EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the intensity of the Townsend Thoresen Formula Ford 1600 Championship at Brands Hatch in England on September 29,1981 is beautifully captured. The focus of the image lies on three remarkable individuals who left an indelible mark on that historic day. At the center stands Rick Morris from Great Britain, his victorious smile radiating pure joy as he holds up his trophy. To his right is Ayrton Senna da Silva, a Brazilian racing prodigy who may have finished second in this race but emerged as the ultimate series champion in what would be his final FF1600 appearance. Senna's face reflects a mix of disappointment and pride, knowing that he had achieved greatness despite narrowly missing out on first place. Completing this trio is Alfonso Toledano from Mexico, Senna's trusted teammate. Their camaraderie shines through their shared podium moment, with Toledano offering congratulations to both Morris and Senna for their outstanding performances. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also symbolizes the spirit of competition and friendship within motorsport. It serves as a poignant reminder of how even in defeat, champions like Ayrton Senna can rise above adversity to claim victory overall.
