Book - The Chequered Flag – 100 years of motor racing by Ivan Rendall
A superb coffee table book detailing motorsport from its inception in 1894 until publication in 1993.
Arguably the best book of its kind. Well written in great detail covering every aspect of the sport and beautifully illustrated with 100s of photographs.
In addition to the well-presented detailed information there is a ‘Results’ section providing fascinating reference material. The index enables easy lookup of all eras, events, drivers and marques.
Lots of information regarding this well-known and respected collectable book on line – just google the listing heading.
In spite of being well referenced many times, this book is in ‘as new’ condition.
A treasure for any motorsport enthusiast.
Would be a very nice Christmas present.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
