F1 magazine subscription

What do you think is the best magazine subscription for f1? Im choosing between Autosport and F1 Racing. I think autosport is a weekly subscription but its $180 for 51 issues, so thats a years worth. F1 racing is $80 for 12 months.

I also heard that these magazines are biased? Well, since MS is out, they wont be biased against him anymore.

I'm not familiar with Autosport. I only tolerate F1 racing because of the nice photography and some of the articles, but the editorial, previews and features that involve opinion make me want to toss it every time I get it. But it does give you more information than what you find on TV and the net.

autosport is weekly, so its more up to date and its got more insight. However it covers other forms of motorsports, besides f1. F1 racing on the other hand has some interesting features, and good photography, but their info is usually out of date.

i'd suggest autosport.

It's a mag put together by the Red Bull staff issued and printed during race weekends. They would be usually distributed around the paddock, with a few hundred copies handed out by hotties near the RB merchandise truck. It has some insider info, but mostly lighter side humor... its pretty good. This year, you can subscribe for a PDF version.

I am already subscribed to Autosport... i like it very much. I dont think they are biased at all. They get technical with some cars and inform you of a lot of info you wouldnt get anywhere else. Along with the subscription, you also get subscribed to their website.. which also allows you to access their FORIX site, which has tons and tons of info on all past and upcoming Formula 1 seasons and races. They compare all the technical aspects of every car.. in ever race.. highly recommended
