Ayrton Senna’s Williams F16 back on track for the first time in Imola

The car is the only original existing copy of the single-seater that was destroyed in the accident

On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the tragic death of Ayrton Senna, the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola was transformed into an open-air set for ‘Ayrton’s Night’, a special occasion to celebrate the greatest driver of all times.
For the first time in thirty years, the Brazilian champion’s Williams F16 is back in the position it was in the day it set off on the last lap of the life of the greatest driver in history, on 1 May 1994, when Senna he took his place in pitch number one on the racetrack, the pole position for the San Marino Grand Prix which was held in Imola. The car seen on the track is the only existing original copy of the car that was destroyed during the accident in which Senna lost his life. The tribute to the Brazilian pilot, to the tune of a famous song by Lucio Dalla, is sung by the actor Stefano Fresi.
The occasion was the rehearsal of the monologue “Fresi tells Senna” on the life of Ayrton Senna taken from the book “Losing Senna” by the director and writer Giorgio J. Squarcia which took place on the evening of April 30th in Imola.
