Grand Prix - An Illustrated History of Formula 1

Over its seventy-plus years of history, Formula 1 racing has grown from a niche motorsport with just a few events per season into a global phenomenon followed by more than a billion fans.

With just twenty drivers competing at speeds of over 220 miles per hour on more than twenty of the world’s most glamorous and challenging racetracks, Formula 1 is the ultimate test of machine and humankind. To become a champion means to be counted among the most elite athletes the world has ever known. As the lead commentator on Netflix’s breakout series Formula 1: Drive to Survive, Will Buxton has emerged as the most prominent journalist covering the sport for the new generation of fans.
