The Changing Worlds of Formula One
From Italy to India, David Goldblatt examines the ever changing face of Formula One.
At the Monza Circuit in Northern Italy, David discovers the triumphs, tragedies and the nostalgic old style glamour of a past motor racing era in a town that has been hosting the Italian Grand Prix since long before the arrival of Formula One.
He also visits the embryonic circuit on the outskirts of Delhi - which in October 2011 - will become Formula One's latest hi-tech venue.
In the ever evolving world of motor sport he questions whether Europe will be able to financially support the sport in the future and whether it matters that a country such as India, with a negligible history of motor sports, has been chosen to host Formula One?
Part One
David begins his journey in Italy, the home of the Grand Prix, where motor racing fans come from every corner of the world looking for speed and adrenalin.
He also visits the home of Ferrari, the ultimate racing car.
