Ayrton Senna 1973 Karting Full-Size 1:1 Replica Helmet

Ayrton Senna’s first official race occurred in July of 1973, in Interlagos, when he was 13 years old. It was also the first of his many victories.

A genuine natural talent, Ayrton Da Silva (he did not immediately use the name of Senna, which was his mother’s) quickly demonstrated how incredibly fast he was behind a steering wheel, initially to his close relations, notably in a kart manufactured by his father. And Ayrton impatiently waited until he was 13 years old before he was at last allowed to enter his first official race. And on 1st July 1973 the newcomer landed victory at the Interlagos track – it was the first of a long series. Unbeaten throughout his maiden competition season, Ayrton broadened his sphere of activity: the regional races were rapidly followed by national and international events, and in 1977 he won the South American Championship, his first major title. This convinced him that he had to go to Europe in order to challenge the best Drivers of the discipline. His team was DAP, the make dear to the Parrilla brothers, Angelo and Achille.
