Ayrton Senna Story

In the pantheon of motorsport, few names resonate with the same electric intensity as Ayrton Senna. Fiercely competitive and relentless in his pursuit of perfection, Senna built a legacy as one of the greatest drivers in the history of the sport.

His passion for racing began in a kart his father built, powered by an old lawnmower engine. It was 1964 in São Paulo, Brazil, and Senna had just turned 4. At 13 he got his first taste of victory racing professionally. His early race career was a barrage of race wins and championships, and by 1983 he’d garnered the interest of a small team in England, Formula 1 Team Toleman.

His short but pivotal tenure with Toleman led to his move to Team Lotus in 1985, from which erupted a golden era of racing. His exceptional performances in the innovative black and gold Lotus 97T earned him memorable wins like those at the Portuguese Grand Prix when he outdrove his competitors despite awful weather conditions. Or, at the Monaco Grand Prix where he earned the moniker “King of Monaco.”

Senna’s technical prowess was lauded by engineers who claimed his insight into his car’s performance to be remarkably specific and instrumental in the evolution of F1. In ‘87, Senna took the helm of the Lotus 99T, touting an advanced active suspension system that optimized handling and performance. His continued triumphs said it all; he was a legend in the making.

Senna signed with McLaren in 1988, winning his first world championship at the wheel of the McLaren MP4/4. Though Senna’s partnership with McLaren was marked by intense rivalries with other drivers - all was overshadowed by his world title wins.

But then, on May 1st, 1994, tragedy struck. At just 34 years old, Ayrton Senna’s life was taken in a devastating crash. The world mourned, and Formula 1 racing was forever changed. His insatiable perfectionism and daring spirit defined an entire generation of Formula 1.

To this day, Ayrton Senna is considered across the world to be one of the most iconic F1 drivers to have ever lived.
