Product Description

Few sports enjoy the drama, glamour and glitz in the way F1 motor racing does. Some of the world's most sophisticated pieces of automotive engineering are pushed to - and sometimes beyond - the absolute limit by drivers in their quest for glory. "The ITV Sport Guide Grand Prix 2007" not only sets up the reader for the season ahead with detailed examinations of the teams and drivers, and the tracks where the races are staged, but also looks back at the season just completed, highlights changes to the rules and regulations and major talking points. Complementing the text are photographs, maps, diagrams, facts, stats, a comprehensive records section and a fill-in guide for the reader to complete as the season progresses, all adding to the Formula One experience.

Customer Reviews

Out of Date Already
I was bought one of these guides as a present. It contains all the teams and drivers entering 2009 but its out of date already. It has Sato at Toro Rosso but he hadn't been signed and the seat went to Bourdais anyway, and Honda are called Team X because Brawn GP hadn't been announced. They'd also put Bruno Senna in the driving seat.

The reviews of the circuits are mediocre and the review of last year is brief. A look at the upcoming Abu Dhabi circuit is interesting but you can get all the pictures and layouts on the internet anyway.

Overpriced, outdated and airy - just wait for the end of year reviews instead if you want to buy memento's

Great handbook for F1 fans
All the tracks, teams, drivers, a great read for the armchair F1 fan. A very small amount of info may be superseded by the time the book gets to press, but overall a great handbook.
