I was watching live as Ayrton and Prost took each other out in Japan. I was watching live as Ayrton tore up his home GP in the rain and won it for the first time. I was watching live as Ayrton crashed on May 1st.

Bruno – I wish you the best of luck. I am sure the expectations and the pressures are there, if only in your subconscious. You manage it well, and I have respect.

I wish you well, and thank you for taking the risk.

F1 is a walrus slipping aimlessly into boredom. Run by a dwarf out of touch with the world. Drivers as boring as can possibly be. Even Schu can't drag this sucker up for air. And a guy who has impressed nobody except himself is going to fire the sleeping sport up?Compared to his Uncle, a thrilling driver, this Senna will do nothing. Maybe Bernie should stick Kim Il Duh into a seat. He'd make it comical.

The real question is can Senna be as good as his Late Great Uncle? and why put him in the team that practically killed his uncle? OMG what happened to F1?

This guy shares the absolute magnetic personality coupled to total humility and modesty that made his uncle so charismatic. But one must never forget that he only started racing cars at age 20! After his uncles accident his family did not allow it. The skill he's shown with a 10 year deficit in experience to all other drivers on the grid is amazing. This guy is the real deal.

Not only Senna goes to Williams but he does so the year Sir Frank's team reunites with Renault ; Bruno will then indeed drive a Williams-Renault, a car that was fateful to his uncle. And moreover, last year's Williams was sporting a livery quite similar to the 1994 one...That part may change this season though.

Ayrton's nephew seems to follow his illustrious uncle's destiny but in accelerated motion. Bruno has already driven for Lotus-Renault, the name of the team where the Great Senna obtained his first victories in the mid 80's ; a team that was formerly known as Renault but also Benetton and before that it was initially Toleman, a stable that saw a young promising Brazilian make his first steps in F1 back in 1984...

So what's next ? Hopefully, the current Senna won't follow his predecessor in every footsteps but who knows, if he settles in the sport he might drive for Mc Laren-Honda one day. Right now, we can just wish him good luck and that the names of Senna and Williams-Renault can fulfil this unfinished job they once had.

This is all game used to make glory for some driver. I think we must to find WHAT determines champion and not WHO. Senna has legacy to all world and we must to find HOW he is become so good so that until now he is know as real chamption. I think that the nephew can become real champion also if he find WHAT makes champion. Also, new F1 rules make new questions and challlenges. Go Senna go!

@ João Henrique

Exactly!! Just look at Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kyle Petty for examples.
