I thought so, that entire weekend at Imola was covered very well in this movie.

Building the tension of the weekends events leading up to his crash in practice, Senna's apprehension to race Sunday, his uneasiness in his car and then finally his last few quite moments alone in his car before the lights went out.

Erie actually and very impressive they had that footage.

It was mentioned in the movie he didn't smile all weekend. It came across like he was fully aware of what was going to happen. The footage of all the accidents that weekend was brutally raw, the discussion between Senna and the Dr was insightful as well, he told the doc he had to race - he couldn't quit...even though he'd rather just go fishing... I thought I could tell he was sick to his stomach with nerves.... not sure if that was the case but effective story telling obviously.

Well done 3rd act to the story. The sound track including the F1 cars was fantastic. I'll be taking the wife this weekend.

btw I went Monday afternoon and there was a good crowd, lots of non F1 people too. I sat near an 80+yr old couple on one side and a group of guys on an extended lunch from a hot rod shop...
