The Brazilian champion’s car returns to pole position, as on May 1, 1994
May 1, 2024
On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the tragic death of Ayrton Senna, the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola was transformed into an open-air set for ‘Ayrton’s night’, a special occasion to celebrate the greatest driver of all times. For the first time in thirty years the Williams F16 of the Brazilian champion has returned to the position in which it found itself on the day it set off on the last lap of the life of the greatest driver in history, on 1 May 1994, when Senna took place in pitch number one of the racetrack, the pole position for the San Marino Grand Prix which was held in Imola. The car seen on the track is the only existing original copy of the car that was destroyed during the accident in which Senna lost his life. The tribute to the Brazilian pilot, to the tune of a famous song by Lucio Dalla, is sung by the actor Stefano Fresi.
