holy shit we get it senna died !!!!

the deification of ayrton senna is frankly bizarre. yes, it was the anniversary of his death over two weeks ago. and yet the anniversary of niki's death was just on monday and not a single team said something. not ferrari or mclaren, the teams he raced for. not mercedes, the team he helped to build from the ground. why is senna so unique? is it because he died during a race? he is neither the first or the last driver to do so.

this glorification reminds me of the poppy pins in britain - forced and compulsory. how many drivers on the grid were even alive when senna was racing? i am not denying his impact on the sport, and certainly he was one of the greatest to ever drive, but it is very odd seeing drivers like lando and oscar sport copies of his helmet when neither has ever seen him race.

and it also serves to erase what senna actually did in formula 1 and beyond. he was dirty. he fought his teammates. he dated a 15 year old. he donated millions without saying a word. he was intensely egocentric. he was brave. his precision behind the wheel was extraordinary. he put other drives in a position where they had to either crash out or concede to him. he was unsportsmanlike. he was incredible. he punched eddie irvine. he crashed prost out.

to try and distill ayrton senna into this mystified legend, untouchable and deserving of three straight weeks of tribute while other drivers get nothing does an insane disservice to who he actually was.

"Melbourne made its debut on the F1 race calendar #OnThisDay in 1996 🤩 It was also the day that Michael Schumacher raced in scarlet red for the first time ❤️ Swipe 👈 to see more of Albert Park where Damon Hill took the chequered flag and Martin Brundle walked away unscathed from a dramatic opening lap crash. We can't wait to go back Down Under again for round 3 of the 2024 season on March 22-24 🙃" - march 10, 2024 📷 @.f1 / instagram
