It takes courage to drive such a quick machine and push it to the limits. One champion who was known for his killer instinct on the track left Joe Rogan absolutely speechless.

Talking about Brazil in one of his podcasts, Joe Rogan moved to the subject of Ayrton Senna and his documentary that was released back in 2010. He further discusses how Ayrton Senna was one of the best racing drivers to exist.

Joe Rogan said, “That documentary shows you like what fine line exists between being the very best and someone who dies in a crash.”

“They’re riding this fu*king razor edge of performance and Ayrton Senna was famous for having these spectacular instincts, but ultimately died in a crash.”
