Sebastian Vettel will be present at Imola during Emilia Romagna GP where he will drive Ayrton Senna’s McLaren F1 car.

As a tribute to Senna on his 30th death anniversary, four-time F1 champion Vettel will drive the Brazilian’s McLaren MP4/8 machine on Sunday of the Emilia Romagna GP weekend at Imola. The German announced it on the day of 30th anniversary i.e May 1.

Vettel has been using #FOREVERSENNA tag for some weeks now, where he has even launched a collection to support the Senna Foundation. Here: https://shop.sebastianvettel.de/en

The MP4/8 was driven by Senna during the 1993 season where the team ran two different versions – one was Ford HBE7 while the other was an upgrade to Ford HBE8. The Brazilian won five races to finish second in the championship to Alain Prost.
