DISCOVER LANDO NORRIS' EXTRAORDINARY JOURNEY FROM HIS SOMERSET ROOTS TO WORLD CHAMPION CONTENDER

'Behind the glamour of the grid, beyond the roar of engines and the glare of sponsorship, lies a truth that is both sobering and fascinating: no one arrives at the summit alone.'

As Lando Norris looks set to become the new F1 World Champion, with George Russell joining him at the top table amongst a new generation of young, exciting and fast British drivers and Lewis Hamilton reaching the twilight of his extraordinary career that has seen him cement himself as one of Britain's greatest ever sportsmen, what is it about Britain's close relationship with motorsport that helps it continually produce the top talent in F1?

In one of the most exciting and closely-fought F1 Championships in recent years, these extraordinary talents have established themselves as two of the world's best with Lando Norris edging towards being the latest addition to the list of British F1 champions, and in F1 Generations, bestselling sportswriter Frank Worrall looks at the passing of the baton from Hamilton to Norris and Russell.

But, of course, the history of British F1 drivers didn't start with Hamilton. F1 Generations examines Hamilton, Norris and Russell in the context of the lineage of successful and trailblazing British drivers that came before them - from Stirling Moss, Jackie Stewart, Graham Hill and James Hunt to Damon Hill, David Coulthard and Jenson Button - to explore what it takes to reach the very pinnacle of motor sports and the legacy that you leave behind in the process.

This is the in-depth and ultimate look at British F1's past, present and bright future.
