Formule 1 - Rytíři rizika – Gurian Roberto (2026)

This book offers an informed look into the extraordinary world of Formula 1 and the lives of forty-six fearless drivers, from Tazio Nuvolari and Juan Manuel Fangio through Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda, Alain Prost, Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher to current stars Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen. It is no surprise that most of the drivers featured are no longer alive, and many met a tragic death. They were called the knights of risk: fearless heroes who put their lives on the line every time they took the wheel, with one goal—to drive as fast as possible and win. From the many men who raced and risked everything, the author has chosen those with the greatest human depth, along with others whose stories deserve to be told. He celebrates the passion, courage and skill that define Formula 1’s participants and pays tribute to them. This is not merely a list of achievements, but a collection of engaging stories accompanied by numerous unique photographs. Long-time fans and newcomers alike can learn about the history and legendary heroes of the past in the premier discipline of motor sport they follow with enthusiasm, perhaps inspiring them to explore this world more deeply.
