To commemorate this tribute James May and the Top Gear crew went behind-the-scenes at the McLaren Technology Centre to catch up with some of the people closest to Senna and prepare this special video piece for Top Gear Festival Sydney fans.
Racing driver and nephew of Ayrton, Bruno Senna, and former McLaren Chief Mechanic Neil Trundle share their insight into the legend’s life and how it feels to send the renowned MP4/4 back down under for the 2014 Festival.

Craig Lowndes to take on Jeremy Clarkson in Ashes of football, on wheels

THE Ashes may be back safe in Australian hands, but come March another equally fierce rivalry with the Old Dart begins.
And Australia has recruited a star quick of another kind in the form of three-time V8 champion Craig Lowndes.
The V8 Supercar's "best and fairest" will join Aussie duo Shane Jacobson and Steve Pizzati to take on BBC hosts Jeremy Clarkson, James May and the Stig in the Ashes Special of Car Football.
Playing soccer while driving three-wheel Reliant Robin cars is just one of the many "stupid challenges'' Lowndes will take part in as he joins his fellow panellists to host the highly anticipated Top Gear Festival Sydney in March.

"I've always been a big fan of Top Gear,'' Lowndes said.
"I've had a sneak peek at the schedule for 2014 and it looks great, it'll be a lot of fun.''
Steve Pizzati, left, with Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond, will also take on Blighty.
The event will be on the weekend of March 8 and 9 at Sydney Motorsport Park, Eastern Creek.
