Synopsis

At 23, James Toseland was the youngest ever winner of the World Superbike Championship, but Toseland's success has been driven by tragedy. Using racing as a release, he became a fearless daredevil, but there was more turmoil to come - a career of dramatic crashes and a collision which left James seriously injured and his team-mate dead.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

The youngest ever World Superbike Champion at 23, James Toseland rocketed into a league of biking legends. Now, after seven success-filled years in Superbikes, James is ready to make the leap into MotoGP. On the bike, James’s daredevil attitude has led to tremendous success and some horrific crashes in equal measure. Off the bike, James has overcome family tragedy, trained as a classical pianist, performed as a member of the aptly named band Crash, and was crowned Cosmopolitan centrefold of the year.

But racing is, and will always be, his overriding passion.

James’s adrenalin-fuelled tale is a story of genius, courage and an overwhelming desire to win.
