"An opulent art book with terrific photography in a manner of speaking: an encyclopedia that reaches maximum speeds." Der Spiegel"
One of the most sought after photographers in Formula 1, Rainer Schelgelmilch began his career in 1964 when he opened his own studio in Franfurt. Working primarily in advertising photography at the time, Schelgelmilch began documenting the races he attended as a hobby. Today, he systematically attends every event on the racing circuit and, having pioneered many techniques of sports photography himself, is an unquestionable authority in the field.
