Poll - Is Williams right to "move on" from Senna?

Sam Hall Tuesday 15 February 2022 17:30

Williams has confirmed it will run for the first time since 1995 without a tribute to three-time world champion Ayrton Senna.

Since the Brazilian's death in a Williams car at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, the team has paid tribute to its former driver on each of its new entries.

But this will no longer be the case with team principal and CEO Jost Capito confirming at the launch of the FW44 on Tuesday that "it is time for the team to move on".

Although Williams will no longer run the 'Senna S' on its cars, the team will continue to remember its former driver through a dedicated space in its museum as well as through increased efforts working with the Ayrton Senna Foundation.

The question is a simple one. Is Williams right to stop displaying a tribute to Ayrton Senna on its cars?
