Since Senna’s tragic death at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, Willia🍌ms’ F1 cars have featured Senna’s persꦦonal logo as well as the phrase, “Ayrton Senna sempre” - “Ayrton Senna forever” in Portuguese.

Williams launched its new FW44 on Tuesday afternoon with the logo 🐻no longer present on the fro🧸nt nose.

Speaking after the launch of the new car, Capito said💜 it was now tiꦉme for the team to “move on”.

“The decision was [that] we want to move on for the future,” Capito explaine💯d. “We have a new era, we have a new car and we refurbished also our museum, where we have a special area where ✱we celebrate Ayrton.

“I think we need to look now in the future and n🍸ot showing the drivers the ’S’ all the time in the car and not reminding them what happened. I think now it’s time for the team to move on and be very honourable to Senna and having a very dedicated space in the museum and honour him there.”

The Grove outfit was taken over from the Williams family by Dorilton Capital in the second half ღof 2020🍷.

Caꦫpito confirmed that the decision to remove the Senna logo wasn’t discussed with the Williams family.

“We didn’t have a consultation or talk with the family,” Capito added. “But we are working with the foundation and we will increase our ef🔯forts with the foundation and then work with the foundation how we can 🧔support the Senna foundation more.

“I think that there are more people that will benefit from this and if it can help people espeꦚcially through the foundation and I think that’s a very good programme but it has to be still finally defined.”
