This stylized poster featuring poster advertising the 1982 Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach features the Brabham BT49 taking a corner at full speed. The Long Beach GP was a dramatic race that year, won by Niki Lauda in his comeback to F1, marking his first win for McLaren, with Keke Rosberg second; it featured surprise pole from Andrea de Cesaris' Alfa Romeo, a disqualified Gilles Villeneuve for a controversial rear wing, and a brief appearance by Mario Andretti filling in for Williams, all while Ferrari pushed design limits with a unique double rear wing. Overall, this poster faithfully captures the sense of speed and excitement that has come to be associated with this historic race event.Collection
