With just twenty drivers competing at speeds of over 220 miles per hour on the world's most challenging racetracks, Formula 1 is the ultimate test for any driver.

To become a champion is to be counted among the world's greatest athletes.

In Grand Prix, Will Buxton pulls back the curtain on the cars, teams, tracks, records, and rivalries that have defined F1 since its very first world champion in 1950, Giuseppe Farina, to modern-day icons like Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen.

Join the teams revolutionising car design on the factory floor, become a fly on the pit wall and learn the art of the pitstop, and discover what it really takes to compete in the fast lane with this definitive introduction to the world's most exhilarating sport.
