About this title

Synopsis

This candid insight into motor racing spans 1905 to the present day. Author Louis Stanley was the owner of the BRM racing team from the late 1950s through the late 1970s, and was also instrumental in instituting stricter safety codes and developing the idea mobile emergency medical units at tracks. Of course, his duties as a team owner also brought him in direct contact with many of the greatest drivers and race personalities ever. Never one to pull punches, Stanley's candid recollections are illustrated with more than 350 photographs from his personal collection, and span not only his Grand Prix involvement, but also his role at major venues like Indianapolis and Le Mans. Includes an introduction by Formula 1 legend Niki Lauda.
