Advantages: Great photography Disadvantages: Not so great content
F1 Racing Magazine is, you guessed it, a magazine devoted to Formula 1. It’s a monthly magazine priced at £3.50 an issue, which is a little expensive compared to some of the more general motor sport magazines, but to me isn’t too bad. That said, other than this magazine, the only other mags I buy are computer related ones, which often come in at around £5 each.
For your £3.50 you get a reasonable read - Jenson Button and James Allen are both columnists, ... ...‘Turbo Era’ and came to F1 in the early 90s. I saw the death of many smaller teams, but never got to see them in their prime. I want to learn more about the times I missed, and to read about it in a magazine feels more real than reading a ’history of F1’ book.
Back in to the current day, we have race previews, race reports, and circuit overviews. The tourist information in the circuit overview may be of some use if you plan to go to see the race, ...

Advantages: Cheap at 3-50 a month, avaliable all over the world Disadvantages: the last few months have been a Michael Scumacher whitewash of the front page
...know instantly that my Monthly F1 racing magazine has arrived. 160 pages of colourful news, expert interviews and global speculation, all wrapped up in a glosy and colourful package. Top photographers from around the world bring fantastic pictures, and an expert panel of editors and reporters, including Murray Walker, James Allen, Damon Hill,Matt Bishop, and driver reviews from Jenson Button, Rubens Barrichello, and Alex Wurz to name but a few.
... ...clear and humourous at times way. A full, in depth report with statistics from all the Grand prix races, as well as future stars, competitions and news from the whole grid. Alot of magazines will tend to focus just on the battle at thje front, The Ferrari`s and Mclarens but even Minardi and Arrows get there fair share of coverage in what is an often amusing but always informative magazine which helps to make sense of a confusing world that is F1. ...

Advantages: Amazing photography and plenty of content Disadvantages: Only once a month
...in performance a little better. F1 Racing does some great interviews not only with the Drivers but also with Key staff from within formula one and these really give a great insight into the world of F1 where most questions are asked and answered. There are also regular reader questions which you can email in and your questions will be asked to the stars of the sport. Each issue during the season includes all the action from the races just gone and ... ...by such times as when F1 Racing discovered the extra pedal in the Mclaren car in 1998 It was one of F1 Racings photographers that not only managed to thrust his camera into the stopped cars cockpit but take enough photos to prove the 3rd pedal and therefore out Mclaren's rear braking system which went on to be banned.
I am a subscriber to the magazine and could not bear to miss an issue. It arrives bang on time every month on the door mat and always ...

Advantages: A detailed insight from the people that know it best. Disadvantages: A little expensive and lacking in ideas.
When you first pick up the magazine, you know you're in for a treat. The glossy cover is so inviting, with catchy article titles and the promise of some interesting gossip.
The first few pages are some amazing photography capturing the essence of Formula 1 - the beauty of the machines and the quality of the speed. But once you get past that, there is very little to actually keep you reading.
There are plenty of expert columns which are very interesting. ... ...the psyche of one of the latest drivers, mechanics, team principals. And there's probably an exclusive look at some of the latest technology.
All well and good, but trust me on this, you have got to be a real die-hard fan to get the most from this magazine. It's not simple and it's not easy. It's worth it if you stick with it and learn as you go, but for just dipping in and out of and for keeping up with the latest news, it's not the best. ...

Nothing can replicate the bone-shaking, gut-churning, frankly terrifying thrill of driving ... more
an F1 car. So stop dreaming and take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity to scream around a racetrack in a genuine ex-F1 machine. As Murray might yell, un-be-lieve-able!
