Legends Senna & Verstappen featured in new Honda campaign

An emotional new Honda brand campaign debuts today – “Unstoppable Dreams” – led by a sixty-second spot that brings to life the Honda “Challenging Spirit” and the idea that resounding success is often the result of failures: honda.us/unstoppabledreams. The new Honda brand spot follows the distinctive journeys of competitors with strong ties to Honda as they pursued their racing ambitions, including the late F1 racing legend Ayrton Senna and current FIA Formula 1® World Champion Max Verstappen.

The inspiring new Honda spot is brought to life by acclaimed director Rupert Sanders and utilizes an engaging reverse poem format, so what begins as a disheartening story about failure and giving up reverses course to showcase how personal setbacks can serve as the greatest teacher and catalyst to achieve big dreams.

The cinematic spot features iconic Honda race machines including the 1992 Formula 1® winning McLaren Honda MP4/7A driven by Ayrton Senna and the FIA Formula 1®  championship 2021 Red Bull Racing Honda RB16B driven by Max Verstappen, as well as exciting forthcoming products.

“We want to inspire our customers and fans by celebrating those who embody the company Challenging Spirit including the almost mythic status of the late Brazilian racer Ayrton Senna and the three-time reigning FIA Formula 1 World Champion Max Verstappen,” said Phil Hruska, Senior Manager, Automotive Marketing. “This new campaign delivers a reassuring message of how determination and self-belief can lead to resounding triumph.”
