A unique car in honor of Ayrton Senna will be on display at the F1 Emilia Romagna GP in Imola.
McLaren’s former show car was painted by French street artist Gisber as part of an art project called “Senna Now.”
One side of the car consists of three iconic colorings driven by Ayrton Senna: Lotus (Black & Gold), McLaren (Marlboro) and Williams (Rothmans).
On the other side, there’s a wortwork by Jissbar inspired by everything that F1 legend Ayrton Senna symbolizes.
The design is the idea of Matteo Machiavelli, an Italian fashion designer who was a big fan of Ayrton Senna as a kid.
“I spent my childhood following the race and the” magic “of my hero,” said Matteo Machiavelli.
“I’m inspired by his lifestyle and his teachings. It’s still with me when I’m old.”
“Thanks to my family friend Angelo Orsi, I was able to take a lot of pictures with Ailton. Today they are part of my family’s books and one of my personal history. It’s a club and it’s memorable to me. “
“Ayrton Senna’s charisma, his personality, all the challenges he faced, and his humanity have inspired me and many people so much. What he conveys. I began to imagine how to create something that could centralize and bring to light some aspects of the special message, challenges, creativity, and people and interpersonalities. “
This car was donated by Italian collector Genreka Tramonti and will be exhibited at the Ayrton Senna Museum at the F1 Emilia Romagna GP.
It will also be on display at the F1 Races in Miami and Monaco, as well as at art events in Venice and Miami later this year.
The car will then be auctioned and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Ayrton Senna Foundation.
In addition to cars, Jisbar also creates a special Senna Now NFT collection. The collection will be created in three stages over the weekend of Imola, Miami and Monaco F1.
