Tomorrow all will be full of Senna’s face and we will remember his history and the legend he was. But we always forget to talk about Roland Ratzenberger, we have to remind that it is his 30 anniversary too.
He was not able to perform that historical races and it is obvious that he is not going to be so well remembered as other drivers are. But I think it is our duty to just dedicate some words for him.
At this point we have a really good documentaries from Roland and I would recommend to every classic F1 fan dedicating some time for watching them. We have to remember the man he was and how devoted he was to motoracing since his childhood. He was not lucky, and at the moment he arrived to the Formula 1 he left us.
At least, we are able to remember Roland by histories and memories that we have found through all these years. And although we have not been able to see his performance in F1, I am sure that everyone reminds him as the man with that charming smile that we lost in that awful weekend for motorsport.❤️

Something I don’t think we talk about enough is the fact that Ayrton’s last meal was with Alain. And to this day Alain is publicly selfish in admitting he was glad it was him Ayrton had lunch with before the crash, and not anyone else.
Like- jesus.

Frogs and cheese incident lore:
Australia - 1990
involved: A.Senna & G.Berger
This takes place during a holiday stay in Australia with Senna, Berger, McLaren boss Ron Dennis and then-wife Lisa.
One evening when Berger went on a run there was this golf course with some “big things jumping around” (frogs/toads) so he decided to prepare a nice friendly surprise for his good friend Senna.
He went to the concierge and gave him 100$ and told the concierge to “bring him some”.
The concierge then proceeded to give Berger a full bag of about 50 frogs (or toads god knows what it was) so Berger asked Lisa Dennis to help him with this little project.
When they had dinner Berger picked up Ayrton’s room key and together with Lisa went to his room and put those bloody frogs everywhere.
The next morning furious Senna confronted Berger about the situation to which Berger replied “Where did you find the snake?”
To this situation Senna responded with buying the most disgusting and strong smelling cheese and stuck it into Berger’s AC unit and turned it on full blast.
