Book Synopsis Formula 1: Car by Car 1950-59 by : Peter Higham
Download or read book Formula 1: Car by Car 1950-59 written by Peter Higham and published by Formula 1 CBC. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The formative years of the 1950s are explored in this fourth installment of Evro's decade-by-decade series covering all Formula 1 cars and teams. When the World Championship was first held in 1950, red Italian cars predominated, from Alfa Romeo, Ferrari and Maserati, and continued to do so for much of the period. But by the time the decade closed, green British cars were in their ascendancy, first Vanwall and then rear-engined Cooper playing the starring roles, and BRM and Lotus having walk-on parts. As for drivers, one stood out above the others, Argentine Juan Manuel Fangio, becoming World Champion five times. Much of the fascination of this era also lies in its numerous privateers and also-rans, all of which receive their due coverage in this complete work. Year-by-year treatment covers each season in fascinating depth, running through the teams -- and their various cars -- in order of importance. Alfa Romeo's supercharged 11⁄2-litre cars dominated the first two years, with titles won by Giuseppe Farina (1950) and Fangio (1951). The new marque of Ferrari steamrollered the opposition in two seasons run to Formula 2 rules (1952-53), Alberto Ascari becoming champion both times, and the same manufacturer took two more crowns with Fangio (1956) and Mike Hawthorn (1958). Maserati's fabulous 250F, the decade's most significant racing car, propelled Fangio to two more of his five championships (1954 and 1957). German manufacturer Mercedes-Benz stepped briefly into Formula 1 (1954-55) and won almost everything with Fangio and up-and-coming Stirling Moss. Green finally beat red when the Vanwalls, driven by Moss and Tony Brooks, won the inaugural constructors' title (1958). Then along came Cooper, rear-engine pioneers, to signpost Formula 1's future when Jack Brabham became World Champion (1959).

Download or read book Qprs written by Clyde Berryman and published by . This book was released on 2021-08 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovative statistical analysis and hundreds of new illustrations rewrite the history of Formula One racing. Any devotee of Formula One Grand Prix racing will have their picks for which drivers are the greatest of all time and which are wildly overrated--selections likely guided in large part by personal, even emotional, preferences. Clyde Berryman's QPRS brings a welcome dose of hard data into these fevered discussions with the introduction of the Quality Point Rating System, a method that uses mathematical formulae to analyze both Formula One drivers and their racing vehicles. In this book, Berryman digs deep into every Formula One World Championship from 1950 to 2019, using the QPRS method to create a new statistical analysis-based rating for every driver and car in competition. In addition to its potentially paradigm-shifting assessments of racing legends, QPRS also stands out as a major fine art book, with more than 200 color illustrations from some of today's foremost motorsport artists that depict Formula One's most memorable moments in a variety of media. This book may forever change the way racing fans look at the history of the Formula One Grand Prix.
Book Synopsis Grand Prix Cars by : Denis Jenkinson
Download or read book Grand Prix Cars written by Denis Jenkinson and published by Edizioni Savine. This book was released on 2015-10-02 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “ In compiling this brief history of Grand Prix racing, along with descriptions of the more successful cars, I have limited myself to the period since World War II as the present day Grand Prix cars are mostly derived from the development and design of the early post war years. Although many ideas were taking shape in the period of the mid-thirties — such as the use of De Dion rear axle layouts, independent front suspension systems and hydraulic brakes — the main interest lay in engine design under a free ruling on capacity. It was not until about 1950 that a renaissance began in chassis design for Grand Prix cars and from then on a great deal of knowledge was gained; enough in fact, to enable roadholding to become a very exact science rather than a hit-and-miss affair. This development in the chassis and the search for improved road holding and higher cornering power was accentuated by the beginning of the era of unsupercharged racing, when power outputs were severely curtailed and speed had to be found by other means ...” (1959 - Denis Jenkinson)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Monaco sponsored its first race in 1929 and the circuit has been part of the Formula 1 series since 1950. Conducted with the patronage of Monaco’s royal family, its beautiful street-circuit has made Monaco the most glamorous setting of any F1 race. But the classic architecture and high-profile spectators belie a course notorious for its complexity and challenges. With no safety barriers until 1969, drivers have twice plunged into the harbor among the spectating yachts. Off the circuit, Monaco is a 24-hour spectacle of expensive boats, high-profile parties, celebrity F1 fans, penthouse spectating, and high-roller lifestyle. From the Monte Carlo casino (integral to numerous James Bond films) to top clubs like Amber Lounge, Jimmy’z, and The Black Lounge to F1 racers’ luxury homes to the takeoffs and landings of countless private jets, Monaco represents the epitome of the jet-setting lifestyle long associated with the F1 circus. From the first Grand Prix in 1929 to today's star-studded event, The Life Monaco Grand Prix takes the reader on a full lap of this prestigious race.
