The McLaren MP4 / 8A in which Ayrton Senna won his last Monaco Grand Prix in 1993 gains interesting prospective buyers.

There is reportedly a bid of six million euros for the car of Ayrton Senna and it is rumoured that the bidder may be Lewis Hamilton. It is common knowledge that the world champion is a huge admirer of Senna. He is also a likely prime contender for the purchase of the old Formula 1 car when considering his enormous wealth.

Other rumours state that former McLaren boss Ron Dennis has similar interests in purchasing the car. The Briton worked at McLaren from 1981 to 2009, and he has still been very actively involved with them thereafter. Auctioneer Mark Osborne did not comment about the mysterious buyer, except the fact that he wanted to hear the engine running.
