Uncle Ayrton hands out a few pointers

Yesterday at 07:30 AM

Back in the day, during F1's winter break, the late great Ayrton Senna would head back home to Brazil to enjoy some much-needed down time with his family.

The three-time world champion was always happy to share his passion and expertise with the next generation of aspiring young racers.

But at the time, taking aside his 9-year-old nephew Bruno for a private karting lesson was all about ensuring the Senna family's legacy.

Needless to say, a wide-eyed and eager Bruno Senna, who would go on to race in F1 between 2010 and 2012, soaked up every bit of knowledge and guidance from his famous uncle, mentor and role model.

Good times.
