Description
Formula One - The Real Score? For over 70 years, Formula 1 has been shrouded in controversy over its records. Until January 1980, the terms "Grand Prix" and "World Championship" were not synonymous, with many races excluded from the championship due to a perceived need for each country to have just one event. This decision does a disservice to the achievements of drivers like Fangio, Moss, Clark, and Stewart, as well as the four pre-championship years that began in 1946. This book sets out to correct this anomaly by including all races, both championship and non-championship events, alongside known figures since 1980. The result is a more accurate picture of Formula 1's history, with each race given its rightful place in the records as a "Championship quality" event. By combining these two eras, the author produces a comprehensive and definitive account of the sport. 352 pages, hardcover.
