    Full Description

    This book dedicated to the history of Formula 1 aims to establish itself as a reference title on the subject. Conceived as a large-format bilingual French English illustrated book, it retraces more than 75 years of motor racing through an exceptional selection of photographs from the archives of AFP, DPPI and Getty Images. The book brings together numerous previously unpublished and rarely seen images, covering not only the defining moments of the championship but also more intimate and behind-the-scenes moments from the history of teams, drivers and the sport itself. The texts are written by two of the most respected authors in motorsport journalism: French author Lionel Froissart, who explores the drivers, rivalries and legendary duels that shaped Formula 1, and British author Paul Fearnley, who examines the technical evolution, innovation and major transformations of the sport over the decades.

    Text in English and French.

Over the course of his career, he also worked as a television commentator and consultant for several broadcasters, including Canal+ and Eurosport. After graduating from university with a History degree, Paul Fearnley joined Motoring News in 1990 as its junior rally reporter. He was its editor by the end of 1997. Editorships of F1 Racing and Motor Sport magazines followed. Turning freelance in 2005, he has written about numerous other sports. But always he returns to his beloved motor racing.
