Reserved some time today to make a post celebrating the Senna’s 50th Birthday. An idol, a hero, all the country today is sad and proud for this beloved son. You may check more details about him, checking the following post fro the formula1blog.com. http://www.formula1blog.com/2010/03/21/ayrton-senna-50th-birthday-memories/
He would have been 50-years old today. There is little doubt in my mind that he would still be influential in F1 but probably more so in the lives of young Brazilian children for whom he took particular interest in. His legacy may have been larger than fate has allowed and his impact on the sport more profound but as we look back on this birthday memory of the great Ayrton Senna da Silva; we recognize the man as profound destiny. Not just his own but many after him.
His foundation, Instituto Ayrton Senna, represents a tangible example of his love of children and particularly the low-income families and while it was established after his death, there is little doubt that he would have established a similar foundation had he lived such was his passion for the cause. His charitable heart and love of God was well known and his personal investment in impoverished Brazil, $400m, was enormous.
