Ayrton Senna da Silva (born 21st of March 1960 in São Paulo; died 1st of May 1994 in Bologna) was a Brazilian race car driver. From 1984 until his death he participated in Formula 1. He won the World Championship title three times. At the Grand Prix of San Marino in 1994 he passed away after a fatal race accident.
Senna raced in 161 Formula 1 Grand Prix's for the teams such as Lotus, McLaren and Williams. He achieved 41 victories, 65 pole positions as well as 19 fastest laps; his greatest success came with McLaren-Honda.In the public he was well known for his intense rivalry with the French driver Alain Prost. In total they battled for 4 World Championships. His driving skills, especially during rain, earned him the nick name “The Magic”.
In April of 2004 a 77 man jury, consisting of Formula 1 drivers, engineers, journalists and team heads, voted Senna as the fastest Formula 1 driver in history. In December of 2006 and 2009 the vote among experts was renewed and Senna defended the first place successfully. Those experts acknowledged and remarked that it is rather difficult to compare the different eras of Formula 1. ©minichamps.de
