Just superb book about Ferrari F1 cars from the beginning to the end of season 2002. An unusual format of 12.5cm x 12.5cm compromises the picture size somewhat, but the amount of quality pictures (well over 1000 color pictures + some in b/w) and very low price compensates this totally. There's also nice brief decribtion of every season contested.
If you already own Schlegelmilch's earlier Ferrari F1 book (The big Könemann book), I would still recommend to buy this. The book has much more pictures than the Könemann book (about 3-4 times more). Over the 792 pages of this book, about 95% of the surface aree is filled with photos, so its like a photo album.
There are sections for race photography by year, drivers, personnel, aerodynamics of the cars, and technology of the cars (engine, gerabox, suspension).
I guess no other Ferrari F1 book has so many pictures.

More than just a collection of truly exquisite pictures, this large-format volume -- in English, German and French -- covers each car, driver and season of Scuderia Ferrari's fabled GP history, including today's Maranello team assembled by Ferrari boss Luca di Montezemelo. As Niki Lauda's forward aptly states, Schlegelmilch's photography shows a "consistency of performance linked with the Ferrari virtues of brilliance and a finely-tuned sense of aesthetics." At nearly 350 pages (with several appendices), Ferrari F1 is a tour de force for Tifosi everywhere.
