The title of Roger Smith's pocket-size treasure trove of statistics implies that each Top Ten will be preceded by superlatives such as biggest, longest, fastest or best. But that is another intriguing feature of the Top Ten genre. It works just as well for the flip-side: smallest, shortest, slowest, even the worst!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is this counterpoint dimension — exploring failure alongside success, the ordinary balanced by the extraordinary, the weird against the wondrous — that gives such depth and richness. It is only by appreciating the struggles of the many that the conquest by the few may be fully admired.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFollowing the success of his first book, Analysing Formula 1, Roger Smith again combines his diagnostic dexterity with his Formula 1 fervour to bring new ideas and insights.\u003c\/strong\u003e An international business information expert in his professional life, Roger has ardently studied Grand Prix racing and attended innumerable Formula 1 races over more than five decades.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eOther Details\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePublisher Code:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eH4571\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eISBN 10:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eISBN 13:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e9781844255719\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePublished:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e2008\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e130x205mm\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePages:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e192\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eIllustrations:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eHard Bound, Colour and b\/w ill\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eBarcode:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e9781844255719\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Haynes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47627972247772,"sku":"9781844255719","price":37.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/8297\/3404\/files\/b11899b_the_book_formula_1_top_tens__65086.1339460456.1280.1280.jpg?v=1772088494","url":"https:\/\/automotobookshop.com.au\/products\/the-book-of-formula-1-top-tens","provider":"Automoto Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
