Comfort in action: Tenneco’s highly tuneable hydraulic rebound stop (HRS) system is designed to minimise the damper rebound topping energy and noise encountered in BEVs and other comparatively heavy passenger vehicles. The Ride Refine Advanced HRS also eliminates the need for chassis reinforcements. Here’s how it works…
Reflecting on Ayrton Senna’s incredible performance at the 1993 European Grand Prix at the Donington Park circuit, Bruno Senna took to the track in a McLaren Senna hypercar in tribute to his uncle’s epic drive. The 1993 race is memorable not only as the scene of one of Ayrton Senna’s most accomplished race victories, but also one of the greatest laps in Formula 1 history. See how Bruno’s lap compared in the 1,198kg, 800PS McLaren Senna
