This book presents in-depth interviews with 24 ‘motor sport greats’, all characters with a story to tell. The idea was to get them to suggest their favorite pub or restaurant for a good meal and a half-decent bottle, and gently prod them into opening up their memories and opinions with frank and honest insights about themselves, about the people they’d known and worked with, and about the people they’d raced against. The result is a compelling read, beautifully crafted by one of Britain’s top motor sport writers.
