Scott Bryan BBC.com Whilst his character's great, all of the other characters are quite one dimensional - shockingly one dimensional. His wife in episode one, all she says in the whole of the first episode is something like, 'I want children' and nothing else. Rated: Not a Must Watch Jan 8, 2025 Full Review Jake Kring-Schreifels TIME Magazine It’s difficult to capture the thrill and danger of Formula 1 and condense it onto the small screen, but Amorim effectively translates the feeling inside the cockpit. Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Carol Midgley The Times (UK) Leone deserves credit for having sufficient presence to hold things together. However, this doesn’t feel like a definitive portrait of the man but an overly long hymn to him that lacks complexity. Rated: 2/5 Dec 17, 2024 Full Review Alistair Lawrence Common Sense Media This landmark documentary takes us inside the world of Formula One motor racing during an era when it seemed as though the whole world was watching. May 27, 2025 Full Review Rohan Naahar The Indian Express Each time any of Senna's wafer-thin characters opens their mouths, you’re likely to be overcome by an intense desire to pump the breaks and make a pit stop, or perhaps rewatch Asif Kapadia’s seminal documentary on the subject. Dec 26, 2024 Full Review Joel Keller Decider If you’re looking for a show that’s got any drama that happens off the track, Senna will probably disappoint. Dec 6, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Mojo P If you are a die hard F1 fan is a must see it pictures beautifuly the life and greatness of AS he is top 5 F1 drivers ever, a gentelman and phylanthropist he was a great man, sadly lost Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/15/25 Full Review Audience Member Reduces a great story to melodrama Badly drawn characters, poorly retold story lines, scenes devoid of magic F1 fans and Senna fans in particular will love this, even though the most ardent will lament the dumbing down and the way that reality is sacrificed for cheesy dramatisation, especially in the set-piece scenes.... Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Ali W I was fully expecting this to be completely over the top/cheesy but although there was the odd bit like that (wouldn't be a drama mini series without it) I enjoyed the watch. It looks really good and it was interesting to see F1 figures of the 80s and 90s dramatised. Especially enjoyed the portrayal of James Hunt and Terry Fullerton. There was some really interesting artistic licence taken but I think it served well to get the sense across of what really happened (the scene in the FIA chamber for example.) It did make me laugh to think ballastre being at Sennas early karting days but it was an interesting way to make the point. I also thought that Alain Prost was pretty fairly portrayed, he is no where near made out to be the villain as much as he is in the documentary. Overall definitely worth a watch, good fun and an interesting "based on a true story" series. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/25 Full Review Joe P Downloaded the show and watched it during a flight, the show is great very entertaining if you are a fan of racing and true stories, Senna was one of the greats in F1, Idol. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/25 Full Review Austin C Senna…. Senna…. Senna!!!
