About this listen
The answers lie deep in Italy's cultural heritage, in historic links between art and machine going back to Leonardo da Vinci. In Superveloce, Peter Grimsdale traces a century of Italian design genius and the rise of its great automotive dynasties, Ferrari, Farina, Maserati and Fiat's Agnellis. We see the lives of fiercely charismatic and competitive drivers like Ascari, Campari and Nuvolari, and explore the mystery of how a nation that never had an industrial revolution like Britain and France set standards of design innovation that other nations struggled to match.
Grimsdale takes the reader on a journey of discovery through Italian history, design, speed and beautiful, beautiful cars.
