Senna was a great driver but I would put him 2nd below Schumi, One could have argued that he could have won many more titles if the sad incident didn happen, but one cant deny that he got many sympathy votes due to his death

please understand senna's greatness cannot be measured by no. of race wins or title wins which are mere statistics and does not necessarily reflect the true state of greatness. schumi had more wins, true but if you make an qualitative analysis based on the quality of other competitors,cars available etc.Senna was more dominant and it was very apparent. Its something like Viv.Richards in cricket who may not have great statistics to support his claim but was most dominant batsman of his era (u can also take malcom marshal in bowling who may not be highest wicket taker but was a bowler who dominated great batsman of his era).
