Rivalries for the ages in Grand Prix racing!

Alan Henry's portraits of the great one-on-one rivalries that have characterized F1 over the decades is a probing look at what drives the drivers themselves. It begins with the extraordinary relationship that developed between the veteran Fangio and the young Moss when both drove for the Mercedes-Benz factory team in 1955, and goes on to cover Clark and Hill, Lauda and Hunt, Villeneuve and Pironi, Schumacher and Damon Hill, and many others.
