Who won the first Daytona 500? Fans still debate whether it was midwestern champion Johnny Beauchamp, declared the victor at the finish line, or longtime NASCAR driver Lee Petty, declared the official winner a few days after the race.

He uses this information and his deep knowledge of the sport as it worked then to determine what probably happened. But he also tells a much bigger story.

"Формулой-1" правят визуальные образы: гаснут огни стартового светофора, и яркие машины отправляются нарезать круги по живописным трассам; взмах клетчатого флага, и победитель становится героем на все времена, вроде Михаэля Шумахера, Айртона Сенны или Ники Лауды - человеком, олицетворяющим "королеву автоспорта". Эти небожители порой затмевают лучами своей славы пилотов, чьи истории подчас не менее знаменательны и драматичны, полны трагедий и триумфов. Пилотов, которые по праву могут считаться легендарными.

Born poor—dirt poor—with no running water, no electricity, he was the definition of the everyman hero, earning the title 'King of the Roads' in what must be considered one of the world's most extreme sports—motorcycle road racing. And as well as being voted Northern Ireland's greatest ever sportsman, he remains the most loved and most successful road racer of all time.

Speedway was a prime-time sport in the 1970s and 1980s. Its most successful riders were household names, and events would be held in venues as large as Wembley Stadium, attracting tens of thousands of spectators. In a time of only three terrestrial TV channels in the UK, you were guaranteed to find Speedway racing on one of them on a Saturday afternoon. At one point, London alone was home to 11 separate clubs. Today it has none. So what put this once-dominant sport on the slide?
