A stunning book, brilliantly written, entertaining and very informative.
I have been an F1 fan for 30 years, so the latter chapters in the book were exciting reminders of moments I had witnessed but forgotten. The earlier ones just blew my mind! With the necessity for F1 drivers today to be so supremely physically fit, I was amazed to read that Fangio was 39 years old when he started his career! I was also shocked to read about how many drivers, marshalls and spectators were killed in the early years - and the race just carried on!
Absolutely brutal!
A really great book!
5 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Kevin Eason and Collins Reference & The Times for an ARC in return for an honest review.
This is a must read book for any F1 fans either old fans or newer fans. I need this book in my own library :)
Superb collection of articles about a sport that I have grown to love. Intelligently written and extremely informative.
Great F1 book that covers many key events such as the most iconic races, epic rivalries, engineering innovations and statistics, Appreciated the coverage of 74 World Championships, from 1950 to 2023 as it took us back in time through all the individuals who won the f1 world championship.
As a relatively new fan of F1, I was keen to read more about the history and how the sport has evolved to where it is today. The newspaper extracts are great to read how the news was reported at the time and this book gives a real in depth view of each F1 season and the notable events. A great reference book for any F1 fan.
