Autosport on History of the Sport
I don't know if anyone saw last week's issue on the 1994 season guest edited by Damon Hill but if that period interests you, it's well worth trying to get hold of it.
This week (out tomorrow) it's all about Indycar - Kev has given me a brief run down of what's in the mag. Guest edited by Alex Zanardi Mansell on how he conquered America The 1992 F1 world champion looks back at his 1993 Indycar success, and the troubles that followed The rise and fall of Indycar How splits with the Indy 500 organisers helped create an iconic era, and then end it more than two decades later Ganassi becomes a US superteam The story of Chip Ganassi’s squad, as it became the dominant force in America during the 1990s Top CART drivers AUTOSPORT asked racers of the 1993-2001 era to pick out their top rivals, then added up the responses. Here’s who came out on top… Great Car: Penske PC23 The machine that beat Mansell and put Penske back on top, with a little help from a special engine for the Indy 500 F1 refugees in America A look at some of the ex-Formula 1 racers who tried their luck in the States, with varying success Memories of a golden era The drivers recall their best memories, and remember what it was like to driver the 1000bhp monsters Tributes to Moore, Krosnoff and Rodriguez Memories of the three racing talents who lost their lives during the period There will also be a couple of other bits online, including one comparing the CART days with current IndyCars |
