History of Formula 1

Steeped in history and tradition, Formula 1 is the highest class of auto racing for single-seater cars around the world. While the series has roots in events dating back to the 1920s and 1930s, the first F1 race was the 1946 Turin Grand Prix. However, the World Drivers’ Championship wasn’t ratified until 1947, with the first world championship event taking place at Silverstone Circuit in 1950.

British dominance in Formula 1

Giuseppe Farina won the first championship, but the early days of the sport are synonymous with Juan Manuel Fangio, who won five titles in the 1950s. Although Stirling Moss was successful despite never claiming top prize, it ushered in a period of British dominance with the likes of Mike Hawthorn, Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, John Surtees and Graham Hill all winning championships from 1958 to 1974.

F1 in the 80s: modern but dangerous

The 1970s saw the sport’s popularity take off with teams like Ferrari, McLaren, Lotus and drivers like Emerson Fittipaldi, Niki Lauda, James Hunt and Mario Andretti take the sport to heights not seen before. Technological advancements like active suspension, semi-automatic gearboxes and traction control exploded in the 1980s, though the dangers of the sport never diminished as shown by names like Gilles Villeneuve, Elio de Angelis, Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna all passing away after accidents on the track.

Formula 1 today

Senna’s rivalry with Alain Prost in the late 80s into the early 90s galvanized the sport, while stars like Michael Schumacher, Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton have helped F1 become the global powerhouse it is today.

Following Mercedes' dominance, Max Verstappen and Red Bull finally bucked the trend by claiming World Championships in 2021 and 2022. Can Verstappen make it a hattrick of Drivers' Championships in 2023?
