Former F1 champion Jacques Villeneuve reflects on Ayrton Senna's enduring legacy and unmatched impact on Formula One as the 30th anniversary of Senna's death approaches.
Nearly three decades have passed since the tragic passing of Ayrton Senna , an icon of Formula One racing. As the 30th anniversary of this devastating event draws near, former champion Jacques Villeneuve shares profound reflections on Senna's lasting impact and irreplaceable value to the sport.
"You think business when you think like that which is awful. He was a human being. But the sport lost a huge amount in the value he brought to F1." "He was super talented, super-fast and he probably would have given an amazing fight to other drivers for quite a few years to come because he was so passionate about racing."
"It is difficult to compare eras. It is like trying to compare Fangio with now. You actually didn’t see him racing or know the era. But he has become an almost mythical figure.
