McLaren honour 30th anniversary of Senna's first world title with unique car
McLaren has made a one-off track car to honour Ayton Senna's first World Championship which he won 30 years ago. The P1 GTR sports the MP4/4's Marlboro livery in which Senna won the 1988 World Championship.
To continue the honour, the car features Senna's race number [12] on the bonnet, his name on the doors and splitter and the words 30th anniversary.
The Brazilian spent five years at McLaren, leaving the garaging for the final time in 1993 before he moved to Williams.
