Featuring the glass and steel Renaissance Center as its backdrop, the Detroit Grand Prix played host to Formula One when it was going through a rapidly evolving bout of change, the old guard like Niki Lauda and John Watson were on the verge of retirement, while young bucks like Ayrton Senna were just making their debut. Likewise new teams and new technologies were in their ascendancy with turbos and active suspensions taking over for ground effects and normally aspirated Cosworths.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Through this entire six-year period, photographer Roger Hart was there not only shooting the on-track action, but perhaps more importantly the many drivers and personalities that made the event\u2014and the period\u2014so unique. In \u201cPostcards from Detroit,\u201d Hart paints a rich and moody portrait of the Detroit Grand Prix using 103, high-quality, black-and-white photos. One of the really great things about this book is that the vast majority of the photos concentrate on candid shots of the drivers and crew. Hart has done a fantastic job of catching not just drivers like Rosberg, Senna, Lauda and Piquet, but catching them in such a way as to really give a flavor of their personalities. In this case, a picture (or a 103 pictures) really does replace a 1,000 words.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Available for US$24.95 (\u00a314.99) from the publisher, David Bull Publishing, at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bullpublishing.com\">www.bullpublishing.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Postcards from Detroit: Remembering Formula 1 in the Motor City By Roger Hart From 1982 to 1988 the United States Grand Prix played itself out on the streets of Motor City\u2014Detroit, Michigan.
