The Inside Track on Formula One

Bask in Formula One glory with this 75th Anniversary edition of The Champions, featuring exhilarating photography and expert commentary. Since the Grand Prix’s start in 1950, just 34 men have achieved the accolade of F1 World Champion. For the first time, legendary F1 commentator Maurice Hamilton and award-winning photographers Bernard and Paul-Henri Cahier bring the heroes of this iconic sport together, in a stunning photographic portrayal of the poise, skill and winning mindset that separates the fast from the furious, the elite from the talented. Formula One and its champions are brought to life with:<ul><li>An exquisitely written profile of each of the 34&nbsp;F1 World Champions, with key details from the driver’s life and F1 career</li><li>Stunning photography of the drivers and their cars, both on and off the track</li><li>Historic interviews with the sport’s lost heroes, including James Hunt and Ayrton Senna</li><li>Exclusive quotes from icons such as Max Verstappen,&nbsp;Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg</li><li>A brand new foreword by Damon Hill, former F1 World Champion.</li></ul>Debate has raged over which driver is the best of the best. It is impossible to say. But that will not deter energetic and informed discussion, usually predicated on a personal preference swayed by affection. Each of these champions will have experienced and delivered pulse-raising performances many times over. &nbsp; Fully revised and updated for the 75th Anniversary and with a new foreword by F1 legend Damon Hill, this handsome homage to the most ferocious of sports and the incredible sportsmen who drive at the edge in pursuit of greatness, it is time to choose your favorite F1 Champion.

75 years of legendary F1 drivers

Formula One: The Champions

As lead presenter for Sky Sports Formula One live coverage, Simon Lazenby is at the centre of Grand Prix race-weekend action. In this book, he takes us off camera to give us exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to the people who power this multi-billion-pound sport. Drawing on over a decade's accumulated first-hand knowledge and connections across the paddock, Simon talks to key experts and professionals within the teams and the overall organisation, who each reveal how they operate, how they compete, the skills they've learnt to navigate the challenges they face. Among the insiders who let us into their world are Max Verstappen's race engineer, whose voice we hear on the driver's cockpit radio communicating key strategic decisions, and the Aston Martin mechanic who oversees the team responsible for assembling the F1 car from 14,500 different components before each GP. There's the performance coach, who has to ensure that the drivers' necks can withstand the equivalent of 24kg of weight (helmet + head + G force) and Giorgio Piola whose sketches of F1 cars have been revered since the late 1960s. George Russell talks about life at Mercedes as their new lead driver. And at the top of pyramid are Zak Brown, CEO of current contenders McLaren, and James Vowles, team principal of Williams, who are breaking through. In all, we get insight for some 27 separate roles up and down the paddock. We see split-second, mid-race decision-making at the pit wall, lightning physical and technical efficiency in the pit lane, high-level politics and boardroom manoeuvres, emergency medical interventions, genius design innovation and much more inside track action. This is a unique, first-hand insight into human performance under extreme pressure at the highest level of motorsport, bringing man and machine together to compete at speeds of 200 miles per hour.

Will Buxton'This is a must read for all F1 fans. ' Greg James 'Matt's access to the inner workings of Formula 1 racing is unparalleled.' Gareth Southgate'This book lifts the lid on what life is really like inside our team and it has been based on unprecedented access - nobody has ever been this close to what happens behind the scenes.' Toto Wolff_______________________________________________________________________With exclusive and unprecedented access to the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team, award-winning writer Matt Whyman charts the journey of the Silver Arrows as they face their greatest challenge: the race back to the front. Once untouchable, the winner of seven Drivers' World Championships and eight consecutive Constructors' World Championships confront the reality of no longer being F1's top dog. Whyman, fully embedded across the 2023 and 2024 seasons, follows decorated drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, Team Principal Toto Wolff, and the extraordinary men and women that design, build and race the team's cars as they fight back - on and off the track. From the tension of pre-season testing to the thrill and glamour of race weekends - including blue riband events such as Silverstone, Monaco, and the first-ever Las Vegas Grand Prix - the book provides fascinating insight into the world of the fastest sport on earth and one of its most successful teams. Whyman reveals the pressure cooker environment of elite competition, shares the secrets of teamwork and high performance, and foregrounds the remarkable individuals who push to the limits in their quest for victory. The book will also include never-before-seen photographs of life inside the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team.

