Many of the newer motorsport magazines tend to be dominated by Formula 1 with perhaps a small amount of coverage of the World Rally Championship or the American ChampCar series. Indeed some now even appear to exploit the high profile of F1 and treat the sport as some sort of 4-wheeled soap opera.

Autosport is a long established motor sport title and is extremely thorough in its coverage of all levels of motor sport in Britain. This is not to say Formula 1 is ignored, it certainly is not. And respected motor sport journalists such as Mark Hughes and Nigel Roebuck contribute interesting articles to the magazine. The magazine is not only interested in the drivers within Formula 1 however and thorough technical updates are given as cars are given minor chnages race to race. The reasons for these changes is given in terms understandable to a lay person.

In addition to Formula 1 the feeder single seater championships such as Formula 3 are well covered. But it is not only single seaters which get coverage. The sports car championships and touring cars get full coverage as does the World Rally Championship withy previews, reviews and leading articles on the progression of these championships.

The magazine carries full coverage of all main motor sport event held throughout the UK each weekend. At £2.60 every week Autosport can run out a costly magazine to be every week and the discerning buyer may choose to be selective on which editions he or she chooses to buy. Alternatively much of the main covergae and news can be found on Autosports execellent web site at www.autosport.com.
