Chris Witty Author

Chris Witty was a motor racing journalist for much of the period covered by this book, first with Motoring News, then Autosport, and Formula 2 was the focus of his reporting. From 1980 he moved into public relations and marketing, first with the Toleman Group during the period in which it raced in Formula 2 and ran Ayrton Senna in its Formula 1 team. Following a spell with Richard Branson's Virgin Group, he set up his own consultancy business, Chris Witty Associates, to handle marketing, sponsorship and media activities. Jutta Fausel started photographing Formula 2 in 1967 in her native Germany but soon went to races all over Europe. As such, she has a Formula 2 photo archive of unrivalled depth and quality, with an emphasis on the more unusual images, including intimate behind-the-scenes shots.
