Torino Italy Auto Show 2000 Autosport.Net co-sponsored the well-received booth at the Salone dell'Auto Torino. Turin's 2000 International Auto Show was a big time event, with thousands of accredited media and several hundred thousand visitors during the week. The Ayrton Senna Foundation was honoured with a booth which showcased Ayrton's life and legacy. Included were video montages, artwork, literature, memorabilia of Senna's provided by Autosport.Net, and the piece de resistance: Senna's Lotus JPS 98T chassis #1, with eight documented Pole Positions in the 1986 F1 season, used extra parts of which are now available here on Autosport.Net. The media were rapturous with praise for the display and wrote extensively about celebrity guests including Rubens Barrichello (who was quite touched) and about the car, saying that it was as much art as history. The timeless lines and colours of the John Player Special helped make the display a hit. Clicked Photos Will Open a New Window.
