In 1993, at Donington Park, one of the best Formula 1 drivers of all time, Ayrton Senna, drove his perfect course, 1:18.029. 31 years later, his nephew Bruno driving a McLaren Senna set a new fastest lap time, for production cars, on this track with 1:30.5.
It was a big moment in Formula 1 history, and Senna not only took the win, but set the record lap time. At that time he was driving a McLaren MP4/8 and from the fifth starting position, he reached the first place in the first lap. He decided to show his best. Driving like never before, he managed to overtake all his rivals. He crossed the finish line with a lead of 1 minute and 23 seconds, outpacing all but the runner-up for the entire lap.
The McLaren Senna was produced between 2018 and 2019. It is powered by a 4.0-L twin-turbo V8 engine with 800 hp (596 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. This 1,198 kg (2,641lbs) heavy car reaches 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.8 seconds with a top speed of 335 km/h (208 mph). It is equipped with a carbon Monocage III chassis and body panels.
