Maurice is down with the kids…

Guild member Maurice Hamilton is renowned for his many years reporting from the Formula One paddocks of the world but for his latest project has taken on likely his most challenging audience yet…

Maurice is producing a series of books called Racing Legends, aimed directly at 7 to 11 year-olds and each one telling the story of an individual driver.

Featuring illustrations by Kat Sims and building on the ever-widening appeal of F1 racing amongst the youngest fans, the books provide plenty of facts on each driver but lots of extra information – the one on Lando Norris for example also focusing on the history of McLaren and the Singapore Grand Prix.

Maurice’s latest two titles, on Fernando Alonso and Oscar Piastri, have just been published and he tells News Briefs that he is talking to publisher Pan Macmillan Paperbacks about the next two, having gained a positive response from an exacting readership!
