An engaging read that’s full of amusing stories from the Formula 1 paddock over the past 30 years. Very much a people book, it’s packed with interest and insight into the whole cast of Formula 1, from World Champions to mechanics.

Ayrton Senna features large in her story. She became close to the great Brazilian driver and his family. Other great drivers she worked with, and got to know well, include Michael Schumacher, Nelson Piquet and Elio de Angelis.

Described as ‘Revealing and heart-wrenching’ by The Times of London, the e-book, to us at Motoring World, is captivating, presenting another human angle of motoring. It makes attention-holding reading.
