Formula One is more popular than ever. The racing calendar expands every year, with more spectators flocking to Formula One circuits and more people watching behind their TV screens to watch every corner, every acceleration and every overtaking move.

But Formula One is much more than what is seen on TV. Formula One is mechanics at work competing for fractions of seconds during a pit stop. Formula One is made up of huge development departments looking for the key to success. Formula One is a commercial circus that entertains and impresses.

The coffee table book "Formula 1: By Those Who Were There," one of the most experienced figures in the Formula 1 caravan, reporter and photographer Peter Nygaard, takes readers behind the scenes. Nygaard has covered nearly two-thirds of the Formula One Grand Prix races held since Formula One's inception in 1950. Through his camera lens and interviews with some of the most pivotal figures, he tells the stories of the greatest drivers, the wildest dramas and the ongoing evolution of Formula One. Listen to some of the greatest figures who, from the car, the pit lane or on the track, experienced everything that makes Formula One what it is today.
