Inside the book
2 Book Box Set
Only thirty-five men have ever captured a Formula 1 world championship title. This two-book set covers the engineering and records behind those elite drivers. One book tracks the evolution of the machines from pre-war Alfa Romeo and Mercedes-Benz to modern Red Bull and McLaren cars. The other book is a massive repository of every driver, constructor, and engine record since 1950. Having both on your bench means you own the definitive technical specs and trivia for every circuit and tire in the sport.
