That’s how I feel now, I don’t really care who was to blame back then, I know one thing, that boy watching the races in the middle of the night, that boy singing «Senna Senna», that boy crying because his hero had died was me too. We Brazilians saw one of our own become the greatest F1 driver of all time, carrying our flag, telling everyone that he had all his people in that car, finishing that race in first place.
I, as a child, would have liked it to last forever
I feel sorry for all those who don’t know what it feels like to hear out loud that character named Galvão Bueno say «AYRTON SENNA DO BRASIL, CAMPEÃO MUNDIAL DE FORMULA 1» ("Ayrton Senna of Brazil, Formula One World Champion") and that song that played in the series, played on many of our weekends for a few years, a shame it didn’t last longer. I cried at the end like I cried in ’94, my childhood hero has become a myth, who cares if they didn’t tell the exact truth, I lived to see it, watching the series made me feel the way I felt then, and the series brought back all those happy and sad emotions.
