I know he's still a huge idol in Brazil, and every year around the time of his death there are remembrances etc. He was one of the best drivers ever, and a very colourful person!
He was/is in Australia as well. He 'made' our Grand Prix when Adelaide used to stage it. There is a memorial plaque on part of the track here in Adelaide. There will never be a better F1 driver than him.
