Now available in paperback, this meticulously researched book - described by "The Sun" as 'incredible' - outlines each of the 858 World Championship races held since the beginning of Formula 1 in 1950. Each entry highlights the key events of a Grand Prix - from qualifying through to the final outcome - as well as spotlighting those incidental happenings so unique to F1 that influenced a race or an unfolding championship battle. Nothing is missed. Every significant happening is recorded. As TV commentator Martin Brundle states in his foreword, this is a 'comprehensive yet condensed record for posterity'.

Roger Smith has spent his professional life working with and making use of statistics, latterly as Managing Director, Europe, of Nielsen Television Ratings, the leading worldwide source of viewing figures for broadcasters and advertisers. He has had a lifelong interest in Formula 1 and is the author of Haynes's Formula 1 Top Tens and Analysing Formula 1.

Each race entry is packed with information, comprising a descriptive text supported by numerous statistics. 858 races, 192 winning cars, 102 winning drivers, 62 seasons, 32 champions. All race-winning cars illustrated with high-quality artwork by Alain Baudouin. Top 100 races highlighted - the special occasions that have entered Formula 1 folklore and can truly be considered as Grand Prix Gold. Decade-by-decade structure: the 1950s (From red to green); the 1960s (Cigarettes and whisky), the 1970s (Television stardom), the 1980s (Bernie's travelling circus), the 1990s (Going global), the 2000s (Front-page news).
