Here is the full, in-depth story of the 2009 FIA Formula One World Championship — one of the most unpredictable seasons for many years—from Brawn GP's fairytale 1-2 finish at the opening race in Australia and Jenson Button's dominant early-season form, through the mid-season excitement of six different winners in succession, to the final race of the year in Abu Dhabi with Jenson already crowned World Champion. The story is told by many of the drivers and team personnel involved, including Jenson Button, Rubens Barrichello, Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel, Ross Brawn, Stefano Domenicali, Christian Horner and Vijay Mallya.
Each race is chronicled with the aid of stunning colour photography, and the absorbing text allows the drivers, team principals and technical directors to throw new light on many of the season's headlines and incidents, presenting an exclusive insight into the on-track action and the race strategy for each round.
Clearly presented statistics, supported by colour graphics, provide a unique and comprehensive reference source for the future, covering practice, qualifying and the race itself for each of the 17 Grand Prix weekends.
Superb feature content, supported by fabulous photographs and technical illustrations, looks behind the scenes at the development of each of the 10 teams' cars over the year, while every driver who drove in a Grand Prix during 2009 gives an appraisal of his own season. A season overview provides insight into the year's leading stories, both on-track and off, while a 'round table' of paddock insiders discuss and debate the leading trends and topics of the 2009 season.
