Grand Prix: An Illustrated History of Formula 1

This book is an absolute treat if you love F1. The illustrations are gorgeous, capturing the drivers and the spirit of some of the sport’s most unforgettable moments.What I really enjoyed is how the book is laid out. It follows a historical timeline, bringing back so many great memories from different eras of F1. Each section is short and punchy, so it’s super easy to pick up, flip to a random page, and get lost in a story. You don’t have to read it cover to cover—just dive in wherever you like.This book is an engaging, visually stunning way to explore the world of Grand Prix. Loved it and Highly recommend it!

A wonderful illustrative deep dive into Formula 1s history. Love how the book was formatted highlighting drivers and important races and teams history all in one. As a new Formula 1 fan I finished this in a week or so from nighttime reading, I was excited to learn something new everyday. Bravo Will and cheers to hopefully many more great years in the Motorsport industry.

As a fan of Will Buxton, I was eager to get this book. I found it very informative and the illustrations looked amazing. Perfect for F1 newbies as well.

This is a great book for learning about the history, drivers, and teams in Formula One. I'm reading this book to my 8-year-old son who is an F1 fan. This book is easily readable, with nice graphics. I highly recommend it for those that want to learn about the history of F1, without having to read a big, boring book. Well done.

I've been following Will Buxton since the very early 00s and have been a fan of his writing, he just paints a picture with words. I bought this book the moment I became aware of it.This particular book is great for any F1 fan of course, but particularly for the 'Netflix fans'. There are so many new fans that got into the sport because of the Netflix show, which is fantastic because it was about time that people in the US discovered what an awesome sport it is. There IS a slight problem with this, however, because those Netflix fans only know what they are told, and their narrative is often WAAAY off the mark. Unfortunately there is a very real 'reality TV level', to the point that it sometimes feels almost scripted. Some of the storylines are even fabricated out of thin air. F1 is so much more than what you see on Netflix, and this book is a great startIt takes you through the history of Formula One, tells you about the technical aspects of the cars, brief histories of the teams, and a lot of the most important players. It only scratches the surface, so hopefully it'll give you some direction on what to read about next. I'd also recommend subscribing to F1 TV to watch the shows and documentaries, and even full race footage going back to the early 80s.If you call yourself a fan of F1, and you'd like to really get into it, this book should really be on the shelf. It's also available as an audiobook, but that is really more of a companion thing than a stand alone audiobook. A lot of the text annotates illustrations, so you should really have the book in hand as you listen to the audiobook

This book is a great breakdown of the history of Formula 1 but this is recommended only for those who have very little knowledge of the sport.

Absolutely amazing book. Brilliant design and content. Very nice for coffee table or decor.

The words and illustrations help bring the sport alive, even to long time fans. If you like "Drive to Survive", this is for you!
