This is actually not a bad book. If you don't know much about Formula 1, this book will inform you. Very informative yet simple and easy reading.

This review is from: Formula One Racing for Dummies (Paperback)
At one level, the book is a good basic summary of F1 racing -- the cars, history, tracks, teams and drivers, tips on attending a race, and some of the strategies involved. If you're a F1 junkie like I am, its all good.
More objectively though, the book is dated... with info current up to about 2003/04, which is many respects is ancient history for F1 (new different changed teams/drivers/tracks/rules now), so if I was just getting into F1 as a viewer, this book would be really confusing since so much of the info is out of date.

I TEACH ENGLISH EACH WEEK TO TWO RACE CAR DRIVERS. ONE IS A FORMULA RACE DRIVER AND THE OTHER IS A SUPER GT RACE DRIVER. AS I AM A NOVICE AT RACING I PURCHASED THIS BOOK AND FOUND IT FILLED WITH SO MUCH INFORMATION COMPLETELY NEW TO ME. IT IS AN ENGLISH LESSON AND THE DRIVERS SMILE WHEN I QUESTION THINGS I DON'T UNDERSTAND. I AM INVITED TO THE MACAU GRAND PRIX AND WILL BE USING MY DUMMIES BOOK TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING. HOWEVER AS A TEXT FOR LEARNING ENGLISH IT IS FAR TOO COMPLICATED EXCEPT FOR THE PROFESSIONAL DRIVERS WHO LIVE THEIR LIVES RACING. IT IS A CASE OF THE STUDENTS TEACHING THE TEACHER SO I NEED RACING DUMMIES FOR SURVIVAL.
