1988

Ayrton Senna’s 1988 season was one of the most dominant in Formula 1 history. 

Driving for McLaren-Honda, he ran eight races and finished on the podium in all but one race. He also set a new record for pole positions in a season, with 13. His teammate, Alain Prost, won seven races, but Senna’s consistency gave him the edge in the championship battle. 

Ayrton Senna had 7 wins in the Formula 1 championship, and his closest rival, Alain Prost, had 6 wins. Senna did not want to give Prost any chances of winning the championship, so he worked hard to guarantee the trophy before the last race. 

He did this by setting the pole position and the best lap in the penultimate race of the season, the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka. He then went on to win the race, becoming Formula 1 world champion for the first time. 

It was an unforgettable race, and Senna’s victory was a testament to his skill and determination. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest Formula 1 drivers of all time.
