Grand Prix racing is motorsport in its most highly evolved form. It is the best drivers on the most challenging circuits racing the most technologically advanced cars in the world. There is no greater prestige in auto racing than to be Formula One world champion. Though two Americans have been World Champions, Phil Hill and Mario Andretti, America's long, rich history of Grand Prix competition is sometimes forgotten. America hosted international Grand Prix events as far back as 1908, and some of this country's greatest early drivers - men like David Bruce-Brown, Ralph DePalma, Barney Oldfield, and Ralph Mulford - matched skills and daring with Europe's best on high-speed courses in Savanna, Milwaukee, San Francisco, and Santa Monica.
