Ayrton Senna was a major influence on Hamilton's driving style. "I think it's partly because I watched when I was young and I thought 'this is how I want to drive when I get the opportunity' and I went out there and tried it on the kart track. My whole approach to racing has developed from there". He has been compared to Senna in raw speed. In 2010, Hamilton drove Ayrton Senna's original title winning McLaren MP4/4 as part of a tribute documentary by the BBC motoring show, "Top Gear". In the documentary, Hamilton, along with fellow racing drivers, name Senna as the number one driver ever.
