Why You'll Love It

• Comprehensive coverage of Formula 1 history from origins to 2012 — The encyclopedia spans the complete history of the Formula 1 World Championship, covering the technical regulations, team rivalries, driver careers and circuit histories that shaped the sport from its post-war origins through to the modern turbo-hybrid era — providing the depth of historical context that short-form race reports and highlights packages cannot match and that makes the difference between knowing results and understanding the sport.
• All World Champions, iconic cars and defining races in one volume — Coverage of every Drivers’ World Champion from Giuseppe Farina in 1950 through to the era of publication provides a complete record of the sport’s greatest achievements, with entries on the most significant cars — from the Alfa Romeo 158 to the Ferrari F2002 to the Red Bull RB6 — and the defining races that decided championships and changed the direction of the sport.
• Hardback format suitable for display and long-term reference — The hardback binding and substantial 2kg weight indicate a large-format illustrated reference edition built for long-term use on a bookshelf rather than a paperback cover survey — making it appropriate both as a reference book for regular consultation and as a display piece for a home office, study or dedicated motorsport space.
• An ideal gift for Formula 1 fans of all ages — The encyclopedia format with comprehensive coverage of drivers, teams and technical history makes this suitable for both lifelong Formula 1 followers who will appreciate the historical depth and newer fans introduced to the sport by recent media coverage who want to understand the context behind current teams and driver names.
