I am too to be honest. I think many people get lost in the fact Senna was a very good driver who had flaws and wasn't actually Jesus Christ. I was lucky enough to see Senna on track and I have seen Hamilton. They have both won 3 WDC's and have driven for McLaren, that is about it.
It does make me cringe when people say 'how can you mention Lewis or any other driver in the same sentence as Senna', like nobody is allowed to be worthy. Unfortunately Senna dying gave birth to a romantic legend for F1 but there are some of us who remember him as a very talented f1 driver who had an attractive personality and ego. Senna was far from the perfect F1 driver however and this is probably something he has in common with most champions. Personally f I was in Hamilton's position I would want people to compare drivers to me, not me to drivers of the past. They have their own legacy..
