Description
Computer generated profiles of the most famous and legendary Formula 1 single-seaters from 1966, the year when a new engine capacity regulation was approved. This coincided with the most important features we can still see in the cars of today, including wings, sponsors, slick tires, and carbon-fiber chassis. All of them are illustrated in this book, depicting milestones such as the Lotuses 49, 72, 79, Renault RS01, winners like the Ferraris "T" series, McLaren MP4 from 1988, Shumacher's Ferrari, original ideas like the Tyrrell P34 and other curiosities. Despite being focused on the cars, the book also examines the designers, team-managers and drivers. AUTHOR: Marcel Correa has been a racing enthusiast since the early years of his childhood. After graduating with degrees in industrial design in his native Uruguay and automotive design in Italy he developed transport, medical, graphic and corporate design projects. Looking for fresh challenges, he established his new life in Barcelona, Spain.
