Overview
It's lights out and away we go! Young fans of Formula 1 racing will find themselves in pole position after reading this must-have guide to the history of one of the most popular sports in the world.
In Formula 1 racing, drivers from across the world compete in racing unique, single-seater vehicles. Although F1 might seem like a hot new trend in the world of sports, the origins of auto racing go back all the way to the 1890s, shortly after the invention of the car! It wasn't until 1947 that the official Formula 1 league was created as a way to gather the strongest racers in the world into one group.
Today, there are eleven different racing teams that participate in the races, including McLaren and Ferrari. In the 2026 Formula 1 season, there were twenty-four different races for drivers to enter. Grand prix races such as the Monaco Grand Prix are some of the most popular sporting events in the world, and many of them have been around for nearly a century! This book will help young readers get to know some of F1's most popular athletes, including Lewis Hamilton, Lando Norris, Michael Schumacher, Ayrton Senna, and more.
