This was a “must buy” for me after I enjoyed the original Grand Prix Winning Colours book so much and it is safe to say it isn’t a disappointment in anyway. As expected the illustrations are fantastic and help to show the changes in the vehicles over the different eras. Highly recommend for anyone who likes motorsport!

I was about to buy this book and realised it was released 2 months before Le Mans 2023 and missed the 100th year since the running of Le Mans! So it also misses the return of Ferrari factory racing to Le Mans after 50 years, and Ferraris overall win and epic fairy tale achievement in the new hyper car category!!! Why on earth didn’t they compile, edit and release the book after Le Mans 2023? It doesn’t make sense, a truly golden opportunity missed.
