LEWIS HAMILTONDAS SCHILLERNDE PORTRÄT DER FORMEL-1-LEGENDEDie Erfolge von Lewis Hamilton lassen sich nur in Superlativen messen!Er hat sich so viele WM-Titel wie Michael Schumacher erkämpft und die meisten Grand-Prix-Siege der Geschichte eingefahren. Mit gerade einmal 23 Jahren gewann er bereits den ersten Weltmeistertitel. Durch seinen riskanten und gleichzeitig überlegenen Fahrstil lockt er bei Formel-1-Übertragungen regelmäßig Millionen vor die Bildschirme, die gebannt seinen Manövern folgen.Doch wer ist Lewis Hamilton wirklich? Der bekannte englische Sportjournalist und Buchautor Frank Worrall zeichnet das packende Porträt eines faszinierenden Formel-1-Piloten, der zum großen Vorbild für unzählige Jugendliche wurde, da er in unerschütterlichem Glauben an sich selbst aus bescheidenen Verhältnissen zum Superstar aufstieg. Während er auf der Rennstrecke Runde um Runde in atemberaubendem Tempo zurücklegt, engagiert er sich privat bei Anti-Rassismus-Demonstrationen und im karitativen Bereich.Die spannende Biografie zeichnet ein differenziertes Bild Hamiltons sowohl auf wie neben der Strecke, punktet mit souveränem Fachwissen und lässt die Herzen der Formel-1-Fans höherschlagen.

Tre skandinaviske racerkørere sigtede højt og ambitiøst. De ville i F1 - men kom de det og hvordan? Ole, Reine og Ronnie var fortroppen for nutidens store stjerner Jan Magnussen og Tom Kristensen.De tre talenter var anden generation af formelracerkørere, der gjorde sig internationalt, men de var reelt det første kuld med ambitioner om og mulighed for at slutte sig til de store tenorer – F1-stjernerne.Midlet mod målet var ”racerbilernes liggestole” alias formelbilerne. Spektakulære og fremmedartede og med utopiske fartressourcer. Men også med en ildevarslende ringe sikkerhed. I tiden hvor sex var sikkert men racing var farligt – dødsensfarligt. I 1960’erne var tabstallet over 90 kørere om året!Formelkørerne i F3 også kaldet racersigøjnerne levede spartansk og med mange afsavn. De førte en nomadetilværelse i telt eller varevogn. De rejste fra bane til bane i ugens hverdage og kørte så race i weekenden og åndede lettet ud, når de havde ”overlevet” løbet.På legendariske og nu glemte baner som Roskilde Ring, Brno, Chrystal Palace, Montjuich, Montlhéry, Rouen, Schleiz og Vila Real. Baner på landeveje, i byer, i parker eller i lufthavne. Fra nord til syd – fra Finland til Sicilien og på baner i vest som i øst bag ”jerntæppet”.Bogen er en tredobbelt biografi ”fra vugge til grav” med hovedvægten på de vilde år i formel 3, hvor de tre kørte skulder mod skulder – dokumenteret af over 300 farve og sort/ hvide fotos fra dengang. Desuden apendix over samtidens konkurrenter (Emerson Fittipaldi, Niki Lauda, James Hunt m.fl.), samt alle banerne og bilerne.Forordet er skrevet af en dengang ung ukendt racerkører, der var dybt fascineret af racing. Entusiastiske Thorkild Thyrring har som bekendt selv været turen igennem, men husker de tre og tiden levende og intenst, som var det i går!

At over 230 kilometers an hour, she races against boys and girls from all over the world. Fifteen-year-old Alba Hurup Larsen has been titled the fastest girl in the world in motorsport for her age by Ferrari and the international governing body of motorsport, the FIA. Alba is training toward one goal: Becoming the first woman ever to win Formula 1. Will she succeed? And what will it take to be number one? In THE FASTEST GIRL IN THE WORLD Alba talks about her life on and off the racetrack: About putting on the helmet and putting the pedal to the metal. But also about the challenges and thoughts that can arise behind the wheel. And about remembering her school, her friends, and her family on her way to the winner’s podium.And meet one of the best racing drivers of all time too—Jan Magnussen, as well as the former boxing world champion, Mikkel Kessler, who both share important advice and experience on training and courage and talk about what it takes to become the best in the world.The book also features “Your guide to becoming a star,” if you dream of reaching the top in your sport.For children and young people.

