The front-engined racing car dominated Grand Prix racing for the first half-century of the sport, from the inaugural event in 1906 to the late 1950s. Karl Ludvigsen's authoritative and beautifully illustrated history of the development of these powerful machines celebrates the engineering of their designs and recaptures the pioneering spirit of the golden age of Grand Prix racing.
Karl Ludvigsen, a motoring historian with more than two dozen books to his credit, has written a number of best-selling books for Haynes including the acclaimed titles The V12 Engine and Classic Racing Engines. He lives near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.
A classic book packed with historic images and now featuring 24 pages of glorious colour photography. Concept and construction, advances in engine and chassis technology. Unique table of key specifications of 112 great racing cars. Rise and fall of famous manufacturers in the battle for race dominance. Post-war, the increasingly complex GP cars. The Maseratis, Alfa Romeos, BRMs, Lancias, Mercedes, Vanwalls, Lotuses and Ferraris driven by Ascari, Farina, Fangio and Moss, among others, were the best and last of their kind.
