Sir,

With regard to the comments by Ayrton Senna regarding his 6 month suspended ban, I feel that further action should be taken against him.

He has been found guilty of dangerous driving and for him to state “I will drive here (in Australia) the way I’ve driven all my life,” can only be taken as a show of total contempt for the rules and regulations of Formula One and a blatant disregard for the safety of all other drivers.

The 6 month suspended ban will hardly have any effect on Senna as it will only cover the Austrlian race and the first two races of next season. It would have been better to ban him from Australia.
