25 years since the introduction of the 3-litre Formula 1, Grand Prix cars have changed beyond recognition. This illustrated history spans the era from the 350 horsepower tube-framed cars to the 650 horsepower, computer designed, carbon composite cars of 1991, featuring factory blue-prints and cutaway drawings as well as photographs. This book takes the reader step-by-step through the triumphs and tribulations of the great terms and the not-so-great, combining the inside technical story of the cars with the human story of the men who devised, designed and developed them.
