Formula One drivers have run and cycled around the track at Imola to mark 30 years since three-time champion Ayrton Senna was killed in a crash at the 1994 race there. Senna was a childhood hero to many, including seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton who was nine in 1994.

Formula One drivers run as they pay tribute to the late Formula One Brazilian driver Ayrton Senna at the Tamburello turn, at the Dino and Enzo Ferrari racetrack, in Imola, Italy, Thursday, April 16, 2024. The three-time F1 world champion died in a crash at the Imola race track in San Marino. Formula One drivers pay tribute to the late Formula One Brazilian driver Ayrton Senna at the Tamburello turn, at the Dino and Enzo Ferrari racetrack, in Imola, Italy, Thursday, April 16, 2024.

Drivers wore shirts in Senna’s helmet colors of yellow with blue and green stripes as they gathered around a memorial at the Tamburello corner where he died. The McLaren driver said Thursday he didn’t sleep the night after the Miami race as he partied with the team and friends. He then headed off to spend two days playing golf at Augusta National, home of the Masters.

“I think we’re still too far behind,” he said. “But we’re not a mile away. We’re talking one or two tenths a lap at this point between being ahead in qualifying and being able to stay ahead in the race, versus being behind and just not having what it takes.”Expectations are always high when Ferrari races in Italy, and the team is aiming to give its passionate “Tifosi” fans something to cheer.

“I think we’re going to be very track dependent and hopefully Imola is one of those good tracks for us. And we can put on a good show in front of the crowd,” Sainz said Thursday.
