The pinnacle of motorsport, Formula One was born in 1950 at the British Grand Prix and ever since the inaugural Silverstone race has repeatedly delivered drama, unforgettable drives and controversy both on and off the track.

Celebrating three quarters of a century of high-octane thrills and spills in 2025, it boasts a global fan base of millions and remains a byword for entertainment and petrol-infused exhilaration. 75 Years of Formula One charts the fascinating history of Grand Prix racing over its first eight decades of action, telling the unique story of how F1 grew irresistibly from a modest, predominantly European event with only seven races into a worldwide sporting phenomenon.

The book also profiles the F1 World Championship’s legendary drivers from iconic Argentinian Juan Manuel Fangio to the inimitable Ayrton Senna, Jackie Stewart to the unstoppable Michael Schumacher, all the way up to modern greats Lewis Hamilton and reigning world champion Max Verstappen.
