About this listen
This audiobook features a foreword read by Guenther Steiner.
For the drivers, it's the millions of dollars spent for a shot at making it to the top, with the real possibility of being washed-up before they even finish school. It's the violent physical forces inherent in racing the fastest cars, with cockpit temperatures soaring to 60 degrees Celsius. And it's the gruelling mental vice-like squeeze in constant international travel, celebrity and expectation for superhuman results from yourself, your team, and almost a billion people who watch the sport across the planet.
For the teams, it's a 24/7 commitment and a multi-billion-dollar spend to design, manufacture, and race two cars around the globe every two weeks; with exceptional results demanded from all areas of these well-oiled, precision operations - be they technical, mechanical, commercial, and logistics. Don't deliver? You're out, and the voracious beast rolls on.
Stewart Bell, who has covered the sport for more than 20 years, takes you behind the scenes - and gives you the full picture of what it's like to be inside the sport, well beyond what you might have seen on Netflix's blockbuster show: Formula 1: Drive To Survive.
