The name Senna will forever be synonymous with Formula 1 because of Ayrton Senna. The three times world champion died after crashing whilst leading the San Marino Grand Prix in 1994 and is a legend of the sport.

But now the Senna name is back in F1. Ayrton's nephew Bruno Senna has just landed a contract with Campos Meta - one of the new teams that will take to the grid next season and will be racing the like of Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton in 2010.

    Odd that Shakespeare came to mind but I am not wholly cynical. Damian Hill didn't do so bad did he? And Graham Hill. Well - nuff said! A great driver. But it was or rather is the young ones of the famous that rankles. A baby just a few days back and were odds being offered said toddler having prowess in the same sporting arena as their (babys) pater? Dah! No pressure then.
    Good luck Bruno but please - drive for yourself - not for so called famous surname.
