Book Reviews of Autocourse 2007-2008: The World's Leading Grand Prix Annual (Autocourse)
Book Review: Hamilton Love Fest
Summary: 3 Stars
I look forward to Autocourse every year. My first hint that something wasn't quite right, was a pre-production photo I saw of the cover: Lewis Hamilton/McLaren. This was after Kimi Raikkonnen already won the WDC.
So I order anyway. The copy I received had a different cover, appropriate to the World Champion. But almost every single race report begins with ecstatic ravings about Lewis Hamilton, whether he won the race or not.
Even worse, Autocourse gave Hamilton the #1 driver position in the annual top ten rating! The guy blew the championship! Kimi fought hard and won it, yet he gets #2 status.
Alonso, the reigning WDC is treated as an afterthought throughout.
Buy it for the history, but you can't overlook the blatant favoritism throughout this issue. Not balanced reporting at all.
Summary of Autocourse 2007-2008: The World's Leading Grand Prix Annual (Autocourse)
Now in its 57th year, this world famous motorsport annual is regarded as the definitive account of the Formula 1 season. Edited by leading F1 journalist Alan Henry, it has been long established as a genuine collectors item, and has an unrivalled heritage which is recognized by the entire motorsport community - and number f1 luminaries Jackie Stewart, Murray Walker and Ron Dennis as devotees. This sumptuous book has detailed race-by-race vibrant features, comprehensive statistics, technical illustrations and the best photography in the sport. Since 1951 it has, quite simply, been the must-have publication for all serious Formula 1 fans.
This authoritative annual on Grand Prix racing is in its 47th year of publication. The 1997-98 volume includes a foreword by the 1997 title winner Jacques Villeneuve, the first driver to win the championship after just two full seasons of Grand Prix racing. As usual, this large, attractive volume is packed with color photos, statistics, bios, commentary from the experts, and analyses of the year's races.
