The Racing
Driver : The Theory and Practice of Fast Driving
- Also from the UK
Denis Jenkinson / Paperback / Published August 1997
Denis Jenkinson's classic "The Racing Driver" was first
published in 1959 and has remained a must-have for any racing library.
Over thirty years later this book is highly valued for its historical
perspective and views into the personalities of men who today seem
larger than life. Jenkinson is the only person who covered thousands
of miles as a racing passenger with the most famous Grand Prix drivers
of the fifties, including Stirling Moss, Juan Manual Fangio, and Mike
Hawthorn.
This new release of "The Racing Driver" contains new
material, including a new preface by the author himself. The foreword
is by Stirling Moss, who won the 1955 Mille Miglia with Jenkinson at
his side.
In addition there are two new appendices. One is a discussion between
the author and Ayrton Senna about the psychological attributes of the
modern race driver. Senna talks about the tension, stress and
anticipation leading up to a race and what it feels like on the track
competing for the checkered flag.
The other appendix is a tribute to Jenkinson by Doug Nye, a close
friend and author who recognizes Jenkinson's style both as a writer
and a unique character. |
