About the Book:
McLaren’s F1 rivals had a sour taste in their mouths at the end of last season, thanks to the domination of the Silver Arrows driven by Mika Hakkinen and David Coulthard.
During the winter, more than ever before, the opposition – led by Ferrari – have been searching for an answer. At Silverstone, Jerez, Mugello and Fiorano teams have pounded round, amassing thousands of kilometres in order to confront their Mercedes powered enemy. And the result is the most open F1 season for a long time.
Jordan leads a cluster of fresh, ambitious teams keen to upset the establishment and to knock traditional pace-setters Williams, McLaren, Ferrari and Benetton off their perch.
To help you get to grips with the world of F1 as it heads into the new millennium, F1 writers Patrick Camus and Jean-Michel Desnoues have combined with Vandystadt photographer Jean-Marc Loubat to paint a comprehensive picture of the 16 races that make up the 1999 season. It just could be the most exciting the sport has ever known.
