Ayrton Senna's McLaren MP4/5B will take to the Interlagos Circuit during the São Paulo Grand Prix, in a celebration of his legacy. 

The São Paulo GP will recognise 30 years since the three-time world champion's death, with a demo run using his 1990 winning car to take place. 

It is yet to be announced who will drive the car as part of the Senna Forever initiative, with Honda and McLaren to bring the original car which the Brazilian driver raced. 

Following the car's lap of the circuit, it will be displayed near the garage in the pit lane, offering those on the Pitlane Walk an exclusive view. 

Honda and McLaren created the initiative to celebrate Senna's career and his connection to his home fans, who have been encouraged to wear the colours of the Brazilian flag to the race.

It has been a year since Max Verstappen won his third F1 title - with six grands prix to spare. Now Verstappen is in a fight this year, and with Red Bull under pressure to deliver him a car to retain his crown.
