Forza, Ferrari! (1950-51) The Front-Engined Finale (1952-59) Clark's Dark Golden Age (1960-68) The Stewart Dominance (1969-73) The Hunt-Lauda Epoch (1973-79) Three Titans: Prost, Mansell and Senna (1981-93) The Schumacher Era (1994-2006) New Heights: Hamilton and The Wing (2007 onwards) This photographic history of Silverstone and Formula 1 should appeal to motor racing fans everywhere, as it neatly captures the essence of what the highest level of a most demanding sport has meant to this very special venue.
