"The most thrilling show- on Barth as Bernie Ecclestone
describes Formula 1 in his foreword, constantly brings forth
new heroes. Drivers who stand out because of their special
skills, great courage and willingness to push things to the limit
at all times. The 32 world champions since 1950 have all
reached the Olympian heights of Formula 1 in their own way.
It is they who put a face to this dynamic sport.
The spectrum
ranges from the charismatic maturity of a Juan Manuel Fangio
to the impetuous youthfulness of a Sebastian Vettel. Drawing
on their esperience of over five decades, Rainer W
Schlegelmilch and Hartmut Lehblink portray the giants of the
race track. Stunning photographs and well-informed texts
bring glorious triumphs like those of serial winner Michael
Schumacher to vibrant lite, as well as recalling the tragic
accidents of drivers like Jim Clark and Ayrton Senna.
Over a
span of more than sixty years you are right there amidst the
actio, in the pit lane or even in the cockpit of a car. You can
trace the development of the racing car, of the staging of
racing events and, last but by no means least, of the people
who have left their stamp on Formula 1. All this makes
"Formula 1 World Champions" a very special journey through
time.
