In 1988, a certain Ayrton Senna da Silva won his first Formula 1 World Championship title. He already caused a sensation previously with Toleman and Lotus, so his title in the superior McLaren Honda wasn’t much of a surprise anymore. However, he had to prevail against a strong teammate: Alain Prost. The fact, that those two clashed and crashed many times in the following years, isn’t new to longtime F1 fans. The legendary winning vehicles from this era are admired worldwide until today, if they are to be seen. Most of them are still part of the car collection of McLaren and only rarely shown at exhibitions or car shows.

For one customer these rare sightings were not enough. As he is fortunate enough to own one of only 59 built P1 GTRs, he asked the MSO department (McLaren Special Operations) whether a remodeling in the style of the first world championship car of Ayrton Senna, the MP4\/4, would be possible. Together they not only developed a fitting livery in a three-year process, but also added a few unique attachments to the vehicle, which now differentiate it from the other 58 models. Of course, there was no color alternative to ‘Anniversary White’ and ‘Marlboro Red’, the colors of the then main sponsor of the tobacco industry. Deviating from the 1988 racecar, the P1 GTR shows stickers of today’s tire partner Pirelli and various imprints of the Senna logo.<\/p>\n\n\n
