The Top 100 Formula One Drivers of All Time Reviews

'I hope you enjoy the controversy as much as I have done.' -- Steve Cropley, Autocar
'So, get yourself a copy of Alan's book. Read it. Disagree with it. Throw it across the room every so often in disgust. Let a few minutes of reflection pass, then go and pick it up again and read some more. Then throw it at the cat. Then pick it up again, etc'. -- Autosport
'In this case the man is unusually well qualified on the grounds of experience and soundness of judgement, the mixture leavened with a sometimes mischievous sense of humour and the occasional burst of full-throttle subjectivity.' -- Guardian
'This is a great, fun book' -- Daily Telegraph
'A small but perfectly formed volume by the doyen of his trade' -- Guardian
'Alan Henry's judgment in these matters is pretty much at Supreme Court level' -- Autocar
'Enormous fun, backed up with great knowledge and personal experience ... a great, fun book' ' -- Daily Telegraph
'Already guaranteed to be the most contentious motorsport book of the year' -- Autosport
