The year of 1984 was a pivotal one for the 24-year-old Senna—he opened his first business account, Ayrton Senna Prom Empreendimentos LTDA, with his cousin and manager Fabio da Silva Machado, and he made his anticipated debut in the FIA Formula One World Championship—four years later, Senna would win the first of his three Drivers' Championships in 1988. An early and noteworthy document signed by Senna during his transformation from a little-known Brazilian sensation to a Formula One racing legend—this represents one of the first autographs Senna signed as a F1 driver.