Denne bog er ikke en egentlig opfølgning af Helte-bøgerne – og så alligevel. Bogens kørere i standard, sport og formelbiler er også bemærkelsesværdige talenter som klarede sig flot med sejre og mesterskaber, men aldrig nåede helt til tops i den internationale elite som Formel 1 eller i sportsprototyper. De havde talentet men flere omstændigheder gjorde at drømmen ikke blev indfriet.Handlingen udspiller sig fra den tidligste i 1950’erne til de sidste i 1990’erne, hvilket beskriver fire forskellige årtier og epoker i racing. Fra løb på den første lille nationale sløjfe i Roskilde til de store internationale Grand Prix baner i Europa som Holland, Tyskland, England forude de nordiske baner i Sverige og Finland.Nogle af bogens navne havde en kort karriere, mens andre ofrede alt og forfulgte lykken gennem flere årtier, inden de måtte kaste håndklædet i ringen. De måtte klare sig igennem på lavbudget og var alle afhængige af venner og bekendtes frivillige og ulønnede hjælp og bistand, i hård og ubarmhjertig kamp mod de professionelle topteams. De danske racersigøjnere levede yderst spartansk og var ikke for fine til at rode skraldespande og containere igennem på de store baner for at skaffe sig brugte dæk og dele.De havde alle en vis/stor succes gennem karrieren og høstede da også mesterskaber som DM og NM – og en enkelt endda et uhørt EM i talenternes rugeklasse. Fælles for næsten alle i denne historie er at de med den rigtige opbakning og økonomi samt held og timing kunne være steget helt op i kongeklasserne som Formel 1 eller sportsprototyperne. Bogen beskriver de forskellige grunde til at de ikke nåede målet.Den giver et grundigt indblik i kørernes opvækst, karrieren på banerne og tiden efter racing. Den beskriver den utrolige indsats og flid (commitment) der blev lagt for dagen – samt ikke mindst alle de afsavn de måtte lide undervejs. Bogens billedside omfatter 650 fotos fra både private som professionelle pressefotografer – hvor flere pryder som hel eller dobbeltsider. Igen et perfekt layout.Foruden de ni hovedkapitler findes også et kapitel om de konkurrenter de kæmpede imod – og som de ofte vandt over. Navne der senere alle havnede eller nåede helt til tops i Formel 1, som Fittipaldi, Hunt, Senna og Häkkinen. Her følger de glemte navne, uheldige helte eller tabte talenter. Fælles for dem er, at vi aldrig så deres potentiale fuldt indfriet. Her er de i kronologisk rækkefølge:Andreas Geil startede sent som 53-årig og var svær at bedømme, men hans indsats i sporten som generøs mæcen for yngre talenter og som den utrættelige drivkraft bar Ringen er bemærkelsesværdig. Frits Møller var et stort talent i sportsvogn som derefter prøvede FJ men i forkert forældet biltype for så at slutte med de små vilde Mini Cooper og Fiat Abarth. Søren Nøhr brød igennem i sit allerførste race og det i formelbil Lotus FJ. Hans lovende karriere blev ultrakort grundet private tragiske omstændigheder.Jan Heggov viste speed fra første færd og blev mester i Mini Cooper i anden sæson og fortsatte derefter i F3 mod Nordens bedste på lige fod.Karsten Ree forsøgte sig sporadisk i FF i de unge år inden en længere tvungen pause af økonomiske årsager. Siden en af landets største mæcener i sporten.Henrik Spellerberg havde en karriere i gokart inden han gjorde et stærkt comeback i FF nationalt og derefter i international F3.Jesper Villumsen forfulgte fra starten formelsporet med succes i et par årtier, men en medfødt øjenfejl forhindrede hans internationale succes.Henrik M. Larsen gjorde lynkarriere i FF 1600, FF 2000 og ikke mindst Opel Lotus i EM-regi men heldet svigtede i de afgørende omgange. Siden også en flot karriere i standardbiler.Svend S. Hansen viste stort talent i FF 1600 og blev landets første europamester. Siden blev F3 forsøgt på lavbudget i udlandet inden han returnerede til FF med ny succes. Kryptisk omtalt som 10'eren.

