Great scans TT....I have the pleasure of being born in the same country of this man, who simply was the best driver in the world, in a time where what really mattered were the driver and how well he could drive, not the electronic elements in F1 cars today...
BTW, did u know that Senna bought an F40, however he never got it until the President re-allowed imported cars back in brazil...when it arrived, he never saw it..today it is with his brother...
The Senna family own Audi here in Brazil...so they are very powerful, and most of the extra money is donated to the 'Ayrton Senna Institute'...

Yep i believe he did die before...since he lived in monaco he never got the chance to come to brazil...in fact, i think the car arrived before he died, and his brother took it instead of selling it...
okay whats the Ayrton Senna Institute
|
its a charity institue that his sister began that helps poor little kids...quite a beautiful gesture...
