Product description
The nineteen seventies were a fascinating period in the history of Formula One, as many of the technical details we take for granted on a modern Grand Prix car were invented then.
It is during this period that the author, Frans van de Camp, started visiting Grand Prix races, taking numerous photographs, which are now published for the first time.
As Grand Prix Cars in Camera covers all the marques that participated in Formula One racing from 1973 to 1980, the book provides a broad picture of the development of the Grand Prix car in that era.
After the introduction, the history of each make is described in separate chapters.
There is also a good deal of technical information, regarding chassis numbers, engines, suspension, aerodynamics etc. so the reader gets a broad view of the development of the Grand Prix car in that era.
