Description
Provides an account of the inside story of the glamorous and challenging sport of motor racing. The Renault and Williams racing team take readers behind-the-scenes for a close-up look at the men, their machines, and what makes them run. Filled with photography, exploded views, captions and annotations, as well as informative graphics and technical statistics, this book provides a driver's-eye view of the evolution of Formula 1 racing. It reveals the amazing technology of the modern engine, introduces readers to the personalities, the world teams, the race officials, and gives a feel for what it is like behind the wheel and in the pits as you experience all the stresses, thrills and spills of life on the Grand Prix circuit.
