McLaren's MP4/4 was perhaps the most successful Formula 1 car ever built. In the hands of Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost, it totally dominated the 1988 season, winning all but one of the 16 races. The MP4/4 was a superb coming together of a brilliant chassis design and the best engine, plus two of the greatest drivers of any era, McLaren had an unbeatable combination.

Ayrton would later say of his MP4/4: "To be successful, you must have everything...a good engine and a good car. That is what McLaren gave me. The best car I drove in my career, by far."
