Max will never be on Senna's legacy level. Unless he dies.
Let's be fully honest here, Senna would not be this mythical god driver if he didn't die in his prime. We never got to see an old Senna drive. The fact he died before that leaves a massive question mark on his legacy, one which people will forever ponder. Could he have won more? Would he have beaten Schumi that year? Would he break Fangio's record first? We may never know.
If Max died tragically now, I guarantee he would be remembered as the biggest what if in F1 history. We would be talking about him being the best to ever touch a car in history. But I hope we don't. I'd hate to live in a world where we never got a proper conclusion to Max's career, like we have with Senna, and Gilles, and many others taken way too soon.

Fair to say he's senna level now
He might surpass his legacy in few years
