he spoke to the Englishman.

I have often wished I had had access to Formula 1 way earlier in life. But I'm glad I wasn't yet a fan when this happened. Selfishly, I'm glad I missed the horror of that weekend.

Willem Toet who was the head of aerodynamics at the time in Benetton, confirmed in an interview in recent years that the B194 did indeed use a Launch control system as well as traction control. Which explains why Schumacher usually had good starts. Just look at 14:12 the Benettons are the first to move in the entire grid

I will never forget that May 1st. I was in Brazil at the time, I turned on the TV the moment the accident happened.

I was 14 when Ayrton was killed at imola in 1994, I watched that race and I have never forgotten the moment when he smashed into the wall at the Tamburello corner, it was shocking! I remember seeing the photos of Ayrton's smashed Williams in the paper the next day and noticed there was a patch of blood next to the wrecked car and I felt a great emptiness inside despite not reading the article that explained Ayrton was dead. I believe he would have been better if he had joined Ferrari but it wasn't to be. I'm glad people still have a lot of good things to say about Ayrton but I remember Damon Hill saying that he believed Ayrton had crashed due to a mistake he had made himself which I thought was very judgemental because it was clear there was something wrong with the car. I don't think the real cause of the accident will ever be revealed but there was a lot of speculation as to what the cause was. Rip Ayrton. People will never stop missing you and neither will I ❤❤❤
