Did you read the article or are you just reacting to sentiment?

He is correct in that Senna's death precipitated a number of actions that have been beneficial to F1 in terms of car safety.

He is also correct in that Senna's death caused such a stir in the world's media that people who had never considered watching or taking part in motorsport subsequently either watched or took part. (Assuming that one regards that as a good thing. There are many arguments as to whether the huge influx of money and the commercialisation of the sport is good for it.)

Now, if Bernie had stated that Senna's death was so good for the sport that given a choice between preventing it and letting it happen, he would have let it happen, then words could indeed fail you. He didn't, so they shouldn't.
