Formula 1 (2nd Edition)
Description
The Formula 1: The Impossible Collection (2nd Edition) coffee table book captures the passion, speed, and spectacle of the world’s most thrilling sport. This monumental coffee table book celebrates seventy-five years of racing history—from the birth of the FIA Formula One World Championship in 1950 to the hybrid era of today. Each page is a tribute to the legends, machines, and moments that transformed the pursuit of speed into a global cultural phenomenon.
Curated by veteran Formula 1 journalist Brad Spurgeon, this new edition chronicles the most defining races, visionary innovations, and unforgettable rivalries in the sport’s rich heritage. Explore the triumphs of icons such as Juan Manuel Fangio, Niki Lauda, Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher, and Lewis Hamilton; the genius of engineers and designers like Enzo Ferrari, Colin Chapman, and Adrian Newey; and the evolution of teams that have come to symbolise excellence on four wheels. Each selection is presented with breathtaking photography and detailed storytelling that immerses the reader in the drama and emotion of Formula 1’s greatest eras.
Handcrafted as part of Assouline’s Ultimate Collection, this extraordinary volume is itself a collector’s object. Bound in a striking red rubber-clad cover with a polished metal plaque, lightly scented with an exclusive rubber-infused essence, it arrives housed in a handcrafted luxury clamshell case—an homage to the design and materials of Formula 1 itself. The result is a book that not only celebrates racing but embodies its energy, precision, and power.
Whether you are a lifelong fan, a collector of fine automotive art, or a devotee of modern craftsmanship, Formula 1: The Impossible Collection (2nd Edition) brings the adrenaline and elegance of the track into your home.