Complete Book Series

Take an exhilarating ride through Jaguar production history, from the original SS to the I-PACE EV, with narratives, photos, and spec tables for each. In 1935, a pair of motorcycle enthusiasts in Coventry, England—William Lyons and William Walmsley—established a firm called the Swallow Sidecar Company. Soon, they pivoted to automobiles, launching a sporting saloon (i.e., sedan) called the Jaguar SS. The decision set in motion the company that would create Britain’s most beloved line of high-performance automobiles. The Complete Book of Jaguar, 2nd Edition tells the whole story with: <ul><li>A thorough profile for every production model, presented in chronological order</li><li>Spec tables&nbsp;highlighting key technical and performance specifications and their changes across each model</li><li>Narratives by distinguished motoring historian Nigel Thorley discussing the innovations and technology featured in each model</li><li>Color photography of new and restored examples</li><li>Historical black-and-white imagery</li><li>A new chapter covering Jaguar’s commitment to an alt-fuel future with extensive up-to-date coverage of the hybrid E-PACE and F-PACE SUVs and the I-PACE EV</li></ul> As you turn the pages, follow Jaguar’s trajectory to becoming one of the world’s most celebrated automakers. In England’s bleak postwar years, the company was a shining star—first with its XK120, followed by the XK140 and XK150. Sporting sedans like the Mark 2 and Mark X set the bar for luxury four-door transport in the ’50s and ’60s. Then Jaguar stunned the world in 1961 with the achingly beautiful E-Type, a genuine 150 mph sports car.&nbsp;Though Jaguar lost its way periodically in the modern era, it has bounded back stronger than ever in the twenty-first century with a strong lineup that includes the new F-Type sports car. The Complete Book of Jaguar, 2nd Edition is the essential and most current guide to one of the truly iconic marques in the history of sports and luxury automobiles. Filled with photos and data-packed spec charts, Motorbooks’ Complete Book series presents automotive and motorcycle enthusiasts with authoritative histories celebrating their favorite vehicles. Some other subjects in the series include Corvette, Porsche 911, Ford Mustang, Ducati, BMW Motorcycles, Dodge and Plymouth Muscle Cars, and Volkswagen GTI.&nbsp;&nbsp;

'The gripping story of England's transformation from prissy blockers to double world champions'
The Times

'A must-read for any cricket lover'
Nasser Hussain, Former England captain and Sky Sports commentator

The inside story of how England became the first men's team to hold both of cricket's World Cups simultaneously, from the players and key people involved.

When England lifted the T20 World Cup in November 2022, they became the first ever men's team to be One-Day International and Twenty20 world champions simultaneously. In English sport, triumphs aren't just rare - they also tend to be followed by a collapse. England's white-ball cricket side was different: a team that followed scaling the summit by doing so again. They became, as Australia's captain put it, "the benchmark" for the rest of the world.
 
White Hot tells the full story of how England built one of the most extraordinary sides ever seen in limited-overs cricket. First in 2019 and then in 2022, they produced a series of mesmerising performances to win two World Cups. It is a story of the vision and strategy that underpinned England's transformation from white-ball stragglers into a side at the very cutting edge of their sport. It is a story of a golden generation, and the development of a system that passed on those values to the players that came next. And it is a story of how a conservative sporting culture shed its inhibitions to become a hub of innovation where players were free to be aggressive - even in the most important games. 

 Featuring exclusive interviews with players at the heart of the 2019 World Cup win, including Joe Root and Jason Roy; the 2022 World Cup victory, like Harry Brook, Sam Curran and Alex Hales; and double world champions including Moeen Ali, Adil Rashid, Chris Woakes and Mark Wood. With insight from coaches and administrators, including Trevor Bayliss, Rob Key, Matthew Mott and Andrew Strauss, it reveals how England changed their culture, attitude to unorthodoxy and approach to risk forever.

 White Hot examines this incredible journey in forensic detail. This is captivating reading for cricket fans - and anyone who wants to understand how a floundering team can become record-breakers.

The Inside Story of England Cricket's Double World Champions

This is a unique and compelling history guide to some of the classic grand prix tracks, paired with vintage images from the same viewpoint today to show how dramatically Formula One has changed - and not just the circuits, but all aspects of the sport from women drivers to team motorhomes.

Formula One: The Circuits Then &amp; Now is unique and compelling history and guide to some of the classic grand prix tracks. By pairing vintage images with the same viewpoint today, readers can see how dramatically Formula One has changed over the years, from the cavalier attitude to danger of the past, to the sophisticated modern sport we see today. In the 1950s, all that prevented cars from entering Monaco Harbour were some straw bales, there was no pitlane, and races weren’t stopped for burning cars. Today, Armco and catch-fencing line the harbourside, cranes winch cars to safety in seconds and Tecpro barriers protect the most dangerous corners. This book includes many historic aspects of F1 from the beautifully preserved pit buildings of Reims to the great temples of Speed at Monza and Spa-Francorchamps, three race venues from Formula 1’s debut season in 1950. At Monza, the lethal concrete banking has made way for a flat-out road track with chicanes, while Spa has cut the dangerous ‘Burnenville’ corner and moved its pit buildings and startline. Reims’ stopped hosting races in the 1960s and the infamous Muzon corner now lies under a farmer’s field. Other legendary circuits, such as the Nürburgring’s ‘Green Hell’, are pictured before they became too dangerous to race on, along with Pescara, an F1 race through the Abruzzo Hills, given special permission to run by the Italian government after the Mille Miglia tragedy of 1957. Compare the old Österreichring before it was cut down to size as the Red Bull Ring, and see Silverstone complete with the hangar that gave rise to the ‘Hangar Straight’. In the United States, there is the original Long Beach circuit, Watkins Glen with its flamboyant race starter, the Las Vegas grand prix that lasted only two years, along with F1’s ill-fated Indianapolis adventure.
