If you have Netflix their showing a 6 part series
about Senna the end of November. Should be good

One needs to be made of Gilles V. I watched a short vid on YouTube about
him. One of the big losses to F1

There's a great one, Villeneuve v Peroni

Does justice to both racers and their families.

Don't have Netflix,    just as well I'm not a Senna fan.

Now if they made a series on Prost I'd have to get Netflix.

Dare, you're a bad, bad man. 

I can't afford Netflix the new Labour government in Britain has stopped us pensioners £300 winter fuel top up payment - the B7st3rds! 

So there's a freeze on frivolity to save my nuts from freezing.

I haven't watched it yet but I need to before our new regime takes over. On the bright side we'll have $1 gas again, and lower food and utility bills. Yeah right

I've watched three episodes so far.

Each episode focuses on a different stage of his career.  The first one is about him becoming a racer, dealing with his family and xenophobia.  The second one is about winning the F3 title and seeing him enter F1 (interesting to see Brundle as an antagonist, though he's not portrayed negatively).  Third episode is about his F1 career gaining traction with McLaren.

The show is filmed in Portuguese, and dubbed into English.  The acting and voice acting is good for what it is.  Any important figures are identified when they first come on screen.  Most of casting choices are solid and help feel like we're watching a documentary, not just a recreation.  The races are a combination of staged races, archived footage and some computer generated scenes.  It's a little jarring to see the different sources combined.  I do feel like the second episode really captures what it's like for the drivers to get into 'race mode'.  The racing itself is nowhere near as good as Ford v Ferrari, but I think it's a little better than Rush in terms of getting the 'feel', but the 'action' in Rush is more exciting.

Finally got around to watching and thought it was pretty good.
Even if your not a Senna fan [JohnS] I think you'd still enjoy it.
I don't know how factual some of it is but it gave me a new outlook
on Senna, I too wasn't a big Senna fan

The series showed Jean-Marie Balestre making rules that
favored Prost and one penalty cost Senna a WDC. Wonder if
that was true
