Year-by-year treatment covers each season in fascinating depth,
running through the teams - and their various cars - in order of
importance. Over 600 photos from the superb archives of Motorsport
Images show every type of car raced by every team and driver,
presenting a comprehensive survey of all participants. The
formative years of the 1950s are explored in this next instalment
of Evro's decade-by-decade series covering all Formula 1 cars and
teams. When the World Championship was first held in 1950, red
Italian cars predominated, from Alfa Romeo, Ferrari and Maserati,
and continued to do so for much of the period. But by the time the
decade closed, green British cars were in their ascendancy, first
Vanwall and then rear-engined Cooper playing the starring roles,
and BRM and Lotus having walk-on parts. As for drivers, one stood
out above the others, Argentine Juan Manuel Fangio becoming World
Champion five times. Much of the fascination of this era also lies
in its numerous privateers and also-rans, all of which receive
their due coverage in this completist work.
