| book description |

Formula 1 encapsulates our love affair with the car, our obsession with speed, and our insatiable desire to win. Its blend of glamour, worldwide reach, and the intrigue of power politics makes it a seductive concoction for fans around the globe. Now, as the race-count climbs to an astonishing 1,125 at the end of 2024, Formula 1's 75th season provides the perfect opportunity to bring the story bang up to date and explore ‘The Liberty Years’, perhaps the most transformative period for Formula 1 technically, commercially, and philosophically: is it sport or entertainment? In late 2016, Liberty Media Corporation, a prominent American owned company with a business focus in media, communications and entertainment, bid to acquire the commercial rights for Formula 1. It marked the beginning of a new era and is the most far-reaching expression of US involvement and influence on the sport to date, but by no means the first. This edition includes an additional focus on the many significant contributions from US drivers, teams, circuits, suppliers and sponsors from 1950 to the present day. The United States has left an indelible mark on Formula 1, shaping its trajectory and contributing to its status as ‘The Pinnacle of Motorsport’. Join this celebration of 75 years of Formula 1: The fastest sport on the planet.
