Why was the Avus built? What have been the motoring highlights of the track? Why was the length of the circuit adjusted many times? These and more questions are answered by Axel Kirchner in his great chronicle about the legendary circuit in the very heart of Berlin. It is a fascinating journey into the past with a great sense of detail to relive a long forgotten motorsports era.
Great footage of Rudolf Caracciola, the popular Silver Arrows of Auto Union and Mercedes-Benz, speed records – this book will draw attention just like the Avus did.
