However, one thing has always remained a constant: the drivers and team s unrelenting ambition to be the best! From the origins of motor racing and the UK s first purpose built race track at Brooklands, all the way through to the advent of commercial advertising, computer aided technological advancements and the Formula One World Championship that we all know and love today, Racing Through Time: The History Of Grand Prix Racing is a must have for all fans of motor racing.

Customer Reviews

Grand Prix History
This is a reasonable DVD although a bit dated in content. It is value for money and will pass away an idle hour but don't expect anything great. Bit of a disappointment as I was expecting something more but for collectors of motor racing history there is plenty here.

great motor racing dvd
Racing Through Time - The History of the Grand Prix [DVD] this dvd is for some one who likes to remember how motor racing used to be. It brings back the thrill and excitment we used to have some of the sound and picture quality could be a bit better but what do we expect it's not hd.
What a great present hope i get some more in the series
