Senna began his motorsport career in karting, moved up to
open-wheel racing in 1981, and won the 1983 British Formula Three
Championship. In 1988, he joined Frenchman Alain Prost at
McLaren-Honda. Between them, they won all but one of the 16 Grands
Prix that year, and Senna claimed his first World Championship.
Prost claimed the championship in 1989, and Senna his second and
third championships in 1990 and 1991. In 1992, the Williams-Renault
combination began to dominate Formula One. Senna nonetheless
managed to finish the 1993 season as runner-up, winning five races
and negotiating a move to Williams in 1994. Senna has often been
voted as the best and most influential Formula One driver of all
time in various motorsport polls. He was also acclaimed for his wet
weather performances, such as the 1984 Monaco Grand Prix, the 1985
Portuguese Grand Prix, and the 1993 European Grand Prix. He holds a
record six victories at the Monaco Grand Prix, and is the
fifth-most successful driver of all time in terms of race wins.
Senna courted controversy throughout his career, particularly
during his turbulent rivalry with Prost. This is his incredible
story.
