The book contains the most famous photos of photographer Rainer W. Schlegelmilch and covers about 25 years of Formula 1. The texts in the book have been written by Hartmut Lehbrink while the preface has been authored by Ayrton Senna.

Schlegelmilch’s signature in his photos is that special ‘panning’ technique which is very unique and most probably extremely difficult to do.

The book is divided in chapters as follows:
- Grand Prix 1969 – 1993
- The Drivers 1993 – 1969
- Design
- Technology
- Tyres
- Faces / Helmets
- Bosses
- Advertising
- Women
- Fans
- Snapshots

Soon a new book will be released by Schlegelmilch: Golden Age Formula 1 published by TeNeues (end of 2010).
