Customer Reviews

Love it.

I am new to Formula 1 and just getting into it (or think so at least). I am learning so much from this book. It explains everything very thoroughly and is an easy read. I am becoming so comfortable with the information I'm absorbing. This is really a great place to start for people newly interested in the sport.

Good for the Formula 1 Challenged

This is actually not a bad book. If you don't know much about Formula 1, this book will inform you. Very informative yet simple and easy reading.
