Formula: how cheats, geniuses and speed.. UA - Joshua Robinson, Jonathan Cleg
This is a story about speed, the thirst for victory, ingenuity and fearlessness. And also about big money, politics and scandals. It is a dynamic account of how Formula 1 conquered the world, balancing between the rules. The authors will show you what goes on behind the scenes of the competition and share stories about the successes and failures of top athletes and team owners. What dramatic events unfolded on and off the track? How did car racing turn into a global reality show? Why does the willingness of teams to do anything to win often work against them? How did F1 find itself on the brink of self-destruction due to scandals and fraud, and what ultimately saved it? The authors sought answers to these questions together with Formula 1 legends: Christian Horner, Luca di Montezemolo, Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen and many others. The book will be interesting not only for motor racing enthusiasts, as it also discusses rivalry, excitement and creative interpretation of the rules. Above all, it is about people who are changing the world.
