Warring team-mates, cheating engineers, striking drivers, fake crashes, and avoidable tragedies--Formula 1: The Controversies looks at the scandals that have rocked motor sport's top series.

Spanning 75 years of racing drama, this book explores the defining flashpoints of Formula One history, including Oscar Piastri's contested move to McLaren and the power struggles within Red Bull. You'll revisit bitter team-mate battles such as Prost vs Senna, cases of industrial espionage, race-fixing, and even world champions attempting to game the qualifying process at Monaco.

You'll discover:

  • Some of the craftiest attempts to bypass the tech rules from Benetton to Ferrari.
  • The spying revelations that almost bankrupted McLaren.
  • A scandal that ended the reign of F1's most controversial boss.
  • The furious team-mate battle at Ferrari, when neither driver finished the season.
  • A grand prix in Spain where teams fixed the crash barriers themselves.
  • A beloved German driver who died on the brink of world championship glory.
  • How the son of a world champion 'fixed' F1's first nightrace.
  • The modern-day tragedy of Jules Bianchi--and how it almost happened again...
  • Why James Hunt was wrong to blame Riccardo Patrese for a tragedy at Monza.
  • When Sebastian Vettel flouted team orders to get payback on his team-mate.
  • The years-long feud between two of the greatest drivers in F1 history.
  • How Ferrari's love of team orders spectacularly backfired (at a cost of $1m).
