"Formula Ford: A Legacy of Speed and Skill" In the world of motorsports, it has long been hailed as a breeding ground for future racing champions. With its affordable yet high-performance cars, this single-seater racing series has captured the hearts of both drivers and fans alike. One iconic moment in Formula Ford history was captured by CM5 7842 Jonathan Hoad, showcasing the intense competition between Van Diemen RF90 racers like himself. The adrenaline-fueled battles on the track were not limited to one brand though; CM1 5502 Andrew Mansell's Merlyn Mk11A and Dick Dixon's Lotus 61 added their own flavor to the mix. The allure extended beyond national championships as well. In a captivating image from the EFDA Formula Ford 2000 Championship in Jyllandsring, Denmark on August 22, 1982, race winner Ayrton Senna da Silva is seen deep in thought before his upcoming race. Little did anyone know that this young Brazilian driver would go on to become an icon in the sport. Dennis Rushen, owner of Rushen Green Racing Team, played a pivotal role in Senna's journey through Formula Ford. As shown in another snapshot from Formula Ford 2000 action, Rushen holds out the pit board to none other than Ayrton Senna himself – a testament to their successful partnership. Sitting inside his Van Diemen RF82 at Oulton Park Circuit or proudly donning his winner's garland after triumphing three out of four visits there – these images capture Senna's dominance during his time with Rushen Racing. But it wasn't just about individual victories; teamwork also shone brightly within this competitive series. Townsend Thoresen Formula Ford 1600 Championship at Brands Hatch showcased drivers pushing themselves and their Merlyn Mk20s to new limits while CM17 0976 David McArthur and his Van Diemen LA10 demonstrated the dedication required to succeed.
