17 years ago, a lively face printed in the sports section of the daily newspaper, caputured my attention. The face was that of Ayrton Senna after winning the Donnington 93. Back then, when the internet was still stuff of sci-fi, Ayrton was an unknown personality for lesser humans like me. But that photograph had something. It forced me to dig deep into the article to know more about this guy. And guess what? I was an Ayrton Senna (and formula one) fan by the time I finished reading. Terms like 'lap', 'slipstreaming', 'slicks' were quite new for me, but I surely felt the electricity that he had created that day.
So, 17 years from then and I am still in love with this sport. Not just because it has the speed and thrills, but because this sport gave us Ayrton 'Magic' Senna - The Epitome of Will Power. For me, 1 May, 1994 does not exist. Senna lives... He lives in any driver who drives on the limit. He lives in every fan who sits glued to the TV just to catch a glimpse of wheel banging that might remind them of the long gone Senna-Prost duels. And most importantly, he lives in every human, fight to win the battles of life.

Long Live Ayrton... Please inspire the generations to come...
