Google ran a tribute to Ayrton Senna through a 'Doodle' logo to commemorate what would have been his birthday on March 21.

The 2014 season is the 20th since the death of Senna, considered by many to be one of the greatest drivers in the history of the sport, at Imola on May 1, 1994. Had he survived, Senna would have turned 54 this year.

The Doodle appeared on the Brazilian version of the site on the morning of March 21. Google is famous for using its logo, known as 'Doodles', to commemorate holidays, birthdays of famous peoples, and other famous or popular events.
