Senna: the team manager's story
AUTOSPORT begins this week's commemoration of the 20th anniversary of Ayrton Senna's death with the memories of IAN HARRISON, then team manager at Williams
"Ayrton Senna is joining Williams..."
I have to say that even though I was the team manager at the time, I had a certain feeling of trepidation when I heard this news. It was pretty daunting, because he was Ayrton Senna... he was coming with a little bit of a reputation.
I suppose we thought he might be difficult to work with - all of the top drivers were demanding, but it was something we'd got used to. We'd had Nigel Mansell and Alain Prost at the team, but nobody quite knew what Ayrton would be like. Still, we were professional and we knew what we were doing.
