Grand Prix - Fascination Formula 1


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).

The LMP1 class saw the first competition between the new diesel engined Peugeot 908 prototype and the diesel Audi R10 TDI (which won already in 2006). However, I have not seen the movie yet… Once I saw it, more comments and screenshots will be added as usual.

Mercedes back to Le Mans by 2012?


The brand new Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 will have its first debut on a race track in 2011 at the 24h of Dubai. But the main focus to get the victory is set for the 24h of Nürburgring 2011.

Mercedes did not decline that the GT3 could be modified into a GT2 racer being compliant to the ACO Le Mans regulations… First rumors tell that after 60 years of Mercedes’ double victory at Le Mans 1952 with the Mercedes 300SL, Mercedes will return back to Le Mans in 2012 and strive for the GT class win to celebrate the 60th anniversary!
