Vroom! Start your engines and get ready for the fastest history
lesson ever! Have you ever watched a race car zoom by and
wondered, how did Formula 1 begin? Join Mira and Finn as they hit
the gas on the incredible history of the world's most exciting
motorsport! We travel all the way back to 1906 for the very first
Grand Prix in France, where cars bumped and bounced down dirt
roads at a dizzying 100 miles per hour! Fast forward to 1950 in
England, and the modern World Championship is born! Discover how
these racing machines changed from heavy metal clunkers to
super-sleek rockets that can reach over 230 miles per hour today!
We will meet legendary drivers who pushed the limits of speed,
like Juan Manuel Fangio, Niki Lauda, Ayrton Senna, and Michael
Schumacher. You will learn all about the amazing engineering,
lightning-fast pit stops, and the thrilling rivalries on the
track. Plus, find out a surprising secret: how pushing cars to
the absolute limit in dangerous races actually helped make the
normal cars we ride in today much safer! Buckle up, it is going
to be a wild ride!
