This was the first widely available English language documentary on Senna, filmed before his death in 1994. Note there are two versions of this video, there is this French production, and there is the copy with a different narration on the 2004 2-DVD set with Right to Win, which is a definite must-have, but not for that version of Racing is in my Blood. This is a very personal account by Ayrton Senna himself. That is, they let the story be told through Ayrton’s own words, and it is a very powerful and moving work that shows through to the very humble and kind spirit of Ayrton Senna. All the more fascinating considering how ruthless he appeared on the race track.
