Autosport Magazine
Autosport is the UK's must-read motorsport magazine! It is revered by fans and industry personnel alike as the ultimate source of motorsport news and analysis.
AUTOSPORT's traditional Christmas double issue features an in-depth review of the 2011 Formula 1 season, a year in which new standards were set and long-standing records were broken. Not to mention the hundreds of overtaking moves race fans crave. In our 60-page grand prix pull-out, you'll find:
• A season overview in which Mark Hughes analyses the year's key themes.
• Our top 10 drivers of the year. And, yes, all three Brits make the cut.
• The F1 team principals' top 10.
• David Coulthard's take on the all the good - and bad - bits of the 19-race season.
• Adrian Newey's appraisal of his latest baby, the Red Bull RB7, as revealed to Edd Straw.
• A one-to-one with Pat Fry, the Briton charged with returning Scuderia Ferrari to its glory days.
• A post-season catch-up with Felipe Massa, who tells Adam Cooper that he believes he can win again.
• A full resume of Lewis Hamilton's turbulent season, featuring the good (three wins), the bad (private life distractions) and the ugly (all those collisions).
• Reflections and revelations from Michael Schumacher on his motivation and desire to win again after the second season of his comeback tour.
• The (technical) truth behind Renault's fall from grace after such a strong start. And it's not all hot air.
• Team-by-team analysis from Mark Hughes and Gary Anderson.
• All the relevant statistics involving the 28 drivers, 12 teams and 19 grands prix.
