Ayrton Senna started his racing career with Eddie Jordan back in 1982. The Irish businessman gave the Brazilian his first drive in Formula 3. In a recent podcast, the founder and owner of the Jordan Grand Prix opened up about his relationship with Ayrton Senna. The Brazilian champion started out with Eddie Jordan, and the pair became great friends over the year. The Irishman recalled a moment in Formula 1 when he was willing to give Ayrton Senna significant ownership of his Grand Prix team.

(Photo by Mark Thompson/Getty Images) “At one stage, not many people know this, but when he was going to Williams, we had a discussion where I’d actually give him some significant equity portion of Jordan Grand Prix in return for him coming with me,” Jordan recalled [https://open.spotify.com/episode/6QneWL8PR9m6kr02BDIbyZ?si=uXCWGwxgR4Cne8-NvYX84g&context=spotify%3Ashow%3A0yXlyAmCgU8m1uAqbnPXZ9&nd=1].

Ayrton Senna was and is still one of the biggest names in Formula 1. The hero of champions claimed three championships during his illustrious career. His name was synonymous with success, and that’s exactly why Eddie Jordan wanted the Brazilian on board [https://www.essentiallysports.com/f1-news-people-dont-remember-that-senna-started-with-me-eddie-jordan-opens-up-on-ayrton-senna/]. “I felt the value of him being with me would have driven the team into a position where we could probably fight more for the championships. The name and greatness of him would mean that we would have a chance of commercial reward from all sorts of different corporations,” he explained.

When Ayrton [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ayrton-senna/] spoke, you listened to him and it all made sense; there was no nonsense with him. Unfortunately, Ayrton Senna succumbed to a tragic accident at the 1994 Imola GP [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/emilia-romagna-grand-prix/], driving for Williams. Eddie Jordan recalled that it was a horrific weekend and a tragic day in the sport’s history. Ayrton remains to be a motorsport hero [https://www.essentiallysports.com/f1-news-vettel-mercedes-ferrari-and-others-remember-ayrton-senna-as-f1-returns-to-imola-after-14-years/] for several around the world, including Lewis Hamilton and me. Even after sixteen years from the fateful day, the Brazilian continues to live in our hearts and inspire people.

discussions regarding a part ownership for him in Jordan.

<strong>Ayrton Senna’s Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements</strong>

Brazilian driver Ayrton Senna is considered a legend in Formula One. He was beloved in his native Brazil and even in Japan, due to his McLaren <a href="https://en.hondaracingf1.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Honda</a> connection.

Senna is a 3-time world champion, winning all three for McLaren. He had had a bitter rivalry with Frenchman <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alain-prost/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alain Prost</a>. Senna made his F1 debut in 1984 with Toleman. His talent was clear when he bagged a podium at the 1984 Monaco Grand Prix for Toleman, an unheralded team.

A year later, he joined Lotus and raced with them for three years. In 1988, he joined McLaren to partner <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alain-prost/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alain Prost</a>. In his first season itself, he clinched the championship, his first. He took two more in 1990 and 1991.

He stayed with McLaren until the 1993 season, moving to Williams in 1994. Sadly, he never saw out the season as he was killed in a crash in San Marino.

<strong>On-track Achievements</strong>

In his nearly decade-long career, Senna has had numerous achievements. His maiden podium was a 2nd place in Monaco 1984. He followed it up with two 3rd places in Great Britain and Portugal. A maiden win came in Portugal 1985 followed by another win in Belgium. In 1986, he took two more wins for Lotus at the Spanish GP and the Detroit GP. His final two wins for the British outfit were at Monaco and Detroit.

In 1988, he announced his arrival at McLaren with a bang. Eight wins and three podiums were enough to ensure his maiden title. In 1989, he lost to Prost after a collision with the Frenchman. He tried to rejoin but was disqualified.

A year later, it was deja vu, although this collision occurred at the first corner on the opening lap. In 1991, he took the title again, this time, finishing the race. His final victory was at the 1993 Australian GP.

The legendary Brazilian arrived in F1 with two major backers. They were banking company Banerj and jeans company Pool.

<strong>Foundation and Charity</strong>

Despite his on-track persona and bitter rivalries, Senna was a saint to many Brazilians. He did a lot to aid children growing up in the slums of Brazil. His sister even founded the Ayrton Senna Foundation on his wishes.
