From the inaugural race at Silverstone in 1950 to today, F1 has hosted 1,131 Grand Prix events, crowned 34 World Champions, and delivered countless unforgettable moments.
The 100 Greatest Races captures the essence of F1’s unparalleled legacy. This exhilarating collection dives into the most iconic battles, from edge-of-your-seat photo finishes and masterful drives in the rain to heroic comebacks and shocking upsets. Each race is a tribute to the courage, precision, and brilliance that define the sport.
Penned by leading F1 experts Roger Smith and Kevin Turner, with a foreword by former F1 driver and expert pundit Karun Chandhok, this unofficial chronicle curated by experts presents the ultimate top 100 races. Using a meticulous rating system, the authors sift through over 1,000 Grand Prix events, organizing them into ten captivating themes. Each chapter crowns its top three races before culminating in the definitive ranking of Formula 1’s all-time greatest.
Enriched with breathtaking photography and compelling narratives, The 100 Greatest Races takes fans on a thrilling journey through the highs, lows, and timeless magic of F1. Relive the glory, feel the passion, and celebrate the races that have shaped the sport into the global phenomenon it is today.
Roger Smith is a lifetime fan and student of Formula 1, and has attended over 100 F1 races across five continents. Prior to becoming an author, Roger worked for a leading business information company. His successful 40-year career spanned several international roles and his research findings were published throughout Europe.
Following retirement from business life, Roger pursued his aspiration to write. His first book, Analysing Formula 1, published in 2008, was a stepping stone to a more ambitious project. Inspired by a gap on his own personal F1 bookshelf, he set out to create a single volume incorporating an informative historical storyline race-by-race. Formula 1: All The Races, first published in 2012, sold out within four months and was shortlisted for the British Sports Book Awards. To celebrate 75 years of F1, the fifth edition in the series is set to bring the F1 story bang up to date. Roger lives in Oxford and Chichester with his wife, and is a member of The Guild of Motoring Writers.
Kevin Turner is Autosport’s Chief Editor. While studying History at the University of York, Kevin began covering UK club events as a freelance reporter for Autosport and Motorsport News. He joined the Autosport staff as Editorial Assistant on the magazine in 2006, winning what is now known as the Motorsport UK Young Journalist of the Year Award. He became National Editor in 2008 and over the next few seasons covered a range of international events, including the Le Mans 24 Hours, as well as the British Touring Car Championship and British GT. Kevin became Features Editor before switching to edit Motorsport News in 2014.
He returned to Autosport in 2016 to become editor of the magazine, a dream job that is still part of his role. He became Chief Editor in 2020, helping to plan content for autosport.com and Autosport’s podcast as well as seeing the magazine through the coronavirus pandemic. Kevin also led work on the special publication celebrating 70 years of Autosport and has been a judge on the Aston Martin Autosport BRDC Young Driver Award, formerly known as the McLaren Autosport BRDC Award, since 2008. He lives in Warboys with his wife and two children.
