Abstract
With global appeal, large commercial and mediated interest and splashes of glamour, motor-racing operates on the knife-edge of risk versus reward for its competitors. With the origins of motor-racing dating back to the 1890s, the elite contemporary structure of Formula One is a volatile mix of hi- technology, breakneck speeds and risk-taking bravado as drivers race their expensive hybrid rocket cars around the globe.
