With its cranked wing & vulture-like looks the Junkers Ju 87 Stuka dive-bomber came to symbolise the terror of the German Blitzkrieg.

In the early years of the Second World War the Ju 87 lived up to its fearsome reputation, but it eventually met its match when pitted against more modern adversaries.

Supported by a comprehensive selection of photographs & technical drawings, Jonathan Falconer describes the design, construction & operation of the feared Stuka, which saw frontline action wherever the German Army went from Norway, western Europe & Russia, to North Africa.

The McLaren MP4/4 is the iconic Honda V6 turbo-powered F1 car built by McLaren for the 1988 grand prix season, driven by Ayrton Senna & Alain Prost.

Remarkably, the car won all but one race during 1988, & took McLarens then-new recruit Senna to his first Drivers World Championship after a season-long battle with team-mate Prost.

McLaren achieved an astonishing 10 one two finishes with the car, & suffered only two car-related retirements during the season.

The MP4/4 is still statistically the most dominant F1 car ever built. Ironically, the fact that McLaren was already an enormously successful & well-resourced team prior to 1988 has led to the assumption that producing another winning car in the form of the MP4/4 was simply business as usual.

The truth is rather different, with many challenges along the way, mistakes to resolve &, as ever in motor racing, an element of luck, all playing a part in the MP4/4s extraordinary success.
