Formula: How Fraudsters, Geniuses & Fans Made F-1 a Global Phenomenon – Robinson & Clegg

Formula is an electrifying narrative that unveils the dramatic evolution of Formula 1—from its audacious beginnings in the 1950s to becoming a multi-billion-dollar global spectacle. Written by Wall Street Journal journalists Joshua Robinson and Jonathan Clegg, this Ukrainian edition peels back the glamor to reveal back-room politics, engineering genius, scandal, and high-stakes rivalry.

Through interviews, untold stories, and insider access to legends like Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen, Christian Horner, and Luca di Montezemolo, the authors chronicle the pressure-cooker world of motorsport. Whether it's cunning rule-bending, team espionage, or sheer innovation under fire, Formula reveals how the sport has thrived—and nearly collapsed—because of its relentless push toward speed and spectacle. This hardcover edition, published by Vivat in 2025, spans 352 pages of riveting, fast-paced storytelling and will resonate well beyond racing aficionados.
