Synopsis :

Only the very best make it to the top. Since 1950, just 34 drivers have earned the title of Formula One World Champion, joining an elite group that has shaped the history of motorsport. In Formula One: The Champions, legendary F1 commentator Maurice Hamilton and award-winning photographers Bernard and Paul-Henri Cahier present an unparalleled tribute to the greatest drivers of all time.

This book offers in-depth profiles of every F1 World Champion, revealing the triumphs, rivalries, and defining moments that turned these drivers into legends. Each chapter is packed with: 

• Expertly written career overviews, highlighting the risks and rivalries that made these champions stand out. 
• Stunning photography that brings their victories, personal moments, and defining races to life. 
• Rare and intimate interviews, including conversations with icons like James Hunt, Ayrton Senna, and Niki Lauda. 
• Exclusive quotes from modern F1 stars, including Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton, and Nico Rosberg. 
• A foreword by Bernie Ecclestone, offering a unique perspective on the evolution of the sport.

But who is the greatest F1 driver of all time? Fans and experts have debated this question for decades, but one thing is certain; every champion has delivered moments of pure brilliance, unmatched skill, and fearless determination. Formula One: The Champions is the ultimate collector’s edition, perfect for longtime F1 fans, new enthusiasts, and anyone fascinated by the pursuit of greatness.

À propos des auteurs: Maurice Hamilton has been part of the Formula One scene since 1977 and was the Observer's motor racing correspondent for 20 years. He has written more than 20 books as well as commentating on Formula One for BBC Radio. He is now actively involved with the online community on Twitter and writes several blogs whilst continuing to write books about racing.

The Cahier Archive is the only photographic collection covering the history of the Formula One Championship to have remained in the hands of its original authors. Two photographers have built this archive: Bernard Cahier and his son Paul-Henri, giving the collection two very different styles. Bernard was a reporter and had the gift to make people truly live events through his pictures. Paul-Henri, on the other hand, has always leaned towards an artistic approach to photography. The common ground of their photos though, is that they always go beyond the illustrative dimension.

Compiled and edited by a team of leading Formula One journalists, and featuring written contributions from drivers, team principals and technical directors.
