With Flying Colours: The Pirelli Album Of Motor Sport

Shows top cars and drivers, offers an historical survey of the sport of automobile racing, and offers profiles of the most important races

This beautiful oversized book brings to vivid life the color, excitement, and glamour of European motor sport. The sheer power of the photographs will entrance race fans of any stripe. From the first race to the gleaming precision engineering miracle that is a Formula I Grand Prix car, the authors have gathered a truly remarkable collection of photos and matched them with an almost poetic narrative to celebrate the history of motor racing. Most of the early photos have come from the archives of the Pirelli Tire Company. Essential for comprehensive racing collections; for photography collections as well.
