A festival dedicated to Ayrton Senna planned in Sao Paulo
Ibirapuera Park in Sao Paulo (Brazil) will resonate with the sound of Formula 1 next Saturday, November 9. A festival will be organized in honor of the national legend, Ayrton Senna.
The three-time Formula 1 world champion will be celebrated through a demonstration of several legendary single-seaters: the Toleman TG184 used during the rainy 1984 Monaco Grand Prix finished in second place, and the Lotus 97T taken to victory in Estoril (Portugal) a year later.
