About the Book

Strap yourself in and fill the tank with high octane! F1: Speed Read is loaded with all the information you'll need to get into the world of blinding speed called Formula 1. You'll get the history of the sport, biographies of major drivers and figures who have dominated the sport in its long and storied history, and a rundown of the incredible technology that makes these cars so fast that they stay glued to the road. You may not guess it, but the world's premiere automobile racing series takes the Formula One name from the set of rules governing the class. Plans for a Formula One drivers championship were floated in the late 1930s, but shelved until after World War Two. In 1946 the first F1 races were held, but it wasn't until 1950 that the details for a true world-championship series were hammered out. It was a long road from the 1930s to now for this great sport; one marked by glory, championships, iteration, technology, and speed. Don't be intimidated by this incredible culture, dive into F1 Racing today!

About the Author :

James Mann is one of the world's leading car and motorcycle photographers, with more than twenty years of experience shooting for car and bike publications, the motor industry, and businesses all over the world.

Review :
“Thanks to its interesting and original content, beautiful art, clean layout and presentation, and numerous tidbits both important and trivial, the book offers not a cold look at one of the world’s most expensive sports but rather a warm invitation to explore Formula One’s curious universe of strange yet magnetic personalities, high strakes drama, and mind-bogglingly fast cars.”   “While someone who doesn’t know the first thing about Formula 1 racing will most definitely get a great introduction to every aspect of the sport, a long-time Formula 1 fan will still enjoy the concise history and overview of the sport they love. What Codling has done here is create a book that can be given to anyone, including those who don’t know the first thing about cars, and enjoyed thoroughly.”   "All-in-all, it’s a fascinating read ripe with informative factoids and fascinating stories."
