Ayrton Senna in 1/64: Mini GT Brings the Legend to Life

Some racers win trophies. Others change the sport forever. Ayrton Senna wasn’t just fast—he was electric. With unmatched focus, surgical precision, and a deep connection to his car, fans, and country, Senna became more than a driver. He became an icon. And now, thanks to Mini GT’s new 1/64 scale collection, you can own the moments that made him legendary—helmet and all.

Each model in this exclusive lineup captures a race that helped shape Senna’s story, featuring a finely detailed cockpit view of his iconic yellow helmet—the symbol of a champion who raced with soul.

Pre-order at HanzDriven.com, these cars are as meaningful as they are collectible.

Toleman TG184 #19 – 1984 Monaco GP (2nd Place)
Before the championships, there was the Monaco miracle. In his rookie year, Senna drove the unfancied Toleman through torrential rain, slicing past world champions and almost stealing the win. The red flag may have stopped the race—but the world had already seen what was coming.

McLaren MP4/4 #12 – 1988 Japanese GP (Winner)
Suzuka. Lights out. Senna stalls. Then… brilliance. In the most dominant F1 car ever built, he stormed from 14th to 1st, clinching his first world title with a performance that still gives fans goosebumps. The Mini GT version is a must-have for any serious collector—and a reminder of what true comeback spirit looks like.

McLaren MP4/6 #1 – 1991 Japanese GP (2nd Place)
Championship number three. Title already secured, Senna showed respect for his teammate by handing over the win—an act rarely seen in motorsport. The McLaren MP4/6, with Senna’s unmistakable helmet visible through the cockpit, is a model of dominance, strategy, and class.

Lotus 99T #12 – 1987 Monaco GP (Winner)
Senna’s first victory at Monaco came in the unmistakable yellow Camel-liveried Lotus. It was the beginning of his reign as the King of Monaco, where he’d go on to win six times. The 99T is not just about the livery—it’s about legacy.

Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.3-16 #11 – 1984 Nürburgring Race of Champions
Before F1 immortality, Senna beat out world champions in identical cars at the Nürburgring. In a field that included Lauda, Prost, and Rosberg, Senna took the win in a car he’d never raced before. The 190 E might not scream “Formula 1,” but in this context, it is F1 greatness.

Honda NS-X Prototype Midship Sports 1989 – Ayrton Senna
Most don’t know this, but Senna helped develop the NSX. His testing feedback shaped how the car handled at speed—particularly on rough tracks. That connection between man and machine lives on in this prototype version, with his helmet peeking through the glass, just as he tested it decades ago.

McLaren MP4/4 #11 – Alain Prost – 1988 Japanese GP (2nd Place)
For collectors chasing F1 rivalries, this one's special. The MP4/4 wasn’t just dominant—it was home to one of the most intense rivalries in motorsport history. The upcoming release of Alain Prost’s version of the same car Senna drove to his first title adds a new layer to any collection. Having both side by side tells a bigger story—two titans, one team, and a season that shaped the future of F1.

More Than Just a Product. Here’s Why Senna Still Inspires:

Fun Fact 1: Ayrton Senna held the record for most pole positions in F1 for over a decade. He didn’t just race—he qualified to win.

Fun Fact 2: Senna was a deeply spiritual person. Before every race, he often sat in silence inside the car to mentally and emotionally prepare. That ritual focus was part of his edge.

Fun Fact 3: In his very first karting race at age 13, he wore a helmet painted in yellow with green and blue stripes—colors that would become legendary in motorsport.

Fun Fact 4: At the 1992 Monaco Grand Prix, after Nigel Mansell pitted and came out right behind him with fresher tires, Senna held him off for five unforgettable laps. That wasn’t just defending—it was pure racecraft under pressure.

Fun Fact 5: Senna was once quoted saying, “Being second is to be the first of the ones who lose.” His mindset was pure performance.
