This is more than just an account of the great man and his career, you sit through the highs and lows, occasionally shaking your head and sometimes chuckling to yourself.

Mr Hilton has set out to paint as vivid and truthful portrait as possible, it doesn't simply gloss over the moments of madness but offers an insight into why and how Senna reacts the way he did, sometimes the reading is a bit uncomfortable but i guess that Senna was just living and reacting in another dimension to us mortals!

That's what makes this book so good, it's a 'warts and all' acount which seems to bring you closer. I'd highly recommend this to any formula 1 fan or anyone interested in sport. The sheer will to win and steely resolve of Senna will amaze you.
