Product description
An exceptional iconography proposed for the most prestigious F1 Grand Prix of the 1962 season, three Formula Junior races finally revealed thanks to previously unpublished documents, the presence of Clark, Brabham, Gurney, McLaren, G. Hill, P. Hill, Surtees, Bandini, Siffert and Trintignant at the wheel of the legendary Ferrari, Cooper, Lotus, Porsche, BRM and Lola; the debut of the iconic Lotus 25 with a monocoque chassis; these are some ingredients of the rich menu you will find in 1962 – Week-end à Monaco.
The story of a race, a race in the history. This book is part of a new series of publications revealing the “stills” of the most important films in motor racing history.
The aim is to take an in-depth look at a particular weekend and event, the choice of which depends above all on the authors’ ability to collect documentation that is as original and complete as possible: photos, plans, programs, drawings, reports and personal testimonies.
All the specialities of the sport will be covered: F1, F2, F3, FJ, FF, sport-prototypes, GT, touring, marque trophies, rallies, etc. If the programme includes other events of a different nature (motorcycling, cycling, etc.), these are reported with the same care and precision.
The considerable preparatory work required to produce such works means that each author had to rely on other contributors to make use of personal networks and rare documentary sources. It is thanks to their remarkable spirit of collaboration that this project has been possible.
