内容説明
Millions of people around the world watched in horror on that fateful day in Imola at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix when Ayrton Senna's car careered off the track at 190mph. The greatest driver in Formula One history was dead. In this classic sports book, reissued to tie-in with a new Working Title documentary film about Senna, Richard Williams explores the complex Brazilian who was a hero in his own country and an icon to everyone who loved not just motor-racing but sport itself. In his drive to win and his desire always to test himself to the limit, Senna embodied all that is best and most thrilling in sport.

２００ページ余のペーパーバック。本書は数あるセナ本、というかモーターレーシング本のベスト、と断言させて頂きます。
冒頭の印象的な葬儀の描写。"Valeu Senna"。Farewellです。カート時代、Ｆ３時代、そしてトールマン、ロータス、マクラーレンへ。モナコ予選でのトンネルビジョンから、"But I am Senna"まで。’９４イモラに至るまでのストーリイがＲウィリアムズの印象的な筆致で紡がれます。本書は９５年初出時バージョンに裁判時のＤヒルの証言など加筆したアップデイト版。なのですが小生は永久保存版としてハードカバー版も通販で購入。
何回も読み返したくなる傑作です。

Ayrton's death revisited
2005/8/29
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
I was a big fan of Ayrton Senna at the time of his tragic death and remember clearly the events during the race weekend. Reading Richard Williams account of how things unfolded brought back all the emotions of that time. Especially good was the chapter describing his funeral, for a couple of reasons. Firstly he conveyed just how much Brazil loved their man and I was able to fully empathise with them on their loss. Secondly he provided details which anyone outside of Brazil, such as myself, probably did not know. I found myself sobbing again with the grief as if it had only just happened. The rest of the book skims over Ayrton's career and you'd get a better idea of who the man was and be awestruck by his achievements if you read Christopher Hilton's book The Hard Edge of Genius. The account of the accident itself and the ensuing legal action is enlightening and brings together information previously scattered about in newspapers and periodicals, putting it together in a logical timeline. Overall a good read but it doesn't get 5 stars because I felt there was something a little lacking, substance-wise.

I must confess: the first time I heard about Senna was when I saw Asif Kapadia's film. I've never been interested in motor racing, in fact in any kind of racing, generally speaking I'm not into sports. I went to see the film just because it was presented as a documentary and I loved it. Brilliant. I was totally fascinated by Senna's complex personality, his charisma. I saw the film several times, then I started to buy books and read about him and his absolute passion for formula 1. I think Senna was a gift to Formula 1 taking into consideration that even now, 17 years after his death, his personality is capable of making new fans. And this is good for all the drivers of that era, otherwise they are almost forgotten or unknown (to those who are not formula 1 fans). I would've never known that Alain Prost,G. Berger, Ron Dennis,and so many more ever existed if I hadn't have the wonderful opportunity to watch the film and see the real Senna in action. I am so happy that his life never became a biopic made in Hollywood with an actor in Senna's role. I loved the book written by Richard Williams. First I read another book and I was kind of disappointed although it contained lot of information. I didn't like the style though and I was disappointed thinking that Ayrton really deserves much better writing. The way Asif Kapadia made such a compelling film, Richard Williams accomplished in the book. I read in two days and I loved it. I highly recommend it.
