Catalogue Note
With a Hublot International Warranty Card and a presentation box with outer packaging.
Ayrton Senna (1960-1994) is the third most successful Formula One driver of all time but by many, including today’s elite drivers, he is considered to be the greatest Formula One racing driver to have lived. A sometimes controversial figure and never a keen political player, he could be as outspoken off the circuit as he was mesmerizing on it. His feud with Alain Prost on the track combined with daredevil driving on it drove television viewing figures for F1 to record highs. One of the key activists in establishing increased driver safety, he himself died at Tambruello corner while leading the 1994 San Marino Grand P♓rix, the tragic event watched live 300 million people.