Behind the exhilarating speed and radiant victories of Formula 1 lies a more subtle, often unseen realm. The Dark Side Behind the Wheel peels back the layers, revealing the intricate tapestry of emotions, aspirations, and vulnerabilities that each racer carries. Amidst the powerful resonance of engines, quieter personal battles wage, often hidden from the world. This book gracefully navigates the delicate balance of triumph and tribulation, highlighting the deep emotional currents these athletes navigate. From confronting the shadows of predecessors to the solitude that can shadow fame, it paints an intimate picture of their innermost journeys. As we turn each page, we're reminded that beyond the fierce competition and thrilling speeds, lies the poignant, raw, and beautifully human story of each individual behind the wheel.

Rino Malzoni produced his first sports coupé back in 1962. After many modifications, this car was produced in small series in 1964, laying the foundation for the worldwide success of the Puma brand. Today we can look back on more than 20 Puma models and more than 24,000 Puma vehicles.Together with Vemag, the cars were built between 1962 and 1967 using DKW technology. In 1968, the Volkswagen-based Puma was built and in 1970, Rino Malzoni, together with Britinho, started to develop the Puma with GM technology. The Puma GTB was the most expensive car available in Brazil for over 10 years.Puma cars were not only built in Sao Paulo. In 1973, the coupé was modified to fit a right-hand drive VW Beetle chassis. In South Africa, the Puma was produced in small numbers between 1973 and 2019.This book tells the story of the Puma sports car brand in Brazil, provides information on export activities to USA, Canada, Europe and Japan, and covers production activities in South Africa.

Motor Sport:"He captures the true spirit of a nation's grass roots""A refreshing antidote to bland paeans about the overly familiar""He makes adversity sound vaguely appealing"Total Kit Car:"an enthralling read""Buy this book if you are into the underdog and tales of derring-do""I found it gripped me. I picked it up for a five minute 'flick through' and I couldn't put it down""Get it, read, enjoy what is a great tale about proper club motorsport"Lowflying:"I fell for Dave Roberts' prose before I'd even finished page three""It is very hard to put down""I recommend this book very highly to anyone who enjoys club motor sport"Dave Roberts started circuit racing at the age of 50, feeling like a bumbling overweight bee amid a swarm of angry hornets. Although he began to learn, haphazardly, how to become slightly more credible as a racer, even overtaking another car now and then, the pursuit of prizes was never at the top of the list of priorities. In fact, just arriving at the track with a working race car was often a cause for celebration.Dave is no Hamilton or Verstappen, a state of affairs for which he gives thanks. Some people believe winning is everything; some think of motorsport as being just some cars going round and round making a noise. In between we find this defiantly unprofessional memoir, which speaks most of all about the humour and fun of it all.

"WALL STREET JOURNAL reporters and authors of THE CLUB, Joshua Robinson and Jonathan Clegg tell the riveting saga of how Formula 1 broke through in America, detailing the eclectic culture of racing obsessives, glamorous settings, gearheads, engineering geniuses, dashing racers, and bitter rivalries that have made F1 the world's fastest growing sport. For decades in America, car racing meant NASCAR, and to a lesser extent IndyCar, with Formula 1-the wealthiest racing league in the world-a distant third. Fast forward to 2023, and F1 has emerged at the front of the pack powered by a passionate yet nascent American fanbase. The F1 juggernaut has arrived, but this checkered flag was far from inevitable. In THE FORMULA, WALL STREET JOURNAL reporters Joshua Robinson and Jonathan Clegg tell the epic story of how F1 saved itself from collapse and finally conquered America through guile, fearlessness, and above all, reinvention. With fast cars, big money, glamorous locales, and beautiful people as the backdrop, THE FORMULA reveals how F1's sudden arrival in the US was actually decades in the making, a product of the sport's near-constant state of transformation and experimentation. Bringing unique insight and access to F1's most storied teams and personalities-from Ferrari to Bernie Ecclestone to Christian Horner to Lewis Hamilton-THE FORMULA offers a riveting portrait of the drivers, corporations, cars, rivalries, and audacious gambles that have shaped the sport for half a century. The end result is a high-octane history of how modern F1 racing came to be-the first book to tell the story of the outrageous successes and spectacular crashes that led F1 to this extraordinary yet precarious moment. More than just a sports story, THE FORMULA is the tale of a disrupter that broke into the crowded American sports marketplace and claimed its place through cash, personality, and a new understanding of what a sport needs to be in the age of wall-to-wall entertainment"--
