The Fastest Show on Earth

More about the book

This book includes contributions from F1 journalists, bloggers, F1 teams and management, hard-core aficionados, and sports agencies and covers every facet of the sport. It includes: team and circuit histories, F1 rejects (teams which have entered, but then left the championship), Bernie Ecclestone and the Piranha Club, engineering breakthroughs, female drivers, scandals and crashes. Clear and readable explanation of rules and regulations will enable any new fan attending a Grand Prix for the first time to follow and enjoy the race. Watching is much more fun when aware of the politics, the high-tech engineering, the challenges posed by rules, and all the great triumphs and costly failures going on behind the scenes
