Ayrton Senna / Lotus 99T
Race-Used Rear O.Z. Rim Table, 1987 Formula One Season

A singular and historically resonant motorsport artifact, this sculptural table is fashioned from an original rear O.Z. Racing wheel rim used by Ayrton Senna on the Lotus 99T during the 1987 Formula One World Championship season—a pivotal year that marked Senna’s final campaign with Team Lotus and his emergence as one of the sport’s most electrifying talents.

Executed in the unmistakable black-and-gold livery of John Player Team Lotus, the rim retains its period-correct O.Z. Racing branding and authentic race patina. Most notably, it is hand-signed and dated in white marker by Ayrton Senna, directly on the rim surface—an exceptionally rare characteristic, particularly for race-used Lotus components. The autograph remains bold and legible, exhibiting strong, unmistakable traits consistent with Senna’s hand during the late 1980s.

The rim has been elevated into a one-of-one functional artwork, mounted on a bespoke black pedestal stand designed to complement—never compete with—the artifact itself. The presentation is completed with a discreet integrated plaque and accompanying original Lotus Certificate of Authenticity, confirming the rim’s race use and Senna association. The transformation respects the integrity of the original object, preserving its provenance while granting it a new sculptural presence.

Historical Significance

The Lotus 99T represents a crucial chapter in Senna’s career: a technically innovative machine powered by Honda, and the car in which Senna achieved multiple victories in 1987. Race-used rear rims from this period are inherently scarce; examples signed by Senna and preserved with factory-issued authentication are virtually unobtainable.

Rarity

This piece stands at the apex of Formula One memorabilia. Signed race-used Lotus components from Senna’s pre-McLaren years are significantly rarer than later examples, and rear rims—subjected to extreme stress and typically discarded—were seldom retained. The conversion into a table renders this example entirely unique: a true 1-of-1 object, with no comparable counterpart known.

Craftsmanship

The bespoke stand has been executed with curatorial restraint, allowing the rim’s form, signature, and historic markings to remain the focal point. The balance between industrial precision and gallery-level presentation reflects a high level of craftsmanship, transforming an engineering component into a refined collectible suitable for the most discerning private collections.

An irreplaceable tribute to Ayrton Senna’s Lotus era—where raw speed, innovation, and legacy converge in a single, definitive object.

Ayrton Senna / McLaren MP4/6
Race-Used Front Tire Table, 1991 Australian Grand Prix

An extraordinary and museum-grade motorsport artifact transformed into a functional sculptural object, this table is crafted from an original front tire used on Ayrton Senna’s McLaren MP4/6 during the 1991 Australian Grand Prix, the very season in which Senna secured his third Formula One World Championship.

The tire—bearing authentic race wear consistent with Grand Prix use—has been meticulously preserved and elevated through bespoke craftsmanship. It is mounted on a polished chrome pedestal base, giving the piece a commanding yet refined presence, while a custom circular clear acrylic tabletop floats seamlessly above the tire. The tabletop is precision-engraved with:

• “Ayrton Senna – McLaren MP4/6”

• “Driven to Perfection”

• “GP 1991”

• A stylized circuit outline

• Senna’s iconic “S” insignia

The result is a striking fusion of engineering, history, and contemporary design, transforming a race-used component into a conversation-defining collectible suitable for a private collection, gallery, or luxury interior.

Most notably, the tire is hand-signed and dated in white marker by Ayrton Senna himself, a detail of exceptional importance. Authentic Senna autographs—particularly those applied directly to race-used McLaren components—are exceedingly rare, made all the more so by his untimely death in 1994. The signature remains clearly visible on the tire sidewall and exhibits strong period-correct characteristics.

The piece is accompanied by an official McLaren Certificate of Authenticity, confirming the tire’s use and provenance, further reinforcing its legitimacy and desirability at the highest level of the collectors’ market.

Rarity & Collectibility

Race-used tires from Senna’s championship-winning MP4/6 are scarce in their own right; examples that are signed, dated, documented, and professionally re-purposed are virtually unheard of. This object occupies a rare intersection between Formula One history, fine memorabilia, and functional design, appealing equally to elite motorsport collectors and discerning design connoisseurs.

Craftsmanship

The conversion from race artifact to table has been executed with restraint and respect for the original material. No elements distract from the tire’s authenticity; instead, the transparent tabletop and minimalist stand allow the provenance, signature, and patina of use to remain the focal point. The craftsmanship enhances rather than alters—preserving the soul of the object while granting it new life.

An exceptional tribute to Ayrton Senna’s legacy—where speed, precision, and mastery are permanently frozen in form.

Race-used, signed and dated
