Memories of Senna flood back as McLaren fire up their championship-winning machine for the first time in over twenty years.
In 1991 Ayrton Senna took seven GP victories to win the Formula 1 World Championship whilst driving the McLaren MP4/6. In that year both he and team mate Gerhard Berger campaigned the chassis, which had been outfitted with Honda’s screaming 3.5L V12.
In this video, McLaren fire up an example of the MP4/6 for the first time in more than 20 years. Time has not robbed the V12 engine of it’s bark by even the slightest fraction.
