The Brazilian tragically lost his life 30 years ago at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, with many emotional tributes being made to the three-time champion and fellow driver Roland Ratzenberger, who too died on that weekend.

The race in Monaco will come a week after that weekend in Imola and McLaren will run a vibrant yellow, green and blue livery for the Grand Prix, taking inspiration from Senna’s iconic race helmet to celebrate his ‘incredible racing legacy.’

The team chose the prestigious street circuit to reveal their one-off design as it is one of Senna’s most successful tracks, winning six times at the Principality, including five wins in a row from 1989 to 1993.

McLaren will also sport Senna-inspired team kit for the weekend, with drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri wearing bespoke overalls.

And the former took to social media to tease fans of another change to his race overalls; a Senna-inspired helmet.

Posting on his official X account, Norris tweeted to his followers: “Done a special tribute helmet too,” followed by the Brazilian flag emoji.

The Brit did not reveal any pictures of his new helmet design, leaving fans in suspense as they await to see what it will look like heading into the race weekend.
