Senna honored by McLaren in Monaco
Removed from Williams’ FW44 at the start of the season, Ayrton Senna’s logo will once again feature on the grille. The Brazilian legend will indeed be honored by McLaren from Monaco this weekend and for the rest of the Grands Prix this year. On their MCL36, Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo will indeed display the logo of the triple world champion with the English team thanks to a sticker affixed to the base of their halo.
” From the 2022 Monaco Grand Prix, the McLaren MCL36 will feature the Senna logo marking our commitment to celebrating its heritage., underlines Zak Brown, the CEO. I can’t imagine a better race than the Monaco Grand Prix to start recognizing Ayrton’s life. “.
Indeed, the choice of McLaren is not insignificant. On the Rock, Ayrton Senna felt at home. In ten participations in the Monaco Grand Prix, the Brazilian has signed 5 pole positions and above all 6 victories, unheard of in the history of the Monegasque event.
” Having won the Grand Prix six times, more than any other driver, Ayrton proved that his skill and ability behind the wheel of an F1 car could rarely be matched.continues Zak Brown, happy to be able to pay tribute to the former driver of the house. This addition (the logo) to our race cars will be permanent and has been added with the support of the Senna family. It will serve as a constant reminder of Ayrton Senna’s sensational talent for us, as a team, and for all of our fans around the world. Ayrton Senna is, and will forever remain, a McLaren legend. His performances with McLaren, which saw him win three drivers’ titles, made him one of the greatest drivers in Formula 1. “.
