Formula 1 Grid Talk Episode 30: Ayrton Senna Special

Welcome to Episode 30 of Formula 1 Grid Talk, hosted by George Howson! In this episode joining George we have F1 expert Alex Booth, McLaren superfan Owen Davies, and master of engineering Jack Watson. Whether you believe he’s the greatest Formula 1 driver of all-time or not, there is no denying the impact Ayrton Senna has, and continues to have, on the world of motorsport. Today we try to do justice to the Brazilian’s incredible career. In This Episode When Ayrton Senna was tragically taken from the world on the 1st of May 1994 at the San Marino Grand Prix at Imola, the world lost arguably the greatest driver to ever turn a wheel in a Formula 1 car, in what was the blackest day for Grand Prix racing. Today we look back at the career of the three-time World Champion, in what would have been his sixtieth year.
