Review

Following Formula One without the Official ITV F1 Grand Prix Guide 1999 is like motor racing without Murray Walker.

It's essential reading for the armchair or travelling fan and is packed from cover to cover with glossy action-packed photographs, of everyone who is anyone, in the glamorous global pit-lane.

Whether you are a newcomer to the sport or a veteran clocking up those miles, Bruce Jones puts you on the right track.

Jones has again produced a winner that will keep you going from the formation lap all the way to the finish line at the end of the season. He weaves his way along the line-ups, mapping out the results and introducing the cast of each team, in an amusing and informative manner.

The photographs capture the mood of each circuit and give the reader a real feel for the venue without you having the leave the comforts of your home.

The review of the season is as slick as a well-drilled pit-stop and his technical insight makes you believe you could probably play your part in one!

If you crave statistics, all the records are logged and accompanied by nostalgic photos that will really put you in the picture. Formula One teams watch many millions go up in smoke, literally, every year, but for only a few pounds you'll get more mileage out of the book than some back-markers manage for the investment and faith put in them.
