1988

This iconic racing suit is from Ayrton Senna’s first Formula 1 championship season with McLaren Honda in 1988. It is hardly worn, if at all, and is thought to have possibly been used for promotional purposes. During that incredible year, Senna rewrote the record books en route to his first of three World Championships. His eight wins beat the record of seven held by Jim Clark (1963) and teammate Alain Prost (1984). His 13 pole positions also handily beat the nine by Nelson Piquet (1984).
