Senna Motoragnier Biography
Ayrton Senna was born in San Paulo in the year. From the age of 13, the Brazilian began to seriously engage in the picture, and very successfully. After graduating from school, Ayrton entered college with a degree in entrepreneurial business, but threw it in three months, giving preference to the picture. In the year, Senna won the Championship of Picture of the South African Republic.
In the year, Ayrton Senna moved to the UK to participate in European racing championships. Despite the first successes, as well as under the pressure of his family, who wanted to involve him in the family business, Ayrton announced his departure from motorsport and returned to Brazil.
Before leaving, he managed to receive an offer to perform in the formula for 10 thousand pounds. Already at home, in Brazil, Ayrton decided to accept this proposal and again went to the UK, already under the name of Ayrton Senna, since he believed that Silva was a too common Brazilian surname. In the year, Ayrton Senna became the champion of the British Formula 3, although at the end of the season his teammate, Martin Brandl, gave Brazilian a serious fight, and everything decided in the very last race.
The leaders of McLaren, Lotus and Brabham offered the Brazilian the role of the pilot test with a long -term contract and the opportunity to speak later, since they did not have free places for a year. Peter Warr, who at that time led the Lotus team, was ready to provide Senne with the place of the main pilot, but the sponsors insisted on being a British pilot to play for the team, and he decided to leave Nigel Mansell.
Ayrton Senna longed to perform in Formula 1 immediately and on his conditions. The only team that was ready to accept it immediately turned out to be Toleman - a relatively young team with not too big opportunities. However, he managed to show himself already in the year, when, under the pouring rain in Monaco, the Brazilians flew to his first victory in Formula 1 already in the sixth race in his career.
But, unfortunately, this was not destined to come true, and the race was stopped without even reaching the middle. Ayrton had to be content with only the second place in a few seconds from Alena is simple, from whom he played out for more than two seconds in each circle. In his debut season, Ayrton went to the podium twice, and a year later, already as part of Lotus, he won his first victory as a racer of Formula 1.
She fell at the Portugal Grand Prix, where Senna started with a pool position, leaded throughout the distance and showed the best circle, thereby conquering a large helmet. Lotus had a fairly quick technique that allowed to periodically fight for victories and stay in the four of the best pilots according to the results of the championship, but Ayrton needed more.
Therefore, after three seasons in Lotus, he began to look for a place in a stronger team. By the way, his warm relationship with Honda motorists came in handy, who helped him get McLaren. The rivalry of two opposites - the cold -blooded and calculating Alena is simple and hot and hungry to the victories of Ayrton Senna - led to an incredible result. The Duet Senna-Prost won 15 out of 16 races, and the title went to Ayrton Senne.
A year later, the situation repeated. The main struggle for the championship broke out between the McLaren pilots, but this time Alena Skut went to the victory. However, in the year, relations between the two champions were heated to the limit and the head of McLaren, Ron Dennis decided to make a choice in favor of Ayrton Senna, and at the end of the season the Frenchman left the team.
Seasons and years were given to Ayrton Senne relatively easily. The McLaren technique allowed the Brazilian to stably fight for victories and keep rivals at a distance. Having won 6 victories in M and 7 wins in M, Senna became the youngest in history to a three -time world champion. First, Nigel Mansell on a car equipped with an active suspension in one gate won his first championship title and left Formula 1, and in M returning for one season, it was simple to record the fourth title to his asset and also left the King of Motorsport.
McLaren’s pace no longer allowed Senna to regularly win the races, and he fell out of the struggle for the championship for two years. At the end of the year, Ayrton was actively trying to move to Williams, but Alena’s contract with the British team imposed a veto on the possibility of Brazilian transition to Williams. Although Senna, with his own words, was ready to play for the team of Frank Williams even for free.
This was supposed to be a direct road to its fourth title. In the first two races, he started from Poula, but left the distance. At the San Marino Grand Prix, his last race in his life, he also stood on a pole position. At the start, the Brazilian retained leadership, but the race was stopped as a result of an accident at the starting line. Eight fans and a policeman were injured by Jaja Lechto, flying away from the Bolid Jaja.
On the sixth round, the race was resumed, Ayrton headed Peleton. The race was immediately stopped. Two minutes after the accident, Ayrton was removed from the car and the medical team of Formula 1, led by Sid Watkins, provided him with the necessary assistance.After which Ayrton was loaded into a helicopter and sent to a local hospital. A few hours later, his death was announced.
Officially, the cause of the accident is a breakdown of the steering column, which was made of fragile material. As a result of the accident, the right front wheel and the lever of the suspension flew off the kokpita, inflicting a powerful blow to the right side of the helmet of Ayrton. In addition, one of the levers struck his helmet in the area of his right eye and inflicted the deadly fractures of the skull and penetrating the injury of the brain.
Later it turned out that the flag of Austria was discovered in Ayrton's car. The Brazilian planned to raise him on the catwalk to honor the memory of the young Austrian racer Roland Ratzenberger, who died on the eve of the race, during Saturday qualifications.
