Formula 1, one of whose stages is hosted in Baku, is celebrating its 75th anniversary.
The very first Formula 1 race was held in 1950 in Silverstone, England, Idman.biz reports.
The inaugural World Championship season consisted of seven races, marking the beginning of a dramatic and innovation-filled journey in motorsport history. This season laid the groundwork for what would become a global racing phenomenon.
To commemorate the 75th jubilee, Formula 1 has released color-restored historical photos capturing the spirit and scenes of that inaugural event.
A team of experts used modern colorization techniques to revive images from that historic day, particularly highlighting Italian driver Giuseppe "Nino" Farina's victory behind the wheel of an Alfa Romeo.
These restored visuals offer fans a vivid glimpse into the roots of Formula 1, linking the sport’s thrilling past to its dynamic present.
