Brazilian football club Corinthians unveils Ayrton Senna tribute kit

Brazilian football club Corinthians has unveiled a tribute kit to Ayrton Senna to mark the 30th anniversary of his first Formula One world championship.

The kit has a mixture of homages to the legendary Brazilian, who is considered by many to be the greatest driver of all time. It follows the colours of the iconic black and gold John Player Special livery Lotus carried on its 1985 and 1986 cars when Senna drove for the team.

It has been unveiled 30 years after Senna clinched his first title at the 1988 Japanese Grand Prix at the Suzuka circuit, which hosts the same event this coming weekend.
