Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Roger Smith is a lifetime fan and student of Formula 1, and has attended over 100 F1 races across five continents. Prior to becoming an author, Roger worked for a leading business information company. His successful 40-year career spanned several international roles and his research findings were published throughout Europe.

Following retirement from business life, Roger pursued his aspiration to write. His first book, Analysing Formula 1, published in 2008, was a stepping stone to a more ambitious project. Inspired by a gap on his own personal F1 bookshelf, he set out to create a single volume incorporating an informative historical storyline race-by-race. Formula 1: All The Races, first published in 2012, sold out within four months and was shortlisted for the British Sports Book Awards. To celebrate 75 years of F1, the fifth edition in the series is set to bring the F1 story bang up to date.

Roger lives in Oxford and Chichester with his wife, and is a member of The Guild of Motoring Writers.
