Product Description
"If you think you have a limit, as soon as you touch this limit, something happens, then you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and your experience as well, you can fly very high." - Ayrton Senna
Senna is considered one of F1's greatest drivers of all time.
Winning three Championships during his rich career, claiming incredible victories and stealing the hearts of millions, his memory lives on throughout the entire motorsport community to this day.
This incredibly rare opportunity has arisen for one collector to become the owner of this rare helmet. An authentic reproduction of the one he wore for the 1994 F1 season - his final year in the sport as he tragically lost his life at the San Marino Grand Prix - this helmet is a beautiful tribute to the Brazilian legend.
Signed by Senna himself, this helmet is among the rarest pieces of F1 heritage.
A Memory That Lives On
Senna's story is a heroic one; joining the grid in 1984 and racing for Toleman, Lotus and McLaren, he went on to claim three Titles (with the latter).
Known for his competitive nature and raw driving talent, it became clear than racing very much was in his nature. After claiming three Championships with McLaren, Senna wanted to take on new challenges.
Moving to Williams in 1994, his ambitions for his career with the British team were tragically cut short as Senna would lose his life on 1st May in Imola. The Grand Prix goes down in history as one of the most tragic weekends in sport, with Senna and Ratzenberger both losing their lives at the track over the two days.
30 years on from that fateful weekend and Ayrton Senna remains as legendary as when he was racing. Many young drivers and World Champions have attributed their inspiration and passion to the late Brazilian, with many paying tributes to him through helmet designs over the years.
The 'Senna' name is a symbol of motorsport and is known by all within the community and the wider sporting world. He continues to inspire 30 years on.
