Telling the story of the century of men and machines who pitted against each other, death riding at their elbow, and risking everything to win, this title celebrates 100 years of Grand Prix motor racing, from the first race in June 1906. It is suitable for the race fans and general readers.
This is one of the greatest stories ever told - a century of men and machines pitted against each other, death riding at their elbow, risking everything to win. In this action-packed volume, now available in paperback, Christopher Hilton celebrates 100 years of Grand Prix motor racing, from the first race in June 1906, when horses towed the new-fangled cars to the grid, to the awesome technology of today. It will fascinate both the race fan and general readers, spreading the human story before them like a feast.

Christopher Hilton, respected motorsport historian, is the author of over 30 Haynes books, including highly successful and renowned biographies of Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher.

Descriptions of every important race, every winner, and every leading driver. Essential statistics and evocative illustrations, many never published before. Original research, extraordinary detail. The rugged pioneers who shaped Grand Prix racing, and the 1920s chaps so careless of their mortality. The 1930s, when Hitler and Mussolini fought to have the best teams. Nuvolari, Varzi, Rosemeyer, Caracciola. The launch of the World Championship in 1950, the majesty of Fangio, the modest genius of Clark. Stewart and Lauda, Prost and Senna, leading to the unprecedented domination of Michael Schumacher and Ferrari.
