A super informative and entertaining deep dive into the history (and a few modern big moments) in Formula 1! Each chapter focuses on a different theme - the history of Ferrari, the Spygate scandal, the impact of Netflix on the sport, etc. - making it super easy to pick up and just knock out one chapter and historic moment at a time! The writing style is really engaging and funny at times. Definitely recommend for new or longtime Formula 1 fans!

I LOVE this book! I grew up on F1, literally since I was born (though obviously don't remember those early years), and I found this fascinating.
I love that I remember a lot of the battles and personalities mentioned, but there was still so much new behind the scenes information I learnt. It was great to see an unbiased and "unsensationalised" version of most of the historical F1 events.
I liked how each section was split, and even though there was minor back and forth in time, it worked well given the chapter subjects. However, I was surprised they didn't actually name Jules Bianchi when mentioning the safety car crash.
I completely devoured this and I wish they'd written even more. I am still haunted by Abu Dhabi, 2021 - that's something I'll never forgive Michael Masi for and reading this chapter brought it all back, but then also reading the Silver Bullet chapter gave me goosebumps recalling that memory.
It covers how the sport evolved from just the private elite into the media sensation it is today. Showing how a lot of the main teams evolved over time and the struggles they and the FIA went through to keep the sport alive.
Overall, if you have any interest in the sport then I can't recommend this enough, it's full of the great moments of the sport.
*I received a complementary copy of the book from Random Things Tours and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
